Who: Tony Stark, Steve Royama, Bucky Barnes (Open.)
When: Current
Where: A snowbound winter resort
What: Officially, they're hiking in to the resort, but it's an excuse to have people take a vacation if needed. Steve and Bucky are probably going to be engaging in some manly waving at snow to prove they're not scared.
Rating/Warnings: Threads will be tagged if needed.
Status: Open

[The resort's in a geothermal area, so there's a hot spring and the houses are heated by the same system, once you get the heat going. A cozy fire would not go amiss. There are some mountains perfect for skiing from the nearby town, but the area around the resort is better for crosscountry hiking / snowshoeing. Nearby town has a fancy dairy selling some pretty neat stuff, and a bakery selling a local potato based flatbread (lefse,) cinnamon rolls, and rye bread. A heavy snow closed the road up to the cabins, so Tony managed the rent the area for cheap by claiming he had some ex-military / hiking enthusiasts who wouldn't mind a trek.

Tony's basically invited everyone, so invites can come from him, Steve + Bucky, Assassins, Stephen Strange, or the Vaels.]

Who: Tony Stark, Marcello Auditore

Who: Tony Stark, Steve Rogers, Bucky Barnes, Morgan Stark
When: Current
Where: Tony's shop
What: Tony's been having off and on jackhammers on his street, but the work crew is taking a break. Good time for burgers, fries, and some conversation.
Rating/Warnings: Morgan's backstory comes from Avengers : Endgame.
Status: Complete

( I know there must be some kind of other life / That does it all, like butter does the knife / Not some half-forgotten mystic death / But break on through into your higher self )

Who: Tony Stark, Aedan Vael, Meghan Vael
When: Current
Where: Craigcrook Castle, Edinburgh, Scotland
What: Tony's over at the castle with a migraine avoiding his own home and a jackhammer on the street outside. Meghan comes home from school and chats a bit. She's been thinking Tony's upset about something she said when she first arrived, which is not actually the case. Tea and toast happens.
Rating/Warnings:

( I guess you can't expect much from the hometown / Well I don't know if you can even call it your own / When they don't want you to get near excitement / And in protest to that you just stay home )

Who: Tony Stark, Emmett Frye, Steve Royama
When: Current
Where: Tony's apartment above the store
What: Emmett's stressed out, and Tony suggests they cook. Tony's not sure how Thanksgiving should go, on a home cooked front of things, and he thinks cooking up a test meal will help him have actual opinions about things. Emmett's mostly stressed about his father, Desmond, and Iomhar.
Rating/Warnings:
Status: Complete

( In a moment my whole world was overshadowed, with that noise / the whole street was an echo / Tomato, pepper, aubergine . . . )

Who: Tony Stark, Steve Royama
When: Current, in the last week or so. I think they've crossed that threshold now.
Where: Steve's apartment
What: Tony's sleeping over. Clearly, logically, this leads to a discussion of "That time Steve bought condoms at an 'intimate' shop," the ethics of big box stores and retail work in general, and so on. Talk moves on to plans with dating, and uh, something more.
Rating/Warnings: Nothing too off color, despite the topic
Status: Complete

( My hopes come and go like migrating birds beyond hopes, what is it? / It's the beloved who shares the heat in my breath / It's the beloved who knows how to wake from a sleep called life )

Who: Tony Stark, Philo
When: Current
Where: The thrift store
What: Philo's shopping at a thrift store and discussing sci fi.
Rating/Warnings: Not really. A digression on fairy wings with these nerds. Philo's a lying liar and that's mentioned too.
Status: Complete

( The finest ship that sailed the sea / Is still a prison for the likes of me / But give me wings like Noah's dove / I'll fly up harbour to the girl I love  )

Who: Tony, Tadgh, Enjolras

What: Tony's setting up stuff in a geodesic tent, and Enjolras and Tadgh are there, chatting about plans to look at nature in the evening.
Rating/Warnings:
Status: Complete

( Tomorrow shall be my dancing day, / I would my true love did so chance / To see the legend of my play, / And call my true love to my dance.  )

Who: Basically anyone at the Vael household (it's a tea party, folks are welcome, tag in on a thread)
When: Current
Where: Craigcrook Castle, Edinburgh
What: Calum enjoys the steps to setting up things for tea, and it's an excuse to invite people over to have tea and things to nibble. Tony's around, having casually given Aedan a present earlier of a hoodie with a bit of plaid on it and a copy of one of Steve's drawings of the horses around Craigcrook Castle. Meghan's around. Yvette's there, to talk a bit quietly with Bahorel. Ellie's stopping by with Morgan.
Rating/Warnings: Threads will be tagged if they get grim. Yvette might mention some of Bahorel's work with endangered kids. Tony tends to chat about his health / PTSD, so that might come up.
Status: Open

[ Some rain rolled in, but there's still cool options out on the table. Noah's been making a sort of gelatin based cake.

Think something like:
https://www.justonecookbook.com/fruit-jelly/
or
https://hot-thai-kitchen.com/agar-agar-fruit-cake/

There's also tea, coffee, and lemonade options, along with sandwiches and various other things to nibble.]

Who: Tony Stark, Bucky Barnes, Steve Royama
When: Current
Where: Tony's apartment
What: Tony, Steve, Bucky and netflix. And food. When you've got super soldier DNA, even bastardized like Bucky, you think about food a LOT.
