"Right," Steve said, pulling on his protective paintball jumpsuit as he talked, "today we've made the course substantially more difficult."

Since most some of you took this a little seriously. "There are more traps around the area that will trigger paint buckets to fall on you. So the course itself is also trying to eliminate you, as well as your fellow players."

"So, hopefully it'll prove to be a challenge on your level," Tony added. "Hopefully."

Look, they were doing their best with you crazy people.

"You also can't use your powers any longer," Steve said, arching his eyebrow at Anakin.

"So please be respectful of your classmates." Tony knew that was a fool's errand, but still.

"Hot," Arden said. "...You know, from being in the research park capital of America, I should really know more bullshit buzzwords. Something something bull market?"

"Yeah but who really wants to buy a bull these days?" Kamala asked. "It's clearly a niche market."

"It's for shaking down china shops," Arden said with a wise nod. "I'm not a fancy businesswoman, so I have to make money the old-fashioned way."

You know. Crime.
