Uh, so. First of all, hey!

We're back from our trip out to Raven Rock. We've got supplies and samples, and we managed to figure out what happened to the people who were holed up there.

... Which means Martha thinks it's best if we're all quarantined until further notice, just until we all get totally clean bills of health. The disease that got Raven Rock shouldn't still be viable, but we're not taking any chances.

So we're all here, we just can't have welcome-back hugs just yet. And you can't hug the stuff we brought back, either. Give it a couple days and we'll be all good.

Maybe I will go out again until you all go back to normal. I don't like this.

I can't believe I

I know we're all recovering from what happened and Christmas is right around the corner — I don't want to pile too hard on anyone's plate, but I wanted to make everyone aware of where I've been.

I flew out to the Raven Rock Mountain Complex in Pennsylvania, another nuclear bunker like this one. In the war, it housed important Pentagon employees, but as far as I can tell they didn't survive like the community at Mount Weather. Still trying to figure out exactly what happened. They might have run out of food. I didn't get too involved in searching for answers yet. There's no evidence of slaughter, at least, but I will say this: the place isn't ... abandoned. It's Creepsville. Seriously.

So: I need to put together a small team to head out there after the new year to pick through what they have and bring back any usable supplies. It's mostly salvage and scrap metal at this point, but we can always use that.

Volunteer if you:
  • Have flight or teleportation ability over long distances.

  • Have some military and/or survival training.

  • Are over age 18.


If we have a teleporter capable of taking other people alone we might consider people who can't fly, but because of weather, supplies, and the situation with the Grounders, we can't risk any kind of long-distance travel on foot.

All volunteers need to be approved by myself and the Council. We're not risking lives by taking someone out who's unprepared or lies about being qualified.

STEVE:
I still can't believe I missed all this. I leave for what, four days, and we get attacked? I could have helped. Christ.

[...] Look, I'm not going to tell you to stay in bed or anything but take care of yourself and don't push. There's time to recover, so just be good to yourself.

I wasn't sure my life could get anymore completely fucked up, but somehow it has managed.

I arrived yesterday. It's over a hundred years in the future for me here. I guess things don't turn out so well for Earth or the people on it. All of my advocating for climate change did absolutely bloody hell, so there's that.

Ugh. Stop being negative, Emily. This is a grand adventure, right?

Fuck it all. I'm Emily Fitch and I'm probably a fangirl of at least half of you. Because I've been spending the past two years doing nothing but watching telly and reading comics. I will not apologize for swooning when I meet Harry Potter.

So, I've been thinking.

It's definitely not easy being in a new place all alone, as a lot of us are, or at least without most of our friends/family/other loved ones, and I've seen people talking about being bored/that there isn't enough to do here, which I totally get. When I'm done working, sometimes all I want to do is stare at the wall because I think I work more continuous hours here than I did at home and it's not as varied (superhero work might not pay well, but it's never exactly the same!), and when everyone is busy with their jobs at different hours, that doesn't leave as much time to randomly chat up that cute person in the hallway as you might think. It's easy to think, oh, I can do that tomorrow or they're probably on their way somewhere, I shouldn't bug them. But I think this is the perfect place to throw caution to the wind and go for something if you really want it. What do you have to lose? We never know what the future has in store for us, here or anywhere else, and it's going to be a long winter.

So, I'm hosting a SPEED DATING night on Saturday! The idea is you'll get a few minutes to chat with someone awesome, and maybe you'll really hit it off and get to take them to movie night. Or you might just meet a new friend, who knows! Either way, you'll meet people and get to hang out and have fun.

FRIENDS:
Anya, you're going. :)
JOHNNY STORM:
You get to help me. :)

Oh wow. Wow. Do you guys get that a lot? The wow factor? Because this is crazy. Amazingly, totally crazy.


Ummmmm hi. This is supposed to be an introduction and all I'm doing is standing around like a dummy saying wow. I'm Kara and I'm a new arrival. Obviously, I'm sure you all kind of got that by the "wow" thing. They told me that there's other people here with... powers and stuff? That sounds stupid, when I say it like that. Or not stupid, just weird. But anyway, I need to do some testing of mine because of the radiation and other science mumbo-jumbo that I didn't really understand and I could use a partner?


This sounds like a dating ad for Superheroes. ... IS there anything like that? Asking for a friend. Annnd now I'm going to end the most awkward first post of all time. Hi, again.

» They were not there with me, on the ice.
» The Defiler was dead, in the book. And yet, I fought him, and I killed him.

Hi. My name is Sue Storm. And it says that right there. This is stu [...] I'm a new arrival. And I was told I should introduce myself.

I'll be working in tech as an engineer.

[Filtered to Johnny]
Happy now?

I have talked them into allowing meThe doctors have cleared me for 'light duty', whatever that is.

Strange medical wards with doctors wandering around = not exactly my favorite thing in the world these days. So, sorry. About the face, to the cute guy.

They told me I was here before, so I can skip the "get to know me" questionnaire? Lydia Martin. I don't suppose anyone's built a Starbucks and a Nordstrom yet?

I have a Were-Coyote for sale, if anyone's interested. She won't stop hovering.

Very interesting magic you all have here.

I am told this is where I am to make my introductions. I am Fili of the House of Durin.

You know, I knew I wasn't a morning person, but I guess I didn't realize that I literally wasn't myself in the mornings.

I ate a leaf today. It was not tasty and I don't recommend it.

[ Filtered to Anya's Group ]

Did we decide a name? I can't remember it, so it probably was terrible.

But I've decided I want to learn how to go full-coyote. It was something that ran in my family - my actual, evil family - and I think it could come in handy here.

But I might eat someone. So, it should probably be one of you, since most of you are super-powered.

I mean, I hope it won't go that way. But in case it does, you would be my preference in putting me down.

Johnny and I have an announcement!



We're throwing a Halloween party.

Technically it's a festival, and I know that a bunch of scary monsters and things like that probably aren't super appealing, so it'll be more... just fun. We'll have games and not-scary Halloween stuff. And some scarier stuff for anyone who likes that, but we're really trying to make a good mix, so everyone can have fun.

I'm not going to tell you about everything we're doing, but if someone wants to volunteer to run a murder mystery game, or be part of the haunted house, hit me up.

And if you want to help us with decorations and games, let one of us know! We'll need the help to get it all together, but I promise it'll be a lot of fun.

Okay. My turn now that my brother's stopped hogging the not quite a holonet device thing.

Hey! I'm Jaina. Still, not quite the weirdest kidnapping ever. And, I'm going to be working as a scout. Which is almost as good as a pilot. I guess.

I'm not really sure how we're going about bringing other people into this, but I guess we're probably a democracy, so: I invited Johnny Storm. Yes/hell yes? He's the only one from his world here, so I think he could use some friends. He's pretty cool.

Hey, you got a minute?

[info]featherington

If I were in England, and this were 1824, such an announcement as this would be printed in the newspapers, or given at a ball. My own father would take care of it, or the head of my family -- or, in many cases, the bridegroom. In any case, I am overjoyed to tell you all, our friends and neighbors, that this evening Cullen asked me to give him my hand in marriage. I, naturally, said yes, because I love him.

Perhaps to some, the notion of marriage isn't as important as it is elsewhere, but I believe that it is. Pledging to love and honor another, to share your life with them formally, and to celebrate that love with one's friends and family is even more necessary here. We haven't yet set a date, but that will be coming soon.
