You just called it a team, though.

@Source

We call ourselves by many names. Some of them are slightly self-contradictory, but that doesn't necessarily invalidate any of them.

How do most people meet each other?

@Source

Perhaps I misspoke; I mean that having this central location gives us a place to find each other and get to know each other a little more spontaneously. You never know which of the team you're going to see, here, so you gradually get closer to everybody.

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

You have a building, for starters.

@Source

Well, if we didn't, how would any of us know where to meet each other?

<Snipped quote by whizzball1>

Why bother with all the structure, then?

@Source

Structure?

*Shrugs*
Fine by me then. What is this group anyway? Some kind of company?

@Source

A group of friends with powers, united for all sorts of random reasons, but friends to the end.

You said that this place is dangerous.

@Source

Technically, it's usually outside of this place that is dangerous.

I'm okay—it's not that important. Can I bring him with me?

@Source

He is not currently in a good state for that. For now, this is he best place for him. He and his late father are both members of this group, he has always been safest here.

I guess that's believable enough.

@Source

In a mark of exceptional narrative convenience—I.e. when I had nothing else to say—we have come upon our destination. *Opens a door to reveal Shinji on a comfortable bed, with the bodies present standing or sitting depending on their presence in Shinji’s mind* He’s sleeping quite soundly, but if you would like to come closer to ensure his chest is rising, you may do so.

Are you that well-known?

@Source

Reasonably so. Existence is large, and villains and heroes are many; we are but a few, though I fancy we are a grand few. But there are enough villains in Existence to find any group of heroes of note, so it is no surprise that we are often found.

If you're so confident.

@Source

Thank you. We don't pick many of our fights, anyway; I'd be hard pressed to think of many that we instigated. There's a healthy balance between going after bad guys sometimes and going after bad guys so often that they start coming after us to destroy us before we can act.
