    /e pushes the >>> button on the Way Forward machine and travels far far far (each > is one 'far') into the future, so far they circle around and come back out at the same time. /e looks around for a Tshirt or other memorabilia from the future, settles on a 'I ❤️ Glorbox!" coffee mug. Good Morning and Happy Friday!

    /e flutters down from the rafters with old school Loki horns on, "They were giving them away on the street corner.... I also got a pet alligator too!" /e flumpfs down into the purple FBBC, "Ok so...first, I liked Loki the series buuuuuuuuuut....I did not like He Who Remains as a character, maybe is was the mania. AND I generally don't like plots where the 'bad' guy has all the answers and is saving everyone from themselves. It just leaves me cold. Perhaps that combined with the portrayal of the character are what made me give last half of last episode a big 'Meh'. Oh yeah and the whole 'Planet of the Apes' ending....I'm getting too old for this shit. :P" /e slurps a smoothie, "But LIke I said, I still enjoyed it. and will likely watch season two when it comes around."

    *raises hands* I...want plots. I want both really. But I understand that plotting takes a lot of effort and setup, just like being a DM for a Tabletop game. Only doing it out in the open where anyone can pop in is even MORE nerve wracking.

    Long as it's not just exclusive to clubs Jester will come. Melting peoples faces is always a good time! Club RP feels like the lowest common denominator for getting a group together for roleplaying. Not to denigrate it, rather a CLUB or a WEDDING/FUNERAL are the easiest ways to get people to join up and TALK to one another. And I would argue, clubs are the easiest of those to setup. I mean by design it is a place to go and see or be seen by other people and to occasionally chat about things, and given roleplayers, that usually means their characters and their backstories, "I'm not sure you should be telling me about your plans to build a nuclear device in your basement." But like RL, that person in the club with the awesome look that you compliment, "Hey that's a great look! Are you... a Pisces." instead becomes, "Hey that's a great look! Are you ... a dragon?" and then may lead to further conversation between the two chars. perhaps more as others may join in. Feel free to come by the Black Cat club Tuesday nights at 8 pm EST. and explore! 🙂

    /e is enjoying the lava waterfalls and the giraffe-walrus hybrid wrestling out on the plains, a popular pastime in Tangiers, when there is a knock at the door. Well who could that be? If it is another soul warranty salesman I will likely scream and then buy yet another policy from them. You NEVER turn down a soul warranty salesman...don't want to get them angry. /e opens the door to see a package and upon opening it, sees the Puppeh, sound asleep. /e picks up Puppeh and puts them in their lap. "Aw, you came to visit me...you know you coulda just imagined yourself here like I did." /e pulls out a plat of donuts from thin air, setting them on a nearby counter, and pets the puppeh as they go back to watching the wrestling. Good Morning all!

    /e cocks her head to watch the flood of coffee and pamcakes in the place. "That syrup is gonna be hell to get out of the bean bag chairs, and the shag carpet, and the drapes." /e shrugs, "Oh well. Probably just magic it away." Good morning all! /e sets out a present wrapped in green and gold and wanders off.

    Its true. Loud pops and bangs are not friendly to doggos.

    /e nods and hold up an umbrella to protect from falling space fuselage. /e sips a mimosa.

    /e jumps into a premade foxhole and hearing the screaming whistle of the gunpowder, waits for the massive firework to explode* /e looks up to see the skies darken as the massive fleet of Battalion settles into orbit over the planet. They are truly awe inspiring. What kind of beings could bring such massive ships from the farthest region of space to conquer the Earth? /e flinches as there is a loud THOOM. The single giant firework impacting the hull of the first ship and exploding in a brilliant display of red and orange and white AND as it had breeched the hull while exploding causing the Unobtanium Core Drive of the ship to become unstable, also an eerie eldritch blue green glow as the ship explodes. And one by one the millions of Battalion space battlecruisers all explode leaving the sky once more clear of menace. "For the life of my I will never understand why aliens don't use SHARED processing." Happy 5th! Don't ask if I am doing ok...I uhm....can't hear too well this morning. 😄

    Agreed. Not every faction needs a civil war...some could have completely successful coups. Someone or something sneaks in and decimates all opposition and takes over. Hellion bodies start flooding the streets, the remainder are dark, more feral, rumors are they have a new boss. Something that answered their calls and was more than happy to take over. Those who complained or were squeamish were disposed of, completely and totally.

    *Sounds of construction can be heard outside the Rookery. The pounding of a hammer, the scream of a saw blade, something that sounds like a vacuum cleaner and as you all look out you see a scaffolding appear and behind it, the biggest bottle rocket ever being constructed. A silly old bird is popping around in a hardhat supervising it's construction* /e squawks, "Ok! Tis is gonna be the biggest fire work of them all. Bring in the dump truck full of gunpowder!" Good morning everyone! Just gonna do one firework tis 4th but I'm gonna make it a GOOD one! Hope you all have a great 4th too!

    Someone in the US government decides that opening portals to other dimensions and other realities ON EARTH is probably a BAD THING(tm). As such, Portal Corp in Peregrine Isle is slowly fazed out. A new project, Protect Magellan is begun. Portal Corp moves to the Moon and only opens a single portal to one location. Universe 3791a. This universe is unique in that it is nearing Heat Death(a few million years left)...almost all the stars have faded, ejected their cores and have grown cold. The last black hole has dissipated As such, time moves at a glacial pace here. Five years in this universe is only a month on planet Earth. This has lent to the universe being nicknamed the Tar Pitch universe. Free to open portals they were unwilling or unable to due to various safety concerns, Portal Corp builds Magellan Station. A vast complex of portals that can be opened in a controlled environment. They have begun forays into alternate dimensions and universes. Given the nature and potential threats from their explorations AND from threats here on Earth, they have recruited superheroes to help safeguard the site.

    I was a part of the planning committee for the PRIDE celebration last weekend. Hope everyone had fun! Otherwise, playing way too many characters and way too many RP threads too. Otherwise, playing some Conan Exiles....it's a very adult Minecraft 😛 You all?

    That doesn't sound good at all. *shrugs* Maybe I have not missed much then.

    /e flumpfs down into a FBBC with a LARGE Diet Dr Pepper. Yep! Dr. Who just hasn't been the same since Pertwee. I've not seen the new ones with Jodie Whitaker but really not all the stories with Matt Smith or Capaldi were crackers. Some of them were just down right bad... I hear they are very...I guess PREACHY on the latest ones. Which is kind of the point of Sci FI...in part...Maybe they are ham fisting it and not doing it well. *shrugs and slurps loudly* Good travels and good fortune to you Warpact and thank you for coming and spending time here in pretend land. The door will always be open and the pamcakes will always be fresh and ready!

    WHAT! /e yells down from the rafters. I DID NOT DO THIS! At least I don't think I did. /e drops a couple of boxes of Krispy Kreme donuts from the rafters.
  19. rookery.
    Had a blast! Thanks again for running one!
  20. rookery.
    If you have not been to the Penny Palace I high recommend it. Place looks awesome!

    Hey Puppeh! and Kitteh and Hugbert and Bunneh! /e rolls the every growing donut out the front door watching it begin rolling downhill, slowly at first, then a bit faster. Whew. Least we have that thing out of here before It got too big to squeeze through the door. I would have hated to have to invent a shrinkinator ray gun...those things ALWAYS cause problems. Like always. It is indeed Monday but at least I hope we all had a good weekend? /e flumpfs down in an FBBC.
  22. rookery.
    That could be a slight problem. /e pokes the donut with a feathered wing. Also we might want to get Hugbert out from under it.
  23. rookery.
    You didn't use metric system did you?
  24. rookery.
    /e flutters down from the rafters Hey Puppeh! And Kitteh and Bunneh and Sackboy! How you all doing today? I can unequivocally say I am ready for this weekend... /e pours a double sized mug of coffee and spirits up a giant donut for herself before plopping into the purple FBBC.
  25. rookery.
