FRED BURKLE + BUFFY SUMMERS
LOW | IN PROGRESS

( Never underestimate a hungry Slayer. )

I don't think I can even put into words what it means to know that the world I come from isn't going to happen.

It still hasn't completely sunk in yet, and I suppose it will take some time, but there is a hope now that I'm not sure I've ever truly felt.

Thank you to everyone who put their lives on the lines, and those who gave theirs for the future here and in all our worlds.

[BUFFY SUMMERS]

I'm so sorry about Faith. I know you were only starting to get to know her here, but she was still a slayer like you.

I'm going to be spending most of my time in Medical helping to get ready people for transport to Mako. Have you thought about going with the group to the island?

[LORNA RAMON]

I'm guessing I'd have a really, really hard time convincing you to go to Mako, wouldn't I?

[MEDICAL/SCIENCE]

Today has been hard, and it's likely going to get harder. I'm so sorry to anyone who has lost someone close to them or if you're worried about those who are injured. As Captain Becker mentioned, the badly injured will be transported over to Mako Island, so they're going to need hands and a lot of help there. We'll also need help here too for those that are staying and if any other attacks happen.

I plan to stay to help coordinate any transfers and helping to make sure our supplies are covered here and there. It's possible I may join the others on Mako at a later point, but right now, I plan to stay.

For those that are staying and those going to Mako: please be careful, and if there is anything anyone needs, please do not hesitate to reach out to me or your direct LCDRs. Thank you all for everything you're doing.

[FRIENDS*]

Please be careful.

ENCRIPTED TO ALL DEVICES

It's been a rough night, we've suffered loses. My personal condolences to those that have lost family and friends. We all feel your pain.

Sharon's mentioned what we're doing with Mako. We've set up a hospital on THE island, a safe place for kids and pets as well as homes.

If you are considering going, please arrive at the Mako entrance by 10:00 in the village. This is not the last time you'll be able to go, but it will be the first wave and I strongly encourage anyone who thinks they can help at the hospital or keep the children and pets safe on Mako to go. We need support there.

There will be other group trips to Mako and you'll get encrypted information when they are.

Be safe everyone, and keep your eyes open. We will not let COS take us down.

MECIAL STAFF + THOSE WITH MEDICAL TRAINING/HEALERS

I'm not going to force anyone to go anywhere but we need talented doctors and medical staff on Mako.

The war isn't going anywhere and it is likely there will be more attacks. You'll be getting the worst injured as quickly as possible and you'll need to be ready.

CLOSE FRIENDS & FAMILY OF CHRISTOPHER PIKE & OCTAVIA BLAKE & FAITH LEHANE

Both Pike and Octavia are in the morgue at the base. Their bodies are secure and as soon as we are able to honor them, we will.

Around 1pm - after COS has been run out

FILTERED TO ALL COMMANDERS AND LT. COMMANDERS

As most of you already know, Intake is completely destroyed. It's a miracle we didn't have anyone killed down there. The roads in and out of the city are also completely destroyed. I'm not making it publicly known that the path to Mako is still safe.

I'll be alerting everyone in Atlantis shortly.

Pike, take the lead on organizing whoever you need to get it up and running. Hathaway, I want you to do the same keeping them safe, Stark & Roberts assist however you can. Johnson, I know you've worked on the technology a great deal, share any information you have while working with anyone who might be able to help.

Dragomir, see what kind of chatter you can pick up.

Burkle, Fitzsimmons, do what you do in making sure the injured are okay.

Carter - I want Alpha to protect the City, set your teams up.

Anderson & Shepard. I want both of your groups of teams focused on how the hell COS Got in in the first place. Anderson, if you want to explore the destroyed roads in and out to start with and work your way back to the Base, Shepard, start at the base. Do whatever you need to do to get intel.

Any questions, ask.

PETER BURKE

There is a lot of panic out there and I know your guys are busy, but can you put two of your people at all times watching the path to Mako? I don't want to draw eyes that it's still okay or get attention there. I don't think COS knows about it.

ENCRIPTED TO EVERYONE'S DEVICES

COS hit us hard this morning and we are going to fight back.

Intake has been destroyed. Until we can get it back up and running there is no getting in or out of Atlantis.

Roads in and out of the city have also been destroyed. Field Agents and PD will be around to help how we can.

This isn't a good time for anyone to go running off on their own, stick together, travel with each other. Try and stick in pairs or more.

Report anything strange you see and stay safe.

OCTAVIA

Few days of calm really was too much to ask.

I get the feeling they aren't done.

I now wear hats.

PLOT: ♆ - ONE CHARACTER EACH decides to go for a completely different look today from their normal style.

Kili! Where are you? I have tried the most amazing beverage! It is very fruity and I believe they call it a [...] smoothy. Ale is much better but this is also good. I never thought I would enjoy fruits this much.

This place is quite strange. Do most of you not hunt for your meals? There are so many taverns in which meals are so easily prepared. I admit it smells good.

It's been a busy few weeks lately with one thing or another, and when I get busy or stressed I start craving some of the foods my Mama used to cook. Or maybe it was because I thought I was 16 for a day and thought I'd be going home for supper.

Trish Burkle made some of the best brisket you've ever tasted. You can argue yours is better but, sorry to say, you'll be wrong. It's no secret oft love for all foods Mexican, so tonight I'm going to combine the two. Mama's brisket tacos.

Tacos aren't just for Tuesdays.

If anyone wants to stop by, you're welcome to it as long as the food lasts. No promises if you show up late.

So, this is Atlantis, huh? I guess that'll teach me to pick up strange coins on the ground. Probably not really, but whatever.

I've had almost a week to look around now and I have to say, I kinda like what you've done with the place. I just told intake I'm staying, so I guess just point me at whatever ass needs kicking.

Oh, right. I hear I've been here before. Sorry I don't remember it.

I know Buffy told me we haven't been kidnapped by aliens or anything, but is everyone SURE that we haven't been kidnapped and drugged by someone? Cause there are flying horses out there, y'all.

I think my head is gonna explode.

[LOCKED AGAINST COPS]

Hey, so does anybody have any weed?

[ooc: Fred's body is the same, but she thinks she's 16 and has no idea what's going on.]

I have to say avoiding getting tangled in yo-yo strings has added to the excitement of the day.

PHIL FS

It was weird going on a mission. I don't know, I feel like everything that is happening is coming to a head, and it feels like a lot of others are feeling the same way. Or I'm just over-

I don't know, seems like the wind is changing so to speak.

So, hypothetically: if a handful of scientific instruments that could be used for good but were issued and provided by Evil Inc. doesn't necessarily mean that the instrument itself is, well, evil, does it?

I had no idea there was much that could be done with root beer.

Root Beer Funnel Cakes, Root Beer Float Shooters, Root Beer Brownies, Cupcakes, Cookies, and root beer pulled pork nachos. It's endless.

The nachos are surprisingly good, it sounds weird, really weird, but amazing.

PLOT: ☆ - There is a Root Beer Festival in Atlantis Park

I can't say I've ever made a lot of t-shirts before, but I had a lot of fun today.

All of her friends at the time this post happens is delivered a t-shirt. They all have food themes and are personalized. - please assume

PLOT: ♆ - ONE CHARACTER REACH finds themselves waking up at 5am this morning and heading to a small room heading on the East side of Atlantis. When you arrive you can't help but make t-shirts for all of your friends.

Hello. I am Caspian. I hope I am doing this correctly I will be assisting Team 1 as a Field Agent. I look forward to making your acquaintance.

Caspian | Pevensies

I am in fresh awe of your ability to travel so seamlessly between worlds.

Hello, my friends.

I almost forgot how relaxing it is to ride a pegasus.

MOM - FRED

I'm sorry your friend Will left yesterday, are you okay?

PHIL F-S

I think we should go riding and maybe have dinner soon? If you want to?

Well, Atlantis.

It's time I say goodbye. I've decided to head on home late this evening when the comings and goings happen. I'm hoping by going back I'll be returned to myself and hey, might end up here again, might not, but my work and skills are better suited to the Sanctuary which is where I need to be.

I'll miss some of you, and wish all of you the best. I know you've got all the tools and people to win.


*I noticed I had 0 activity with him for a month and the muse has just died, he will not be responding to comments.

Hello. I understand that many are very tired of watching the games. But if someone could please help summarize events, I would greatly appreciate it. *

[COMMAND + LEADERS]

Certainly you know this already but I wanted to tell you that before I woke in medical, I was in another room entirely and there was something in my hand. Did you ... retrieve it? It felt ridge-like. Almost like a comb or a puzzle piece.

In the meantime, I am not interested in counseling or in sitting and thinking. Put me to work.

[LOCKED FROM THOSE WHO HAVE OR WILL RETURN FROM THE ARENA]

It's a heartbreaking that we've come to the point of wishing loved ones would die, painlessly and quickly of course, so that they can return home and are back with us.

[LORNA RAMON]

I love you.
