    ❛ and how could you be sure that it’ll be worthwhile ?? ❜     but the curiosity soon leaves him the moment his name falls from the other man’s lips ——— the man he has never met before.       eyes narrow, suspicion swimming in the orange specks of his brown orbs in place of curiosity.        ❛ how do you know my name ?? ❜      he has to wrack his memory for any recollection, an introduction from years before that he might have forgotten about. maybe a welcome wagon from his shield days ??        a welcome wagon for powered individuals to be enrolled on the index. if that’s the case, and he cannot recall anything, he’s already at a disadvantage. the man knows him, but he knows nothing of him.

_{those were the two important questions weren’t they? not just the reasons to why, but also how he knew of Ward. suffice to say, a welcome wagon was one way of putting it; not the best, but most certainly not the worst. ky had his sources; a name was just a name, but knowing some about Ward was key to his plans. It wasn’t much, but anything was far better than nothing when it came to information these days.}

_{❛ so many questions; here i thought were already great friends. ❜ there was enough sarcasm in his tone to tell he wasn’t serious, but on some level… ky thought they were going to be great. maybe not right now or anytime soon, but one day it was or could  be  quite possible.}  

_{❛ it will be… enough to make sure we’re feared; maybe  enough to take on a  few teams, but i doubt we’ll get that far with-out some ground rules. ❜ or knowing how to actually work together, but all would come in good time (or so he hoped).  ❛ i wouldn’t want  anyone going in… and  then  fighting amongst themselves at a vital moment, would you?❜}  

_{however, the key point for how he knew ward still wasn’t touched  upon. in-fact, he didn’t even see it as  necessary for the time being. ❛ besides… we’ll have great outfits. ❜}
