Apokolips Now! Comm

So, October brought villains from scary movies...

Does that mean November will bring mutated turkeys out for Thanksgiving revenge?

It seems that I am truly my father's son, even in the ways I swore not to be.

My dishonor has been pointed out to me, and as the argument is logical and intelligent, I assume that it must be true. I have forfeited my honor, and have disgraced not only myself, but my Cohort, my Legion, and Rome.

I beg the forgiveness of those I have hurt. I will be in my room, packing, and wherever this place will let me go, I shall. Perhaps, somehow, I shall find the road to redemption and forgiveness, if the Gods will it.

How hard would it be, hypothetically, to get a credit line established in this place...? One good enough to be approved for a small business loan, I mean?

That wasn't so bad. This place gets more and more interesting all the time.

[Bruce Banner & Clint]
Thank you. That panic room was perfect. Same time next month? :P

You know what's gross? Birds. Birds with their beady little eyes, staring at you and waiting to attack you all at once and peck out your eyes. Beady, gross birds.

Alfred Hitchcock, really? How come I get gross birds and their gross bird poop and everyone else gets the good ones?

Anyone who is able and willing to patrol, we need all of you out there. These people dressed up as Halloween villains are dangerous. This isn't a Halloween party that just let out, people have been hurt and the police isn't being able to handle the increased volume in calls.

They seem to be concentrating in the metropolitan area, all the way from Campus, to Suicide Slams, to Uptown Metropolis. We need to cover as much ground as possible.

For those of you who can't fight, please stay inside Watchtower or another safe location. Lock doors and windows and keep an eye on the boards for updates. Watchtower security is as high as it can be right now, that means that any non-resident will have to be escorted in all the way to the elevator or they will not be able to make it into the building.

I'd also like to ask all of you who have work or school tomorrow not to go, I will provide a doctor's note if necessary.

ETA: Two things:
1) I have communicators for those of you who want to patrol so we can remain in contact.
2) If anyone sees a very large dog, about 8 to 10 feet tall, he's on our side. Don't attack it, or he might attack back. Let me know if you feel like it's a problem and I'll contact the owner.

ETA 2: If any of you get hurt, we have a doctor in the building that can help. She'll be on the 21st floor.

...there's another full moon coming up and now I've got to watch my back even more with this new guy, Jason around. I hate that I'm asking...but I need help this time. I've two days proper to plan. If I can't see it or get anywhere that I could see it, I'll be fine. And nowhere with any water anywhere. Open to ideas, mates. I'm all ears...

It's probably a bad idea to be using the internet at a time like this and sending out flares to all the monsters...but it isn't like every monster in Tartarus isn't after us anyway. And...I really don't have any idea where this is, or how in the name of Olympus we ended up here.

Lady Juno, is this your doing?

Why is so much in the stores orange and black?

Toto, I think we're in Kansas again.

Get it? Because of Kansas and the Wizard of Oz. Which I've seen over seventy-five times. Seriously. I made myself a certificate. Seventy-five viewings is kind of a momentus occasion. But yeah, I'm not Dorothy. I'm Jess and I'm in Kansas, even though I fell asleep in L.A.

Like, at first I thought it was kind of cool. Time travel or inter-demensional travel, whatever this is. And then I was worried that I'd died and gone to Kansas heaven, but people tell me that this is normal for this place. So I've kind of given up hope of seeing my grandparents around. Which is kind of a bummer, but I'm glad I'm not dead.

I actually have no idea what I'm doing. I'm Jess.

I already said that.

I'm the new girl.

...I need a favour. Quick as you can, mates.

[ooc: about an hour later, if it's cool with the mods, there's a pretty nasty electrical storm surrounding the abandoned building in which Rikki is hiding out from the moon; no rain, just lightening and high winds for about a one block radius]

So...hypothetically...is there, like, a bomb shelter or panic room around here somewhere?

[ooc: added a few minutes later]

[Clint]
Are you any good at keeping secrets...? Do you know of any place like those? I trust you more than

[ooc: added after talking to Clint]

[Bruce Banner]
I'm being directed to you privately. You know of any places like those around here?

Seems to be I should be gettin to work on my cookin skills.

Fucking...what the
Well this is just great
So are the meteorologists in Metropolis all incapable of doing their jobs, or just the one that was on telly this evening?
What, do I just...sit here? In the middle of
America sucks

So I'm going to start offering a self-defense class at Watchtower. First one is tomorrow morning at 11.

My favorite thing about this time of the year?

Early Halloween candy sales.

...k...not exactly what I was expecting when I opened the cooler... What is this place? Where is this place...?
