The Doorway: a panfandom game

[Refugees in the NYPD Supernatural Task Force, Vanessa Ives. Mulder & Scully]

I know the electricity has been unsteady, so I do fear you won't be able to see this message -- And if the matters were not pressing, I can assure you my call for assistance would be peppered with a deconstruction of the faults with forms of communication which rely too heavily on modern comforts.

But the dear Ms. Ives, and others about the tower have bore witness to a strange dark shadowy figure who appears when the lights flicker.

I propose a quick sweep of the tower. I dare say, it could be nothing -- but in all matters such as these, I prefer to err on the side of caution. I suggest we all do the same.

The storm is over, but something tells me there is still an ill force in the winds. Though I can't say why.

Who: Rick Jones, Steve Rogers & Bruce Banner (all 616)
When: Wednesday, April 8th, Where: Shake Shack, 215 Murray Street
What:While having lunch at Shake Shack, Rick, Steve and Bruce -- and all the other guests are set upon by a black creature. Which tears through the dining area and towards the back. The creature isn't interested in staying unless there's a fight. (Calendar .) Unfortunately for the black shadow creature and Shake Shake....



This means that there will be a Hulk Sighting around 12:45 - 1:00pm, and twitter, youtube & news stations light up with cellphone footage and first-hand accounts. 616 Bruce Banner has almost complete control over the Hulk, so no bystanders or restaurant patrons were hurt. But the shadowy creature was pounded around a bit because it threatened Rick, thrown out the Shake Shake’s front window and dies.

Soon after, Steve calms Bruce down, and shields him from the gathered onlookers as they make their way back to Potts Tower

Stark Industries releases a press statement late in the day, saying they’ll cover all property damage to Shake Shack.

If I didn't already have a robust appreciation for the Do Not Disturb feature on my phone, I certainly would now.

Serious question: when you tweet at someone whom you believe to be trundling through the city at several times his usual size and several times his normal baseline of irritability, do you expect an answer? Do you think you're being helpful? Do you think perhaps he hasn't noticed? Do you think you're going to be the one who finally comes up with the pun he hasn't heard before? I'm curious: what's the end game?

Because - here's a tip - even if he wasn't about to spend his afternoon submitting YouTube takedown notices, the odds that he would appreciate any of that are vanishingly slim.

this google is a WONDERFUL device. you can find all sorts of naughty things on it -- even dirty poetry. for example:

i am a fucking whore
and that's not a metaphor
it's the total fucking truth
i'm a prostitute forsooth

such language! i was looking for work but it seems i have found something far more interesting indeed.

I'm sure I don't need to inform most of you about this afternoon's incident at the local Shake Shack. The brief recap is that the establishment suffered serious collateral damage during an incident which we're still investigating. I'd like to assemble a team of you to assist me in a clean up operation. Any volunteers would be greatly appreciated.


[ Stephen Strange ]
I'd specifically like to tap you as I believe the creature involved in the attack is more within your realm of expertise.

[Bruce Banner (616)]

Hey. Should I even ask how you are? Need anything? If you'd rather be left alone, I get it.

FILTERED TO ASHLEY WILLIAMS:

Shepard's gone.

You weren't kidding when you said people appear and disappear without warning.

Everyone can relax, I'm just fine.




[ filter: BRUCE BANNER (616) ]

Thank you.

How long had it been?

I have been quiet for long enough, I think, and my sword arm is becoming weaker by the moment. I would be glad for the chance to remedy this, should any prove up to the challenge.

My dream of running into Warren Buffet on the street and convincing him to fund my ten-year Fijian artist's retreat has just been downgraded to ... seriously, who has money and actually lives in this shithole? David Koch?

Time to hit the scratchcards. Fuck you too, New York.

Who: Teddy Altman and Peter Parker
When: Yesterday -- April 7th, just before the storm starts.
Where: A random rooftop in NYC
What: Talking about breakups.
Rating: Low.

Can I go to Atlantic City with Saul Goodman?

Can I borrow $50,000 to go to Atlantic City with Saul Goodman and Moriarty?

Now that the ink is completely dry and my new clearance is working.

You're looking Pepper Potts' new personal assistant!

[Cullen]

We should do something nice, just the two of us. I would like to take a walk, if that's all right with you.

[Inquisition]

Pancakes. We should all get some because it has been too long since we have gotten together.

So thanks to Illyana, we've got a sketch of our mysterious werewolf. I'm sending copies of the sketch to all of you; you should have it in your inbox now.

Now that we know who to look for, hopefully it won't be long until he's caught. And if anyone recognizes him, let me know. I'd like to be able to put a name to the face.
