Save Atlantis RPG

I'm rather relieved to have missed this taste of the fountain of youth. At the risk of tempting fate, I think I've lived through my childhood enough times now.

So, is this boat thing supposed to be a three hour tour?

I really love the outfit Atlantis left for me yesterday. Maybe we should have a girls night soon so we all have an excuse to wear these new clothes out somewhere! There's always tango night, if anyone feels like coming.

ETA after Adrian's postFILTERED TO SYDNEY SAGE

You should go on the cruise tonight.

Atlantis has been giving me a strange sense of dejavu lately.

FILTERED: PEVENSIES + CASPIAN + MIA*

I can't share the details, but I'm being sent off for a bit.

FILTERED: MIA RINALDI.

I don't have to leave until the morning. Would you care to join me on this evening's cruise?

[*if I am forgetting a close friend in this, please poke me and I will fix it.]

As strange Atlantis occurrences go, feeling compelled to take pictures all day was one of the most fun. These aren't all of them, but they are a few of my favorites.

No amount of bribery would get me into a museum today. I see enough weird shit all on my own.

I didn't get in on the selfie craze, but I did get this yesterday.

I've never had a pet before, but someone dragged me to the pet adoption event yesterday and I couldn't resist this little guy.

Erm... I'm tiny and stuck in a bottle in the middle of the pond. Now I know how Alice in Wonderland felt.

Anybody could come get me out, please?

I actually like the rain. They aren't cancelling the pegasus riding lessons today, are they?

Come to the pegasi stables. Bring sugar cubes.

Where I'm from, the last Monday of May is dedicated to Memorial Day in America. I imagine that's true for other people, too, even if you're not from the universe I'm from. That's one of those things I imagine crosses universes.

In any case, for us, Memorial Day is when we honor and remember people who died in service with the United States Armed Forces. (We've got a couple other military-related holidays, but this one's specific, and it's always bothered me a bit to hear thanks for my service on a day meant to honor other people instead. Today's not my day.) It's meant to be a somber holiday. A chance to reflect on sacrifice, on duty, on friendship, loyalty. A lot of people stop there, but for me, it's also been a chance to think about what we fight for and about what's worth fighting for. I think that's because when you lose someone important to you, the natural response is to wonder, did it mean something? Did they live a good life? Did they make a difference? Was it worth something? At least, that's how it was for me after I lost Riley.

Riley was my partner. My wingman. And I was his. We served in the Air Force together, in the 58th Rescue Squadron. He was the best friend a guy could ask for. Reliable, confident, someone you knew you could trust with your life. When I lost him, it felt like my whole world fell apart right there. All the time I served in combat, all the things I'd seen, and nothing could prepare me for that moment. I owe him a hell of a lot. I hope he knew that. I keep coming back to that, year after year. I hope he knew how special he was. And I hope I’ve made him proud.

So that's my story. I know we've come from a lot of different places, seen a lot of different things, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who lost someone important to them during some sort of combat situation, whatever that might look like. What I was hoping is that you'd share some of those stories with me, too. Publicly or privately, whatever's most comfortable with you. It used to hurt like hell to talk about the friends I'd lost, but the more I did it, the more it felt like I was honoring their sacrifice and their memory. I'm hoping that can be true for you, too.

I've been wondering lately if I'm in the right department.

My magic is really specialized. I'm a water user, so that's pretty much it. And it's not useless, it has some really good defensive and offensive applications, as Mia and Christian taught me, but I'm not sure how much use it is to the magic department, really, especially during situations like this month.

And magic definitely isn't all I am. I'm a princess, one of the last Dragomirs. I could fight. I could be doing diplomacy or I could go back to intake and relations, which is where I started out. So, I guess what I'm saying is that I've been thinking about a change. I really, really appreciate the chance to work with the magic teams, but I feel like maybe I could do more good elsewhere.

And maybe I could use a little advice, if anyone is willing.

We discovered a puzzle piece on our way back. I have it with me and will bring it by the base for our debrief.

FRIENDS AND FAMILY*

I apologise for the long silence. My team was on a covert mission and I was just able to get back to the network today.

*feel free to assume if you've talked with him before or are part of Alpha field ops since all of alpha trains together!

How does one figure out if they've gone insane or not?

I suppose if this is real then it'd be rude not to introduce myself. I'm Theo Montgomery.

This is insane.


medical.

I hope you know I'm not just going to sit around and do nothing while this is happening. What can I do?

claire callahan & neal burke.

I was told I had to talk to either one of you. I know we're all busy so I'll adjust to your schedule.

[After the 'deaths' on screen, but before McCoy's message]

I'm going to be People aren't toys.

[VA World + Friends]

They're sick, and we're going to destroy them.

[Alpha Teams]

We've got to have found something.

[Peter Pevensie]

I know you're probably really busy patrolling like everyone else, and you've got friends to talk to, and I kind of kissed your cheek out of nowhere the other day but I know you knew Alex, and your family's in there too, and I'm sorry. If you ever did want to talk, I'm here.

ALPHA TEAMS (Phil Coulson, Marcus Cole, Kára Calrissian, Shania Andor, Katie Bell, Marcel Gerard, Rey, Mia Rinaldi, Bobbi Morse, Antoine Triplett)

You have your assignments. I don't need to tell you how important this mission is. I know it's not easy. We've all got people we care about in there. We're down some team members and LCDRs, but no one patrols alone.

If any of you have questions, now's the time.

Is it real what we're watching on TV? It can't be, can it?

It's on every chanel.

So, Cinders has its Taco Tuesdays Cava has weekly wine tastings. What's the chance Tequila tasting would come to Atlantis? Asking for a friend. Tequila Thursdays. Or Tuesdays - they'd go with the tacos.
