The Doorway: a panfandom game

My Dad didn't just text you or anything, did he?

How's it going?

What's your favourite Adele song?

Heads up, team. The Staten Island ferry has been attacked by a pack of goblin sharks. We need to mobilise immediately. The people on board the ferry and the island need to be evacuated as quickly as possible. We will need to coordinate with another team in order to speed up the process, so I've invited the Fantastic Avengers to join us.

[FANTASTIC AVENGERS*]

My team-mates and I are heading out to evacuate the Staten Island ferry and whoever's stranded on the island still. Would you all like to join us? The more people there are, the less time it will take.

You want to go fight a dinosaur?

Cher just live tweeted her way through eating a box of peeps.

The world should be more like Cher.

The man who fell to earth finally went home today.

What can I even say about David Bowie? He changed everything. He probably influenced music more than any other artist of his generation, even the Beatles. There was no man like him. The world is different -- better -- for having David Bowie in it. I guess on some level, I thought he'd always be there.

I honestly don't know if I'm emotionally ready to listen to Blackstar yet.

There's going to be a David Bowie memorial concert at Carnegie Hall on March 31st.

It's not the same, because nothing will ever be the same. But I'm going. For any of you who want to join, tickets are on me.

Except you, Hawkeye. You owe me like $40,000.

Who: The whole game!

Because this game is massive, and even if every character just sent ONE package to anyone, it would end up being so many posts that it would overrun the game. So to save our friends lists from imploding, we the moderators are asking that you fill out this form and reply HERE. It'll make it easier to find (Control-F is a lovely thing!) and we won't have to abuse our scroll button. Here's how we're going to do it. You will post for one character with everything that they got for their friends/family/etc. Make sure to tag your character and all the characters that yours gave gifts to as soon as you get their information up! In recognition of the time it can take to determine IC gifts, (properly tagged) gifts can count as a piece of activity for the gifting character for the month of December. <b>Character name:</b> Name! <b>GIFTS:</b> • <b>Giftee:</b> Present. • <b>Giftee:</b> Present. • <b>Giftee:</b> Present. • <b>Giftee:</b> Present. • <b>Giftee:</b> Present.

Is there some sort of Thanksgiving version of Santa Claus who strikes you with the stomach flu the day before Thanksgiving if you've been bad this year?

Is this because I said Christopher Columbus was an asshole?

Isn't is strange the way we can see something we've seen a thousand times, or read something we've read before -- and suddenly, because of our circumstances or situation, what was familiar seems new and different. Any experience, even the most mundane, is never exactly the same twice, but sometimes it's so remarkably different it stands out as extraordinary.

( not filtered. Just lots of words. )

Just when you thought you'd seen everything...

Firstly, I'd like to give my compliments to S.W.O.R.D. I've endured enough trips like this one to know that it rarely goes this smoothly. The warm welcome and explanation of events has been beyond helpful and I am beyond grateful to have their hand in making sure I hit the ground with both boots firmly planted.

Secondly, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Steve Rogers. I've been told I'm a bit of a frequent visitor here, which hardly seems outside the realm of unreasonable these days. Unfortunate as it is, and is all too common as of lateI have no memory of these trips. To those of you whom I may have built ties with, I welcome you to reach out as soon as you feel comfortable so we might start the process of bridge building over again.

Lastly
I look forward to our time together and getting to experience a whole new version of New York City. I don't suppose anybody's got good news about the Dodgers here?

I have always had a strong admiration for healers, mages or otherwise, because I have neither the skill or aptitude for their arts. So I must say the advances this place has has again impressed me. I've certainly walked away with more information.

My greetings to you,

I am Evelyn and I come to you from a recommendation from Dr.Jane Foster, who has informed me that you build something called prosthetics. As I have lost my arm, I was wondering if I might ask for an appointment to speak of one of the prosthetics you build. I also have a few questions about them, the most prevalent of them if they could be used to cast magic? If such a thing is impossible, the mere idea that I could regain lost mobility is more then enough for me.

I thank you greatly for considering the possibility of an appointment and I pray the Maker keep you in good health.

[Cullen]

The technology here, they could perhaps give me my arm back. Perhaps not as it was, but they have a thing called prosthetics here. If I get an appointment with the person who could perhaps get me one will you come? One of the clinics doctors is also coming with but I'd like it if you were there too.

I believe this is for you and your boyfriend:

Yes, full interior detailing was absolutely necessary. And you both know very well why.

I'm sorry I could only carry one of you inside without the suit. I hope Barnes slept all right on the lawn. It got pretty cold last night, but I imagine he's used to that sort of thing?

God bless inflation.

I made an offer on the apartment above ours. I don't know what we'll do with it, but I don't think it really matters. Apparently 1941 is a hell of a buyer's market.

I was thinking about doing the same thing with the building in FiDi. At these prices, we could afford to lose money on this for a while.

How fast can we push this through?

First, water on mars. Now, Twitter is laying off staff and scaling back. It's like as soon as we get a handle on something these days, it becomes irrelevant.

What are the kids even using these days. And isn't Taylor Swift so good at Instagram that the rest of us just shouldn't even try?

With being in the Star Wars Shakespeare play, I've gotten to wondering if my old energy shield could have stopped a lightsaber blade. Sadly it got destroyed back home but still. It makes me curious if the shield would stop the blade or not.

You still got that Texas-shaped waffle iron?

Just a reminder from the science side of the network that tonight's impending lunar eclipse is a completely normal phenomenon that happens all the time and signifies absolutely nothing. "Blood moon" sounds very ancient and mystical and spiritual but is a bit of contemporary gibberish pasted together out of scattered Bible verses by some crazy apocalyptic preachers.

To clarify:

1) it's only a "blood moon" if you're being ridiculous,
2) if the world ends it definitely won't be over something this stupid, and
3) you're all going to be fine.

Now I know that keeping up with trends can take a toll on a person's pocketbook. But I will admit I never thought Memes would become quite so expensive.
