War Is Coming Communications.

If I'm going to be staying here for a while, I might as well introduce myself, properly, that is.

My name is Katie Bell, and I'm 15 years old, I'm in Gryffindor house, and I play Quidditch! Now that I think about it, probably doesn't mean much here since there's no Hogwarts. Speaking of school, does that mean I'll have to go to a muggle school?

I'm also completely bummed that we're missing the Yule Ball and the rest of the Triwizard Tournament.

Not that I'm not having fun here! I am, but I guess I'm feeling homesick right now.

Oh Merlin, whose house is this?? It's not mine. Did I apparate? I don't even know how! It's definitely not my family mansion but it kinda comes close. And, umm, my room. Kinda like how I'd probably like mine to be if I really lived here. Green walls, and silver. Green clothes too in closet but they are all too big for me.

Mom, DAD! Where are you? I wish I could find you. I'm okay. Please don't panic? If someone kidnapped me, I should tell you, my mother will hear of this. My grandpa might to but he's had a sour look on his face lately. I told him to smile sometimes or his face will get stuck like that. He didn't laugh.

kenny is so going to kill me.

I think Isaac's gone.

I ran into Tamsin. She's different, too, but I'm not reading her as aggressive. I've showed her around a computer a little, so she might pop on here. I thought that those of you who are friends with her might wanna know.

Hey, umm.. Kirk. Those Star Trek DVDs that were lost in the quake. The ones from the Picard era. I bought them all again. So if you want them right now, I'll bring them over. Anyone else, I'd recommend a good watch too. Patrick Stewart was awesome. I recall he also played Xavier nicely too.

Looks like we're going through a crazy Seal episode. Looking forward to the Christmas in July thing, sounds fun. As does the date auction.. plus it's for a good cause. But I've found another good distraction - skydiving! Anyone interested? It's quite exciting.

I'm gonna miss the warehouse I hope all you new arrivals are settling in okay.

Right, you lot. I think we all need a good laugh, yeah?

So, me and Als we're hosting Christmas in July. Wednesday night. Bed of Roses. You're all invited. It's be bloody awesome.

So this is the future huh?

Regina says if I talk to this it'll send people what I say.

Anyway names Megara. Picked up from Thebes and dropped in this mess of a war.

Point is I'm done being left at the whim of gods and monsters so unless you're a heroic wonderboy with plans on fixing the mess you can just help me figure out how to get back.

There's always a way

I'm starting to write the protocols for the security system for the new complex.

Who wants some input?

And, yes Felicia. I'm getting you to test it once it's all installed. Natasha, Ward, you too.

Mark off July 31st on your calendars, everyone. That's when Verdant will be holding our date auction with all proceeds going to helping out victims of the earthquake. Thanks so much to everyone who has volunteered to be auctioned off or to help work the event. The rest of you, I expect to see you all there with your wallets. You might score a hot date out if it and you'll be contributing to a really good cause.

For the record, I don't have a favorite jello. If one more person asks me that... I'll show them just how messy jello can be.

[OOC: Backdated to before yesterday's meeting. Stupid working weekends!]

I know that some people are probably still too hurt to make the meeting. So, I'm going to set up video conferencing. That way, people can attend from home if they want.

So, let me know if you want me to add you in.

One of us has to try trusting these people. Maybe they can explain the

Can someone explain the auction thing to me?

I know what charity is obviously I just...we don't get to see it happen at home. Nothing real anyway.

People bid and they win a person? But just for an evening with no obligations on how they spend their time? Its not that simple is it?

Sometimes, I think I'm going to wake up and find out the last week was all a bad dream. Pretty stupid, I guess.

Hey.

( Lydia Martin )

We should probably figure out where we're going to live when they let you leave the hospital. I mean, there's room at the bunker, where I've been staying with Lissa, but Sanctuary and Graeves House are both gone.

Hey, everyone! You might remember that I posted about doing a charity date auction at Verdant. We've decided to make it a benefit to help all the quake victims, both displaced and locals. I haven't set a firm date, yet, but I'm looking at maybe early August. I do have a few people signed up to be auctioned off, but I could use some more, so please consider signing up. We could especially use some more women, since there are only a few on my list so far.

This is really just all fun, so don't think you can't sign up if you're seeing someone. People will be bidding for a few hours of your time, but it absolutely doesn't have to be a real date, okay?

Proxy signups will be allowed, but I WILL be confirming with people that they are okay with it.

So far, the auctionees are

James Rogers
Clint Barton
Ben Skywalker
James Kirk
Damien Thorn
Zane Donovan
Marcel Gerard
Tony Stark*
Stefan Salvatore
Caroline Forbes
Georgina Kincaid
Alicia Spinnet
Faith Lehane
Katie Bell
Barry Allen
Chloe Sullivan
Angelina Johnson
Buffy Summers
Robin Hood

*firm maybe

I could also use some volunteers to work the event. We'll need servers and kitchen staff for the evening, so please let me know if you have any relevant experience and could use a job, even if it's just for a night.

This is not what I had in mind for the fourth.

At least I'm allowed to use a phone again.

Well this is certainly the strangest place I've been. Makes Beacon Hills look tame.

So, I was with Kol and now he just is gone.

Totally and completely gone.

It's nice to be back to normal. Maybe if we're lucky the Seal will leave us alone this week? Though, knowing our luck, if I were to take bets I'd lose soundly.
