Rose Buckner


Location: Camelot
Skills:





"Good name." Rose said to Megan. She was a fan of horror, especially campy stuff. She wasn't certain how she felt about living in a horror film though. She thought as more skeletons started to rise. She considered shooting Colby and leaving him to keep the skeletons distracted, but she wasn't that type of person, as tempting as it was.

Thankfully her ability with a bow meant she was good enough to fire past people including wizards who thought getting near melee was a good idea. Had they really never played a game of dungeons and dragons? Rose walked backward with the group carefully and shot off arrows. She was able to take out one of the skeletons but missed the other two. Walking and firing arrows was not a good combination. She was going to have to stop to shoot she decided. Rose also decided that she would work on that skill.




Colby Jackson


Location: Camelot (Secret tunnel!)
Skills:





No matter how many people yelled at Colby for his actions he didn't seem upset by them. That was until Matt was bit by one of the skeletons. Then Colby looked angry. He seemed to ignore any further comments about his actions and took it upon himself to get between Matt and any more skeletons. But of course, Matt had decided to join Merlin in casting spells.

"Don't you know anything." He snapped at Matt. "Wizards do not get into melee." He pulled Matt by the back of his shirt away from the skeletons. "Keep going. I'll keep the skeletons in the back from reaching you." Concern for the only person in the world that Colby cared for was written on his face. Even with both cats on his shoulders, he didn't seem to care. He would watch their retreating backs. "Take the cats." He added, mostly as an afterthought. Plopping both onto Matt's shoulders. The poor cats were probably confused about who they were supposed to be with.

This was his mess, he had thought that killing the first one would have been enough. What kind of nonsense magic was this place? Colby mentally sighed. He had always loved the idea of magic, but now he was growing of the opinion that it was stupid (even if it looked neat). Colby charged forward he hit skeletons but they stayed up, so he backed up and tried again. Putting all his weight into it. While he wasn't a big guy it was enough to take out five of the skeletons.



Ed Penior




Location: Xavier's Mansion: Blackbird Hangar
Skills: Thamaturgy: Shield



Ed's healing magic had worked. He was a little shocked. It definitely seemed like it had been his magic that had snapped Klara out of the spell Loki had her under. That was distressing though. Ed wasn't good enough to beat Loki's magic, not really. That had been entirely too easy and it made him uncomfortable. He didn't particularly want to trust Klara just yet. If she went back under Loki's spell he did not want to be next to her.

He plugged his ears quickly as Guin demanded it. A lot had happened while he had been working on is the spell. "Annie are you okay?" He asked after realizing she had been tossed by one of the hippos. Guin had been able to defeat the hippos at least. With those dispatched, and Klara no longer extra stabby (for now) it was timed for the next roll of dice. Ed thought about it and realized it was his and Annie's turn again. "Annie, I'm going to roll." He said and limped over to the board, picking up the dice and rolling them. The pips were two and four on the dice, for a total of six. That wasn't great as Ed and Annie were the last ones to go before Elizabeth and Carolina. Ed didn't know how it would turn out for them. Their turn was next. Was the game doomed now? They'd never be able to finish? Or would it just skip their turn?

He searched his memory of the movie and it came up mostly blank he seemed to remember that they got Robin Williams' character out before it would have been his turn again. He leaned over and looked at the glass half-cabochon on the board and read the riddle.

Beware the floor on which you stand,
the ground is quicker than the sand


Ed blinked. He knew this one. He remembered it from the movie very clearly. His hand darted into his pocket and he touched the small shield there. Around him and Annie bubbles of translucent orange snapped. Unfortunately, even with the shields, they were still sinking.

Manny nodded and pulled the steak knife that he had kept from their experimenting earlier out of the towel he had wrapped it in and awkwardly shoved into his waistline. "You sure Y?" Manny shortened the robot's name further.

They only nodded but glanced at Cal "That's a good idea. You can throw the limiter down too at that time. They might sense that and ignore the rest of the evidence. I don't know about pain. I can't really eat pain pills though so I will handle it." They looked back at Manny, nodded, and knelt down to make it easier for the guy to access their neck.

Tessa started off back the way the group had come. "I'll go with you." Gordon said following after her. She gave him a nod and smile and the two hurried off. Gordon would have a good idea of what liquid could be used since he was a cook.

Meanwhile, Manny started a gentle cut into the back of Y's neck. His hand was steady. The military and medical experience he had pre-space was clearly helping the situation. He was probably the best choice out of the group to be doing the unusual surgery.

It took a few minutes and was messy. Manny had Luke hold the towel near the cut to keep the green fluid from going all down Y's back. Tessa and Gordon weren't back by the time he had finished though. Y was shaking a little, but it was not from pain. There was relief written on their face. "Thank you." They whispered out a gentle sigh.




Sector Two Group Containment - Galley


With the threat dealt with the group that belonged to Sector Two seemed to relax a little. One of their numbers had found help somehow. They didn't know how, but they were thankful. There were now three dead of the twelve that had woken in Sector Two and one was fading that direction. Even with the attention given to him he probably wouldn't survive another thirty minutes at best without the transfusion. Lucky for him there was one person who was medically trained. She went to the machine and was able to figure out what was needed. She also knew that there was universal donor blood. With that information, she set up the guy with a transfusion. The woman, dark hair and dark-skinned, worked calmly and efficiently.

The Roomba continued its futile task.






Location: Braddock Academy
Skills:





"You do know that I can only focus on one sense at a time and when I do I lose another one." It had been an odd part of her power that she never quite understood. It helped keep her from being overwhelmed but she had to be certain that she was safe if she did certain senses. Thankfully sound was easy enough to do. She'd only lose her sense of taste.

"Of course. And I have a better idea than you know Oliver." She had changed reality for her sister, to bring her back. It had worked too, even if it hadn't been in the way she anticipated. She gave Oliver a reassuring smile.

As they debarked the jet, thank you Agent 13, Niah followed after Oliver. This was his mission and his life. More importantly, his life that she felt like an intruder on. She didn't know Oliver all that well. They had only really interacted on Christmas, and then a few times since then.

"Pleasure to meet you Betsy Braddock. Thank you for letting us land and everything. We appreciate your assistance." Niah told Braddock after Oliver introduced her.

The caffeine was a good hit to Matt's system. He was dressed down for what he normally wore, but at least he had a button-up shirt on still. Button-ups were a joy post top surgery. He smiled at the thought. Then nodded as Bonnie asked if everyone was ready. He finished his drink and climbed into the SUV. He trusted Cass's driving. She had been the one driving for their date even. He could drive, but preferred his motorcycle enough that he rarely drove a car.

With the team reduced down to four people, and one of those four a complete newbie to SHIELD. Matt was nervous. He knew Bonnie and Cass and easily trusted both of them at his side in a fight. Bonnie and Cass were terrifying in a fight. He knew where everyone was on the team about Hills laws. And Matt was nervous about Kwassi, he didn't know how much he could trust the guy. He frowned a bit thinking. Also, Kwassi was injured. Bonnie was good at medical stuff, but would it be enough for Kwassi in a fight? Would he be able to stand against Captain America?

Ah, the nectar of the gods, second only to apple juice, coffee. "That's fine." She said in regards to the cup size. "I drink it in whatever form is available, but creme and sugar is good." Hopefully, she could refill her cup after she finished it.

As people gathered at the table she shoved waffles into her mouth. She felt bad for eating more than one since it seemed like most people were only eating one. But she would never feel bad for drinking coffee. Andy listened to the conversation a bit and looked at the guy who was apparently Waffle God. Her eyes were a little wide as he talked and then seemed to talk to air.

Who was he talking to? Ben? Was Ben an invisible person in the group? A dozen follow up questions went through her mind, but her mouth was full of waffle so she didn't ask any of them. But Veil took control of the situation changing the subject away from who Ben might be. She'd have to ask one of the people who had been here a while. They must know, and she didn't want to ask it and interrupt anything important. Or honestly, be noticed too much. She liked being mostly ignored.




Location: Hotel Valhalla: Feast Hall of the Slain -> Elevator
Skill:





"Really is that so Lara? No one is underestimating it. Then why did the Thanes completely ignore Beth when she told them before Runa was claimed. Beth had a vision and she was ignored. What we've seen shouldn't be ignored. Ragnorok is inevitable. But we should at least try to slow it down. Going into Niflheim under-prepared will be the death of this quest. Going into Niflheim too late will be the death of this quest. I'm saying it needs to be timed correctly."

Dalisy followed Arnora into the elevator. Her chin up. She was pissed, but honestly when wasn't she. Dalisy was just taking it out on Lara. On the woman who was too much like her own sister. If they both ended up going on this quest Dalisy wasn't certain how that would turn out. For the most part in Valhalla she could avoid Lara, but going on a quest together that would be impossible. It set her teeth on edge.

Location: Argo III - Upperdeck
Skill: Electrokinis





Dragons. Actual dragons. Andy's eyes widened. Fear tore through her, but she kept her wits about her. Arthur didn't though. She had to protect him. Andy moved to be by his side again. "I'm here. We can do this. We have to do this." She told him and reached out and put her hand on his shoulder. "I know you're scared. I am too. But we have to do this. If we don't fight where does that leave us?"

Andy remembered when she had gotten her knife by the strange homeless guy he had told her something similar. He had said that her life depended on her being strong. On her defending herself. Without the dagger, he had given her she would have died at least a few times since then. Her lightning didn't always work. She could only hope that against dragons it would.

Leaving Arthur, she made her way over to a mast and tried to climb up. She couldn't get a good enough grip. Fear wouldn't let her. She gave up and decided to just try to zap the dragons. She tried to draw in a good blast, but it missed the dragon completely. Andy took a deep breath and tried again. A lightning blast hit the dragon dead on. It kept flying but it looked hurt. She smiled proudly herself.









Location: Traveling
Skills:



Niah had somehow ended up in the front seat. She didn't mind. She liked watching the road anyway. It was the part of her that liked knowing what was going on. It also meant she could keep an eye out for any monsters that decided to drop from the sky and blow up their car or some other horrible thing. She tensed and then released the tension from her body. Trying to calm down. She didn't even know why she was thinking of all the worst-case scenarios possible.

Emily smiled as Marco sat next to her. She watched him as he used his charmspeak on the driver. It was something about him that made him different. Not all children of Aphrodite could do that. It was a rare power. Similar to her control over madness. Not many had that gift either. "Well done." It made sense. They couldn't have the driver getting weird ideas from the group of teens in his car. At least her and Marco were eighteen so if anyone tried to stop them for being a bunch of delinquents they could pull the 'technically adults card'.

Ugh, adult... Emily's thoughts continued. The papers in her trunk mocked her. She had to get the applications out for college. She needed to talk with Marco first though. They wanted to go to college together so they'd have to find one that matched up with what they both wanted to study.

Niah glanced around, checking out behind them. Who knew maybe a monster was chasing the car? Or...She paused turned back around to face the front and pulled down the visor and used the mirror to watch. She didn't want it to seem like she was watching the car so she tried to act natural. It seemed like a car was definitely following them. "Hey, guys, not all at once, take a look back and tell me if you see the car following us." She said and looked back as if she was talking to one of the others in the seat. "I don't know how long they've been following us, but they changed lanes with us." She considered how they could get the driver to lose the tail, or confront them. "Should we see if the driver can lose them, or stop and confront them?" Her question was mostly directed at Mads and Nancy, but it was clear that anyone can answer.

"I vote to lose them if the driver can. We have a long day ahead of us, we should try to avoid a fight if we can." Emily said.



Colby Jackson


Location: Camelot (Secret tunnel!)
Skills:





"I'm no knight." Colby had never considered himself a hero. He was also an antagonist even in his own head, or at best an anti-hero. He was the reluctant hero type. "That's super cool!" Colby told Matt when he came back from having done magic. "I'll have to give it a try when we get a chance." Trying to do magic in a cramped corridor might result in some structural damage that Colby didn't particularly want to deal with the consequences of.

Colby didn't know what those certain reasons were. He also for a moment didn't know why he felt like he was being watched. It seemed like one of the skull's eyes were following him, which was impossible in the human world he had been raised in. Here, why not? He reached out and was about to touch the skull when Tink gave the directive to not disturb the dead.

Colby wasn't good at following directives. He was good at breaking them. He looked at Tink with a twinkle of mischief in his eye. Maybe it was the cat blood. He finished reaching forward and let his fingers carefully touch the skull. He wasn't certain what would happen, but he was too curious to care. These were consequences he was willing to deal with.

The skull stood up part of a full skeleton and reached for a weapon. Colby's face broke out into a grin. He had been getting a little stir crazy a fight would be good to get the blood moving. He activated his newly acquired shield and bashed it, the first hit didn't do much, but the second killed the skeleton. Two more seemed to have been activated by his actions.

Rose smiled back at Cass. It was nice to have reassurance. She trusted Cass at her back. Sierra was a good friend too. Those were the known elements. Everyone else she had only met today. That made them unknown elements. In a bar drinking situation, she'd be watching them the closest. Making sure they didn't have too much to drink and weren't harassing people.

Rose let out a disappointed sigh as she watched Colby touch the skull. It of course caused issues. Seriously, what an idiot. Rose let the book in her hand drop to the ground so she could draw her bow. She shot two arrows. One smashed through the skull of a skeleton that had risen. The other missed, but thankfully sailed past any of the others.

"Idiot. She literally just told you not to do that." Rose scolded Colby. He gave a careless shrug in response.


Ed Penior




Location: Xavier's Mansion: Blackbird Hangar
Skills: Sympathetic: Healing



"I am sorry for that Neil." Ed apologized as he realized what he had done. He dropped the shield around his friend. "Thank you Antoinette. I appreciate your efforts and words." He gave her a reassuring smile.

Ed wasn't certain if kissing Klara would get them the needed result. He was frustrated with her for invading his mind and controlling it. That had been something he had been trained to prevent for most of his life and that training seemed useless. He did get an odd idea that he wanted to try. But he would still need a hair or bit of blood from her to get it to work.

Getting the hair would be...difficult. He had some skill in hand-to-hand combat but had always been more of a staff fighter. Preferring to keep people at a distance, that was true for more than one aspect of his life. Klara was distracted at least and it took some effort but he was able to pull a hair from her head. He was sure she was pissed at him for that. "Cover me. I'm going to try something. Hope it works." He said ducking behind some of the others keeping them between himself and Klara.

He started the healing spell. Ed was once again frustrated with how slow he was at casting it. He had never learned to use it during combat. That had always been his sister's job. Ed forced that thought away, wished for a cigarette, and focused on the spell. Hoping that healing Klara's mind would do the trick. It was different than brute force trying to break the spell from within her mind, which was what Guin had suggested. This approach was much more his style, and he could apologize for stealing a strand of her hair after the fact. It wouldn't break any of the family laws either, which was much more important to him.






Location: The hall outside Agent 13's apartment
Skills:





Niah's heart broke a little hearing Bonnie disagree. She had a good reason and couldn't blame her. But Niah knew what the fall into fascism looked like. She bit her lip, but sighed and let it go. "Thank you." She said to Cass. Niah was actually thankful she was being sidelined from the mission. She didn't want to actively go against the mission.

Niah liked working for SHIELD. She remembered a conversation with Antoine. The last one. He wanted to help people. He wanted to make the world a better place. Niah didn't think that Hill's laws would help that happen. She felt it would be the opposite. Niah couldn't put words into his mouth, but she felt he'd be with her. They'd be trying to stop lists from being made. Being put on a list like that was a one-way ticket to being eliminated. People feared mutants too much. People feared different too much.

Turning to Oliver she asked, "How do you think we can get to England for your mother? Can you carry me and run there on the surface of the ocean? Or is that something you haven't tried?" Niah's voice carried a weight of sadness. It wasn't the same as it had been after Ultron, but still, it was there. She started walking with the group to the quinjet.







Location: The hall outside Agent 13's apartment -> Quinjet
Skills:





Matt made his way to the quinjet and looked for a change of clothes. When he found it he went to the bathroom to change and then came back out as the others joined; he smiled at Cass. He settled into a seat near her. He wasn't going to continue the argument about if they should go after Cap or not. "Glad you're okay. I was worried for a minute there. You just jumped. I'm glad both of you are okay." He added the last bit to Bonnie as well.

Asokho was being patched up, which was a good idea. Fake-Flynn had done a number on him. "Uh, before we leave. We didn't kill all of the Skrulls, what are we doing with the rest of them? I know Niah shot a few with the ICER darts." He didn't know what had happened with the one Oliver had fought, but he could make a guess since he was covered in blood. "Oliver, take a shower before you see your mom." He suggested.
