open thread: When Kaiju Attack
Who: Open. CLOSED (2/2 @ 11 PM Pacific).
What: The Avengers tackle an attack on the city, on three fronts.
When: One weekday afternoon, mid-January.
Where: various locations.


    CURRENT TEAMS & AGENTS: HERE.

    Threading Timeline: 1/15/2020 to 2/2/2020 (threads will be frozen at 11 PM, Pacific). This event takes place over the course of one day, depicting only one moment in time. That means that other logs can be posted at any time after this and mention clean up efforts.

    Plot Summary, Map, and Size Comparison: HERE.

    Notes: Monsters are NPCs but you can mention monster actions/reaction/descriptions in your tags to get a hit in. Also, it's ok to post things set after the monster attack or mention it happening in network posts or logs! Clean up operations will be ongoing the day after the attack and it will take weeks to clean up the mess. A news post toward the end of the month will address that as an ongoing situation.


Team Threads: To help with communication, we'll try something new. If anyone needs to post a plan or change of plans to their teammates, or to say something to another team, you can communicate in your own team thread by putting "message to ____" in the subject line of each post, filling in the blank with a name or team number. That way, someone else knows to look there and can reply with a brief message!

If anyone playing a team member gets RL busy, it's ok to excuse your character to go save a civilian. Just make sure that there are other teammates there capable of taking down the creatures!


S.H.I.E.L.D. agents: Those stationed in each area have the option to interact in either Team Threads or Civilian Threads. They're the only baseline humans that can move through both threads freely. You can have them get caught in the crossfire, or describe what they're doing around each location to help out. Since agents have the same communication device, they can "message to ____" other agents or a nearby Avengers team.


Civilians Thread: It's optional to submit any short narratives here. Because this is a game-wide plot, it counts toward Activity Check!

Civilians (baseline humans) do not have a comm device, only cellphones. They can thread things in the Civilian portion. These threads can happen simultaneously with what's happening in the team fights. That means if something happens in a team thread, you can incorporate that into your thread if they are in the nearby vicinity.

Since it's imperative monsters are stopped ASAP, Avengers can't drop what they're doing to go off and thread with civilians. They have a city and people to save. However, if a fight seems 99% handled, a team member can excuse themselves to assist civilian characters, OR they can interact in this thread directly after a fight is finished.


Have fun!

Phone call to Jane

To say that Metro General was swamped was an understatement.

In times of crisis, it seemed that people always went to two places: church or the hospital. The line ups were mind boggling, and every single pair of hands was being used up triaging, administering blankets, trying to manage shock, suturing minor wounds and at times trying to locate next of kin.

Christine was grateful that their morgue was mostly full -- it prevented those kinds of admittance at least.

After several hours of non-stop moving, having to even do a few surgical procedures in the er bay (and she was so grateful nothing bad had happened -- that would have been an insurance nightmare), she finally had to stop. Going to her favourite linen closet, she opened a water bottle, took a bite of a granola bar and called Jane.

"How do you do it?," Christine blurted out when Jane answered. "Know that someone you love is out there, doing crazy fucked up things, and you can't do a single thing to help. Worrying is useless because I am literally sewing scalps back on, and have fingers to re-attach and I have no time for that but wow. Wow. Did you see what Carol did? Or Sif? How do we even know these people?" A pause. "And are you okay? Where are you?"

Jane sat in her in lab, screens up to track what was happening with the fight, another up as workstation. When her phone rang, she asked Friday to put it on speaker.

"I'm in my lab at the Tower being human and fragile and out of the way. Watching what's happening and trying to find a way to help. And you just...do it. Believe they know what they're doing and that means they know enough to be safe. It's their job. They have to go to work."

"Work."

Because at the end of the day, that's what this was. Work. They were superheroes first. Stephen had said as much to Christine repeatedly: that his role was first and foremost the most important thing in his life.

This wasn't new, Stephen had always been a workoholic. It was easier to understand when it was surgery though, not saving the world.

"I'm human and fragile too, which is why I'm calling you right now because I might be close to having a little panic attack." She took a large bite of her granola bar and chewed. "Or it's low blood sugar. Both are very possible."

Another pause.

"If you don't want to be alone, you could come here. Sit in the doctors' lounge."

"Okay maybe work isn't the right word. It's not like going to the office. It matters." Jane had always understood Thor's power and his need to be worthy of it as a special responsibility. She tried to help not as some 80s cartoon sidekick but because she believed in sharing that responsibility.

"Hey wait, how close to a panic attack? Are you ok?"

Christine waved off Jane's question, as if the other woman could see her. "No, not a real one. I could handle that. I am in a hospital.... maybe ... hmm..." She chewed thoughtfully for a moment before finally continuing.

"I think the word I want is overwhelmed actually. Overwhelmed with the reality that is my life. I am okay, and I'll be okay." She could already hear footsteps nearing her door, and she shrank back into the gowns. A few more minutes of peace and quiet. That's all she needed.

"That's why I thought I'd call you. I figured you'd ..get it."

"It ie crazy," Jane admitted. "Nobody ever expects this to be their life. And it is nuts. But it's also..life. If you focus too much on the worry, you'll go crazy and you'll just be making it about you, which doesn't help anybody."

She sighed and checked her sceens for any results from her scans. "But I get it. I remember when Thor was just a guy and we all thought he was nuts. Listen Strange is going to be fine. And you're a doctor, you save people too."

Her granola bar was done, and the pager was starting to buzz incessantly on her hip but Christine took a few moments to fully appreciate what Jane was saying.

"Stephen's fine. I'm not worried about him. Or Thor. Or anything of them." A pause. "Okay, if I say it enough I might believe it." She took a deep breath and gave a little shriek as the power started to flicker. Being a hospital, the generator kicked in almost immediately. "Holy crap," she breathed out. "Speaking of Thor, huh .... power just went out. I better get out there and save some lives. You take care of yourself, Jane, okay?"
