I could get used to not getting carded, but do we have an update on when people will be getting back normal?

[Filtered to SYNAPSE]

How many of us are there left?

And follow-up, I've got a line on a job in Vegas.

Oh cool, we're back before the Ascension.

JON KASIYA:

Don't suppose you're up for a rematch?

;)

GWEN POOLE:

I may have gotten laid the other night.

Who: Fight Club Members Old & New (see inside)
What: A Fight Club, SSB style
When: Tuesday evening. oh fuck is it wednesday whatever. Wednesday evening!
Where: Somewhere in the Mushroom Kingdom

( READY to FIGHT! )

If anyone needs me, I'm gonna be beating up Goombas.

Call me a traditionalist, but there's something about the holidays that makes me miss how we did things back home.

For instance, at Avengers Academy, my school, every year we had a campus-wide easter egg hunt. But after M.O.D.O.K. got really into egg-based IEDs, plastic eggs weren't allowed anymore. So it became a new tradition.

There are 150 miniature bottles of alcohol hidden on this ship.

Game on.

(ETA: Also I should add these bottles are purely for display purposes only. Though they are unopened)

WHO: Everyone.
WHEN: Um, it was supposed to be last night, so let's say tonight.
WHERE: Callisto Deck, Starlight Park
WHAT: Living up to its name, Starlight Park hosts the Festival of Recreation. Leisure. Dancing. And... other things.
TRIGGERS: There will be a section for the

( Oh THAT kind of LEISURE and RECREATION. )

I've been giving it some thought lately. And maybe we should look into getting some group activities going outside the cruise's schedule.

Because if I get invited to one more seminar to buy a thousand credit watch, I might just wind up with one.

Welcome to Space everyone!

Inevitably we will probably all get attacked by something because that's situationally appropriate. But that also means lots of tense situations where romance can blossom!

As such I'm opening up a special variety of my tinder service before all that goes down! Space Tinder!

Comment below on the Space Tinder Header. People then have FIVE COMMENTS ONLY to converse and decide if you want to go out. Other benefits of space Tinder? Maybe you meet some new friends too! Or new enemies! All three options are exciting! And since we haven't run into any hijinks or worlds yet, plenty of date opportunities!

I love it when they turn gravity lower and you can jump higher. I'm on the stateroom decks and it's all WHEE and WOO while I'm shooting arrows around. I'm gonna do null gravity archery next.

Aw bro, you took a one-eyed dog? What is wrong with you? This replacement doesn't act anything like him either. You're pretty much the suck as far as copies goes. What did you do? Use these poor fairies to death and then just decide they'd be good family member replacements?

I hate everything. I just dropped my whole collection of Pokemon cards and they went EVERYWHERE and I think I damaged my favorite one!

Also my phone fell in the toilet, Kate. I didn't mean to, it just happened. Maybe you were right about the lady and threatening to punch her in her face. Can I be excused from school for forever now? I'm pretty sure my math homework accidentally catching fire was a sign.

This isn't the sort of portal I'm used to going through... I was expecting to just have a nice night's sleep after finishing up class at the dojo, but that didn't seem to be in the cards. Now I'm here, wherever and whenever here is.

So uh, hi, I'm Danny Rand. It'd be great to get to meet you guys and I hope there are some friendly faces here.

How are your dreams these days?

And I suggest leaving the birds alone. Unless you would like to become one.

Man do you ever have that feeling that you've been like around for a few weeks in a metaphorical sense but not necessarily in a physical sense, like the person in charge of your storyline has just not been keeping up at all cause they suck or something?

So what's going on with all of yoooooou?

You know what I miss and this town needs?

A bowling alley.

Anyone up for a drive out of town for a few hours of laser bowl? Maybe this weekend?

Has anyone seen Clint?

Can't say the beginning of the year's been boring at least?

[Miles]

So you've had some time to settle in. I know it's a lot. We can go and get some more stuff for your room to help it feel more room like.

I figure we could go over some basics? Plus things like signing up for school and all that.

[SYNAPSE]

Thanks to everyone who helped out against the Grinch Gang. So far from what I've heard prosecution against them has been moving around at a steady clip. A lot of the donations were recovered too.

We're still working with Station to set up as best we can for our headquarters. With the earthquake going on today, keep an eye out if Natasha needs to call us in to assist.

So if people can't lie does that mean it's time for a truth telling meme?

Funny story. This woman hired me to look into her husband. Thought he was cheating on her. Kept finding weird charges on his personal credit card. Couldn't make heads or tales of it.

Turns out, the guy rented:

1 partridge in a pear tree
2 turtle doves
3 French hens
4 calling birds
5 gold rings
6 geese
7 swans
8 maids
9 ladies dancing
10 lords
11 pipers
12 drummers

You can see where this is going, right? He did a flash mob to surprise her because it was her favorite Christmas song, and if that doesn't warm the cold, dead cockles of your heart, I don't know what to tell you.

HAWKEYE INVESTIGATIONS + MOLLY HAYES:

So we have a brand new facility. Turns out wishing for the revamped Hawkeye Investigation building actually worked. State of the art facilities and you know, running water.

MOLLY HAYES + GWEN POOLE:

The housing is all there, too, but I don't want to invite everyone to live there. I think everyone else has their own places anyway.

So Molls, you up for moving? Gwen, you're welcome there. Your room's just like you left it.

HAWKEYE INVESTIGATIONS (FORMERLY BISHOP-BARNES PI):

So we talked at meetings, and this week I'm going to start consolidating the New York office and bringing what we need here. The office I've got here isn't particularly big or anything, so I think I'm going to have to put some of this in storage for now. Maybe Santa will gift me with my fully complete Hawkeye building since I put it in my damn letter, but until then, a storage unit it is.

Gaby, Gwen, Det. Pikachu, and Nina.. we've still got a bunch of easy workload when it comes to insurance claims. They're boring, I know, but they pay the bills and they pay you, so let's get cracking on as many of these as we can. I'm hoping we get enough that we can take the week after Christmas off. All of us. Just to decompress and recoup our wits after losing Bucky.

Oh, and a big welcome to the original Hawkeye, who now has to take orders from me. He loves it. Say hi, Clint.

Breq and I would like to invite you all to a holiday fundraiser dinner on December 7th, starting at 5 PM. Because we will also be opening this up to the general public, it will be hosted in the warehouse we have converted into a community center instead of on Station, located at [address].

Tickets will be sold at the door on a sliding scale, and the funds raised will go towards our efforts to provide food, safe spaces, and support in finding housing, jobs, and medical care for those without. Many foods that are considered typical holiday fare on this planet will be provided, and we would love it if anyone also wanted to bring their favorite holiday foods to share. We are still learning about all the Earth cultures, as well as all the cultures you have brought with you, and this is another very helpful way of donating to the cause.

If you're interested in volunteering your time and energy, either at the event or at other times, let myself or Breq know. We would be glad to have your help.

GABRIEL & ELEANOR SHELLSTROP

What traditions do you two have for the holiday season?

If anyone knows of something that Bucky owned that has significant meaning to you and you want it, let me know. That being said, I've packed up a lot his things that I don't intend to keep. Any chance someone would take this to be donated? I just can't.

[ VIKTOR ]

Do you have any interest whatsoever in observing Thanksgiving?

LAME! Does anyone play soccer? I think I'd rather focus on that than this lameness.

Well, that sucked.

BISHOP-BARNES PRIVATE INVESTIGATIONS:

So we lost one half of the ownership. We had plans in place to turn over our parts if we disappeared to make sure that we could go on.

So let's get together around 10am, Tumbleweed office. I'll order cult pizza and we can discuss where to go from here.

Just a check in on how everyone's doing. Between kidnappings, people decaying, truth spells and transformations this has already been a little more fucked up than a lot of what goes on here and it doesn't help that it's really dragging on for some of us. I obviously can't do my day job like this so I've got a lot of free time if anyone needs to talk, about this or anything else. You can pretend to be a Disney princess or something.

I HAVE A SON?!

Jarvis, I need a drink.

Peg, help me out here, will ya?

Steve! How... how friggin many of you are there?

....that's one hell of a smooth process for newcomers. How long has this been happening for them to get it that perfect?!

I HAVE A SON??!!?!??!

So who's still affected by curses? And is there anything I can do? Like bring you bird seed or go to the butcher shop for animal leftovers? Maybe you need buckets for all those pearls?

If anyone needs anything, let me know. I can't talk, but that seems to be one of the less debilitating fairy effects to deal with.

[...] My classes are certainly going to be interesting.

ILLYANA RASPUTINA

Are you alright? I saw you change at the ball.

How many balls does a town of 10000 people really need?

Nice game you got here. Would be a shame if something happened to it.

Knock knock!

Favorite snack foods, go.

[ FILTERED TO PEGGY CARTER & NATASHA ROMANOFF ]
Hey, what do I do to go about getting guardianship over a minor around here? Hers got sent back recently.

Also, did you know Reduced Fat Cheese Cheeto Puffs existed? What's even the point?

BUCKY BARNES (PH):

Heyyyyyyyyy bro.

So I'm sort of breaching something here when I decided to tell you this, but that woman? She's married. Wasn't sure if you knew that or not.

I know because her husband hired me because he's, you know, suspicious. I got rid of the photos, but you know.

SAM WINCHESTER:

I got a memory upgrade last night on a stakeout. I guess I must have fallen asleep.

CYCLOPS & ROGUE (616) (WITH SAM WINCHESTER):

Hey bros. I got a kid who is going to be going to the EPS starting next week, and I had a couple of questions.

First of all, she's Molly Hayes, and I understand she's got some beef with you and the Avengers for trying to make them go to school and get put in foster homes. Generally trying to break up her family. She's probably going to have nicknames for you all so sorry not sorry about that. (They're kind of funny.)

Second, she's got a telepathic cat named Rufus. He was created, but he was created from mutant genes, so he's technically a mutant too. Can she bring him with her?

And finally, is there some kind of fees that we're going to get slapped with for like lunches or if she wants to play on a soccer team?

[Private to Kate Bishop & Sam Winchester]

So I don't really want to do this, but Henry said we could try to start a soccer team and I've come to the depressing realization that I can't play soccer at regular school because we're not supposed to draw attention to ourselves or WHATEVER.

I guess I should go to dumb old X-Men school with dumb old Crylops and dumb old Frosted Flakes. No wait. She can't be Frosted Flakes because I like those. I need a dumb name for Emma Frost.

[ FILTERED TO HENRY MILLS' PARENTS + TONY STARK ]*
Good afternoon. My name is Jim Rhodes and I help Tony Stark look after Peter Parker, who I believe you know as Henry's friend. The three of us are planning a trip out to California this weekend and we were wondering if Henry would like to join us so that Peter has company his own age?

Unfortunately, teenagers think they're too cool to hang out with old men like Tony and I.

You got me Balam Komarov. He's the one loose end that I want to take out, before I give this a rest.

You in?

The most difficult part of my week is not adopting a new ball of fuzz after every volunteer shift at the SPCA.

( cut for image )

Note to self: I am never ever doing pet surveillance. I will not watch you dog while you're at work because you suspect he is up to no good. And telling you no doesn't make me a shitty detective either.

Seriously, poll guys. How many of you wonder what your pets are up to while you're at work? Lots of us, right? How many people would hire someone to tail their dog? If anyone of you answer that they would, I would like to suggest that you seek some help for your unhealthy obsession with your pet.

I need a safe place to go to ground. The bananas are after me.

( black ops group! )

[ FILTERED TO FRIENDS ]
Check in?

KATE! I FOUND SOME GREAT HELMETS! FOR ME, I MEAN!

( not an ic cut )

Can I wear these instead of the boring one you have now?

Also hi, everyone else. Have a picture of my cat!

RHODEY'S BLACK OPS GROUP:

'Sup newbies?

And some of your old people.

Codenames, bros. We need them. If you have one already, then aces. If not and you don't wanna come up with one, then hit me. I'll come up with one.

Remember this is for communications, so it needs to be something we can easily say, and not get confused with someone else's name.

This lock up is a hell of a lot more easy going than the last one.

They told me I wasn't allowed to leave until I found a guardian. Except my parents aren't here. They also said the X-Men are here and that posting about it wasn't going to cause a shit-storm.

I'm Lauren Strucker. I arrived a few hours ago and I'd really like to not be locked up here any longer. How do I find a new guardian?

One week til the full. Are there any werewolves left now that Scott and Kira are gone? Well, Kira wasn't a werewolf, but she was close.

I used to live with a ghost and a vampire. Sounds like a joke, doesn't it? I lived with two different ghosts, actually. Now I'm just rambling. But it was a Supernatural Trinity and it was strong enough to raise a prophecy baby and defeat the devil.

So if anyone who fills those requirements wants a roommate...

Attention portal-napped members of Tumbleweed.

Team America House is having a BBQ on Sunday. Some of you may know that we all came from a previous alternate reality where we were taken through a portal to Hawaii. As such, a couple of us have become obsessed with Kālua. Cooking in an underground oven. On the menu: pig. Don't worry, there will be vegetarian options on regular BBQ too.

Come join us Sunday at 1pm at our house for eats, and watch Bucky work his cooking skills.

There will be lots of food and music, so if you're free, come stop by!

Blackpoint people, this is non-optional for you unless you have to work or experience some sort of life crisis. Or you're Henry, because I know I can't win that fight.

[ FILTERED TO FRIENDS* ]
Hey, can everyone, for my peace of mind, check in?


[ooc; If they talk, they're friends!]

Laurel Lance was one of the people sent back.
