Who: Julie Power & Nilin Cartier-Wells
When: backdated to 7/22, evening
Where: A random building in NYC
What: A first meeting!
Rating: G!

( 'People think the city doesn't have stars. But all you have to do is look down.' )

Well, look at that. I'm dazzling.

Seems to be something in the water, so I guess we'll be able to tell who has and hasn't bathed, won't we?

oh shit oh shit oh shit that spell totally backfired. what the hell went wrong? what did I say? oh shit... welll at least it's only making the water sparkly.

Well ISN'T this fun? I'm a touch on the sparkly side.. and did that give a little firework display when I ran the water? Awesome. MY BAD

Why does my hair sparkle? OH WELL it's KINDA cool.

Filter: Gaige, Mordecai
HEY DARLINGS.


I still don't have a job.
I can't decide on SHIELD or not.
Maybe? MORDECAI HELP ME.

I'm... sparkling. This is weird, but I guess it could be worse.

[Hank McCoy]
Any news?

I'm feeling charitable, so if anyone wants an app that blocks inane posts which repeat the same blatant observation the previous three have stated, then let me know. I know I'm not the only one who finds the echo on the network pointless and annoying.

The water makes me glitter like a raver. I feel I should put on leather pants and hit a club.


Just a heads up that Jack & I (and my antique coffee machine) will be moving to the top floor. We'll be in 2605 by the end of the week.


[Whoverse + Friends]

It's higher up and it's a two bedroom, so they'll be room for people to crash if they need to. I promise that the spare bedroom will not be entirely filled up with my suits and Jack's coats.

There's talk about doing nineteen seasons of my show. I'm surprised that people would want to write about or watch my life for that long, just on principle.

But I guess that also means, unless their predictions are wrong, that my brother and I are still going to be wrapped up in all this craziness for another decade. I'll still be hunting when I'm forty. Because I doubt it's going to turn into a show about two brothers who used to be hunters but managed to make actual lives for themselves And that's just depressing On the other hand, I suppose that means I'll be alive to see forty, which is a surprise, given my lifestyle. But that doesn't mean I won't die again, or that Dean won't

And I'm sparkling, just like the rest of you. To summarize in gif form:

There were fireworks in the toilet!

There should be fireworks everywhere!

I am not fond of my hair glittering so. It rather ruins my ability to move unnoticed.

Dresden, this is your fault, isn't it?

There is never a dull moment within these towered walls.

With the new school year approaching swiftly, it is time we discuss the future of your education. Are you considering new classes? Furthermore, before your summers end, might I interest any of you children in a trip to New York Hall of Science.

[Filter: Faith & Caroline]

I owe the two of you thanks for your assistance with the vampires the other night. I seem to be mostly back among the fully mended.

[Filter: Fred]

When I stepped out of the shower and I sparkled I admit I was half afraid I'd been bitten by a Twilight vampire the other night despite knowing the opposite.

It seems that it's just something to do with the water, thankfully, so we will not have to be doomed to adding Twilight to our love story.

» Still in Japan?

[Filtered to Spider-Family, 616 Avengers + Jaina]

Peter Parker is Otto Octavius aka Doc Ock. Repeat, Peter Parker is Otto Octavius aka Doc Ock. He attacked Jaina Solo when she realized that something wasn't right -- when she sensed that Peter was not the primary presence inside of him. He has since fled out the window. Pursue immediately if you have the means, but be careful. Jaina can no longer sense Peter, but that doesn't mean that he can't be there. If he is – if there's any chance of getting him back – he must be detained alive.

Perfect. Now I'm one of the sparkling ones. Permission to compel someone to jump into the Hudson if they make a Twilight joke? No?

Worth a try. Just in case, I was teasing mostly for those of you with your panties in a twist.

Caroline! You have to be covered in sparkles too, does that mean I can start calling you DiscoBarbie?

Gah! I'm sparkly. Seriously. Sparkly. I look like a jumped in a box of glitter. All of me. Hair, everything. I had a shower after I got home and SPARKLY!

That's it. I'm hiding under my bed and not coming out until I'm desparkled.

Jim, might I enquire as to why you have developed the sudden habit of insisting I precede you through every doorway?

[/Filter]

I do not understand a great deal of the work that the fans of the television show I am from produce however I find this piece to be rather aesthetically pleasing. It is however still quite strange to see a comment I made in a relatively private conversation with Dr McCoy be known beyond the two of us.

TEXT TO REILLY, BEN, & KAINE:

» Going out tonight.
» Don't wait up, don't try and find me.

For those of you who knew her, Jennifer Walters is gone. She must have been sent back because I am sure that she would have said goodbye if she decided to leave.

Peter's not Peter and he's currently on the loose. If you come across him, act normal or get the hell out. It's not safe. So just steer clear.

This water issue isn't a typical occurrence around here, is it? Having a sparkly infant is one thing, but the small explosions are making him kind of fussy. Come to think of it, it's not exactly the most soothing noise for an adult, either.

LUKE.

I know it's short notice, but I need to run a few errands tonight, and I think Anakin's had enough excitement for one day. Would you mind watching him for a few hours? This isn't that weird, is it?

My kitten has diarrhea, does anyone suggest any vets?

Also how will education work for those who move into the city? Will we still have access to the non-standardized variation of the tower or will we be forced to endure regular schooling?

I don't think I can go to work like this. They'll laugh me out of the department.

Apparently I missed a lot during those two weeks we were gone. People have disappeared like crazy Is Torunn really gone again? What does the Tesseract dealie have against us all being together? And when did we misplace Everyone's moving around and... sparkling. And the security is crazy.

[FILTERED TO BEN REILLY AND STEVE ROGERS (616)]

All right, so this is complicated, but I'm going to try to give you the short version.

I can't sense Peter, exactly. It's as if he's here but not, which I realize doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but the point is that this Otto Octavius person is the only mind I can connect with. Apparently, back in your world, he was dying and he transferred his conscience into Peter's body. And vice versa. Peter, in Octavius's body, sought him out with help from the Sinister Six and they fought. Unfortunately, the real Peter lost and, presumably, everyone assumed Otto was defeated by his heroic enemy.

On the other hand, Peter was able to use some of Otto's own tech to transfer his memories into the other man's mind. This forced Octavius to feel Peter's sense of responsibility. In the process, it seems there was something else left of Peter since Otto experienced some minor moments of lost control before the Tesseract brought him here.

Now, because they are technically the same body, it appears that Otto's arrival shoved Peter into a similar spectral state. That's the theory Octavius has come up with, anyway, and it fits what we know. There seems to be little I can do to fix this. Perhaps without my mental blocks in place, I could try something, but I don't know. I can't take the chance, either way. I'm sorry. I can, however, keep him complacent for awhile longer, if you would like.

Waddling out of a store with a watermelon between your legs requires a certain skill that I'm not so keen on acquiring.

It was the highlight of my day, which makes me think that I'm in the wrong place.

FILTERED TO CLINT BARTON 616:

Shot anything in the last month?

FILTERED TO NICK FURY's A-TEAM (Steve, Val, Jess, Bucky x2, & Logan):

I'm taking a drive up the coastline to Portsmouth, Rhode Island to check out a base or two our pals staking out Stark Tower were holed up in about a month ago. Strictly recon. But I need to get out of the city for a while

There is something wrong with the water. I am sparkling.

I am very glad that I acquired wine and bottled water before this happened, because I am not about to imbibe from the taps while this persists.

Yeah, I'm gonna try to shower somewhere else tonight. I don't need a glitter bath.

Anybody have any idea on when that might clear up?

Uhhhhh why do I look like I just stepped into a Twilight movie?? I can't even begin to believe that I know what that movie is all about. Regardless, I would wear sunglasses when walking, I might be a bit blinding.

Shit, I knew there was a reason I didn't watch that fucking show

Sometimes I watch that piece of shit show I'm on and wonder, you have a guy who can take the form of any animal you want. Why the hell don't you show me shifting into something more exciting than a horse? Seems like the fans were excited about that for about five seconds, but come on. Give me a lion. A grizzly bear. Anything. Damn.

[Filtered to Doctor Strange, Ben Reilly, and Tony Stark (616)]

Doctor Strange. We have a favor to ask of you. I realize that you don't know any of us very well, but on our Earth, you've been of great aid to use on many occasions. Whether your powers are identical to your counterpart's remains to be seen, and yet I sincerely believe that there's a possibility that you can help us.

Peter Parker, a very dear friend of ours, and a very good man, has been possessed by a more malevolent entity. A telepath has determined that Peter is not entirely gone from his own body, but he's thus far proven difficult to access. Once upon a time, your counterpart succeeded in going into our Tony's mind when he was comatose and spiritually "walking" him out of a coma. Your success in that regard leads me to believe that you may have a chance of bringing Peter back to the forefront of his own mind.

Will you take a look?

I hope Morgana doesn't want us to make this a habit. Moving like this Morgana and I are finally settled in our new apartment. The layout isn't any different than the one we were first in, but we're higher up now so the view is different. Or at least I think it is. And we can't hear the people outside shouting

I know that everyone is having the same problem with the water but does anyone know how long it's going to last? It's a little annoying to get out of the bath and be sparkly

[Bonnie Bennett]
I hope I did this right You offered to show me around New York when I first got here. I was wondering if hoping you'd be free sometime this week. I could use some new clothes and I don't know where to go to get them. Or the material to make my own since everyone seems to dress so oddly here

I can honestly say my hair has never been this shiny before.

God I hope I don't glow in the dark.

WHO MADE THE LITTLE SPIDERBOTS? I NEED TO KNOW BECAUSE WE NEED TO BECOME BEST FRIENDS RIGHT NOW!

They are absolutely ADORABLE! And I mean really I have to admire the craftsmanship. This is some quality work, don't think I've seen anyone really match up here. If this was budget work I mean seriously we need to pow wow cause I might even be impressed. If it's not I still might be a little impressed but seriously garage work robotics is where it's at creativity wise. I just adore the movement system that you had in place and I think I may be able to reverse engineer the control scheme that you've set up but considering you don't have a complete neural integration like I do with DT it's pretty fucking sweet!

Unless you do have a fully neural integration and then I really need to know how you went about it cause I've been tweaking mine, since there's clearly always room for improvement especially if I decide to chop off any more limbs and do full on cybernetic implants cause let's me honest that just sounds boss as HELL!

THIS IS A MISSED CONNECTION PEOPLE! I NEED TO HAVE THIS BRAIN MEET MY BRAIN!
