D14 [Morning] : Encrypted Video to Steve Rogers, Matt Farrell, Parker and Dick Grayson

[geekage]

[ Hardison's sitting in a deserted stairwell, the laptop he's "borrowed" balanced precariously on his lap. He speaks quickly as if he doesn't have much time, and the truth is he probably doesn't. Wendy's on the warpath today.]

Look, there's something I need to tell you. I probably should've told you before now, but I wasn't sure. [ He takes a deep breath. ] I used to be roommates with Ray Palmer, but after Arty and I got turned over for being traitors I started to think maybe there was something to everyone he knows being targeted for treason. Think about it. How many people have disappeared since he got here?

I wasn't sure until Arty got arrested this morning, though. The last thing Arty told me was that he was going to keep an eye on Ray for me. Tell me if he was acting strange. Does that seem like a coincidence to you? More than that, the guy is dangerous. Under that fake ass smile he's up to something. You know he has bomb parts under his bed right? Took them from one of his missions.

We gotta do something about it. And we need to do it before he turns someone else in. The guy's a mole.

D14: Encrypted Message to Tony Stark

They took Bucky.

[ He's not rash enough to give up his morals and tell Tony, "Let's get them with any methods possible," but Steve's message implies the one thing he knows Tony wants to know. He's ready to go further than just playing defense. ]
