[encrypted] The Espionage Squad Job

[leverageintceo]

[Remember that button that popped up before the second part of Kid Quantum's debrief became available? It's back now. Time to scan your fingerprint or input your ridiculous password or scan your eyeball again, at least if you want to see what this is about.]

[On the other side of the security measures, Parker is not in the ventilation system. Instead, she appears to be sitting on a table in one of the many conference rooms on Legion World.]

Since Kid Quantum has made the announcement already: Hi, I'm Payback and I'll be leading the Legion's Espionage Squad. Talk to me if you're interested in joining. I'm not about to draft anyone who doesn't want to be here.

I've got good news: Reinhardt and Brainy are both stable and safely tucked into healing pods. They're both expected to make full recoveries.

I figured I'd get that out there up front. The rest is going to get long, so it's split into parts.

[ooc: People can respond to the two parts of the briefing in the subthreads below.]

So, that last mission was something, wasn't it? Yeah. For those who don't know me, hi. I'm Jason. Nice to meet you.

Anyway. I know everyone's busy with, well. That last mission and stuff. [He's good enough not to say "WE ARE PLOTTING THE OVERTHROW OF THE UP" at least.] But I've got our next camping trip lined up. I think you'll find it cool.

It's underground again, sorry about that. But hear me out. Soola Noona. It was this mine, right? They were harvesting crystals for pies... piezo-whatever. Harvesting crystals to power machines. Put them under pressure and they generate electricity or something like that. [Barry would probably correct him.] Anyway, turns out that these crystals have some unique harmonics or something, they vibrate at soothing frequencies, so about three hundred years ago they shut down the mines, stimulated the crystal growth, and turned the entire mining rig into a vacation retreat.

They've got singing crystals to promote a calm environment, therapeutic hot springs, some untouched cave systems if you want to go spelunking, modern amenities, the works. I think we'll be able to chill out a little there. We can get to know the new people, the new people can learn some about us, and we can do some of the same team building stuff we did the last few times.

And Hiccup, before you ask, the place was designed so that cargo ships could dock to load up, so there's room for Toothless to stretch his wings.
