ic notes and random gab

So, is that the catch with this place? The equivalent exchange? I get teased with a place that offers an opportunity to overcome equivalent exchange only to find out I can't go home.

Or I might just disappear even if I don't want to. That's shitty, you know that?

Stark Industries is officially looking to hire so that we can be up and running properly again?. Anybody who's interested in R&D, making the future, et cetera - throw your CV my way.

I'm also looking for people who want to mix powers/magic with technology. Technomages, I guess. They've always been pitted against each other in media but I'm pretty sure the whole 'together is better' thing applies here as well as in general. Cover each other's weaknesses and whatever.

Basically, as a general rule: If you have an idea, I have the technology and money to make it a reality. Just gotta make sure it's a good idea.

Hahaha! I find this present location highly amusing! There are persons here who construct effigies out of frozen water! How hideous and primitive!

My name is Drax the Destroyer, and I am on a quest to kill Thanos. I do not believe he is here for there does not seem to be anyone that has, or has been disintegrating in this place.

However as Thanos does not seem to be here, I shall be in need of amassing a crew in order to hunt down the scoundrel and vanquish him accordingly. Henceforth in the meantime I shall require the location of a place in which to place alcohol into my body where I shall evacuate it at a later proceeding.

I seem to have already gathered somebody along in my quest, a hideous small furry monster that the Earthers I believe refer to as a 'Furbie'. I do not see any difference between it and that disgusting garbage monster that I knew as Rocket.

Needless to say this 'Furbie' is much less pathetic than Quill. Imagine, starting a dance-off to attempt to save the universe! Hahahaha!

So, this is Ravenmoore.

And look, there's social media here as well. Joy. Somebody waved at me on the street today too, but I don't expect anybody actually knows me here, so they must have confused me with someone else. Great. So far I have more questions than answers. I should be used to this by now. Spoiler alert: I'm not.

Anyway, hi. I'm Steve. New arrival. I don't want to give away too much, but I'm reaching out. I think I read somewhere there's a Stark building here? Finding it hard to catch my bearings. If the name Thanos means anything to you, get in touch.

Looking for information re: to the end of the line. If you're the party who sent this to me, please reply privately asap. [Codename: Jerk]

SYSTEM INITIALIZED.

WRECKING BALL ONLINE.

HELLO.

THE HAMSTER SENDS HIS REGARDS.

HE SAYS "THIS IS HAPPENING."

Oh man.

Do you guys remember when you were like "hey, im gonna make a super impulsive decision and move across the country to a previously unknown island just because Im in a bad mood today and Dog Cops is on seasonal hiatus anyway so what is there to even look forward to in life"? And then, when you got to the place, you realized you didn't think ahead at all and like, didn't have anywhere to live?

Do you remember that? Because, like. What'd you do about it? Where's a good hotel?


(Must be pet friendly.)

[Thor]

Hey big guy, you got a minute? I'd like to check in on you if you're not too busy. Got something I need to ask you as well.

[Percy]

Hey, are you alright? He didn't go too hard on you, did he? I think he likes you, and he doesn't like many people.

I had fun. You're... I'm gonna sound like a kid for saying this, but that was awesome. But you're sure you're okay, right? I mean, demigod and everything, I figure you can handle yourself a bit but I still want to make sure he wasn't too rough on you.

You gave as good as you got though. It's not often you impress the other guy, but yeah. I had fun.

And now I'm rambling. Well.

So, it's a new year.

If anybody's interested, I'm working on reopening Stark Towers proper - there's going to be some positions available, mostly for researchers and analysts to understand exactly what's going on in Preya. I found some research from the last me who was here about the disappearances and I intend to try and continue it without the sue of...tracking chips, which has been unanimously agreed as creepy. There might be an optional carryable version in the future, but either way, a chip can be removed. It's not really a reliable solution of finding out where people go when they vanish.

Other than that, I'm both open to suggestions and things to stick my brain into.

[Bruce]

How are you settling in here, anyway? I don't really get along well with New Year celebrations. Doesn't seem like there's a lot to celebrate lately when being alive isn't all that preferable.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THIS THING?!

WHY DOES IT LIGHT UP AND SING 'SPOOKY SCARY SKELETONS' AND SHOW A BUNCH OF NUMBERS?

WHY DOES IT SHOW A MAN WITH YELLOW SKIN SO SAD AND THEN SO ANGRY?

WHY IS HIS SKIN YELLOW?! WHY DOES HE HAVE FOUR FINGERS?! THIS MAKES NO SENSE!

I'm still amazed. And excited! This really has been the best Christmas in a long time.

I'm engaged!

Loki! Du bisch de Bescht! ♥

( I have received the best holiday gift ever! )

BANNER. WHAT DID YOU DO.

Ooooo! I didn’t get to spend much time on a phone before… It’s so so nice to feel life again. And the winds are amazing! Heh, this form of communication strange. Name’s Necrosis, the Necromancer… Uh the fourth angel of destruction, not that it matters that much anymore. Yo is there any angels around here? I certainly see a whole lotta magic around.

Uh, nice place. When I answered the email, I wasn't a hundred percent convinced this was serious, but... this is alright. Cosy atmosphere, friendly people, warm and inviting.

Course you can't leave but then again maybe it means people can't get in either. And I don't want that purple asshole anywhere near me in the near future.

Anyway, my name's Dr. Bruce Banner, you might find me at Abacus Institute, I have seven PhDs, but I'll try not to ramble. I live in Ravenmoore.

[Warded to people in his Universe]

Okay, am I hallucinating or is there a Stark Tower here?

Tony? Are you alive?

Holy shit. Do I know anyone here?

Let me know, alright, I need to regroup. And I need a coffee. Or something stronger.

I figure it's about time I throw myself out of the frying pan and say a general 'Hello, I exist' to whoever's reading this thing.

Tony Stark. Billionaire. I'm setting up Stark Industries because apparently there's no way out of here, but fuck it, I still have money coming in and it's not going to stop. Might as well spend it on trying to make this place livable.

I think I've seen a few faces I know around here.

[People from his world]

Last thing you remember. Go.

I thought we would have had more time. I hope you’re not gone, but I can’t find you anywhere. Even after everything you’ve done, I find myself wishing I was kinder. Maybe we’ll meet again someday.

Your bunnies are safe with me.

...Did you really have to name your them Good Angela, Better Angela, and Best Angela? I suppose Sigrún now has more friends that I’ll need to rename.

My name is Shouto and I'm curious to know who the top ranking heroes are for each region.

I'm hoping to negotiate a work study beneath one of them, or even multiples should they only be willing to take me on a couple days a week. I don't mind to commute. I have my license so rather than another internship I'd prefer a sidekick role, and can freely use my quirk to assist on patrols and rescue missions. I have training for both.

It's only natural that they are made fully aware of my quirk so I will demonstrate if needed for consideration.
