[CADUCEUS CLAY + ALICE QUINN]

You're my plan B. What do you need to possess or move anyone that dies or refuses to tag their own?

[LOKI (EACH FILTERED SEPARATELY)]

I need help finding mine. Can't tell if she's avoiding me, but locator spell isn't working.

[good derleth network - filtered to friends & the timeline research crew, whoever is on it]

Alright, so just as a heads up - Loki met my other self, who was here in my office space, and he's. Uh. He's literally a walking infinity stone because he apparently made himself a Tessaract, bonded with the space stone, and thus has the powers of the stone.

For those who don't know what an infinity stone is, they're magical rocks created when the Big Bang happened - there are six and each is tied to a different aspect of the universe (time, space, reality, etc). I'm not sure how he manages to exist as one without burning up but either he's stronger than I thought or Derleth is somehow also sustaining him. Also probably suppressing the effect/the powers somehow too. But no doubt A. he needs help and B. that research lab over there must be chock-full of good stuff.

I'm going to head over to check it out and see what I can gather for the sake of our research but wanted to let you all know first.

[private message to just wanda]

Can you give me some tips or advice on the whole 'there's an infinity stone in me' kinda thing?

My other self took the badge, and is wearing it.

He was so trusting, and nice, he didn't suspect anything.

I feel just awful.

So given everything that's happened I guess I should share what I know about the network.

• Months ago, the first time we visited an alternate timeline, I learned the version of me there basically created the network. I could mention Tilly but let's keep this short and sweet. I was ambitious, and I had a few potential government contracts lined up for an unhackable network.
  
  
• In order to make the network unhackable, I laced magic in the coding. I don't remember the spell, I can remember some details about the book, but that book isn't here. To test it, I opened it up as a beta to Derleth students and faculty. I challenged people to try to hack it, try to break into other people's messages, my messages, whatever.
  
  
• It worked. But I think the magic she/I used is also what's bringing us here, why the same people show back up again even when they disappear. If you're here, a version of you was also on that Derleth and signed up for the beta. Michael appeared to confirm this last week.

So now you know. You want a piece of me, I'm still in the clinic.


[NATASHA]

If I didn't tell, Rose was going to. Thought it would be better coming from me. Sorry. They deserve to know anyway.

Oh, come the fuck on. Did someone piss off the White Witch from Narnia or something?

By the way, El, I had to dig that paper airplane of yours out of a tits high snowdrift. You better have a drink and something warm for me.

PRIVATE TO MOBIUS M. MOBIUS

I would have preferred our first meeting be a little more dignified from my end. I apologize for my state last night and hope you will not hold my inebriations against me. I usually do not drink to that point.

Eliot has been suggesting we speak. Would you be interested in meeting in the coming days?

[ALICE QUINN]

Talk to me? Or at least drink with me.

[CARVER]

Don't suppose you'd be up for body swapping this week? On a slightly more serious note, I apologize for dragging you into any of my drama yesterday. I would have preferred something shirtless with slightly less actual threats of violence.

[MARGO, MARGO + ALICE]

I'm going to need someone to get me decent clothing I can been seen in public with. Please go take a look at Peaslee and see if there's anything there? This is dire.

This whole feeling post wake up is the worst. Even sleeping didn't make me feel less like death warmed over. This is like the flu intensified.

What do we know about what's going on? Alice wrote a lot and I had to go back and read it after sleeping. But hi. I'm Quentin and I miss my hair.

What in the fucking fuck is happening right now? Cleo, why??

( Letter to Quentin Coldwater )

Later

PRIVATE TO JULIA WICKER

He's awake. You coming with me?

MAGICIANS UNIVERSE

This week has obviously been more chaotic than normal with new arrivals. How's everyone doing?

Also... this is a weird request-slash-idea, but I'd kind of like it if all of us could get together and hang out for an evening while we can. Fire pit on the Green tonight, maybe?

So, yeah, I get what redhead was saying there, but I know that spell with the paper airplane, and I know some of ya'll ended up here. So, who's around from Brakebills?

This is Penny, original flavor, seemingly on a leave of absence from the Library. Sup?

PRIVATE TO QUENTIN COLDWATER

What are your thoughts on the Hawaii discussion?

I've got five of these fuckers in bottles. Where are we keeping them?

[MAGICIANS + FEN]

Check in. Everyone good?

Meet in the cafeteria in 15 minutes. We're going to try and put up a ward to help with supply runs and food prep for the week to keep people from having to leave their rooms.

Classes are cancelled this week. Why did I even bother...

Children, please stay in your rooms. Anyone else that would prefer to stay in your rooms, no judgement. Comment with your room numbers and what you'll need to stay in for the week. As far as we know, personal rooms are still safe.

Anyone who'd like to make supply runs? At least until we can get this ghost situation under control?

I HAVE SOMETHING FOR THIS
I AM A GHOSTBUSTER

There's some sort of field around this island that's preventing me from opening portals to get us off this island.

I'd almost think that something wanted us here.

FILTER TO THE MAGICIANS

Is everyone aboard the ship? [..] This is my general announcement that I am here.

( Read more... )

You guys, the party was super fun! I think if we're all gonna be stuck here for a while we should try and get to know each other better. I was thinking a movie night! I read about it once in a holo-novel

I think I found a DVD player and the disc of something called Moulin Rouge. I'm gonna set it up in the common room on the fourth floor of the west wing in Butler Hall.

Isn't popcorn traditional for this situation? Can someone teach me how to make it?

[FILTER: ELIOT, ALICE, RON + MORRIGAN]

Okay, so how ready are we to try potentially very bad ideas?

[FILTER: TONY STARK]

What's going on with you?

I guess we have some new people here. I've been here for about a month now, along with Rick and Clint, so....

AMA, I guess. I can't promise I'll have any answers.

This place was a part of a university called Derleth. I've never heard of it, I don't think it's from my world. Here is a shitty map I drew on my phone for you, so no judging.

( Julia's shitty map and key under the cut tag. )

I don't suppose anyone brought any alcohol with them from the last place we were at? Because I could use a drink. Also just an FYI, if you try to escape this place by being as far away from it as you humanly can be when the seven days changes over, that doesn't work. Still wake up in your assigned bed at the start of the new week.

My dearest friend,

Welcome to Derleth.

I am so sorry I could not be there to greet you myself, but I trust you'll find your way around soon enough. Most of the students have not yet arrived for the new semester and so I've arranged for [your?] lodging on campus. You'll find a key in your pocket. Just like old times, eh?

Should the experiment go as planned, for one week we will be able to displace time and space itself. I believe with my calculations we will be able to control the effects and no one shall be the wiser. To anyone not directly involved it will be imperceptible.

Feel free to wander the campus in the meantime. We'll begin the experiment at [muffled] Hall, on Thursday, precisely at midnight.

We'll show them, won't we?
