the displaced; ic

I think we've been all noticing something off the past few days, but there's been an increased Atlantean military presence along the coastline since yesterday.

I've talked to a few of them and I'm getting some standard bullshit like "Military training exercises" and that there's nothing to worry about, but I'm officially calling it: I'm concerned and we need to get our ducks in a row.

[ EDIT: FILTERED TO STEVE ROGERS ]
Hey, I'm hoping to call a time out on the break until this situation is resolved. I don't want to go through other people to make sure you're okay.


EDIT: If you want to help, flyers go see Ray, swimmers see Remy, and magic users go to Eliot.

Since we're talking about emergency plans, a message for the tech geeks. Dr Aphra and Ezekiel Jones are discussing a command centre to handle communications - both alerting everyone to emergencies and making sure no one gets cut off during an active situation. I'll also be there to keep track of the information we receive and assign tasks to mobile response units so we don't get some things being forgotten while too many people go somewhere else and I believe Charles will be with us as a telepath. If anyone has hardware or skills that would help, they're the two to talk to.

Personally speaking, I can work with a whiteboard or pencil and paper if I have to but coding an interactive map of the ship I can manipulate on a tablet would be more effective. I can do it myself but I know we have some coders around who might be able to do a better job.

Incidentally the Coffee Bar is actually ridiculously good. Let's not have aliens steal all our coffee this time.

I really do hope my future in this new future has less needles going forward. That was unpleasant.

My name is Napoleon Solo and, while all of this is marvelous and fascinating in all of its aspects, I'm quite eager to locate my associate, Gabriella Teller, before I start asking more questions. I'm told she is here as well. She is approximately 5'5", brunette, brown eyes, impeccable fashion choices, stubborn, and bossy.

It's very likely she has punched someone by now and if that someone is you, well, I'm sure you deserved it.

Care for a drink?

It looks like John Watson and Sherlock Holmes have gone. I should probably specify from the BBC since I know there's more than one Sherlock here.

I have a hunch how you'll reply, but I'm going to ask regardless, are you alight?

Fɪʟᴛᴇʀᴇᴅ ᴛᴏ Tʜᴇ Dᴏᴄᴛᴏʀ (9ᴛʜ)

I think we should spend the day together, what do you think?

Accidentally walked into a champagne brunch and decided to stick around for fun. I am a fancy princess after all.

Happy Birthday, brother mine. I do hope you enjoy the present I gave you, a holiday on a cruise liner.

If anybody is looking for me, I'm in the Connoisseur's Lounge.

My trousers are snug. This is unacceptable.

I've decided the problem with Tumbleweed is that it affords me far too much free time. I shall be remedying that. For Christmas I was gifted a piano, and while it had been a long while since I played, I was able to in no time at all. I've also been meaning to join that local gym.

[Text to Mycroft Holmes, v late tonight]
Let's get a drink tomorrow.

I found a book about Norse Mythology and Loki and I are in it!

Loki, you will not believe what they said about you!


[Bucky (original flavor), Rogue, Scott]

I tried working for Jessica Jones with Bucky, it did not go well. I'll come back to that at another time. While the Avengers house provides me with food, I would like to give back, and therefore need money. What I'm getting at is that I would like to have a job at EPS. I was told last I was here I worked as a "PE teacher," with another Bucky. I could do that again. Or if you have something else in mind, I am open to it. Thank you.

Amidst all the confusion of people changing their identities, there's been a murder in front of my flat.

IT IS TIME TO BUILD A SNOWMAN!

People are brought to Tumbleweed, and people disappear - I haven't been here that long, but it's not difficult to see the flickering nature of our situation. We are sojourners temporarily thrown together, it's ridiculous to grieve.

[Text Message to Sherlock Holmes]

>> I presume you also received a letter from Father Christmas.

[Text Message to Emma Frost]

>> Have you become as weary as I over the same questions being asked over and over again on the network?

[Text Message to Mordecai Roberts]

>> Are you I happened by the theater the other night whilst the cast was rehearsing.

I decorated.

So I realize we've got a lot of metahuman training that goes on around here, but I was thinking of putting together some non-metahuman training sessions for folks that don't have powers if anyone is interested. I've got advanced combat training under my belt, but I'd like to learn other things and I bet if we worked together we'd be able to get that accomplished.

So I'm pretty sure we can do this at Logan's gym. He's been pretty open about that sort of thing. My only concern with doing non-metahuman training is to minimize the chance of injuries. I think we can learn a lot from each other, and maybe we can do mixed training once we're stronger in order for everyone to get better and learn as a team?

Plus, it'll be good to work off this bloated post-food coma that I'm still in.

I like Fred. Generous, idealistic fellow, not a hint of mercenary about him. It will be a stretch.

I have no experience with Thanksgiving before last year's, but I do find I've quite a bit to be grateful for. Would you want to do something? It might be a good time to I've never attempted a turkey, so I can't make any promises.

[Sherlock Holmes (BBC)]

Thoughts based on what we've seen so far?

[Mycroft Holmes]

How are the renovations coming? It sounded like quite a project.

My first weekend in Tumbleweed was spent with plaster, paint and one too many exhausting trips to the hardware store.

Does anybody here do handyman work? The labor I hired are unsatisfactory.

[Private to Padme]

Ms Naberrie, may I introduce myself; I am Mycroft Holmes. You might have already been notified about me. I have been given a post in the Mayor's office, and shall be working along side of you.

My name is Mycroft Holmes. Specifically, the Mycroft Holmes from BBC's Sherlock, not the U.S. version, Elementary.

Yes, I'm aware there are multiples of people present, including two pairs of Sherlocks and Watsons, and yes, I've been doing my research. There's not much else to do whist in quarantine.

For any interested parties, I was previously in Preya before I was brought to Tumbleweed.

As I write, I ought to be released from quarantine in approximately 29 hours from now. Neither my flat from London nor Preya has appeared with me, but I've been told something has been arranged. I do hope it's adequate. All that remains is to secure some sort of gainful employment which isn't too mundane.
