May I just say that you people have done absolutely marvelous things with explosives; truly, I am impressed. I understand them to be the source of some measure of controversy, but it is seldom controversial when it is necessary.

Where can I purchase one of these "grenades"? I wish to practise.

Also, "socky" is excellent and ladies wearing trousers is growing on me. Much easier to escape undead hordes that way.

[ Filtered to Vampire/Supernatural Hunters ]

It was suggested to me by one Mr. Giles that I should compile my knowledge of my world's undead plague so that in the event that the Tesseract gets clever we might be prepared. The basics, as it were:
  • Sunlight is not a problem for these vampires; a simple hat and sunglasses and one might blend in with humanity.
  • Silver kills them; it must be ingested or inserted into the brain or heart with great force. With prolonged contact comes burning as in a scald upon a hot stove.
  • Stakes through the heart, bullets through the heart, all quite useless.
  • If you must remove the head, do so with an axe dipped in silver yes? Otherwise it becomes a grotesque play indeed very quickly.
  • Crucifixes and other holy relics present no danger, although I wear a silver crucifix with a very sharp end around my neck that has proven useful over the years.
  • A vampire's bite is poisonous; once bitten, the victim will either die of a fever or become a vampire his or herself. Those of a pure heart die; those who lack a clean soul become vampires. That is why in my world, although our vampires remain the person they were, more vampires are evil, demonic scum than decent. Before you ask, I was a twat growing up. Deal with this.
  • Vampires are stronger and quicker than human beings.
  • They pass for humans until the feed is on them.


Any questions? I believe that covers nearly anything. I'll be happy to answer any questions.

Now, I think we should consider instating a traditional drinking meeting to get to know one another. There are many among you that I would wish to know better. Also: alcohol.

The more you know:
"...the Second of July, 1776, will be the most memorable Epocha, in the History of America. I am apt to believe it will be celebrated by succeeding Generations, as the great anniversary Festival."
- John Adams


Oh, John. If only you knew about Americans and their penchant for historical inaccuracies. In other words, happy anniversary to America. Time for fireworks, barbecue, American flag cakes, posing like a 90s Tommy Hilfiger ad, and all the other 4th of July clichés one could possibly dream of.

So, tell the truth.

Am I creepy?

Nothing like being as old as the country you were born in. Drinks ain't on me tonight, don't even bother asking.

FILTERED TO X-MEN (ALL):
We're back. Don't all cheer at once.

FILTERED TO NICK FURY, STEVE ROGERS, KITTY PRYDE, NATASHA ROMANOVA, ORORO MONROE, SCOTT SUMMERS (All 616), JEAN GREY (MOVIE):
Didn't find jack. Got some fucking empty leads but he ain't there. If he is, he's too damn hidden to find shit.

I have it on a hypothesis that this time, this contraption will actually succeed. If not, no one sees this and I take to drink while the morning birds are still rising from their slumber.

If you can see this, my name is Henry Sturges. I am taken to understand that a certain Mr. Gügle (dreadful name) already knows everything about each one of us and is liberal with information when asked, so I don't see that there's any harm with being forthright. I immigrated to the United States in the 1830s, my favorite colour is green, and my favourite hobby is murdering the vicious undead where they stand. I was told that there are many of the undead persuasion here in Potts Tower, but cautioned that most have a conscience and do not harm others. We shall see. If hunting vampires is your favourite hobby as well, we should talk.

As an aside, I am a vampire myself. I trust that this will not be a problem, and if it is, kindly get out of my way and cry yourself to sleep for I have work to do.

I am from the year 1865. I realize that this is quite unlikely given the human lifespan, but I did have plans for the man: does anyone know a Mr. Abraham Lincoln? Tall, gangly, prone to melancholy? Oh right - he was President for a spell as well. Thank you in advance.

I thought it was awkward meeting someone who looks just like me but from another world.

Turns out that there is a way to top that level of awkwardness after all. (Sorry, again, Henry. If you've figured out how to use this.)

I love how this place is basically a weird fever dream version of what I know, only with the extra fun of being trapped indefinitely.

And by love, I mean hate.

I wish I could say I didn't get it, but I do. Because I know an arms race when I see one and I know how lucky we were to have Jon who was...the only one. But these bombings, these attacks -- we all know what comes next.

Hello, everyone. My name is Virginia Potts. I'm better known as (and answer to) the moniker that Tony gave me many years ago, Pepper.

I wanted to take a moment to welcome you all to the Refugee Network. Tony Stark - as well as many others - created the network so you would have a safe space to talk without the prying eyes of the media. I'd like to give them a warm thank you for their hard work.

Some of you have been here for a while, and as of today, the Tesseract has given us more refugees than it has in the previous five months, and it's still going. I'd like to take a moment to thank the hard-working men and women of S.H.I.E.L.D. for their diligence and perseverance. Without their quick thinking when refugees began to appear, this would have been nearly impossible for any one of us to handle.

And on that note, Director Fury has asked me to pass along the message that they are in dire need for Administrative Staff to help with processing. Anyone who is interested can pass on a note to your Housing Assistant.

Speaking of, there should be one Housing Assistant per two floors (and in one case, three floors). Should you require any assistance, they should be able to help you. Potts Tower is not a new building, but we have gutted it, given it an ARC reactor for clean energy, a full service gym in the basement, an outdoor patio and pool area, and an entertainment area. We plan to utilize all of these areas in the upcoming holiday season in the hopes that it helps alleviate some of the melancholy of being without your families.

Once again, welcome to the Refugee Network and Potts Tower, and I look forward to getting to know you.

-Virginia Potts
