[Fade in on a young woman, looking up slightly. The angle highlights her overlarge eyes and long nose in an awkward way, because while the shot is well-framed she's not quite so accomplished at actually working the angles of her own particular face. Her expression is overly serious, with an edge of bewilderment that she is very much trying to conceal.]
Ok. So. I'm here, now. Along with all of you. So I don't have to explain how fucking weird all this shit is to you guys, right? Like, you've all gone through this.
So I'll just cut to the part where I did not have like, fucking, superpowers? Before I got here? Like, that just wasn't a thing where I'm from? And now I have these like, abilities and I don't fucking know what to do with this. I keep making cop radios play NWA which is fucking funny as hell but I think I should probably be like, practicing this shit? And also maybe finding more like, actual useful uses for it?
Anyway if you have any advice, I'm all ears. Or if you know of a "I used to be a normal person now I have to deal with this shit" kind of support group or anything that would be cool. Also how do I get these randos to leave me the fuck alone because I'd really like to be able to get like, a fucking cup of coffee without strangers wanting selfies with me. This shit is weird.

[When the feed opens, Foggy's—not actually drunk yet, but he does have a bottle of beer in front of him, and he is nursing it with the determination of the broken-hearted. For a moment it's possible that he just turned his comm on by accident, but then he glances in its direction and gives a tired little wave hi.]
I think we can all agree that people getting Ported out kind of blows. [Understatement of the year right here. He'd have invited Odin along, but the guy's happy with his boyfriend and Foggy doesn't want to burden him right now, so—ta-da.] Drinking alone also sucks, so—if anyone here recently lost someone they were friends with, someone they cared about or were seeing?
[He waves a hand to the surroundings around him: a shitty little dive bar in the midst of Maurtia Falls.]
I—really don't want to drink alone. [It's a sad confession, and after a moment Foggy seems to think better of advertising this to the general public. He sighs, reaches out, and shuts the feed off without saying the name of the esteemed establishment he's at.
It's Pour Unfortunate Souls, by the way.]

[ Amidst candidacy announcements for Ambassadorship and thought-provoking questions aimed at the viewer comes this garbage.
The video opens deep in the woods outside of Nonah, and there stands a particularly grumpy dude, staring down at the camera like he's three or four seconds away from breaking his comm in half. There are children around him. So many children. A dozen boys, aged six to nine, all of them in scout uniforms, screaming at the top of their lungs, hitting each other with sticks, throwing dirt at each other, generally causing havoc. One of them throws a milkshake at another boy, who screams and cries. Where did he get a milkshake? Who cares. It's the other kid's now. Seeing as he's wearing it.
The angry dude is pointedly ignoring all of them. ]

[ On the screen is a small boy with worried eyes. He holds up his right arm, which is encased in a white cast with the word LOSER scrawled across it in black ink. The S has been covered over with a red V, making the word LOVER instead. At first glance you might assume he'll have a personality as small as he is, but then he opens his mouth and promptly ruins the illusion. ]
Okay—just—this is ridiculous. [ He flings an arm out to the side for emphasis, barely missing the communicator. ] As if my life's not already messed up enough, now I get sucked into some weirdo alternate universe? And in this alternate universe, my hometown doesn't even exist, but there are bizarro world versions of my friends walking around in Florida, for some reason! Like that's not fucked up!
[ You might think this is the end of the rant, but it's only a pause while Eddie sucks in another breath and prepares his second point. ]
And this— [ He's waving some paperwork, presumably his own file, in front of the camera, but too quickly for anyone to make out what's written there. ] I can't live with total strangers! This is illegal, and unsanitary, and my mom will kill me if she finds out I moved into a house with people I don't even know. And why do I have a job? I'm a kid! My job is to be a kid!
[ Look, you guys, clearly Eddie is just getting started here. But luckily for everyone involved, just as he's preparing his third (fourth? ish?) point, little white pills start to fill his palms and clatter to the floor, and that pretty much ends any further ranting. Eddie's mouth drops open in utter shock and embarrassment, and there's a quickly muttered ] Oh Jesus [ before he reaches out and cuts the video feed. ]

alex took me on my first hike in the rocky mountains for my d/bday. it was really beautiful and i can't wait to go back to try some other trails. who's in? fave shots from the morning under the cut. (fun game for pros: try and guess which one alex is in.)
( hint: he's not submerged in the boiling hot geyser. )
(sorry for the gratuitous images of food you won't get to eat but i enjoyed eating said food if it helps)
i have more pics from the hike if anybody wants to see them. which you should bc the rocky mountains are so so so cool. sorry to everybody who helped build our house, bc i'm ditching it to live in the coloradan mountains like a troll, eating lichen and live chipmunks for sustenance. bye bye. (jk.)

[The transmission opens on the young woman sitting in front of her computer. For a moment she is quiet, fumbling a bit with her camera as she finds a suitable set up. She had never handled a camera before, it had not been important for her to learn anything about technology before, and she hoped that it wasn't too obvious. Her goals in her missions had always been to blend in as much as possible. And the inability to could mean her life. But this wasn't a mission. She didn't think so. And she wanted to blend. She wanted to connect. And this was a start.]
Hello, My name is Kei...
[Her voice finally comes through and she can't help but smile as she introduces herself, warmth swelling in her chest. After a second to regain herself she speaks again.]
I've heard this is a well used platform for people who are searching for answers. Asking questions. And I can tell you that I've had a lot on my mind since I've arrived. If you could bear with me, I have a something I'd like to ask for advice about.
[She falls silent, rubbing her lips with the tip of her fingers as she searches for her words.]
What is it like? To shop for clothes? To shop in general really... It's just that I've never been able to dress myself. Well, not dress myself, of course I dress myself!
[The woman laughs, adjusting the loosely fitting t-shirt hanging on her shoulders.]
I've just become so used to a strict uniform. I'd really like to have an outside opinion on what and where and...well... how... to get clothing. Thank you for your time!

There's a catch, however, and it's that Leia's locked this from any immediate family and friends*. She doesn't need the extra worry. Doesn't want anyone camping out on her front step. She might have missed someone, going through the directory this late, though. ]
I've spent the last hour trying to go back through what's available. I've also tried browsing what's online. It hasn't worked out so well.

[As always, the video starts with Alison perfectly centered in the frame and smiling. If she looks a little resigned, well it would hard to be enthused about being trapped back in this situation again when she had just been about to embark on a small vacation to see her kids. But her role as “suburban mother trapped in scandal after scandal in a small community” has prepared her to keep that stiff upper life and smile through the simmering anger. At least her reputation here is slightly better than back home.]
Hello everyone, this is Alison Hendrix speaking. It’s been about a year since my impromptu departure, but the Powers That Be have apparently decided that it’s time for me to return, so here I am!
My event planning business - Every Last Detail - will be available to service all your party needs again, so please spread the word. If I was in the midst of planning an event for you before being ported out, I can only offer my sincerest apologies for the inconvenience and a steep discount on your next event planning fees. As I’m sure you can understand, the situation was entirely out of my hands.
[There’s a frosty note in that last word, because while she was hardly devastated to leave this stupid place, the thought of having to build her business almost from scratch again is incredibly annoying. She can’t count on having Felix here to help out this time, and her sisters would likely continue to be unreliable when it came to things unrelated to the clone-life.]
I am also always on the lookout for exemplary individuals who want to join the team, so if you have a passion for event coordination, interior design, arts and crafts, or catering and cuisine, please feel free to get in touch. And if you have a business or venue and would like to form a professional relationship with my company, I would love to hear from you!
In any case, I look forward to reconnecting with those of you that I already know, and getting to make the acquaintance of those that I don’t. I’m sure I’ll see many of you at the next swear-in ceremony.
[She waves to the camera and smiles as the footage fades to black.]

[Hello network it's been awhile. Turns out holidays are stressful even when you're not actively participating, especially if you're still kind of sensitive about large crowds and loud noises.]
Ooookay, so. Learned recently that I'm not the biggest fan in the world of celebratory explosions.
[She may or may not have pulled a knife on some poor fucker. The police may or may not have been called. It was a Bad Time, Brent.]
Do those happen a lot, or is that just a once-a-year thing?
[Please tell her it's a once-a-year thing. She'd really rather not Actually Stab Someone based on a reflex, thanks.]
Ummm, also and mostly unrelated. I've got this old walkman from home, kinda sentimental value, you know? But the batteries are starting to run out, and I don't....know what kind they are. The store clerk asked if I wanted double or triple-A? And I have nooooo idea what either of those things mean. So if anyone could take a look, that'd really help me out.
Thanks. Uhh, happy new year, I guess?

Have any of you taken the GED? Or--you know, whatever they call the test you take instead of going to high school. [If there is one--she's maybe just assuming there is one. It's asked by a teenager sitting at her desk, behind a pile of library books, a thick notebook, and a bunch of pens and highlighters.] How long did you have to study before you took it? I wanna get it over with, but I don't wanna have to retake it...
And every time I look through my science flashcards, I feel like I'm gonna fall asleep. [She smiles, a little sheepish.] But one of my books has a bunch of experiments in it, so maybe those'll help. Some of them look kind of cool--you can make plastic out of milk. And there's like a million different kinds of slime...
...If any of you are studying, too, maybe we could work together. It's more fun if you aren't the only one, right?
Oh--and I started a BlueTube channel, if you want something to watch. It's just songs and stuff, but it looks pretty cool. [Since, you know, she uses her powers on it.] And if you have any requests, I can try to learn them. The house is pretty quiet right now.
I'll put a link up--hold on...
[And that's here. Since she's only just started to experiment with posting videos, her channel's pretty sparse so far.]

You know, if I had to do a birthday twice, I'm pretty sure most people would pick 29. But hey, not everything gets to be funny, right?

Considering peoples' arms are dropping off in the street and powers are going nuts and old battle wounds are blasting open in supermarkets and ruining all the clementines and shit, I think it might be good if everybody knew how to get in touch with their friendly local healer. Uh, I'm one of those, but I'm like, also just one demi-dude, so if any healers willing to help out would respond to this post with a text about how their powers work and what cities they're usually in, we can figure out maybe kind of a rotation? Just to help people not go full Ron of the Dead, until somebody figures out how to fix the nanites. I'll leave a place in the post to put your info.
And everybody else, like, consider this an imPort-911 post? All the healers can track it so we can have better response times. And you can get in touch with specific healers if like, there's a specific need.
Uh, Nurse Chase out.

hi.
i know this is an inopportune time, given all the memory stuff and the fire that just happened, but i have a question.
people who are in love, or have been in love in the past, or have a crush right now or are being crushed on or are otherwise deep in the throes of any of the other many shades of romance:
what's it like?
how did you first realize what those feelings were?
what's it like being around the person you're into? also also what's the person like in general?
and also what's it like being in a relationship and how did you first know you wanted to be in one and how long did you know the person you've got a thing for before you realized it was a thing?
also tell me other stuff about feelings, please.
please just use this as an avenue to scream about hearts and kisses and people or whatever.
thank you.
