Hi everyone,

It's time again for the irregularly scheduled update on the shadowy conspiracies surrounding our spacetime displacement.

If you don't already know me, I'm Leo Fitz, one of the arrivals from the first transport. Prior to being here, I was an engineering and technology operative at SHIELD, an American extra-governmental military counter-terrorism and intelligence agency. Myself and several others have been investigating the circumstances of the fire and the nurse's death, with the generous aid of Gaby, El, and Morningstar's contacts.

Debris samples from the apartment site collected by Kylo (@kylo.ren) and I contained the expected signs of fire damage as well as a significant oddity: Residue left by an organic material. While the residue was too insubstantial and damaged for a full chemical analysis, it showed matching markers to the samples of the smaller creatures of unknown origin (designated 084s), previously tested by Kylo through Morningstar.

At great personal risk, Katelin (@katelin.philips) and Marcos (@marcos.diaz) also questioned the morgue attendants. In doing so, we learned the following information:

1. Our nurse suffered blunt force head trauma, noted as his cause of death prior to the fire reaching his body. Such an injury occurs most often by accident, as in the case of a car crash, or when an object is used to bludgeon the skull, as in the event of a homicide.

2. I'm inclined to classify this cause of death as suspicious, and it seems the local authorities agree, with a group of individuals in possession of NAFD Forensics identification having carted off the corpse before we arrived. Additionally, records of the nurse's collection and autopsy have been scrubbed, much to our morgue attendants' surprise and alarm.

Further investigation shows that all of the nurse's data has been wiped, as if he never existed in the first place.

Maybe this only confirms our suspicions of foul play and establishes a concrete link between the fire and the creatures. To me, it guarantees that we are dealing with an organization capable of using, coercing, and erasing individuals, even those who have proven useful to them in the past. Everything we do in pursuit of answers is a risk, so please be careful as we work together to solve this.

— Fitz

I don't think he likes Leonard.

[ this isn't what this is about, Loki. ]

[evite]

[ that's exactly what this is about, loki!!! ]

you're not wrong
he's really more of a "breathily whispered last name" kind of guy tbh

[selfimage]

It's not bad for a breathily whispered kind of situation.

[ IS IT ]

Imagine:
Snowy mountains outside, a log cabin. Inside, a candlelit room. In the center, over the table holding a chilled bottle of Chablis, a man with a beard sprawls over a bear skin rug. A fire crackles in the background.
Ah! It forms words!
There's a whisper, like a dream .......

...... "Fitz" .......

At least I have your kudos, Connor.

[cyberlife]

Of course. Your particular brand of humour is entertaining.

A Chardonnay? Really?

[retravel]

At least pick a Sauvignon Blanc — or a red, Jesus Christ.

[ he's a ROMANTIC ]

Right, okay, abuse of grammar and the ellipses, in particular, aside.
You've had your wank. Good for you.

[ PISS OFF ]

[His inner nerd is screaming to be released at a missed literary opportunity.]

You're lucky that they're not making the most obvious Pride and Prejudice joke, Mr. Fitzwilliam Fitz.

[That's all he has to say. It was bothering him. Please continue.]

[retravel]

[ traitors everywhere... this is worse than HYDRA... ]

Oh, so when you said I dressed old-fashioned, you meant I fit into your Regency fantasy. My mistake.

[ what if he deletes this entire post and lets everyone figure this out on their lonesome!! ]

[saviorexe]

[He was willing to leave it at that! Gosh.]

Would you really say no to a high-collared waistcoat, a great coat, and maybe a cravat for good measure? You’d turn heads.

[selfimage]

I'll conduct a full scale interview before I let my whims get the best of me next time.
Have you truly taken it as a slight?

[ you all are so soft. ]

[retravel]

[ a pause. ]

Well, now I know you only like me for the beard, so yes, I've taken it as a slight.
And now you have to make it up to me.

[evite]

i'd watch that movie
but i probably should have warned you that he's a bit of a wine snob

[ and by "a bit" ... well. ]

[selfimage]

So much that he took offense.
I thought it was good.

[evite]

i've read worse iron man stories
that was pretty good. nicely romantic without being overly floral.

[ high praise from agent johnson, who definitely read her fair share of fanfic in the day. ]

he's just being stroppy

[ does she really know what that means???? no.... but she's heard it said... ]

[retravel]

[ SCREAMS SOFTLY ]

It's short for Leopold, but it doesn't matter, because I prefer Fitz, anyway.

[ information for the public, not loki specifically... ]

[selfimage]

I know you do.

[ but he does it anyway because he wants to be special. ]

[retravel]

Oh, yes, the trickster god deigns to call the mortal Fitz what he likes.
Dead charming.

[selfimage]

The trickster god does what he likes- in all fondness, of course.
But I have to say "the mortal Fitz" has a ring to it.

[retravel]

[ oh, even the mere suggestion of fondness has him softening up. too easy... ]

Course it does. I said it.
"Our weary romantic lead, the mortal Fitz."

[ pls let him rest ]
