Video @Dr.Morbius

[doesnotsparkle]

[ The video opens to a messy head of black hair and red eyes with a slight glow. The skin is far to pale made worse by that dark hair, and the horrible goatee he has. What is it with super scientists and goatees? Behind the face is clearly a lab of some kind, He was in the hospital but on break.

He took a breath before smiling, trying to hide his teeth, which was useless as the fangs were visable as soon as he started speaking. ]

Good evening to everyone listening. My name is doctor Michael Morbius, maybe some of you know me, or of me. [ He hopes not, seriously. Last thing he wanted was people screaming about his body count.] I am not here as much to ask for help, I can figure most things here out myself. I am addressing everyone to more see has anyone found a common link between us who are brought here?

[ Please dont all be monsters, mmmkay?

He spoke on then in his Grecian accent.]

If their is already a group investigating this, please let me know. I am merely curious.

[David waves off the thank you. He owed it. More than that, Michael had discussed some ideas of David maybe helping him out.]

Technically all humans live off of blood. You just live off of some other than your own. Consider it a medical condition.

[doesnotsparkle]

It is indeed a medical, well more scientific condition.

[ he was distracted by the waitress coming over again, ordering coffee. Nothing more, yet. The lady waiting for David's order.]

So, have you considered working a second job?

[helpdesk_hero]

[David orders a short stack meal and when the woman walks off he nods.]

I have. But I shouldn’t. I already work too hard and am tied up in some investigations. I’ve been told I should try doing something ‘fun’ and ‘relaxing.’

[Hank hadn’t known him well to suggest that. At the same time, there was what he had done with Tommy when they met again. That had been nice. The memory of spending time swapping stories and listening with disbelief actually made him smile a bit.]

[doesnotsparkle]

[ Michael watched the waitress leave until it was a safe distance before nodding some.]

And do you think you would actually do that? Or maybe simply switch feilds, with Hank McCoy's knowledge you are wasted in technical support. You could be a great help. Though, you have me curious about your mention of investitions.

[helpdesk_hero]

Have fun? I trained under Scott Summers. I don’t know that fun is anything I learned. But yeah, I hate Tech support. The only positive of it is it helped me make a friend I would otherwise never have met. And I suppose that got me in with the Young Avengers. Frankly I would rather work at the hospital.

[Helping people had always been more his speed. As for the questions, he doesn’t answer, just sips his coffee. ]

[doesnotsparkle]

Ahh, Summers. Enough said.

[ Did he know Scott? Only in passing, but enough to know he was a stick in the mud. ]

If you are truly interested in it, despite just arriving myself, I will speak to someone at the hospital for you. Figuring out the rest is on you, however.

[ the waitress returned with David's food and Michaels coffee, he didn't add anything, simply taking a drink from the black coffee. ]

[helpdesk_hero]

[David looks at Morbius in shock. The man would do that for him?]

I would appreciate that. A lot. I hate doing things that don’t matter anymore. For a while I accepted it. But I... I want to be more than that.

[doesnotsparkle]

[ Meanwhile, he just sipped at his coffee. ]

Consider it done, young friend, you simply know when I should recommend you to my boss. We will have you making a difference in no time.

[helpdesk_hero]

Whenever you can. I won’t be a janitor, though. If you want, I can put together my list of qualifications.

[Freedom from the worst job ever? Score.]

[doesnotsparkle]

I would not allow that to happen.

[ well maybe to Spiderman.]

That would be most helpful, just send me a message with it when you make it. Simply handled.

[helpdesk_hero]

[David nods. That sounds reasonable.]

That sounds fair. I just wish I could offer you something as thanks. My parents were big on proper displays of gratitude. 

[doesnotsparkle]

You've been kind, that alone is more than enough.

[ David had not called him derogatory vampire names, or made fun of his appearance. It was a rarity one he appreciated. ]

[helpdesk_hero]

[David has gone to school with a boy made of stone, women made of mercury and crystal, and a kid who was a lizard. And those were some of He more normal ones. Appearances are nothing.]

Perhaps we have different definitions of kind. 

[doesnotsparkle]

Perhaps so, but for now it is fine.

[ He replied before taking a drink of his coffee. ]

[helpdesk_hero]

For now it is functional. Still...

[David frowns at his coffee, as if it did t satisfy. Or, more likely, like it didn’t have the answers he wanted.]

How about we say I owe you a favor so that my conscience can rest easier?
