What is the accepted behavior after mating for humans? I am curious.

Also, how would one go about contacting their author? Or at the very least prevent something from being published?

Today I was walking the streets of this city and many people kept staring at me. Others kept saying for me to Wax on, Wax Off. I smiled politely and nodded with them, but I was unsure what they meant.

However, I have visited many nice tea houses in a place called China Town. It is quite remarkable there, and they have afforded me a chance to sit back and learn their language. It is really quite... aggressive. Though one charming lady said that their taxi drivers in the home country use the language even more so when driving.

I am at a loss though with what to occupy my time with, especially to make money and to give back. Would anyone need a retired general and tea drinker to hire?

I suppose it won't come as much of a surprise to some of you that I've decided to resume teaching. Some of my areas of expertise were rather specific to the world I came from, however, as of next week, I will be teaching:
-Military tactics and strategy
-Diplomacy
-Hand to Hand Combat


Susan Sto Helit
I wanted to thank you for this opportunity. Also, I am not sure if there is a need here, but I did serve as a faculty advisor to students at the Academy as well.

If anyone still requires red hair for their scavenger hunt, Iskierka and I are willing to barter her locks. This course will surely be best for all as trying to steal it would lead to singeing.

I would certainly be willing to give a lock to someone who would be so kind as to help me print a picture from the computer onto paper.

Hello? This is how this magic works? The man told me to introduce myself. I am Eragon of Carvahall. I have been told that my dragon, Saphira, is not here. I have also been told not to use magic here for a period of time to adjust.

This place... this New York, is much larger than anything I have ever seen, though I have seen little except Teirm. I am living with someone named Percy Jackson. I will be pleased to meet you and have a better reaction to you than those I first met.

The man also asked if someone can continue my teaching in reading? It has been nearly a month since Brom taught me, and the runes are unfamiliar to me.

Thank you.

I'm absolutely in love with all of the shimmer and metallics that were popular on the red carpet last night! I won't comment on the show or Anne Hathaway's unfortunate darting on her Prada gown, but it was like watching heaven. Jessica Chastain looked like an Oscar herself and I love how the gown had hints of her hair color in it, but I have to admit if I could choose anyone's dress I think I'd like to wear the gown Alicia Vikander chose to wear. I love the color, pop of yellow, the lace-like beading, and the cut of the dress.

I think this means has inspired me to start putting together a new look book.

Matchmaker, matchmaker make me a match

I'm not sure how things are done in this world, but everyone seems very open about everything, so I think I will give this a try.

My Captain, the handsome and brave Captain John Granby as recently arrived in this world and as his previous lover is not here, I think he would benefit from having someone to have relations with.

A bit about Captain Granby:
  • handsome
  • hard-working
  • funny
  • doesn't play mind games
  • considerate
  • new to this world
  • skilled and decorated aerial corps officer
  • excellent at riding and caring for dragons
  • loyal


What he would like in a lover:
  • handsome
  • male
  • caring
  • stimulation
  • good at relations - sexual skills
  • successful
  • good at conversation as well
  • someone who is not opposed to dragons


I will be examining candidates. After all, this future lover must have my approval or it will not be good.

In case you do not believe me that Granby is handsome, here is proof:

A very kind SHIELD woman taught me how to use this. It is quite fascinating, as we do not have anything like this at home. Though I think everyone would marvel at Ba Sing Se.

My name is Iroh and I am looking forward to all the tea here and making your acquaintance.

Iskierka says I should write something here. Since she seems to know a good bit more about this Business than I do, I'm following Orders and Introducing myself.

Good Morning. My name is John Granby. It's actually Captain John Granby, but since my Dragon is presently a Girl, I'm not at all Certain I can call Myself a Captain any longer.

When the Thing took me, the Year was 1810, and I was slogging through what I'm certain was the most Miserable Jungle in all the Incan Empire. I suppose I was Lucky to come here, as your Doctors were able to save my Arm.

Iskierka tells me she hasn't been any Trouble. Is that actually True, or has she just not been in any Trouble by her Standards?

A big thank you to Luke and Thalia for showing me the joys of chocolate and candy, especially how inexpensive it was was after Valentine's Day. And so many sparkly things. Chocolate is delicious. As is candy. And gummy bears - I have never met a real bear, but I do like gummy bears.

I received a message that my Captain is here! But that he is inured and will be in medical for a few days. How am I supposed to focus on anything knowing that Granby is here. I hope he remembers me. Temeraire didn't remember going to South America or mating with me..

All the different languages I have heard in this place are fascinating indeed. I find myself wanting to learn them all, to examine and dissect them, to perfect them where they need perfecting. I have finished my alphabet, which I believe is a great improvement over these letters that I type with, and certainly more attractive. These letters are small and rather banal, I find.

An example of it is here - I chose a poem from the large tome of the Third Age, as actual words always look better than just a written alphabet. )

Also - I am taking orders for crafts. Jewels, jewelry, armor, and also weaving and embroidery - anything of the sort. The price will be high, as should expected of quality merchandise, but it will be well worth it.

Things I learned today: While informative, watching episodes of your show on your lunch break is rarely a good idea. Especially when you learn something that keeps you distracted for an entire afternoon of SHIELD training.

Apparently my boyfriend partner lover Jack has/had the capability to become pregnant. The joys/surprises of dating an alien.

I'm assuming this is a miracle of modern medicine that has not yet been achieved here on Earth. (And pregnant transgender men don't count.)

Cooking is more difficult than Gong Su made it seem. One would think that tossing meat, spices, and vegetables into water would be as easy as it sounds, especially considering how bland some of those stews were. Though I suppose that was the ingredients' fault and not Gong Su's. There is only so much one can do with kangaroo. My efforts on the grill have been more successul than the stove, although I am certain that I have ruined one of our pots. Are there special pots one must buy to use over fire?

I think that I shall also purchase some books when I go out to procure a new pot. While this device is splendid, my eyes are starting to hurt. Plus I do think it would be splendid to actually hold a book in my own hands and read it myself. Are there any specific novels I should buy? I do not suppose that anyone would know where could find a copy of Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica. I should like to buy it so that I can have one until Laurence comes as well with our copy.

All this snow we've been having reminds me of growing up in Alaska.
Except there aren't any moose.

Hi Sam. Could I have a couple days free? Sunday Monday Tuesday. My present day and place culture class is going to see the inauguration! I want to go. I can work double shifts beforehand or afterward. If that helps. I've never seen a leader sworn in before. It's supposed to be peaceful too. No dead bodies. Thank you, for thinking about it. It's short notice. Shorter if any of us disappear. But I'm coming back, I assume. I'm acting like it.

Thank you! They were delicious. I enjoyed them. Are you feeling hopeful still? There's a clinic open now. The doctors are from different universes. They could help. I like talking with you.

I might be gone a couple days. Washington DC. Presidential inauguration. Have you ever been, John? Will you two be okay without me, while I'm gone? I'll miss you.
Why is human color so important? It's listed as racism, and I've read about human events in the past, but it doesn't explain why racism. Cranial size doesn't correlate to intelligence. Skin color in humans is pigment. I'd understand if humans hated gorillas or chimpanzees or orangutans for being other species, other races. But other humans, for being human? Logic doesn't follow. How are the president's daughters satanic spawn? A series of google searches explained drone strikes, which explains the charge of a murderous bastard [reference: President Barack Obama's mother unmarried at time of birth]. Who prays for more dead soldiers? What did homosexuals ever do to them?

Racism doesn't make sense.

It's so bizarre that I just can't look away. I think I know all the words now.

Hello, everyone. My name is Virginia Potts. I'm better known as (and answer to) the moniker that Tony gave me many years ago, Pepper.

I wanted to take a moment to welcome you all to the Refugee Network. Tony Stark - as well as many others - created the network so you would have a safe space to talk without the prying eyes of the media. I'd like to give them a warm thank you for their hard work.

Some of you have been here for a while, and as of today, the Tesseract has given us more refugees than it has in the previous five months, and it's still going. I'd like to take a moment to thank the hard-working men and women of S.H.I.E.L.D. for their diligence and perseverance. Without their quick thinking when refugees began to appear, this would have been nearly impossible for any one of us to handle.

And on that note, Director Fury has asked me to pass along the message that they are in dire need for Administrative Staff to help with processing. Anyone who is interested can pass on a note to your Housing Assistant.

Speaking of, there should be one Housing Assistant per two floors (and in one case, three floors). Should you require any assistance, they should be able to help you. Potts Tower is not a new building, but we have gutted it, given it an ARC reactor for clean energy, a full service gym in the basement, an outdoor patio and pool area, and an entertainment area. We plan to utilize all of these areas in the upcoming holiday season in the hopes that it helps alleviate some of the melancholy of being without your families.

Once again, welcome to the Refugee Network and Potts Tower, and I look forward to getting to know you.

-Virginia Potts
