BRAKEBILLS, STEPHEN STRANGE, PIXIE & BONNIE BENNETT

I'm not sure who has or hasn't seen Bucky's post by this point but I suggest you take a glance here for a full rundown. The short of it, and why I'm reaching out, is there is possibility the ship could get compromised and we'll need to have a quick escape ready to go. Portals obviously are the best option. We've already had plenty of practice setting up the one's on every deck that lead to the school so this really shouldn't be any more difficult then what we've already done. We just need to set up new ones that will lead off ship. Bucky's informed me that there is a community center that the locals go to in these situations so that should be where we set up these new portals to go.

We'll need to make the new portals distinguishable from the previous ones. I'm thinking bright, neon signage?

I also think that we should have one every deck. There's enough of us that are capable of setting these up that it shouldn't be an issue. Now, no one has to agree to do the work, but if you all do, it'll go smoother. Margo and Quentin, if you two help out, that gives us four definitive users to divide between thirteen decks (you both, myself, and Dr. Strange). Pixie, I didn't know if you'd want to help out or not, but if you do, I'd like you to work with me or Margo. And Bonnie and I will be getting to know one another as well, so you two can meet at the same time if you decide to come with me.

Penny, I know what you and Alice's magic situation is like right now but I've included you both. In the even we need to utilize the portals, we are going to want to try to have people directing those trying to evacuate to the appropriate portal, just in case they miss the signs. We won't know if and when this all goes down, so who knows where all of us will be, but I was thinking that perhaps you can help all of us get back onto the ship to help evacuate? In the event we are out and about Atlantis when it goes down?

KYLO REN

Sweetheart, I think we ought to resume our conversation about the kyber.

ROGUE

We're about to start getting the new portals set up. I was thinking we could identify where they are on the map of the cruise ship. Would that be helpful?

THE NEW YEARS EVE GROUP (MARGO, MAX, ELSA, REY & VALKYRIE)

Let's go to the bar tonight?

MARGO HANSON & MAX GUEVARA

Also, can I take a moment to complain and you all not hold it against me?

LANCE

First day after we leave port, do you want to go to the spa with me?

BRAKEBILLS ALUMNI

I had a thought.

[Private to Penny Adiyodi]

I will make arrangements to ensure that your rest is not disturbed.

[Thor]

Might your couch be available on a more regular basis?

Is it possible to get a new roommate?

I'm seeing some shit that I don't want to see.



ooc: permission was granted for this, fyi

I've never had a dog before, but this dog is pretty great. It makes this whole living with strangers thing a little less upsetting. Also it doesn't mind when I'm a mess.

[Alice]

So. Magic? Do you want to work on it?

Stating the obvious aside: we've made another jump. Some of you remember (and would like to forget) the Prettiest Star space cruise ship. This one is on water this time. From what I can tell, it's a luxury cruise ship. Most of what I've seen seems familiar to cruise ships on Earth, but who knows so make sure you're careful until we know exactly what we're dealing with.

Check in on this post and see if your friends are here.

As of about five minutes ago, I've closed down the portal between Tumbleweed and Homewood, California. I left it open in the event anyone needed to go back for any reason. But, since it is closed now, if you find you left something behind or need to travel there, I'd suggest reaching out to someone who can teleport. I know of several in our community who've mentioned their services being available and in the event you aren't aware of them already, I'll be glad to pass on names.

And how is 2018 treating everyone thus far? Kylo and I came home yesterday but I got straight to work on my final batch of wine courtesy of Ronan Lynch's peach orchard 2017 stock. I've still got enough fruit to make a few bottles but we're well underway with the new batch. I'm also still welcoming any taste testers who would be willing. So, please, don't be shy.

MARGO HANSON

How was Time Square?

( Not an IC cut )

Don't let the sophistication fool you: She's royally pissed off at me. You would think I'd have left her in a dumpster to fend for herself for a week rather than in a brand new cat bed with someone to feed and look after her.

[Padmé]

Thank you for seeing to her while I was gone.

[Leia (Legends)]

I saw your other kids arrived and Luke lef when I was out of town. [...] That's good.

[Added filter to Quentin, Penny can read]

Could you meet with Penny and I tomorrow afternoon to try to see if we can help him block out unwanted mental stuff?

Trying to do any official paperwork over Christmas is such a pain, but I finally managed to get my enrolment done. Music and criminology, take two. Not that I'm even sure if it's really worth committing to a four year degree here.

MARGO HANSON

I know it's Christmas. When is the soonest you'll be free?

PENNY ADIYODI

I'm never speaking ill of Santa Claus again.

QUENTIN COLDWATER

I think I have a way to get my power back.

SHIRO

Did you get the things you asked for? From Santa? Which, by the way, is the most absurd sounding thing but [...] it was real.

The mice are here! My space mice from back home have just shown up!

[attached: this pic except looking a little more realistic]

I don't know where they came from, but I am so glad to have them here!

The black sheets were a bad idea.

[Filter: Petunia]

Thank you for your help with Lupin's present.

[Filter: Anakin Skywalker]

How badly did she yell at you after she stopped talking to you publicly? I think I left our last conversation rather abruptly, but ... it did help. I think.

If someone wanted to fly around to test an upgrade, is it best to take a trip out of town to do so?

People didn't bat an eyelid in Star City, but I'm guessing they would here. Especially given the UFO connections.

>> $75 for a port, right?
>> I want to get Johnny!Steve out of town so he can't get in any trouble, need somewhere with no people to fly around in.

$50 portals in town limits if you don't want to trudge through snow. $100 anywhere else.

[Ronan Lynch]

I wanted to say thanks or whatever for giving me the spell tattoo. I was able to take Alice and her friends to Cuba for ice cream. I could have gone somewhere else but I guess you do good work. We never talked about payment, what do you want?

It's been three days and I'm still fantasizing about this. Lance, when are we going back?

filter: rose tyler

Thought you'd want to know before anyone else.

He's here, Ears. Think he'd like to see you.

filter: doctor (12)

Hello, me. Not lost are you?

filter: telepaths

I've a bit of a telepathy problem. Any of you have a moment to help an old man?

[ALICE QUINN]

I asked this Santa fool for my hands to cast magic again.

Is that stupid? Do you think it'll happen?

I have never worn something as uncomfortable as blue jeans in my entire life. How does anyone manage to move in these things?

I need cupcakes. Or just the icing. Also, does anyone want to practice battle magic with me? I mean, you don't have to be one of us, but someone I can at least practice with would be okay.

QUENTIN COLDWATER: (public)

QUENTIN COULD YOU SHUT THE FUCK UP WITH TAYLOR SWIFT

[THE COTTAGE + ALICE]

I'm out.

I tried traveling. First I went to upstate New York to check it out, since I've been there before. Familiar scene, right? Then I tried a few places around the world.

They all worked.

The bad news is... I can't get to Fillory. I'm sorry.

[Eliot]

Really sorry.

PUBLIC

I think I went to hell? Did ... is there a hell here? I saw a demon and blinked the fuck out of there.

Fuck. I'm stuck.
