The Doorway: a panfandom game

-- hey you.
-- hows the new room?

Someone pinch me. I'm actually talking to the Hot One from Glee.

I've skimmed enough of this network to have figured out a couple things:

1. I'm pretty much stuck here.
2. Until, apparently, I randomly disappear.
3. I've been here before. Creepy.
4. I am a very, very ugly crier.
5. Being able to see my friends by googling their names is not comforting.
6. I need a job. Or at least spend less of my stipend on wine until I get a job, that was a mistake.
7. My Valentine's Day plans are thoroughly ruined, but... honestly the guy I was dating was casual and the more I think about it, the more on the fence I am about getting all up in that business anyway. I'm definitely the hot one in that relationship, but at what cost?

OLIVER QUEEN:

Hi, Kurt Hummel, new friends with your girlfriend.

Tell me you actually have Valentine's Day plans for Chloe, because so help me god if your idea of a romantic Feb. 14th (on a Saturday!) for your just-made-it-official girlfriend is brooding on the roof while she watches Netflix, I will hurl something out a window.

SHARON CARTER (MCU):

Hey, Alice.

It's been a while, by SHIELD's probably keeping you busy. You doing okay? I assume you saw about Peggy. I haven't said anything to her about you. To tell you the truth, I barely know what to say to her at all.

Anyway, I thought I'd check in and see how you've been doing.

Moved to the third floor over the weekend. Time to make another floor of the tower smell like cupcakes during another one of my stressbaking adventures. Red velvet or chocolate?

Oliver Queen (Arrow):

How do we live together now and I still feel like I've barely seen you! You were asleep when I woke up this morning. I'm down in the basement if you need me! Also, I think I made friends. Or people I enjoy observing. Whatever.

The past month has gone by fast, Noah's already a month old. I'm pretty sure if I blink for too long, Noah will be grown up in no time.


[Housing Assistants below Floor 13]

Hello, fellow Housing Assistants. My family and I require a 3 bedroom apartment, which there are none on my floors. I would like to remain a Housing Assistant, if at all possible. I thought I would ask if anyone would be interested in switching floors with me. Thanks.

Hi, my name is Rick Castle. I've seen you post about working on furniture orders here on the network. I was curious if you'd take a special order.

Is there any particular reason we have picket signs outside of our front doors once again? I really did not miss having them.

Today's so-old-it's-new-again lesson in the fundamental principles of science: correlation does not imply causation. Rotting meat doesn't spontaneously generate maggots. Rising ice cream sales don't cause violent crime. Vaccines don't cause autism. Genetically modified crops don't cause allergies.

And the arrival of a large community of displaced and, admittedly, often rather unusual individuals does not cause the arrival of violent giants of mysterious origin.

Some of us came here on bikes.

Disaffected queers of Potts Tower.

I can't be the only one sick of hearing about Valentine's day. Or you know, sick of hearing people complain about how they're sick of valentines day. So fuck it. Let those boring heterosexuals relish their boring hegemonic relationship structures on yet another day. And let's out. Not a couple thing, just a few good drinks and a hell of a lot of ex issues, as gay god intended.

Village Pourhouse has some good deals next week, starting at 7.

Are the residents of this city always so friendly, or are we just fortunate enough to have them in our midst? Then again, I do understand the idea of fearing that which you do not understand.

Testing. Is this thing on? I am looking for Blaine Anderson and Kurt Hummel, and they are probably looking for me as well.

After being here for a couple of weeks I think I'm starting to finally wrap my head around all of this.

Now I just need to find a source of income. I do hate having nothing to do. I worked with computers back home - I was a hacker essentially but I also did work as a PA. Any suggestions?

Group Message to the Solo kids

-- Alright. Valentine's Day. Your mom. Help. You're my only hope.

If someone is summoning man eating giants, it would be nice if you let the rest of us know.

Just in case.

[Oliver]

So that blonde you're spending time with moved to the third floor.

You live on the third floor.

[Laurel]

How's the job hunt going? I have some superbowl winnings I can treat you to dinner with.

[Text Message to Rikki Barnes]

-- Grumpy cat, my Grumpy Cat.
-- Gold or silver?
[...]
-- Also?
-- My DAD is asking me for dating advice.

How many of you read the news today? Admittedly, the supernatural pickings are usually slim or have to be read into. I've been doing that to try to keep tabs on the "native" population, turned by escaped misbehaving supernatural types or ones never brought to the tower. Whatever means. But my point is, some jogger was attacked last night by a "wolfman". It could be the same wolf that attacked Zoe or a different one. But this was along the 7th/8th, at least four days after the full moon. That knocks a lot of wolf types out of the running, from Harry Potter to Buffy to Vampire Diaries, just for starters. True Blood, TVD hybrids, and some others could still be involved.

Also if it's a "wolfman" I'm wondering what mix of wolf/man the attacker presented as. Perhaps we can check on the jogger, talk with some of the police (or maybe, Sam Winchester... that might be your type of thing?).

if you win, you live

blade shaking in hand, but i know all the same that there is only one rule that allows you to keep on living. ignoring it doesn't change it. fight, fight, fight. matters now more than even, because it is not just me, but also him. fight/win to save him.

Tracking has been confirmed, both what we tagged and the last known locations of many students. Later reports of seeing them out and about fell short. Friends either confirmed their absences or a hazy memory, due to alcohol, and no surety of seeing them. The Tartu University Clinic, which specializes in psychiatry, not the andrology branch. Not particularly shocking in a town that mostly works there. But we need someone to be seen as a patient. Amador, if you're up for it, I'd like that to be you. Information gathering for the first visit. Lets get a sense of scale, as well as any suspicious locations we can check out further.

It's good to know America didn't have any problems before we arrived, like slavery, subjugation of women, HYDRA, racism, or anything less than that strangely characterized time from the 1950s where women cheerfully cleaned and cooked all day for their honeys. They don't understand "queer" people (why are we queer? we're more normal than most heterosexuals I see in this city. And where are the gay people? No way it's ten percent). Perhaps we're the new Irish, the new Chinese, the new Japanese. We're from other worlds. So not even the Americans among us are truly American, even those who voted.

Apparently there's a holiday coming up that's all hearts and love and chocolate.

I really liked the chocolate part when the girl at the coffee shop was talking about it. Like a huge fan.

[Asami]

Eh?

I mean the Tenzin one is pretty traumatizing but also hilarious in how upset it'd make him.

Someone better explain how I can return home right now. I'm needed there.

[Kamala]

Still up for that pizza?

[Abigail]

Would you believe that my judgement has been compromised?

[Luke]

Coffee was nice. I think I like coffee.

You don't need to hold out for a hero any longer. You should work with me.

Filtered: Cora Amell

You're the girl I wanna ask: who from your world should be on my team? There's a lot of them now. Kicking ass, talking with people, seems like someone from Thedas should be great at that.

Filtered: Alistair Theren & Morrigan

So you both know Cora, the Warden. I do too, less well, but I trust her judgment. There's no blight here, but we have interesting shit sprouting out our ears. And I help with one, the White Event. Morrigan, you missed those happening. Lots of white (or black) and new powers. It's a race between us and the bad guys - who brainwash, kill, torture - to talk with and protect them. So it's talking with people and kicking ass when need be. Cora said you two were the ones who could help. That's good enough for me. So... we can talk over drinks or here. Tell me you want in. It's fun and exciting.

This place certainly has plenty of chilly weather, doesn't it? It reminds me of being up in the mountains. I suppose, one benefit is that here I have the comforts of home no matter how cold it is outside. And no dragons that I know of are around here.

I am making some evening tea and a bite to eat, maybe some biscuits with it. Would anyone care to join me and share stories? I do need to learn not to smoke so much. I'm nearly out of the spare pipe weed that had come with me here!
