The 100; a panfandom game

Claire's post got me thinking... Wow, I miss Reese's. But then this morning, I learned the joy of having to sharpen the last two inches of my eyeliner pencil with a knife. My mascara dried up like, two months ago, and my Nars lip gloss is on it's last legs.

I miss Sephora.

If anyone feels the need to rain on my parade, and talk about how there's bgger things in life to worry about, blah, blah noble superhero shit, I will make your eardrums bleed. People need creature comforts, and $30 eyeliner just happens to be mine. Join in on the commiserate instead, okay? What dumb item do you miss from home that while you can completely live without, life just isn't the same? (I think 'vibrators' goes without saying, but by all means.)

People are so annoying to me. This weekend I got a lot of "you're very cute but a little young for me". This is a general announcement that I'm 18ish, and therefore an adult and capable of making my own decisions about having sex and relationships. I don't understand why people get uncomfortable about age differences. Do they think that I'm immature because I'm not some magic number? And that I will become mature on a specific birthday?

I've gone through a lot. I was a coyote for seven years after I ate my mom and sister. I was targeted by assassins. I took algebra in summer school. Horrible stuff like that. And I say 18ish because I don't know how coyotes age or if my time spent as one "counted".

Is it a "take advantage of a younger person" thing? Because if someone tries to take advantage of me, I'll just kill them. See? You can totally date me now.

I don't care if people aren't interested in me because they think I'm weird. That's their poor life decision that they will later regret, because I'm an awesome girlfriend. But I don't understand why people get hung up over age. Can someone explain it to me in a way that will help me no longer think you're all being stupid?

{Edited to Add] Lydia suggested that I get to know someone before I date them and find true love. Please apply for consideration here.

[Chatty to Barry]

So before I freak out and risk the wrath of Dr. Chun, please tell me you didn't send me an anonymous Valentine's card? Because if I try to hack it (and likely get caught, I mean, I'm good but she's a LITERAL GHOST IN THE SHELL HOW COOL IS THAT) and find out it was a joke, that would be really really not funny.

[Private]

To Do List:

1. Shower.
2. Iron Shirts?
3. Count drink rations.
4. Look cool.
5. Mention NOT mention I'm Vibe, because bragging is a turn off
6. Felicity could hack-- no, she'd tell me it's more romantic to let it be anonymous. CURSES.

This is going to consume my every thought until I figure it out. It's probably Oliver Queen, since I didn't fall for his glitter reverse psychology.

So, big day tomorrow. You know, for the people who enjoy it. Not so much for the people who don't. Okay, killed the mood there Thank Odin/Zeus/Jupiter/Cthulhu for backspace There any parties for people without dates tomorrow? Just, you know, hang out, play some cards, talk about stuff, be social? Because I'm down with that. Don't want to crash anybody's plans or anything. I could just stay down in the lab, maybe throw a small thing there? Who's with me?

Kira's making her valentine cards in diamond shapes cos she says hearts are stupid.

That's my girl.

Generally, if I'm going to walk into another world, I'd like to actually walk into it instead of being randomly dropped. But this tablet is fascinating, I've been trying to work on an updated interface for some of my machines and haven't come close to anything like this.

Intake told me that Avatar Korra is here and I haven't seen her yet. If you've met her, you know it. Could someone point me toward her?

[FILTERED TO GEORGE LASS]

Is it feeling like a particularly Reap-y day to you? Something is off, but I can't pinpoint it.

[FILTERED TO TEEN WOLF]

Something is going to happen soon. I don't know what, but it's... I don't know. Not in the mountain. But big. Less screams and voices of the dead and more yelling and sonic transference. I feel death but I can't pin it on anyone here.

PS totally as tired of this place as I am of home. At least home isn't like sleeping in Motel Glen Capri every night.

I know we have movies on Saturday nights, but since there's quite a lot of people here who came from similar worlds at a similar time there are some movies we all grew up knowing very, very well. Daisy's post was a reference to one of those, The Princess Bride, which I'd like to show tomorrow night. There should be room to one end of the 501 commons so we won't need to clear the mess hall. If needs be I can set up an extra monitor or two and sync the video.

(Parents: The Princess Bride is child-friendly down to about maybe 8 or 10?)

If there's enough interest I found a few more movies from around the same time that we could watch on future nights - including Labyrinth, The Never-Ending Story, Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Gremlins, Teen Wolf, The Lost Boys, and the movie version of the community theatre club's upcoming show, Little Shop of Horrors. I could probably arrange to play that one just before auditions open.

Okay, this is new. I mean not exactly, I've been to other worlds. Well... just one, a spirit world. But that's not this, and this isn't home, so.

Yeah, this is new.

Anyway, I'm Korra. I've been assigned to the Alpha team as a soldier, and I've got to say I've been in plenty of fights and my fair share of wars, but a formal soldier and military thing's a little different for me. Are there uniforms? I hope not

I've got a few other questions... Hold on, I wrote them down earlier:

1. Any other elemental users here? We call them benders back home, but I guess that term won't get me too far here so I'll be more broad. People that can control fire, water, earth and air?

2. I asked already, but hoping that by chance she snuck in... Has anyone run into a woman named Asami? She's gorgeous, you can't miss her.

[ALPHA (SOLDIERS)]

Here's to introducing myself a little more thoroughly. Is the military here more of a formality, or has it been established because it's frequently needed? I'm also willing to answer as much about myself as I need to to make you feel comfortable working with me.

I don't know about you, but next week, I'm getting my dancing shoes on. Metaphorically. I don't have a pair of heels magically here, but I know how to shake it with some low shoes.

Anyone else interested, I'll be hosting a night at the Rose for anyone wanting to cut loose for a few hours. Head on over after the movie next Saturday night!

Anyone with digital music they'd like to hear, send it on over to me, and I'll get it on the list.

Right then. I guess I've not actually gone mad and you lot are all real after all. Or real enough, anyway.

I'm Sarah. How bad is it here?

Clone Club

Already saw Cosima, but I heard Felix and Alison are here too? I've got Kira.

Well that was a new and overly informative method of torture.

[Filter to Friends] (ooc: feel free to assume)

Probably bad timing considering the info session this evening, but I just wanted to say thanks. For the birthday party last week. That was a first meant a lot. Really.

[Filter to Billy]

Ok, I... uh...

I keep putting this off. Because most of the time just putting it off seemed to work fine even if it didn't, but with the whole thing this evening, I was wondering...

I have questions and I was wondering if maybe you could... help?

Finally finished reading the Jane Eyre book Evie tossed at my head during last month's quarantine. Didn't much fancy it, to be honest. First of all, my god, poor Jane. That woman was cursed from the start then, wasn't she? Glad she managed to go to school after her wretched turn as her family either abused her or died of typhus, but then she got assigned to the middle-of-sodding-nowhere with Mr. Rochester and the swamp ghost family.

Terribly sorrowed that she didn't join forces with the madwoman in the attic, who clearly got the worst end of every deal, and probably just needed some hot tea and to be talked to until she felt much better. 'Madwoman', Christ. Is that an early 19th century euphemism for possessing an opinion? At any rate, there's a fire that conveniently kills her off and winds up blinding Rochester, and Jane goes away for a while, and then she comes back to be with Rochester forever because somehow it's not a deal-breaker that your love's first spouse got shoved into the attic with out-of-season winter coats and old army paraphernalia. Also, Jane has prophetic dreams and hears voices and whatnot which they never really sorted out, so I'm hoping that a few weeks after she marries Rochester she has a dream in which she adapts a flaming sword and avenges the abused, and then she leaves Rochester a note that says "it has all been very fun, and you have been quite good to me, Edward, but I desire to see the world and leave you in my wake before you poison my ev'ry thought" or whatever it is she'd have occasion to write. And then she'd train with a sword and hone her magical powers and have adventures and settle down with a nice person who doesn't keep their spouse in the attic, because again, how is she okay with that?

I don't get gothic romance.

And of course reminder that Fight Club's happening on the 19th, if you want to pop in and cheer for your mates or enter the ring yourself. I got my arse positively handed to me last month by one Faith Lehane, and I'm still dying to take on one of you nine feet tall types, so come on by! All's welcome.

Unless you're Edward Rochester, in which case, piss off.

I'd really hoped that life could actually go back to normal now.

Getting freaking kidnapped again, was so not in my plans for the year.

I'm really, really sorry about the power cut yesterday. I can still sort of hear them, just... now I know it's not real.

[Malia]
Thanks for not leaving me.

Now that I'm a bit more settled in I thought I'd ask for a bit of help. Dr. Foster and I are attempting to put together a database of all of the universes represented here as well as any supernatural or magical elements that might go along with them. We'd also like to gather as much information about universes that may have once been represented here, but are no longer. I've come up with a survey for individuals to fill out and we will also be canvasing as well.

The hope is that with a better understanding of the magics and supernatural elements found in each universe we may be able to help individuals here. The possibilities across universes is really quite fascinating and there can be some good we can do for our fellow man perhaps.

Your name:
Species:
Other Species found on your planet or in your galaxy?:
What galaxy is your universe in? Specific planet?:
Noted differences between your species and humans?:
Noted differences between your environment and that of earth:
Are there any powers or magical abilities associated with your species?:
Is there a fictional representation of your universe here and if so, what is it?
Anything else worthy of note:

If I were a proud man my ego would be severely damaged by having my ass handed to me by a seven year old.

I think I actually miss Der Waffle Haus. And, I didn't even miss it when it burnt down.

But, now I'm here. It's bloody weird.

Or, maybe I just miss pancakes. Who knows?

Well the good thing is, it's almost February, and that means only one more month of winter. After that it's just really cold spring.

I like this idea, especially since I have to run through the "yes, I'm an alien" conversation at least once a month. Which I don't mind! But sometimes it's nice to give people the chance to ask without feeling uncomfortable.

I'm Admiral Tali'Zorah vas Normandy nar Rayya (formerly vas Neema) of the Quarian migrant fleet. Normally I wear a suit, and I still wear it outdoors here, if you've seen anyone in a purple mask that's me. But the same thing that brought us here improved my immune system enough so that I can survive without it, with only minimal allergies. Here, I work in Tech, but back home I was an machinist, hacker and engineer on the SSV Normandy and on Commander Shepard's squad.

Feel free to ask me questions! I'll answer anything and I like talking about ships and mechanics. ... I also tend to ramble if you get me going on about engines. But I do very good impressions of the Normandy engines.

Helpfully everyone regained their ages in time for the Tourney tomorrow. I could think of absolutely nothing more awful than being a kid again so, hope you're all recovered/not entirely mentally scarred See Vassy, empathy

...Which is a sentence I never thought I'd say. This place is still basically crazy.

Reasonably good sign ups though, and no I was six for the last few days excuses. It's not going to make you better or worse at this stage.

So is this part of the apocalypse? Should I expect an occasional burst of youth every now and then? Because to be honest, reliving my childhood kind of sounds like a nightmare.

But hey, I don't mind kids. If anyone needs help, let me know.

Lydia, Jordan, Kira, Malia -- you guys all good?
