Save Atlantis RPG

With all this talk of plans for the future, it got me thinking of what I want to do here. I know some of the things I'm good at, but one of the things that kept nagging at my brain was the possibility of starting a flight school. I know we have a bunch of pilots - probably some of the best across universes - along with engineers and mechanics. And flying a plane is different than flying a suit or a broom or a pegasus, but it's what I used to do back before I got promoted to command jobs.

So, any interest in something like this?

We've been through a lot, lately. We've lost loved ones and colleagues, and this war has left gaps behind in our lives, whether it was because someone left Atlantis or because they were lost in the battle. I won't lie and say that those holes ever fill in entirely. My truth is more that you learn to live with them, and you learn how to support the ground that's left, so it doesn't all crumble. There are always going to be moments where I think about the friends I've lost, and one in particular. I often find myself wondering what he would say about the person I am now, about the choices I've made - especially when it's one that has put me in the crosshairs. Birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, all of these moments have a tendency to stir up immense emotions. Or they don't - and that's okay, too.

There's usually a lot of talk about the stages of grief, but I don't like to talk about it that way. That way makes it sound like there's a specific timeline, specific steps we all take, when that is rarely the case. Grief differs between people, it differs day by day, and that's all completely normal. What you feel right now might be different from the person next to you. It might be different from how you feel tomorrow, or a week from now, or six months from now. It's not linear in the way we've been lead to believe. Sometimes you cycle back to emotions you've already felt. Anger, regret, helplessness, betrayal, loneliness, isolation, disbelief, even thankfulness - this can all be part of the process. You might have trouble sleeping. Your appetite might change. You might just feel tired, or maybe you'll feel energized and like you can accomplish a whole lot in one day. You might be angry at the person who is gone, or at those who took them from you, or at yourself for thinking you didn't do enough. There's no one way to grieve for someone or something.

Lean on each other. Be patient with one another. And remember our doors are open for anyone who wants to talk. Or you can message me here if that's more comfortable.

[Misc Team] (James Rhodes, Bobbi Morse, Raksha Keller, Carol Danvers)

We're going to the continuing our search for any straggling COS agents in the mountains. Raksha & Bobbi, I want you two on the ground. Carol and I will be up in the air. Same as before, don't take any chances, and call for back up if you need it.

I could do with a cheeseburge I'm not good at motivational speeches, but you all did pretty damn amazing considering how quickly we were stormed.

I'm sorry for everybody that we lost.

[Tech Department]

Take as much or as little time as you need with your families and friends. I can hold down anything that needs to be done on our end, regardless of whether we have a base to work from or not.

[Anybody on Mako who looked after Morgan - Feel free to assume]

Thank you so much. I owe you big time for taking her on such short notice. I hope she didn't give you too much trouble.

[Peter]

Check in, kid.

[Stephen]

Where are you?

Sam and I were chatting about our grandmama's cooking and now I've got a taste for some good old fashioned down home cooking. Anyone here have a good recipe for proper brisket? Or fried okra? Pecan pie?

Tony
You and Stephen need a date night? I'd be happy to have Morgan for an overnight.

I got the best sleep last night I've had in years, maybe ever. If this is an Atlantis thing, I don't think I'll complain about it.

[OOC Carebear!Sam gave him a night of good dreams instead of the usual bad ones. Thanks, Sam]!

I'm still feeling a little jittery after that clown business a few days ago. It was very odd and I come from a world of very odd.

My own flesh and blood has just upstaged me by walking the dog with two yo-yos at once. That's it. I give up. I'm a sham.

Maybe it's the fairies around today or being talked to at the museum, but I'm longing for a good long flight.

I know there's a few other folks here who can fly - suits, powers, or with the pegasi - anyone up for a little friendly race?

[Sam]
Up for drinks or something sometime? Could use your perspective on something.

Bleu cheese is an abomination against nature.

[Phil Coulson]

Thanks for not Did anyone tell Hey.

[Rhodey]

We don't have to talk about How's Tony, really?

*[Endgame spoilers in comments.]

It's been a long couple of days.

I'd like to introduce you all to Morgan Stark. She could do with some buddies to help her settle in and I know some people here have kids, but I'm not 100% on just throwing her in daycare and leaving her alone just yet.

[MCU]

I don't want to talk about it

[Bella Hartley]

Hey. I know having a kid around the house and then Peter both under my care is probably a bit of whiplash for you, but just let me know if you ever want to like...have friends over, or have a party. I have places I can take Morgan to give you some space if needs be.

That being said, she'll be very happy to meet you.

[Later edited to Natasha]

I doubt you feel like talking because I sure don't, but. Solidarity.

Morgan still needs your kickass influence in her life.

[Stephen Strange]

This is going to sound juvenile..

.. Tony is uncertain of the answer and too scared to ask...


Would you like to join us for his birthday dinner?

49 years old. God fucking damn.

peggy, clint, nat, wanda, rhodey.

How about some tacos tonight?

I'm not entirely certain whether to call this déjà vu or the meddling of a mercurial multiverse. Either way, the timing is certainly less inconvenient than the last time I was here.

I am Dr Stephen Strange, Master of the Mystic Arts and Guardian of the New York Sanctum. I believe I know some of you.

Okay, let's not do that again. Though I'm glad I still have my arm.

Tony? Where are you?


[MCU folks who were in the arena]

You folks okay?

You know, if a shark's going to take a bite of me, it could at least have chosen my leg where I don't have feeling.



Sorry, gallows humor.



Claire, I'm buying you a drink when we get back.

Check in. Is everyone on a raft? Do you see anyone in the water? Who is left here?

[Ellana Lavellan]

How are you? Are you all right?

[Regan Wyngarde]

I'm sorry. I know I've been an ass. Please be
