Multiverse of Madness

You all expressed an interest in the trip to Kamar-Taj. We will travel in the Commodore. It will get us to Nepal in under an hour and will serve as our accommodation in case we cannot stay in Kamar-Taj directly.

Now I think we should carefully prepare ourselves for the trip. I would like to invite everyone who is coming along to share their knowledge and expertise. We will need it.

Our main aim will be to find the scrolls that will banish the demon if these exist. However, it would be foolish to stop there if you ask me. Kamar-Taj has been the custodian of the time stone for quite a few centuries. There is likely to be valuable information to be found there about the stones and in addition, it would be wise to see if they harbour information about whatever is happening with these mirrors too. Whatever these strange things are that others have mentioned, I would rather for them to stay on the other side of these mirrors.

Buckle in, folks, this is going to be a long one. I'll try to tl;dr where I can.

( GAME PLOT )

If you have questions, I'll do my best to answer, but a lot of this is in technical-ese and I didn't take that elective in high school. Sorry! (not sorry)

With great relief, the house is no longer a Haunted Gingerdead House. However, it is already starting to self decorate for Halloween. Stiles, this is your chance to get in there and make your own additions to the decorating.

The Halloween party in the summer didn't work out, but now it would be fun to actually plan for Halloween (and my birthday). Especially since I'm alive - again -...

The mushrooms in my yard are attracting small fairies. I thought they were fireflies. But fireflies aren't sassy as far as I'm aware.

If I never see another talking squirrel, it'll be too soon.

So I thought I woke up to fresh baking this morning... nope. It was the house. It's Gingerbread now.

All of this is starting to give me Seelie Court flashbacks, and I'm not having a good time.

Look, I'm all about the whimsy, but I can't be the only one a little weirded out by our new fairy friends...

I apologize for the early morning wakeup call, if it bothered you.

[OOC: Lydia managed to keep it together for most of the night. In the early, early morning, there was a banshee scream she couldn't hold back anymore. Supernatural folk were like to have heard it, especially if they were anywhere near the Lighthouse. She was back to work soon after.]

[Private to Klaus]
I can't stay here. Can I take you up on that offer to get away?

It seems that some of the Fourth of July celebrations have already begun. The fireworks at night are spooking my dog.

I woke up this morning, and Jest was gone.

We've had another incident in the woods between New Asgard and the Facility.

No one was gravely injured, and we're not restricting movement in the area but please take this as a strong advisement not to travel on your own until we know more.

More updates will be provided as they become available.

I certainly need more practice in artistry. While I can make delightful recipes, my skill with a piping bag and paintbrush needs improvement. I saw this wonderful recipe online (which is absolutely the most amazing tool when it comes to gathering new ideas for treats for my shop)... but when I attempted, they came out...

Well, I'm not sure I can put them up for sale without deep embarrassment.

The flavors are nice, though. So if you're interested in a free cookie, swing by. So long as you promise to be kind about my art skills.

In lieu of the pitiable lack of the planned beach soiree—and my condolences to those affected by the latest of these such abductions—and at great personal risk as I at long last put myself physically near the village of New Asgard, I plan to hold a performance of my greatest hits and a few new ones on the waterfront. Bring your blankets. Bring your tankards. Bring your smiling faces.

My dulcet tones will commence two hours before sunset today!

I came home from work to find a pile of things that Chessie decided to pilfer out of boredom.

Please let me know where I can return the following:

A pair of cat earrings
A bottle of bourbon
A jean jacket with a patch on the elbow
Some high end eye makeup
A pair of strappy red pumps.

I really do like my job as a bartender.

I'm just questioning the young man who garnished his G&T with yellow Peeps.

Our home My house is established in New Asgard. Eliot will have somewhere to go if when he comes home is brought back through the Red Portal. Я, конечно, надеялся, что он уже вернется ко мне.

If I am needed, please sign me up for additional Security shifts. I find myself in want of something to keep myself occupied.

Look, all I'm saying is: have you noticed that any time anyone tries to rally us magical types, the portal whisks them away?

'Cause it's a pattern. ijs

Fucking hell.

I'm supposed to be heading to Hell. What about Darlington? He needs us to rescue his soul.

Not being pulled into this dimension.

Let's start with the first question. What's the fucking ghost situation?

[Filtered to magic users]

I was hopin' to meet some other magic users in town, as a New Orleans witch.

Though I very much appreciate the leadership that Sally's employees have shown in keeping her beloved bakery running in her absence, I miss Cath. Sally's isn't the same without her. Can we figure this whole red portal thing out now?

I cannot be separated from my realm again. It has only begun to recover from my extended absence. The consequences are dire if I do not return. The world will suffer as it did when Burgess imprisoned me.

Does no one know of a way to escape this place? My sand has yet to replenish. What magic is this that is capable of limiting my abilities?

These red portals seem to be picking up. Cath and Jest got caught in one. How many people have disappeared now? And have any returned?


[Hargreeves + Cisco]
Are you all okay?

Somebody looked incredibly handsome this morning, so I had to take a picture!

Hope he brightens his human’s day, and everyone else’s too!

( cut for pic )

Oh. This is not ...Russeau's.

Or New Orleans.

Which I've already been told by security, but I felt it bared repeating.

Hello?

I do not like the sound of these Red Portals, though I refuse to hide at home. I have to go out, and have to take Fannie out for her exercise.

I am beside myself over the disappearance of Clint.

[Eliot]
Our realtor says that our offer has been accepted. The house will be ours.

[Natasha]
Please tell me you are all right.

So, I'd say "I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore," but I've always sympathized with the Wicked Witch more than Dorothy.

Also, I'm not from Kansas.

So, hello! I'm Sabrina. The really cute portal guard told me that I was here before, and I left my house behind. Anyone want to help me out finding it? And is my bedroom still free?

I am looking for new places to take Fanny to exercise. Our dog park is too muddy this time of year. It is getting tiresome to wash her every day after taking her out.

[Private to Eliot]
You should come over and trim the tree with me. I have mulled wine.

[Private to Natasha]
I could use a cup of coffee and sister time.

I just had the most bizarre experience when I was walking back to the Consulate a few minutes ago.

An older woman with a tiny dog stopped me on the sidewalk, thanked me for being—and I quote—"a very attractive young man", and handed me a $100 bill.

I know I'm a little removed from humanity, but does this happen often?

Went to find some snow.

Found a cat. They’re following me.

[Magic Types]

I did some initial investigation into the strange atmosphere in the garage and didn’t find anything physical. But now with all these ghost sightings I’m looking at the mystical. Have any of you ever seen things like this before. Or know how we’d track the cause? With All Hallows coming up, and the veil between here and beyond at its weakest, should we prepare for more happenings?

Guess I have too many ghosts in my past that they're arguing over who's going to visit me first. Haven't had a single spook or apparition haunt me yet. Bit disappointed, really.

October really is the best time of year. New True Crime podcasts every day this month. Content galore! And I may have found a variety of halloween flavored coffees to last well into next year.

I do hope everyone is having fun with this season. Could someone explain the custom of Halloween to me?

[Padmé]
Weeks ago, I saw something. A vision. I don't know how to explain what I saw without it being frightening, but I don't know if it's true. I think Leia was there. However, she was your age.

[Poe]
I need you to answer a question for me about my demise.

[Leia]
Whenever you wake up, I'm introducing you to waffles.

School is not as hard as I thought it would be. (Look Mom, I'm attending again. Be proud.) I kind of miss band. But the time I would have if I was in band is being used for other stuff.

I am studying what's happened for the last 30 or so years. SO MUCH has happened. I think my brain might melt. Is that a thing that happens here?

[Scoops Troop]

Steve. 911. There are so many cute girls here. I can barely function. Can we look at homeschooling? Please?

I had a long, peculiar flash of... memory? This morning as I was pouring a cup of coffee for a customer. I must have gone blank, because the next thing I knew I was burning my hand on the coffee as it spilled over the edge of the cup.

I'm afraid I was not very nice to the girl who came to my kingdom. Seeing Cheshire again was a little awful, after everything. And the King ...I forgot how miserable I was in that world. And how glad I am to be in this one. I must not take it for granted.

[OOC: The text is send rather late at night]

I have decided to reach out because a thought does not leave my mind. Three infinity stones are missing from this universe. Time. Space. Mind. The first two vanished. The latter was destroyed. First, time decides it seeks freedom from its usual constraints. Then people become displaced into a different time and space among our universe. Or send to a different one similar to ours. Coincidence? I think not. Are the two missing stones not actually missing but someone is wielding them? Or is their absence making this world unstable? I do not know. Both options are worrisome. While nothing has led to tragedy yet, I do not dare to rely on it remaining that way.

Does anyone of you have more wisdom to share on the matter?

This is a (probably long overdue) PSA:

I'm a vampire.

Hello Harry, I hope you are well. Many things seem to have shifted in the life of the magic users here since we have last spoken. Miss Spellman's disappearance was certainly a tragic one. My calendar, however, reveals some free time. Maybe we could pick up our practice sessions again. Loki

Why didn't anyone tell me that they sell the marshmallows from Lucky Charms by themselves, without the gross cereal part?!

A Black VW convertible just appeared in the garage. One second there was an empty space in the lot, the next a Bug. Anyone own one of them back in your own world?

There was some weird stuff in the glove box and trunk.

Also… a hover bike? Which probably should be in the hangar.

I have concluded that there is not enough magic in the world to get spilled simple syrup off the bottom of one's shoes. Or the club floor. Or every piece of floor where one has walked since said spill.

So that's how my weekend went. How was yours?

( Friends )
( Quentin )
( Margo )

Sam isn’t here.

We were together in Middle Earth, but he hasn’t come back.

And he missed his birthday.

[Eliot W]

When he does get his ass back in this reality can I hire Threshold for the party?

[Steve]

You and Derek okay? Did you get to your honeymoon? When Sam gets back, we’re still throwing him a 40th right? I’m asking about taking over Threshold for it.

[Clint and Dick]

Think we could fit the two of you in a giant cake? Failing that maybe a circus act for the birthday boy?

Please be particularly careful if you're touching the plants that have been growing.

It seems that the thorns have some kind of anesthetizing effect that we don't quite understand yet. One of our number, Jemma, was pricked by one and has been unconscious since the incident.

For those that know her, she is currently under observation and we are conducting tests to work out what's going on with her.

Again, please be careful and if you suspect someone has been effected, let us know.

Dear Subconscious:

I have atoned for the lives I took during my two stints with the League of Assassins. Why are you giving me non-stop nightmares again? It's been years since I've been plagued with these dreams.

No Love,
Me

It seems I'm not alone though. Did someone cast a spell that wonky or something?

I've got a dog now.

And apparently he talks, so that's a thing.
