TW: Discussions about massive loss of life are in the comments

Welp, my friend obliterated my entire ... like everything. Running around in Logan's spare wifebeater and a pair of jeans that maybe go down to my knees. I feel like Oliver Twist right now. She got my wallet, too, so THAT's been fun.

And my luck isn't even *gone anywhere* right now. This is my luck actually *working*, since me and Guinness are fine.

But Jesus, this sucks. Gotta find a new place, gotta replace all my clothes. At least my weapon arsenal was in another building.

[Private to Jaina]
When you come down from whatever the hell this was long enough to breathe, we need to talk.

Hypothetically speaking.... Say in the Dreams, there's a device that can create whatever you think of. And in this device, despite it only being within it, you think up something that contains a physical manifestation of something that has no words and isn't actually real. A representation as it were.

Then you wake up and the physical manifestation of this representative object shows up here. Would it be empty or not?

Asking for a friend. Bloody hell

if you die in the dreams, do you die in real life?

asking for a friend.

that's never true, but still.

I prefer staying out of sight and low to the ground, but I have to say flying around and picking up cars is pretty fun.


Agency

I'd like a report from everyone on if you still have your powers or if you've miraculously become super human or magical.

[* if they've talked a few times, they're friends. xD]

I have finally located my brother, I haven't seen him since the bombing of our home. However, my joy is somewhat bittersweet, as Pietro is suffering brain trauma from the explosion. As a result he is without many memories from before. And by many I mean most, I don't know if he remembers anything at all.

I don't believe he's started to dream yet, but I know that when he does he will discover that we are twins.

I suppose I'm looking for advice. Should I tell him, that we're siblings, instead of allowing him to believe we're just friends. Or should I let him dream and hope it helps his true memories return?

Since certain people have told me in no uncertain terms I can't sleep at the office, it's apartment hunting time.

and here I'd gotten used to stability

Realising that I probably don't have clothes for the trip planned resulted in a trip to the shops. I don't know how anyone deals with this. I don't think shorts that short are a great idea for potential climbing rocks.

Skimpy tops are a little confusing too, I can't tell what's the front and what's the back.

So I think an outdoors centre would be better, at least there I can find proper activity wear.

I finally think I understand why you made the move out here Bucky. The weather out here is definitely different than New York. It is kind of strange to think that I won't have to experience another New York winter this year.

To everyone else, I'm Steve Rogers. I'm a recent arrival and I have brought my beautiful wife, Dr. Peggy Carter, with me. I look forward to meeting you all.

Thanks for the tranq dart to the ass, Legal, I think it prevented this hangover from turning into a day at the hospital.

So I'm laying in some cozy corner of this after party mess trying to recover from waking up from being tranq'd when this plucky red-head comes in with coffee, chocolate, and a cleaning crew.

You guys, I think I might keep her.

I have discovered what HYDRA planned for my brother and I, and as I assumed it is not that we will be saviours of the world, more likely we are to assist them in vying for removing freedom from world. It seems they are unable to stand up against the attacks of those looking to stop them, which is why we were so important in Dr Lists experiments.

And while I'm trying to piece together my newfound place as a villain in my dreams, I am informed that my accommodation on campus is only secured until the end of term, but my off campus apartment will not be fully repaired until at least September. Fire damage being what it is.

I dislike apartment hunting, I dislike it more when I am feeling rushed to do it.

whose bright idea was it to give me a team and put me in charge of anything? i mean really. sure you thwart a major crisis or two, but someone needs to explain to the icepole that is our learless feeder that i am not management material.

pretty sure the wife will run more than me, but at least it's on the sunny coast for a while.

you think supervillains from california are more liberal minded than super villains in new york? property destruction still seems pretty high. i'm still sure this is why i get tigra and cap keeps pym though.

Well, it seems like I've gotten a new arm. Again. How many times am I going to lose my arm in these Dreams? Because losing it twice has been more than enough to deal with. Though at least this metal arm wasn't made by Hydra assholes.

[Jemma]

That said, would you like to help attach this new arm? T'Challa gave it to me, so I'm assuming his sister and other scientists in Wakanda built it. You may be interested in seeing what their technology is like.

Uh... if you aren't already in work today and your destination is Stark Tower? No. Turn around. Do not approach.

A Dragon is literally camping on my bedroom as we speak. He didn't even take me to dinner first, just- boom, hi, dragon claws. Pretty sure my suits are all on fire right now.

We're not friends. He broke all my nice things.

These doomsayers I keep running into remind me of my home from my Dreams. Though they had a good reason to spout such things on my home planet. On Earth, they more liked to proclaim that if we did not follow the old ways, we would be damned. Or some such nonsense that I stopped listening to.

I'm probably more amused by these people ranting about the end of times showing up near a theatre putting on Jesus Christ Superstar than I should be... but c'est la vie.

It is entirely possible that the cast got into costume and then went to sing "Have You Never Been Mellow" at them.

I regret nothing.

Hey, it's me again. Your guy, Tony Stark. I have to stick the name on there because everyone on here is always all 'who are you again?'. Seriously, youtube search me, you'll even get videos with my clothes off. If you're into that.

So I need a person. I had a person, but she did such a great job that she got a promotion. Now it's your turn! General you. The person has to be able to handle things like: Kicking one night stands out of my apartment if I end up too busy to see them out, remembering important details like my birth date and my social security number, buying stuff when I need it, procuring me rare art, and being available for random trips to places at that last minute. Plus, I'll probably text you at 3am at least a zillion times. Very importantly, I've been told it's like babysitting. So someone with enough of a spine to tell a guy like me "Tony, No, it's 4am, get pizza at a normal time of night" is uniquely qualified to professionally babysit one Tony Stark.

There's awesome benefits and compensation for being forced to work for such a gigantic asshole as me. Hit me up.

On another note? I'm totally Iron Man, apparently. Like, super hero gig stuff. And Pop Tarts? You're on my naughty list.

I think...

I think I just became a super villain super powered in these dreams. It is very odd. Waking up was so different, I don't feel like this is good.

{Private Message to Dr H. Quinn}
Hello, I feel it is important to message you in request of potential assistance, I was given your name in relation to dream trauma, since you may understand it?

I am worried, this latest dream... I am hearing things that are not there.

May I make an appointment to see you?

when the hell do these dreams just knock it off.

on top of a sprained knee i've got a healing break now and damn hearing trauma again. so if you talk to me and i yell back, sorry not sorry, the dreams blew out my eardrums again. T_T

i also married a girl i'd known for four days. which honestly is so me i can't even be mad.

Scientists have found a new moon orbiting Neptune, and it's name is pretty damn adorable. Hippocamp after a sea creature from Greek mythology.


It's so tiny even Hubble missed it. Graphs!

It could enable the discovery of other moons and 'exoplanets' outside the solar system - some of which could harbour life.


That would be so cool. By the by did Oppy ever get rescued?

I must say, I find it interesting that in looking up what can only be considered constant cover ups for the area, this is the first website that comes up. And most of it ends up being posts about dreams.

You wanna know what regret looks like?

Equal parts 151, Maker's Mark, and Patron. All in a big party in a shot glass. Though for me, I'm going for a bigger glass. Twice the regret that way, right?

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.

I am still getting used to these devices, but it was recommended that I try to find new ways to socialise outside of school.

My name is Wanda, I am a student, I have recently been relocated to America in the last few years and meeting new people would be rather nice.

I may start adopting cats if I do not find something to do with myself.

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.

you know honestly, the last thing i need is more of these messed up dreams when i'm coming out of a concussion. legit struggling to tell what's real and what isn't right now.

like the costumes. are those really a thing? so many capes. so many weird head dresses. it's just dangerous really.

So if someone gets poisoned in the dreams and then starts to feel sick, how do they know if the poison crossed over or if they are getting sick?

On that note, if the way to deal with said poison was to have someone use their chi to burn it away, is there something comparable to that here? I can't believe I actually wish Danny or Bakuto were here

Orange County, I am in you. Feeling pretty holly and jolly here in California what with all that snow and everything. Nice of you to blizzard by the way, weather. I almost didn't make it in. It was a close one, not gonna lie.

Every year like clock work, too. Hey, it's December and suddenly it's cold and snowy here in the land of sunshine. Christmas decorations trying to kill us, mistletoe that makes young men kiss mall santas. It's like I never even left New York. Also it looks like I missed the snowmen this year. Can we put in a request for more snowmen?

Anyway, I have cronuts and most of you probably don't, so I'm currently winning the internet. Also, hey, Stark Employees, Merry Christmas to you - Happy Holidays, shrug emoji, whatever thing you celebrate. If you will. And I will. Am. Already started, no one's surprised.

Look in your accounts, 'cause like hey - you can't take it with you, so why was it sitting around in my bank account? You get a bonus and you get a bonus and YOU get a bonus.

So much for wishes coming true this year, I guess. Fuck you, Orange County. And Fuck Santa, too.

Seriously, again?

Right, so. Looks like the Snowmen are back after not showing up last year. What you need to know.

1. Psychic snow. So basically if you think about them, more will form.
2. Picture them melting.
3. DON'T THINK ABOUT THEM LATER. Since as point 1 notes, they will just re-form. Yes, I know this is easier said than done.

Every year, we get snow in December like clockwork.

Just two days and we'll find out if we break the streak or not.



Agency Lock

How do you all feel about being trained on our nuclear submarine?

Considering what I just Dreamt of and then went through the past couple weeks, this story about gene-editing doesn't sit well with me. Mostly because I am a product of gene-editing in my Dreams. My father took his DNA, then picked and chose what he wanted. He was a genius and one could say I was tailor-made for perfection.

I'm definitely not perfect, I am still human, but because of what he did, I can live for a very long time. Among other things. Normally I'm not entirely against gene-editing, I've just seen the extremely bad side of this both in my Dreams and here. But it has to start somewhere, and the conversation needs to be started, right?

I'm not sorry my father is dead. The bastard deserved what he got

You know, I may not have spent thanksgiving with my blood family but friendsgiving is just as good. If not better actually, for once I didn't leave both places feeling like actual trash. I'll call that a success. And Stiles, the rest of that one pound bag of star stickers we didn't use is yours. To the rest of his people: I regret nothing. Sorry not sorry.

I should really just go back to
This is stupid

I don't know exactly why I'm doing this, but randomly. Has anyone on this thing ever heard of an organization which calls itself The Hand?

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.

I do so love music rehearsals. Though after hearing Corey's version of not only Your Song but also Roxanne, I fear I may just have to leave my husband.

So, hypothetically, someone has some ... medical issues. But this hypothetical person has an aversion to hospitals, lets say because they were bitten by one as a child. Are there any small medical clinics around this place for this hypothetically injured person?

It has been a little over a month since I have moved here. Everyone I met so far has been beyond welcoming.

But these dreams. Do they always mirror your own life so closely?

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?

Three weeks from tomorrow Jemma and I are getting married. I both can't believe it's that close, and yet also so far away. I'm both excited and a bit nervous. It's a big step, but I'm more than happy to be marrying the woman I love.

And at least we have the best wedding planner helping us out so that cuts down on the stress! ;)

Some kid tried to follow me and I nearly shot him. Guess I'm a little jumpy.

Okay look this place is kind of. There is something going on here. Alright?

People keep disappearing... and they're always trying to make me sleepy. They took my weapon away. I told them it was for in case the imps and undead came back but even though the curtains are still singed they keep saying there were never any imps here at all.

I don't care if I AM starting to get better, I need to get out of here. I swear either I'm going insane or this place already is.

Edited the next morning:
Well, that's a hell of a sedative/painkiller combo they dosed me with. Show's over, folks.

That said, I'm pretty well done with this place regardless of how fucking crazy I sounded last night.

Holy shit, apparently it's been a long fucking while since the last time I posted on this thing.

But after spending an afternoon in jail, I'm pretty sure I needta start coming up with better ways to spend my time when this place isn't deciding to throw a fit.

The fuck do you all do for fun around here?

And finally back in Orange County. Being sent back to England for an investigation is never a good thing. I really hate KGB shit. Maybe I should take out some KGB agents sometime

And after some rumor and getting things all worked out, there will be a Bandstand reunion for Fleet Week (August 31st - September 3rd) where we'll be performing every night an abridged version of the show. There will be auditions for the ensemble with an emphasis on dance experience and familiarity with swing dancing in particular.

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.

Time for some fucking alcohol

So, I'm not quite the social media type of girl, but being new around here, I feel the need to ask all of you a very important question. Who has the best stock of liquor here? Can be bar, liquor store or otherwise.

While waking up to flowers is always a nice thing, the fact that these were the signal for me to get out and to safety. Of course it's when I'm supposed to meet Chauvelin and he's caught on. Either way, it seems that the Dauphin has been found and we are taking currently care of him back in England, so things did work out despite the typical things getting messy for a moment. I suppose now it's waiting to see what the next adventure will be.

Though a break would be nice as we're getting into crunch time with rehearsals as we open in less than a month, and thus start tech and dress rehearsals soon.

Well, I will certainly give Robespierre this. He is much better at understanding the long game than Chauvelin. I'm fairly certain Chauvelin is suspicious though by my return to France and how I claim to have left my husband and wish to return to the Revolution. Which admittedly he should be.


[Friends]
Just leaving this here

[engagementring.jpg]

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.
