Guess Who's Coming to Dinner
Date of Scene: 24 October 2017
Location: Four Freedoms Plaza - Ground Floor
Synopsis: Summary needed
Cast of Characters: She-Hulk, Invisible Woman, Ares




She-Hulk has posed:
    This is worse than being in court defending someone on a murder charge. Normally, Shulkie isn't one to stress. About anything. She has a temper. That is a very different thing from this nervous energy she has going on as she paces the length of the lobby at Four Freedom Plaza. The first time she brought a boy home to meet her father, her Dad felt the need to clean his service weapon at that precise moment while the poor boy sweated profusely. This is so much worse.
    "I think you're going to like him," she says for about the fifty-third time since they came to the lobby about ten minutes ago. "I mean I like it. Obviously. But I think you'll like him. He's great. I think you'r--" She stops herself before she says it again, glancing down at the watch on her wrist. Three more minutes.

Invisible Woman has posed:
    Sue comes out of the elevator with Valeria....who immediately runs over to Shulkie and wants to be picked up. And if Shulkie doesn't...Valaria will CLIMB the big woman. "Hey Jen." She then tilts her head. "Why're you so nervous, Jen? You're pacing like you did something wrong."

Ares has posed:
    Normally John Aaron doesn't make a trip into the city at this time of day. The graveyard shift for the Local Construction Union 477 is when he tends to make the trek in from the outskirts of Freeport, just thirty minutes outside the city itself. But today is a special occasion apparently and he was bidden to make an appearance at 11am here at Four Freedoms plaza. Normally when someone summons him there's much ado about it. An ox or something large is sacrificed, chanting is done, and sometimes even some gladiatorial games are held.
    But Jen was able to conjure him forth with a simple request and lo, he did sally forth.
    The SUV he normally drives was parked off at a car park, left behind as he strolled through the city. He was a man that was tall enough to cut a smooth path through the crowds, footsteps even and precise. A handful of inches over six foot, broad of shoulder and with a stern visage, from afar he looks like the construction worker that he is, at least at first glance.
    But there is something about this John Aaron. And it is perhaps shared in part when his eyes find the two women and a smile lights his features.
    Once near he'll give a nod, "Jennifer." He turns his head towards Sue. "Ms. Richards."

She-Hulk has posed:
    Valeria will not be forced to resort to monkey tactics. Shulkie leans down and scoops her up, spinning her in a circle before settling the munckin on her hip. She gives her a little 'boop' on the nose with her index finger then looks to Sue. "Cause I really, really like this one," she confesses.
    It's a moment later when the doors open to allow the tall man to enter. Shulke's face lights up with a bright smile and she moves to meet him, leaning in for a quick kiss from the side so Valeria doesn't get squished between them. "Thank you for coming, John. This is Sue. Sue, this is John Aaron."

Invisible Woman has posed:
    Valeria squees at being picked up swings her legs as she rests on Jen's body. Sue tilts her head before looks to John as he comes in. "Hi there." She says holding her hand out to him. "As Jen said, I'm Sue Storm-Richards. Never heard of you, John."

Ares has posed:
    "I haven't done anything of remark of late, Sue." He tells he with an easily offered smile even as he rests his hands in his pockets as he accepts the small smooch on the cheek from Jen. He takes a moment to offer her his smile and then looks back to Mrs. Fantastic. "But if I do then you'll be the very first to know." His lips curve faintly into a gentle smile even as he looks across the way towards Jen and the youngster.
    "A lovely child, how old is she?" He turns back to either of them that might have the answer.
