So, um. Bonjour, I s'pose.

You all probably know me - I'm Remy LeBeau, apparently y'all call me Gambit, too. But the thing is, I ain't technically met none of you yet.

I been having the dreams, just like everybody, and just recently, I dreamt that M'am Ororo get me inducted into your group. Obviously means I ain't up on everything right now, but at least I know what I am. Scott was kind enough to fill me in on some of it.

I want to know everything you all can toss at me. If I slept with anybody, if I pissed you off, if I done anything good or bad. I remember my life up til now, but after joining? Blank slate. So I'm counting on you. Right now I'm just wanting to know tous les choses so I can look after me and my girl.

Thank you. A lot. And I hope I ain't made any enemies among you.

My therapist said I should

I thought I should check this thing out. Hello folks.

So, someone stuck a post-it note to the bulletin at the diner and all it said was Valarnet. And being the curious person that I am, I decided to check this out. I don't know why, but I was expecting one of those lame, fantasy games or some bizarre porn site, so this is a surprise. Kind of a let down really. But whatever.

Anyway, I'm Max Black.

I forgot just how many cars there are in California, and how little people walk or rely on themselves to do just about anything. Every time something goes wrong the first thing people do is blame technology. Or someone else. It's never their own fault, as if responsibly died out with the Do Do Bird. And don't even get me started on the way people treat animals in first world countries.

It all makes me really miss the jungle.

But then I remember my brother's house has indoor plumbing and suddenly I'm right back on the bandwagon. Also, ordering a pint of ice cream for delivery? Totally worth commercialism.

Kids these days have the WRONG KIND OF DRAMA!

Well, in their lives! Less relationship drama... MORE RELATIONSHIPS OF CHARACTERS DRAMA AND DEATH AND TRAGEDY AND HEARTBREAK!

JOIN MY THEATRE GROUP OKAY! IT IS DOUBLE FUN THAN ALL OTHER THINGS!

I think the stress of everything that's going on with my parents is catching up to me. I fell asleep on Jubilee's the couch and dreamt that my dad was training me, but it wasn't gymnastics. He was training me to fight; like karate and stuff. I was pretty young too. Younger than when I started gymnastics, but I'm pretty sure it lasted a few years, cause as the dream progressed I got older. I was really good too. He had me fight against full grown men and I took them down every time. How is that possible for a kid? At one point I seemed pretty upset about something and I ran away. I was still pretty young when I ran away, but I don't know why. The other weird thing is that I never said a word during the whole dream. It was like I was mute or something.

I'm gonna try to go back to sleep.

But before I forget, Violet, Thea, we should get together and talk about the club sometime.

I have to wonder what it is that causes those strange dreams people always talk about on here. It's rather... unusually localised. I suppose I can't blame Diana's theatrics

Okay, so... three picture frames in my house have broken glass. And some books fell off the shelf. Must have happened sometime over night, I think, since I definitely didn't leave a mess in my living room before I went to bed. Rory? You didn't knock things over in your sleep, did you?

Did I miss an earthquake?

[ooc: plot!]

Link, I think I saw your ghost. Looks like she's not confined to your house. Reminds me of something I saw on the beach when I was

Private to Dean
You haven't had any dreams yet, have you?

...we should look into this ghost girl thing.

[ooc: plot!]

I'm new. Introducing myself.

I'm bored. I could use some entertainment.

Alright, so. It would appear daily watching of Dr. Oz is extremely helpful when working on a paper about alternative medicines. Now I know about cancer prevention! And allergies to aspirin. And Chinese medicine.

....I wonder how one would test allergies to aspirin, that seems like it could end really badly. Luckily, I'm pretty sure I'm not. Also, if anyone ever laughs at me for inspecting my tongue, I'm going to tell them I'm an advocate of ancient Chinese medicine, and the tongue is the map of the body. So there.

Anyway. Alternative medicine! Give me things to research, guys! It'll be helpful for this paper.

Why do some people insist on getting so drunk before boarding an aircraft? I mean seriously? They may have let you past check-in but there is no way you are getting onto my plane and harassing my staff when you smell like a brewery and can barely walk straight.



Oh, yeah, I guess I should introduce myself. I'm Serafina, newly settling in OC after a promotion. I'm a Cabin Crew Supervisor so if any of you travel you may have seen me. Or not. I mean there are lots of airlines. But anyway, that's me.

Does anyone see things from their dreams when they're awake?

Well, eating two day old pizza before dinner didn't bring on the weird dreams.

Anyone else got ideas?

Oh man, today was awesome! I thought nobody would show up, but it was really steady all day! I haven't been so tired and excited at the same time since, well, ever. It's a weird combination.

I sold almost all my hats. I'm so happy about that, you guys have no idea. Thank you, weird California weather, for making people buy sunhats in February. A lot of the pots are gone too, and I will have some very happy people coming to restock the place tomorrow. I think it's actually going to be okay, and I won't be a total failure and have to go back to school for my PhD just to not pay my loans off.

Having a Superbowl party at my place tomorrow. I know it's late notice, but my brothers just told me they're coming. So I need to impress them with some friends, yeah?

Phase one of Operation Cajun Dork is now complete. Remy LeBeau is now for the Horde, and knows what DoTs are. Phase two is secret and under wraps, but I'll let you know how it progresses.
