Crown Plaza IC

Just when I thought the unsettling disappearances and reappearances were over for a bit, the hotel surprises me with a mass exodus. How very unfortunate. I find I never quite think about all of the losses and potential connections missed until a person is gone from my life.

[Private to Bucky & Zemo]
I trust you are both still around?

[Private to Steve]
I hadn't wanted to bother you or confuse you further by reaching out, but in light of the most recent slew of residents being returned home, I just wanted to check and make sure you're still here.

Has anyone else experienced issues with the special magic earring and still getting sent home?

[Private to Natasha]
Is it always like this? I didn’t expect to feel so… hurt. I know it’s not like they chose to leave us.

[Private to Will]
Thor is gone. You’ll probably be glad it’s quieter So is Steve. At least the one we met before. I don’t know if Bucky knows yet, but if he does, I’m sure it’s difficult for him as well.

[Private to Bucky]
How are you?

[Private to Steve]
Hello. You probably don’t remember me. Natasha said you wouldn’t. Has she talked to you about me?

You know what just occurred to me? There’s no better time for paired card games and drinking. There’ll always be an even number, and there’s no reason to not sit in a comfortable circle and have a good time.

Might as well make the most of it, right? Claire drinks a mean tequila.

I do not yet have enough data to understand how I am here. Would you someone please give me more?

In a rather twisted turn of events, I seem to have been bonded to Baron Zemo in this latest bout of hotel shenanigans. I woke up in the spare bed in his room and, like I have seen others discuss, we cannot seem to venture beyond 10 feet of one another.

Are you alright?

Well, this is awkward.

Is anyone else having this problem of not being able to get very far away from another person?

Also, almost got decapitated by giant flying battle axe. That would have been a cool way to die.

[Steve Rogers]

Uh, So - I was talking to Miles about some of the people I've meet since being here. I wondered if we could maybe put together one of those Avenger types parties for him to get to meet everyone?

[Private to Natasha]
I need to borrow the vest for a little bit longer.

Also, I might need to ask you something. Sisterly advice

[Private to Steve]
I'm sorry I haven't been around lately for movie nights. I have been neglecting the fast and furious cars.

[Private to Will]
How do you feel about small dinner parties?

What: Hotel tomfoolery.
Status: Completed.

( Well, this is new. )

Hello?

Okay, great. This is so not what I had in mind when I said I'd consider studying abroad.
