Is there anybody here keeping track of what's going on? Are we keeping track of refugee stories and experiences in this world, aside from this network, I mean?

I've never known of anything like this to happen in the history of the Earth that I come from. If this experience is as unique as I think that it is, it's definitely worth documenting-- especially since we don't know when people come or go.

Coming from the perspective of an anthropologist, that is. So, that goes to say that I've gotten my hands on some video equipment, and if you want to go on the record about your experiences here, I'd be happy to listen to what you have to say.

Anyone who's been in my apartment over the last few months has seen the map of Africa I have up on the wall. I've been been doing a lot of research since I got here, trying to pinpoint the exact locations I've been, trying to figure out how similar the continent is to the one I spent so much time on all those thousands of years ago. It's slow progress relying upon other people's photographs of the area and not being able to go there myself, but I'm making progress. If I'm here long enough to be able to afford a trip to Tanzania (since from what I can tell, that's about where we landed), I'm going to go, but I think that's a long way off.

Ngorongoro Conservation Area would probably be at the top of the list. Next up would be climbing Kilimanjaro.

Wishful thinking.

The beaches weren't bad either.

I'm beginning to think I miss most... the one woman I never thought I would.

A question for the new year:

Is there anybody else here that's supposed to be dead?

I haven't seen my movie yet, but others have told me about it, and death by way of poisoning and flamethrower immolation is much more exotic than I would have imagined for myself, even on a moon light-years away from earth.

I used your money to buy supplies for the building site.

I am very drunk and it isn't yet noon so I'm going to tell you a story. Then, I am going to get a whole gallon of coffee because Helo, I don't want to bounce a hammer off your head when we go to be charitable. I'm sure it wouldn't hurt you TOO bad but, you see, I'm working on this "third time's a charm thing". So, the story.

Once upon a time there was a little girl who thought that she was very good at being a very good little girl but when all the good got beat out of her, she clung to this or that or whatever as any good girl does.

She could fly. She could love flying. She could love everything (and that was her problem, loving everything and not knowing how to distinguish this or that) and since it was so close to hate, she could shroud herself in it and nobody knew the difference. She set herself at a pin's fee, anyway, and it was fine.

Then, there came this destiny. And it's been talked about (in this world: ad nauseum) but she died, she came back, she disappeared. Though she didn't know how or why, she was okay because so much had happened and she was so tired and most importantly, she fulfilled her destiny. Her friends were home and she could rest.

Now this rest was not real rest at all. There was light (the sun; so hot), there was this hard pull in her gut whenever she felt lonely -- because no one was there -- and so she decided, when that curious blue light appeared before her, that she would touch (but not really touch, she hadn't had a body in hours or days or eons) it. So, she did. Then she saw her friends and the people she loved again.

I woke up on the Prometheus yesterday, and today I woke up in the middle of New York City.

Now all I need to do is figure out which scenario's reality and which one's an experimental substance-induced hallucination gone wrong, and then I can get on with the day.

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
