Deadpool perks up instantly.
"Nexus, my sweet toxic enabler, you know exactly how to motivate me."
He taps the quest info open.
"Stand out, huh? Babe, standing out's the only thing I don't need a buff for."
Deadpool scans the crowd.The Hunters Guild members are still posing for photos and interviews across the barrier.Reporters yelling. Fans screaming. Security trying to keep order.
Suddenly Deadpool notices a big, burly tank-type guy muscling through the crowd—pushing people aside like he owns the place.
Tank Guy: "Outta the way, losers! I'm getting a front row!"
He shoves a scrawny teenager out of his way, nearly knocking her to the ground. Other people flinch and shrink back.
Deadpool tilts his head, smiling behind his mask.
"Bingo. Big angry dummy spotted."
Deadpool cracks his knuckles.Pulls up his Skill Menu.Activates [Taunt Lv.1].
[DING!]
Taunt Activated: You are now 200% more punchable.
Deadpool saunters casually toward the tank guy.
"Hey, Muscle Milk. You left your decency back at the gym."
The tank guy turns, face darkening.
"You got a problem, freak?"
Deadpool mock gasps.
"Problem? Nah, I just thought you were doing a public service announcement for why you shouldn't skip brain day."
A few people in the crowd snicker.
Tank Guy snarls: "You wanna die, moron?"
Deadpool throws his arms wide.
"Buddy, death and I are on a first-name basis. He sends me Christmas cards."
Tank Guy lunges.
Deadpool doesn't dodge immediately.He sidesteps at the last second with the casual grace of someone who's been punched by both the Hulk and Cable in the same afternoon.
The guy stumbles. People gasp. Cameras turn toward the commotion.
The barrier security shuffles uncomfortably. Even some of the Hunters Guild members glance over—curious.
Chae In: (quietly to Choi) "...Who's the guy in red?"
Choi Jong-In: (squinting) "No idea. But he's definitely... standing out."
Deadpool to the fourth wall:
"Step one: make a scene. Step two: get noticed. Step three: ??? Step four: profit."
