( But we all have parts of ourselves we don’t particularly like. At least if you knew, you’d get the option to make peace with whatever’s there. )

I’ve really enjoyed what Derleth has provided us with this time. It’s been nice just wandering around a city and not having to worry about my life or others lives being threatened.

Oh, also. Hey, Rocket, I managed to secure a car like we discussed. It’s yours whenever you want! It’s a bit of a beater but it drives all the same, and the heat works. Which I think is always a bit of a bonus.

[PRIVATE: LOKI]

I was thinking about venturing outside of the city. Might try to find somewhere with water, jet skis, and some good drinks if you want to come along. Your alligator friend might enjoy the sand as well.

Question of the day: what is the best candy?

And, for those of you who prefer to dwell on the opposite question: what is the worst candy?

I'm trying to decide what to stock up on before we're relegated to the wastelands once more.

[FILTERED TO FANDRAL]

Because I am a trickster of my word, I have reservations for tomorrow for dinner. You do know how to dress appropriately for Midgardian fine dining, aye? If not we'll sort it out. I have fistfuls of money that I liberated from someone distinctly awful.

MOBIUS:

Are you safe?

LOKI:

I

Are you

I know you're not okay, but if you need me, I'm here.

IKOL:

You haven't done anything stupid yet, have you?

( ... )

I must admit, it has taken me more than a few days to adjust to finding myself here, which I am certain is a common thread among most everyone that has arrived, yes?

Anyways, I am finding myself a bit restless at the moment. Suggestions of how to pass the time? I have seen some inquire about sparring partners, which I would be interested in, though I'm not sure I am equipped to spar with anyone that doesn't have some sort of advanced strength.

[Bucky Barnes]

I was very sorry to see that your Steve left so soon after my arrival. How are you?

I can't believe that I've sunk this low, but

I have to

How do you make friends? Is there some sort of trick to it? A magic word or phrase? To have you have to bring something to the table to trade with? I forgot how to It was never important and I don't trust anyo

I think my favorite part of Derleth so far is that the criteria for committing a party foul is so selectively narrow that I braced for the worst, and, to date, the worst has been Doc Strange trying to give us all a lesson on shipping nomenclature. No offense, DS. I know you tried.

So, that's it, then? I'm finally in a place where the free passes are given without question?

Where does Derleth come up with these....situations?

[Darcy Lewis]

This...it wasn't me. I swear it.

Alright so...magic is on the fritz apparently. Time to improvise. Who wants to wrangle up some aliens and lock them in a basement?

PEOPLE OF DUNWICH!
Fear not...! Cooperation will likely be met with mercy. Lay down your weapons and submit yourselves to the Supreme One, and all will be well. This is the promise we Lokians make you.

To those who decide to fight on... we have a death ray. It will hurt.

Then, it will bore a hole straight through you.

Then, you will die. Death Ray. Consider your options, Dunwich. Your planet will fall.

JIMMY BARNES:

Do you handle the post for the Mayor's office?

MAYOR LAUFEYSON:

After some research, whoever printed these has their own lab. None of the places in town recalled any of these photos, and you're a high profile person. I tracked the paper used to a place two towns over. The name was John Smith, clearly a fake.

I have a few questions about this party you're photographed at.

OFFICER MOBY:

Hey Moby, you got a minute?

Boy, do I have a treat for everyone over at the Cinema this week. Starting tomorrow, we'll be running return showings of Creature from the Black Lagoon and Roman Holiday. We'll be alternating them through the week with Creature from the Black Lagoon starting tomorrow and Roman Holiday the day after.

And for the youngsters? We've managed to get our hands on Lady and the Tramp, which we'll be playing as our matinee all week.

I hope to see everyone's smiling faces at the movies this week!

FILTER TO KADY TALBOT

What do you say to us having the Waugh's over later this week? I need to make up for our last bridge night when Eliot wiped the floor with me.

FILTER TO ELIOT WAUGH, REY WAUGH & KADY TALBOT

Hello, good cousins!

How do you feel to dinner and bridge Thursday night? Eliot, I've got a new bottle of brandy for you to try.

If anyone is needing a fill up today, gas has dipped back down to below 30 cents a gallon! Yes, you absolutely read that right. Swing by the petrol station and I'll get you all taken care of!

[NATASHA ROGERS]

Seeing you yesterday was real nice, ma'am, and thank you kindly for the generous tip you left me.

Is there anything I can offer to show my gratitude?

[ELIOT WAUGH]

If you've got some time to spare, I'd really like to see you again soon.

School's back in session, and I find myself looking for an daytime worker. Jefferson went back to college out of state, and I need someone else who can handle big animals and farm equipment. Ronan's a good kid, but I do need someone to fill dad's shoes. He can't quite stand up so much anymore

If you hear anyone looking for work, will you send them my way, please?

Alina, Ronan — I've got a basket of fruit for you to take home to your folks.

She's a beauty, isn't she?

And so is my wife.

A reminder that my office will be closed next week. My secretary will be taking appointments before and after my return.

Mighty fine celebration you lot threw last night. Got to say? Truly made a man feel welcome in his first hours even if that wasn't the intent.

My friend's been kind enough to show me how to utilize this communication device. Fascinating what the future holds for mankind, I'll admit.

All that being said, if you all are accustomed to the comings and goings of folk here, is there a list of some sort for alerting people when folks show? If they are looking for someone in specific, I mean? Victor's already gone and told me a woman by the name of Brona Croft isn't present but if'n she shows up? I'd appreciate someone letting her know of my presence as soon as possible.

Thank you,
E. Chandler

It seems I somehow missed out on karaoke.

How was it?

Hi. Hello. Not to detract from everyone's fascination over the ominous (and possibly nightmare-filled) monolith, but I did have a quick PSA to make.

If you see a small terrier-like creature running about, spewing fire, and threatening death upon everyone and everything, please do not mind him (but do please mind your fingers because he can be nippy). He's mine, not a herald of demise as he may try to convince you of.

Thank you! Carry on.

Mobius, someone's told me you're here. And you're not allowed to hide from me.

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?
