Hi everyone,

If you don't already know me from the safehouse or the guide, I'm Fitz, one of the arrivals from the first transport. Prior to being here, I was a weapons and technology expert at SHIELD. Now, I’m a Pulsar engineer and, more importantly, an agent of Morningstar.

Recently, @ojiro.juniper approached me with the clever idea to kickstart some research and development efforts. We’re working on a way to bankroll this, and we’ll let you know how that develops in due course. For now, regardless of where discussions have evolved on the nature of organisation and leadership, we need your assistance with some big endeavors, both for the Displaced and Morningstar.

1. As some of you may know from the raids, Morningstar has a cache of unidentified weapons in its local store. We don’t know what they do, how they work, how dangerous they are, and so on, but I want to find out. So, let's discuss a plan: Any thoughts or ideas for how to approach the cache and suss everything out safely would be welcome.

Reckon we’ll need at least one colour-coded spreadsheet. [ ***NOT JOKING ]

2. We could use a team of engineers for ad hoc projects. Presently, I’m exploring tech that could counter both the UNA and the creatures that keep popping up, as well as give us more freedom to act whenever trouble comes our way — all by my lonesome.

If this sounds like something you’re interested in, whether or not you have the technical know-how to get to work immediately, or you want to learn on the job, let me know. Can’t pay you in anything except snacks, but I can assure you they’ll be bug free.

3. Hi, this is Ojiro. In addition to the above, I also need an engineer for personal reasons, and I will pay you. I need someone with a lot of experience with tech as advanced as the standard here, preferably lots of hands-on engine work. Message me if you're interested!

Cheers.

[ Check out here for more deets on the cache and here for some OOC knowledge of what Fitz is working on personally. He’ll share details of the latter strand of work with any individuals wanting to form a geek squad c: For #3, interested applicants can just private message Ojiro on this post! I'll be throwing together a plot engagement incorporating what characters ICly suggest in the coming weeks! ]

sounds like a lot of work just to get to the fun part

[ poe in an au scenario, probably: welcome to my mysterious weapon cache unboxing vid, i'm just gonna take this and OH SHIT WHAT THE HELL EVERYTHING IS ON FIRE ]

but yeah, always. sign me up. you gonna be there firing or taking notes?

[retravel]

I'll probably be a failsafe actually, covering the operator of the firearm in any testing trio.
We're short on defensive and evasive powers, as a group, and I can open and close portals. Jump between points. That sort of thing.

[ inside poe is something like "mm i'd love to have you cover me kind sir." but the winky emoji said enough, probably. ]

really? huh. didn't know you could do that. how far can you go?

PRIVATE.

[retravel]

[ ;) ]

Far as I can see.

[ which he's said as much before now, but then he switches to PRIVATE to add. ]

Maybe farther.
Went through a wall the other day. That was new.

[ went through here meaning fell... whatever!! ]

[followhim]

really? wow, that's gotta come in useful

i know what my ability is but i don't really know how to use it

[ because learning things takes time and effort and he's wildly impatient: can you imagine? ]

[retravel]

Yeah. I’ll admit I’ve been surprised by the applications.

[ dark laugh track ]

What are you working with? Maybe I can help.
Was part of my job to build stuff to help train powers back home, so I know a thing or two.

[followhim]

i can

i can move things? kind of. i can control how fast things move. You know, make them go fast or slow. or stop.

[retravel]

Now that’s versatile.
Defence. Offence. You could help pretty much anywhere.

[followhim]

you know the one time we had the dreams that were all connected? i did a lot of it then

not so much in real life
