Well, at least my country is not going to hit the self-destruct button come Friday. But I'm still fairly certain Parliament will find a way to hit it before the new 31 October deadline. This is one of the times I hate having a government job. Though at least I'm not a bloody politician.

I just visibly flinched at a Planet of the Apes 4 trailer. And not just because it looks terrible, stupid Dreams.

[Siltes]
You busy?

[Jemma]
I've had some more dreams, about my powers..

Man, you haven't seen anything until you've seen the looks on everyone's faces when you come into work carrying a car battery that's attached to an electromagnet that's mysteriously strapped to your chest. "Mr. Stark, are you okay?" Yeah, sure, I'm fine. It's just a car battery and an electromagnet. Can we all just chillax already?

Also I look like I was just in a brawl with a broken glass window and someone's fists, which is interesting seeing as I actually did not do any partying last night.

I feel like I need to be on an episode of "When Dreams Attack". Also - dream me definitely had to be zapped back into existence, so do I get a jacket now?

Private to Pidge
So yeah, you were looking for proof, I woke up with your proof attached to my chest. Want to come in and see this sometime soon? I'll even let you touch it. Just not too much, because I've discovered that if I move it around too far it puts me into cardiac arrest.

This is absolutely shameful. Teenagers should not have to get vaccinations in secret because their parents don't grasp basic science. Or fact check them about vaccines.

Are you kidding me right now? I finally get one of those things that I THINK are the dreams, but it's basically my childhood all over again. There are really only a few changes. Come ON.

Valarnet, I was robbed. Your dream phenomenon is robbing me. I demand strange dreams with weird shit where spiders bite me or frost dragons attack people.

Just when we thought we got rid of the face that betrayed us, he has another Earth-2 counterpart. So now I get to look at the face of the man responsible for my nightmares and killing me again but can't do anything about it. We apparently have to work with him because he knows something about Zoom that we don't.

Every night now it seems like I'm getting dreams. Now there's a new meta in town from another Earth calling herself Dr. Light. Our other baddie Zoom is forcing her to create havoc on our Earth because of the breach between our worlds. Got a bad feeling this is going to be a trend.

The Dreams just keep getting weirder and weirder..Now we have a metahuman called FireStorm who is this old professor who was caught up in the blast of the particle accelerator..again my bad, who needs to find a willing young person to "merge" with to survive and occasionally burst into flame due to his abilities. I'm pretty sure I live in a comic book. Only less fun. Basically we narrowed down participants and pitched becoming a super hero. One guy actually didn't want to. Who doesn't want to? I mean aside from me but

Anyway, I think this is the first time in an age I've been happy to see Monday. I'm ready to get back to work.

[Agency]
What'd I miss?

[Natasha]
Any chance I can increase hours I'm at the agency?

[Jemma]
Any projects you've got? I miss projects.

I have had a few more dreams now. While a lot if it is exactly the life I had back home, there are some differences. Mainly the connection I share with seven other people. Which can either be inconvenient like when I visited Wolfgang while he was engaged in intercourse, or quite fun.

Is there someone here who may be able to help me put the pieces of my spaceship together? I think I have all the pieces of it, but I'm no engineer. It's not a huge spaceship, it's actually a fighter-class single pilot kind of ship as opposed to a large starship.


[Encrypted DM to Jemma Simmons]

I have a question for you, if you have a minute.

Getting real tired of watching people I care about die in these Dreams, yet Dream me seems unphased..I think we just keep going so fast, nothing's kicked in...We saved the city, but my friend and colleague died a second time in the process.. the hero I work for decided to break up the team because we lost a couple teammates when a singularity opened above our city threatening to tear it apart. A freak black hole and he blames himself for it. My friend The Flash I mean. A super hero.

In the mean time I've become a scientific advisory for the police department, and I gotta admit that's..kinda cool. I do all this work for the department, but the captain still won't give me a badge. Stingy.

The Mayor apparently wanted to throw a Flash Day in appreciation and give Barry the key to the city, but he won't even return my calls. You know, every time someone tries to throw one of these 'X Hero days' something always goes wrong, didn't we learn anything from Spider-Man? Right on que it gets attacked, my friend rushes off to save it on his own and gets his ass handed to him. Turns out he blames himself for the city practically being torn apart, but we all take that blame. We were all apart of it. The city will fix itself, Central City is resilient. It's what we do, we rebuild and move on. It's all we can do.

[Jemma]
Wells confirmed that I was affected along with the other metas in my city the night that the Particle Accelerator blew and gave everyone powers..I don't get him, he tells me not to be afraid but then tells me they're a curse? In the dreams I mean..we caught on and now he's living out the rest of his days in containment. So I guess something came of it.

My neighbors already have their Christmas lights up.

Would it be epic or obnoxious to put up a giant inflatable Menorah this year?

Alright, so I'm settled into an apartment (thank you again, Clara, it's much appreciated!), and I even managed to land a job all before Thanksgiving. Go me! Or something. So now it's back to attempting to be a responsible adult and all of that. Which is boring, if you ask me, but a girl's gotta make a living. And at some point I gotta stop running

I'd consider throwing a house warming party, but I only know like, five people here. That's not much of a party scene so much as a friendly dinner.

I wish I'd put more of a buffer zone between me and my family when I moved to Orange County from L.A. I don't really have a good excuse not to show up for Dia De Los Muertos dinner tonight. What a crappy way to end the week.

These dreams have suddenly become less fun. Less about my best friend and I saving the city with his super powers and my tech. Turns out being a super hero team is not all that fun. The man we might have been trusting all this time with our lives, the man who's been building us up all this time to be better, the man who called me his son.. is a snake in disguise. He might be a fraud. The facts don't add up when I'm with him. I don't want to believe it.. He had a hand in the murder of my best friends mother, and now I'm not sure what to believe.

It's so damn complicated not feeling these things.

Anyone ever build something they weren't supposed to build?..Like..subconscious building?..God I sound like a crazy person.

[Agency filter]
I think I may have just built something potentially bad.

[Stiles]
Raincheck on hanging out? There's something I need to do first.

Hi, I'm Skye and I'm not an addict but I almost feel like I should be given what I'm reading on here. Damn, just when you think you've seen the weirdest shit on the internet, you get proven wrong. Is there something in the water here? Because if there is, I totally don't want to drink it.

Everything sane-ish again? Maybe working full time has its advantages. I wasn't hit by..whatever that was.

[Natasha and Jemma Filter]
Any chance I can come by an see your facility before making a decision?

I am officially gainfully employed again. May I never have to go through interviewing processes again. Or at least any time soon.

Well, that was an experience. For the first time in a long time, my dreams returned. I'd found some refuge in Bucharest where I was beginning to piece my memories and life back together, the ones that Hydra stole from me. But that was all shot to hell, quite literally, when Steve Rogers showed up and brought a bunch of people trying to kill me along with him. I swear, Steve has the worst sense of timing ever. And the worst sense of fun. I just wanted some plumbs, man!

So far all these dreams have done is made me feel more alone than ever. Thanks Dreams. In them, I have friends who are more like family. Here.. I don't know how to have that. Nobody named Barry Allen has shown up have they? Or Caitlin Snow?

[Anakin]
Hey. This might seem weird, but wanna do something? The internet is great and all but I think I've hidden behind it so long I forgot how friendship works.

I actually got a decent camera now, and I could swear my girlfriend is a model.

( Cut for image, viewable to all )

I think I'm an alien.

I mean, I'm human, but the Chozo injected me with their DNA, and raised me as one of their own. My armor is a Chozo design. In my dreams I understand Chozo culture better than human culture.

This morning I woke up disoriented, the bed too soft.

Is there a... way to check and see if I've actually been altered?

Well, it is nice to know that Daisy and I seemed to come up with the same cover story on how we were the only ones to come through the monolith to the future once it was learned I wasn't the only one who did so. Now if this thing would just I'm still worried about what's going to come next given the fact that they sell Inhumans to the highest bidders to become killers and some massive gala about to happen.

So after waiting to see how the latest cliffhanger is resolved..... not only have we ended up in space because of yet another monolith, but we are now apparently in the future as well. Because of course we are, why not.

I feel it's strangely ironic that I am fending off these bizarre bunnies in my 'cat' suit. I'm sure Falcon would be amused.

Sometimes this whole dream thing can backfire. Anyone ever have an experience of dreaming of other people, then you sit down to, say, watch a television show or something and you see someone who looks exactly like someone from your dreams but it's not and then that show is ruined for you? Yeah, totally had that experience.

I haven't had any new dreams since the whole mutant deportation debacle, which left off on a kind of cliffhanger because of course it did.

So I know more is coming and it's probably going to be bad because it always is, but I don't know when or what will happen.

I think I've passed anxiety into acceptance.

I never in my life thought I’d be saying this but - books can have sex. I had to go track down a book that was missing from the campus library. The easiest way to do that was to take it’s companion volume with Quentin and I. It led us to a hedge witches safe house and while I was tracking down the missing book - and then trying to ignore the rather enthusiastic reunion going on behind me - Quentin was talking to his old friend Julia. I don’t trust that girl for some reason

Well with the sun back in place thank goodness, besides the random snow (?) in 80* weather, things appear back to as normal as they get here. Also for concerns about the water, rest assured it has been tested and shows no signs of contamination or poison and is again drinkable/useable.

As someone with an interest in space and a degree in astrophysics, I thought this was pretty damn cool.

No matter what I eat or how much of it I'm starving. This is getting hard on my paycheck.

I'm discovering I don't handle break ups well.

All I wanted for my day off was a 4 patty cheeseburger and catching up on netflix.

...Apparently. Instead I got bombarded by dreams and I'm more tired now than I was before "sleep". Dream me was in a coma for nine months apparently and now I just feel sluggish and gross in the real world. I can barely stay awake. Typing on my phone is hard. Everything in me just wants to sleep forever.

Over the last few days I've had this irrational anger towards my sister. I say it's irrational because she didn't do anything here other than decide to move back to England and I'm definitely not mad at her about that. It's what happened in the dreams, which isn't even her fault either. There was no way she could have known that the LEDA DNA came from Mrs. S's mother. I'm just upset that it means her, Mrs. S and Kira are actually related and I feel like I'm on the sidelines. I was so angry at them in the dreams that I even went so far as to try and find my birth family cause I felt like there was no longer any place for me with them.

All I want for New Years is people to stay out of my damn lab. If you aren't qualified, go away.

Half the Agency just broke into Let It Snow.

I hate this time of year.



Jemma

Have you had anything weird happen over there?

All checked in and through security, now it's waiting until the plane boards. Kind of strange to realise I haven't been back to England since I first moved here almost three years ago.

Hopefully the labs won't be destroyed in the next two weeks while Cosima and I are out of town.

[Bucky/Clara/Natasha/Twelve]
Obviously if an emergency comes up, I will find a way back. I just really hope it doesn't come to that, we deserve a bloody break

The moon exploding is usually kind of a bad thing, right?

You know, kind of thinking I might lose my girlfriend in a bookstore if I'm not careful.

I'm not generally a very superstitious person but I might rethink that. At least Friday the 13th is over and today seems to be better.

Is it just me or could an alien space ship land downtown and I couldn't bat an eye at this point?

With Halloween coming up, I think we all need to be just a teensy bit wary.

Haven't had a year go by in a long time that didn't have some kind of thing happening. There's a reason I don't wear costumes any more.

Clint

Its been awhile, we should get lunch. Among other things.

Did I ever show you my nuclear submarine?

Okay, getting shot in the shoulder with an arrow is not my idea of fun. The arrow being laced with fucking fae kryptonite is even less fun. Especially when said fae kryptonite not only stops me from healing but also serves as a tracking device. Compared to what my previous dreams have been like, that was fairly low key. I'll definitely take that dream over the others.

[Filtered to Science-oriented people]

The fae kryptonite I mentioned above, I have it if anyone wants to research it. It's technically a mineral that's alive, if that peaks anyone's interest. It was dug out of my shoulder this morning, so that part is at least taken care of.

[Filtered to Kenzi]

Uh. Dyson has a son. And I...uh...may have slept with him. Before realizing who he was. That was...kind of way awkward. He has a lot of the same mannerisms that Dyson has. It's fucking freaky.

If people want to walk into my lab making absurd claims, they better be able to provide me with peer reviewed scholarly sources when challenged or be prepared to do actual research and then write me an essay on why they're wrong.

Bloody hell. I even tried to given them a way out by offering that they may be conflating issues. But no.

And there's the catch of my dreams. Being a P.O.W. is not fun, let me tell you.

So after everything that happened over the last week with the zombies, demons and the aftermath of it, I have been promoted to Head of the Medical Department at the Agency. It's definitely kind of exciting to be the Head now. Not that I expect it to change too much from before except that I get to give the orders now. It also means though that I need to look and see where we have holes in our roster and fill them. That might be the most difficult part of the job.

Obviously to be be in control, Hydra has to have a complete disregard for science and history and facts. Between that and people suddenly alive who should be dead and before we lose anyone el all based off of memories and being coded as 1s and 0s, I will be quite happy to get out of this bloody Framework world. It's just convincing the rest of the team that they belong in the real world.

I refuse to believe Fitz is this horrible just because I'm not in his life, there has to be something else

Well, my dreams progressed a bit, and I'm fighting on the European front. Not the safest place, but I wouldn't have it any other way. Fighting Nazis is fighting Nazis regardless of where it's being done.

There is nothing like watching something that, in theory is an interesting idea and make sense, go completely wrong because of unintended consequences. As if we hadn't already seen what happens when artificial intelligence is created and goes wrong with Ultron. No, let's create life model decoys in secret to keep the team from being put in harms way only to learn that one has been acting as a spy, meaning we don't know where the real May is or how long she's been switched. Fitz you bloody idiot Because obviously dealing with the Watchdogs and their hunt to exterminate Inhumans isn't enough.

I'm pretty sure these bloody clones are going to drive dream!me crazy. I was helping Alison with her campaign, which was fine, but then Cosima needed Alison's pee for some unknown reason, but Alison had some problem with Donnie and drugs so Cosima had to impersonate Alison briefly, which could have cost Alison the campaign, but surprisingly everything worked out.

Also good news is that we found Sarah as well as Helena. After getting back Sarah wanted to track down another clone who had been attacked by two of the Castor clones, Krystal. We found out that she worked at a nail salon and while I thought we should tell her everything, Sarah wanted to keep her in the dark, but wanted to find out more about what had happened with Castor.

I really hope there are no more Leda clones. I don't know how many more I can handle.

I've never really understood the appeal of posting all of your personal information online, but I can't fault a good communication tool if it means not turning into a recluse that recycles her own urine. Which I'm not, by the way. No matter what my brother says.

Er, anyway. Hi, Orange County. I'm Lena. I'm an engineer at Stark Industries (For now. If I don't find a more efficient cooling mechanism for this generator I may be out of a job soon). Please help me find things to do that aren't just work, so that my brother will get off of my back.
