Multiverse of Madness

Well this certainly isn't Beacon Hills?! Derek, Boyd, Isaac? Where's my boys?

If anyone is out in the woods and comes across an old house, please stay away.

1) Because it's dangerous.

2) Because it's mine.

I've included pictures below, just for reference and to show how serious I am about the request.

( Do Not Approach )

Please don't be alarmed if you see a dog flying around. Krypto is harmless, though I am trying to make him realise the vital need for us to stay under the radar here.

He has similar powers to myself, but usually spends a lot of his time in space. Being grounded will be an adjustment for him, but one I'm certain he's capable of.

Since I never really understood the need for specific New Year's resolutions since everyone breaks them, I am just going to promise myself to try to do better.

I never was good at tech...is this thing on?

Hey, I'm Noah and I'm new here.

[Sounds of things being thrown and broken as they hit something or somethings solid.]

DESSERTS ARE MEANT TO STAY. GOOD CUTTING AND ILLEGAL PROTECTION OVER TIME! NO BLUE HANDS WAITING!

I CAN'T FEEL HIM. GONE GONE GONE GONE Gone gone gone gone gone gone gone gone

[Sounds of more things being thrown and broken as they hit something or somethings solid.]

Everyone was very right about how disconcerting it is to suddenly have two sets of simultaneous memories. I can hardly tell what was yesterday and what was months ago, and I miss my family all the more for having just seen them. I apologise if I'm a little off-kilter over the next few days.

Happy Halloween. Not sure if I'm a Trick or a Treat, but you got me anyway.

Bucky Barnes, James to some. I've been told I was here before. I don't remember. I'm from 2023. We had a Snap, I was erased, came back, fought Thanos, worked with Cap, fixed a boat. Now I'm here.

It goes on and on and on. Cold and empty. Dissonance felt through bones. Dancing at the edge.

Well that wedding was just about the nicest party I've ever been to. Awful kind to be invited just on account of being brought here by a portal. Congrats Wanda and Vision- you got something we all oughta hope we find one day.


[Zari]

Hey Zari,

Thanks again for showing me the ropes. Ain't looked so glamorous in my whole life, can't wait for the Masquerade either.

Can I get you a coffee or something? Cake? Being a stellar fashion godmother gotta have some perks.

Hello! I am Thor, son of Odin. I have been told that this network will allow me to communicate with others who have traveled through the portal, as I have.

Though, I have also been told that there are others here who know me already--those of this planet. I have many questions.

I'm lonely in my house so--

§ Remember when I asked about getting a droid or a pet? I settled on a pet for now. Two actually. I adopted two adult cats because the shelter is overrun with them and that is just sad. I might volunteer there.

§ My foster parents said they'd take them in if I disappear so I don't have to worry about what happens to them when if I leave.

( Kitties under the cut... )

Reminder that if you want somewhere really low key to hang out, the quiet room in office #117 has jigsaws, colouring books, kinetic sand, and a few other things like that to play with.

And since it's still sort of warm out, if you want to meet Percy we're going to be on the lawn behind the residential area. He would love to bring you things. Sometimes you don't even need to throw them first, the other day I started with one stick and ended up with four.

I'm also wondering if it would help to have somewhere people could write notes about those who've left. Sometimes writing things down, having a tangible reminder that they were here, can be comforting.

I have the feeling that something is... wrong but I do not yet know what.

[Torunn]
A house is ready for you. Is there anything more you desire?

[Midgard friends]
How does one purchase a vehicle?

[Loki]
Something is not... sitting well with me. I was wondering if there was some... magic we could configure to ensure that my daughter's home is more protected?

Please do not be alarmed if you see a floating, green dog. Sparky is completely harmless, but may phase into kitchens in search of treats. I am currently attempting to reconfigure him to discourage this behavior.

Thank you.

These decorated Pumpkins I keep seeing around, is there a tradition behind it other than the fact they grow this time of year?

Pretty sure BD-1 is never going to get his fill of finding new designs.


[Rey]
So you find the foundations of the Jedi Order and our understanding of Force and I've come across a familiar Poncho. Not the greatest contribution to our training, but hey, if you get cold, there's a Poncho.

This place is so strange. I'm guessing we don't when or how these portals open? It seems a lot of people left at once.

Happy fall, everyone. I arranged transport from the facility, New Asgard, and Little Wakanda to a local pumpkin patch on Sunday. The buses leave their respective areas at 11:00 a.m. You'll be able to pick, carve, and paint pumpkins while drinking apple cider and munching on cider donuts. I hope you have a wonderful time.

Oh wow! This is a really swanky place you've got here! Really high-tech, I don't think I've ever seen something like this before!

Thanks for the welcome, Dere-Bear, Johnny! Remember what I said about loosening up. You don't have to be so grumpy and stiff all time! Have some fun. Go out, get drunk, break someone's kneecaps, get laid, whatever floats your boat.

Harley Quinn, good to meetcha!

Anyone know where I can get a good egg and cheese sandwich?

I suppose this is something I really should have thought about earlier so thank you to Mr. Hargreeves for the reminder.

Many of you came to us from different times and different planets, never mind the dimensional differences. If you have not yet visited us in the medical center, please make it a point to come by. Your immune systems are probably vastly different from what is native to this world. A quick checkup and a vaccine schedule would be beneficial to many of you, I'm sure.

[Kaylee, River, Mal, Jayne]

That includes all of you. If nothing else, it's apparently flu season down here.

Okay someone entertain me before I go insane...at least out in the black I had the potential of some kind of fight on the horizon. This is just ruddin boring.

I can't remember the last time I was this happy. Is that strange? I mean yeah I miss some of my other friends, but this place is kind of peaceful....and then there's other things that have contributed to it.

Hi. Yes, it's me. I'm back. I will explain things later, including why there's a large mansion suddenly next to an unzoned space in New Asgard.

Right now, I need rest. And a shower. And a sandwich.



[Avengers, Friends, and Team Science]

I'm back. Celebrations for later, we need to talk now. Meet me in the science lab. Someone order pizza.



[Pepper and Morgan]

I love you both. I need to talk to the science team then I'm coming to find you- or you can just get down here and we can talk afterward.

You know what, just come by the labs. I want to see you both, okay?


[Rhodey]

I'm back. Drinks. We're doing drinks later.

I was always taught the Force guides us down paths we don't always expect. But, I'm not sure there was anything about portals into completely different worlds. So, this is new. I'd only just settled aboard the Mantis

I'm Cal, and my buddy BD-1 made it here in one piece too, he seems pretty eager to take a look around.

I have noticed that due to certain developments over the past week, there has been a lot of stress. Due to my celestial abilities, I am capable of doing many things. I would like to offer my assistance, even if you just need me to stand guard somewhere for hours. Please, let me know if there is anything I can do for you.

EDITED TO ADD

[James Barnes]
Hello, my name is Castiel, and I was told that I should contact you in regards to joining your portal team.

Let me humbly apologize for the previous misunderstanding. I am Loki, Prince of Asgard. I see that you have already met other variants of myself.

I understand that this is a multiverse of some sort, different from my own. We are grateful for the hospitality we have received thus far.

And I apologize for your guards.

Well, it's not Asgard, but it's not the Void either. I suppose this will do.

Hello. I am Loki, King of the Void and I have been burdened with glorious purpose. I promise to be a fair and omnipotent ruler for your world if you take the knee without protest.

Otherwise, I can promise you will regret the consequences.

THEY CRY. THEY STAND AND STAND AND YOU DON'T HEAR THE SCREAMS.

THE PHANTOMS WALK IN YOUR SHOES AND MOCK THE SMILES.

Unseen again! War stories in the wind.

(ooc: as a note ALL of River's replies are voice posts)

The steps turn into numbers. Bodies and physics in motion. I see them on the wall.

They don't lie. They don't have answers, but puzzle pieces need sun to grow.

[The Team who went into space]

You can stop your efforts to find Thanos. He's been confirmed dead.

Full discloser: I've been planning a trip to finally get to the bottom of the Thanos situation. So far, those going consists of Malcolm Reynolds crew, Monica, Valkyrie, and Rogers.

I know there might be others interested in getting to the bottom of this, but it's probably a good idea to keep it small. We'll be doing some salvaging as well to take back pieces to analyze.

Frankly, I know we're all tired of wondering and waiting. If he's out there, I'll find him. And if he's not, we're going to find out what happened.

[Loki]

The Collector expressed an interest in going home. We're taking him along. I have assurance from Nova Corps they'll be looking after him on Knowhere while we're sorting this mess out.

Well Shiny! Guess I get a vacation.....but I still better get paid.

Welcome home to our team that was in space. I hope you found what you were looking for.

Clint, I borrowed your dog to play ball outside for a while. If anyone wants to come and join me, I'll be in the front.

If you want the in-depth breakdown, talk with Tony and Darcy. They'll be able to answer your questions.

If you want to talk, debate, yell, punch, or throw things because we didn't tell you, come see me. Raise even a finger to anyone who was on this mission, you deal with me. Non-negotiable.

We’re heading back.

Everyone is accounted for and alive.

( Update )

I'd say what we need is a puppy playroom, except then someone would have to be responsible for taking care of the puppies.

If people ever need to get some energy out though, there's always laser tag or paintball.

Does anyone else find it suspicious the government didn’t come crashing down our door after the Mind Stone thing?

Planning a trip into the city this weekend. It’s been awhile since I’ve had a break. Anyone want to come with?

[Rhodey]

Any updates from command? I got nothing when I tried to check in. I left a message I’ll be leaving Earth for a short time. I suspected them to be more concerned about that.

[Firefly Crew]

I think it’s time to up the game plan. I’m suspecting Tony’s up to something space related, but he’s been keeping it hush on what it is. I don’t plan on poking around too much, the guy’s been on the edge for the past few weeks.

That said, we need to figure out what happened to Thanos one way or another. That means we’re leaving soon, preferably next week. I’m not sure how long we’ll be gone, but I trust Mail can come up with a timeframe for when we’ll depart.

Just be ready. I’ll brief you and answer any questions you have here.

[Monica]

Have you talked to your mom recently?

I gave Mal the heads up about putting together the next mission. We are probably leaving next week. Do you think you can be ready by then?

[Thor]

Just checking in with you. How are you holding up?

I have been reading Earth literature lately, mostly romances. I am still not sure how human mating rituals work. Maybe someone can help me understand?

I feel like there is a lot of pain described, but people also get pleasure from it? Is this normal? And why are there so many words for the male penis? So many descriptors! It does make it hard to follow the story.

Do humans go into heat or do they mate this much normally?

[Filtered to Private 18 Hours after it's first posted]

It's you.

Of course it's you.

With your blue eyes and million watt smile and your amazing ass.

Who else would it be?

I kind of hate you, but I really don't. Even though I should.

Whatever. You're hotter. Just take the stupid compliment and leave me alone.




_{((OOC note: all replies will be dated the next day))}

Objects in space. In spaces they shouldn't be.

One to two, two to four, four to eight. And on and on an on and on and on.

Happy, sad, death, birth, war, peace.

So, it's come to my attention that there are people who think we are holding something back after the last visit. I get it. It's a lot. There's a lot going on.

I think Sam did a pretty good job summarizing it, but since there are some newcomers here that don't feel they know everything and don't know how to use Google or just ask me or anyone else, here. This is an entire history of the Avengers, what we know about the Power Stones, Thanos, and everything in between. It also explains the Sokovian Accords.

We've done this before. Several times. I've had meetings weeks ago about this, and I just don't have time to keep sitting everyone down and giving the rundown for this place. So it's now up to you. Read the attached files and please make yourself acquainted.

And if anyone wants to take over, by all means. Do it. I'm really, REALLY tired of trying to save people and I'm okay with retiring. You can have it all: the facility, the responsibility, all of it. Hell, you can deal with the president the next time she comes to town. And you can deal with the portals, too.

If you think you can do a better job, sign up below. Thanks.
