Saint asked if I wanted to go get a drink, and I have to be honest with you - the idea of a couple of hours in the presence of only grown ups both horrifies and excites me. So is there any day in the next week or so that you might be ok to watch Daisy for a couple of hours? I won't be late, and she'll be fed and bathed and hopefully almost sleeping when I drop her off.

[Locked to Tony S.]

Stark Phone, huh?

[Locked to Bruce B.]

Checking in.

[Locked to Obi-Wan Kenobi]

Hi, it's the woman from the party. Can we meet up somewhere to talk? I [...] need to distract myself. [Because winter term was rapidly drawing to a close, and this hotel stuff was starting to get to her. A change of scenery would do her good.]

[Filtered to Thor, Tony S, Bruce B, Steve R]

I've made a decision. I'm going to continue to be an Avenger, and I intend on getting to know the Avengers from the other dimension better so that I can work with them as a team.

I'd like to know which of you also intend to continue to be a part of the team. I think the time has come where it needs to be stated - and acted upon. Because if anything, the last year has proved that as a group we only appear to be able to act as a team when emergencies arise, but other than that? We're not a team. We're not what the Avengers should be. Yes, we're what Fury meant to create, but I don't believe that is how we should continue.

What I've learned from the others is that a team should be more than a group of people who work together to get things done. They should be friends. A family. And we're not.

But we could be. If we want. So I'm asking if any of you do.

[ETA: Filtered to Lady Avengers + Clint B]
I'm curious - is the Avengers Mansion locked or is there a secret knock?

[After things calm some in Gotham.] Honey?

[Visiting a hospital in 2001 Las Vegas wasn't on Max's bucket list, but she figured it was better than Victorian London. No offense to 1900-something, but she just wasn't good with dresses, and she was pretty sure the jeans and grey Army sweatshirt she was currently wearing wouldn't go down very well in a door that involved cats and rabbits. Not that she was a stranger to the door; she remembered that dormouse with annoyance, at best. But it wasn't so bad, all things considered. Smokes tucked into her pocket and her Ruger tucked into the back of her jeans, she got to the door early, after a morning run and quick shower.

She did a quick canvas of the area around the door, then she found the hospital and propped a bathroom door out into the hotel hall. Not particularly pleasant, but it served the purpose would save them the time of finding the hospital when the hotel door opened onto some other public place the next time.

She didn't check her hair in the bathroom mirror, and she didn't add lipstick or powder. She was still going for 'I don't care' casual. She thought she was doing a good job of pulling it off.]

In the hotel hallway, she lit a smoke and leaned against the wall to wait for McKendrick. Shoulders against the mouldering wallpaper, hips forward and her dark hair in artless waves around age-sharp cheekbones.

WHO GOT A NEW STARK PHONE?? (not me, but I need to know who to be jealous of)

( I never knew how much I needed this video in my life until now )

Who: Helena
What: Saying goodbye
Where: Batcave
When: Immediately following delivery of Damian
Warnings/Rating: Uh feels? Caring for the recently departed?

( Damian wasn't supposed to be dead. He was supposed to be stopped, Bruce was supposed to bring back a living, breathing baby bird who still loved his family, who had a family that still loved him enough to find him and bring him home.  )

( Addressed to Alfred, left jutting up between the second and third row of keys on a keyboard in the cave. )

[Locked: "Gem"/"Toothsome"]
[On her way back to Tokyo, immediately after this and before the great burn.]

Ready for trouble?
