vallo

WHO: Tony (II), James, Francis // Cleo, Tony (I), Pepper // Cleo & Francis.
WHERE: Stark Tower; James & Torunn's apartment // the Stark penthouse x 2.
WHEN: October 29, ‘23; morning.
WHAT: Disappearance notification hell.
RATING: Low, just sad.
STATUS: multi-log; COMPLETE.

( -Four years-. One month shy of four full years that Torunn and James had spent together in Vallo with nothing ripping them apart. If James didn't count both Blackpoints as one collective run, it was the longest time they had been together in one single displacement. And with one jarring notification and one empty side of the bed, that streak was over. )

Hey, does anybody know if there are some Outlander playgroups, or just recommendations for toddler-friendly things to do?

[ FAMILY & FRIENDS ]

Natalia is still here.

I don't really know what to say other than that.

Exactly how many donut holes is too many to eat in ten minutes? Asking for me.

We were skipped last year, but we woke up today to a tiny Natalia Rogers demanding our immediate attention. The pack is pretending they're not in love, and at some point we'll think about not having weapons everywhere before it's too late.

[ FAMILY / FRIENDS ]

Who needs what? I'm serious. Give me things to do, even little or stupid things.

Public opinion poll:

Would you be interested in/have any use for a public transportation system here in Vallo beyond Waypoints? More specifically, a light rail.

Obviously the waypoints are great, and useful. My thinking is that magic can be unpredictable, so why not have a backup. Also, always good to have another option for Outlanders who might not always be comfortable with magical transportation.

Would love to get some various opinions to see if this is something SIV may potentially move forward with.

After all the crazy this month, I sort of figured we could all use some silliness to cool down. But this time, instead of "today is [insert random holiday here]", you get a mini-survey! (Thank Google, even my brain couldn't come up with all these.)

Answer as much or as little as you want.

1. If you could get anything for free for the rest of your life what would it be?
   
2. You have to get a tattoo of the last emoji you used. How screwed are you?
   
3. What’s the first thing you do when you wake up?
   
4. What’s the most used phrase in your house?
   
5. If you came with a warning label, what would it say?
   
6. Do you usually sleep with your closet door open or closed?

alright I got news for you weirdos. did a favor for a guy with a horse's ass and it turns out he's got this old radio station out in the woods. he says I can play some music if I fix it up. and bring my own chair of course. so outlander radio is coming to you starting tomorrow. no you can't make requests. you can tune in to 90.9 and hear the good stuff or you can listen to your own goddamn music. won't make any difference to me.

ETA: scratch that it's playing now. freaking enjoy.

I know this is last minute, but Sam and I collabed on Fourth of July festivities at Avengers Compound tomorrow for anyone interested! We'll be out on the grounds and have a whole setup on the beach, too. There will be colossal amounts of food and drinks, and plenty of games (kid-friendly!) for everyone to join in on!

And I'm pretty sure Tony has some elaborate fireworks display planned, so you'll definitely want to see that up close.

[Compound coordinates here]

Edit: Noise-proof room available at the Wilson house for your animals if you're joining the party! Talk to Sam.

After fireworks, we'll disperse the crowds (if we get them), and Sam's got a kickback planned down on the water for Steve's birthday with cake and beer. Stick around for that!

June 4th was would have been my one-year wedding anniversary. I will start by saying this: I'm not devastated, and I have obviously not turned half of Vallo into a sitcom starring myself. I am fine. Truly. For those who do not know me, Vallo took away my husband. [...] And then my boyfriend, technically, but he was the boyfriend I had back home that was murdered by Thanos. That is slightly confusing

Anyway, this post is not about grief and I am not alone on this boat. This is more about... hope, I suppose? A lot of us know well how chaotic Vallo's nature is, bringing in the people you love only to take them away later. Or they bring you someone who is not from your world but you bond with them regardless. You learn to love them. Then there is the opportunity to take the plunge into something deeper, and you should. It does not matter what Vallo can do and don't hesitate because of Vallo.

If you want to, then do it. Make the memories. Date that person, marry them, try to make a family if that is what you want. The what if thoughts might always do the worst damage to you than this place could.

That is my one post for the year. Goodbye.



Oh! Iced tea weather. We have a lot of refreshing, fruity blends at my shop. [INSERT ADDRESS HERE hello] Cold tarts as well. We have a wall of books for people to browse there is erotica if you know where to look, and anything on the menu is available for delivery. Tommy will get them to you in less than five seconds. (Is less than five seconds insulting my son's speed? I'm sorry.)

So I just saw a guy walking down the street with a fully functional metal arm. Is that like, something anyone can get, or do you have to be some sort of super badass? Because I've been rocking this hook hand for a couple of weeks now and like, it's nice, I'm all about the pirate aesthetic, but there's something to be said about being able to tie my own shoelaces.

So hey, did anyone else show up here with a bunch of people from the same universe as you, where you guys remember more or less the exact same things except with a couple of little differences?

And by a couple of little differences, I mean some pretty major differences.

It is Officially June 1st! Which means it is less than a month left until graduation and official start of summer and MONTHS OF FUN! But more importantly, it is PRIDE MONTH!

I showed up last year in July so I missed this month (holy crap I'm almost here for a year!) but I want to know about everything Vallo does for it. Because I assume it does a lot for it. NICE things of course, not like.. murder hornets or something.

Also, also.. was that not an amazing prom?? Guaranteed it was better than the prom I would have probably had in my high school which isn't shade at my friend, Zoey, but like.. usual public high school budgeting, you know.

AVENGERS & CO

Everyone good? Are any of you younger/older/needing help?

[ FAM & FRIENDS ]

Come out, come out, wherever you are.

I'm not upset, I just want to discuss this.

As much as I love the slow pitch game and an extra excuse to drink on a weeknight, I've got some excess energy to burn today. The skin-crawling restlessness has been hitting me hard, and I'm guessing I'm not the only one who could stand to blow off some steam.

How many supers or enhanceds out there are up for a Clash of the Titans-style baseball game tonight? Full strength, liberal use of powers (not against each other, but in the pursuit of the ball), no holding back.

Kamala, Rogers Sr. and Jr., Kratos, Stark, consider yourselves drafted.

EDIT: Come by to the Avengers Compound grounds [coordinates] any time tonight between 6-7pm. Spectators welcome, food and drinks provided. Teams will be picked then and there, as soon we get a final player total.

Look what decided to show up just off the coast today.

It let me in without complaint, but Stark, if you want to check it over, probably couldn't hurt.

Alright, SO, my birthday's in two weeks. You all probably know I require more attention on my birthday than some - no gifts, though, I'm good there. In the absence of Disney (unless Vallo decides to be nice again 👀), I want to plan something fun. I'm not old enough for the wine-and-cheese night that Google suggested.

Karaoke? Escape room? But that wouldn't be fun for spy and spy-adjacent people. Rage room? Everyone here probably likes breaking shit sometimes. OR we could stick with the theme park idea and go to Blizzard World or Critical Role Land since those are more kid-friendly! (Pepper, please can the kids come?)

Opinions? Please help.
