I’ve been enlisted. If you know what I’m talking about. If you don’t, you got an essay to read on the networks.

I got Lola’s usual schedule listed but I know I don’t have to explain too much on what to do.

Everyone please take a second to wish Kate a very happy birthday, today!

Kate, this place is incredibly crazy and overwhelming (which is saying a lot, coming from me), but every second I get to be with you is worth it. I love you and here's to so many more celebrations together. 💜💜💜


( cut for pictures! )

Friendly reminder to come on down to the Ice Dragon for all your boba and/or ice cream related cravings. It'll be well worth your time, I promise!

I'm locked in a closet with an Avenger and it's all the really rude demon babies' fault.


Okay, they're probably not demon babies, I'm guessing cupids because ~it's the season~, but they still have some serious attitude! They also did something to the handle and the hinges because we should have been able to get out by now. No offense to our new home, Starks, but this guy and I collectively have some great breaking and exiting skills.

I was waiting in line for coffee and then I just felt the need to share how much I love Prue Halliwell. I love her so much it's almost terrifying with my ability to screw up my relationships but she's amazing. Absolutely amazing.


I also love this coffee. The pixie is so grumpy but so great at what she does and it's entertaining exchanging remarks with her in the morning. I love this coffee a lot. Like goddamn it is good this morning.

Well, judging from the network scrolling I've done, I'm not sure a week is enough time to consider myself "acclimated" to Vallo. But it probably is enough time before I introduce myself.

Hey, Outlanders - Bobbi Morse. Just signed myself up for Defense Team A with the DOA this morning. (Captain Rogers, I hear that means we're working together again. Looking forward to it.) Gotten myself about a dozen bagels from Glenn since I've been here, a couple of new-arrival free drinks from the various bars, and heard some rave reviews about an Italian restaurant in "the Void"? Haven't tracked that down yet, but I will.

Any other suggestions for Vallo musts I should add to the to-do list?

[FILTERED TO FRANCIS BARTON]

Hi. I hope this isn't too weird for you, since we haven't officially met, but I assume you've heard I'm here. Pepper and Tony have told me all about you - and Kate has, too, actually. She's chatty.

I know I'm not the same person as your mom, and I wouldn't dare try to be, but I'd like to get to know you, if you'd be interested in that.

Okay, wow, so Hell is by far the worst vacation I've ever been on, and the last time I went on a trip I got hit by a train and framed for murder. 0/10 stars, Do Not Recommend.

[Kamala]

Hey. Thanks for coming to get me.

EDIT: [Roz]

Hey, I just heard we have similar taste in vacation destinations.

You okay?

Well then.

Some of you types more sensitive to the coming and goings of the world may have felt something a bit off this morning when you rose. Moreso than usual I would suppose. It would seem Vallo has expanded its collection of Hells to include my domain.

And before you ask, no I did not ask for or summon it here. I'm sure some of you nerds enjoy bringing your work home with you but have you seen that throne? I'm lucky not to have a flat arse after all these centuries.

Right. I would advise any of you feeling guilt over that muffin you cheated with this morning to stuff it in the bag with the discarded wrappings and dispose of the lot. Also keep an eye on dead bodies...except vampires and zombies. I think. I suppose they are fairly similar concepts to demons possessing the dead...

In other words, please do not poke the Hell if you can help it and should you need any assistance with its presence causing issue, myself or Rory would be best to ask.

[RORY]

Perhaps I should have asked before volunteering but knowing this lot and their penchant for wining, dining, and trying to mount trouble, I will need all the help I can get with someone familiar with the place.

Hello everyone. For those who don't know me, I'm Steve Rogers. And as strange as it feels to say this, we're coming up on my third Christmas in Vallo. It's my personal favorite time of year, and I mean that as a season and not any particular holiday. Even where I'm from, there's so many different reasons to celebrate in December, much less adding in more dimensions, worlds, galaxies, and universes. The best I can hope for is that we all find at least one reason to spread joy and love to those we care for and maybe, just maybe, our community as a whole.

I'd welcome anyone who is throwing general parties this year to share the details here, so they're in one place for anyone to find and plan around. I half suspect Sam will be offering up his place again either for Christmas or New Year's, but I can't in good conscience volunteer him. A little public pressure is okay, though.

And finally, I'll be spending afternoons from today until the 23rd as Santa in Starcourt Mall. Bring your kids, pets, or even yourselves if you want a photo and ask for gifts this year. I'll do my best to relay those requests to the right people to make it happen, if I can.

Happy holidays, my friends.

Steve

Reminder that tomorrow is Nat's birthday! She's turning [...]

Apparently, that information is classified. 🙄

She didn't want a big party, which I decided to respect due to her old age, but you're all important to her, so we're having dinner at Galdin Quay. Eight o'clock, tables are already reserved. Bring your significant others if they're not on this filter!

[ FAMILY & FRIENDS* ]

While part of Vallo is living the Black Friday Earth stereotype, Tony and I didn't have to do a single thing for Vallo to get us the best Black Friday deals of our lives.

Morgan Stark and Francis Barton (now the second Francis) are both here. According to the kids, Morgan is five and Francis is three, so Morgan has experienced losing her dad about a year ago, but Francis hasn't lived through any part of Ultron.

We're going to take things slow traffic-wise in the Mansion today and going into the weekend so they can see people they know and adjust to any changes due to time points and timelines, but we're so excited to be able to share them with all of you soon. We'll be making some changes to both our schedules from this point forward, but all SIV projects will continue on schedule, including the Tower.

If anyone needs me, I’ll be combing Vallo for limited edition something-something boots since I somehow disintegrated Natasha’s in the midst of my crossbow maintenance. That was new.

Pretty sure I’ll end up glared to death if I can’t replace them, pray for me.

Alright, what are your general plans for Thanksgiving weekend here? The last time I did anything in this big empty house was Steve's birthday (while he was here!) so I'm ready to host again if nobody else had any plans they were considering for that day.
