ic notes and random gab

Halloween is quickly approaching.

Which you all know, since it's basically all we're talking about. I like that, by the way. It's real festive. I can get behind that kinda thing. We all like something we can get behind.

Speaking of which.

Candy. Everyone agrees that after hard liquor, candy is the most important part of Halloween right? Right. So don't skimp out this year and live the rest of the year in shame.

Buy it from me, over at Just Desserts [location added].

I've got what you want.

And the best candy, too.

It is my duty to inform you that Peggy Carter sustained critical injuries as a result of the explosion earlier today. I was able to pull her out of the rubble, and tend to her injuries as best as I could before ensuring that she received proper medical attention.

Everyone:

The fellow at the Welcome Center said that I should introduce myself to practically everyone by using this little box. It is beyond peculiar. It is impossible to be acquainted with everyone.

My name is Arcturus Black, and I am the son of Licorus Black, and if you are unfamiliar with him because you are from abroad or the future or because you are a muggle, he is one of the most powerful wizards in Britain. I expect he will devise a spell to bring me home before too long. In the meantime, though, I suppose it is best to try to be cheerful. Making a fuss over being away from home never helped anyone.

I had a carriage ride yesterday and that was splendid. I had never tried it before because my father said he didn't see the sense in children taking carriages. What else ought I to do here? I'm not interested in any of that modern rubbish and I'm not going near any muggle machines, but I like card games, and magical amusements.

Also if there are any wizards reading this I would especially like to speak with you.

As we bid a fond farewell to my former colleagues, Loki and Micheal Bluth, we look forward to the working along side whomever is selected to as new Council members in their stead. We ought to know for certain a week from Tuesday.

Has anyone seen Steve Trevor? We were due to meet for lunch and he did not appear. It is odd for him to do so.

Filtered to anyone who responded to this post about sparring

Good morning,

Thanks to a gentleman named Sephiroth I have discovered a clearing in Everdale that is suitable to spar in. If anyone would like to meet regularly, I am thinking of at least once a week?

I flew into town this afternoon and found the most delightful little tea-house. It's not quite Asphodel's, but it'll do. I really ought to make more of an effort, it's simply too isolating when one doesn't have family around, otherwise. This place does seem quite safe.

Do people really find hope here, in this place? Those of you that have been here longer, is it really everything you wanted it to be, no sneaking, lingering regrets at the back of your minds? Or is this just another lie to cling to as you try to tell yourself that your choices were the right ones? That there's nothing else you could have done, that it's all worth it in the end?

Perhaps I'm putting too much thought into it. After all, it isn't as though we can simply leave now can we?

Does anyone know how to spar? Or is there a place where I can partake in physical fitness?

It would seem there have been several new arrivals to Preya as of late. I offer you my greetings. My name is Spock, and I am one of the many professors at the Abacus Institute. We are here to ensure you have the tools necessary to establish your new life.

For those who are not or are only partially human, as I am, you are always welcome to seek my company. I have found such bonds to be essential in my own transition, and I extend the same offer to you.

With that said, I am also in need of assistance. Are there any experts on quantum realities? Direct experience with time manipulation in any capacity would be most helpful. You will be compensated should you feel comfortable sharing your knowledge.

[ Yeah, video post. What, you didn't think Bruce Wayne could do it?

Anyway, he's sitting in his office wearing a suit, giving a little two-fingered salute towards the webcam. A nice thing to note is that the video is totally lossless, which is incredible for web-based live video chat, but such are the fanciful measures WayneTech has accomplished. ]

Hey. For those of you unaware--and, yeah, actually, I've never done one of these on-line things before, have I? But I'm Bruce Wayne, CEO of WayneTech, an up and coming business based in Ravenmoore. It's a pleasure to virtually meet you.

WayneTech's priority is making technology to benefit the general public-- [ so he gestures with spread hands towards the camera ] --so I thought, you know, why not get to know you guys?

That being said, there's a little chatbox down there, right? [ Leaning back into his seat, Bruce's head cocks to the side, all smooth and effortless. ] Tell me about yourself. What do you love about Preya? What do you hate?

And, [ a grin ] what're your grievances with tech these days?

Can't wait to read your responses. Wayne, out. [ And so the transmission ends. ]

As Councilman of Ravenmoore, I should like to announce that any stories of monsters creeping through the sewers of the city are complete and utter nonsense. I don't know how this rumor began, but there is absolutely no evidence whatsoever to substantiate these claims.

Therefore, anybody caught attempting to go into the sewers to slay said imaginary monsters shall be arrested for trespassing on city property, your weapons confiscated, and heavily fined. This is especially true for any sword swinging yokels from Everdale entering the city on some fool's errand, causing a disturbance while pretending to be in some live action video game.

Hi. I'm Steve.

Who knows how to use a computer?

Hey there, new customers and friends! Welcome! The name's Bill, and I noticed we've got a whole lotta newbies here, so I thought it was an ideal time for me to advertise my services!

Any of you new guys in need of a quick buck? Any of you old hats finding your funds are running out? Come on down to my establishment! I can make you a great deal on pretty much anything you're looking to pawn! Magical goods? Even better, you'll have cash in your hands faster than you can make the offer! I'll make you the deal of a lifetime. We can talk terms and conditions when you come by, but I promise you, the upfront cash is more than worth the interest.

Remember the name! It's Cipher's HC Peddle and Pawn, and it's right down the street from the Ravenmoore Mall! Just look for the sign with the eye, you can't miss it!

Can get a little crazy when you have new people showing up and helping where it's needed, the result of that was me spacing on being apart of the whole welcome wagon.

For anyone I haven't had the chance of meeting, I'm Bobbi Morse, and I'm a detective around here. If you need anything, I'm located around Summerbridge, but I tend to jump around to different places so reach out if you need anything. I swear I don't bite.

Hello everyone! Just here to introduce myself. I'm Steve Rogers. And before you ask... no. I'm not Captain America any more. Just plain old Steve. I had a disagreement with a few people and, as Bucky can tell you, I'm a little stubborn. Bucky tells me there's a few people out there that I might know, but if you don't want to catch up, I can certainly understand. You're here for a reason.

So long story short (because it's a boring one and I don't want to take up your valuable time) I'm here, and I'm looking for a job. Can't live off Buck forever. Problem is, I'm only good at a few things that likely aren't needed here. I'm not great with technology (but I'm getting better), but I'm strong and... well that's kind of depressing. That's my only skill. But I work hard and I'm not too proud to do anything necessary... well, up to a point!

Anyway, hello.
