Save Atlantis RPG

Is it worth even trying when you've killed off the only good part of yourself?

People already hate me on sight. It might just be easier to be the villain considering that I'll likely be alone forever regardless. At least I'll have some fun, right?


[♆ - Veritaserum | Slytherin]

ok but i love you all

i've never been happier??? you're all amazing and you don't hate me which is like a serious bonus you have no fucking idea. god how do i feel like this all the time? shit. i'm a god and this is like chilling in a garden of euphoria.

holy shit, this is what the beatles were all about, isn't it?? i just miss thor.

I went to the beach today, determined to have a good time. If anybody wants to join me in flipping the proverbial bird to the rain, I've created a nice little safety bubble where we can pretend it's actually sunny rather than this pathetic spitting we have.

Normally I'd hate the heat and the summer, but the temperature's been surprisingly reasonable here in comparison to some places on Midgard.

Note to self: stop eating random food that shows up in your room. I always wanted to be a Disney Princess, but not like that.

Is everyone else awake now? Is there anyone unaccounted for?

SHAMARA:

My hero.

Yesterday's storm made me feel strangely nostalgic. I never thought I'd like lightning.

How the fuck is it almost July?

Damn, and here I thought this place was going to be boring with nothing to do. Instead I've got a mission every month. Things seem to be ramping up, though.

This don't happen often, but I'm gonna need to recharge my batteries. Anyplace I guy can go 'round here for a vacation. I'm looking for trees and solitude.

Everybody might want to be a cat and I'll admit the song is catchy but at my house, it's been more like the dog wants to eat the cat. Luna is so confused, she has no idea why my voice is coming out of a cat. Thankfully Lauren has been keeping me safe while also laughing so hard she's crying.

Meow.

( Letter to Fred Bogtrotter )

Ms. Jolie,

I'm somewhat accustomed to oddities as somebody who's been here for long enough to recognise them - however, they often surprise me by being utterly ordinary and harmless, as I'm assuming is the case here. Unless I am somehow conversing with a COS agent, the greatest danger I can see happening here is that I get a papercut or that I spill some ink, both of which are relatively unlikely in the grand scheme of things.

It's a pleasure to meet you too, despite the awful name I've been forced to don for this...event. My true name is much more eloquent than Bogtrotter.

That being said, I'm not entirely sure what the purpose of this exercise is. Atlantis is so small that any reasonable amount of information would reveal our identities to each other, no? So, for the sake of something for you to look at, I've attached my favourite recipe for a breakfast feast.

Sincerely,

""Fred Bogtrotter"" (ugh)

[LOGAN HOWLETT]

Some things have transpired about my... main life? Alternate self? whatever. A whole about six Earth years of it. I feel extremely strange. And how is your Saturday?

[CLINT BARTON]

You've lost loved ones. I know what that is like. Regardless of whether or not Natasha is actually here and you got your children back, it still is nothing but painful. I'm here if you need.

[LOKI ODINSON]

Loki. Mighty Surtur's balls. I got memories. I got so many memories. All that happened in my "home universe". And to Thor. And to Asgardians. So much happened.

Mr. Bogtrotter,

I imagine that as a resident of Atlantis you are accustomed to its oddities inasmuch as it is possible for anyone not newly arrived to be. (If you are a new arrival, then I apologize for any consternation you may currently feel. One does adjust over time, at least to a degree.) Waking to a pile of stationary and a compulsion to write under a pseudonym is one of the more harmless manifestations of overflowing creativity. I find it mor charming then some, but the battle to be fought here is, I believe, worth most of the inconveniences. It is a pleasure to meet you.

Sincerely,

Harriet Jolie

Well, hi everyone! Not my usual vlog, but it's still a pretty cool way to get to know people here. What's up, Atlantis?

Peter Parker here. So, tell me what's fun to do here. Anything exciting happen?

Wow I'm sorry to anyone who tried to talk to me while I was lyrically spellbound. Also thank you.

We'll be together again
I'll be waiting for a long time
We're gonna be, we're gonna be
Together again
I'll been connected to the right line
We'll be together and nobody ain't never
Gonna disconnect us or ever separate us

I'm not sure what a Han Froyo is, but it's surprisingly good. I was less a fan of the Jar Jar Links.

[Valkyrie]

I've been meaning

I didn't thin He just left Norns, why is this so har

I know I'm not the Loki you met, nor was I the one Thor knew, but I feel like it's time to touch base. There's a lot of weird foods around town today along with some good ones and I propose we play Russian Roulette with them.

I am placing notice in support of Lieutenant Commander Kirk's resolution to "fuck work" today. A long weekend upon the beach sounds rather relaxing and that is where I will be until our Quidditch match this weekend, should any require my assistance. I would prefer that assistance being something fun or relaxing, should there be any choice in the matter.

Should anyone wish to help with a fire, perhaps we can roast meat to share.

There's something about this place that makes you soft. That's what I'm blaming what happened this afternoon on.

[Roommates (Charlie Montgomery, Athos)]

Yeah, so I hope you guys don't mind the new addition. In my defense, I at least didn't bring all of them home with me. I'm still working on her name. Right now, she's just Pup.

[Sabrina Spellman]

How's it been going lately? Managing to stay out of trouble?

For the record, I hope that's only half a yes.

[Sydney Clarke]

Hey, I'm sorry about your friends leaving. That's really gotta suck.

I'm not a fan of how often this place chooses to take away the people it gives us.

I'm sorry to anyone I was a shitheel to yesterday, I'm not really sure what happened but that was definitely not normal, to act like-- well, like I was a God. For real. Anyway, I promise I'm not usually narcissistic and greedy.

[MOTHER & FATHER]

Hi! Hello. Please don't ground me, because I'm being sent on a mission tonight, for about a week or so? I'll be totally safe, but it's my first chance to do that here.

Don't throw any parties while I'm gone!

[OOC: Atreus had multiple-personalities yesterday, and acted pretty aloof and self-centered at one point, and then his normal chipper/happy self the next.]
