SECOND CHANCES NET

school related question:

"Write about something that comes easily to you. What makes you so good at this particular thing?"

I'm super strong because that is my mutant power but i don't think that's what they mean. WHAT ARE YOU GOOD AT?

One of the most stressful things on TV is watching a baker's buttercream or mousse split, and there's no saving it. This is supposed to be downtime, and relaxing, but I'm tense watching a baking show.

Before you say anything, Yelena, I know I'm boring. It's fine. I'm embracing it. 😉🖤

At least I don't watch things like this and think I could do it. I'll leave the baking to the professionals.

[Private to James Rogers and Rapunzel]

Can I take you to dinner? Anywhere you'd like to go.

There's nothing wrong. I'd just like to spend time with you both.

[Private to Bucky Barnes]

Do you want to go to the drive-in this weekend?

Currently talking my family into a trip abroad this summer.

[Filter: Tony, Bruce, May, Peter, Dee, Ned]

How about a summer trip abroad this year? Beignets in Paris sound nice, don't they?

[Added later]

Well, now Peter has me sold on Costa Rica. What do you think?

There's this guy on YouTube who does these food challenges like eat this giant tray of mac and cheese in 30 minutes and you get a free t-shirt and the meal is free. And really, who needs college? I'll just go find a curly fries eating challenge and live off that.

I was going to sweep my wife off for an anniversary holiday but then we decided to be visited by a homicidal maniac who I can't say I appreciate having here.

So I'm going to do that now. We're leaving Friday, Emily no wild parties, Ned don't burn the shop down.

It's Steve. If you don't know, it's May. Warehouse. Find him. Node 361. A. Knows I'm here. Vision. You have to stop him.


( What Steve Actually Said )

_{[OOC: Steve won't be replying, but feel free to use this space to plot/plan!]}

Alright.

That was something.

I need a ride. I kind of... refused and then realized I don't have my wallet on me and walking sucks.

Enjoying winter in the city has its perks. I've yet to endure a cold night. But I'm grateful for spring to finally come in. And soon it'll be warm enough to get in the water. What is the thing to do here in the summer? I heard someone mention jet skis....

[ filtered to Loki privately ]
I don't believe we've been properly introduced. Let's change that.

Slade FUCKING Wilson, where the FUCK is my brother?

Brotherly love is getting your birthday present chucked at your face and it's a book. Contrary to what Jason says, no. It's not tradition back home to throw things at me today.

Yes, you are forgiven if you fell for his LIES.

[ filtered; Jason Todd ]

LITTLE WING. You didn't have to get me more gifts. Yes, I needed more oil for my gear. But where did you manage to get an escrima stick etched with the Nightwing symbol??

[Filtered to the adults, minus R. Hargreeves--- edited to add Molly]

It appears that Tommy has taken his dog and gone elsewhere ...

Okay, all you nerdy science types—or not nerdy science types—what the hell is going on around here? I'm willing to listen to anything at this point.

Okay... Go!

(ooc: by new people, I mean characters that just showed up after March 1st as part of the plot)

I really appreciate the concern.

I'm fine.

The squirrels are sad. Please offer them cashews or hazelnuts if you have any.

They would appreciate it.


[Pepper, May & Bruce]

Would... it be too cowardly if I ask to hand out with Miss Pepper and the girls? I just... don't want to be in the building for a few days.

(this is later in the evening, after epic!rescue happened)

I should have done something when he got here but I just froze like a None of you deserved any of that and I’m sorry.

Thanks for doing what you did.

[May]

I don’t think any of that about you.

[Dee]

I’m sorry. For everything.

[Alex]

I never would have just left you waiting like that

I get it if you never want to

My game is chess. Not Go. That was his game.

I don’t know why I’m telling you that but I couldn’t get it out of my head.

[FAMILY + May + Natasha]
Pretty late into the night hours after his talk with Sir Reginald, and after the captives are safe.

I’m going to the roof.

Don’t let me off the roof.

Don’t let me leave the building.

Hey so, I'm usually like, person number one to support the Multiverse and the varying versions and like, Peter 2 and Peter 3 are awesome don't get me wrong.

But I'm very much not okay right now and if you guys could maybe watch your back around the new guy just in case the Multiverse is not exactly on Peter Parker's side right now, that would be swell and I'd super duper appreciate it and I'm going to go look menacing on a building somewhere for a bit but like, if anyone ACTUALLY needs me, please say so thanks.

[FILTER: Anyone 18+ except Reginald]

I knew that foreboding feeling meant something.

I really picked a great day to be outside. Anyone else get caught in this?

(ooc: As noted on discord, the Nogitsune has done his disappearing and switcheroo with the real Stiles - journal for lack of confusion. Please to be assuming this all looks otherwise to be Stiles talking to everyone!)

[Filtered for 18+ Station Residents]

....Does anyone else need to let off steam? Realizing some of us have already been doing this, but there are days when I feel the need to hit something hard.

Guess what I'm saying is, who wants to start a fight club? There would be rules. No powers. Matches have to be even, etc.

I'm not here to see anyone get seriously hurt, but there are definitely days I could use something like this and I'm thinking I'm not alone clearly.

[Update - Filtered for only those who have agreed to join]

First meet-up this Friday. 11pm on the roof until we find a better venue. If you're interested, be there. Rules are listed below.

1. No super-powers. No weapons. This means blasting, firebombs, magic, etc. This is a physical fight. Try to keep it fair.

2. Fighters will be evenly matched. We don't need anyone getting too hurt up there.

3. Matches are over when the ref calls it. End of story. Don't argue. There's a reason it's done when it's done.

4. Anyone injured has to agree that they will immediately agree to be checked up on by one of our volunteers before settling down. We just wanna keep you alive.

5. Broken limbs, lost teeth, or any major injuries will result in an immediate end to the match and a trip to the local hospital. Or, at least, a visit to one of healers until you're all better.

That's it, I think.

Fuck. What the hell is this? I thought I was done with weird shit. I wanted to be done with weird shit. I swear to God if this is Wake's fault he's going to find himself on the wrong end of my gun.
