Scattered Electricity

Side blog "I had a friend once... things didn't work out." An Electro muse who's regaining his energy after the blow from Spider-man given at the power grid. He can form into a somewhat solid being usually, but prefers traveling through wires considering he's still not fully healed and that takes less painful concentration. OC, AU, and outer-fandom friendly, mun has had over 2 years of roleplaying experience and is 18 but will only be willing to do NFSW content if certain RP partner is of age. Timeline is post TASM2 but this can be adjusted if wanted. Multi-ship muse.

Electro concentrated on staying a solid being, wincing slightly with how he was still gathering up his energy after having the blow at the power plant hit him as badly as it did.

Electric blue eyes blinked, looking over at none other than the heir of Oscorp. “Har- Mr. Osborn?” Crap- he wouldn’t turn him in… would he? Max honestly just to put it simply wasn’t sure who to trust nowadays.

[xnewgoblin]

Harry let out a low whistle. Though he was shocked, he mused that the best  option in the moment would be to behave as nonchalantly as was possible. He’d fought men affected by the Venom, or with a rage beyond captivity and powers beyond the understanding of most people-he could handle them, but Max, in this new form-he couldn’t be too careful. “Yeah…It’s me, Max. How-how you holding up?” He tried.

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Electro eyed Harry unsurely, at least somewhat relaxing when the other didn't make any move to call the police or something like that.

How was he holding up..? That was an... unexpected question, not unpleasant, just unexpected.

"Fine." Max answered simply, electric tone seeping in. "... You?"

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

"Give me one good reason I shouldn’t fry you." Electro’s distorted voice simply challenged, chest puffing out and head inclining.

An electric blue hand raised, sparks jumping…

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Electro listened to the other’s words, not completely letting his guard down however slightly growing ever so less wary at the intriguing offer; slightly.

Max paused, mind racing and weighing his options, attempting to go over the realistic and irrational expectations of what could come.

Silence lingered for what seemed like possibly minutes other than the electricity crackling quietly in the tense air.

And then finally…

"What is it you have in mind?"

[xnewgoblin]

During the pause Harry licked at his dry lips. The charge in the air set a slight shudder down his spine as he waited for a response with two options on mind; be ready to run, or be ready to fight.

Luckily he doesn’t need to choose either.

"That’s more like it. Now I was thinking. Let me see who it is beneath the mask. After I get the guy’s face, I’ll uh…" He shrugged, looking for a euphemism. "Bang him up a bit. Then you get your turn. Finish him off. Kill him however you want. By the time we’re done, your name will be on the big screens for the next decade."

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Alright… so Harry only wanted a go at the insect and was just as curious as Max was as to who exactly was under the mask… which meant Electro got to finish the ‘hero’ off… sounded good, unless of course this turned out to be some sort of two sided trick or the other ended up deciding just to kill the spider himself.

In any case Max took note to keep at least vaguely on his guard at all times.

A pause. “… Alright.” His head tilted to the side. “How do you propose we do this?” Electro expected Harry had already laid out a plan but wasn’t sure.

[xnewgoblin]

Harry grinned, showing strong teeth. This was coming along so much better than he anticipated. Max was eager, he could tell. As eager as Harry, which was saying something. He wondered what it was Spiderman did to get someone like this so pissed in the first place.

Rubbing his hands together, Harry felt the Goblin attempting to rise to the surface.

'Not yet’, he urged it silently. 'let me handle this on my own a little longer.' Just until they found the bug then, then he’d give himself up to the persona.

"Let me tell you I love where this is going already. I’ll find him and lead him to you; It’ll be easy. I have connections-once they spot him in a certain area, I’ll hire some people to cause a distraction; they’ll direct him to me. I do what I need to do, then you follow.” He paused a moment. “Before that though… We need to do something about your injuries if this is going to work.”

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Harry cut to the chase, not beating around the bush, instead making the plan simple, short and sweet, rather than complicated and unnerving.

Good.

"When do we start?" Alright, he’d play along and be allies with the other- as long as nothing proved to be deceiving that is.

As for when Harry brought up his… injuries…

"I’m not injured." Electro lied somewhat defensively, attempting to not let it be known he was in a weak state. "I just-" He searched his mind for an excuse. "-don’t feel well." Whether or not it was actually believable Max wasn’t sure.

[xnewgoblin]

"As soon as possible. There’s no need to wait it out."

Harry could tell Max took nearly too much pride in himself. He could see through the lie the moment they had first met. “Don’t try to hide it.” Subtly wasn’t Harry’s area of expertise. He  could go along with the electric being’s insistence on being fine, but that’s not something he wants to waste his time on. “You want revenge right? You can’t do that unless you’re in top shape, so let me help you out with that.”

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Electro mentally agreed the sooner the better since a number of problematic things could begin to occur whence taking too much time, giving a small nod at Harry’s answer.

Max almost argued with the other on the manner of whether or not he was hurt before deciding the CEO had a valid point and instead letting out a static sigh under his breath.

"Alright." But… "I doubt there’s much you can do though." Heck, not even Electro knew how to properly deal with his injuries; it’s not as though medicine and bandages or anything like that could help with the weak sparked out places on himself.

[xnewgoblin]

"Atta’ boy Max." Laughing, Harry had to stop himself from reaching out and tapping the man’s shoulder in an act of feigned familiarity. Stuffing his hands in his pockets instead, Harry turned his back to Electro.

"If you think you’re up to the trip, I could take you to a facility, and we-trusted individuals of course-could work to help you. Who knows, maybe all you need is a good charge." He peered over his shoulder, waiting to see how Electro would react to the offer.

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Electro couldn't help but feel as though this was possibly some sort of trick in the back of his mind, nonetheless attempting to push that accusation back and deciding to see what exactly would happen if he followed Harry; as long as he stayed somewhat on his guard things should turn out fine more or less.

"Alright." Max eventually murmured, pausing before adding, "These workers of yours aren't Ravencroft workers?", just in case.

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

~ wickedgreensmile started following you ~ Electro rubbed his upper arm, unsure of what to say much less do then and there. "Did you manage to kill the spider?" He eventually asked in a static tone, that honestly being the only speakable thing that came to mind; Max didn't even know if the other needed him anymore and was unsure if this was a proper way to more or less just pop up after being off the radar for so long.

"Give me one good reason I shouldn’t fry you." Electro’s distorted voice simply challenged, chest puffing out and head inclining.

An electric blue hand raised, sparks jumping off of it before he abruptly ended up falling into a kneeling position, his entire being snapping in and out of a solid focus.

Well crap- so much for that plan; Max should’ve known better than to attempt charging up considering he was still recovering from being blown to smithereens after the encounter with the bug.

Blue eyes unsurely eyed the person in front of him, wondering what their reaction would be with how he was in a direly weakened state.

[xnewgoblin]

"I can tell you don’t want to do that." Harry’s eyes flickered quickly over the being’s body, taking in as much as he could of the man’s features before finally settling on harsh black eyes. 

Harry’s heart was racing. This person was hurt, that much he could tell. Hurt but probably not completely powerless. Harry had not gotten his new name, but had seen him in times square battling Spiderman.After that it was easy to look into a certain incident at Oscorp, put two and two together to figure this was the very same Max Dillon who had died in a tragic accident at the lab.

Never had Harry seen someone come so close to killing his enemy. He had been so close to doing so. So close yet here they were, neither of them able to end their vendetta against the proclaimed vigilante.

"I can help you. I saw what you did. In New York." He smirked, tilting his head in a nod of approval. "I’m impressed Mr Dillon; so, I want to do you a favor."

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Electro’s eyes narrowed, jaw clenching as he ignored the sparks flickering in and out on his skin while managing to stand back up, head inclining in attempt to look taller, hand reluctantly grasping a part of the broken wall beside him.

Dillon..? The electric being hadn’t heard that name used in ages it seemed like, much less Max. How this man knew his alias when he was supposed to be wiped off the grid Electro would figure out later; first to find out what this guy wanted.

Wait, what had he done in New York..? Was this person referring to his battle with Spider-man? Possibly an ‘ally?’ The phrase the Enemy of my enemy is my ‘friend’ came to mind- briefly.

"Who are you? And what is it you want?" Electro’s distorted voice eventually questioned after eying the other up and down broodingly.

[xnewgoblin]

"I’m Harry Osborn. I figured we could make a deal." Spreading his hands as a signal that he was carrying no weapons, Harry edged closer. Staring at him was like looking at the sun; the bright exterior of Max’s skin made Harry’s eyes water as he held eye contact. In the CEO’s mind the electrician was to be approached like a wounded animal, capable of snapping defensively at any moment.

He was worth the risk. Any one who had /this/ much power was definitely worth talking to. If he couldn’t convince Max to come to aid him, he’d find some way to force him to. Use the Goblin if he needed, though he’s sure his abilities are greatly outmatched. “I’ll get straight to the point. I wan’t YOU Max- help me capture Spiderman. I need your power on my side. I’ve tried it myself but believe me, I have nothing to show for it…”

[scatteredelectricity-blog]

Harry Osborn? The founder of Oscorp? Supposedly the man who signed the agreement papers saying Ravencroft could take Electro in as a 'patient?' That Harry Osborn?

Electric blue eyes narrowed.

"Why should I trust you?" Max questioned sharply, almost wearing a sneer.

Electro observed the way Harry walked towards him, debating on whether or not he should just send jolts of electricity at him and deciding to give into curiosity a bit longer, then he'd decide where they stood.

When the Oscorp heir continued on Max caught the word 'want', head tilting; he'd been told 'need' before, but this was rather different in his eyes, possibly better different- he'd have to ponder on that.

"You're an Osborn, why don't you just hire someone to kill the bug." Electro nearly spat the last word, electric tone strong but not as defensive.
