The countdown to Halloween is real, people. Four days. I'll be binging The Simpsons Treehouse of Horror episodes.

I need to know all of your favorite Halloween movies? Because reasons. Please comment below with your all-time, favorite Halloween movies. They can be fun and fluffy, or downright terrifying. Maybe they're nostalgic? Or maybe they're cutting edge and thought-provoking. Whatever they are, I'd love to hear it!

[Private to Bucky]
You ready for this?


[Private to Zemo]
Step one toe out of line and you'll regret it.


[Private to Natasha & Yelena]
You two up for a little fun?


[Private to Pete Wisdom]
If you're not busy, I could use you and your girl as backup.


[Private to T'Challa]
I understand you have a safe house in Madripoor.

Что за черт? What the hell is this? I read the brochure but it doesn't make sense.

I see that from this news feed that more super soldiers are being created. Nothing like your Steve Rogers. This is to be expected. People are known to dabble for profit.

I have connections. Personal connections none of you have. I may be able to help with this problem.

Before it grows worse.

I have an important announcement to make.

Steve has decided to retire from the superhero life. He's giving up the Captain America mantle and is no longer living in the tower.

Well, I waited a few days in the hopes that I wouldn't actually have to make this post, but it looks like Carol got poofed out of this universe.

Uhh Hey, I'm Bucky. I guess I'm back here again. Somehow.

[private to Steve and Sam]

What the hell. I'm in Tony's building now? Some other me wasn't staying here before, or was he?

Oh well, this is just awkward.

Private: Bucky, Bruce, Tony &, now including team science!
We have a small problem.

Pack your flip flops and grab your passports, we're going to Genosha for Thor and Jane's wedding. We finally got everyone's clearance to get in, which was like jumping through hoops of fire. Rooms and venue are all booked. We fly out tomorrow night at 5 PM. No paparazzi or media allowed. We're allowed only one photog in designated areas.

Cap's come up with a 3 part plan: ( Recon, Distract, Evac. )

[To Stark & Banner]

I have looked at the Chitauri weapons you acquired. What do you want to know about them? I will warn you now, a few of them are hairdryers.

[To Pepper]

Do you require any assistance with your work? I'm not as busy as I would wish.

[To Quill & Drax]

Have you heard anything from the fox or the tree?

[To Captain Rogers]

I would like your input on how we should organize an exercise regime for the team.

[To Wanda]

I haven't checked in with you lately. How are you and your sons faring?

[To Dr. Foster]

How are you faring?

[To Barnes]

I'm bored. Is there something distracting we can do? Without compromising your safety, of course. Is there an activity or a place you would like to visit?

I know it is early, but I thought I'd better post. I'm Shuri, previously in Oakland, California until I found myself in a park near Harlem about an hour and a half ago.

This multiverse hopping is exhausting. I could use a latte and maybe something to eat. I just stepped through a portal to 30 Warren, wherever that is. Is anyone awake?

Rhodey - the Rhodey we knew - is gone.


I want to hit something.


I hate this place.

[private to Bucky]

Another sleepless night means I'm full of energy drinks and self-hatred. That means drinks tonight while you glare at everyone who comes too close and I get over the top, knowing you'll totally beat up anyone who I piss off.

You in?

You haven't seen Jurassic Park, have you? The drive-in, Skyline in Brooklyn, is playing that Saturday at 7.

Now that I have had a little time to try to read everything I can - I wanted to say hello to those who haven't run into me yet. Apparently I was here, then gone, then I got here all in a very short time span. I don't claim to understand it but I am not the Steve you knew last month, but I am here.

[Bucky]
I have not seen you yet - can we remedy this so I can get caught up on how you are doing here?

I think most of you probably know this by now, but I realized I never said anything publicly. Or, well, semi-publicly. I'm okay with all of you knowing though we're keeping it on the down-low from the general public.

Anyway, it turns out that Tony is my dad. So yeah. Now you know.

[Private to Bucky]
Hey. What do you think about going out with T'Challa and Natasha sometime? Like a double date sorta thing?

I'm watching a movie. The plot concerns a beauty pageant where an officer of the Federal Bureau of Investigations goes undercover as a contestant due to a lead on an apparent bomb threat at the event.

Can someone please explain why 'whirled peas' are so important?

I have a week off work and nothing to do. Which I guess is the point of having time off work, to relax and regroup and recover from pretend pneumonia (kidding, I actually asked for time off, had tons banked).
Anyways.

Who wants to drink and play lame bar games? I warn you, I drink like a white girl, so one person at a time. Too many, and I'll be in bed by 10 pm and that's just ... too real and lame.

If anyone's tracking their order for an epic shit storm? It's arrived.

Pretty sure this is the opposite of chill, Thor.

Quick question: Does this stop if we throw some virgins or goats on a bonfire?

That was dramatic. Even by my standards.

Hi. I'm in the Tower's med clinic. I'm using Friday for voice-to-text posts.

P.S. Don't say anything risque. Or incriminating. She's reading out loud.

P.S.S. If you really want to? That's ok too.

Hello. I am Steve Rogers.

Not sure how many times I've been here but I can only say I remember being dumped into Central Park wearing my pajamas once and that's it.

So, hey. I'm Bucky. Guess I oughta make myself useful and get a job 'round these parts.

Ok how do I turn off and/or change the ring on this phone? Morse, if you call me one more time...

[locked to Bucky, Bobbi and Hope]

Pack your bags. Wakanda is asking for help.

Barnes, I know T'Challa spoke with you already. Do what you gotta do. No specific mission for you.

Hope, there's some security and intel that we need to get. T'Challa will fill you in.

Bobbi, you and I are on diplomacy duties. We want to see what's going on, and get a good sense.

Remember -- we're going as support. No one acts without talking to me first. All information must be shared. We are working together with Wakanda.


We leave tomorrow morning. 06h00.

I wanted to make everyone aware of the situation involving the undersea quakes that have been (literally) rocking Wakanda and other African nations. We have been studying and monitoring these submarine earthquakes, as any damage that occurs is not necessarily due to just the quake itself but whatever natural disaster the quake triggers - a tsunami, for example.

So far, there have not been any instances of major flooding or infrastructure damage occurring. However, the quakes seemed very deliberate in that they stopped once some sort of relic was believed to have been washed ashore along a coastline in South Africa - I have sent my top War Dog to investigate this matter, but we all need to be on alert.

There could be much more to come.

Steve and I have discussed the recent weapons issue. Intel states that a man, Thomas Green, is single-handedly creating the fake-Wakanda weapons. He's a known HYDRA engineer, and could be anywhere. We need to get Thomas Green (alive), and all his research.

From the information we have, there's approximately five different known locations. I'll need teams to infiltrate each.

( Your mission, should you chose to accept -- just kidding. This is the mission )

Greetings all. I am T'Challa, and I believe I know some of you - some I do not. But I have just arrived in New York City and will be staying in the building a version of me purchased? in the penthouse at 30 Warren, what we may call a diplomatic residence.

We have a Wakandan Outreach Center in Oakland, and I am more familiar with that area - despite my many trips to New York City, I have not gotten a chance to explore very much. If there is anyone willing to assist with this, it would be greatly appreciated. Otherwise, I hope to settle in. I have a feeling this will be quite the experience.

We've been through a lot lately. Good and bad. There's more and more people showing up. Some new. Some returning who don't remember being here before. Looking at it all together it's looking like something is back-building. Something big. I bounced this off a few people and we seem to be in agreement. It's time to rebuild what we had before.

It's time for the Avengers and SHIELD to reform.

I realize this may not be a welcome idea, and Pepper I know you and Tony are new parents so I'm sorry the timing is bad. No one will be forced into this. If someone wants to be backup or not involved at all that decision will be respected.

But I'm calling for volunteers. So is Nick. Old faces and new. Sound off here with what you'd prefer. If you are going to be part of this let us know which team you want to be on: Avengers or SHIELD.

Thanks.
Steve

Falcon reporting for duty.

Pepper filled me in on what's going on. Figured I should say hi and see who else is around.

I'm Bucky. A magician told me that I was here before. Don't remember anything about meeting anyone in an alternate dimension though.

I'm looking for a hundred year old veteran from Brooklyn who never knew when to quit.

[Steve]
I know you are likely busy but I was wondering if you wouldn't mind going on a walk with me tonight?

[Tony]
I cannot believe you managed to find a miniature you just existing out in the world.

[Bucky]
How are you? I would like it stated for the record that I am jealous you lot got to fight the walking undead while I was forced to put up with disgusting pirates.

I've just come from the end of the world. I'm not in entirely presentable condition. Maybe try not to bombard me with information.

But I figured I should - say hi, or something. If only so Dr. Strange doesn't have to lie to anyone about finding me in Central Park yesterday.

I am Gamora. Is this the reference board where I inquire about how to fit in on this miserable little planet?


( private message to loki )

Hey. So I understand there was another me. I'm not even going to try to explain how that works. I'll leave that to the mystic man, but I was told I was stuck in the Soul Stone...or something. Ask Strange. But I'm back.

I may sound like a broken record here on the whole “a lot has changed”, but I think it’s fair for me to use the punch card with how enormous Christmas has become. The future certainly doesn’t make anything simple. And Christmas appears to be very serious.

It’s a nice atmosphere though. For a city that’s crowded and never sleeps, covered in lights and a positive attitude.

What’s the non-dinosaur way to spend Christmas these days?

It grows ever colder outside. How am I to obtain powdered cheese puffs with a ridiculous cat wearing sunglasses on the packaging?

Fury

Did you ever go on vacation?

Tony

I demand a present from Dubai.

Wanda

How are you doing with the normalcy of things now?

James

Bored with normalcy yet?

[Bucky]

How are you? I know I haven't popped over since we've been back so I just wanted to check in.

[Tony]

I hope you are being safe and smart on your vacation.

[Nat]

I'd love to take you up on that dinner, if you are still interested?

[Fury]

Any chance you could put in a good word and get this old woman a job?

Yay! We won at something that somewhere else didn't win at.

I think we've all earned a vacation.

So here it is. You name it, you got it. I'm sending you (and a plus one, if applicable) on an all expense paid vacation to wherever the hell you wanna go to. Max limit of two weeks. Plane tickets and prepaid expense cards can be picked up within 24 hours of request at Stark Industry's front desk on the main floor.

Fury

How are you holding up, considering everything that's happened?

James

Up for some training?

Tony

When am I getting my spear back?

Clint

I feel like you've been avoiding me.

Wanda

Checking in, how are you doing since coming home?

Peggy

Let's have lunch.

How are you holding up?

Fulgerul luminează intermitent
Când oboseala te-a copleșit, dragă
Tremură genele acolo

Totul este trecut, totul a suflat
Nu mai trebuie să te întorci
Nu mai rămâne nimic în urmă
Doar tristețe și vai.

[Bucky]
You doing okay?
