Portland Net

Wormholes and zombies? Is there a Cracher-Mortel running around here again? Can this day get any stranger?

I think I might have found something to help you.

Is there no way to voluntarily go back home?

Stars and stones, I must have left my clothes back in Chicago.

I suppose that's what happens when you travel unexpectedly.

Anyone who's been to Charlie D&D group:

So what's our verdict with LARPing? There are a couple groups that meet in driving distance, or we could just figure something out on our own. That 24-hour rule makes real immersion a bitch, and there's enough of us we could pull it off and we'd be able to plan it around whatever weird shit happens to the portal people.

Is this.. what life is like without supervillains? Just, get up, go to work, come home, try to enjoy the five hours or so you have before you're too tired to stay up anymore? My job so far is fine and all, it just... It's not being a superhero.

Are there any books out there about alchemy that aren't full of crap and have formulas that actually make sense instead of being gibberish?

Private to Viktoria
I think I'm getting the hang of this place.

Hey, I'm Harry Dresden and Katherine asked me to have a word.

If I understand the problem, you want to find a way to stay in this version of Portland? Well, there might be a way to bind you, and whoever else you wish, to this world. I can't promise it will work and I guess we'll only know for sure it hasn't if one of them gets sent home, but it's worth a shot, right?

I know the wishes seem like a really awesome gift and they might easily be just that, but I have had a lot of experience with fairy magic. It's not to be taken lightly. Obviously I can't tell you guys not to use the coins but if you do, make sure you know exactly what it is you're wishing for. Think it through carefully.

Portland. Well, this nowhere near nor nothing like the realm of the Fae.

So a baby? That's new!

Does anybody know who Harry Dresden is? Apparently I'm working for him now.

I know I asked before and I'm pretty sure I dropped the ball, but that's because being in an interdimensional portal threw off my game. D+D. Wednesdays, my place. Beginners more than welcome! There will be snacks, probably alcohol, and this DM accepts bribes.

ETA: Dean Winchester, Harry Dresden, and Ianto Jones are all my bitches so far.

FILTERED TO JOE D. MILLS & ADDY WINCHESTER (hehehehehe):

I picked up some extra boy/girl clothes for you two since it looks like this is gonna go on for a while.

Also some beers, if you guys want to hang out and I swear I won't make fun of either of you. The jokes are all old now.

FILTERED TO DEAN WINCHESTER:

So I'm drawing up a campaign and I need my top human fighter to go tell people this shit is cool. There's an extra under-the-table 500gp and 400xp in it for you, and don't act like you don't want it. D+D is about the only battling you're gonna get to do in this place since we all decided to play nice with the vampires.

Hello Portland online network of the year 2014.

I don’t know if I want this to be a really elaborate dream or not. Because I was kind of in the middle of something important but this is a teeny tiny computer from right out of my dreams so I think I’ll just work on staying in the dream a little longer if this is one.

Plus Holly was pretty nifty and not a demon.

Unless someone is feeding off my dream and I’m slowly dying. Then I think I’d rather wake up.

And take the computer with me.

Is it pinching yourself or slapping yourself that gets you out of a dream?

Did you change or were you lucky enough to stay in your own body?

I'm not panicking. This is me not panicking. I'm completely not panicking. Nope. No panicking. None whatsoever.


Harry... I'm gonna have to call out today. Something sort of... came up.




TONY!!!!!!!

Portland. Seriously?

Well. This is new.

Happy Easter! Don't eat too much chocolate!

Private: Bruce and Steve

I am treating you both to Starbucks today. Mostly because I like you guys but also because I randomly found my Starbucks Card on my dresser this morning as well as... some other stuff. Mainly... Tony's files. I had them all on a special laptop and then backed it up on a USB, and well, I found both the laptop and the USB this morning. It has all the information on the Avengers and anyone that Tony has had dealings with in the past, as well as corporate files for Stark Industries.

I think we should discuss where to put this for safe keeping. What do you say, boys?

Private to Rebekah, Elijah, Hayley, Lexi and Davina's friends.
Davina's gone. Her stuff is gone too, so my guess is she's left Portland.

All right, I've been here way too long and haven't met enough people.

I hear that people are going back to normal, so guess what! Party at my place this Friday night. I've got the XBox set up, there'll be pizza and beer and snacks, and I've even got a D&D campaign ready to go if anyone wants to bring their characters over. And if anyone's up for a slumber party I am in possession of all of the LOTR extended editions and I think it's time for an all-nighter with Frodo & Co.

My place! NE Bryce St! Starting at 8 on Friday! Bring snacks and extra controllers and dice!

I KNEW IT!
