I must have been a good girl, because our benevolent portal overlord has seen fit to bestow upon me a beautiful set of wheels in just my color.

( photograph attached )

I need an expert in clothes to assist me - particularly, jeans.

[ FILTERED TO TMFU ]
Gaby, come dancing with me on Friday? Rogue's organizing, but a group of us are going to NYC to find a club to our liking. Illya, you're welcome to come along as well, but I will be stealing Gaby away from you for the night if she'll let me.

[ FILTERED TO HERR WAGNER ]
I haven't seen much of you on the network, but a few of us are going to New York City this Friday for a night out in the clubs, organized by your sister. Care to join us? Quentin will be there as well.

I know people are a lil all over the place because of the whole power swap thing that's happened to some, but is anyone up for heading to NYC this Friday to go dancing?

If you're worried about powers going outta control my offer to help with that still stands.

So Friday. NYC. Dancing. Who's in?

Going on day four of no magic. Still sucks a lot, but I'm handling it, so there's that. Still haven't figured out where my magic went, but I have a plan for that and I'm kind of hoping it works because that'll probably be easier than asking around all week. I've been checking in to see if anyone's said anything, but I haven't seen anything so far, so I guess I can say I tried.

[Filtered to whoever got my magic (aka Rose Red)]

Can you see this??? Not that I'd know who you are, but I'm not even sure this is going to work.

I am not sure whose unique skill set I have been instilled with, but I do rather hope I get to keep the metabolism once this matter is resolved. The heightened senses and ability to climb walls seem rather secondary to being able to put back an entire breakfast platter at JJ's without it affecting my figure.

[Doctor (12)]

How would you feel about providing transportation to the Channel Islands on Friday for a teacher and his student? I'll make it worth your while.

My name is Koriand'r. A friend tells me I should seek employment. As I do not blend in with Earthlings, working among you would be ideal. I have no specific skills that I remember from my time on Earth. All I know is my time with Jason and my life on my home planet: I am a warrior. So, if you have a need for an instructor of that nature, I would kindly ask for your consideration.

Who: Gaby Teller & Napoleon Solo
What: Gaby and Napoleon discuss the nature of family and try to put the past behind them.
Where: Their suite on the cruise ship.
When: The night after the pirate attack.
Warnings: None.

I'm still handsome af, but something's decidedly different. Oh yeah, I've got it!

What happened to my beautiful blueness??!

And my tail, and my ears, and my teeth?

I've also got far too many fingers, now. How do you guys ever manage with all of them?

[ FILTERED TO KADY'S ROBBERY CREW ]
Good job, team. I'll have the money laundered and back to you within two weeks. Celebratory breakfast in the morning at my place.

[ FILTERED TO TMFU + ROGUE (616) ]
Job's done. No issues. I'll see you all in the morning for breakfast, if you're hungry. I'm cooking.

[ FILTERED TO ILLYA KURYAKIN ]
Peril, I would appreciate it, that if you have a problem with me or something I'm doing, that you refrain from involving others in it. Quentin didn't know about the heist and now that he does, he'll be a bundle of nerves and worries until it's over.

Also, I'm cooking dinner tomorrow night when you don't have a shift, so be home then.

[ FILTERED TO ROGUE (616) ]
Well, at least Illya's making it very easy to get over him. Want to go off school premises for lunch? Because I need something stronger than to drink than anything the vending machines offer.

Dinner tonight? I'm cooking tomorrow for Illya and you as well, but just us tonight?

Things I didn't expect to be hearing today "doll up" "book up" "dog up" and then when I looked in the living room seeing my baby girl levitating her doll, Goodnight Moon, and Sorcha in the air.

The poor Irish wolfhound is currently trying to hide out under my bed.

I'm gonna need to get some extra treats at the store today.

I realize it is a school night and I will probably regret this when I have to be up in the morning, but who else can't sleep? Anyone want to Netflix & Chill? Did I use that right?

Additionally, we should probably discuss the timeline for our heist.

FILTERED TO FRIENDS, FAMILY & COWORKERS*

On Friday, I'm going to be hosting a small barbecue here at the Cottage. Some of you may know by now but yesterday evening my wife, Fen, arrived here in Tumbleweed and I would like to have the opportunity to introduce her to each and every one of you. If you cannot make it, as I know this is short notice, I understand and hope that we can arrange for her to be introduced to you at some future point in time.

* As long as you don't regularly piss him off, there's a good possibility you are in on this filter. It's a wide net.

Hello, I am Fen, Acting High King of Fillory.

I understand my friends my subjects the High King is here in this city, and I wish to speak to my fellow Fillorians. Please.

[ TEXT MESSAGES TO NAPOLEON SOLO ]

>> I caved and let him drive on the way home.

( cut for a photo of an unusually smiley Illya )

>> Thanks for letting us spend the weekend with Amelia.

Right so, I ain’t sure when we’ll be actually needing this, but I’ve gone and set up an emergency location for the Displaced for whenever shit hits the fan and we can’t go staying here in Tumbleweed. While I’d really like something like those bracelets we all had on the cruise for teleporting everyone no matter where they might be to be around for use, they just ain’t. Hit me up if’n ya think you can make something like that.

I’ve been working to finish adding up housing options and gotten some people to help limit the path of the local fauna that might’ve caused us all some issues if they were allowed to run around everywhere. It runs on solar power and backup generators. Wind power is getting installed soon once I figure out where would be best to go setting it up. There’s a greenhouse that’s already up and running and livestock are getting settled in this week.

[Pretend there's some pictures inserted here for everyone to see.]

So if’n you’re wanting access to it, what you’re gonna need is a portal set up in your house or your place of business (if its Displaced owned). Put your name down here if ya want in and we’ll get ya set up. Just like on the cruise, only the Displaced will be able to head through them there and back.

Hopefully it won't need to be used, but better to have something in place than not.

While Leo and I are enjoying our one on one lessons, I would love to have more students to teach.

So EPS students who think German is overrated (all the love to you, Rogue and Gaby!), come to my French class.

Poker night. 6pm, my place. [address] Dress to impress.

Mal and I got married.

Yay.

Has anyone traveled with their Pokemon yet? It's become apparent that the residents of Tumbleweed are willing to look the other way when it comes to the peculiarities among those of us that are displaced, but does that extend beyond the town limits?

[ ILLYA KURYAKIN ]

What would you say to a weekend away, just the two of us? It occurs to me that it's been three months since you and I became a you and I, and maybe we ought to celebrate.

WHO: 18+ Displaced Adults
WHEN: April 13th, 2018 - Evening (Forwarddated)
WHERE: U.N.C.L.E.
WHAT: A little get together for the Displaced adults who need a break from the doom and gloom, as well as a small birthday surprise for two birthday boys.
WARNINGS: Drinking
STATUS: IC/OOC

( And at approximately at 9:30 PM, two cakes were brought out for Penny Adiyodi & Quentin Coldwater... )

For those who are not already regulars and familiar with the Howlett Gym schedule, I teach a class in nonmagical defense against magic, a particular specialty of mine and one that I would argue is exceptionally useful in a place like this. It is open anyone, including magical folk, who can alternate between magical sparring and nonmagical sparring, to help others practice and to learn the skills themselves to fight without their magic.

In fact, I would greatly appreciate more magic folk joining in, to give students a wide range of types of magic to learn to defend themselves against. Alina helps me regularly with her light magic, but as she is not allowed to actually cut anyone in half, she sometimes gets bored with blinding people.

If you have an ability that is technically non-magical but makes you more powerful than the average person, I might be willing to work you in as well. Let me know if you're interested, and we can discuss your abilities beforehand so that I can formulate a lesson plan. This has always been on a volunteer basis, or rather you would be considered a regular participant in the class; however, I might be willing to pay a few people out of my own pocket if they bring important skills to the table, especially since I know money is a concern for everyone right now. If that's something you're interested in, we can discuss it further, and of course the gym owner, Laura, would have to sign off on it as well.

The class meets Monday through Friday, 4 PM - 5:30 PM. I hope to see you there.

( evite sent out to 18+ members of the displaced )

A few announcements.

• The Ellie Phimister School will be resuming classes full time on Monday, April 16, 8:30 A.M..
  
• Students who have yet to register for courses should do so before Monday, current students may wish to revisit their schedules.
  
• Anyone needing placement tests should contact us ASAP about setting those up.
  
• The Ellie Phimister School is also currently seeking teachers for

  Art History, Music, Band, Journalism, Computer Science, French, Astronomy, Environmental Science, History, Courses not yet offered, and someone for our Early Childhood program (largely a daycare for young, superpowered children)

[ FILTERED TO TMFU ]
So you're staying with me, I won't hear any arguments about it.

Next order of business... there's a lot going on. Clearly. But I feel like we - as in the community - could benefit from an evening of being social. Where people can mingle and exchange thoughts on jobs and what they may do here now that we're in Texas.

And since the pool is here, it only makes sense that I combine the slumber party I wanted with a pool party. Thoughts?

[ FILTERED TO FRIENDS* ]
Just checking in. Please don't overwork yourselves.

*ooc; If you've talked to him on a regular basis, you're a friend. If you've slept with him, you're a friend. If you're still unsure, ask!

Alright, so we need two sets of round the clock patrols. One's for the perimeter for the Fort Neill Military Base and one is for the portal room itself, even if we can't get into it right now.

We need volunteers. Shifts will be six hours long, so double what we were doing for patrols back on the ship. 18+ for right now. Comment to the shift that you want. Specify days if you can't do every day. We need powerful and uninjured fighters right now, so if you don't fit the bill, there's plenty of other things you can help with. Right now, we can't pay you, but we'll figure out something to make sure you're taken care of.

Multiple people needed for each shift.

FOOD/DONATIONS, JOB HELP, FORT NEILL FILING, IDENTITIES

[ FILTERED TO TONY STARK (MCU) ]
Right, so this is a big ask considering it's me asking, but I don't really trust anyone else or know them well enough to ask them for this - I need a new arm. My old one is fried from the EMP and I've been armeless since. I was going to ask Shuri, but she's in a new world, dealing with plenty enough, and I really don't know her. And I guess I really don't know you too, but I've known enough Tony Starks in my lifetime to know your capabilities.

If you don't want to do this, I get it and don't hold it against you. Ignore this if you need to. I won't ask again.

We ain't too sure how long it'll take to get everyone the IDs they'll need for living and working here. Tony's setting up a fund for food, money, and other donations to get things going for ya until everything gets sorted.

If'n you're in need of food donations or the like please let us know where you're at and how many are in your household. The Ellie Phimister School will be accepting any food donations you might got and we'll also be where you can pick up what you're needing until further notice.

[Private to Napoleon Solo]

So apparently there's this meeting of royalty dinner thing tonight and you're invited. If you're not busy. If you are, we can always do something post dinner. I just figured I'd see.

But if not and you're interested in dinner with a lot of attractive royalty (and company), I am considering wearing suspenders.

added in later

[Private to Rogue (616)]

So I hear you have pictures of Napoleon with a pink tent and I am about 100% sure that I need these pictures. Please. It's important to me to see him with this pink tent.

He basically already said I could have them, so...

I got this adorable lil one following me around the last three islands I've been to so I think we're gonna be calling him a member of the family.



I reckon he's a fan of the electromagnetic fields me and Anka Irene keep putting out. Ain't too sure what he's called though.

[Senior X-Men]

And alright. I need to admit that I'm a lil in over my head here and need suggestions on how to teach my daughter that she can't go creating or destroying whatever she would like to at the drop of a hat.

She seems to be picking up on the cues when I ain't all that happy that she decided to go making things outta thing air or disappearing things. But that kinda only works as an after the fact thing. Not a preventative one. Ten month olds ain't the easiest to try and reason with though.

Help?

So apparently this possible flower crown of a Pokemon is really good at healing, which like...is very important. I don't actually know that much about Pokemon, but I wasn't really into the games when I was younger. My dad got me a pack for my birthday once, but mostly it was just magic kits and stuff. Thanks for posting information about the Pokemon on here, though, because I'd have had no idea and probably traded something we'd all apparently need. Also I guess it's kind of cute.

It had plenty of flowers to choose from on the boat, so it seems pretty at home now. I never really considered myself a flower Pokemon sort of person, but then I never really considered myself a Pokemon sort of person, so I guess that's not really surprising or different. King Quentin of the flower crowns, I guess. Or I can stick with Moderately Socially Maladjusted. It just seemed shorter.

I'd like everyone to meet Bobby. That's what I named him.

I just thought, well, he looks like a more casual Robert.

Hey you. Wanna join Anka Irene and I for a day or two at this new place?

In Russia for Easter, my мама would make kulich, the traditional Easter cake. She could have gone to gulag for this, but she was always ardent in her faith. And a very good baker.

This Easter, I am stuck in bed with two broken ribs and concussion. I am tired of wearing sunglasses everywhere, but if I do not, the headache is very bad.

I know you do not have kulich, but can you bring me chocolate at least?

[ FILTERED TO GABY TELLER & ILLYA KURYAKIN ]
I'll come back in the morning, but the medbay was getting crowded. I'm going to assist in the cleanup and check on some others in the meantime.

Alright, with the pirates moving the hell on and the ship back in operating order we need to figure out a few things.

How many of ours are hurt?
Do we got any sort of numbers? I know the medbay seemed to be pretty dang packed when I was down there. The robots seem to be back online to work with fixing people but medical personnel what else are y'all needing? Should we continue triage in a separate area for more minor injuries y'all can deal with?

From the doctors: Small things that just need an antiseptic, sutures, or ice and rest can be done in the adjacent areas

Does every kid got someone to go home to right now?
If not we're gonna need to pair them up with people if'n their parents/guardians are hurting. Or keep up the school being a place for them to stick to. If we do that we're gonna need others to stay down there with them.

We'll keep kids at the school until one of their guardians is able to come and retrieve them. Or someone in their guardians place.

Clean Up?
Who's available and NOT needing to be in the medbay or in bed resting to help out with cleanup?

Is all the ship back in order?
Anyone able to help us figure out if'n anything is still offline?

So about this school budget...

I am preparing myself for the joy that is Karaoke night on Saturday because I'm totally ready for it.

I mean, it's like days in advance, but this way I can figure out what songs I'm thinking about. Plus, then if anyone needs a partner for a duet, I'm free.

[ FILTERED TO NAPOLEON SOLO & ILLYA KURYAKIN ]

How are we feeling this morning, Napoleon? Recovered your manners, I hope.

We’ve gotten a lot of departures and new arrivals, so I wanna tighten up what our plans are in case the boat is attacked. Any non-combatants need to make their way to the school, on foot or via the portals that are set up. We’ll have people defending that area as well as other areas on the ship.

If’n ya be a combatant if'n the ship does get attacked, post here and let me know which deck ya wanna help out on. If you’re a doctor or able to help with the part of ambulance by flying or teleporting people also let me know here. And anyone who can help out with tech/comms please be letting me know here too.
