PARABOLICAL GRAFFITI

Alright, I am going to follow Angel's example here and make up a list of exactly who is on my team. This is going to...
Put it off for months now.
And now it comes down to...
So Buffy. Where do you even stand?
And a second list of who is interested in joining my team. (either in a primary capacity, or a secondary capacity to Fred's research team- this means you report to her first and then to me if she doesn't need you and I need to make up the numbers.)

For those who don't know, I am Faith and I run the Offensive Team at Angel Investigations. Being on the Offensive Teams is a full time commitment. It's not easy and it's not casual. My team covers every single area of the city every single night without fail. This is regardless of who else is in the city at the time, we at AI make sure we cover the city, every night. We fight demons and vampires and do everything we can to protect the citizens of Los Angeles. Joining my team means three things.
1- Nightly patrols in pairs, on the route I assigned.
2- Training sessions with me, three times a week. This is not optional.
3- Reports after every single patrol. Again, this is not optional. I need to know exactly what was seen in which areas, and take the reports to Fred if more research is needed.

This is the regular routine, in addition there are complications if a new and improved bad guy hits the city. Also, we have the walk in-clients. The files get looked at by the command team and cases get assigned by us according to the relevant skills needed. So, let me know now who you are, so I can make sure this city is as protected as it can be.

If you can see this, you're not on the list of those affected by what the Senior Partners pulled off. I could be wrong on a few names here and there but we've got some people still unaccounted for. If I'm missing anyone, I'll add them to the filter.

Ben brought up a really good point. Even though we don't know what has been done to these people to mess up their memories, we can still try and get through to them. It might not work but it would give us a reason to stick close to the affected, keep an eye on them and make sure no harm comes to them until we can reverse it.

This is just a suggestion but I'm thinking maybe the magic types can pow wow and see what you all can come up with? I know, big and powerful Senior Partners, but every little bit would help. Then we could have some people try and locate those that are still MIA? And of course, others trying to help the memory addled to remember correctly. ETA: Buffy also brought up a good point. Go easy with the information! We don't want any broken brains!

I'm all open to any suggestions, ideas, plans, something. I know some of us don't get along but if we want things back to normal, the more we work together on this, the better.

[ooc: People in the C category can see this as well :)]

I have unused time for these inquiries. However, the terms are not applicable to me. These are human terms and I am a machine. Such terms as as... Like. Hate. Favorite. Love. Laugh. These are based on emotion which is limited to human lifeforms. But I shall try to apply them in my case to come up with similar types of answers. Humanity is complicated

( Desire is irrelevant. )

I don't know how secure this is, so anyone not comfortable with the chance that this filter could be hacked is free to assemble in the Hyperion lobby.

In the interest of full disclosure, here is what we are up against because of the arrival of Sylar, who is not the Gabriel any of you knew:

[paraphrase of the information shared with Buffy, not a direct replication of the exchange]

And here is my conversation with him, which is all the information I have, other than specifics about what he's done in the past, which can be laid out if someone needs that information.

[replication of the entire exchange (which is still going)]

He's dangerous and from what I've been told, Sylar is an expert liar. No matter how genuine he seems, you can't assume anything no matter how much you want to.

[ second filter - close family/friends; ]
I don't know how to tell Peter. I don't want to lie, but if he comes back now

[ third filter - Claire (ABC); ]
I don't know if what he said is true, but we'll research and talk to people and find out.

Crap. This isn't...
WE don't even know whats...

Well now look at all the shocked yet oddly curious

Hello kiddies. If you make a paradox and explode the world we have demons that will eat your eyes.

And soul

We like the world. And if it explodes we'll do it

Having fun?

Time travel is weird.

This is all retarded. I want to move to Alaska.

I think the word "strange" doesn't even start to touch on what's going on with the future.

Are these boards stable? Are they safe?

Oh, okay, a temporal displacement. Interesting. At least we're still on the same world, that's a start at least. But which year are we in? and frak it feels strange to use an uninfected network again

Having a famous family is funny, especially when all these people think we're not real. You guys gotta check these out, they're epic. Crazy, but epic.

Thirty more Dean Winchester facts.

Top 10 Sam Winchester Facts.

Bet I could find some about some of the rest of you!

So you've gone through four Buffy's, Faith's dating a crazy guy, Spike's with Harmony again and Lindsey's married?

This version is definitely screwy.

For those not in the know, I'm Angel and I gather my last version here didn't go out on the best of terms so let me clarify, Not evil. Anymore.

And not dead. Besides, y'know. The being dead.

[Cordy]

We need to talk I think. And soon.

I need a roll call on who usually takes part in the getting rid of bad guys in the city deal. Or at least, anyone who's in against the Scourge. I don't know many of you, so I need to know who you are and what you can do. There's two places the Scourge are located, so I need to know the numbers and skills we have to work with. I understand the Justice League is in, but that doesn't really mean much to me, other than powerful people, so I'd like a roll call from you guys too.

I've heard talk of disguises, ideally it would be awesome if we could have people on the inside. But I don't know if we have time for something like that, so probably not, unless someone people are really just that good.

If anyones good with bows, crossbows, attacking from a distance, let me know that as well.

[Xander]
I need you on this. If you're up for it.

I've become quite the night owl. I expect that everyone else in The Hyperion is sleeping, and yet here I am, awake in front of this computer screen with nothing of real substance to report. At least I have a nice cup of tea to keep me company. Even as drowsiness comes over me, I resist it for no reason other than stubbornness. Every night I have been reading - Fred, you weren't lying when you said the library in here was well-stocked and managed. I read till dawn, feeling a strange connection to a certain vampire I was once employed for, and then sleep for just a few hours until I try to make myself useful.

I noticed nothing was going on with the small garden area we have, so I've taken it upon myself to plant some herbs, as well as some mint (excellent for tea). Please feel free to utilize any of these should you find yourself cooking. I'm afraid I'm not much of a flower-sort, so I haven't done anything in the way of those.

Explain.

[ooc: meet the AU Cylon!Sam!]

Faith she...

You all need to get...

Lock down the hotel.

Just get to the lobby. Nathan please just...

Oh god they got to her, Faith. she's...she's a vampire.

People are strange.

[Filtered to Dean, John and Mary Winchester and f!Claire Bennet]

Before you ask, no I don't know what they're doing. They're careful to stay very hidden from me. I wish I knew.

[Filtered to Ben]

Want to go to the batting cages again some time?

I'm pretty curious, can anyone tell me what the current progress is with artificial intelligence? Are scientists in this era close to it or not?

We've steadily lost a person a day recently, so it's time for a head count, first and foremost.

( the list )

[ Faith / Fred / Peter / Sarah ]
Are we gonna need to start recruiting to cover losses to the patrol ranks? We can spread around the investigative load to everyone, but patrols are what people have come to expect we're doing, especially the bad guys.


[ooc: Noah, Charlie, Angela have been mentioned as vanishing. Was there anyone who'd been dropped/activity checked that had already been mentioned/assumed as disappeared, or do they all need noted as vanishing now?]

Ok, so we have some volunteers for Plan: Not Crazy Honest. (it's what I've decided to call it) Anya's done a basic locator spell and it looks like the vamps have split up into groups. One has taken over an abandoned club [ADDRESS] so that's where we're hitting. I want to meet at sunset, one block away from the club.

Three teams.

Jack, Clark and John, you're with Kennedy, I want you to concentrate on the right side.
Batman and Selene, I want you with Buffy front and center.
Sam, Lindsey, Hiro, you're with me, we'll take the left side.

Everyone is to follow the orders of their Slayer. This isn't an elitism thing, it's just because me B and Ken are so damn used to fighting together now, we know each other's moves and tactics. Remember, we're going to get Intell, not wipe the bastards out yet. I don't want to see anyone acting recklessly or I will personally kick their asses.

Ok?

[ooc: Posting this now because GMT can be a real bitch! If there's anyone else who wants in, comment here and just add which team they'd like to be on, keeping them as balanced as possible. I'll stick the log up in a bit and everyone can feel free to go nuts with sub threads. Toru will be the main vampire being his snarky self there, along with around 50 of his unkillable army! Feel free to puppet the army as much as you want!]

John. It would be unwise to immerse yourself in the chemical solutions that inhabit the Lazarus Pits. I calculate that there is a 99.879 perecnt probility that it would result in your premature termination. In the even that you are of the 0.121 percentage, there is still a 78 to 94 percent probability that it may affect you psychologically. Perhaps permanently.

OKAY. I realize that murder is supposed to be a big "NO" but wouldn't it be okay to just slip up...once? Just once? That's a good record, right? It would be for a good cause.

I'm back. I'm home.

Thank you, everyone. I know a lot of you were looking for me. I truly appreciate it.

I'm... taking some time. I need some time. But I have some plans. Ideas. I know we're not always on the same team, but I like to think we're on the same side. We need a way to work together. We can make some great things happen when we're all on the same page, and I'd like to keep that communication going strong.

Some kind of network, where we can keep one another updated on any new threats to the city, on any current plans, or any potential hazards. A way to coordinate our efforts without any one group dominating the line. We all have our specializations. I think we could use that to have one united front. Better than fighting for a place in line.

Or worse, sitting back and waiting for someone else to step up.

Just thoughts at the moment. The will to act is regrouping. I want to aim it in the right direction.

( [Hyperion] )

( [Niki Sanders] )

John. We must meet.

It's over. Things are back to normal their usual brand of strange.

Is everyone okay?

I want to know why this place complicates everything.

Who is this man "Caleb" かみさ ま の て ?. God hand..he is hurting people, he should be stopped.

There are so many mean people so many villain..

I wasn't aware people were supposed to turn to dust when you took off their head. Please explain.

You people are so quick to be terrified easily. It's really necro, but also too trendy.

I have to ask.

Which would you prefer to see go first? And how?

[ooc: insert pictures of a) pregnant woman and b) a child bound into chairs.]

I am back.

( For Hyperion residents only )

I think we're getting a little off-track here guys. We have people to rescue and a lot to do, but I think we will get it done a lot better if we work as a team instead of divided little factions. Angel put Kata in charge, so before we decide to do anything, we need to clear it with her.

Each of us brings something unique to this team, but we need to be united. Corny as it is, United we stand, divided we fall.

I know we have friends in trouble right now, and we're worried but we need to make this a team effort. If we all ban together we can do what needs to be done, but excluding people for whatever reason...it's dangerous, and I think that needs to stop right now.

There is no I in team.

The snakes are unidentified. They are fatal.. and must be terminated.

I am Uncle Bob. This eclipse is not natural. It was not scheduled to happen at this time.. the cosmic arrangement should not be like this. Therefore, it would be more probably that it is an unnatural cause.
