[ the ourpowers feed starts up with kamala and amadeus in the park. except they’re not kamala and amadeus, but ms. marvel in full costume and amadeus as the hulk, except not the hulk most people might be familiar with. he’s a younger, more confident hulk. they’re sitting on a bench and kamala flashes a peace sign. ]

I’m Amadeus also known as the Totally Awesome Hulk. [he flexes for the camera.] And this here is Ms. Marvel. Back home us and a few others had a team going and while it’s just the two of us so far why not expand?

Hey, so we’ve been thinking about this for a while and we were wondering if anyone would be interested in a kind of . . . off brand guild. No special privileges or anything, sorry. But a guild we can all agree and work together and not be . . . part of the system.

I know we’ve all been there. Been burned by adults and other heroes. Seen what corporations can do to heroes. And I think here, we can start our own guild. Do what’s right because that’s what heroes do. Small or big, up to you.

So what do you say? Want to start the Protectors with us?

My only rules are you can’t have signed up with the guilds already. And if you’re underaged let me know and I can sign whatever notes you need to get out of school.

[ she glances at him. ]

You can do that?

I am 19, you know. Schools usually just want to cover their butts so as long as someone else says they’ll take responsibility it’s fine.

Old. Anyway, if you’re interested, maybe tell us a bit about yourself? Code name, powers, maybe what you’d like to get out of being in a guild like this. We all need to work together.

[ aren't the webs fake? ]

Yeah, we both know you. And that's the idea, it shouldn't be a loaded commitment. Like. We're all heroes and we care about helping others. That should be our first and biggest thing.

We don't want to get swept up in guilds and money, we want to make sure we're for the community first.

[ They're fake as hell but he can still swing with them! ]

I like that. I mean, I'm just a friendly neighbourhood Spider-Man back home, y'know? Community is really important to me.

[ that's true but . . . weird, to her. she's so used to peter being grown up. ]

Then you're welcome. Everyone is.

[tinglesense]

[ he's grown up! 18 is grown up okay! ]

Cool, cool. So...what's the process for joining? Are we gonna do missions like the other guilds or is this kinda, like, you get the ID card but we're not working as a team?

[ He laughs. ]

Sorry, I don't know a lot about how the big guilds work so I'm just throwing things out there.

[bestversion]

The way I saw it, we could have our own mission board. The Guilds pay for their stuff and they definitely discriminate between who gets helped and who doesn't.

But we can keep an eye on our communities and call on each other's help if we need it.

[tinglesense]

Oh, that sounds pretty awesome. Our own mission board. Sending stuff to the group chat to be like, hey, I need help here or, hey, I saw this happening in your area.

Or hero memes.

That's gotta be a thing, right?

[ His Gen Z is showing. ]

[bestversion]

Hero memes are absolutely a thing. The group chat is a good idea too.

[tinglesense]

Yeah, awesome! I gotta learn more about the other heroes here though so my memes aren't just reliant on back home stuff. I'll work on that.

So...is there, like, a clubhouse or a database of what everyone's powers are, or?

[bestversion]

Amadeus will compile something once we finalize our volunteers. It's not a big deal, just to see whose powers and abilities are the best fit for the situation.

[tinglesense]

Right! That makes sense. The Protectors is a good name.

You thought of a slogan or anything yet? Logo?

I mean we don't need any of that, I'm just spitballing.

[bestversion]

No, I haven't gotten that far but I guess we could brainstorm over photoshop.
