Heck, some of us sometimes have issues remembering what the basic plot of a given fic is if it hasn't updated in a while, let alone relatively minor details in a given fic. At least with Arthur's fics, I do remember the basics...

Sorry, my last post was posted at 1ish in the morning and I've had a long last couple of days. Now that I'm actually awake, I can actually remember things and just want to say that I'm really enjoying the way this story is turning out. Keep up the good work.

"Did you hear? Someone's posted a picture of a possible new cape at the PRT building?"
Taylor blinked, wondering what they were talking about. Everyone crowded around Laura Adams because she owned a Tinker-tech cell phone.
She stretched out the holoscreen out to about two feet wide. Everyone oohed and ahhed as the bright emerald green figure tried to chase Iron Man around the downtown area.
"You think it is another Tinker? Like Kid Win?" a tall latino boy asked.
"I heard a rumor that Iron Man can replicate his technology," a chubby girl with thick glasses said.
"Yeah, right."
Taylor studied the screen as the Weaver armor flew through its paces. She wondered who Tony put inside of it?
"Come on, let's see what they are saying on the news," someone yelled just as the teacher walked into the room.
"Phones away. Tablets away. It'll be there after class," the short, round and very dour man said as he walked into the classroom.
The whole class groaned.

Can you believe this guy showing up out of nowhere and defeating the Dragonslayers? I hear he had to be rescued from his first use of his flying armor and then in less than two weeks he's taking down big name villains/mercenaries?
Are we sure he isn't actually Armsmuster in disguise or sumthing?

So I've heard through the grapevine that the PRT is looking at budgeting for a big purchase of Tinker tech equipment. I don't have any details so far, but they have a lot of people signing off on it. Even the head of the Parahumans Budget committee in the Senate. So someone has hit the jackpot. Or they've managed to trick an awful lot of people.
Our good boys and gals in chain armor could use an upgrade.

The only Tinker that can mass produce his stuff is Marasme. And he can't do super-tech power armor on that level man. ToommyToom, your source has to be pulling your leg.
And what sort of name is "Guardsman" anyways? Even if we could mass produce armor like that, the villains would just steal some and we'd be right back where we are with the villains outnumbering the heroes.

Well, he called it today. The Simurgh just left orbit on a direct de-orbit towards Australia. Today is looking to be a shitty day indeed.

Taylor's phone started vibrating as she walked to the bus stop. "Hey, Tony."
"Heya, Angel! You need to get to the PRT Headquarters asap. We just got notice that the Simurgh just landed in Canberra, Australia. Looks like she wants to dissolve the government the nasty, evil way," Tony replied. "I'm readying the first three Guardsman Armor."
Taylor looked around as she started power walking down towards the Brockton Downtown Mall, which happened to be a block from the PRT Headquarters. "Get my armor ready. I guess Weaver's debut is going to be a week earlier than we thought."
"Only if your dad agrees," her boss replied, sounding quite the unhappy indeed.
"We already talked it over. While I can't hurt any of them, I can run search and rescue. Especially with the armor."
Tony frowned as all of the waldos worked at their fastest pace. "I really don't like this idea. But it's not my Earth, so not my rules. I'll see you in twenty."
He stepped on top of the scorched, red painted X on the ground.
"Okay boys, time to suit up. I want everything double checked. JARVIS, how much time do we have?"
"Strider will be here to pick up the local volunteers in thirty-eight minutes down on the helipad," the A.I. replied. "Dragon is readying for battle and will be enroute in ten minutes. I will be assisting her on the logistics end."
"Good old JARVIS. Let's see what we can do to give the Simurgh a bit of a headache," Tony said as armor started to be socketed into place.
"Did you hear? Someone's posted a picture of a possible new cape at the PRT building?"

Like I said before, that armor is not a prototype by any definition I've ever heard of. And to use Hero's colors as a Tinker is almost normal these days.
I mean look at Kid Win. No one has been verbally abusing him for using the same colors, right?
I'm more interested in the fact that it appears he can produce knock-offs of his armor. I heard third-hand that the green armor is for a new Ward, but no names have been mentioned. Some sort of hold up on the logistics side.

Taking out the Dragon Slayers (sorry, taking out two of the three Dragonslayers) and then taking down Leet and Uber are all the hallmarks of someone that's been in the game for years.
Which still makes me think he could be someone known, but under a new "style". I mean, I can think of several Tinkers that could possibly make the Iron Man "armor". Heck, I would have said that Squealer might have made something. I mean, it's technically a vehicle too.

From what I've heard, Iron Man is a bit of a rogue. Not as in he's not a hero, but he's cut from a different cloth. He crashed a villain gang down here in New Orleans and rescued one of the local Protectorate. Paradisio said the SSE Protectorate owes Iron Man a lot. She even tried to get his monitor duty punishment lessened.

I finally managed to piece a bit about the time frame from when Iron Man left the ENE's base. A couple of tourists caught Iron Man rocketing straight up at 2:14 PM. The numbers are a bit loose, but he had to be pushing 8 to 12 gravities of accelerationg.
He arrived and started a fight with the New Black Panthers (New Orleans villain group) at 1:32PM.
Which is pretty BS. 17 minutes to go from Massachussets to Louisiana? And that's his normal suit, not some sort of specialty suit.
There is no way that he can pack that much propellent into his armor. He's got to have some parahuman source of flight on top of the armor.

Sorta. Not responding shows they might be 'checking' in the background at human speed levels, rather than instabotting like Dragon could technically do. Also, 'missing' it and the duo blondes throws them off from the real Ward, who was transferred over singly and seperately.

You get banned for trying to figure out if a Cape's changed their gettup? So if Purity started going by a different costume and name, pointingout the blatantly obvious power similarity gets a ban? What about Madcap-Assault stuff?
That's a thing?
Isn't tinker-tech ultra-prohibitively expensive?If those two are Fenja and Menja, I wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Like nobody wasn't going to make that reference.
Also Hansen, I'll give you props for not only Zellos's awesome rant, but including a Jack Slash account.

Reforming villains is why the PRT 'stretches' this rule. They would look really bad if it got out that they "reformed" villains with a list of bodies.
That's a thing?
Yes? Some people would be rich enough to do it anyways.
Nope, two random girls were picked to 'transfer' over to Arcadia. They purposefully keep enough open slots to do this sort of shellgame.
Sure. We'll go with that. I totally meant to do it. /whistles.
As a quick aside that matters nothing really to the story, he's actually a psychic. No shard.

Hopefully not. Crossovers always fall apart when more and more stuff keeps getting brought in, to the point of a mashup instead of a cross. If tons of Marvel things get brought in, I can see this getting really stupid, really quickly.
