Second Chances: the Network

[LAMP]

Yelena's missing. Her stuff's still here and there hasn't been an announcement, but we're looking for her. Might be a good idea if you two gather the band & co at Julie's / Nat's to keep them company.

[Folks who work with / consult with Phil]

Yelena's gone missing. Angie hasn't made an announcement so either it's one of those day or two blips or something else. I could use a hand monitoring the feeds from the cops and the agency on local activity and checking surveillance if anyone's got free time tonight.

[Private to Phil, Matt, Clint, Steve]
She didn't leave a note. She always leaves a note when she takes off.

Angie hasn't made another announcement, but even in her foulest moods, she leaves a note.

I'm trying not to panic, but I don't think I'm strong enough to handle losing her, too.
[end]

[Private to James and Julie]
I haven't heard from Yelena, not unusual when she goes off grid, but she didn't leave a note that I can find. If she forgot to leave a note, then the three of us will not let her hear the end of it.

If this is worst case scenario, I'm not letting them move you, Julie. You're family.

I need a new hobby, and I'm open to suggestions.

Fuck.

Fuck fuck fuck.

To think I delayed my honeymoon by a week to go to an arraignment scheduled today, but instead I'm playing the foil in a sword fighting comedy. (You all are lovely, and the act is very funny—but this is just the principle of the thing.)

At this rate, I'm never making partner.

Today is one of the bestest best days ever!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, CLARK!!!

Thank you for being one of the most awesome people here! I got you a present. Oh! And I wasn't sure how old you were so I bought 87 candles. That's enough, yeah?

Can't say I expected to end up in San Francisco randomly.

( Cut for Mobile, but Everyone Can See It )

Everyone is invited!

"But we're not that close." You're invited.

"I don't want to interrupt your big day." You're invited.

"We've never met." You're invited.

"I wasn't here when the invitation went out, but I read back on the network." You're invited.

If you're interested in simply getting together and meeting your neighbors and eating some truly decedent brunch food, you're invited.

No one is getting turned away. Not even Loki.

No idea why I'm filtering her out, she's brilliant, she's going to figure it out. And I'm not great at secrets.

But anyway, the birthday of the beautiful and good hearted May Parker Banner is coming up. And I know the kids and I aren't the only ones who want to celebrate her and thank her for being incredible.

I don't want to interrupt anyone's wild Cinco celebrations, but May 5th the kids and I are booking the back patio at Chuy's Fiestas and raiding the place with all things May. You're of course all invited. Gifts are welcomed but, if you know May, you know they're not required. Mostly I just want a reason for everyone to fawn over my wife.

I don't have time for this shit.

Today I learned that the thing keeping us alive on this ship is a computer function called life support.

It is the only thing that generates oxygen in space.

If it goes offline we will all die. And Hardison says that all computers have their weakness. And I don't like any of this at all.

I would like to go back to earth now.

Public announcement on the U.S.S. Enterprise / Public Network Post:

Attention, all personnel. This is Captain Christopher Pike. We find ourselves in a unique situation here. We’ve encountered some sort of anomaly. Roughly half of the crew of the Enterprise have disappeared. Simultaneously, residents of San Francisco have suddenly found themselves here. Let me be the first to welcome you to the U.S.S. Enterprise. I imagine everyone has a lot of questions, so let me attempt to answer them.

Ship tours will be available at 1000H, 1400H, and 1800H. (10am, 2pm, 6pm)

My ready room when you have a moment. Please.

Matt, Natasha, Yelena, Alex, Luke

If we were to suggest spending part of memorial day weekend getting married, would you all be able to make it? Because your presence is somewhat essential.

[FILTER TO 18+]

Guess who has another joke? It's me, I do.

What do you call a deaf gynecologist?

[...]

A lip reader.

Thank goodness I don't actually need my glasses to see properly because this mask doesn't allow me to wear both, and it also doesn't want to come off.

At least I'm appropriately attired for any Mardi Gras festivities.

[ filtered; Julie Molina ]

Okay. Okay try to not freak out because I'm totally not freaking out if you're not freaking out so that helps. Right? It helps.

Are you okay? Did anything happen?

I might have gotten married. I'm

I don't even know right now.

[ filtered; Mal ]

Hi.

That's about all I've got right now.

[ filtered; Matt Murdock ]

I'm sorry I called you a stalker.

Also: I might be married. HELP? Wait. Even better. Where are you??

[ filtered; BAND* + FAM ]

IS EVERYONE OKAY?? Like actually-okay not I HATED THE MIND GAMES THING because that's not okay in general.

Has anyone needed to do a marriage license at any sort of expedited pace? I might need some guidance.

[ filtered; MAL ]

So we're really doing this?

[ filtered; ENID SINCLAIR ]

It's stupid. I know. But it's [...] tell me it's not the worst idea ever. It'll fix some things.

You'd think that having a wedding planner means there would be less things to do, but somehow it doesn't seem that way.

[May]

If I wasn't too hopeless during our lesson the other day, are you free for another lesson next week?

Well, I'm back.

The City of lights hasn't changed too much since I've been away. Aside from the price of apartments.

I suppose I should choose a place a little more down to earth.

[CLARK KENT returns to Paris after 20 years and begins a journey of romance and rediscovery when they reconnect with MARJAN MARWANI, their college beau and first love.]

Why do I have an empty apartment?

Not being funny. I came home alone and woke up that way. It's not normal.

[Alex & Luke]

Would you two mind having the apartment to yourselves next weekend?

[Matt]

Next weekend. Road trip? Romantic getaway? What are you thinking?
