 THIS WEEK ON AVENGERS ASSEMBLED

 

LOCAL & WORLD NEWS

• An Asgardian diplomat is scheduled to speak to the UN Assembly next week. There's much rumor in diplomatic circles about the dark-haired Asgardian, so svelte and charming, and his ties to some of the highest circles of power in the US, UK, Russia, and China.
• There will be a charity ball to celebrate the completion of repairs on the city's major infrastructure. Proceeds will go to victims of the Chitauri invasion.
• The buildings themselves are being repaired at a much slower pace. Some streets remain closed in the area around Stark Tower which bore the brunt of the Chitauri attack due to the instability of the buildings under repair.
• Peter, Vance, and Janet stopped a bank robbery and reclaimed Chitauri weaponry which had not been accounted for after the invasion. Only one of them blew up. On accident, Vance says.
• There's a Bifrost gateway in Valhalla, NY.

 

WATCHERS

• Schmidt has taken full and lawful posession of SHIELD with the backing of the WSC.
• JARVIS, having compared personnel lists from before the Chitauri invasion to those now and calculated for recent transfers and terminations, suggests that there are approximately 27 agents under SHIELD control who can be considered hostages. Included in that number is Erik Selvig.
• Steve and Pietro blew up a weapons depot.
• Natasha and Clint left for Russia to start finding out who the WSC so we can tell them to FIND A NEW DIRECTOR, WTF GUYS.
• Stark dropped off a thing to help erase SHIELD's files. Schmidt got mad and kicked him around a little then told him that they could keep blowing up weapons depots as much as they want as long as they leave Schmidt and HQ alone. So the Avengers immediately started planning to poke around at HQ AND reclaim all the weapons.
• PS: SHIELD had off-site data backups that Schmidt now controls.
• PPS: Stark has some data from Schmidt which Schmidt claims to be data SHIELD didn't want released to the Avengers.

 

A PROBLEM LIKE AMORA

• Amora maybe turned her bracelet invisible after an attempt by Vance and Vision to grab it failed. Stark and Banner are working on magic-detectors.

 

Scene ideas:

* Destroy RECLAIM SHIELD's weapon stockpiles! HYDRA isn't letting go of them easily, but we're moving them into, uh, SI storage for the interim. Stark will almost certainly probably give them back later maybe.

* JUST WHO IS THE WSC ANYWAY.

* There are more Chitauri weapons out there!

 

Avengers Plans:

* Jan will be off-camming her adventures into SHIELD HQ. She will be able to get in and get out without getting caught, but possibly not without detection. Update once she talks to Schmidt!

* Spider-Man, are you still trying to sneak in? If so, you may want to talk to Schmidt.

* Find out who doesn't get along with HYDRA or SHIELD and see if they are taking contracts.

* Get a solid plan in place where that distraction & rescue is concerned.

 

Updates: If you have anything to go in next week's update, or have any questions about this update, poke me on Stark!

SHIELD Update Update Update

[aa_stark]

Stark changed his mind. Please don't do anything to piss Schmidt off. Check out those off-site weapons caches and work on getting Jan in unseen but he's going to try going back in and seeing what else we can get from Schmidt for leaving him alone. Natasha thinks he sold too cheaply.
