It's the end of a long day at the firehouse. Most of Tommy's crew is leaving, and Tommy himself is heading out when he hears Lou call,

"Hey, Tom?"

He turns around and sees Lou coming toward him. "What's up?"

"Would you mind staying after class for a bit?"

Tommy eyes him warily. "Uh, why? I actually have a-- a thing to go to--"

"It won't take too long," Lou insists amiably enough, and he motions to follow him toward the kitchen. "Besides, we have all the time in the universe."

"We-- we do?"

"We sure do!" Lou swings open the kitchen door and shoves Tommy into Milliways, shutting the door behind them. "Care to explain this, asshole?"


[OOC: Two pups for the price of one! Tagging in will get you both. All threads will be Millitimed after Tommy and Lou's conversation, and Lou will subsequently be referred to as Kenny in narration. Freaking nicknames.]

It turns out - people were right. Korra can spend as much time in the "Bar" as she did on her first time, and those crazy White Lotus guys don't notice she's missing.

When you've spent your entire life trying to figure out how to shake constant surveillance by crazy White Lotus guys, the appearance of a magical "Bar" in your polar bear-dog's stall can quickly become elevated in your mind as the greatest thing evar.

Korra is on a mission with her second entrance: outside! So while she does stop in the doorway, cracking her knuckles with the satisfaction of making it here again, she wastes no time in getting to the back door and throwing it open.

And she stares in amazement.

Three seconds later, she's racing towards the lake, laughing in sheer joy and throws herself onto the water, surfing on the wave that rushes up to meet her feet.

"Wooo hoooo!"

Darcy (dressed in ratty jeans, sneakers, and a fluffy multi-colored sweater) is on her way to go buy some beer when she walks into the bar.

"... Hello. This is... surprisingly convenient."

Has she found the Room of Requirement? Has zombie Dumbledore FINALLY managed to get her into Hogwarts, per her thirteen-year-old request letter?

Darcy pokes at the doorway, thoughtfully, and eyes the patrons

[OOC: Closed to new threads, so I can focus on the ones I have! <3333. Unless we've pre-arranged something, obvs]

A long time ago on a different rock floating through space, four members of the Delphi Pythons -- the University at Delphi's pyramid team -- did a little P.R. work at a college fair. Had a table set up to talk pyramid and pyramid opportunities to prospective students. It was a pretty good day, as Sam recalls, and while no one who approached him or his teammates was a stranger to the concept of pyramid, they still got to do a lot of explaining, have a lot of laughs, and do more than a little showing off.

Today's even better, because this is gonna be their league run under their rules. And even better than that, the day's got two of the best forward guards left in the known universe talking up the game they both love. They've got a couple game balls with them (strictly for advertising purposes) and a hand-written poster by the table.

END-OF-THE-UNIVERSE PYRAMID LEAGUE
Bored with the usual? Looking for something to do to pass your time? Want to get in shape or if you're already there, stay in shape? Got a good arm? Good endurance? Love contact sports? Want to kick ass and have your own ass kicked in turn? Then you're our man or woman. Sign up now. Training and equipment provided.

"It's probably overkill," Sam admits to Kara, "but at least it's not a hard sell, right?"



[OOC: Got questions? Want to sign up for the league? Just want to chat? Ask Starbuck or Sam or both. The post is open forever, man. Forever.]

ETA: Thanks, you guys, and if you haven't done it yet feel free to drop in and sign up from now until the end of time.

He woke, and a man -- a mortal, and not even a warrior -- dared to attack the mighty Thor. Thor fought, and he would have defeated as many as they sent to hinder him, had they not used strange powers to send him to sleep against his will. When he woke again, he found that he was weak, weaker than he had ever been, stripped of his strength as his father had decreed and too weak to even break the straps the mortals had bound him with.

But at length he managed to slide one hand loose, and then to gain his freedom. Thor has never been one for stealth -- such trickery is his brother's skill, and Thor is content to leave it to him -- but he made short work of slipping his way free of this 'hospital', pausing only to trade his backless half-garment for a set of blue garments that at least include trousers before he stepped back into the desert sunsh--

This is not the desert. Nor outdoors.

Nor Asgard, nor any place he knows.



The man who enters is very large, very blond, and very, very confused.

(And wearing a set of blue scrubs with no shoes. They don't fit him very well.)

[OOC: Oh my god, I LOVE YOU ALL. *falling over* I will pick up slowtimes tomorrow! Closed to new threads, please, unless we've prearranged something. He'll be in again!]

It's flashback time.

[OOM(s): One coin. Two sides. In which Skaði and Loki meet for the first time. Just like a romantic comedy, but instead of 'romantic' there's violence and instead of 'comedy' there's... running around the forest in drag, I dunno. Protip: violence and lying are no way to build the foundations for a healthy relationship. Skaði you'll never catch a man that way]

Moist has been having a run of bad luck, he was just able to escape the fallout of his last job but hasn't been able to find any leads. Instead he's been scraping by with the smallest of his cons, the fake diamond one and stealing and selling horses to get someplace to make a new plan.

The Sto Plains are feeling rather emptier than he'd like at the moment and when he finds Milliways in his inn room, he allows himself a small sigh. His suit is his second best and looking rather more worn than the last time he was in here as he hasn't been able to afford a good cleaning for it.

At the counter, he orders a MacAbre and pulls out his map of the plains, if he can get just a little farther, there's Pseudopolis which is large enough that he can go to ground for a while.

There's a Jack in the bar.


He has a broad smile on his face, and a pint in front of him.

Why not ask what's got him so happy?

Helena is sat at the bar, watching where the door should be and waiting for it to reappear.
