Megan Pendragon

Location: Atlantica
Skills: N/A

Sierra asked Megan if she was nervous, and Megan shook her head. "Excited, really. Swinging a sword at someone in practice is one thing - this is something different," she answered. It was true. Rather than feeling frightened, instead Megan's adrenaline was beginning to spike ever so slowly. She could feel her heart quicken, her blood pumping a little faster, and her fingers itched to hold excalibur. Megan moved with Arthur and Sierra, hiding with them in the bushes near the docks. She noticed along with them that there was a patrol going along the docks, but that they seemed to be departing - and she could hear the sound of the drunken pirates.

Arthur crept forward, using the darkness to cover him. Megan had no real difficulty in doing exactly the same, making her way quickly and quietly onto the docks. The docks were really horrible - just completely terrible. Megan wouldn't have been surprised if just bouncing up and down would be enough to ruin them. Did they even really need to try and do so? Maybe the pirates would destroy it all by themselves soon enough... At any rate, she was ready to put the plan into action.




@Blizz: Go ahead and post the collab we did :)

@BlueSky44@Natsu: As Zelda left Agatha's little tent, Leah went in without saying a word to her. Perhaps Agatha ought to have given a protection charm to Mary Sue as well, as the sweet young freshmen's attempt to make her first real friend went... poorly. Specifically, Zelda's special note from the first update is coming into play. Zelda manifested the first fear listed on poor Mary Sue's CS completely by accident - Failure.

Given that failure is somewhat of an abstract concept, images of Mary Sue's mother and father - Niah Bautista and Oliver Sullivan, ex Agents of SHIELD - appeared. Both images looked at her with disapproval, while her father shook his head. "You've always been a disappointment to us..." he said. Her mother then chimed in. "Honey, it's not her fault - she can't help being a failure. Maybe the next kid will turn out better..."

The images would then disappear. Well, this is awkward, huh?

@BlueSky44@Kirah@Forsythe@Nallore: It's too bad that no one turned out to be worthy of the hammer, but poor Mr. Eyeball didn't even get to make an attempt, which, honestly, rude! People are still giving Andy somewhat weird looks for her retro fashion sense, a few giggles directed her way. If Zari has noticed Victoria's secret, she hasn't said anything yet, which hopefully is putting our robot friend at ease. And if you all do want to go hit each other with foam swords, the Academy Knights' booth isn't too far away! They might also notice the gigantic FIREBALL someone over by the food trucks blasted up into the sky, but that's just a normal day at AA, right? None of the teachers seem to be doing anything about it.

Andy's phone will ring with a text though, from her mom - BORED! xoxo Mummy

@Trainerblue192: Dorian must not have been paying 100% attention as to where he was going, as he collided into an older gentleman with a monocle. It was like the man had suddenly appeared out of thin air. He had a briefcase in his hand, and a small package in the other. He peered at Dorian, as if he could see him - and then Dorian would realize that he definitely could. An ordinary person shouldn't be able to do that. Hell, even some extraordinary people weren't able to see him. And Dorian definitely should not have bounced off of the gentleman, but he had.

"Mr. Gray," the old man said - he had a prim, sort of faux-British accent, the sort characters in Star Wars or fantasy movies had. He set down his briefcase and reached into his pocket, producing a silk handkerchief. "Today is not a day for tears. If my memory is accurate, and it always is, today is your birthday, no? Come with me to my office, I shall make us some tea and you can tell me what happened."

He then chuckled slightly, realizing he hadn't introduced himself - and Dorian would have a sense of déjà vu - as if he had seen this man before, but he wouldn't be able to place where. "How silly of me - I forgot to make introductions. My name is Ser Nemo. I'm a new instructor and coach here at the academy."

Percy Novikov

Location: the Field (School Carnival) -> Stark Hall
Skills: N/A
~First Day Fit~

Percy didn't even know what to think when he saw snacks dropping out of nowhere in a trail in front of him. He was half tempted to scream LEAVE ME ALONE in every language he could think of. Sure, he had been bullied before at his old schools, but it was nothing compared to this. He wanted to punch a wall until his knuckles bled, and drink bourbon in his room to feel the burn crawl down his throat and into his stomach. He wanted to be alone, allowed to put together another suitable outfit, and read - maybe use his phone to watch some TV, if he got bored with Homer.

But the universe didn't seem to have that in mind for him.

He had just gone past an older gentleman in a suit when a massive wave of nausea and dizziness hit him - he saw stars as Percy stumbled forward, hitting the ground and landing on his knees. His ears were ringing. As much as he was freaked by the sudden onset of these symptoms, Percy couldn't help but become more infuriated. Everyone at this school was going to think he was some sort of sickly, frail kid who had to hide behind his sister.

Percy gritted his teeth, staggering up to his feet as he continued to walk towards Stark Hall. And then suddenly, the symptoms were gone. He felt perfectly fine. His skin felt like it was crawling with goosebumps and the hair on the back of his neck must've been standing straight up. When he made it to the entrance of Stark Hall - the building overlooked the field where the carnival was being held - Percy turned around. He saw Diana heading after him.

He huffed slightly. "I'm fine, Diana," he insisted. "Go back to your friends and have fun. I just want to be alone."

April Flynn

Location: the Field (School Carnival)
Skills: Hydrokinesis
~First Day Fit~

April was really torn - her immediate instinct was to run off after Dorian, maybe even give him his birthday present from her early (she had been saving it until after dinner - tickets for a K-Pop concert in LA happening in December). But as much as she felt compelled to go try and fix everything instantly, she knew that wasn't what Dorian would want - he'd want some time to be alone for a bit, to calm down, and then they could check in on him. She'd been besties with him long enough to know what he needed. "Dory..." April bit her lip, and wrung her hands slightly with nervousness.

Danny had latched onto Sabine, throwing himself - quite literally - into her arms. April's eyes widened in surprise as Danny set off a gigantic fireball (which was totally cool!! but also totally scary af). April nodded slightly as Diana said she was going to go after her brother, waving bye somewhat awkwardly at her. But as Leah took her arm away from her, April's internal sense of stability was majorly shaken. Her anxiety felt like it was a bunch of ants, crawling up her skin - that or knives, piercing her stomach. Without even realizing it, April started to rapidly cool the water vapor in the air around them.

A high pitched screech of Dani heralded the arrival of Chi Mai (complete with an EPIC tiger face paint, April would have to go by and get her face done too) - and gods, April could really go for a little weed break right now. She felt so incredibly frazzled, and not the cute hottie she had wanted to be today. Thankfully, Sabine seemed to be taking control of the situation - her methodical and thorough words, analyzing the entire situation and putting it in rational terms, it couldn't help but make April feel a little steadier.

But then, Sabine - perfect Sabine with the sun-kissed skin and perfect blonde hair and piercing blue eyes - Sabine called April GORGEOUS.

April couldn't breathe. She was pretty sure her heart had stopped beating. Every fiber of her being felt like it was on fire. She wanted to cry - not out of sadness, but out of pure elated joy. Her crush on Sabine was a relatively recent affair - she hadn't even told Danny or Dorian about it yet, partially because she knew that Danny wouldn't be able to keep it a secret from her bestie. She felt light on her feet and off balance, ready to fall backwards and just keep on falling for eternity, hearing those words replaying in her head over and over again until she died.

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous...

The water vapor in the air became sufficiently cool. What had been a gas became a liquid. A light watery mist hit everyone in the group - not too heavy, and it wasn't painful by any means, but a mist nonetheless.

April turned bright red.

"Umm... I'm gonna get us the food, sorry kid, we were - we were waiting and...." April didn't know how to finish that sentence, instead stepping up to the food truck - as it was finally their turn - and getting an assortment of items, enough food for the five of them. She didn't know if she'd be able to eat really, though. She didn't know if she'd be able to ever eat again, she was pretty certain there were piranhas and butterflies in mortal combat inside of her stomach.

"Okay, I got food for everyone, just take whatever you like, and um, yeah we can do whatever you want Danny! Or like whatever everyone wants, I'm not picky, I don't want to do anything actually - I mean not that I want to do nothing, just that I have no preference for anything, well there are things that I do think sound fun but like not more fun than anything else that anyone else might want to do!"


Guin Stark

Location: Woods
Skills: Telepathy

Lance didn't seem to even hear her suggestion of beating up Loki - if that was Loki, anyways. But as much as Guin was concerned about Lance, she was also concerned about their next move. She couldn't help but be fearful of and for Mary right now. Hosting the Phoenix was an awesome cosmic responsibility... and one that Guin didn't think her friend was prepared for - that any of them would have really been prepared for at the end of the day. No one seemed to make any decisions about maybe-or-maybe-not Loki, instead refocusing the conversation on how they were going to get home, with not Klara in tow.

Yeah, this is... all very strange, no pun intended, Guin agreed with Pietro. "Runa, do you wanna give the doc a ring then, tell him we're ready for him?" Guin suggested, agreeing with Annie and Bethany that they ought to just get Doctor Strange here, and he could use the shard of the M'Kraan crystal to send them all home. Maybe he'd have some advice on how to get the Phoenix safely out of someone as well, just to prevent any Dark Phoenix II situations from happening. Guin really did not want to see the remake.

Runa Baldurdattir

Location: Woods
Skills: N/A

"Yes, Klara, these are our allies," Runa reassured her cousin. Perhaps when they returned home, one of the Asgardian healers could restore the rest of Klara's memories. But if not, it was such a short period of time anyways to an Asgardian. Had one of the Midgardians been missing decades if not centuries of memories, Runa would be a little more concern, as that was more or less the extent of their lifespan.

"I s'pose we can take them back to Asgard and kill them there," Runa relented. They did need to leave, before more damage could be done to people's minds. She was still somewhat in denial over what had happened to Lance. Maybe he'd never want to see her again. Maybe he would never remember his life, just remembering this dark shadow of Earth-667... She bit her lip, steadying herself emotionally.

The subject had changed anyways to how they were going to get home, most of them pushing for Doctor Strange. But Runa hesitated, not calling for Strange. She could feel the presence of the Phoenix was here - perhaps just from the M'Kraan crystal in Mary's hand, but maybe something more. "Grandmother... If you are there... Will you send us home?" Runa asked softly, looking at Mary and the crystal. She wasn't sure where the Phoenix was, but she was here, somewhere, and that was all they should need to use the M'Kraan crystal, something so intimately connected to the Phoenix itself.



☀️ Nancy Parker ☀️

Location: Train
Skills: Daggers

Nancy made quick work of the Minotaur, stabbing it with her twin Celestial Bronze daggers. The Minotaur collapsed into a pile of dust, leaving its horns behind. Ordinarily, the trophy went to the person who had delivered the killing blow - but Nancy didn't feel right claiming them. Instead, she picked up the two horns. "Janelle, I'm giving you one of the trophies - one of the horns," she said, before placing a horn gently in Janelle's hand. "Try not to stab me with it." Janelle had been the one to really fell the Minotaur - but she couldn't have done it without Demetri's distraction. Nancy then held up the other horn to Demetri.

"Also going to ask that you don't stab me with this," she requested. She had more faith in Janelle when it came to not accidentally killing her anyways. If either of them didn't want it, Nancy figured she'd give it to Joanie - Joanie could use a good chew toy anyways. As much as Nancy found it cute when Joanie nibbled on her hair, it probably wasn't good for her hair in the long run. Nancy peered up and down the train corridor, and nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary anymore. It was all back to normal. Well, except for the panicking mortals.

Nancy pursed her lips. It would probably be in their best interest to get off of this train and out of sight. But they had already spent so much (of Janelle's) money to get these tickets. "Cacas," Nancy cursed. She had been hoping the Mist would encourage all of them to start vibing and just ignoring what had happened. "Unless you all are really into the idea of talking with the police, we're going to need to make ourselves scarce, pronto." She wished Mads had been there - she could've used the Mist to calm all the mortals down.

🌈 Leda Storm 🌈

Location: Under the Sea
Skills: N/A

Leda raised an eyebrow, at Kiera's proposal that she'd just have to carry her around in order to test her speed. "Believe it or not, but carrying you does slow me down - so we would just have a lower limit to my speed, not a max," Leda argued. She was happy though to have Kiera's arm around her. She liked the physical show of affection, even something as simple as this. Hercules then prompted them to go and Leda followed along with the rest, going up into the palace, past the merpeople acting as guards, and eventually into what must've been Poseidon's war room.

"Bloody hell... Your dad is fit," Leda couldn't help but blurt, slightly mesmerized by Poseidon's abs. She couldn't help herself, though. Gods and goddesses tended to make themselves incredibly hot - and Leda, being bisexual, couldn't help but appreciate all of them. Though, she did feel a little bad about blurting that out in front of Kiera. "Not as hot as you, 'course, babes," she added in a whisper. She would've said it louder, but she was mildly afraid Poseidon would turn her into a piece of coral or something.
Heyo, could this post be removed? Thanks!!

Megan Pendragon

Location: Atlantica
Skills: N/A

Her brother didn't answer her question about whether or not he was frightened - either he was annoyed at her for asking or he really was just that petrified. She wasn't going to push him however. If he really was terrified of what was to come, that wasn't going to be any help. Instead, Megan watched quietly as the fires were extinguished and people got ready for action, as darkness had come upon them. Megan hadn't put on her armor yet, as it would magically pop on when she needed it, and for the moment would be rather loud.

Megan nodded, confirming that she was ready when asked. She had her hand resting on the hilt of excalibur. Her assigned group was with her father and Sierra, so she moved over there to stand by them. "Let's do this, then." She was prepared for this.



@Martian: When Rory approached the booth, they'd be greeted by the current president of the Academy Knights - or as they were officially called per the club's charter, the king. "Ah, a brave knight for the tourney!" the King greeted jovially, a cheap Party City crown atop their head. The king turned, looking at the knights sitting on the bench. Most of them were out of breath and somewhat bruised, despite the foam swords - all except for a dark haired girl with braids. Her armor looked more authentic than the rest, with the crest of a gold dragon on the front.

"I'll face them," the girl said, grabbing her foam sword from where it was resting against the bench. Her accent was British, but not quite - it was difficult to place and almost sounded fake.

The king looked at Rory with pity for a moment, but soon replaced their worried expression with a smile. "Very well then. What be your name, brave Ser Knight? You'll be facing, er..." they paused, sighing slightly, "Ser Megan."

Megan's dark eyes darted over towards Rory for a second, though her thoughts and intentions were still somewhat obscured.

@Natsu: Zelda had already gone off on her way with her new She-Hulk teddy bear. If Mary Sue wanted to, she could chase after her and perhaps make a friend. But if not, the attendant at the booth is more than happy to give Mary Sue the quiz, asking her questions one after another:


@BlueSky44: Zelda had won her new beloved and prized possession, a She-Hulk teddy bear (feel free to add this to your inventory!). As she wandered around looking for something else to do, she'd notice that the fortune telling booth line was pretty short. There was just a few people in it at the moment. If she wanted to get her fortune told, maybe now would be an ideal time to do so. Or at the very least, she could get out of the sun and into the shade - it was boiling outside.

@BlueSky44@Kirah@Forsythe@Nallore: The four of you - Zari, Andy, Vicky, and Mads - were all within the general vicinity of Thor's hammer. Mads would not recognize Zari or Andy, but she'd likely have seen Vicky around before. Maybe it's time to go make some new friends? Or at the very least, Mads could take a try at the hammer. Most people seem to have gotten tired of being told they were bad people by the hammer, so there wasn't much of a line anymore, so any of the four could go up and try their hand at it (although maybe not Vicky, as the answer is unlikely to change).

@Ever Faithful: Poor Ardere, she had been thinking about saying hello to the girl, only for the girl to leave. When Ardere made it to the line for food, she'd spot a man built like a bear not too far ahead of her in line, talking to a boy with green skin and another one with a mischievous smile. Farther up the line, she'd notice a large group that seemed to have clustered together - though that group was almost at the very front now. If she wanted to get food sooner rather than later, maybe now would be a good time to try and get some friends. Or she could wait.

@Ogobrogo: Billy's eye twitched slightly as Teddy told Hulkling that he was incredible. "I tell him that all the time and he never listens to me, isn't that right, babe?" Billy complained, before putting a kiss on Hulkling's cheek - as if to say back off, other Teddy to Teddy. Hulkling didn't seem to notice his boyfriend's jealousy and/or discomfort though. Instead, Hulkling seemed more shocked to hear that Teddy had only been able to lift three cars.

"Is everything okay, Teddy?" he asked, genuine concern in his eyes. "If you need a work-out buddy, I'm always here. But... there's no reason you shouldn't be able to lift thirty easy," he argued. Hulkling had smiled slightly though, when Teddy had said he was going to go and drop thirty, just to keep Hulkling on his toes. "And besides, how will we be good rivals if we aren't both at the top of our game?"

"Okay, is it bad I kinda like the idea of you going and lifting more cars?" Billy admitted, addressing both of them, but clearly more Hulkling than Teddy. But who could blame him - if Hulkling were your boyfriend, wouldn't you want to watch him lift impossible weights?

@Ogobrogo: The face paint artist blinked, not really too sure what to say. "I... Danny who?" they asked. They were worried for a moment that they had missed something, but they were pretty sure they hadn't, tilting their head at Chi Mai quizzically. "Have you had too much sun or something?" they then asked. "I can get you some water..." But even though they were concerned, they were still a ~professional~ and they painted Chi Mai's face, transforming her into a tiger.

Percy Novikov

Location: the Field (School Carnival)
Skills: N/A
~First Day Fit~

Percy was shocked that things could, indeed, get worse. Out of nowhere, the boy with the beautiful eyes vanished from sight - and then suddenly, he felt so very very very wrong. His entire body had the sort of pins and needles feeling you have when trying to wake up a limb that's fallen asleep. His chest felt like there was a gigantic weight pressing down on it, as if trying to crush his lungs. He couldn't move his eyes, he couldn't scream, he was powerless, helpless, trapped -

He flickered in and out of space-time, a perfect execution of his powers, but it was terrifyingly out of his control. His mothers had warned him about the dangers of his powers, in his hands he trusted himself, but in... It clicked into place. The boy with the beautiful eyes was possessing him.

And then, it was over. The spell had lifted. Percy should've felt relieved and free. But instead, Percy couldn't help but feel completely violated. He didn't know whether to scream, swear, cry, or some combination of all three. But as much as he would swear on his life that he didn't care about the opinions of these people, he wasn't going to let them see him sweat. The only person present who had ever seen him cry was Diana and Percy wasn't even too happy about that.

So instead of genuine emotion, Percy laughed. "Are you mad? Why would I give you my jacket for this "Max" to deal with? You set me on fire, spray that nasty shit into my mouth, and then hop into my body and you all assume that I'm just going to sit around and take it? That I'll just shrug, say it was an accident, hand off my jacket, and wait for you to turn it to ash like an idiot?" Percy shook his head defiantly.

He clearly wasn't taking Diana's advice to calm down. His eye twitched ever so slightly as Leah introduced herself to him, make a lighthearted joke, but also advised him to tell Diana to get a personality. Diana was his annoying older sister, but she was his annoying older sister. "Maybe you should consider upgrading your personality as well," he snapped at Leah. His stomach was growling quietly and he was hungry, food was so close, but Percy was beyond 1000% done with all of this.

"надеюсь вы все горите в аду," he said, giving the group the middle finger before marching off in the direction of Stark Hall. Hopefully his roommate wouldn't be back, so he could get some peace and quiet.

April Flynn

Location: the Field (School Carnival)
Skills: N/A
~First Day Fit~

April had been fantasizing about the start to her junior year for months - before sophomore year had even ended. In no version of events though, had things gone so disastrously wrong. She hadn't even done anything and April couldn't help but have her eyes blur slightly with tears, and laugh somewhat nervously. "Umm, that was an accident - he can't say it, because he's still ghost, but that definitely was an accident, okay?" April blurted, trying to apologize on Dorian's behalf as her heart felt like it was about to explode from pounding in her chest.

She was tempted to stress eat some of the treats that the ghostly form of Dorian walked on over with - she was used to him going around as a ghost, so not being able to see him didn't freak her out. But there were so many people crowding around them, and Danny was spiraling, which made it all so easy for April to begin to spiral as well. Her ears felt like they were ringing when Leah slung a muscular arm around April's shoulder and teased her playfully. "What? Me? Evil? N-n-never!" April stammered. "I don't even have that many villains in my family tree! Well my dad used to be one, but that doesn't count - and my grandpa's getting a real reappraisal these days, he doesn't even make the Top 10 list anymore of SHIELD's most wanted, so there's that. Then there's my various aunts and uncles... Most of them former villains, but again, they're good! So if anything, if I went evil, it wouldn't stick because I'm just meant to be a good person! And if I wanted to kill a freshie, I'd freeze his blood, I wouldn't burn him, it's bad for the environment, toxic fumes and stuff!"

She swallowed slightly, conscious that she was rambling. Diana at least seemed to be in the mood to deescalate the situation. "Oh, she's, um... She's around, I think. She might be in a costume, I don't know. She's... somewhere?" April said with a slight shrug. She flushed pink when Sabine approached, asking Danny if she was okay. Despite being besties with one of April's besties, she was pretty sure Sabine had zero clue who April was.

Then the Percy-sized bomb dropped. April's jaw dropped. Yes, he had been assaulted - on accident - by her friends but... April really didn't know what to say or think. She didn't know what they were supposed to do here either. None of the teachers seemed to care what was going on, and they were almost at the front of the line for food. "Oh my god that could not have possibly gone worse..." she mumbled, the color rapidly draining from her face.


Raynor Blake, Jedi Knight

25 pts (Light-Side)


"The Delta 7 and the 170 starfighters I believe are our primary interest at this time - larger support ships as well, perhaps some suited for medical craft, and other warships. Essentially, our standard order with the addition of the Delta 7," Raynor specified. "In terms of quantity... It's my understanding that you're under an exclusive contract with the Grand Army of the Republic. We'd like to purchase every ship that you have."

Raynor then paused, hoping to let that information sink in, to see if there would be any sort of a tell from Jarothe. "How many ships do you have right now, Jarothe?" Raynor asked, before smiling a friendly smile. "I'd like to be able to give the Council a count, so that way the appropriate funds could be transferred the next business day." And by getting Jarothe's count, that would be a key piece of information for the investigation - one to incriminate the man.
The Stables...

Lorna had never heard of a kistune before - most of what she knew about Japan had really just been things Kitty had taught her, or things she had assumed from watching Studio Ghibli movies with her mom when she was little. "Is it.. a type of magic cat?" Lorna guessed, since kit sounded like kitten to her and she didn't have anything else to go off of. She blushed in embarrassment, second guessing whether or not that had been an okay thing to say. She didn't really know a lot about other cultures. She was still mostly learning lots about her own cultures - she'd learn about her mother's culture when hanging out with Nadja and her family, and her father's culture here at Camp Half-blood. Lorna still wasn't sure how the two could mix and combine.

"But either way, that's wicked cool! What sort of stuff can he do? It sounds like magic stuff? Is he immortal? Where's his power come from? Is it something you're born as or something you become - or kinda both?" Lorna asked, incredibly curious. Her mind could hardly decide what to fixate on - the bombshell Kitty had dropped or how incredibly COOL it was to be on the back of a pegasus, her heart pounding as Kitty helped her onto the back of the horse.


Raynor Blake, Jedi Knight

21 pts (Light-Side)


Raynor lunged forward somewhat recklessly with his blade, hoping to cleanly slice through the droid and end this conflict. His body felt like every nerve ending was on fire, screaming at him to take a beat, to catch his breath, to rest. But there wasn't time. And his body wasn't his own. He was a Jedi, he served the Republic, and he would die serving the Republic if that was what it took. His wild swing was a wild miss, and it left him open and vulnerable, as the droid shot him in the side.

Raynor clutched his side, wheezing. The droid fired off another shot and it missed him, going wide. It might've been stupid, and it was a technique that Raynor had not even tried to study properly, but he threw his blade at the droid. The Force must've been with him in that moment though, as the blade skewered the droid and it crumpled to the ground, useless. Raynor staggered to the side, leaning against the hallway, the hand clutching the blaster wound damp with blood.

"You - lead," he choked out, holding out a shaking hand to recall his lightsaber to him. "We ride or die for the Republic."
