"this ship is taking me far away from the memory of the people who care if i live or die;"

[alloys]

Who: Tony, Jane, Loki, and select invitees.
What: Fun with portals
When: Friday, March 15
Where: House 49
Summary: After months of painstaking work, Tony and Jane are finally ready to test their machine. Things don't exactly go according to plan.
Rating: PG-13 probably???


So here's how things are going to go down: This log will be split into three sub-threads. There will be preshow thread for everyone to tag into before things start to go down. Then, there will be a main thread for Tony, Jane, Loki and Billy for the actual portal testing and immediate results. Finally, there will be a postgame thread for anyone to tag into with their reactions.

A bit about the set-up in Tony’s workshop for you spatially-minded people: the portal itself will be near-center in the room, with all the other tables and equipment (including his armor) moved back against the walls. This will leave plenty of spectator space and clearance room for potential backfiring. But that surely won’t be a problem, because this is going to work, right? Of course right. Ahaha.

That’s it! Refer to this OOC post if you have questions or if you're wondering if your character would be there or not. We’ll be happy to clarify. Enjoy the fallout!

"Thank you. I do try."

[snikting]

"You know what we got waiting for us, right? If this works?"

Apocalypse. Worse than that for her. She didn't even know.

[calmbeforethe]

Well, that sobered her up right quick. "Of course." Or she thought she did, at least. "Truth be told, our return is long overdue. Even if we don't know what's in store for us, that does not change the fact that we are needed, back on Earth."

[snikting]

"If it works..." He stared at the portal as he thought back to those images from the video feed. "If it works, we got some things to sort out before we go crossing through it."

[calmbeforethe]

"Do we?" She wasn't sure what he was referring to. They'd spoken not a few days ago about what happened last Valentine's - perhaps it was something else?

[snikting]

"Just some business concerning home." Ideally, they'd not have to talk about it at all.

[calmbeforethe]

But now that he'd brought it up, Ororo was concerned. Logan wasn't one to bring up home very randomly. She took a look around; they weren't alone, but most people were busy with something or the other. Not the most private or ideal place to have a conversation about home, but it would do.

She let her voice drop to a quiet murmur. "Is something the matter?"

[snikting]

"We can take later. The show's bound to start soon."

[calmbeforethe]

"... You aren't one to bring something up and then not follow through on it." She gave him a curious look. "But you're right. I will hold you to that promise, then."

[snikting]

He grumbled a silent agreement. He didn't much want to tell her at all, especially if this thing didn't work. But it was a bit too late now. He wouldn't be getting off the hook for it.

So he didn't say anything and instead focused his attention on the machine just as things were starting up.
