KNOCK KNOCK. The sound of someone rapping, rapping at Eross door.
Groggy from drink and revelry, Starfox stirred. "Ugh, who?"
"It is I, Mentor, your father. Eros, you do nothing but party constantly, drinking and cavorting. When was the last time you did anything productive? Youre a slacker! Im kicking you off Titan until you get a job."
"But Dad, I helped you beat Thanos when he took over!"
"That was years ago."
"I was in the Avengers!"
"What, for two weeks? Now take your brother hes always has a plan to better himself. Its too bad he channels his ambitions so negatively. I wish you had his drive to succeed."
"But Dad, you cant be serious! Hes a homicidal maniac! Hes called the Mad Titan he tried to kill you, he killed our mom he
"Damn it, I never should have named him Thanos. What I was thinking? Now get on your way, and dont come back until I can be proud of you."
"But Dad, you cant kick me out!
Robotic assistants picked up Eros and dragged him away.
"Wait, dad, youre making a mistake! You can be proud of me. Im popular everyone likes me Women, I can get you women I have cool comic book hair
"So ya sees, I just washnt good nuff for the old man. What more does he want from me anyways? He wasssnt even impressed by my hair. How many people have stolen the look? Wolverine, Magneto, an Quickshilver, ta name a few. Doeshnt he know how hard it is to get it point in the back like that? I wonder if Wolverine uses mousse or hairspray? Im an Aquanet man myself <hic>. Give me another beer, barkeep."
"Gee, Mr. Starfox, youve had a lot to drink, and what with your Eternal heritage. You should talk to Mr. Thanos, over there in the corner. Hes an Eternal too."
"Wha? Thanos? Here?"
"Sure, hes a regular."
Thanos approached the bar. "Greetings, brother. So, our illustrious father has kicked you out too? What for? Murder? Worshipping Death? Conspiring against him perhaps? I knew you had it in you, brother."
"No. Thanos, he called me a slacker! I cant come back until I have job. <sob>"
"You need a job, eh? Do you wish to help me take over the universe? It involves traveling back in time where I will-"
"Whatever. Soundss good to me, man. Count me in <hic>."
"Welcome to the past, brother. If I have calculated correctly, and Thanos never calculates incorrectly, a past version of myself sits behind this very door. I would have words with myself."
Thanos threw the door open to reveal Thanos, circa 1974.
"Oh my god, Thanos, did you really used to look like that? That outfit, the purple matches your skin so well, and thank Kronos youve since added pants to your ensemble."
"It was the seventies, everyone dressed that way" Thanos whispered feebly. "I need a drink. Lets get out of here."
"Hey, maybe that kid over there knows a good bar in this town. Hey kid, yeah, you with the guitar, you know a place to get a good drink?"
"You cats from outta town? Hey, anyone with funky hair like you is cool in my book. Hitch your wagon to me, cause Rick Jones is going to Mars. Im gonna be bigger than Peter Frampton someday, just you wait and see."
"Damn. Brother Eros, we appear to have gone back in time to a clumsily scripted Marvel comic of the 1970s."
"Thats right, you fellas are in my backyard now, and Rick Jones, cool but hotheaded teen, rules this roost."
"I, Thanos request you cease referring to yourself in the third person. It is irritating."
"No need to be heavy. Come on, I got a gig scheduled, and Rick Jones is never late for a gig. Ya dig?"
"Do not make Thanos repeat himself again, human. There will be repercussions."
"Dont rain on my parade, sunshine. Rick Jones goes where he will and does what he wants. Aint no one tells me what to do. I go where the road takes me and never look back."
"Yeah, cool out Thanos. This is the seventies, bro. Do you know what that means? Free love! These people knew how to party!"
"Ah, come on, we aint got time for purple-puss back there. If ya ask Rick Jones, your brothers a square."
"Bah. Be gone. Thanos needs not your help. Father was right Eros, you are a slacker, and you will be made to pay for this indignity."
"See ya ace! Come on chum, lets blow this popsicle stand. This place Im playing at tonight, its the cats meow youll dig it!"
[Yes, have fun while you can, Rick Jones! But know that you have made an enemy today, an enemy named THANOS ]
"Hey, who the hell are you? Who you talkin too?"
[You can hear me, Rick Jones? You can hear the melodramatic second-person-limited narrator?]
"Yeah. Now cut it out, alright? Youre crampin my style, see?"
[What do you intend to do, Rick Jones. What do you intend to do?]
"I dont know, man. Just leave me alone!"
[Know that you choose a lonely and dangerous path, Rick Jones. A path you must walk ALONE]
"Fine. Cmon. We gotta get to my gig!
