Incomplete Data: A panfandom, multi-world RP.

So we've been at this gold thing for a while. How many people have cashed in any of what they've found for those "special" currency we're supposed to be collecting? It sounds a bit like the prize tickets they give out in the Coney Island arcades if you ask me: meaning they aren't worth much.

[Lima Block]

That said, I think it's important that we, as a collective, cash in at least a portion of everything we find since we should be looking at this as a group. I plan to give it an extra push for Lima specifically if we're still doing this over the next couple days.

I don't want the block to be left behind because we failed to co-operate.

Clint is gone.

Hurts a little. Especially with the anniversary of -- you know -- coming up.

I feel like someone should be drawing wands at high noon or something round here.

This is a test.

Can anyone at the compound read this?

I figure that being given the job of janitor was meant to be annoying to me somehow, but honestly? Our captain back home is a clean freak and made us clean even when we didn’t need to. We also didn’t have half of the equipment and supplies back home we do here. So this is always over with much quicker than it ever was when he got into a mood. Jokes on you, I guess?

Harry Potter 'verse

Hello, for those who I haven't met I'm Tina Goldstein. I'm wondering if any of you would like to practice some duelling with me? I don't want to lose any of my skill through lack of use.

As Barbara mentioned, right now the library seems to be suffering a shortage of books that aren't directly related to philosophy, published before 1870 or [...] novelizations of Everyone Loves Raymond and The Golden Girls -- which if anyone would like to borrow Golden Girls books, they're going to have to ask Wade Wilson to return.

We mean to petition the scientists for more books, but it's important to us that we ask for books that you - as a community - would like to read. Therefore we've created a short survey for anyone interested to fill out. Once we get a fair number, I'll bring the list to Echo.

In addition, I'd love it if anyone would like to talk to us about the books they love and why.

Two things.

1. Who do I have to talk to about the atrocious selection of books in the library?

2. At least the bunk beds in Hotel felt less claustrophobic than these ... and I like small tight spaces.

I’m really not sure that farming is where my skills would be best put to use.

I recognize that growing your own organic vegetables is a thing that a certain subset of wealthyish white people like to do - often people who compost their own food waste, put jade eggs in weird places, and make terrariums out of repurposed light bulbs - but it’s really never spoken to me. I’m the wrong kind of white people.

Security Team Members

We should discuss this team and how we're working together. Also, what precisely we believe we're keeping us secure from.

Howard

Are you still around?

WHOA - O! WE'RE HALFWAY THERE ... !!

I've got an ear worm and I can't shake it!

WHOA - O! LIVIN' ON A PRAYER.

I wonder what happens if the scientists lose their funding.

I would like to see something for my own interest. I've spoken to some of the other council members about the idea of reducing the number of squads, and allowing for two representatives from each of the reduced squads to serve on the council, due to the fact so many in our ranks have recently disappeared.

Changing squads totals and organisations would require constitutional amendments, and this post is not for those arguments. Instead, I just want to see:

Find your name on the list and put yourself into one of these six squads. If you had complete control, who would you want to be with? You can discuss it in this post, if there are logistics to work out, but I want to see what everyone would want, had they the choice.

There's a question I've been pondering as of late. And this place -- divorced from reality as it may be -- has added to my wondering:

What are the circumstances under which it is acceptable to lie?

Newt & Singularity

Have the two of you been to the training yet?

Shit.

Has anyone else found any beans? It did not seem harmful so I decided to eat it and I now have the flock of the most gorgeous Butterflies following me around.

What else have people's beans done?

I have been thinking about this recently. While there are some people here who know the scenario from their home worlds there are many of us who do not. While many of us are already participating on these adventures, would it perhaps make more sense to have someone who is familiar in each group to assist us?

Well, at least the dragons here are a curious sort. I have greatly enjoyed this aspect of being here.

Quiet stars, quiet night
But even still there is light
All this singing
Lots of winging
What is there to do?

Harry Potter 'verse & Singularity

Newt and I are working together. Do others wish to join us? I feel the more the better given the scenario we find ourselves in.
