I've been baking since early this morning, before the sun was up. I spent a lot of the funds they gave me on this but I think it's worth it. I'll be baking for the next several days as I get time. Would anyone like some of my mini pies?

Picture not filtered, under cut )

I have cherry, blueberry, apple, and peach.

Today is a day for Mothers. I do not know my own mother. I have heard very little of her, as she left me when I was very young with my uncle. I saw how other mothers treated their own children, and while it was a hard life in our village - they still cared for them.

I hope one day, I will learn more about her. And my father.

Network Post; Eragon

My name is Eragon.

I come from a land that the people wearing uniforms says does not exist, and yet they recognized me. One remarked that I had been here before. I have been given my old belongings in a box. There are items here that look like clothing and yet look nothing that I would wear.

I am sharing a home with someone named Peter Pettigrew.

To anyone who knew me, hello.

So my magical duel partner sort of disappeared. Well no really duel, more like practice. And I mean Mister Xavier is still here but I mean it's not really exactly the same. Sure no one else uses Egyptian words of power or... any Egyptian magic outside me and Bast, but it was still pretty neat. Plus Molly was way better at invisibility than me or Carter so there's that.

Also I think I need to find a place to buy wax.

Just because there's no House of Life here doesn't mean there couldn't be one like... founded or something, right? There's more than enough chaos here, even if it's not Apophis. The House of Life did way more than that.

So, this whole fighting crime thing. I think that there are a few other kids like us that could probably be pretty good at it, given where they're from and all.

I mean we can't be the only ones that feel like we're not being used at all, right?

Network Post; Eragon

Hello. I am Eragon. I have seen tell on this that there are people who use magic. In my world, I had been learning magic through the use of the ancient language of my world. I can summon fire to strike my enemies with a word. I can float a rock.

Is there anyone who has similar magic abilities here? Someone who could further my studies?

Hey everyone!

I’m Kitty Pryde. With the unfortunate loss of Susan Sto Helit a few days ago, I talked to SHIELD about taking over for her at the Educational Services Division, or ESD from now on to make it easier. I’ve been teaching there on my off time, but I gave my two weeks notice to SHIELD to focus solely on this. She left behind impeccable records and I’m going to do my best to keep her vision alive.

I look forward to getting to know everyone in the division soon, but for right now I’m going to need basic facts to move from here. There needs to be some reorganization with the loss of students and teachers, so what I need is all of the teachers and advisors to sign in. Reply to this post to restate you still want to be involved. Advisors, I need you in particular to reply so we can talk about your current students and work load. This is also the place for any new people to offer their services if they have experience teaching. We have an amazing group of students here.

Also if anyone over eighteen wants to sign up for some of our advanced and creative courses, since boy do we have a lot of them, please feel free to do so.

Students I would appreciate replies here too to talk about your classes and advisors and any feedback you have right now. Feel free to filter anything you want to me if you don’t feel comfortable talking in public, and I’d be happy to meet with anyone privately too. I know this has to be a big collaborative effort and I’m looking forward to jumping into the deep end here.

I’m afraid I might be clogging up the network for people in the division over the next week as we work out the details, but I hope everyone can bear with me.

[ooc: there will be an ooc post after this with more depth, but please do reply with your characters officially IC here]

Cut for video of an ice-climber who falls 100 feet )

In our ice climbing course, we are taught what to do if we slip or fall, but even so, teaching can only go so far. The rest depends on training and experience - and solid ice to stab an axe into. Given my relative inexperience with climbing, I think it's a good decision to move to other activities now that the weather is growing warmer.

Thank you for the sailing lesson this morning. It has been a long time since I have had the chance to be on the deck of a ship. It reminded me much of the home I had as a child.

I've given more thought to what we discussed this weekend, and my sentiment still stands. I am not used to living on my own, so if you are still interested, perhaps we can put in a request to move into an apartment we can share.

We have had several departures and arrivals over the past few weeks. This has unbalanced workloads Significantly. If you are feeling overworked or underutilised, please let me know.

Welcome, new arrivals.

I am Susan Sto Helit, Headmistress of the SHIELD Educational Services Division. You may address me as Miss Susan.

Within the week, your Advisor should contact you to discuss your academic interests and help you determine what coursework or school situation will be most appropriate for you. They will then assist you with enrolling in classes. If you would like to review the Course List ahead of time, it is located here. Please also note that for those who wish to pursue a more conventional educational path, we do have agreements with a few local schools to allow our students to attend.

For those of you who are not new here: please attempt to be friendly to the new arrivals. Introduce yourselves, tell them when Movie Night in the Youth Center is, et cetera.

Anyone with further questions, concerns, issues, or complaints may feel free to address them with me or with your advisor.

Sincere regards,
Susan Sto Helit
Headmistress

Thank you very much for the company and brandy on Friday. It truly was just the thing. We should do it again sometime. If you would like, we should do it again in the future.

Hello? This is how this magic works? The man told me to introduce myself. I am Eragon of Carvahall. I have been told that my dragon, Saphira, is not here. I have also been told not to use magic here for a period of time to adjust.

This place... this New York, is much larger than anything I have ever seen, though I have seen little except Teirm. I am living with someone named Percy Jackson. I will be pleased to meet you and have a better reaction to you than those I first met.

The man also asked if someone can continue my teaching in reading? It has been nearly a month since Brom taught me, and the runes are unfamiliar to me.

Thank you.

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
