Oh, God, I lost Mona. What am I going to do? She was a pain in my ass and I think she was ready to kill all the other actors but she could sing...
Please tell me this isn't going to be a disaster.
Wow, hi. There's a lot of you now. I've been doing my best to catch everyone on the way in and give the welcome spiel, but just in case I missed anyone...
Look, Simba. Everything the light touches is our kingdom --
Wait, wrong speech. I'm Peter. Officially, I'm Second-in-Command of the tech departments, but that sounds super intimidating. I'm just the guy you can come to if you need something or need something to happen to get your job done. I know there's a lot of itchy fingers and questions about when we get to work on personal projects, and... trust me, I feel that pain, too. I'm hoping once spring shows up, we'll be able to get some more supplies in here, and I can give some of you a thumbs-up to do your thing. But hang in there, okay?
Oh, holy Christmas cakes. All of you need to come by Childcare immediately because I just got some serious eye candy.
Wow, there are a lot of you. Okay!
This is your official invitation to join me and the kids in my apartment tomorrow night for family game night after dinner. We held one recently to get to know everyone, and you know what? There are more of you. We got Sarah and Kira back, and Tali, your friend Garrus is here now, and you know what? That's just great. We're making room for more family.
Please come! Party games include charades, twenty questions, Pictionary, and a whole host of improv games that actors do. Alcohol is permitted but not necessarily encouraged.I am not avoiding Valentine's Day
I'm not quite sure what the etiquette rules are here for this situation, but between work and hanging out with you guys and little Benjy, I'm not sure my room is really getting much use as it should. Meanwhile, there's a newly open room in your place... Would anyone be opposed if I moved my crash space there?
Uh, thanks. For, y'know, not just knocking me out until everything got fixed. Which, if you haven't heard, it did. So, don't worry about me crawling through the ventilation shafts again.
Hey.
Any luck with those dark alleys?
I heard you were here, so I just wanted to check in and make sure that you're okay. I know it can be a lot to take in, especially when you first get here. The whole other dimensions thing... I knew about them, but it's so different when you're in the middle of it.
Everyone's having the same weird day, huh? Okay, big favor to ask...
If you see a guy who looks like a teenage me, call him Peter and DO NOT tell him anything about clones or Ben Reilly. I'm trying to handle this best I can. Thaaaanks!
I wish we could forget her again. Just that. I'll take all the other memories, if someone could just take away the memories of May.
Bring, bring, bring. Wake up call for the best niece around! If you need a wake up call. Didn't know if you got the sick or did that oversleeping thing we sometimes do because there aren't enough hours in the day and then it catches up. Anyways, it's probably later than you think and Benjy's terrorizing the daycare, so if you need us to pick him up, we can do that.
Hey, have any of you seen Mayday around? She didn't go to pick up Benjy and I haven't been getting any answers back from her.
[Alpha Team: Flash Thompson (TRN123), Steve Rogers, Rocket, Illya, Ringer]This is awkward.Your thoughts on the arrangement, sir?Any advice?
I'm heading out soon to try and track down this dragon or whatever it turns out to be, but we'll meet when I get back. The top brass decided to restructure so here we are. You'll still be doing all the same things you have been in addition to working more as a team. Some of us know each other already, others only in passing. Let's take this opportunity to introduce ourselves and let the team know what skills you have.[Friends*]
I'll start us off. My name's Eugene Thompson but my friends all call my Flash. I was a Corporal in the armed services back home. I did two tours, one in southeast Asia, the other in Iraq. I was wounded in combat, later received the Medal of Honor, then was chosen to participate in a special government program. I'm currently bonded to an alien symbiote that does double duty as a super suit/body armor/whatever I need it to. I'm familiar with weapons and have a background with boxing and wrestling. I'm used to working on my own and leading small squads.
I come from a military background but I'm not going to make any of you stand on ceremony. You can call me Flash or Thompson or Sergeant. Anything as long as it's not "Sarge". Keep your head in the game, pull your weight, and our team will be in good shape.
Guess who made Sergeant? Never thought I'd see the day.
You've been around a long time, right? So you can probably guess what this message is about.
