Victor's
God, how he wanted to just ravish his friend, now as said friend stood in front of the board and explained his newest invention to them. Reed being sexy was (according to Victor) a pretty normal occurrence, but now he was his best. He always looked so full of life, when he was talking about science.
"...so, to sum it up: This should make a huge amount of money for the company and raise a better image, because of the humanitarian effect it will have..."
Silence. It seemed that Reed had managed to truly blow them away, which Victor had expected and it satisfied him extremely that those snobby bastards, couldn't think of a single argument against it. But Reed, it seemed, took the silence the wrong way. The dark haired man started to fidget with his sleeve and even though Victor would like to see that more often, because frankly it was totally cute, decided to end his friends anxiousness.
"Thanks Doctor Richards, that was brilliant. I think there's nothing that speaks against your proposal. I'll call you when the meeting is over." He smiled reassuringly at the smaller man, who send one of his most beautiful smiles his way.
"Thanks for hearing me out. Gentleman." Reed nodded his farewell to the others and with one last look at Victor left the room. Taking a deep breath to calm his nerves Victor watched the other members of the board: "So, any questions? Or can we go straight to the marketing plan?"
His colleagues just stared at him and nodded agreeably to everything he said.

General
"Alright, what is going on with you and Victor? And don't tell me some crap about getting even with him because of that stupid mission. I know you better than that, Reed." The question came out of the blue and Reed spit his orange juice all over the front page of his newspaper. Confused, he looked over at his friend and noticed that the other two occupants of their kitchen table also watched him. Sue had a kind of annoyed expression on her face while Johnny seemed fairly amused by the whole thing. Ben on the other hand was hard to read these days, but the tone he had used said enough about his friends anger and curiosity. Wiping his lips clean with a napkin he answered: "What do you mean? I'm just helping out a friend. They could have fired him, after that disaster. Which wouldn't have been fair, since I've blown that up." Ben gave a grunt and rolled his eyes. "Yeah, sure. A friend. Since when is he a friend?"
Furrowing his brow's Reed glared at the other man. "Since college. We've been friends and so have you. You just never forgave him for stealing your girlfriend...Betty... Betsy...or what was her name?! I really think it's time you two get over it, especially since you've had your little revenge on him. That blue paint didn't come off for days, you know."
Chuckling a bit Ben seemed to remember his little prank. "Yeah...he looked like one of the Smurfs. I bought him the white hat and matching tights, to make it more realistic."
Reed shook his head amused. "Yes, it was pretty funny. I don't think he ever forgave me for laughing at him, when he got out of the pool. All blue. Except for the hair."
"That was a stupid prank, Ben." Sue said even though she was smiling at the memory. "I had to lend him my notes for the entire week, because he refused to set one step out of his apartment."
"Yeah, me too." Admitted Reed, still grinning.
"Well, okay. We're actually even. Still, back to the original question. What goes on with you guys?" Ben asked again.
It was Johnny who responded to that, seemingly excited over the whole topic: "Come one, Ben. You can't be that ignorant. Our big, evil businessman has the hots for the good doctor."
Ben grunted and clapped one giant hand over his eyes: "Oh, hell...NO!"
Confused Reed turned to a grinning Johnny, than to Sue and than back again. Slowly he asked: "What has Victor's attraction to Sue got to do with me?" Three pairs of eyes landed on him. His friends looked at him as if he'd lost his mind. Maybe he had, because really, he had no idea what place he had in the whole Sue/Victor affair. "What?" he asked again, but all three just shook their head's and left the kitchen.
"Hey, where are you going? What's wrong?"
Poor Reed. Never saw it coming.

Reed
He'd never felt this free before. Even though Reed loved his job and his life, but this was something entirely different.
The glittering water beneath him, looked magnificent. He knew he needed to find a way to reverse their predicament, but for all that was good and beautiful, he couldn't really think about his power's as a bad thing. It had taken him about 5 minutes to get from his apartment up to the bridge. And as he was now standing high on the to it felt wonderful to breath in the fresh air and letting the wind blow all around him. The sun was warming his skin and seeped through his suit. God, this felt so good.
There was only one thing that would make this better. Victor. He couldn't really explain it, but he really missed his dark haired friend. They hadn't seen each other in days. Obviously Victor had much to do and Reed knew that his company always came first for the older man.
Sue on the other hand had been painfully clingy the last week. It was starting to worry him. She'd always been a very independent and strong woman and now she seemed to have regrown into a sixteen year old. She constantly asked him out. To go to the movies. Taking a walk or whatever else she asked him for. Maybe this was some side effect of her knew power's? It was like she sometimes didn't really care that Ben needed his help. Okay, he'd taken a time out, but this was just for an hour and after he'd sapped around the country a bit, he would get back to work.
Speaking of which: His hour was almost over. He sighed deeply and turned around to speed back home...

Klaw
"Idiotic, stupid, Richards." The brown haired man threw his coffee mug against the wall. Seething over the guy who, made him lose his chance with the Von Doom Company. Ulysses Klaw had worked long and hard. It had taken years of research, countless weeks of sleepless nights and one sacrifice after another and that ordinary bastard, destroyed everything.
Within one week Richards had published and licensed an invention, he himself barely had finished. How had this little bugger, managed to get that far, even though there had never been any indication that Richards was working on the same project.
Oh, but the little shit would pay dearly.

Mad Thinker
"Reed Richards," Whispered words flew around the room as the brown haired, chubby man looked around the lab.
"So intelligent. To good for all these idiotic, ignorant people, my boy..." He chuckled lightly as he went through the Database, only searching for projects with Dr. Richard's name in it. "The great Thinker, will show you what the rest of the world can't see. How much better we are then them..."
