Second Chances: the Network

Another birthday without my husband or my dad or my fire fam... This sucks.

(ooc: sent Friday 21 November)

[Hope and Scott]

Hi! Thanks for tackling the Z-Band fix. I can drop it by after classes and then collect it whenever it’s ready over the weekend, if that’s OK?

It was set at a frequency that calmed my brainwaves perfectly, but I can’t remember which it was. There was some adjustability so I could give myself a more human look when I needed to.

So, this brunch invite for tomorrow? Who's going? Hard to pass up free food and a chance to get to know our neighbors.


I might have a problem for our tech/biomed folks around here. Seems during our search and destroy mission earlier this week, one of their EMPs messed with my prosthetic arm and it's mostly just a limb shaped paperweight at the moment. I've tried doing a hard reset but it looks like they fried it pretty well. Although I make a dashing Captain Hook, any help in getting it working again or making a new one if we have to go there would be appreciated.

The apartment was way too quiet without the two of you.

Next weekend - you, me, someplace quiet away from all this?

Morgan wants to trick or treat. I don't want to hold her back, but I'm nervous.

It’s obvious that Zed is being chased, he sounds stressed and a lot less Zed-like than usual.

"Loki, it’s me. I’m— at the stadium. Had to get away from people." A snarling noise breaks into his sentence and he struggles to talk around it. "They followed me after classes. My ZBand—"

The phone is knocked from his hand as a loud clatter follows. Voices of others carry over the speaker, shouting at each other directions to trap and grab the monster. There’s a crashing noise as something or someone is thrown into the bleachers. Yells and growls mix together-clearly Zed as he struggles not to be caught, or lose himself completely to his monstrous side.

We were meant to get back into the city tonight but there's a roadblock? Does anyone know anything about this?

There was meant to be a detour but it's blocked too.

Hi, everyone. Tony and I have been planning a small party for Gar's birthday on Saturday. We rented out a bowling alley and ordered pizza/cake. Gar just wants to spend the day with friends and family so please make sure to drop by 8 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.

Thank you!

I have been here long enough to see times like these, where a larger group arrives or returns all at once. It does not make anything easier, it will likely never get any more easy to deal with when we lose loved ones.

But now is a time for support. Ask for it, provide it, whatever you need or are able to do. Check on your neighbors, "our people" or otherwise. The smallest offering can make a world of difference in times like these. We are in this together.

[ ooc; I am turning off tracking on this post - please use it to corral character reactions about the drops so the network comm isn't getting spammed and posts being buried ♥ filter to your own people, text messages, whatever. Your characters don't have to talk to Una at all, it's just a place to corral this. ]

A lemur stole my banana. I've decided to call him Balder, for no particular reason other than my own amusement.

Has anyone else experienced a bit of petty theft or minor vandalism from our new and varied animal neighbors?

Ughhhh. I forgot this time existed.

PUPPIES!

That's it. That's the post.

Alright, I guess I'm ready for college. Probably.

[Faye]

On a scale from 1 to devastating, how bad is it that I'm not in high school with you anymore? lol I'm kidding. I hope you're having a good first week. 😘 I think I'm done getting all my shit sorted for college so I can wait for you afternoon if you wanna hang out.

Also, Holden has the week off so we might do some family bonding with Tony. What do you think about me bringing you to meet them? You know... as my girlfriend? 🥰

IT'S TIME.

Who wants to come out tonight?! Food, hanging out, and one Peter Parker's first legal drink at midnight!!!

I was thinking dinner (and dessert!) in Little Italy then City Nights after? And City Nights is 18+ so obviously I get to drag my amazing and perfect girlfriend, too. #priorities

[Family]
And then dinner tomorrow?! And CAKE.

I believe I heard rumors of a dinosaur cake?

Hello? 여기는 어디인가요?

안녕하세요, I'm Rumi. It's been a very intense 24 hours, but I have a feeling that's the case for everyone who's been pulled into some new... 차원? I've been to San Francisco a couple of times in my life on tour, but this is still weird.

[FILTER: Everyone EXCEPT Eddie Munson]

I think I have a date and Kate isn't here to help me get ready. Also, should I ask if it is a date? What if it is not a date?

Little Peter has been asking for a beach day so I think tomorrow's the day. If anyone wants to come, we're planning on packing up the sandcastle building supplies, Addie the Adventure Dog, and a picnic lunch and heading out to Crissy Field. I know we'd love to have friends along and it's supposed to be pretty nice weather for the day.

Pete's mostly hoping to see some whales but apparently windsurfers will do.

I'm bored.

I'm going to the beach.

If I try to go home, back to New York, will it be for nothing? Will I just wake up here again?

So, life doesn't always pause when crazy things start to happen, and my status for Berkeley changed to "Accepted." Yay!??? I'll be enrolling in the College of Letters & Sciences as an undeclared student until something clicks.

[Cassie, Scott L., and Hope]
None of your names are on Agent Coulson's list, but we also haven't really checked in, so maybe let's do that?

I'm still 17, and I will be for the next 11-ish weeks.

[Loki, Lila, Lestat]
I saw Sylvie, but I haven't seen anyone else.

Is everyone okay? Do you need anything?

[Young Avengers does not include de-aged Avengers]
This is so weird.

Are you all still the right age?!

...sorry for the double DMs if you got others. At least this one's a group?
