Current Sorry for my lack of posts lately. I've just... been struggling to get the energy to write something up. I'm trying some new meds through so hopefully that will change soon.

Is there a Loki yet?
Ruink's head tilted a little bit at the mention of the 'three sacred treasures of the Gods', but for the time being he didn't question exactly what they were or where they might have been located. Instead the conversation seemed to swing towards general introductions as new people arrived and some of the old seemed to slip away quietly. Clearing his throat for a moment, he actually considered what he was going to say before finally he just went ahead and said it. "Hello, my name is Ruink and I am a hybrid. As for why I am here, when I heard that this meeting had been called I couldn't help but get this gut feeling that this gathering of various peoples was going to make for one hell of a story to tell to any descendants that I may be fortunate enough to have in my lifetime and between the antics of our masked leader who goes by the character of 'Warden' to the numerous people that I have seen but have not had the pleasure of properly meeting and getting to know yet, I feel that my gut feeling was correct. It's nice to meet you all."

Truth be told there was a rather wide range of different people from vastly different cultures that had answered the summons and gathered to join this 'Heroes Guild'. It was actually rather exciting! One day he might be able to tell his children about how he had traveled with and fought beside a friendly Stalfos and a woman who seemed to travel with cuccos! That Zora that had been traveling with them seemed to have been one of the ones that skipped out... most likely because they were heading towards Death Mountain.

@JoPo

Giving an internal shrug at the fact that the full blooded Zora fled the possibility of dehydrating, Ruink smiled as he turned back to Kagumo and asked "So what are these three treasures that you're looking for and what do they look like?"
I'll get a post up sometime tomorrow.
@Eklispe

So the gnomes aren't going to commit a mass human genocide? Oh well to each their own.
Spring had come to Tushienia, but with it came the beating of drums to match the march of an army. Humans and goblins, necromancers and shamans and even the living and the dead were marching to the beat of war, marching to go and aid their allies in Duringis against the invading Pualirian Empire. The defensive pact that had been made between the two nations would be upheld.

.......................................

Valtegaarde, Capital of Tushienia, HQ of the Engineers and Tinkers Union

Ponders beamed like a father watching his child put together his first bicycle; Sitting in the middle of the workshop was a masterpiece of mechanical engineering. Of course it was still merely a prototype and several copies of it would need to be made in order to properly test its limitations and see what happened when one of these engines failed (By sabotaging the hell out of them for the purpose of the test) but for now the head of the Engineers and Tinkers Union simply admired their creation.

Already his mind was awash of ideas of what the raw power that the engine in front of him could create could be used for.

@Romero

So did the Chalezian Union ever exist at all or has the Republic of Andinon always been in those lands?
So how many people are still here? Just to get an idea of who's wandered off and all that.
@BlackRose@Legion02@Romero

I know that the collab that I was doing with BlackRose has more or less been finished up. Not sure what they still have to do through, but hopefully they'll get it wrapped up before your post Romero.
@DrewVonAwesome and @Bright_Ops presents... Loki and Tony Stark!

Tony quietly started to slip into the small craft that was going to take him out, "Hey how are ya? Listen go ahead and take me to Stark Tech HQ in New York." Tony said to the pilot who nodded back to him. "On the way though would it be a deal breaker to go to a place where I can get a burger? I'll totally buy you lunch in exchange." Tony was about to start strapping into a seat when he felt Victoria behind him. She was clearly bothered about what had happened with him and 'MURICA. Tony held up his hands with a bit of a smirk to her. "No no don't sweat it. I'm sure the guy is a nice guy." Tony didn't buy that idea. "Look, even considering what happened I'm still in on the consultant gig. If nothing else because it'll be good for the job, and I think Fury hates me a bit still for the whole no longer making weapons thing." The thought about that made Tony dread the thought of actually meeting Fury. He had met him before when his dad was running things and even when Fury was being nice, he was still intimidating.

"Don't worry about me, I'll be fine." Tony told her finally as she started to leave. With that settled now Tony finally sat down on the seat and put on the seatbelts. "Alright lets get this show on the road." Tony called over to the pilot. "Actually sir," The pilot called back, "I just got the call to wait, someone wanted to see you." Tony groaned at the news, his hands sliding down his face. "Oh God it's not Captain 'Murica is it?"

"Trouble with Captain America?" A familiar voice asked with keen interest from beside Tony from a seat that had been empty until Loki had decided to simply pop in with a playful smile on his face. "Sorry about the delay, I wanted to drop by and make sure you weren't dead and Fury was kind enough to help out with that. How you doing kid?"

Sighing in relief Tony smiled a bit at the sight of a strangely already comforting sight. "Yeah just... seemed like the guy already had his mind set on me before even meeting me you..." Tony was about to ask only to realize who he was talking too. "Who am I kidding, you more than anyone know what I'm talking about." Tony stated with a brief chuckle.

Tony held up his now healed arm. "Yeah Victoria healed me up, so I feel tons better. I'm just going to head back to work since I'm all straightened up here. Guess for this thing they're doing they want me to be a tech consultant for this project. I'm in for pretty much business reasons." He quickly realized that if things are how they seemed, Tony for this project would be taking orders from 'MURICA. That was a horrifying thought...

Shaking it off Tony remembered something, reaching into his wallet he pulled out a small business card and handed over to Loki. "This is my personal cell number, I mean I'm not bragging or anything but I don't just go giving this out to anyone. Also next time you get a chance stop by Stark Tech. I want to give you a card to access my personal elevator and will give you access to all of the business. Down to being able to just pick up any of our products." Tony scratched the back of his neck, realizing how little he gets to show this kind of genuine feeling to someone. "Just... I really want to thank you for saving my life you know? Just... thank you man. I seriously owe you one so I think this is the least I can do."

Loki nodded his head with an expression on his face that not only got across the fact that he had been there and done that, he had done so that many times that he was on such good terms with the traveling staff that they happily invited him to their Christmas Party every year. Still, he managed a chuckle. "You can say that again."

Loki listened as Tony explained what his plans for the future seemed to be and the business relationship with Shield that he appeared to be embarking on, tilting his head somewhat to the side as he noticed the look of absolute horror that seemed to cross Tony's face. It didn't take much to guess what was on his mind. "I'll see what I can do about being the member of this new team that actually talks with you. I'm sure that this new Captain America will be to busy trying to live up to the image of his predecessor to complain to heavily about letting someone else talk to someone he doesn't get along with."

The offering of the card with the cellphone number on it and what was pretty much permission to access everything that Stark Industries had was honestly something that Loki was honestly caught off guard by the sheer level of reward that Tony was heaping on him just for saving his life. It was actually rather touching... Accepting the card, Loki took a moment to memorize the number on it before tucking it away for safe keeping despite it not longer really being needed. Still, Loki couldn't help but grin playfully as he started to speak "You know, normally when someone wanted to sleep with me they would offer to take me out to dinner or something. Alas if the way you were looking at me when I was talking with the rather lovely Pepper earlier was any indication you're not into men."

Tapping his chin a couple of times as if in mock thought, it wasn't until the third tap that there was a noticeable change in Loki's appearance. Namely the fact that he was now female with a slightly altered outfit. "If only there was some way to change that..." Loki purred playfully.

Tony needless to say got a very confused boner.

"Man I didn't mean it like that." Tony retracted fairly quickly at Loki and the fact that Loki as a woman was pretty damn sexy. Again though there was so much wrong and weird about it Tony couldn't let it all sink past the superficial. "I mean don't get me wrong you are very pretty." Tony chuckled, it was fascinating to see someone who not only proved that magic was real, but that it had such a wide range potentially of uses. He would be very interested in seeing what Loki could do... not in the way Loki was insinuating at the moment but in other ways. Though Tony had to also wonder about how Loki chose the look he just changed into. If Greek mythology was any indication, Tony could only wonder what kind of freaky stuff the Norse mythological beings were into.

"I mean with Pepper... man don't think of it like that. I've known Pepper since we were like kids, we go way back..." Tony didn't realize it but he was glaring at Loki a bit when Loki introduced himself to her, he cared about her but as far as he was concerned it was only in the sort of ways a friend would. He was probably digging a bigger and bigger hole for himself with every word he was saying by this point. So he adjusted his seat belt strap. "Anyways not to cut this awkwardly sexy scene short but I should be heading back to work." Tony noted. "What about you? I wouldn't mind giving you a tour of the headquarters if you want to tag along." Tony paused shaking his head, "And no I don't mean it like THAT."

Deciding to let the transformation drop now that the fun had been had, Loki was once again his normal, male self, if somewhat more amused then normal. "Thanks for the offer Tony but I have some business to take care of myself. Getting to know the lay of the land and all that. I'll make sure to swing by at some point in the future, alright?"

Tony gave Loki a thumbs up, having realized he now just knew so much more about the God than ever realized. "Yeah when you do check in with reception, they should know what's up.". With that Tony extended out a hand to shake and once Loki made his exit turned his attention back to the pilot. "So about that lunch..."
Many people believed that the benders of the Water tribes were the undisputed masters of ocean travel. To be perfectly fair they weren't wrong to think so either; Being able to control the waters that were running under your ship was a major asset when it came to traveling by the waves after all, but had the Air Nomads ever bothered to set their minds towards ocean travel Soro was fairly certain that they would have given the Water benders a run for their money for that title.

Standing on the deck of a fire nation trader ship, Soro breathed deeply before letting out another good, solid gust of wind in order to fill the sails of the ship and drive it forwards over the somewhat still ocean towards Ember Island. It had been part of the arrangement that he had made with Captain Lee; In return for passage to Ember Island, Soro would help provide a steady breeze that would ensure that the trading ship got there days, if not a week ahead of schedule. Considering that the arrangement meant that both of them got to where they wanted to go in a safe and timely manner it had been working out just fine for all concerned.

Ember Island was already visible on the horizon; Wouldn't be long now until he could take some time to relax on its beaches for himself for a time. Encouraged by the fact that the journey was nearly at an end, Soro started to put a little more effort into the gusts of wind that he was pushing into the sails then he had been before.
