The Doorway: a panfandom game

I've been trained in how to handle myself when placed into various situations. Those not covered I've learned through experience. This, however, is one situation NCIS does not cover or entertain. And while that debriefing was thorough I'm certain I left with more questions than I did answers.

Usagi

Hello,

I don't think you'd remember me but I'm Kathryn. I knew you briefly when you were here before. I know you reappeared a few days ago but I would like to extend the offer you gave me - if there is anything I can do for you though I'm still learning much myself I would be more than happy too.

Hey guys, I'm Tony Stark, and it's been brought to my attention that you want to build a starship. Which is really cool. I want to help.

I want to help in a let's-throw-caution-to-the-wind-and-see-the-stars kind of way, but that's just not going to happen. Realistically, it can't happen. For a lot of reasons - mostly to do with paperwork... and billions of dollars of not-just-my-money with no guaranteed return. And Pepper would kill me.

Which is really, the scariest part.

But I'm not giving up on this project. It's what I want to see, and I think it's something we could work towards. We've just got to dream big - but start small. What I want to do, what I think Stark Industries is capable of doing right now, is to start building, manufacturing and selling some of your technology -- some of the same technology you'll use to build a craft -- and using that to start funding a bigger, badder, longer and uncut Space program (probably partnered with NASA, and maintaining strict patents and manufacturing licenses).

The tech I'm talking about, here, is your Holodecks, your replicators, your transporters, the things that could benefit this world -- all of it -- right here and right now. Because, guys, let's be real about this. There isn't really a way for you to share the future with us and limit it. It's going to get out. It's going to change the world.

So let's start with something positive before we get too lost in a vanity project, right? Which is maybe something I never thought I'd say, but there it is.

[Starfleet Ladies]

Is everyone going to the celebration on Saturday?


Well, I believe I'm in need of a dress for the occasion. Anyone want to go shopping with me on Saturday morning? It's horribly last minute and yet it is the only time I think I'd have time to actually look for something. We could even make a day of it since the celebration isn't until 7 and have lunch.

[Filtered to Starfleet and friends of TOS Kirk and Spock *]

About two months ago, Spock (from my timeline) and I chose to life-bond. That makes us more or less married by Vulcan standards, outside of a traditional ceremony. We haven't decided on the ceremony itself yet, but I've always been a fan of celebrations. I rented out the 13th floor of the building for this Saturday at 7 PM. Food and drinks are provided, feel free to bring guests. No gifts required, your presence is enough.





[Filtered to Spock (TOS)]

Surprise. Also, do you want to do an official ceremony some time in the next month?

I think today may mark the first time I've seen someone dressed as me who was not seven and celebrating Captain Picard Day on the Enterprise.

I suppose this has to do with the Comic Con scheduled this weekend.

If I'd been thinking ahead I would have done some travelling this weekend, but it's probably too late for much of that.

[Starfleet]

We're trying to set up a Starfleet dinner/meeting/forum to discuss a proposal that has been made. Would one of the next two weekends work? Ideally, everyone would be there. Food and drink will be provided.

[Chapel]

Help. I seem to have gotten myself in a situation.

[Cameron Mitchell]

Well, I think you can smack me upside the head now.

[TOS Kirk | Picard]

Gentlemen. I believe I find myself in need of advice.

[Pavel]

Dinner, tonight?

How many of you work in the Phsysics section of the SHIELD R&D? I submitted my resume to the HR person to see if I could work there and I am curious as to what it is like from someone who actually works in the area - or R&D in general for them.

Hestia

Thank you for the delivery, they were wonderful. The Butterbeer had to be my favorite though.

Christine

I forgot to ask, how did your trip go?

There are still more questions than answers to borrow the expression but things are starting to make some sense. Modern electronics however are a work in progress. But I'm also seeing its ok to ask for help for things like getting directions, I've been spending a lot of time at the public library trying to learn about everything that has happened since the war. Still confused but its part of learning. But Mr. Wyndam-Pryce's help in terms of the kettle and archery gear was a huge help, it now feels a little more like an actual home in here.

But at the same time I miss being in school and I want to attend university. Ironic since I always wanted to study overseas and in an odd way I can now.

So who do I need to speak with about going back to school given the time period factor among other things?

*Filter: Anyone from World War 2 era Europe*

I am curious but who else is here from that period of time? I've already spoken with Captain Harkness, Mr. Lehnsherr and Mr. Dumbledore via the device.

*Filter: Ladies that know modern fashion*

What are young ladies my age wearing now? I learned maybe my long skirt is not the most period friendly but I still want to look like a lady.

It has been quite a while since I've enjoyed the decorations that come with the changing of the seasons and with upcoming holidays. On the Enterprise such things were typically confined to crew quarters and sometimes the common areas, and never with the fervour and dedication that seems to be shown here.

[Filter: Will & Deanna]

It's been a while since the two of you have joined me for dinner. Perhaps you will do me the honuor this coming weekend?

( It's food with a note attached! )

On National Coffee Day, we are reminded that anyone in this day and age can establish whatever celebration he pleases, so long as he has a Facebook account and a few friends with a bit of time to kill.

But they're not all merely frivolous: some are downright backward, like October 16's Boss's Day, or bafflingly unnecessary (e.g. Sandwich Day, Nov. 3rd - was ever there an object that required less public celebration?).

Suddenly parsnip day doesn't seem so very foolish. At least it was only a name, not a command.

Call me crazy but this actually caught my attention. I have to admit I'm curious.

Yes, Jaina and Anakin feel free to roll your eyes and pretend you don't know me.

I didn't say I was going, I just said I was curious.

[Filter: Starfleet]

This is hilarious and disturbing both at the same time.

In my spare time I have undertaken the project of attempting to replicate the voice command system that we used on the Enterprise. It has been a pleasant challenge as the computer systems in existence in this time are significantly inferior to the ones I am used to using. Needless to say, the first step in the project is to upgrade the computers to use trinary code so I fear the completion of this project may take some time. Nevertheless, it is a pleasant challenge that serves as an adequate way to pass the time it takes the existing computers to run programs and simulations.

Have you given any further thought to moving out? Has the arrival of Doctor McCoy altered your opinion at all?

[/Filter]

The weekend is a few days away so I thought I'd see if anyone is up to going shopping this weekend with me? I need some warmer clothes and I want to get a costume for Halloween!

Expect the unexpected. Much like Starfleet in that way though we didn't have food making us sick (I thankfully missed that one), doors opening into wrong rooms and fictional characters becoming real though there was time travel. I suppose when you think about it like that this place isn't that odd?

Still I find myself having settled in as much as I can and am now looking for a job to earn myself some money. I'm looking at something in the sciences though I don't know if I want to go into SHIELD or work for a private company. Does anyone have any thoughts on this matter?

Usagi

I find myself remiss in thanking you for the tour the other week. I enjoyed it a lot and would love to see you again at some point.

[Starfleet]

So, you know how pornography is like a substitute for sex?

This is kind of like that.
