[Percy at least knows what a cellphone looks like, so as soon as he's awake and has realized this is definitely not where I'm supposed to be, he's grabbing it and after making sure it's not some trap laid by Kronos or Luke or someone, instinctively dialing his mother's number.]

Mom? Are you there? [He waits, listening for any kind of response.] ( Read more... )

[Oh look. Claire is once again atop some rooftop or another, thoughtfully staring out at the night sky.]

It looks like we're all going to be stuck here for a while, doesn't it? I was hoping that someone from home would end up showing up, but I guess my luck is pretty much staying as awful as it was back home.

[And despite the melancholy, she ( Read more... )

[ Apparently Alex has hit the video button on accident, seeing as no one's told him how to lock his touch screen yet, and you're getting a lovely, if not nauseatingly blurred, view of the sidewalk as he wanders along one of the many in Abax. A couple moments pass of boring, blurred movement, and then a resounding ping, like metal coming into ( Read more... )

{Alright, Abax. Have a blue furry face adjusting his glasses in the video screen. They aren't his prescription precisely, but the store bought ones will work well enough for the reading he needs to do.Er, Hello. I'm Hank McCoy, also known as....Beast. I thought it'd be quicker to make an announcement rather than try and track down everyone who ( Read more... )

[It's really muffled at first, mostly because Sean's still trying to figure the damned thing out, and what button did what. It was still incredibly confusing to him, but he's getting the hang of it. For now, he's wandering around the city in some clothes that he found at a shop (which he is so happy for fff), taking a few moments to stare up at the ( Read more... )

[Claire is perched up atop a building, looking all kinds of thoughtful. Stacked on either side of her are piles of scrap wood, some of them horribly nailed together. She glances back at one of the terribly nailed heaps of wood and glares at it as she pushes it over.I guess I don't have much of a choice but to get used to this place. I was building ( Read more... )

[Someone’s cell phone, device feed, whatever turns on, upside down and turned outwards so its hard to tell who’s contacting the network. Instead, it shows a feed of the inside of the Abax Central Station and the sound of rapidly approaching trains can be heard ( Read more... )

Hello everyone, I'm Pepper Potts.

{She smiles slightly at the screen.I've noticed a lot of people worrying and asking if their friends are here. I've found a way to check. There's an address book in your phone. If you're unfamiliar with the technology I'm going to be at the clock tower for a while and I'm happy to help explain it to you ( Read more... )

[Raven... really has no idea what this thing is, just that it won't turn off and she's already managed to talk to a few people on it, so. It must have been a walky-talky, like she suspected. Only with a video feed, somehow, despite that being kind of unheard of, where she's from. She's sure Charles is finding it all very groovy, if he's here. Well ( Read more... )

[ Waking up in the equivalent of a meat locker was uncomfortable enough, mostly undressed with two women, was not exactly his regular sort of morning. It was cold as hell, and that much was clearly written on his face; just by the way he shivered on occasion. That wasn't to say Wesley couldn't handle a chill-- he was trained for all sorts of ( Read more... )
