Second Chances: the Network

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.

...wasn't expecting a wee bear. Should I be concerned?

The full moon is almost here; reach out if you're feeling extra strange. This one is a total lunar eclipse.

Who is going out with me tonight to scope safe territory? Our usuals have probably changed.

Sometimes living with a genius means coming home and finding their notes all through your textbook. Because who wouldn't want to read Criminal justice responses: How agencies apply theory to policy and enforcement for fun?

Messing with someone else's post it system is just rude.

I'm not posting this to demand well wishes or whatever. More to poke fun at myself. I turned 29 yesterday and with everything that has been going on I actually forgot my own birthday. Who does that?? The last birthday of my 20s went out not with a bang but a whimper.

I should have lined up a dinner date with some rando. At least made the day weird.

[ filtered; Stiles and Lydia ]

And thank you for the birthday pancakes and overall breakfast. That was sweet and thank you for not making too much fun of me for being so confused as to why it was happening.

[ filtered; "LLC" ]

The gift basket was super sweet. Thank you. It was a weird day and I can't believe I actually forgot.

[ filtered; Jason Todd ]

And YOU. Thank you. I love the shirt, the gift card will be put to very good use. And it means a lot that you remembered while dealing with everything you are.

New arrival here. I'm looking for recommendations of excellent coffee shops that aren't run by a corporation.

Bat-Fam
Report in.

Contrary to what you likely believe or have been told, I'm not here to disrupt whatever lives you're living here. I, like you, had little choice in my arrival here.

So that you know where to find me, I'm in #1703.

Clark Kent
Hey Boy Scout.

Damian
Dick told me Jason is your legal guardian. Is that working out for you both?

It's good to know that while you've been here you haven't been alone, you've been among your brothers, Damian.

DC at large
Alternate universes, scattered timelines – has anyone started an investigation into the various branches and intersections of anyone currently and previously present here that have connections in their home universe?

Bat-Fam (Again)
If there are people in your life who are important to you here, please introduce them to me.

Well, I certainly did not expect to find myself in San Francisco. Although judging from the fact that there are no dinosaurs roaming around the city, this does not seem to be my San Francisco. Not that San Francisco is mine, I wouldn't presume to suggest that. Er, more this is not the San Francisco from my world.

Er, sorry, this is all just a lot to take in, is all. I was just on Île Saint-Hubert, not that I want to go back there, so this is all just a bit of a shock. Although if we were able to recreate a perverse version of dinosaurs, I should not be surprised at the possibility of universe like ours existing.


Oh, I'm doing this all backwards. I'm Henry Loomis, Dr. Henry Loomis, although I don't know if there's a need for paleontologists here, so maybe the Dr. is irrelevant. I think I need a big cup or coffee or tea. Or maybe something stronger.

Pretty sure being 10 again isn't a thing anyone expects. Pretty sure me being 10 again wasn't a thing anyone needed.

I don't think I'm sorry for all the questions. Apparently I had a lot I needed to know. But thanks for everyone who put up with them.

[Wally]

But I am sorry about the deep philosophical questions about your death, man.

This place... is quite unique.

[Filter to Malsy]
Oi.

Where are you?
