Second Chances: the Network

Luz's upcoming art show has given me an idea, but I need some volunteers.

I'm looking for 5-6 people willing to let me follow them discretely at night and take candids. I've never been one for portraiture, but I like capturing people in their unexpected moments.

Trust me, you won't even know I was there.

And I promise I won't use anything embarrassing or compromising.

_{[OOC: let's all pretend this was posted tonight]}

How is everyone? I understand the holidays can be hard for some humans.

[FILTER: Wanda]

How do you feel about Tommy asking to "learn to hit"?

I want him to be able to defend himself, but I want him to remember to rely on his mind as well.

Hey, now that things are a little chill again now, I need someone who is good at hitting to teach me how to be good at hitting.

Thanks.

Fuuuuuuck
There isn't enough alcohol in the world

Anyone got any tips and tricks for insomnia?

Margo
Busy this weekend?

Bat-Family
The Batmobile is here.

So ....


Molly and I went to get ice cream as a date like we usually do and we were waiting at the bus stop to take the bus home again like we usually do and then some guy come up to us and he was like "I found two of them" and like we were the only two people at the bus stop so I think he was talking about us but I have no idea who he is but he seemed to know who me and Molly are and that was not cool but he wasn't very friendly and he was talking to other people, but I didn't see them and I didn't want to get into a fight or let Molly get into a fight so I grabbed her and I ran as fast as I could but they have these traps for fast runners and it was like a trip wire or something and it knocked me off balance and I feel real hard and my arm really hurts and there is probably more of them throughout the city and I couldn't really pick up Molly anymore so we couldn't run but they were still looking for us so we tried to go around the long way and get back to the building but we got outside of the city and now we can't get back into the city and we don't really have any money for a hotel or nothing and I also don't know if hotels will let teenagers buy rooms

Has anyone actually talked to those keeping those roadblocks in place? Have they given any reason behind it? Or who's responsible? I'm having hunted-by-the-government related flashbacks and I don't exactly love it

We've got kids separated here, that can't be okay with anyone, right?

This is a new sort of new. Wasn't quite expecting this, but guessing no one does.

What the kriff- Name's Poe. Got the rundown and a key. Guess this will teach me to have a moment of wanting a vacation. My wish got twisted when granted or something.

I can't say this is what I was expecting today.

Apparently, I'm going to be here for awhile, so I might as well introduce myself. My name is Wanda Maximoff. I was told that this world is very similar to my own, and that there are people here who might know me.

[Filtered to Vision and Tommy Maximoff]

...I was told that you both are here.

OKAY SO. It's the end of September and I have to pull myself back together so you know what that means!

GIANT HALLOWEEN BASH! Edge of Glory will be hosting, costumes OBVIOUSLY encouraged. Go as wild as you want but important bits must be covered because I love you all but I'm not losing my liquor license for you. There will be prizes for some categories (think best group, spookiest, funniest, best mashup, coupl ah fuck it cutest couple, and probably more as I think about them).

Family friendly till 8, 18+ after that (and shouldn't you smol people be Trick or Treating anyway?)

Drink specials all night long and we'll be open till 2am. Halloween is on a Friday this year and we're going BIG so go practice your best Thriller and I'll see everyone there!

If anyone hears a smoke alarm going off on the 17th floor, ignore it. I've just removed the batteries and the offending pot of water and it won't be going off again anytime soon.

Eleven
I'm going to the store. Is there anything specific you like to eat or drink? Bonus points if it's something microwavable, but I'll figure something out if it's not.

Bat-Fam & SOs & Guardians & Wards & Eleven & also Clark
I'm ordering takeaway Saturday night and you're all invited over. You'll have the chance to meet Eleven, who's only recently arrived. Eleven, you'll get to meet everyone else.

Note that I said I'm ordering takeaway, so I will entertain zero comments about my cooking skills. Or any about the aforementioned smoke alarm.

Also, if there are any food allergies or aversions I don't already know about, speak up about it now.

And I am certainly not Alfred, but I'll make sure there are cookies.

Kaylee Frye
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you're an automechanic, right? I heard something about you owning a garage.

I will miss Elphaba deeply. I hope she can find happiness in her home.

[FILTER: Glinda]

Is there anything I might do for you?

Alright, freaks and geeks, it's officially the Earp birthday month. Let the chaos commence.

[WAVERLY + DOC]

But for real, the fuck are we doing for our birthdays, baby girl?

Today is my wedding anniversary. I know some will say it is not because Wanda used magic to create our reality, but it was very authentic to us both. I miss her and I mourn all the time we lost today. However, I also celebrate the great love we had between us.

It's been some time since I've been to San Francisco and this skyline is pretty different than I remember (unless you're counting archival photos, which I'm not). The Golden Gate bridge looks as expected, at least.

Hello, I'm Jim Kirk, newly arrived from a few hundred years in the future, but glad enough to be back in Earth for a while.

Free bowling, anyone?

If you're up against me, I can guarantee you'll win. The last time I went was when I was in the Underworld, and—with the benefit of hindsight—I think they put up permanent "bumpers" for everyone.

With the sudden influx of newcomers, I find myself a little homesick. Would you all mind introducing yourselves and telling me a bit about where you've come from? I'll go first.

My name is Elphaba and I came here from a land called Oz, along with my best friend Glinda. Oz is rather small by comparison to this world, but we have a singular large city in the middle of our provinces called the Emerald City where, yes, everything is green.

[FILTER TO THOSE NOT DE-AGED]

I never know what to do in these situations when I'm not affected as the others are, but I wish to help. Is there anything else needed done or are we at a point of simply waiting?

What in the cockamamie mess is this phony boloney horse pucky?

I haven't been here for that long but I have to say this place isn't half bad.

Is it possible to have too much caffeine to the point of anxiety? Because I'm wondering if I did that this morning since I didn't sleep very well last night. 😣

too many words
