OOC: Yeah, probably. I know if that relationship stays strong then Mike will stick around too. And Conrad goes where Mike goes, just slower
. I think it's pretty manageable to keep them nearby, especially since Eli's at MIT, Hope's at Harvard, Conrad's going to transfer to MIT once they figure out the military isn't going to work out, and Mike and Raven will probably end up at Evelyn's school.
The villains one might be fun, even though most of the villains are dead, so the main storyline would be the cliche do-I-flow-my-father/grandfather/uncle's- legacy-or-be-a-good-guy. We could do Loki, Red Skull, Yellowjacket (yeah he's AntMan but AntMan shows up in Civil War), Whiplash (Vanko), Warmonger (Stane), Hammer, Mandarin, Malekith, Pierce, Ross, etc. Or some of Spiderman's. Actually, we could probably do a whole story just with Spiderman.
If they want to do X-Men, I am an X-Men fan and I could answer just about any question you have. But I know it's not as fun when you don't really know what's going on. So here's my new proposition: Everyone has one character, or maybe two so everyone can have a boy and a girl if they want. The characters can be related to anyone in the Marvel universe. Our characters would be part of either:
A) a covert ops kind of team, who can go undercover and deal with the other parts of bad guy operations while the heroes are basically the distraction and defeat the bad guys
B) there's Xavier's school and maybe something like an Avengers Academy and these students are like representatives and they hop back and forth like some weird exchange program
C) SHIELD has a training program for teenage heroes
D) They're all friends and they ran off to start their own super team.
This way, they can use Jean Grey and Cyclops if they want, you can stick with characters that you know, and I can have no limitations.
