The tesseract is real funny. I mean, thanks to it for sending me Constantine's sword. I missed it. I worked damn hard it enough for it after all and it's actually useful.

But sending me the damn Eye? The real one? What the hell am I supposed to do with that thing? I'm sure as hell not donating my remaining good eye to it.

At least it hasn't started talking to me again.

I've had weird dreams before and I've had disturbing ones as well - though dreaming about falling next to parachuting cheeseburgers pretty much takes the cake - but I've never slept or dreamed deeply enough to not wake up when someone came into my room. Thief's privilege really. Sleep lightly or get arrested one night.

So who the hell managed to sneak into my room and tie those balloon to my bedside table?

So. These tracker things we all had taken out of us. Anyone know if they're still transmitting? Or if the signal is still being received anywhere? I've been laying false trails for the last few days and I want to know if I can leave off or if I need to come up with a more permanent solution.

Figured you might be the best one to give me a decent read on the situation.

Is it worth coming back to the building?

So. Mr. Wisdom's here. Welcome to Earth 2.0 or whatever version it is. Hurrah.

Of course, I thought I'd better try to do something that I once considered mundane, and I turned on the telly. True to form, I was confronted with all new things going pear-shaped and bloody ticker tape ticking along with the sort of news and conjecture that made me want to throw everything out the window. Without the benefit of opening the window first. What the bloody, bloody hell.

Forget all of the cold turkey rubbish. I've gotten hold of a pack and I'm going to smoke every single one. One right after the other. And then perhaps I'll stub them out on my face while I laugh hysterically like an absolute nutter.

Why? Because I can. That's why.

I watched those Hobbit movies and saw why people keep calling me Thorin. I like him. He's an ass but I like him anyway. And the things I could have done with a ring like that. That thing is a thief's dream.

So. Those vampires that everyone's been getting their knickers in a twist about lately. Do they happen to look a bit weird round the forehead and eye area? Sort of... scrunchy?

Someone called me Thorin the other day. What's that about?

And yeah, I'd look it up myself but I'm three quarters of the way up one of the spires of the big cathedral here in Manhattan so it's easier to do it this way.

Apparently they don't particularly like you climbing the outside of the Statue of Liberty. Who knew!

All this talk about peoples' shows got me curious and I looked myself up. Apparently there's another version of me. A more recent one. Though I can't seem to work out whether he actually is me or my descendent or just a version of me. His story is different though. No Keepers, no Woodsie Lord, no Viktoria, no Karras, no Hammerites, no Mechanists. Bastard doesn't even lose an eye, just gets it changed in some way.

He's still got a Basso though and could still steal all your possessions from under your nose without you knowing so I guess he's alright. Might have to get the game and see if I can figure out how to play it. Just for the fun of it.

Think I might just keep to the rooftops and shadows until this person everyone's kicking up a fuss about is caught or dead. If the Haunts couldn't catch me, don't reckon he will.

Got a fun job this weekend. Company I work for wants me to break into this rich merchant's apartment and steal everything that isn't nailed down to test his security. Just like old times except I have to give everything I steal back. Get to test some new gadgets though, designed to beat these mechanical and electrical things used here. If they work, I get to keep those so it's a win in the end.

Had my first job the other day. It went pretty well. You might have moved away from good solid wood beam construction and torches here but the company have been pretty good about adapting my arrows to something that'll work. The moss arrows are stumping them though. Anyone know someone who's good at tinkering with gadgets and whatnot? Those moss arrows are going to be even more important here with all these metal and other non-wood surfaces. Not sure I like that. Feels unnatural. But shadows are shadows here just as they are at home and no one can disappear into a shadow like I can.

Managed to find a job that isn't going to make me gouge my eyes out after a few weeks. Security firm hired me. One of their people had played my game, which is damn weird but it meant he knew what I could do. They want me to break into places to find all the holes in the security so they can be fixed up. By me mostly. Which will be interesting. If I fix the holes, no one's ever going to get in. Reckon I'll be earning some of those big bonuses they were waving around.

If anyone is interested the New York Public Library for the performing arts has an exhibition about the Beatles through May 10.

And as usual for new arrivals - if you need help catching up on decades, or centuries, let me know. I can get you set up with a library card and help find you some books that I've bookmarked as most helpful for people coming in from other times and places.

How are things going?

I don't suppose you want to come over this evening and talk vampires over a game of Risk?


[Filter: Floors 7 & 8]
Just checking in with all of you to see if anyone needs anything. We've had a few new arrivals and a few departures and I was wondering about the notion of a floor party - get together, get to know who is new on the floor.

If you're interested I'll see about setting up a time.

Being blindfolded and carted around in some strange machine is not what I'd call a welcome to anywhere. Can't say I'm too fond of being surrounded by so many machines either. Just tell me there aren't any mechanical servants in this place? Because if there are, I'm out of here. I just destroyed a bunch that were designed to kill every person in the city. I'm not doing that again, especially if I'm not being paid and can't steal anything.

I'm Garrett, by the way.

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
