So Felix Harper has slipped from the grasp of the first member of the team. Let's see how he does against Bishop...

An entropic shield has a tendency to make things like bullets fly off in a random direction. Not the best thing where crowds may be concerned...

Oh, and that is quite a rude gesture there, Felix. You should be ashamed!

That's a neat trick. Mercy should take note.

Not all sorcerers have the same tricks. That being said, it would be handy in her line of work.

~~Seriously, assuming all sorcerers can do the same things... that's racist~~

Well, by looking at the colors involved, I would say that Harper would appear to be accessing a much broader palette of skills.

Oooh, that entropic field is quite colorful! Matches his scarf! :-)

Also, isn't "copper" usually a British slang term, or am I mistaken?

Heheh... there's a reason he wears the scarf.

Here in the US, we get it from old gangster movies (and, I presume, from slang of the period).

It's more modern, but "Freeze" is also movie-related. First used in "The French Connection", it's now in common use among law enforcement. :)

And isn't the phrase usually pronounced "You'll neva take me alive, Coppah!"

Because civilian casualties are a bad thing if you get caught :P

Civilian casualties are always a bad thing. Doubly so if you are supposed to be a covert team... :)

Please don't say they have that rainbow scarf because is #gayally .

Why didn't you just show the bullet bounce off the shield?

Why everything

Would it be a problem if he was an ally?

Given the nature of the shield, it would be terribly irresponsible for Agent Johnson to fire at it (it could hit innocent bystanders or, you know, himself).

Why everything? It seemed like a good idea at the time. :)
