[The video opens on a pick, gripped just a hair above guitar strings. Just a moment to absorb that image, and then his fingers flick it downwards to begin a series of fast, hard, lightning-sharp chords. Morgan steps back from the camera, letting all of him and the guitar come into view as he hammers out the quick solo, which ends with a dramatic stroke and extension of his arm, as his hair tumbles down in front of him.]

[He looks like he's out of a thrash metal band and he's a ham. Might as well work the image instead of pretending it doesn't describe him.]

[After that moment of posing, Morgan points the pick at the camera, looking up at it with a grin.]


Anyone else out there play? We got enough people to put together a band?

[...He'd picked his username when they pulled him here because superheroes and people on the internet have one thing in common: secret identities. He'd also kind of assumed there wouldn't be any actual Avengers here. So he'd given them his wiki-editing handle, and he maybe regrets it a lot now, but at least he can make this post without his real name attached, or he probably wouldn't make it at all.]

Just a question, but if you knew someone here could tell you about your future... would you ask them about it? Would you want to know, or not? Would it make a difference if they seemed pretty uncomfortable about it?

[He's not sure he does want to know, honestly. But at the same time, Billy is being just a little weird about it, and maybe knowing would be better, in case he lets it slip later anyway. He just can't decide.]

[so … rey is missing. he's tried to check on her, found some of her belongings (and took them for safekeeping in fear of the worst…), but no her. with hux lurking around, it's really hard not to fear the worst. but he's gonna keep it together and make a nice normal network post everything is a-ok here it's fuckin' fine!!]

How many of you are from a place with normalized space travel? The more people I talk to, the more I realize it's rare. I was thinking, maybe if I had enough people who were interested and had the right knowledge … who knows what could happen. We could put together a ship, go exploring. This wouldn't be an instant thing, I know it'd take a lot of time and work. But if other people are interested, we could try and make it happen.


[jk it's not fine aw here it goes]

And I was just wondering: has anyone seen Rey around? She's new, too, so I don't know how many people would actually know her … but she was living on the fourth floor in communal housing. Brown hair, carried around a staff sometimes?

Hi, guys.

[The man on the other end of the network smiles awkwardly. He's gearing up for a conversation, but drawing attention to himself is a new experience. The way he draws a breath and fidgets makes it obvious that he's still feeling out the network.]

So, this is definitely on the list of moments that make you think you might be dreaming. It sounds like we have people from just about everywhere here. Someone tell me this isn't the weirdest thing you've ever had happen to you. It'll make me feel better.

Before you got here, did any of you have strange things happen? You know, things out of fantasy movies or fever dreams for everyone else? What's the weirdest thing that you've ever seen?

[He laughs, mixing an exhale into it as he ducks his head.]

Sorry, I'm trying out the whole coaching thing. My name's Christian. Apparently I'm working with the Gramarye Magic Research people as a life coach, so if anyone wants to get a drink sometime and discuss tragic life choices, I have a really open schedule. I'd say we can do lunch too, but is that weird? I don't want to be weird.

Seems to be a lot of introductions and specific requests on this thing recently. Let's change things up a bit. Here's a few general questions for the masses:

1. If you could travel to any time period, when would it be and why?
2. If you could have any superpower, what would you want? Why?
3. What's your stripper name? Name of your first or favorite pet/stuffed animal + the name of the street you grew up on. Mine's 'Bear Handley'.

Feel free to comment on everybody else's answers. That's what's supposed to make forums like this interesting.

My name is A2.

If the name YoHRa means something to you, stay the hell away from me. Unless you're 2B or 9S. Actually state your business first if you're 9S, because I can only get stabbed so many times before I lose my cool.


[ She doesn't care this probably looks like a bunch of nonsense for 99% of the people here. ]

Out of curiosity, can someone vouch for the "official" statement that we're on the Moon?

Oh and I'm also a Surveyor. Go me.

[ The video comes on to show the floor of Communal Housing level 12. The camera moves every so often, as though the person handling the phone isn't being too steady with it. After about a minute of shuffling, the view is reversed, bringing instead a face into view-- that of a tall redhead woman in silver armor with distinctive red markings around her eyes. She frowns in concentration, evidently unaware that the phone is recording.

She is muttering to herself, ]
No, that is not-- That is not right. How do I change it?

[ She's attempted to follow the instructions she was given to enter a custom username, but she fatfingered the keys and misspelled her own name. This is a disaster. Where are Sera or Leah when you need them? Back on Earth, of course.

Angela growls in frustration, poking at the phone ever more vigorously. Eventually, she realizes the damned thing is recording, and she slaps an embarrassed hand over her face. ]


...I require assistance.

[ Obviously. ]

[ The feed opens up to Loki, dressed in a white shirt and black tie and slacks. He seems to be in a facility somewhere in Riverview, one that might not be familiar to most. He taps a pencil on a clipboard, his bid to look professional. Even his hair is combed back, a few strands tied together with a silver clasp. ]

Greetings. I work at the Gramarye Research Facility for Magic and I was hoping to get some examples of magic taken place in Riverview. Any will do, even ones where your own magic has clashed with the rules of this reality. If you could make it short and precise, I would be most . . . grateful.
