[after this]


You know what? I'm completely done.










Rosalind, we can still have lunch tomorrow though. I'm just going to order something chocolate to dip fries into so I can eat my feelings.

James & Tony

Okay. I need your help with something.

I've already made something for Eleanor to act as a protection, but I need something that she can touch or something that can let me know she's in danger and preferably her coordinates. I figure a magic-tech something might be easier or magic for when that's something we can use and something tech-related for when magic's acting up. I figure options is probably for the best. I can't let my future my girlfriend die and it's hard to text and be in danger at the same time.

Also just in case, Tony, this is James. James, this is Tony. I don't know who you both know and don't know. I don't have Julia or my Tony here, so my usual go-to magic-tech duo are unreachable. Welcome to the crew or something.

Just got called a "buzzkill" by whoever's in my girlfriend's body in a tone that was clearly meant to devastate me.



Plus side, she hasn't actually killed/maimed/eaten anyone, so don't let her tell you otherwise. To the girl she was stalking out - sorry, and trust me, this isn't her. She'd be mortified by all of this if she was herself.

Anyway, if anyone needs me, I'll be at the Mansion listening to her whine about how awful I am until this fuck-up gets fixed. Send snacks.

[FILTERED TO AVENGERS + DEFENSE DEPARTMENT + EMME'S PEOPLE]

This new shitshow hit Emme. I knew she wasn't herself and when I called her on it, she flipped and attacked me. Cosmic energy fucked her up and she vomited up some sort of black sludge that's seriously concerning, then split. Might be possessed or something - I have no clue. But I don't break easily and she got through skin which isn't healing.

Keep an eye out. She's dangerous and I wouldn't be surprised if she hurt someone else. We need to keep her contained until this gets fixed.

If you find her, let me know immediately.

Chasing after the Cloak, who is chasing after a bunch of snowballs with faces is pretty normal for Vallo, I think. But Vishanti's sake.

Also sudden dumps of new mental letters from home are annoying - who else has experienced those? Has it changed you here? I mean physically. Besides the 'well, thanks for the new trauma' change.

Additionally, I'm looking for someone to spar with. I do my katas every morning but practicing with a quarterstaff has fallen by the wayside. If anyone's interested, let me know. I can bring us to the Mirror Dimension or wherever else.

filtered to friends and family:

Wanda and I set a date for the wedding. It will happen on June 4th, atop our favorite mountain that we sort of broke again after we fucked on-- and we'll have a portal or two open to help people get there, but we don't anticipate the entirety of Vallo. We just would like our friends and family to join us for the ceremony and also for a reception back at the Sanctum afterward.

filtered to kate danvers, specifically:

Soooooo.

I've had a couple days to adjust to this place now, and wow, I'm still blown away. I only just discovered that the multiverse was real like, a month ago, so finding myself in an entirely different universe is a lot to take in (though, I guess less to take in if still only thought the multiverse was theoretical).

It's weird how somewhere can be so like home but also so different. I wonder if this is how the other Peters felt when they

It's nice to meet all of you! I hear that there's a few of you who might know me (or at least a different version of me) already! So hi! Nice to see you!

Oh, I'm Peter, by the way. Peter Parker.

To anyone potentially accosted by an overengineered, mouthy, rogue bottle opener: I'm very sorry, I'll come get it immediately, and I'll replace anything it destroyed.

Why are you like this, Anthony?


Edit: It looks like a bat. You may want to duck.

[ BLOCKED FROM STEPHEN AND WANDA | VISIBLE TO EVERYONE ELSE ]

I am not one to look a gift Vallo in the mouth, so the arrival of this Disney Island has inspired me. It's time for an engagement party, people!

Wednesday, March 23rd @ Disney, please come join us to celebrate the upcoming nuptials of our favorite magical power couple; Dr Stephen Strange and Wanda Maximoff! Party is going to kick off around 4pm and will carry on through the night. Pepper and I are organizing it, so you know it's not something that you'll want to miss. There will be hotel rooms available for anyone who wants to stay the night. Food, drinks, and hijinks will be available for all. Don't miss it.

On my morning run this morning I saw the most magical sight.



DISNEY IS IN VALLO.

I'm not as great at the speeches as Steve was even if we have the same name (and don't call me Steve, by the way) - he just had a knack for it. Despite that, I'll do my best.

Sometimes this place sucks but, you know, the pasta's top notch. And blahblahblah, hang tight to the ones you care about.

That's it. That's the speech.

On another note, I think I've mentioned I do medical research here in addition to some GP clinic work since brain surgery's no longer an option for me. One subsection of that research I'm hoping to focus on is what changes occur with exposure to or bonding with, say, a magical rock or other magical items. And what benefits that may bring, how that can potentially be incorporated into or extended to different treatments. We have some ties to the infinity stones here (including myself) but I know we also have other people who have bonded with magical rocks and things - if you are willing and wouldn't mind coming in to see me, I'd be interested in asking questions and maybe taking a blood sample if possible. No pressure either way, but being transparent about research is important so that's what I've been working on. Clearly I should stick to medical research and not speeches.

( text to tony and carol - it's the group text which probably has some name like magical space tech, bitch )

( private messages - vax & gilmore (and wanda's on it too) )

( Read more... )

So that was fun. I figure I might as well make this announcement now before something else starts attacking and ruins the moment.

For anyone who doesn't know me. Hi. Tony Stark. Billionaire, philanthropist, genius inventor. (It's not ego if it's the truth.)

Attacking monsters and evil fairies who interrupt my wedding plans aside, Vallo has been extremely good to me, and I have decided I want to contribute back to it. Help make it an even better place for everyone here. I'm here today to announce the creation of Stark Industries Vallo. The focus of SIV will be to give back and make the community here the best it can be. I have a few projects that are currently in the very early planning stages, but our number one priority will be building a new state of the art living facility. It'll have both magical and technical security features to make sure it's always safe, run off of clean energy, and quite a few other features I can't announce just yet.

Obviously, this is a huge undertaking in itself, with a lot of other projects on the horizon as well. If you have any interest in helping, reach out to myself or Pepper and we'll set up a meeting. If your background is in science, magic, construction, philanthropy, whatever - we want to hear from you. You want to help Vallo, we'll find a way to assist you in doing so through SIV.

I guess this place heard me when I mentioned my club. I'm definitely not rushing to open it right now, but Carpe Noctem is here. If anyone wants a job, contact me. I'll need someone to help me run the bar, waiters and waitresses, and other staff. It is a BDSM club. There are back rooms for all your interests. You will respect the staff or else.

I'll let everyone know when the opening is. Probably sometime next month once I get staffing and things situated.

Lucifer

Don't miss your goat statues too much. I'm sure I'll still find ways to leave you some.

Kenzi

Get your ass over here, bitch. I'm not running this thing alone.

TONY

Once this is over, I need to talk to you about an eye. More like a back up or one I can wear when I have to use my regular one for other things. Like hovering in the air.

[ NATASHA ]

It's not my go-to idea for bonding, but how would you like to go kill some monsters/have a partner if you already are?

[ TONY & TORUNN ]

I'd like to feel useful, so I'm going to lend a (gauntleted) hand to blasted monster heads.

[ VEX ]

I just wanted to thank you again for the taste testing in addition to what I bought.

SO, HI to anyone who can read this! Can anyone read this? Unclear, but it does seem like I have a connection.

Anyway, I'm Kate. I thought this was maybe some sort of wild Avengers Initiation or something?? But I'm guessing I'm wrong there because I don't think they have elephants wearing armor in the Avengers. Or messed up white zombie-looking things. I feel like that was maybe something Clint would have mentioned. I hope.

Anyone want to help a girl out? I could usually totally handle this, but my bow is suspiciously absent, and I don't think kicking these things is going to do much good. Unless I can get the elephant to trample them, maybe...

PSA: IF YOU SEE THIS CAT, REMAIN AT LEAST SIX FEET AWAY. ONLY PET IF APPROACHED.



I say this for the sake of your continued physical existence and mental well-being, people. Trust me.

Edit to clarify: Goose (the above cat) is with me right now, but she does do her own thing most of the time. She's friendly, just give her space to come to you, and you're good. She doesn't like to be surprised, and she has to judge you before deciding you're cool.

[FILTERED TO STEPHEN STRANGE, TONY STARK & LENA LUTHOR]

Which one of you want to help me create some sort of force field around Goose? And maybe some sort of giant holographic "BEWARE OF CAT" sign that comes out of her collar when someone gets too close.

WHOA WHAT YEAR IS IT?

I'm Jillian Holtzmann. Two n's. Virgo. Avid skier. Gluten-full. And 100% jazzed to meet you. Yes, you!

I need my people, where are the science people? Is there a school? With grant monies?
