Second Chances: the Network

Went to take a shower, wound up with a mermaid tail.

If anyone needs me, I'll sitting on some rocks, luring sailors to their demise.

My reward for an insanely busy weekend at work — two doubles on Friday and Saturday, and a regular eight-hour shift today — is a bottle of wine, an enormous pizza, and a date with my bed. She’s comfy; I’ve missed her.

But I do have an important question for those of you that have explored outside the city a good bit: where is a good place for hiking or recreational activities? It’s warmed up enough that I need to go somewhere that’s not encroached by concrete and steel. Bonus points if it’s dog friendly; I’d love to take Jinx with me.

No wings on me yet, but I'm seeing a powerful need for some wardrobe updates for those of you afflicted. I've got some designs I'm still toying around with, many of which involve tunic cuts and wrap around ties.

Hit me up if you want to try a couple out or want me to take a stab at altering your tops so you can stay decent when you're out there winging around this fair city of ours.

Getting real stir-crazy. Not a great look on someone like me.

Any of you invulnerable types willing to let me hunt you reenact The Most Dangerous Game underground tonight?

For "enrichment" or whatever.

I'm willing to admit I probably shouldn't have bothered, but I really thought the jeep was better at handling things like a little cold weather now.

We're all agreed it's this place doing it's weird crap, right? None of this is normal.

[KITTY | POE]

I was wondering if you'd let me make you coffee sometime. Also, pancakes. I'm really good at making pancakes.

They really should devote more time in school to teaching you how to actually figure out what you're going to do after you graduate. That would be a lot more useful than algebra. And I guess how to do taxes or something.

FBI training at Quantico lasts about four months. With everything that happened I don't think I can be away that long.

Still not convinced I'm not in a prison world here but everyone at the office assures me this just happens.

So hey I guess, I'm Hope.

I need a drink.

[CASSIAN AND JYN]
I have a teenage Leia. I mean I'm her guardian here.

...I've never taken care of another person, outside of Finn. I know the General Leia can take care of herself. But who thought this was a good idea? She was-

This is a mind trip and no amount of training prepared me for this.

My radio station officially switched to holiday music 24/7 until Dec. 26 so I'm officially in the holiday spirit.

[FILTER: Will]

Do you have any holiday traditions you'd like us to do here?

[FILTER: Loki]

I'm stopping by my cousin's for Thanksgiving, but what are we doing with the kids? Joint holiday? I can...cater.

(*if in doubt, check with Heather or I!)

Lydia’s 18th birthday is on the 20th. Given everything that happened recently she won’t be up for any of her usual style of party but I’m thinking a dinner at The Blue Mermaid (favorite book thing).

Let me know by tomorrow if you can make it so I can grab a table.

[Filter: Dean Winchester]

So do you get your kicks stabbing your friends or are you just that much of a dumbass that you thought that was a good plan?

Filter: Serenity Crew

Kaylee was just helping me with something I had to do. Didn’t want to bring that trouble to any of your doors so leaving seemed like the best option.

Filter: Eliot Spencer

Your tip about that shady guy at the bar paid off. Thought you should know.

Filter: Kitty Norville

Hey. [...] Sorry.

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.

[MATT]

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

Now that Hardison's secured the network, I have a request.

IF you are safe to do so: Record-Record-Record.

Audio, video—anything you can. Start compiling everything you've seen, heard, or documented since the beginning and send it to me. I'm starting to put together a timeline, and all of it will help. We call this the "discovery phase".

The Liaison Office may have let us down, but that doesn't mean we can't go after the people behind this.

Filter: Friends of Lydia, Stiles and Kitty

Kitty and I were both attacked. Stiles got us out of the city.

Please stay safe.

Filter: Enid & Willa

Are you both okay?

Filter: Wally

Thank you, for what you did.

Early college admission applications are due in a little over two weeks, so if no one hears from me until then just check with Stiles or Kitty for signs of life.

[ Stiles & Kitty ]

Did I leave my Calculus book and notes at home? I thought I put them in my bag this morning.

I don't believe in coincidences, and I've heard no fewer than four people in the halls talking about werewolves being attacked in the day or so since I arrived. Anyone care to explain? I'm not going to use it for a story yet, I'm just curious.

I do not wish to cause alarm, but it should be known that there was an attack last night on some of the wolves.

While I have no information on who they were or why they were there, I did gather an immense feeling of anger and panic from them as they retreated. One of them may also have some broken bones. Do with that information as you will.

It's not every day that your best friend is suddenly years older than you due to alternate universes making time a little weird even by Beacon Hills standards. The obvious benefit to this is that the age jokes get to start that much earlier. (Kidding. Maybe.)

Happy birthday, Stiles. I'm glad to be here for it.

[ Filter; Enid & Willa ]

Would you two be interested in coming to a party tonight? It's for Stiles's birthday. Just a small gathering since we have to fit this in our apartment but I'd love it if you were both there.

[ Filter; Simon ]

Have you spent very much time at Fisherman's Wharf yet?

While things are kind of objectively terrible, re: recent mass exodus, life still goes on.

That being established: what are we doing for Stiles's 21st birthday?

I have a couple of ideas, but I'm also totally open to suggestions.
