Reply Subj: That sounds like too much math. Posted: Sat Jan 14, 2017 at 11:53:32 pm EST (Viewed 983 times) | |||||||
Quote: Quote: 1. VV would report the "contact" to her employer, the Hooded Hood.Quote: Quote: 2. He would already know. He would not mind.Quote: Lara wouldn't mind if the Hooded Hood knew, either. She never meant the meeting to be secret. The whole cloak-and-dagger part was to avoid embarrassing VV in front of all of those 2nd rate villains at the signup. That would have made VV fight with her to save face, which wasn't the goal.Vicki's relationships with supervillains are very controlled. She uses sexuality as part of her arsenal, but very rarely with other villains. The exeption is "boss level" villains - she's a "full service" kind of right hand hench and she does seem to go for the leader types. The Hooded Hood is the only eligible archvillain she's worked for who hasn't slept with her. You're probably right about VV's gender preference too, but she has slept with women (incuding CSFB!'s mom Meggan Foxxxx, available on video, from the days when VV had a secret ID that worked in adult entertainment). But then, she's had sex with quite a lot of ugly old men she wasn't that into either. Quote: Quote: 3. VV has not really had a proper conversation with a superhero since Josh Clement.Quote: Lara wouldn't remember that. I'm not sure it was ever that known. It was something poster-DBS alluded to but I don't remember if he ever actually gave us the talk "on-screen". I'll ask Rhiannon. Mind you, DBS was the guy who managed to convince Anvil Man to go for a pint with him. Quote: She is very sensitive, though, and the short time she was around VV, she saw someone who had to put up with a lot of idiots, and had no one to really talk to. Lara found that to be sad, and decided to do something about it.VV's somewhat outdated character description linked off the Who's Who says: VelcroVixen (Field Leader) But that really doesn't give us much background on one of the very few characters who run around holding their own amongst a bunch of much more powerful superhumans and nonhumans (Trickshot is possibly the nearest comparator). After all this time she doesn't really have an origin (I valuely recall that she may have been raised in the orphanage of the sinister Little Sisters of Discipline like Lisa and Dr Moo but I may be wrong). Quote: Also, as I've said before, Lara is a firm believer in grey area. She would be the first to say that you never know what path VV's life took that brought her to this point, and it doesn't mean she's inherently evil. Lara believes if things were different in her life, she could be in the same place.Lara might also wish to speculate what the Hooded Hood may have altered in Vicki's past to arrange the circumstances that forged VV into such an effective instrument for his purposes. Quote: Quote: 4. Hatman probably wouldn't mind that Lara was "trying to reform" VV (even Jarvis tried, though they just ended up in bed).Quote: I don't expect that Hatman will be annoyed at Lara offering friendship with VV except for two things: Lara doesn't really intend to change VV, only to offer friendship and maybe set a positive example. He might object to her privately though, if he feels like she's doing it all wrong or if he's afraid she's being used.Jay just can't stop trying to reform people. It worked with Silicone Sally and Zvestri Zdrugo. It probably wouldn't occur to him that Lara might associate with VV and not try to reform her. Quote: I believe Mac Fleetwood would agree more with Lara's style, because she's refusing to judge.Mac is perhaps better aware of the number of people that VelcroVixen has harmed or killed (although she received a legal amnesty after the Parody War so isn't actually wanted for crimes right now), so he might be more cautious of her. He wouldn't throw her out (nor could he, physically) and he would listen to her, but Lara comes to the conversation with less unpleasant back-history. Quote: Quote: 5. Of the present team, I'd think G-Eyed (fairly anti-Hood because of the whole Laurie thing etc.) and Nats might be the ones who'd see any friendship as a "betrayal". Yuki might want to conduct some kind of security evaulation, which might not go down well with Lara.Quote: Yuki might rarely skip the evaluation just because Lara was the one who reached out first (if VV reached out first, she might be incredibly suspicious). She trusts Lara's judgement, and failing that, she knows Lara is not someone a supervillain would want to piss off. Also, it's not like VV will want to hang around the Lair Mansion while Lara isn't around, and have to deal with the supposed self-righteousness of some of its residents.Yuki might worry about how Lara got the idea to appraoch VV. After all, the Hood yanked Lara across the galaxy to experience the events that prompted Lara's call. I suspect Yuki considers these kinds of things. Quote: Lara would probably tell G-Eyed and Nats to relax and stop worrying so much.Argument follows. Quote: Quote: 6. If the relationship does head into shipping territory, FLapjack is more than willing to hold a videocamera.Quote: He doesn't have one right now. Yuki smashed it again.He'd be okay just watching and taking detailed notes. | |||||||
