You going to be okay if this storm does hit? It's going to get loud.

IT LOOKS LIKE A NIGHTMARE OUTSIDE

I think I can help.

Hello, I was told to talk to you. I'm another telekinetic.

[FILTERED TO DECLAN LYNCH]

There's a good chance I'm gonna end up outing myself trying to help with this shit. If you got a miracle plan B up your sleeves or you just wanna warn me we're done if I do, speak now or forever shut the fuck up about it.

[FILTERED TO ADAM PARRISH]

Wanna help me brainstorm ideas? I don't think I can do anything big enough to protect the whole hotel. I could maybe do something to put on the glass to make it shatterproof, but that wouldn't help the walls.

Oi, right. Holiday's over. We've got a big bloody storm incoming and we need to do more than board up the windows and hope for the best. Anybody got fancy tricks enough to keep this main building safe and intact? Now's the time to cough up whatever you've got that'll help.

Anybody who hasn't got that kind of power up their sleeves, now's the time to start rounding up emergency supplies and squirreling 'em down in the basement. We were mostly fucked for teamwork in Soviet Candyland, so maybe we do a better showing this time out.

I know at this point we're kind of like 'oh, it's dark as fuck outside, wonder what will happen, maybe storm, maybe not, y/n??' And not to harsh anyone's mellow but this TED Talk is to inform you that there's a storm coming and it's literally going to chew up the hotel and spit it out in a pile of debris. I'm like the world's shittiest seer but that vision was pretty clear cut.

The erupting volcano was less clear cut, so I'm thinking either we all perish in the storm OR get burned up by lava in the next room.  Either way, it's crispy.

But maybe focus on the issue closest first, so.  Do we actually have a plan re: the super storm?  Like, yeah, we could bring the beach chairs inside but I saw that sides of hotel walls were missing so it might take a little more prep, if we can't figure out a way to stop it entirely.   
    
( I even drew a picture of it because that's what you do when you get psychic visions. )

There's like, lightning and rain and look, I already said I'm a shitty seer but doingmybest.gif

By now, I suppose some of you will have noticed that "Irma" and myself are still with you. You may be wondering why some of the "natives" from the last room followed you here. You may soon have other questions, and we are prepared to answer the ones we can.

My name is Helmut Zemo, of Sokovian Military Intelligence. My colleague is Sharon Carter, of the Central Intelligence Agency. And this is not the first time I have been in a place like this.

Scenic.

The pervasive darkness is a nice touch.

This puzzle doesn't fill me with a lot of confidence that the weather is going to clear. If I've got it right, it reads: For many days we had been tempest-tossed. Six times had the darkness closed over a wild and terrific scene, and returning light as often brought but renewed distress, for the raging storm increased in fury until on the seventh day all hope was lost.

… which is the opening sentence from The Swiss Family Robinson. If you weren't as big on books as I was as a kid, it's about a family that shipwrecks near an island and has to learn to survive there.

So maybe everyone planning around a storm has the right idea, is what I'm saying.

I've been trying for the last few hours, but I can't do anything about the clouds.

But I was able to make some of the paving stones on the walkways light up, so it should be a little easier to not fall in the pool.

Like Loki just did.

There is nothing I like more than Steve Rogers telling an asshole to stfu.

Maybe.

I, for one, am always excited to see a plague of darkness upon the land.

Even so, I’m looking forward to taking the risk of choosing the exit door at the next opportunity.

What are we going to do about this storm? I'm going to the lifeguard for some life vests because my ass isn't swimming anywhere but the bottom of the ocean.

See, what this place was really missing was ominous darkness. Now we're all fucking set.

[FILTERED TO GANGSEY]

I'm gonna dream a couple storm-proof lanterns just in case this freaky ass sky means we're about to get our shit rocked. We might wanna see if we can find some non-perishables to stash too.

How sure are we that that new puzzle isn't just a tweet from Cher?
