Multiverse of Madness

I guess I can cross universe hopping off of my bucket list now.

If we could try and keep life-threatening medical emergencies at a minimum this weekend, I think I can speak for the entire medial team when I say, it would be appreciated.

I have two announcements to make:

The first being that as of a couple of weeks ago, Vision and I are officially engaged. We just wanted to enjoy the time as a newly engaged couple to ourselves before letting others know. We do not have a set date, but are looking to get married in October, as we would like to be officially married as soon as possible.

The second announcement ties into this as well, Vision and I are planning to move to New Asgard by the end of the month. We will both still be active around the compound to help, but we wish to have more of a space to ourselves, and Thor has graciously offered to allow us to move.

I would be honored if you would both be my co-maids of honor.

As for the matter of this...other me killing Thanos, I want it known that I stated to Carol that I am not pleased that I was not informed right away, and had to learn second hand. It also hurts me to know that there were also discussions of me getting a handler like I am some sort of child.

I am aware that my powers frighten the governments of the world. However, I am personally tired of constantly worrying about people being afraid of me or not. I would also like to not disclose this information, as personally, as far as I am concerned, no one needs to know that Thanos died at the hands of some other version of me.

Furthermore, I would like to be included in any future conversations related to this matter from the beginning please. I understand that people were afraid of upsetting me, but I can assure you, I am an adult, and am more than capable of handling big news developments such as this.

It should also be said that just because some other version of me decided to apparently go back in time and murder Thanos, it does not mean that I would make the decisions.

I was angry at first, when I found out, I will admit. But now, I think I am more disappointed than anything else. I am, however, willing to discuss it, if there is anything further to discuss.

Can people who aren't students get access to books in university libraries or do I have to make myself a student ID or something?

Each of the places I have seen that are part of this are beautiful, and not at all the same. Today I have visited Little Wakanda, seeing all the public areas and trying to imagine what it would be like to live here. I was given that choice when I arrived. I didn't know what I was choosing.

I have another several hours. Is there anything here or near here that's not obvious, that would be good for me to see or do?

I'm in dire need of a mocha. Not just a coffee, but something fancy today. I think I've earned it--I've been such a good girl, just ask my doctors. No stitches or broken bones. At least, not yet I think this might be the longest I've gone without even a bruise. And it's so boring

I want to thank the Gods or whatever for giving human beings the idea to put chocolate and coffee together into one glorious drink. Like, the best glorious drink. Now the only question is hot or iced? And size. Need a big one today, I think.

Does anyone wanna go with me? Mocha time??

Now I am in an American research facility.

Would anyone like me to bring you a cup of tea or coffee?

Huh.

Right then.

You have fancy technology here so I guess there's that. Don't suppose you've got tea? The real kind. With the leaves and what have you.

But I'm not a year old yet...

Should have known it wasn't like Diana to just not show up at work.

Today really stinks. It's one of those times I miss just being able to hop a jet to Belgium. Museums and chocolates and possibly a decent caper.

If you're all done with the pissing matches, I think it's time for drinks and dancing again.

It's supersoldier objectification appreciation hour.



Who's hotter, Steve Rogers or James Barnes?

ETA:
Finished all my work for the day so I'm gonna call it here with a tie. Today's lesson is people have different tastes, who knew?

I haven't felt pain like that since...

Medical's aware of the headaches. We're looking into them. Reports are coming in.

We're requesting residents of the Compound, Little Wakanda and New Asgard come in to schedule scans as we try to figure out what caused these.

I think I can speak for most of us when I say that today's meeting with the president was stressful.

I find when I am stressed, I like to cook.

If anyone is interested, I have made a giant pot of spaghetti with sausage and meatballs. There is also garlic bread and salad, as well.

Please feel free to help yourselves, and save some for others.

It will take me a while longer to really get used to how flimsy this thing is, but I think I've at least gotten the hang of using it. So it's probably time to ask if there's a veterinary practice or wildlife rescue anyone knows of around here that needs an assistant or if I have to pull out the Yellow Pages. Does that even exist still? Failing that, I've got three years of experience in conservation work and political lobbying.

Hello All,

I am pleased to announce that thanks to the generosity of Loki and Thor, we've been able to finally get a small shop up and running in New Asgard.



We're open most days, but we're short-staffed at the moment (since it's only Donna and I running it) from 6am to 6pm. Please do stop by if you want a cuppa. It's right next to the Asgardian Library!

Oh, and we're hiring if you're interested!

Don't get me wrong, I truly am appreciative of you all accepting those of us taken in by all of this but...

Is there truly no reverse on this portal thing? I'm relatively needed back home. I've got some family issues to deal with that are, well, kind of crucial I guess maybe.

I know history, but this is going a bit too far back for me. Paleontology is not really my thing.

It was kind of cool, though

Guessing it's probably still not smart to go petting herbivores, is it?

We got dinosaurs people!! Not a drill. Repeat this is NOT a drill. Someone call Spielberg because we're going Jurassic.

Science team is working on it... Holy shit...

Has the portal stabilized for the moment? My grace appears to have returned to a normal level and I wonder if there is some sort of connection.

You don't have to think so loud. I can hear you all the same.

To all people of this community,

I am sure it has not escaped your keen eyes that the people of Asgard have started to rebuild our community. Asgardians are strong in their nature and build but they are not immune to tragedy. With that said, my brother and I, would greatly appreciate your help for the restoration of the Asgardian community.

There are a few positions, we look into filling.

Construction workers/advisors: Anyone who has experiences in construction work and could either support my nation with it or act as advisory staff.
Drivers: Our people are not skilled in piloting the favoured transportations of Midgardians. For now, we will need to rely on the help of Midgardian drivers.
Midgardian advisors: Some of our people have mentioned the wish to learn more about Midgardian culture and rituals.
Farm workers: We wish to set up our own farm. The differences between Asgardian and Midgardian farming are substantial and we wish to rely on our own produce and animals. That said, additional helping hands, especially those with experience in agriculture will be needed.
Catering: Our construction workers are in need of catering. We need the services of those skilled in the kitchen who could set up a temporary service.
Security: Additional security will be needed, especially during the night time, to protect the village.

To anyone interested, we can pay well for services provided and if more long-term arrangements are wished, accommodation can be handled.

King Loki of Asgard

Portals and I don't get along.

I want to do something fun. Does anyone have any suggestions? I need to get out of my head.

Yesterday was National Donut Day. I hope everyone treated themselves!

Is all the housing here like this? Lots of light and space and air? It's different than the castle and the citadel. I thought maybe it was only the compound but I think here has even more of it all. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to fill in the extra space or if that's how it's meant to be. I'm sort of glad it's just me in this apartment though. I think the last few days in the compound and a few times with my sister before I met the other Defenders were the only times I've really shared space like that.

People on the internet talk about movies and tv shows a lot. What's most important to watch if I want to understand them? I got some notebooks for different things I'm figuring out and the one about normal people isn't going very well.

[Shuri]
Does your brother always have a human face?

When I told my husband I think we should get away for a vacation, I thinking more interstate rather than inter-dimensional. But this works too.

Lois Lane. Daily Planet. Nice to meet you all, albeit virtually.

Thanks for the welcome email, Stark. Great little place you have here.

Okay. So we're refugees now. We're getting to move into the new place, if we want to.

Is there anything being done to make sure we can find employment, if we want? I really appreciate everything that's been done for us, but I wouldn't mind working just to keep myself busy.

Maybe I shouldn't have waited so long to try this, but is there anybody here who knows the Doctor? Tall nutter in a suit and trainers, crazy hair, not an Earthling, travels in a big blue box that sounds like its been smoking since childhood.

Also, if there's any way to contact him, he'd probably be able to help with the current problems. Probably solve all of it before the day is done.

Also, if I'm a Wakandan now, when do I get to see the place?

Hopefully you're not sick of hearing from me yet. I got a couple of things.

1) Since everyone's papered now I've seen some mentions of going into the city. For a lot of people that's not a big deal at all and you can skip to the next thing. For people who aren't familiar with New York, or large cities in this point in time, or large cities in general, Sharon Carter and I are available to play tour guide and show you how things work. (Disclaimer: I'm pretty good at navigating places I don't know well and I can show you ways of finding things, but I've really only visited New York before so if you've already got the logistics down and just want specific local information I'm not going to be the best person for that.)

2) I'm going to keep doing movies around 7:30pm nightly. Let me know if you have requests, otherwise it's dealer's choice.

3) The games days will be going forward on Wednesday afternoons, and depending how they go might increase to twice a week. We'll see.

Let me know if you need anything.

So I'm utterly new to this whole "aliens", "superheroes", "space" world, but can someone please explain Wakanda to me?

I'm weighing my options on staying there for a bit.

I know it's a country. I've done my research there. But what is their interest here? No offense to His Majesty or anyone else. I'm merely curious.

Please pardon my absence over the last few days, if you were looking for me. I was able to find some intel that I think might be of use, though the pickings are slim out there. A lot of my sources have gone quiet. Anyway, I've forwarded what I've found on to Stark.

That's taken care of, and I feel like I need to let off a little steam. There's a lap pool on the grounds, right?

I'd like to take a moment to introduce myself. My name is Ahsoka Tano, and it's my understanding that most beings from Earth have not seen anyone like me. By that, I mean my species. I'm a Torgruta I'm from another galaxy, one that's seen its fair share of tyranny and despots. I'm what some might call a Jedi. I grew up in the Jedi Temple, and then when I was fourteen, I became the padawan learner to a Jedi Knight, and I was commander of the Galactic Republic's 501st battalion during the Clone Wars. After that, our galaxy was ruled by a Sith Lord name Darth Sidious who squeezed the people to the point that some rebelled. I understand that some of you may have met Leia Organa. Bail Organa, her father, was one of my closest friends and helped me to establish the Rebel Alliance.

I can fight. I have tactical skill. I'm good (not expert) at mechanics and engineering. If you need help, please, simply say so and you will have it.

It sure is strange being on this Earth, with no apparent reason for being drawn here. I must say, I am not entirely comfortable being grounded. While I understand your Accords, I hope you can understand how difficult it is hearing millions of voices calling for help, knowing you can help them, but not being allowed to. As such, I had imposed a kind of self isolation so as not to impart my bad mood upon anyone else.

I think now I am ready to be social. So, hello, my name is Clark, I was raised in Kansas but not born there. My original world is gone. I'm a reporter, but also know my way around a farm. Yesterday was the first birthday I've spent away from family in a long time. I can't really count my space voyages as I was mostly asleep for those. I have many natural abilities, which you would probably label unnatural, but I assure you that I am in full control of them.

Trans-dimensional portals, that's brilliant! The COLT-5000 will never find me here Much more convenient than a ship, though they do have a lot less space for cargo. All I've got now is my time hopper, and that looks like it's completely blown out. Can't say for sure that was the portal though. It's not like I've ever built one before and it was scrap parts. Still. Got me out of the shipyard, and now I'm on Earth! My dad loves this place, I really thought it would take me a lot longer to find it. Are we sure we can't leave the property? It's only I want to see everything.

I'm DYING. I need to get OUT. I need pizza, coffee, and some clothes.

Who's with me?

Okay. I think I understand what's going on. At least, I understand it as much as I'm going to.

My name is Sally Sparrow. Barbara explained to me what's happening, but I'm afraid I'm not sure why I'm here. I don't have superpowers, I'm not from the future. I'm actually from the past.

No one else was touched by an angel, were they? Just thought I'd ask.

Anyway, hello! Let me know if there's anything I can do to help around here. I think keeping busy is my best option right now.
