Current Almost exactly one year since I step away from being here, and a lot can change in that amount of time. Here's hoping I can find a game or two and see how things go from here.

RIP Stan Lee... You will forever be missed. As someone whose grown up reading Marvel comics, you've always have kind of been a part of my life. Thank you for making most of the Marvel heroes we know.

Bio

WIP I'm coming back after forever so clearing all of this seems like a good choice.

Just few basic things.

1. Left for my own sort of health reasons.
2. I ran a game for almost a decade when I stepped away from everything.
3. Currently working on getting an interest check up for the game I am going to hopefully be able to run.

All set, that's all for now.

Lance and Bruce Banner



It had been a few days since reality shifted back, and Lance was in Stark Tower. He was heading there to finally talk to his father about everything that had happened. It was something he had more or less been trying to avoid, but it wouldn't really stop bugging him, so here he was. At Stark Tower heading to where he figured Banner would be, in the lab. Yet for once, that wasn't where his father was. Rather than tinkering away in the lab, Banner was sitting at the bar, mixing himself a drink. As long as he didn't drink too much, the other guy didn't think it was poison and spit it out. "...Hey buddy," he greeted, spotting his son.

"Huh, would have thought that you'd be in the lab or something," he responded, walking over to where he was.

"...I broke the lab..."

"Oh, uh... Okay..."

Banner nodded. "If you're looking for Tony, he isn't here."

"Well I figured he wasn't here, it's kind of obvious, he talks way too loud," he said with a small laugh, "...Actually I was looking for you."

The Avenger lifted his head up, looking at his son with curiosity. Just like none of his degrees told him how to fly a plane, they also failed him in determining what exactly was going on with Lance. His son - in this life at least - never wanted anything to do with him at all. "Really?" he asked, surprised.

"...Yes really."

Banner nodded, pouring Lance a drink and holding it out to him. "What do you want to talk about?"

Lance took the drink from him, saying nothing for a moment. This wasn't exactly going to be an easy sort of conversation, that much he did know, however it wasn't something that he could avoid forever. Especially if he actually wanted to have a better relationship with his father. His mind went back to the other reality, and figured his dad could probably guess what he wanted to talk about. "...I think that you can probably guess what..."

He nodded a bit, sighing as he finished his own drink. "Alright, let's talk about the House of M."

"Sounds like I'm not the only one who doesn't really want to talk about it... But we probably should... Since that world was way different from the real world..."

"Yeah... I'm guessing you have somewhere you want to start?"

"...I'm going to be blunt, namely the fact that there we... Well um... We didn't fight we didn't argue, none of that... It was a little bit... Odd to be honest... Not something I'm used to at all..."

"... I tried my best to give you a good life there, to make sure you never had problems because of the other guy...."

"...I know, and I have more or less been a horrible person to you... And one of the reasons why I came here was to tell you I'm sorry for just about everything that has kind of happened between us..."

Banner shook his head. "I should be the one apologizing, buddy... I haven't exactly been a great father."

"I was the one who more or less tried to pick fights and whatever, so I honestly don't think you should be apologizing..."

"Buddy, I wasn't there for you when you were little. I was always moving around. I have a monster in my head. It wasn't exactly a safe and healthy environment for a kid."

"...For the record last I checked you didn't even know that I existed until not long after what happened here in New York, so that whole not being around is kind of understandable... But all of that, is still not really an excuse for how I treated you at all..."

He nodded slightly. "It's okay, buddy. You don't need to worry about it."

"...Are you sure?"

Banner nodded, giving his son a slight smile. He knew that Lance had been incredibly hurtful and abusive towards him, but that didn't change the fact that he was his son and he loved him. "I am."

"Okay... If you say so... If it's alright with you... I want to fix things between us, so it isn't as, bad... That probably was the one thing I wished carried over from the other world... That we weren't arguing, or I wasn't constantly picking fights..."

"... I'd like that too," Banner replied softly, before pulling his son in for a hug. "All I've wanted for you is that you're safe and happy, buddy." Lance returned his hug, falling silent. There wasn't really much else to say for him, since he had said just about everything that he could think of. So maybe now they could fix their relationship now that they finally talked things through.



And now...



With the world back to normal, or as normal as things could be, things back at the mansion were now more or less settled again, and hopefully it would be a while before the mansion decided to blow up again. However, that does not mean that there weren't cases that the group had to deal with at any point, by no means are things ever so simple. No, they had to deal with an illness known as M-Pox that had swept across the globe for a time, and caused many members of the group to fall ill and nearly die.



Things thankfully though have been a little bit less eventful since then, a month later after the fact. Guin and Pietro's wedding is set to take place in one month, so that's something. However things are not exactly as they appear to be. There have been reports of something entering the atmosphere, and now the team got a call from someone that they wouldn't have normally expected; Reed Richards. He's asked that the group meet up with him (and the Fantastic Four of course) at Stark Tower, so it sounds like they'll be meeting up with the Avengers too.


Marygold, Lance and Mirembe


Location: Stark Tower
Skills: N/A



They had taken the Blackbird into New York City, figuring that it likely would be easier then anything else, not to mention they did have a landing pad there to make things easier for them. On the flight there, they'd be able to see something happening in the sky above the city. Purple clouds seemed to be swirling about, storm of sorts, but there wasn't really anything obvious that could be causing it. The group more or less when they walked into the main room, they are going to recognize more then a few faces, just some that they haven't met yet.

The obvious group they'll immediately see and know is the Fantastic Four, who are more or less scattered around the room. Reed Richards looks to be having a conversation of sorts with Tony Stark over at a computer console, while Sue Storm was sitting on a couch talking with her brother Johnny while Ben Grimm (the Thing) was leaning up against the wall nearby. That was just the people that most of them had met before, if you don't take into account that Bruce Banner was standing off to the side by himself for the most part and Hawkeye was there too.

Then they'd be able to notice the others in the room, including who it was that Hawkeye seemed to be talking to, that being a red head with short somewhat wavy hair who could only be Black Widow herself. The God of Thunder Thor seemed to be having some sort of conversation as well with the guy in the red white and blue Captain America. Looked like just about the main heroes from the groups were all in one room, and Reed Richards glanced over at them when they'd enter the room.

"...Hey there dad," Lance said, walking over to him. His hair had started growing out to be a bit longer then it originally was, and he spoke somewhat quietly.

Banner had headphones in, playing soft classical music. Seeing Lance though, he slowly took them off. "...Hey buddy."

"Ah, looks like you weren't kidding about being able to get here quickly were you? No matter, there is something urgent that we need to discuss." Richards said instantly, walking into the

"Anyone else wonder why is it the world never gets a break when it comes to end of the world stuff? Or is it just me?" Tony asked, but he gave a slight smile and wave towards Guin when she walked into the room.

"I'm assuming everyone here has seen the giant purple clouds that have appeared over the sky? Soon, odds are those clouds will part and reveal a being of great power that could end the world as we know it."

"End of the world? Of course, what else is new..." Mary commented with a bit of a shrug.

"Well, this is something that could probably cause the world to end all at once rather quickly..." with those last words, the sky through the window started to get rather dark, and if anyone glanced outside, they'd see that the clouds up above have started to part, and they'd see a giant figure with glowing eyes appear out of nowhere. Allison actually would remember vaguely seeing the image up above them, from a vision way back, when they were in the Brotherhood lab. She had seen the figure consume an entire planet in the blink of an eye. "...That is our problem... His name is Galactus, and he's known as the World-Eater... He's likely not going to try and consume the Earth yet, not until his herald shows up anyway. His Herald essentially tells planets that they are going to die..."

"...What's the plan?" Black Widow asked, her voice calm but her eyes were incredibly intense.

"I doubt shooting a fucking arrow at the thing is going to work," Hawkeye mused. Banner was staring up at the sky in a mixture of wonder and horror.

"Well, it will require a device known as the Ultimate Nullifier."

"Hang on one second, I heard about that thing. Supposedly it can destroy literally anything in the universe, as well as end up killing the person who uses it."

"Well yes, that is correct however we don't need to use it. Hopefully anyway... Galactus is afraid of the device."

"Cool, so we just grab it and threaten the giant purple thing. Fun."

"It sounds simple, but in reality it is far from it," Sue commented, before she stood up from where she was, clearly showing that she was several months pregnant at this point. "The reality of the situation is that the device is not going to be so simple to retrieve. Considering where it is located."

"Well no duh!" Johnny commented, standing up now. "The damn thing is on Galactus' own ship! And let me tell ya, it is big considering how big the guy is."

"Of course it is... Keep your friends close and your enemies closer, if the device is something that can destroy him, then of course he's going to keep it close to him." Captain America commented, and now he was standing right next to Johnny.

"So who is gonna play Suicide Squad?" Hawkeye asked with a frown

"Well..." he said, rubbing the back of his neck and not really sure what else to really say to easily mention it.

Thinking about it for a moment, Mary thought out of the groups gathered, who would make the most sense. If the ship was huge, it couldn't be a small group, so that instantly knocked the Fantastic Four out of the running, leaving the X-Men and the Avengers. Avengers definitely had the man power, but from what she knew, other worlds knew that the Avengers could be considered a threat to everyone, many people recognized them on Earth, and from what she could tell some would recognize them on other planets. "...I have a feeling that I already know what group is going to be shanghaied into it..."

"...It's going to be us isn't it?" Lance asked, looking over at Richards.

"Unfortunately, yes... It would make the most sense, as the X-Men, at least the newer group, isn't known outside of Earth, while the Avengers since the Battle of New York have become known to other worlds. We also are known on other planets, and Galactus has run into us more then once before..."

"Wait, you want the group of kids to do what?????????" Tony instantly snapped, glaring somewhat at Richards.


Jason and Janelle Gauger

Location: Camp Half-Blood - The Dining Pavilion
Skills: N/A


"Oh, don't get me wrong, having an older brother can be a lot of fun, but let me just say that the best part about it is that I can tease him relentlessly. The worst part about the entire thing, as I think I mentioned before is that he is way too over protective in my brain. That is the worse thing possible, but I've learned to deal with it for the most part, just get to crack more then a few jokes about him whenever possible," she said with a bit of a laugh to Kristen.

"Wow, you are so nice to me Ellie! Why do you find it so much fun to do that to me! So mean!" he said, but he laughed a little bit, smiling slightly at his sister. He then heard Kristen's other comment about them being a long way from home. "Well yeah, I mean, Ireland is kind of on a different continent entirely... Only came to the US around 2 years ago, which, you know, is fun. I at the least do miss our old home there..."

Janelle nodded her head slightly at what her brother had said about missing their home. "I agree, I miss Ireland sometimes too... I mean, this country is definitely different from back home... Though we of course didn't exactly have too much of a choice in whether or not we came to this country..." she said softly, before shaking her head slightly as she took a moment to think about the other thing that Kristen had said, as well as take the pretzel. "What sort of lessons would that include if you don't mind me asking?"

Jason nodded his head slightly, at his sister sadly mentioning what had happened to cause them to end up in the US. Their parents had died and none of their family members wanted to take them in aside from their uncle who had made a life for himself in the country across the ocean. It was a bit sad over that it had to happen that way, but it couldn't be helped. "Yeah, what sort of lessons would they be?" he asked as he took the other pretzel.



Marygold Isley

Location: Camp Half-Blood - the Big House
Skills: N/A


Mary watched as the entire situation more or less played out in front of her as Mr. D and Chiron were more or less brought up to speed on the entire situation, and Zeke of course mentioning that maybe the gods should be told what was going on. Her mind instantly wandered to what the odds were that the gods would do something, especially considering how Mr. D seemed to act about it, and she knew that odds were that the demigods would be on their own yet again to play hero. That was always how things seemed to work in the long run.

However, the one thing that stunned her the most at the moment was the fact that Zeke of all people seemed to snap pretty easily at Rebecca. Usually, it was Zeke being annoying and causing others to snap at him, not him getting mad at everyone else. Not to mention, Rebecca had only been trying to help out. "Seriously Zeke? She's only trying to help you..." she said softly as Kiera asked a question, and she just sort of shrugged, figuring that Zeke and Rebecca could potentially answer that better then she could.


Queen Valda


Location: Outside of the Vaults
Skills: N/A


Valda nodded her head slightly as her brother suggested that they all see about sleeping in the Queen's Room. It would make her feel better to know that her siblings were alright and safe, as long as nothing else happens or nothing else insane happens that night, maybe, just maybe they'd be able to get some sleep. "Alright, that sounds like a good idea to me Myrus," she said giving him a slight smile, not sure what else to really say on the subject.

She was a little bit surprised, and somewhat glad, that Myrus had decided to take charge and started giving orders to people. That was one thing she didn't want to deal with tonight, and that was the truth. Valda didn't even really want to think too much about what might even happen, and she knew that they needed to talk to Rowland about everything. "I'll see about sending off a message rat to Rowland, I'll meet you in the Queen's Room," she said, giving her brother a smile as she started walking away.



Sylvi the Bard and Bruce Banner



Location: Asgard - The Palace
Skills: N/A


Bruce said nothing, more or less watching the pair head off on their own, well, technically it was Tate carrying Sylvi, but that didn't really matter too much. He had a different thing to be concerned about at the moment, that being that Nova had collapsed, and likely needed some help in some form. He just watched Sylvi and Tate leave, before he made his way to where Nova's room was, carrying her along as he headed that way. He sort of hoped that he wouldn't run into any of his siblings, as he was pretty sure one of them would blame him for what happened to Nova.

Eventually, he found his way to Nova's room, and walked inside, setting her down on the bed and tucking her into the blankets, setting down Mr. Bunny next to her. He would have set Mjolnir down on the ground nearby if he had actually been able to lift the hammer, but he couldn't. Walking from the room, he glanced back at his sister for a moment, before leaving. Now was the time to go try and catch up with Myth and see how things were going with the whole Loki situation.

"Sounds like fun for them anyway," she muttered, not really sure what else to really say about that. His siblings were more then a little bit of a handful, and now they were sort of stuck on Asgard for a little while anyway. Not to mention she didn't really want to go back to their room in the Ramblings considering it was now being haunted by a ghost that she constantly was able to see. It was not some place she'd want to go, especially considering the fact that they had effectively murdered the guy.

Sylvi giggled slightly, giving Tate a bit of a smile as he picked her up. "I'm perfectly fine with this," she said as she nestled in closer in his arms. Hearing his other question about how she was feeling, that one was a bit more complicated as she tried to think of the best way to phrase that. "...I'm feeling a little bit better... Just mainly tired, and more then a little freaked out by everything that has happened more or less..."


Jack Gold

Location: the Orphanage
Skills: N/A


"...Isabella, you aren't the only one who got a letter like this... I did too and so did Megan, and we both were adopted too, from this orphanage actually... I don't know about you, but this is getting more then a little bit weird... Since what are the odds that multiple people get the same letter? None of it is making any sense to me about this... But we can talk about that later, right now we should probably just figure out why there was a dead man at the orphanage and what happened."

With those words, Jack fell silent, putting the letter back where he had found it and glanced out the car window, just waiting to get there, and figuring there was a chance that Megan probably got there before them. It wouldn't have surprised him if she had, but he didn't say anything else. The whole thought that Isabella had gotten a letter like they did was a bit odd, maybe they could figure this thing out. When she parked the car, he got out of it and looked at her. "Come on, let's go," he said as he headed inside of the Orphanage.



Rosalia Rider

Location: the Streets
Skills: N/A


Rosalia gave him a bit of a weird look, "Right and I'm the queen of France. There is no way that fairy tales and stories like that are real. It's just not possible. Not sure how you pulled off that trick really with the fireball but still, things don't add up. Even if, for some weird reason I believed you, why did we end up here? And also, I ain't no kid of a Fairy Tale character, if I were, seriously doubt my life would be this screwed up," she said, shaking her head and rolling her eyes ever so slightly.

However, a part of her did hesitate slightly. He offered her the chance to know what it was exactly that he was talking about, and a small part of her really did want to believe what it was that he was saying. If her parents were off in another world or something, one of fairy tales and had sent her away to safety, then maybe she hadn't been dropped off at that orphanage because no one wanted her around. She did want to believe in this, and she decided to hell with it anyway. "...Alright, I'll hear what exactly it is that you have to say..."





Arthur
Arthur will be able to hear the loud sounds that would be Jolene being somewhat loud wandering around the areas past where he was. Some people clearly weren't very quiet when it came to walking around normally. He'd find a few other things listed on the computer that might be helpful regarding that machine if he wanted to open up the files on it, but there wasn't anything else specifically regarding the members of the Sisterhood or anything like that.

Elara
The woman let out a slight sigh, turning to look over at Elara and Psylocke. "Yes, I do know the group that you are looking for, I actually pointed them in the right direction of what it is that they were searching for. I am known simply as Spiral, and the ones that you are looking for are downstairs," Spiral said, before she walked over and pushed a panel on the wall, revealing an elevator, "Since they have yet to come upstairs once more, I assume that they likely went to the lower levels of the facility. We have several elevators like this one hidden throughout the building, you may use it if you like."

"How did you end up here and away from Mojo Spiral?"

"That is something I do not wish to discuss with you Psylocke, but perhaps that could be a story for another time..."

"Thank you for your assistance." Psylocke said as she walked towards the elevator.

Spiral seemed to ignore Psylocke now, and turned to look directly at Elara, lowering her voice a bit. "This is your one warning here... There are several people here who can mess with your mind, make you see things that aren't really there, and mess with your perception of reality. They also can mess with the minds of others. So if I were you, I would not trust anyone who is here. Not even those you came into the building with..."

"Vertigo, let's get going," Psylocke said, waiting in the elevator for her.



Demetria Clarke


Location: Sisterhood Base - Lower Level
Skills: N/A


Sapphire was just watching all of the interactions around her, not sure what else to exactly say about the entire situation. Things certainly were a bit strange with everything, and she wandered over to the machine, looking at it. It definitely wasn't the simplest of machines, she could easily tell that one, but she didn't say anything. Andrew seemed hell bent on destroying the machine though, and she was perfectly fine with the idea of smashing the thing.

"Nothing bad will happen if you smash it, there might be a few zaps or whatever from the electrical components maybe, but probably not since the EMP blast essentially shut it all down and what not, so you don't need to worry about that," he said to Evelyn nodding his head slightly as he walked over and started messing with something.

"Cool, blasting stuff is always a fun thing."

"Yeah, I just don't get the point of cupcakes - are they cake or are they not?" Andrew said to Watts with a bit of a shrug. "I mean if it is cake, why not just get a full sized cake and not the little mini cupcakes or whatever, that just is really weird to me."

Sapphire glared more or less at Jolene when she walked into the room, and was not surprised at all that Bella had been the first one to act, placing a sword to her neck. "I'd answer her question if I were you, otherwise the whole situation might end a bit poorly for you," she said with a slight smirk, just staring at Jolene.


Sapphire


Location: The Hospital
Skills Medical Knowledge



Sapphire was not too thrilled at Vulcan acting like he was better then him, that injury she had given him should have taken him down already, but it didn't for some strange reason. James tried to knock the guy out with a cash register of all things. That was just a dumb thing to do in her opinion, and it hadn't surprised her at all that Vulcan had essentially managed to grab onto him. Casper was acting a bit stupid in her opinion, like why would you just essentially "threaten" like that without obviously proving something? At least Waverly seemed to have a decent idea and had gotten a sedative to knock him out. However, the instant he clutched at his chest she knew that something was wrong.

"Did you remember to get the air out of the syringe and needle? Also where exactly did you hit him with that? It doesn't really matter but it would determine whether or not you caused a venous air embolism or a arterial air embolism," Sapphire said as she raced over, ignoring everyone else at this point. She had gone full on medical textbook at this point, and she grabbed onto Vulcan and more or less lowered him to the ground, before she yanked her coat off. "He's suffering from a Myocardial infarction, hence why he clutched at his chest. Someone go into the gift shop and see if there is any aspirin in there now!" she snapped instantly as she yanked her coat off and used it to stop the bleeding that she had caused earlier. They needed to keep the blood flow going and stop the blood clotting somewhat, which was something her powers weren't exactly good at. Sure, she had severely injured the guy, but she wasn't going to let him die.



Jack Theriot


Location: Basement of the Bar-> Creepy mansion like place
Skills N/A



Jack was getting a bit tired of everyone sitting there arguing. It was seemingly common to him, and now he was more or less just wanting to get away from everyone else, no matter how reckless it was. "You all need to stop alright? And Max, lighten up, since might I remind you that usually the first thing you want to do is create light when a room is dark unless you have night vision, which from what I know, no one does. I get it, you are annoyed, most people are, hell you all are driving me crazy with all of this yelling, but that is just my thoughts on it. You won't get better at your powers unless you try to use them for small things, like creating a light source. Now if you all don't mind I'm going to do something reckless," he said, before he simply stepped into the elevator and hit the button to go down, waving slightly at the group as the door shut.

When the doors opened up again, he froze slightly, seeing the room around him.

There were 7 different hallways heading off in different directions and he was in the middle of a circular room. There were weird things all around the room, looked like that weird museum from the Freak Show season of American Horror Story. Then there was what looked to be various pieces of stolen artwork lining the room as well. "...Well isn't this a bit creepy..." he muttered under his breath, before he heard music coming from the hallway directly in front of him. Making his way slowly forward, he made his way to the room ahead, and found himself in a music room of sorts, with the piano playing itself. Seeing something on the piano, he walked over and picked it up, a file labeled with the name E. Theriot, and when he opened it up, all he saw was a picture of a baby. That certainly was weird, as the rest of the file was empty.

Then there was the sound of the door shutting behind him.

Turning around to face the door, he raced over slightly and tried to open it, but it seemed like the door was locked behind him. "Damn it," he muttered, trying to get the door open and failing at it. He was trapped in that room, with no way to get out at the moment. Now what exactly was he supposed to do, considering he just walked right into a weird villain lair of sorts that was some freakish museum slash old mansion sort of place, and now he was trapped in a room with a piano that apparently was playing itself.


Theresa Sparks and Frederick Flynn



Location: The Common Room - the Hub
Skills: N/A


Sparky just rolled her eyes slightly at Raynor's words. She didn't really know what to say to that one, "Wow Ray, so nice to me aren't you?" she said to him shaking her head ever so slightly. This was definitely getting a bit out of hand with the reactions everyone else was saying to certain things and what other questions were being posed. Sparky giggled a little bit, but for the most part, she didn't have to drink. None of the questions really caused her to need to drink anything.

"...Can't believe some of things questions, I kind of feel a bit targeted here," Flynn said, but unlike just about everyone else, he did take a shot (having decided to do shots of Fireball Whiskey) to the question that Tempest had said. He had still been in school when he had done that, and looking back now he kind of thought it was dumb and weird. Unfortunately for him (or a good thing depending on how much someone wanted to get drunk) to Oliver's question about drinking, and yet again to Bonnie's thing, since unfortunately for him, he remembered two alternate realities. Hearing what Raynor had said, Flynn leaned over slightly to look at him, "Wrong reality dude," he muttered under his breath so that only Raynor could really hear him. He rolled his eyes again at Harry this time, before he took another shot to the whole fire thing.

She had been staying relatively quiet for the most part, she let out a bit of a sigh as she ended up taking a sip of her drink to when Harry had mentioned setting something on fire. It had been an accident way back when she was in school. She had been messing with something in a lab, she didn't even remember what exactly it had been now that she thought about it, and the next thing she knew something was on fire and the fire alarm was blaring. "Ok, I'll take a turn... Never have I ever gone skinny dipping," she said with a shrug.

"Wow, now I'm definitely feeling targeted," Flynn said, shaking his head as he took another shot. This was getting a bit ridiculous in his mind, but now he was realizing just how many dumb things he had done in his life. "Alright, time to see about getting a few of you to start drinking... Never have I ever attended Sci-Tech," Flynn said, looking at everyone else around him, knowing he'd get a few people with that one. Sparky was silent, as she just took a drink for that one.


Congratulations to my people over in X-Men!





After 8 months, and involving a grand total of 19 player characters between 3 different role-plays (my own X-Men role-play as well as @Morose's Agents of SHIELD and Gifted role-play) but we have finally done it! They have officially saved the universe and changed reality back after Wanda Maximoff created the world of House of M! Who knows when these heroes will all cross paths again, but I assure you, it likely will happen. Now the group has both of the Maximoff twins on the side of good, and rumors are even around that the Scarlet Witch might join the Avengers.

I'd like to thank every single person involved in this crossover, even those who aren't from my own RP. This all wouldn't have even been possible without the dedication of those who were in the role-play. So a big thank you to @Morose@Nallore@FantasyChic@KazAlkemi@Kirah@Trainerblue192@Achronum! Without all of you, this crossover never would have happened. Especially to those of you who weren't even originally in the role-play, you took the time to participate in it, even though it meant spending a little more time every week to create a post for it, you all stayed with it, and for that I am glad.

X-Men: Darkness Rising, now after 1156 posts and over 2 years is heading into it's 5th story arc! To think when I first created the RP, I had actually planned on ending it after 5 arcs, but things change and now who knows? We might get another 5 after this if people still enjoy it and still want to keep going. This wouldn't be possible without the players, and here's to another great arc as the X-Men players move on from this arc to face their next great foe, the World-Eater Galactus!




Guin, Marygold, Max, Niah, Carolina, and Tinley
Featuring: October, Iron Man, Quicksilver, and the Scarlet Witch


Location: Second Floor Hallway - the Palace
Skills: Mind Control, Telepathy, Astral Projection

Guin had decided not to waste her energy arguing with the flamboyant mutant. She could have pointed out how he had ignored her earlier, that he had specifically apologized to Pietro by using his title to preface it, and that his attention had not been on her during it - but what was the point? He had attacked her intelligence, the very thing that made her special. And if she was honest, he just wasn't worth it. He was a nobody. When this was all over, odds were that she would never see him again anyways. Once the group stepped through their provided portal, they ended up in the second floor hallway of the Palace. "Piet, is she nearby?" Guin asked him.

October was remaining by Carolina, a ball of fire in her hand as she was at the ready for an attack.

Carolina had followed everyone else into the portal to the second floor, she looked around the hallway so far there wasn't really anyone there yet which was a good thing. She remained pretty close to October looking over at her and gave her wife a slight smile, it did remind her of the time when they first met. "Kind of like old times huh?" Carolina said looking over at October, before looking over at Pietro who could track his sister down easily.

Niah nervously wrung her hands and tried to touch the non-existant necklace. She felt like she had just been shoved in a random group since she had little value in this type of situation. She tried to think of how she could help the others against Wanda. Her only experience with Wanda had been for a short time during the Ultron world. Wanda had only worked with them because Pietro had been killed by Ultron. But a part of her wondered if she remembered that world and if not could they make her?

Tinley followed the others through the portal. A mix of team members she knew and did not know from her past, but they were all in this together, if only for the moment. While the others took care of the remaining forces, they would see to the Scarlet Witch. The only question was if she would change things willingly or through force? She didn't expect a simple conversation to do the trick though. That would be too easy and if this world taught her anything it was that nothing here is too easy.

Max was more than apprehensive about the team he was paired in. Not a single soul that he knew and two people he had attacked just moments ago. This all gave him bad flashbacks to his first mission with an untrusting party and the mess that ensued after. If this was going to happen they needed to work as a team. Max placed one hand over then other, palms faced down and held parallel to the ground and perpendicular to his waist. He closed his eyes briefly as he pictured the cane he wanted to summon, a sturdy dark wood with copper and bronze fixtures to match his outfit. It bared a resemblance to cudgels monks would use in a shaolin temple. The cane began to manifest from his hands downwards to the floor, forming itself before he got a good grip on it. Max held out his hand and the same energy continued to swirl, darts beginning to form in his hand as he looked upon with some disappointment. He may have been able to move past using words in this world, but it was still difficult to manifest items. He gave a short sigh before trying again, concentrating on the task at hand and pushing out all other thoughts and noises. He managed to create a small taser that could be propelled at an enemy to help stun them and their system with a massive amount of volts. "Guin, take this. I'm sure you know what it is and how it can be used, if you see an opening take it."

Pietro, not caring too much for Max, and considering the fact that he had essentially insulted Guin, walked right over to Max and was standing right in front of him, in his way. "You do realize she's smarter then you by a long shot. You insulted her too, you attacked her too, you should have apologized to her, but you didn't. Insult her again, or cause problems for her in anyway, and I'll start ripping out vital organs and see how long you'll survive missing a few things, got it?" Pietro snapped at him, glaring. Now he heard Guin's question, and nodded his head. "Yeah, she's up ahead right now..."

"Something tells me she already knows we're here and probably is waiting for us obviously. So let's just hurry this up and fix everything." Tony said, walking along ahead.

"...Well yeah, pretty sure she does, any specifics on where her room is Pietro? Or what we might more or less find there?" Mary asked, figuring that it was best to distract him from Max. Since Max clearly didn't really know how to shut up about anything. Now she was starting to question why they would let Max, Pietro and Guin all be in the same group to do stuff.

"She's in that room," he said, pointing at a door just ahead. "...Don't think the door is locked or anything."

Guin raised an eyebrow, looking at the taser Max had offered her. Tasers were single shot and she wanted something with a little more kick - and given his insults to her intelligence, his otherwise innocence reassurance that he figured she knew what a taser was stung. She hadn't been a member of the X-Men or S.H.I.E.L.D. just to be treated like this. "Gee, thanks," she told him, taking the taser. "Dad, you got anything with a bit more kick? As much as I would love to just barge in there and fight Wanda with a taser... I kinda think if it comes to blows, it'll take more than one shot."

"Shall we, then?" October said, giving her companions a slight smile before she tried the door to Wanda's room and opened it.

Carolina stared at Max for a moment as he produced a cane as well as a taser handing it over towards Guin, it would take a hell of a lot more than a taser gun to take down Wanda as well. "You also do know that a taser is kind of useless against her to right?" Carolina pointed out, and Guin was one of her closest friends on the team. She looked towards October and gave her a loving smile before entering the room, seeing Wanda was sitting in a chair in front of them, hopefully it they can be civil about this and not attack each other.

Max stood there, still, unmoving, as Pietro rattled off some third rate insults. If he didn't know any better he'd say that the prince was a regular White Knight. It was cute, really, the many ways one could express love. Even if one of those ways was exceedingly annoying and counterproductive to the mission at hand. Looking around at the group and how each one had handled his gift to Guin, he began to draw some mental strings between the members of his group and how they felt and knew Guin. Sure there was Stark, but to have six out of eight members creating a gap when teamwork was so crucial was a huge mistake. While looking amongst the crowd it clicked on him that Anastasia hadn't been chosen for the fight with Wanda, a mistake that could cost the mutant race, and a potential ally lost. She may be part of the Hellfire Club, but she understood the meaning of working together in times of need.

Max watched as Wanda looked about the party, ducking himself behind the door so that she wouldn't see him cast and think he was attacking her. He began to conjure something he knew Guin would be useful with and with an aesthetic she could appreciate. He had believed she would know the taser was a last ditch effort, in case Wanda began to attempt to rewrite time again, the team however, failed to see that and so a far less subtle approach was now needed. He carefully crafted a small group of chrome explosives. They're glint somehow giving off an 80s inspired blue and pink combo just at the edges regardless of how you held it. Max held them close as he made his way towards Guin and whispered "Happy Hannukah, hope these are more to your liking." He stood behind Guin, using her body as a shield to hide the bombs that he would try to place in her hands behind her back.

They didn't have Novi or Maria so they couldn't force Wanda to remember the Ultron universe, could Novi even do that? That was something she had thought was a possibility when Tinley had asked her how her team had done against Ultron personally. She sighed and let the thought go. It didn't matter right now. She glanced at Tinley as October opened the door to Wanda's bedroom. She had been here previously so the room's appearance didn't surprise her. Though there was Wanda just sitting there. Niah looked at Wanda trying to understand her thinking. Wanda had rewritten the universe because Wanda perceived that Pietro was no longer loyal to her. She didn't want to lose her brother. Something Niah could empathize with.

How could Niah express that to Wanda though? Tell her that what she did was wrong and only made things worse. Niah knew that perfectly well. She had tried to change the past to bring back her sister. In a way, Niah wanted to thank Wanda. She now had memories with her sister that she never would have had the chance to have. But Pietro wasn't dead in the real world. Wouldn't it have just been easier to repair the relationship then change the universe? Niah thought this while looking at Wanda. In a way hoping that she would hear her thoughts and feel her own broken heart. Niah carried so much pain and guilt, but re-writing reality didn't fix any of that. If anything it felt worse then it had before.

Tinley watched the exchange between Iron Man's daughter, her boy toy, and the awkward magical kid with a sense of pity. Was now really the time for Days of Our Lives: The Sequel? They had a possible psychotic witch to take care of and restore reality. "Look, far be it from me to say anything since I don't know most of you lot, but dude, you fucked up real big and no amount of gift-giving, however incredibly badass it appears, is going to fix it," she told Max. Then she looked at Guin and Pietro. " However, we are all here as a team and need to work together. I have some experience working with dysfunctional teams and I know from that experience that it can be done. So put this little high school drama behind you and let's go restore the world, shall we?"

"How about you shut up?" Pietro snapped instantly at Tinley, starting to glare at her now.

"How about you all keep quiet, half the palace probably can hear you all arguing..."

Pietro shot a glare once more at Tinley, before following along to Wanda's room. Tony had given Guin a pair of Iron Man style gauntlets without a word as well. She was just sort of sitting back in the chair, looking at the group, twirling her hair a little bit. "I knew that you all would come here sooner or later... Knew it was only a matter of time before someone would show up to try and stop me... But I'm just telling you now, you are wasting your time... I prefer the world this way."

"...Wanda, you know that the world should shift back..."

"Why should it?" she asked, standing up from where she had been sitting, her hands glowing red. "You all came here expecting a fight, well odds are you are definitely going to get one."

Guin was slightly alarmed as the odd mutant gave her bombs with a Happy Hannukah as well. One moment he was attacking her, the next insulting her, and now he was trying to give her a gift? Maybe he had escaped from a mental ward or something, since his head definitely wasn't screwed on right - and the fact that he gave her bombs was problematic. They weren't here to kill Wanda. Bombs generally were only a non-lethal weapon of choice against people with healing factors and the Scarlet Witch didn't fall into that category. She took the bombs from him, mostly to keep them away from Max since she was worried what he might do with them, and she shoved them into the pockets of her coat. The gauntlets her father had given her were much more appropriate and could give off more than one hit each.

"Look, Maximoff, let's be real here - you're mad that your brother fell in love with me and left the Brotherhood. So ignoring all the obvious arguments about how Pietro still cares about you and wishes you would have gone with him, let's realize what you did - you basically are guaranteeing that whatever relationship you two had, you'll never have again. And if you want to fight someone over that, you can fight me," Guin told Wanda stubbornly. She knew the others would back her up in a fight against Wanda, but she was certain that Wanda had caused the change in reality because of Guin. "C'mon, let's throw hands."

Carolina looked at the others and then Wanda finally speaking, and her hands started to glow red slightly biting her bottom lip she really didn't want to fight against Wanda, she wasn't sure what she would be able to do without her sister if she did lose her. She had gone through a lot when October died. She looked over at October for a moment and kissed her slightly, before stepping forward hopefully no one would attack yet. "Please, cant we just fix this civilly?" She asked looking over at the others before speaking. "I totally get that you are in pain, having your brother leave you and the Brotherhood. "But think of the others who do remember the real world, and seeing those that they care for as well."

As Max watched the 'negotiations' proceed, he could already feel the fight that would no doubt ensue. Tensions seemed to be high and he wasn't sure how ready any of them were to actually face off against a mutant that changed all of reality. The idea was enough to send chills down his spine as Guin had decided to square up against the Scarlett Witch. Her hands began to glow a deep red, a sign of her magic starting to weave and bend, readying herself for what they may have in store against her. Max began to weave energy around his hands in a similar fashion. Black condensed energy swirling around as ribbons of pinks,blues,and purples weaved through the inky mass and speckles of white littered across. He stood there ready to sheild any and all who were attacked by Wanda.

"I am the worst person to be saying this, but this isn't right. Wanda everything about this world is wrong. Can't you feel that? You shouldn't have changed the world to suit your needs. Other people matter and you've taken so much away from so many people. You've hurt them, and you're hurting yourself." She really wasn't one to talk about changing reality.

Tinley merely shrugged as Pietro yelled back at her. Silly of her to think the boy could see reason. He was some brat who needed to be seen to, but they had bigger fish to fry as Wanda made her appearance. Guin stood up to her, challenging her. Seemed like a waste of time in her opinion. Best to just deal with the princess, prevent her from doing anything else, maybe controlling her, and then things got back to normal. Talking rarely, if ever, worked out. She crossed her arms, waiting for the inevitable where she would have to go in and kick ass. And boy, did she REALLY want to kick this bitch's ass.

"The world seems alright to me. How do you think this world seems wrong? How are we supposed to say what is right and what is wrong. There are people who benefit from one world, there are people who benefit from the other, how is it so difficult to realize that in reality no one can actually argue which is the true world. For all you know, this could have been the real world, and the other the fake, and you wouldn't even know the difference."

"Wanda, this isn't right and you know it..." Pietro said softly, looking at his sister.

"Look, we get it, you wish things were different in reality, but changing everything? You messed with a lot of lives Wanda... All because you wanted your family back together, even though you know for a fact that will never happen with Magneto for a father..."

"...I know that, however I prefer this world, and would like to keep it that way," she said coldly, before in an instant she sent a blast flying at Guin. Pietro instantly grabbed Guin and pulled her away in a flash, and now what was right where Guin had been was a rather large hole in the wall. Had that blast actually hit her, Guin likely would have been killed instantly.

Guin's heart was pumping and she reacted by instinct, firing off a few repulsor blasts at Wanda - all of her hits connected, but they didn't seem to do too much to the Scarlet Witch. She had fought Wanda before, but she never had been so painfully aware of the fact that Wanda wanted her dead. She couldn't help but be surprised that Wanda had left her alive in this world, that she hadn't just wiped her out of existence to keep Pietro all to herself. "Tinley... Mind doing your magic?" Guin asked, her ears ringing slightly.

October wasn't going to wait around to be asked to help out and she shaped her fireballs, throwing them at Wanda only for the Scarlet Witch to deflect them.

Carolina watched as the Scarlet Witch made the first attack, closing her eyes for a moment and sighed she decided to not to try and talk it out which was sad. "I'll try and possess her, just watch over me." Carolina said as her body fell to the ground, as her spirit left her body again and flew over to Wanda, only to be forced back twice.

Max watched as Wanda's crimson energy blasted towards Guin, Pietro reaching her in time before his spell could finish off to shield her body. The crater left behind told him everything he needed to know about how seriously she wanted them gone. Max began moving his arms in large sweeping motions, the same cosmic energy he wielded in his hands now appearing diagonally to his right and behind Wanda. A clone of Max stood there, energy in hand and ready to assist. They worked together to complete a third simulacrum forming a triangle around Wanda as each began to chant rhythmically, hands aside and energy swirling around them. As they finished off the incantation they thrust their hands forward, bands floating out in an attempt to bind her hands and mouth. As they approached her the bands suddenly spun around and flew towards each one of the three Max's, binding them in the same manner he wished to do her.

Niah frowned as they started to fight Wanda. This wasn't going to work. Her eyes darted around the bedroom and attention was drawn to the photo from earlier. The memory that she had gotten from it was important. Niah dashed over to the photo, thankfully not being hit by any of the stuff the others were throwing around. "If the other world doesn't matter then why do you have this?" She held it up. "You're clinging to something that doesn't exist." Niah looked at Max, "If this isn't important, then we can just burn it."

Tinley knew words would not work, so why some continued was beyond her. She nodded her understanding to Guin and tried to insert her mind into Wanda's. She knew it would not be easy, her first attempt forcing her out. But the second attempt she managed to get inside. "Wanda, see reason. This reality will not last. Turn things back around." Before it could hold, she was booted out, but the imprint was there. Wanda would think it, perhaps they can act. "Her mind is strong, I can't get a solid hold. If you want me to be able to, she needs to be weakened," she whispered to Guin.

"...What is that?" Pietro asked, walking over and looking at the picture in Niah's hand.

"Looks like a picture of the two of you," Mary commented with a shrug.

"Don't mess with that!" Wanda snapped, before the picture frame was surrounded by a reddish glow and was yanked out of her hand, and she caught it. Looking at the image in her hands, she glanced back upwards at the group, glaring once more at them.

"...Wanda where did you get that picture? I don't exactly remember it..."

"It doesn't matter, it is a time long gone by," Wanda said, before she sent off a few blasts at the group in general, but it was somewhat obvious that she at the least was a little bit distracted, as her blasts all missed by a mile it would seem, hitting the wall around them.

"...I'm going to try pulling out the memory of that photo," Guin whispered to Tinley. "That should give you the opening to force her to fix things." Guin then concentrated, closing her eyes. She reached out tentatively until she touched Wanda's mind and as gently as she could, she sifted through Wanda's memories until she found the one she was looking for. Her head was pounding slightly from the overuse of her powers that day but it didn't matter. She got the memory right at the forefront of Wanda's mind, hopefully distracting her more and getting her to be willing to listen. "Wanda, if you want to have that relationship with your brother again, then you'll turn things back," Guin told her. "....You and Pietro can be happy together," she then added, her hands shaking slightly at that last part. She didn't want to treat Pietro like something to be traded, but if he needed to be with his sister, Guin's love for him was not fragile. She could endure without him.

Carolina looked around at everyone else in the room as Wanda tried to attack all of them, but luckily none of the blasts hit her body, she watched a little bit longer, before trying to possess Wanda again only for her to be pushed back out again, groaning as she moved back to her body again and stood up. She listened to Guin's proposal for a moment she did hope that if they could fix things and they could have some kind of relationship together.

One of the Max's began to struggle and writhe as he attempted to break free of the bindings he had created. Sweat dripping down his brow as he tried time and time again, finally he was able to set himself free and then undo the binds of the other clone. The newly freed Max turned to Guin as he hoped she would work alongside him. "I need that memory Guin, can you give it to me please? I think I have an idea." he whispered once he made his way to her. She agreed and suddenly a vision flashed inside his mind and he began to attempt to recreate it amongst them all. His energy began swirling as if a low smoke around everyones feet, trees began to sprout and tower over them in the room, though they were faint and illusory. A young brunette girl ran past Wanda towards her right, ghostly trails following behind as a small silver haired boy tried to keep up. "Come on Pietro! Hurry up you are so slow." the small girl giggled as the young Pietro was now next to Wanda. He was panting and having a hard time catching up to his sister, running after her still and past the real Wanda. "Slow down Wanda, you know I cant keep up with you!" The images faded back into the cosmic mist beneath their feet as a rundown house began to appear before Wanda, the trees surrounding as vividly as it would in her mind. Sitting there on the porch was the twins, next to each other. Max held the image for her to see, keeping the sound of their laughter echoing around Wanda.

The group had run with her plan brilliantly. Hell, they had perfected it, brought the memory that Niah had seen from the photo the other day to life around them. Niah was impressed and honestly terrified. Niah wanted to say more, and drive it all home but she looked at Pietro. It was his words that would matter here. Not her own, despite the parallels Niah saw between the two of them. She held in her mind the memory and put everything she felt about her own siblings into it.

With the others distracting Wanda with the memory of her brother, Tinley inserted herself into Wanda's mind, attempting to control it once more. "It's time to change reality back, Wanda. For your brother." However, the control could not hold. Wanda's mind was still powerful enough to prevent her from controlling Wanda, but not enough that the suggestion did not take root. Tinley backed out, leaving the suggestion there. Hopefully Wanda, along with the others help, would see reason.

Pietro looked a little confused as he saw the images playing out in the room around him. The confusion disappeared though, as his mind essentially forced him to remember the real world. ...Guina, this world is really messed up, and I also realized that I might have been more then a little bit of a psychopath... Damn it, I've hurt so many people Guina... he said softly into Guin's mind, he was trying really hard to not panic.

"Damn it make it all go away! That life is gone, ripped away, and it'll never be like that again!" Wanda shouted at the group, before there was a flare of red as the illusion dissipated entirely. "It will never be like that again, ever, no matter how you try to think it could be!"

Pietro hesitated, thinking of what he could say in this situation, but he couldn't find the words. She was right, their life back in Serbia with their aunt and uncle was long behind them, especially considering they had to essentially run for their lives from the village, since they had thought Wanda was an actual witch.

"Wanda, you need to calm down... Yeah, sure, things might not be like that again, but they could be better then what they have been lately..." Mary commented, knowing for a fact how Wanda had reacted during what felt like an eternity ago during the incident with OMEN. She had had a bit of a break down, her powers going haywire when Pietro's future counterpart had died.

Guin doubted telling Wanda to calm down would help matters at all - no woman she had ever met appreciated that. Hey, hey it's alright - that wasn't really you. I love you, babe, she whispered into Pietro's mind, attempting to reassure him. For a moment, she considered switching bodies with Pietro and pretending to be him in order to convince Wanda, but she felt that the Scarlet Witch would easily see through that. "Anyone can find redemption, Wanda - hell, Darth Vader was redeemed in the end and reunited with his son... I know it's a huge cliché, but love will win if you let it - if you love your brother, then turn the world back. Become the hero of your story, not the villain."

Carolina thought for a moment as she looked towards Marygold and then over at Wanda and Pietro all Wanda wanted to do is be with her brother. "You can join us, be a member you can see your brother all the time, I can tell you love him if you change the world back you can be with him just change everything back." Carolina said while looking over at her wife for a moment and gave her a slight smile.

As Max heard Carolina speak, something clicked in him, a lyrical verse that spoke of siblings drifting apart only to be reunited again. He wasn't sure if this would work, or how well it would be received but...at this point in the game anything was worth a try. The illusions may have been swept away by Wanda but now all that clung in the air was Pietros voice. It began to sing and echo across the room, singing to Wanda. "Please don't shut me out again. Please don't slam the door. You don't have to keep your distance anymore. 'Cause for the first time in forever I finally understand. For the first time in forever, we can fix this hand in hand. We can go down this mountain together. You don't have to live in fear. 'Cause for the first time in forever, I will be right here."

"I've seen you do the right thing, Wanda. I don't know if you remember it, but you have. It was for Pietro then too." Niah didn't know what had happened to Wanda and the others when they fought Ultron, but she had been willing to do it. Willing to sacrifice herself to take down the thing that had killed her family. "If you don't let this illusion go you'll lose him here too." At least for Wanda in the real world her family was still around and she could repair the relationship, there was hope for her. Niah's hand went up for the necklace that she didn't have in this world or the real one anymore. She understood Wanda and wanted at that moment nothing more than to hug her sister one last time.

With all being done, though she questioned the need for a musical number, Tinley inserted her mind into Wanda's. The suggestion was there. Since Wanda latched on to it, she must be toying with the idea. So Tinley made it grow, made it surge in her mind. She would have a choice to make and Tinley wanted to make sure Wanda made the correct one. "The time to choose is now Wanda. What's done is done. Do the right thing and bring everything back to as it was and make this right." Tinley left, feeling a slight headache, but she knew she did all she could at this point. The rest was up to Wanda.

Wanda's shoulders shook slightly, as she heard everything around her. Before something odd occurred and she appeared to be laughing. "Oh you all certainly a bit of an odd lot," she managed to say through her giggles, nodding her head slightly. Pietro more or less looked somewhat annoyed at Max's insanity, figuring the guy in the real world probably was in an insane asylum or something, but none of that seemed to matter now, as Wanda's hands began to glow.

"...Wanda what are you doing?" Pietro asked her somewhat softly.

"...All of you are right. Maybe this wasn't the way to do things, and for that, I am sorry..." she said as a red haze filled the room, surrounding everyone, and slowly but surely, one by one they all began to vanish. "We have to live with the world that we have, and hope for the best..."

Everyone would come to somewhat back where they started, except it was more or less now a week later then the date it was when the world had changed. If anyone looked at a calendar, it now was December 18th, and they'd have no memory of what happened in the real world during that time.

Allison would have a little friend next to her. The little puppy had a collar around it's neck and an envelope in it's mouth which it proceeded to drop in her lap, barking happily.

Ally

I'm sorry I can't be there, after everything that has happened, well, I can't stay at the mansion, not until I figure out who I am.

The world has changed a bit since 2 years ago, and now I need to go find my place in it.

I don't know when you'll get this message, time was a little weird when it came to things shifting back.

I will come back to you, just might take me a little while, I just need to clear my head for a little bit.

Keep an eye on the little guy, he's there to keep an eye on you while I'm gone.

-Oshea




Later on Asgard



Klara was concerned about her cousin, knowing perfectly well what all had happened with her in that strange alternate reality. It was certainly a weird world, and Klara herself was glad things to have gone somewhat back to normal. One thing was for certain, she had a hunch that her cousin might see about leaving Asgard to go to Midgard, and she herself had been thinking about travelling there. Heading out of her home, she went towards the Bifrost, and she wasn't too surprised to see her cousin heading that direction as well. "Hey there Runa, where might you be off to?" Klara asked, racing over, though she felt like she already knew the answer.

Runa had her enchanted staff, Gandr, propped up against her shoulder. The staff had originally belonged to her maternal grandfather and he had given it to her what felt like eons ago - among all of her possessions, it was the only one she truly cared about. "Midgard," Runa answered her cousin, not ceasing her strides as she set foot on the Rainbow Bridge. The BiFrost was so close but yet so far - it was easily a fifteen minute walk to traverse the bridge.

"I figured that was where you were going... Mind if I join you? I have always wanted to see Midgard," she said, giving her a smile. It was true, but there was another motive behind her words. Klara knew that her father spent much of his time there, and she was curious as to why he'd spend so much of his time there. It always had made her wonder what was so great about Midgard, at least in this reality. The other reality she knew for a fact she preferred Asgard over it.

"...Alright," Runa hesitated slightly. "We're going to the land called Australia."

"Oh? Okay, sounds like fun."

Runa nodded slightly, walking down the Rainbow Bridge. When they arrived at the BiFrost, she saw Heimdall and she looked at him for a moment, wondering if he would grant her request. She was still considered a child per Asgardian standards, despite her age. "Heimdall... I'd like to travel to the land called Australia, please - on Midgard," she asked. "Klara too," she then added, not wanting to be left out.

"Oh? Very well," Heimdall responded, a slight smile on his face.

"Something wrong Heimdall?" Klara asked him, he sounded a bit strange in her mind, not quite like himself. It certainly was a bit weird.

Heimdall nodded, picking up his sword and inserting it into the BiFrost. "Yes, Princess, I am well," he reassured her. His golden eyes flickered over to the two of them, a malicious smirk coming across his face as he turned the sword, opening up the BiFrost - yet it was not to Midgard that he sent the two Asgardians. Klara and Runa vanished, and as Heimdall removed the sword from the BiFrost, his face morphed into a more familiar visage.

"Oh this is going to be fun..." Loki, the God of Mischief, mused to himself.

"Well, I mean I'm used to it somewhat now, either that or people tend to avoid me for the most part. Though partially because if anyone gave me a weird look that I couldn't exactly see Jason here would threaten them, or glare at them, depending. Usually if he went quiet it was him just glaring, I could always hear his threats if he chose the former of those two options," Janelle said, giggling slightly at the thought, not really too sure what else to say.

"Hey that was a totally reasonable reaction and you know it!" Jason protested somewhat, rolling his eyes slightly at his sister, knowing perfectly well that she couldn't see him rolling his eyes at her. Sometimes she could be a bit ridiculous, and sure he admitted perfectly well that he could be considered more then a little bit over protective, but that didn't necessarily mean anything. It just meant that he cared if people were mean to his little sister.

"Not too much of a reasonable reaction if you ask me," she responded, still giggling as the pair continued to follow Kristen to the Dining Pavilion now. She heard what Kristen was saying about the way the plates and goblets worked, and nodded her head slightly. That was kind of a cool thing to her, and made the most sense when she thought about it, since magic was clearly a thing and made it so that they didn't have to specifically make the food for everyone.

When Jason heard the question about where they were from, and he hesitated for a moment, thinking about the best way to answer that question. They had a bit of an accent to their words, that much was obvious, so he figured it was obvious where they were from initially. "Well, for the most part, we grew up in Galway, Ireland. However about 2 years ago, we ended up moving to New York, which is definitely a bigger place then where we are from..."



Marygold Isley

Mary more of just listened to Rebecca and Zeke as they explained more about the vision. She frowned slightly, not liking what exactly was being mentioned when they spoke more vividly of what the vision actually was. It definitely more then a little bit concerning, but it would need to be addressed rather quickly. They needed to figure out who exactly were the children of the gods that were mentioned, and it sounded like Rebecca potentially agreed that the child of Hypnos was the new girl.

Of course, that just left the mystery of the other two. There were a lot of different children of both Athena and Apollo, but maybe the child of Apollo was Zeke since he was nearby and saw the vision, and if that was the case, then may the gods help the world, as that would be a horrible thing to happen. The child of Athena was a bit of a crap shoot, since there wasn't anything that obviously linked one particular child of Athena that could possibly be the one mentioned. She was remaining fairly silent, just paying attention to everything that was more or less going on around her, hearing the others.
