Well met to all who read these words. I am Sif, formerly of Asgard, recently arrived in Midgard and making my place now among my people here. I offer greetings to those whom I know from my previous visits to Midgard, and if my aid is required in aught to assist or defend this world where I now dwell, I offer it as well.

There's been a subtle shift of metaphysical energy within the dimensional rift. Anyone who is psychically sensitive or manipulates energy has likely felt a little off.

It's not at a dangerous level, but I can see someone's already had a dream. I think we can expect this to happen over the coming nights.

In the meantime, it's being monitored by myself and Wong for any abrupt changes.

So, let's get this out of the way now. Yes, I was dead. Now I'm not.

How many of you are going to want to punch me? Just so we can work something out here.

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

Everyone meet Morgan Maria Stark! Tony dressed her like this so not my idea.

Since I've apparently been here two times before, I doubt I need to introduce myself. So, I'll just say, 'It's Daisy, I'm back.'

I know I just violated a few internet rules, namely the 'never Google yourself' and 'don't read any fanfic about yourself' ones. At least a lot of the fanfic was decently written? Though, I'm pretty sure I figured out that one of the Koenig brother wrote more than one of them, and now I feel a little dirty.

I don't suppose I have a job I need to get to right now?

Hey, did you get the invite for SHIELD?

[Peter Parker]

I apologise for the lateness of this enquiry, I was otherwise preoccupied with Hulk Sitting as Thor called it - have you recovered from your injury?

[Public]

Is it common for Midgardians to scribble numbers on the side of coffee cups?

Has the dust settled down on all of that yet? Is it safe to talk to you guys? Because I'd like to express to you men types that if you host a bachelor party for Tony keep it as low key as possible, please?

Ladies? I'm going to need as much help as I can get!

[Nat]
Want to be my maid of honor?

Well that's a thing. I guess Franken-Friday snagged that as part of the news algorithm and posted it before I could make an announcement.

Anyway! Yep. We're getting married. You're all invited. Everyone on here. Huge party afterward. And hopefully a honeymoon without ninjas, terrorists, robots, or anything else attacking. That'd be great.

While we're still in announcement mode, Nick Fury is rebooting Secret SHIELD to help the Secret Avengers with some of the more shady stuff going on lately (like those super bullets). Co-funded by me and Pep. It should help get new information flowing in. So if you're one of those cloak and dagger types, he's the man to talk at.

Grats, Fury. Don't get all mad dad at me anymore.

[private to Pepper]

Someone really took your press release and ran with it, didn't they?

So the weather in L.A. is dramatically different than the weather in NYC, and I really didn't pack for an extended stay. And, let's face it, any excuse to go shopping. Right? Anyone interested in going with me? Lunch and mani/pedis are on me.

[Tony]

Not you.

I'm not even going to pretend I understand why I'm in New York and not molecular space dust but, on balance, I'll take it. So, what did I miss?

Whoever said, "The universe is not only stranger than you imagine, it's stranger than you can imagine," wasn't just whistling Dixie.

I find myself in the unusual position of being a months-long resident of the Big Apple and a brand-new arrival. So hello, everyone.

Some of you are friends. Some of you are acquaintances. Some of you I know by name/reputation/sight. Some of you are complete strangers. But we're all in this together, I'm told.

So once again: hello, everyone. Feel free to catch up, say hello, or introduce yourself, as appropriate.

Question: Does SHIELD exist in this place?

All right, people. Since we're stuck in this together, who needs a more permanent rent-free place to stay?

Shuri's been nice enough to set up a "Wakandan diplomatic residence" to help everyone out. Here it is, with a grand total of 20 furnished apartments, so grab a roommate if you can. You provide on-site security, if needed. She's got dibs on the top two penthouses, to turn it into a science playground. While she's busy moving lab equipment and setting up shop, you're stuck with yours truly. I can feel how thrilled you are.

If you need a job, I'm hiring. Security personnel, tech support, snoozy office jobs, or lab work if you've got the qualifications. False I.D.s provided to Human Resources upon request. You didn't hear that from me (even if you did).

Comment if you want to hop on board this crazy train.

Well there is nothing more embarrassing than running through Prospect Park after clocking a cop with his own baton while only wearing a bikini. So much for Cabo.

Hello everyone. If we haven't met, I'm Steve Rogers.

Tony Stark has been arrested. Since I have no assurance that he is being held humanely, nor do I believe he will be offered a fair trial, I'm going to break him out. As several of you know, I've done this before.

The process will be dangerous and there will of course be a risk that I will be caught and incarcerated as well, but I'd like to see if anyone else would like to volunteer to join me. Doctor Strange may have an idea of his location soon and I want to be standing by when he does.

Please let me know.

Voice post. Suited up. Calling dibs on the Upper West Side, unless someone wants to split it and go halfsies with me. Before I say anything further, gotta start off by saying I hope no one gets hurt. Civilians. Police. Puppies. My dad never bought me a puppy. I made a robot instead.

It might seem like that would embarrass me, but I have no shame.

SHARKNADO IS REAL? OH HELL YES.

While the U.N. schedules a debate about it, I'm not missing this...I mean, missing on helping out. It's local, not worldwide. I've got a whole new multi-targeting system upgrade to test out.

Hello? I'm Grant. I've recently arrived here. Apologies if you know me I seem to have lost my memory...

I know there's a few of us here. How many of you are not set up/alone? I know there's a few of us who are wanted by the Government and it might be worthwhile banding together to get us established here.

Private to Bucky

Hey Buck, you alright? Stark said you were here.

Hi! Someone got a 'fun' text message about a person needing additional help. Guess who that someone was? Yours truly.

That's why we're going to play a 'fun' game called:

Raise your hand if you're wanted by state or federal law enforcement.
Put your hand down, Rock of Ages. You're 90% Thor's problem to deal with.

Look, you're not going to get turned in. I said I wasn't going to rat anyone out, even if I hate your guts, and here we are. Two days later. Rat free. I can't tell without tipping off that I'm involved in this and running the risk they'll find out I'm harboring you. Yay us. Now I need to know how many asses I'm going to cover for, if I have to lie to Secretary of State Thunderbitch Ross and give enough tip off time for you to get away.

Use a private filter so only I can see it. If you don't know how, Thor asked for help and got Tech Support.

If your name is Dandelion or Daffodil or whatever flower thing happened to you at birth? I'm calling you Tech Support now. You and I need to have a little chat ASAP.

Is it possible to send messages to people privately on this?

Hello. I'm Dr. Strange. I'm the reason you're reading this right now.

No, it wasn't intentional.

No, I can't fix it.

Yes, I'm here if you want to yell, scream, or ask questions.
