In The Tardis

For those of you that expressed an interest in learning swordsmanship, I thought perhaps we might convene tomorrow afternoon? It likely won’t be anything too taxing, I shall need to get an idea of what levels of ability I am dealing with to determine how to best move forward. There will be a small stock of weapons but if you have your own do please feel free to bring them.

Everyone is more than welcome to join, even if you had not already expressed an interest.

I wondered if you might perhaps consider assisting me if a demonstration might be called for?




[ooc: directions are attached to this post, to a room on the TARDIS that contains a large open field.]

Public service announcement that Dean Winchester is the worst brother ever, after catching a moose shaped Pokémon and then giving it to me because he thinks he’s hilarious.

Guess, it could’ve been worse. Could’ve been Mr Mime. Honestly, dude, you might be slipping.

Does anyone else have reservations about fighting ten year olds, even if it's with Pokemon? Especially since the loser is supposed to give away money? I feel like I'm taking some kid's lunch money.

It doesn't help that it's also considered the biggest insult if you turn down a Pokemon battle. Though I question what their idea of "eye contact" is. My back has been turned, and then some kid is challenging me to a battle.

The Riolu that decided that it liked my aura and wanted to come along with me really seems to like battling, too, so it's hard to say no.

Especially to that cute face.

I've investigated the recent disappearances. In addition to T'Challa and Shuri, going through the records in the TARDIS' console, there have been five other disappearances, Kate Bishop, Logan Echolls, Veronica Mars, Mel Medara, and Jinn.

There doesn't really appear to be a reason why they were sent home, and judging from the data we were able to pull, they were sent back to their home universes. It would also seem that when someone is sent home, all of their belongings vanish, and their rooms are cleared out. Out of these seven, Shuri and T'Challa were here the longest, the others weren't here very long.

So, apparently, we can get home, there just doesn't seem to be any control over how and when we get home. Like being pulled here, it appears to be done at random by the TARDIS herself.

I know Martha and myself will be looking into this further, but Martha's the TARDIS expert, and this is still something that she's never experienced.

For the time being, we'll keep looking into this, and if there are any more disappearances, maybe we can try and pick up on a pattern or something. But so far, it appears to be at random.

I'll try and answer any questions as best as I can, but Martha probably has better answers than I do.

In the meantime, I hope everyone's enjoying Kalos. If anyone wants someone to go exploring with, I'm here.

It seems Shuri and T'Challa are no longer here.

I tried to reach both of them and neither answered.

I have a question.

What are we meant to do with these creatures if we've caught one?

Earlier in the day while walking in the woods, Steve Harrington stumble across an elegant white stag. As soon as the stag disappeared, King Oberon appeared to him, and named him as official Lord Of Avalon. In honor of Steve's new nobility, King Oberon and Queen Titania have thrown a grand royal ball starting in the evening, and all are welcome to attend in their finest attire, which the wardrobe room in the TARDIS will provide.

At the stroke of midnight, characters will find themselves onboard the TARDIS, where she will depart Avalon and head off for destinations unknown...

There will be the option of IC/OOC threads in the comments! Have fun!

Winning a bet with a fairy wasn't something I expected to happen today.

dream.

How's your sister feeling?

I seem to have managed to turn my luck around with these little annoyances. They're actually turning out to be quite useful.

thor.

You had questions the other day and I'm feeling generous. Ask what you'd like, but I won't promise to answer all of them.

This is not something I ever expected to have any insight into - but I have renewed admiration for those of you amongst us who are parents. Babysitting is quite exhausting.

It is, however, also rather fun.

To those of you that expressed an interest in sparring, after some reconnaissance yesterday I believe I have found a room that would be suitable. Thanks to Thor, I have ruled out the lagoon. But there appears to be a room that is merely an open field which should allow us ample space. If any of our new arrivals would like to opt in then of course you are most welcome.

Also, it occurs to me that there may be those among us who have an interest in developing combat skills without having had the means to do so. To that end I am happy to teach anyone that would like to learn. Given that we do not know what the TARDIS may bring us to at any given moment, perhaps this may be prudent for safety in the future.

Twenty minutes of being flung around the ship has left me completely disoriented and I have to say, the large white wolf is an interesting new hallucination.

I have absolutely no desire to go back out into Avalon, considering all the trouble these Fae have caused. I do, however, find myself with an abundance of pent up energy and I am in need of releasing some frustr of it.

Would anyone be interested in sparring with me? I generally favour swords but I could settle for hand to hand combat if that would be preferable.

My kid is a kid and I am not impressed.

At least she's still cute?

I got nothing.

When the hell are we getting off this rock? Because I'm over it.

After everything that’s already happened this week, I figured it might be an idea to continue the trend of friendly advice - especially since I’m guessing a lot of people won’t be hugely familiar with having dealings with fairies.

- the buddy system is obviously great advice if you really have to venture out. It’d also be a good idea to arm yourselves if possible with something made of iron or silver. It won’t kill most fairies but it’ll sure as hell slow them down.
- you could also carry some kind of grains or seeds. If you drop them in front of a fairy they’ll have to stop and count each grain. Salt or sugar works too. Again, handy for slowing them down.
- offerings are good if you want to try and keep on their good side - apparently cream is a favourite with certain types.

If anyone needs any kind of help here or if you think you’re in over your head, reach out to me or my brother, Dean. There is a spell that can banish them, but since it sends them back to Avalon that may only be useful if they’re causing trouble on the Tardis. and to be honest it might just piss them off

[Tony]
Given what happened with the kid, I’d be remiss if I didn’t ask what you know about changelings? People who go missing around fairies don’t always come back the same.

If anyone is in need of a host, I've certainly one to spare. I haven't been left alone since we arrived.

I really need to remind myself to poke my head out of my room more often. Hi, new people! There are so many of you! I'm Ray Palmer, I've been on the TARDIS for awhile and I'm sorry I haven't made the rounds to greet you. I kind of get to working on my own projects and lose track of time.

I know you've all been pulled from your homes and that's not great but you do kinda have to admit this is pretty amazing.

I am going to go out on a limb and assume the gift was from you.

You've made a little girl very happy. She says thank you and she would like to know when she can go skating with you.

Alright, now that the lockdown's been lifted and Tony is out of that cage, I suppose we should get back to explanations.

Firstly, welcome to the TARDIS. Hullo, I'm Martha. I'm a doctor and former TARDIS resident and am more than happy to answer any questions you might have about the ship herself, assuming I've the answer.

Myself and a small group found ourselves aboard the TARDIS a little more than two months ago. We have spent the time since trying to gain access to other currently closed off areas of the TARDIS as well as attempting to figure out why and how she's brought us here.

At present, my theory is she's searching for the Doctor, her partner and a friend of mine. Searches of the TARDIS and internal scans have proven that he is nowhere aboard. Under normal circumstances, and let's face facts, when we were hiding in 1913 or that time we got stuck in 1969 were far from normal! the Doctor would never leave the TARDIS alone for this length of time, thus I can only conclude that something must have happened. Which has me very concerned.

A few things to know about life aboard the TARDIS:
TARDIS is an acronym that stands for Time and Relative Dimensions in Space. As the name suggests, she is a time and space ship and she is alive. The TARDIS is aware of everyone on the ship through a low level psychic connection, which is how she is aware of our needs, as far as rooms and other things. This is also how she provides instant translation services via translation circuit so we can speak to locals wherever we are. She also has various ways of warning us of incoming danger. She has a personality of her own, and is very protective of those she's chosen, so if you are nice to her, she will be nice to you. She has a very long memory.

We are still attempting to figure out how we are being brought here, though I believe she is either searching for the Doctor or bringing people here who she feels can help. I've recently gotten access to the console room - which is the control room - and am going through logs. I will report with what I find.

If you have additional questions, please feel free to direct them to myself or any of us who have been here a while. I look forward to meeting all of you.
-Martha

I must say the wardrobe made my morning.

I can pick out a pair of jeans and a blouse or wear clothing from Wakanda.

Truly, the fact I have both options makes me like this place just a little more.

The Netflix is most misleading.

I believe this ‘Ninja Warrior’ may be a misnomer, it does not appear to have anything to do with actual combat. Their agility is most impressive, but I suspect not one of them would make it off a battlefield alive.

Does anyone know if we have access to something to record on?

Tag dump, nothing to see here.
