How would you feel about teaching battle magic?

Added later:
[Magic Class*]

Class is changing from Tuesdays and Thursdays for the next three weeks to Wednesday and Thursdays. For the next three weeks we're focusing on battle magic.

*This filter is open to past students, future students, and potential interested students.

**Just a reminder that OOCly I post an IC/OOC class scene once a month so you know approximately what your character has the opportunity to have learned. September's class post will be in the second half of the month.

***Julia paid the lesson fees, fyi. >>

( Tony, since I’ve known you, you’ve always been my guy. )

This is new.

A whole town. Kind of feels like the circus train, with all the sand and dust, but it's 2018 according to everything here.

I don't remember the countdown this time, and I usually do. It's weird. No new experiment-related costume. No task. Not a fan of these where you have to figure it out along the way. At least the train was simple: here's your job, here's your secret task. Go forth and do as you will.

ROMEO:

I'm assuming that this is one of those experiments like the jungle with the volcano where we have to tough it out and survive. I didn't get any instruction, and these people weren't very helpful.

Then again, you usually like to let us do our own thing and figure it out along the way. If I need any help, I'll try to figure it out on my own, but I might end up asking you anyway.

[Tony Stark (MCU)]

So I had an idea.

Generally less enthused about the Saturday Morning Cartoon experience now than I was going in. Still, I guess I can see the humor in the whole hit-by-a-cartoon-ambulance thing. Packs a bigger punch than a Lego Hulk, as it turns out.

Did you ever get around to sitting down to watch any of the film suggestions, Severus? Whether you did or not I was thinking that perhaps we could make a night of it soon? And, Julia, would you like to join? I found I enjoyed the discussions that were had when the topic was brought up.

What's the news on the store front situation, Lilu? Was it still there? I assume it was. Were you able to get inside?

[Eliot Waugh (canon)]

I realize I haven't checked in since I came home. So I'm checking in. Uh. So hi. I've been a bit busy with something since I got back, but it's vaguely under control. I just didn't want to bother you with it since you've got all your stuff going on and I know you're busy. But don't worry. We'll I'll be okay and home once I feel I can be. If you need me, though, just let me know.

I'll get you caught up on New Orleans stuff soon, too. I mean, I guess I can catch you up here.

[Julia Wicker]

Hey, you. This is my day late check in.

Added in later after Eliot 2 is in bed

[Kurt Wagner]

It's late, but I figured I'd check in and say hi in case I should have already and I haven't. I've been a bit late with check ins.

[Betsy Braddock]

I realize it’s late, so I’m sure you’ll see this sometime tomorrow. If you don’t mind or you’re not to busy in a couple days or whenever. Eliot said you were his top pick after Kylo for the memory stuff. Since we run the risk of entirely forgetting ourselves. I know it’s probably a lot to ask and I don’t really know what to give in return for it, but if you don’t mind, I probably need to stop stalling and do it or I’ll be fucked later. If not, I understand. I just [...] don’t want to forget who I am is all.

» How's he today?
» And you?

[Posted Early in the morning, not long after this scene takes place]

Shit, okay, so Tony had a memory upgrade and with it a horrible injury. Stab wound by a large blade, piercing all the way through his abdomen, coming out the other side. Internal organs are likely to be damaged. Tony's got his nanotech to close the wound and stop the bleeding, but he needs immediate medical attention. We don't want to take him to a local hospital, because how the hell are we going to explain this?

This is a real emergency, we need immediate help. I'm freaking out here

Who: Tony Stark (MCU) & Julia Wicker
What: Tony finally gets that IW update and some super fun surprises. Like an injury from Thanos and an engagement to Pepper Potts his friends might have forgot to mention. Oops.

So I walked outside and was greeted by an unfamiliar site.

I was going to leave it alone, but it just seemed so pitiful and kept meowing, so I got food on the way back from getting my coffee.

[ FILTERED TO CAROL DANVERS ]
So I have a favor to ask you.

( Greetings from Zimbabwe. )

There's apparently a website with themed teas and I have my own tea. I'm a little curious to see how I taste. Julia, I bought your tea since we come as a two pack. Apparently our teas have hooked up.

Napoleon, since you insist on following me everywhere I go with this international marketing campaign, some thoughts:

1. I'm pretty sure Gillette paid for that mustache.
2. If you can punch the air and make that noise I will pay you five whole dollars per fist to see it.

Edit: If you would like to see Napoleon attempt to punch the air and make sound effect noises, ten dollar minimum buy in. Proceeds go to a local no kill animal shelter. Comment to leave your pledge.

Thank you for the spell. I hope it helped whoever you made it for.

We've got a potential solution. Julia, when can you get here?

FILTER TO VOLTRON

We've come up with a possible solution. Once it's tested, I'll let you all know. Figured you'd want the update.

FILTER TO THALIA GRACE

Hi. My name is Alice Quinn. We've not spoken.

Myself and my associates have been working to try to reverse the transformations that were caused by the fruit you found. We're testing it soon but if it works, would you like one of us to come to you and help the effects be reversed? Do you know of anyone else who has been affected or that took the berries from you? I've already been in touch with Pidge, Hunk, Keith and Julia.

PSA: If you find a patch of wild blackberries, don't eat them.

[Tony Stark (904913)]

I’m not going to be at work today. Maybe tomorrow. I’ll keep you posted.

[Marina]

Can you handle class tonight with Pixie? I have a minor situation. Don’t eat the blackberries I brought home.

(OOC Note: There will be an IC/OOC post for the magic class being taught that covers the whole month of July so that those who participate know what their characters are studying. Look for that post closer to this weekend.)

[Tony Stark (MCU)]

I'm not going to make it tonight. Rain check?

ELIOT WAUGH & QUENTIN COLDWATER:

You get anything out of Alice? Or should I go in guns blazing?

MAGICIANS:

I'm going to be heading out of town soon to help stop some poachers. I'm planning on researching the hell out of some warding spells to protect those elephants, but I'm willing to take any suggestions.

There's a blackberry patch near the back of Miller's Wood and they're incredible. I might actually get sick if I eat all of these though. Anyone want some? I'm just hanging out at Camp Half-blood.

Is anyone on this network adept at selling things through the Internet?

So remember how I told you gods were assholes?

This* is a just in case. Although I should warn you, it comes with consequences. On my world using it meant the gods taking magic from humans in retaliation so...

I trust your judgment.

Those of you interested in learning the wandless casting style from my world, I'm going to offer free classes every Tuesday and Thursday starting next week, from 3:00pm to 4:30pm at [location*]. It'll start basic, mostly to help some of you get hand gestures down who haven't used them before.

Tony, Alice. Alice, Tony.

Both of you are working on studying the portal and I thought you'd make a good team. During the power swap week, Tony ended up with my magic and we've worked on a few projects together so he has a fairly good understanding of what we can do.

Also both of you are brilliant and aren't afraid to get into trouble. Discuss.

I know you wanted to pay me for taking you to the beach, and I appreciate it, but I'm not running a business. Besides, I got to discover a new beach. It wasn't exactly torture. Let me know next time you need to get away. I had fun.

FILTER TO JULIA WICKER

Can I recruit your help for something?

So does anyone want to make some money and take me to some awesome aquariums? Also we might go swimming at some point if you want to stick around. I need to stretch my tail and my little hint of ocean is not doing it for me right now.

There's some really stunning places outside of the country, but I've heard the aquarium in Atlanta is really nice, too.
