Minor surprise. Okay. Not minor. Not at all minor. So far from minor, I don't even know why I said minor. Um. Rupert's...here. He's three.
Hey. So weird news. I think Eliot gets first dibs, but do you want to meet Rupert? Cause apparently he's here.
Just a heads up, my son from another life showed up, so I’m coming back later with a three year old.
Hey guys, thinking with it being Alice's birthday today, do we want to do a dinner tonight somewhere down on Naboo since we're in a place that has good food and all that?
Q.
I've baked, I've downloaded Muppet Treasure Island and I've thought up aforementioned Muppet Treasure Island themed cocktails. All of this is to say that you should really come indulge me with your company.
What do you think?
Fen, dearest, it's been nearly eight months. Do you think it is safe to say we're in the clear and perhaps we can start discussing a name?
Did you want to go tour some schools here soon? Or are you thinking University of Tumbleweed is going to be the one?
Weird question but you wouldn't happen to have veritaserum lying around, would you? Or a method that you all use to reverse engineer a truth-spitting potion?
--ATTACHMENT: photo of a drawing by Anka Irene of the portal being smited. It's a bunch of scribbles because 2 year old, but the intent is there.
-- we're sending you hugs.
-- feel free to use the cabin if you need to get away from everything
-- its unplottable and all that fun stuff so no one can get to it that hasn't been directly told about it by me.
-- I'm sorry, Quentin.
Hey, Q. It looks like Margo and Alice are getting drinks. We could join them? Or do something else if you want?
You wanna do that alone thing you do, or you wanna get shitfaced with a couple friends?
Have we reached the end of the moping stage yet? Because there's a movie at the cinema about the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and you're going to take me.
I've finished attaching the room next to ours. We've now got our very own doorway so we don't have to go into the hall to get to the nursery. Simple enough charm, thanks to Alice's notes, so I don't think it'll be hard to remove a few years down the line when we might not want an adjoining room.
We should really discuss paint and theming. I can't commit to furniture until we pin this down.
And we ought to start prepping for Christmas. At least when it comes to Fray.
We have a few extra days off work here shortly. How's about we make a day trip?
I know a good place in upstate NY for axe-throwing if you feel like you and Gabby could use it. I'm sorry, Q.
You ever have moments where you wish you had the perfect thing to say to someone so you spend all day trying to figure it out and come out with nothing?
I know I'm the last person you want to speak to right now, but I just wanted to say I'm really sorry.
I saw. I'm so sorry. I'm not a lot of fun right now but let me know if you want company.
This sucks. I know you just recently got Ben back. He could still come back, and even if it is as a ghost again, he can be brought back to the world of the living. It's not a big comfort, I know. Let me know if there's something I can do.
Recovery has been a little slower and more frustrating than I thought. I'm planning on coming back, but I might be at Tony's for another week or two. At least until things feel a little more normal. I just wanted to keep you posted.
We've got the Portals reconnected. I could be there in five minutes. Say the word and I will be. Or, better still, I can hold off and come bearing the most decadent of comfort foods. You want baked mac and cheese? I can do baked mac and cheese.
I'd say copious amounts of alcohol, too, but I don't think that's the call. But if it is the call, tell me. I'll come gifting copious amounts of alcohol.
I've offered to bring food to you and Q. Is there something you might like? I tossed out mac and cheese as a safe Quentin option but I don't know your possible go to comfort foods.
And shall I bring you wine or hard liquor?
I'm probably on my way to New York tonight. Do you have people? Do you want to go drink? Comfort mac and cheese?
I love you.
I don't know when you'll see this or if you are up for replying but you don't have to. I just want to say I'm sorry. I am here for you. I know we have not had much of a chance to talk before these recent weeks, but if there's anything at all I can do, please let me know.
I know both of you are still here since there haven't been alerts about you either but I'd just like to see you type something, or hear your voices. Can we get dinner tonight?
How have you been feeling?
--I'm heading to the school with Anka Irene.
--Let me know if you need anything.
--Take the day off at least
--And let me know if ya need more than that.
I'm going out of town for the weekend. To New Jersey. I just didn't want to disappear and not tell anyone. Considering how things are. If anyone asks, I wanted someone to be able to know.
Just checking in. How're you doing?
I am tired of this.
It seems you've all been affected because you helped us who were taken. What can I do to help you all?GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY:
Quentin, you have my sincerest gratitude. I'll need to see you once this is over.
I suppose a roll call is in order.
When do you get back in town?THE PHYSICAL COTTAGE:
Everyone is doing this Quidditch thing. Why don't we have a Welters field?
( not an IC cut )
How do you feel about the 8th for New York? I can get us tickets for Hamilton right now if that works for you. The 15th also seems doable on the ticket front.
Thank you for the plants, Fray. I like mine immensely. What does yours look like?
When do you think you'll have a spare few hours?
When you were in the hotel, you got memory updates, didn't you?
I was wondering if you'd like to help me teach the survival course.[Filtered to EPS faculty (updated when people are added)]
Everyone enjoy this week off. We'll open on the 27th to set up classrooms and start on development though we'll try to keep meetings brief enough to get us all out at a decent time.[Filtered to Emma Frost, Rogue, Kitty Pryde]
Does anyone have any questions / concerns?
Emma-- When you get back in town, we should probably talk about this.
Attention, attention!
Some of you are aware that Eliot Waugh's birthday is this weekend. It's kind of a big deal, and he really enjoys being the center of attention. So let's give that to him with a big party at the Cottage on Sunday. It'll start in the afternoon with BBQ and just hanging out and go on into the night where things will likely get a little raunchy. If you're coming with children, maybe stick to the daytime festivities.
Anyone who would like to assist in the BBQing and setting up would be greatly appreciated.
See you there! (Recommended that you don't arrive before noon. Some of us don't bother getting dressed until then.)
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'svaguelyunder 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'llI'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.
Hey, you. This is my day late check in.
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.
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.
