This place is rather fascinating, well, as fascinating as any place can be that really is no place that I know of at all. And, I suppose, as fascinating as any place really can be.

The buildings are taller than the tallest trees of Middle Earth. Imagine! If I did not know better, I would believe that all the wizards of old had come through to here as well to create such tall buildings.

That being said, I am working on a beginning to my story. How should it go? I had something fairly clever written before, but in the excitement of coming here, I seem to have forgotten the words precisely. It will be called, A Hobbit's Tale: There and Back Again. Has quite a ring to it, though, I am not certain who will ever eventually read it. At least I do have a title.

Dwellings here are so much different than a hobbit hole. Hmm, maybe that is how it should start. "A hobbit hole is such a simple dwelling. Homely and safe, built neatly within the hills of the Shire..." Does sound a bit wordy to me, though. Ah, it will come to me, I imagine, some time soon. I had something clever noted down before.

In the meanwhile, I'm afraid I may be burning through my weed a bit faster than I anticipated. It's a shame no other hobbit is here, as they would more than likely have some with them. Legolas? Fili or Kili? Either of you have anything to smoke from home? May help clear my head to think a bit on how to start the tale again.

I amar prestar aen. A starry sky brought low to greet the earth. I cannot say whether it comforts me, for I scarcely see the path for which I walk, but it is beautiful. Your forest of hollow metal is not so glaring in this dark.

But there are many travelers here. Le suilon! To whom do you hail leader?

What: Someone has to make sure that someone is still alive.

Many congratulations to both victors in today's tournament, and to Shale in particular, who proved herself to be a worthy adversary. My uncle would have liked you, I'm certain of it. And to the other participants, I hope you enjoyed yourselves as much as I did. You all did a fine job, you should be proud.

We ought to celebrate, Shale. Who would like to join us? Tauriel, your presence is required.

[Accidental Voice Post by Bilbo Baggins]

Hello? Hello?

I'm not quite certain how this is working, but I have this device here and am going to try it. They told me that we were in a completely different world, but it is quite fascinating. And what is this that we are speaking? It doesn't sound anything like elfish or dwarfish or any other language of Middle Earth.

I've been told there might be some others from Middle Earth here...are there? I'm Bilbo, Bilbo Baggins.

You know the grander your parties the more I enjoy Midgard.

This new year doesn't seem very different from the last, so far as I can tell. But I still don't entirely understand the way this city or this world works.

I got my bow just before Christmas.

Yes. This makes sense.

I am to understand that humans have built shelters of stone for themselves and communicate only from within those shelters. Perhaps thus they are less apt to be squished. Or set aflame. Or squished and then set aflame and then skewered upon poisoned spikes and eaten.

And it does keep the birds out.

It has been a hard year that has seen much loss, for me and for my home, but again I am struck by how grateful I am to be able to spend the holidays here, among people I love. And hard years make way for good ones. I believe that.

For anyone who lent Asgard their sword in last year's battles, my thanks are eternal. Seek me out and I'll treat you to drink or food - or just my company, if that suffice.

ACCIDENTAL VOICE-TO-TEXT starring Kili and Tauriel.

-- everything so small. How can they even read this?

Everything's small to you. Maybe men have better eyesight than we thought?

Perhaps everything in this world is unnatural.

Not everything. I saw trees! At least I think I did.

You think you saw trees.

I'm fairly certain it was a tree of some sort. I'll show you, just as soon as we sort this out.

There is a strange light blinking in and out. Do you see it?

Wha-- oh, there it is. Who turned that on?

Here. You take it.

What? Why me?

I thought you might have more luck.

What am I supposed to do with it?

The writing looks closer to dwarvish.

If I knew what any of it meant, we'd be well on our way to supper already. Your hands are daintier. You fix it.

They are not. My hands have seen more battles than yours.

Oh yes how could I forget, everyone's seen more battles than me.

You're angry.

There's a lot to be angry about.

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
