ic notes and random gab

I decided to pay for the music streaming service for my phone. It might be Peter's influence, but I've been spending a lot more time listening to music here than ever before. Especially while I am out jogging or training.

Let me know if you have any suggestions. It feels like there's a whole universe of music out there for me to learn.

I know the 90's aren't well known for their great music, but you've all got to admit that practically everything that came out then was really catchy. Better yet, some of it was just... good.

Like miss me with that shit, this song is amazing.
(Did I use that phrase right?)

Also, okay, Guardians. Whose turn is it on the dishes roster? Because I think our kitchen is going to hell and it's not my turn.

I know this is probably a long shot but does anybody remember Latvarian papanași? Or really any Latvarian food. Bless them for their willingness to mix cheese with pastry and then cover it in sweet things. 10/10 worth sitting through a Doom monologue for.

It's weird the things you miss from home, you know? It's never what you expect.

It was officially the first day of spring yesterday. Isn't that wild? There was a blizzard just a few weeks ago.

So, to celebrate the oncoming warmer weather and the positive sun vibes, I've made a little playlist. It's been a while!

Hozier -- Almost (Sweet Music)
Bill Withers -- Lovely Day
The Japanese House -- You Seemed So Happy
Grover Washington -- Just the Two of Us
Regina Spektor -- Us

Dear Groot,

I have considered your situation, and feel you have learned your lesson probably and am formally pardoning you from your lengthy punishment. You are free to romp and roam to your heart's content. No more stealing my ship. And also you're still working at the shop on Saturday.

Uh, hey. I'm Beau. I don't really know what to say here because this feels a bit like getting up in the middle of everyone and trying to tell someone why you're special and that's a bunch of bullshit.

So yeah. Hey or whatever.

Definitely didn't miss blizzards in space, amongst other things.

I bought a shitton of blankets, heat packs and food supplies if anybody doesn't have the money for them.

[Spock]

Are you gonna be okay? You should probably come over. I know Vulcans don't exactly deal well with incredibly low temperatures and it's going to be freezing.

Is there like... an invisible wall surrounding this place? Because I'm pretty sure I ran into it and that's totally not cool, you know? They should warn people.

I have been told that this is a place to socialize and meet people.

So I'm posting.

Hahaha! I find this present location highly amusing! There are persons here who construct effigies out of frozen water! How hideous and primitive!

My name is Drax the Destroyer, and I am on a quest to kill Thanos. I do not believe he is here for there does not seem to be anyone that has, or has been disintegrating in this place.

However as Thanos does not seem to be here, I shall be in need of amassing a crew in order to hunt down the scoundrel and vanquish him accordingly. Henceforth in the meantime I shall require the location of a place in which to place alcohol into my body where I shall evacuate it at a later proceeding.

I seem to have already gathered somebody along in my quest, a hideous small furry monster that the Earthers I believe refer to as a 'Furbie'. I do not see any difference between it and that disgusting garbage monster that I knew as Rocket.

Needless to say this 'Furbie' is much less pathetic than Quill. Imagine, starting a dance-off to attempt to save the universe! Hahahaha!

Alright I'm up. School's in, I'm teaching again, so you'll probably see me at the Institute. For those that are new this year that might not be familiar with me, I'm Dr. Bruce Banner. Yes, that-- I'm teaching science, chemistry, physics, graphic engineering, but I fill in when various people are sick. I'm not really that strict, but if I catch you cheating on an exam I promise the other guy won't smash y-- NO I CAN'T EVEN JOKE ABOUT THAT WHAT I'm more the talk it out kinda guy than the stick you in detention for the rest of your life kind.

So if you need any help or whatever, let me know. We all had to start somewhere in life, and at some point we needed someone to give us the right direction to go.

I don't know what the go is with field trips here but I'd probably teach some outdoor classes on a nice day too, I don't want to seem too stuffy. With all my PhDs and stuff.

Shit. This is awkward. Yeah, yeah, I'm rambling again, I know.

Well, that's that. Man, that was refreshing. I don't think I've ever felt so relaxed. First time in my life I feel great. Well, mostly. Didn't even cause that much property damage. Let me know if the big guy smashed something valuable?

RAMBLING AGAIN. I know. I know.

[Tony]

Hey, are you doing the phone call home thing? Also I grabbed pizza. Extra pepperoni for you, right? Come over and join me. Don't mind the fish, she's babysitting me.

Oh, it's winter. That's weird.

So.
Uh.

Hey, Preya. Howzit going? Who missed me?

...If anybody could keep an eye out for a small mole-like creature with an affinity for jewels, it would be much appreciated.

I'm Fenrir.

I'm a Wolf. Very big. Giant. People see me. They try to shoot me. Don't. I won't eat you.

Are there gods here? Norse? Computers? Cars? I hate Cars

So, it's a new year.

If anybody's interested, I'm working on reopening Stark Towers proper - there's going to be some positions available, mostly for researchers and analysts to understand exactly what's going on in Preya. I found some research from the last me who was here about the disappearances and I intend to try and continue it without the sue of...tracking chips, which has been unanimously agreed as creepy. There might be an optional carryable version in the future, but either way, a chip can be removed. It's not really a reliable solution of finding out where people go when they vanish.

Other than that, I'm both open to suggestions and things to stick my brain into.

[Bruce]

How are you settling in here, anyway? I don't really get along well with New Year celebrations. Doesn't seem like there's a lot to celebrate lately when being alive isn't all that preferable.

I've found this incredibly hard to believe since I woke up with it on my bed, but I was apparently gifted the egg of a Hippogriff for this past Christmas.

( Image under cut )

I don't understand this Christmas thing or how this is possible... But.. how... This ruler guy can do this..?

I miss my brother...

Looks like we might be able to do what we do best here with all the stuff going on.

Tequila, keep your head down.

As you know, by that horrid screaming, one of the princes of Asgard is dead.

You're welcome.

I hope this all serves as a reminder of who you are dealing with.

And Thor, we still need to meet up. Bring another weapon. I'll break it apart like I did Mjölnir.

I've been seeing people ride around on what I'm told are called motorcycles. I want one.
