@everyone You don't have to use this to discuss anything but we should all provide status updates when possible

@hawkeye

[purpura]

@ everyone

okay SO

what are your groups talking about? the strange (that's their username) dude says the clubs are already infighting, or that at least someone is thinking about using this to win.

we're gonna have to figure this out before it gets out of control.

also? none of you are allowed to die. figure it out!

[vdovy]

The strange dude is Doctor Strange

@bob

[sensive]

diamonds chat is crazy
i think we’ll zero in on who attacked jake and ani since she’s on our team
and she’s a hero for saving him
(jake’s from the universe with the other bob who wears glasses btw)

anyway that maybe isn’t a good look for us
because of the waterboarding

[ half of you are ex professional torturers ]

so we really should solve that one
and find another doctor to protect ani

@barnes.

[restored]

[Yes, there are bigger priorities right now, but-]

barton?

@sriracha

[vdovy]

@everyone Actually we do have to discuss this
I think those of us with physical training need to protect those of us that don't have powers here
I've got Bob, that leaves Stephen, Tony, and Wanda

@wanda Hi btw I'm Yelena, Natasha's sister 👋

@strange

[rehandle]

[ On the one hand, he should probably be touched by her concern. On the other - ]

Sorry, did you just accuse me of not having physical training?

@wanda

[wundagores]

Hi, Yelena 😊 It's nice to meet you.

[she's really trying with that emoji here. really trying.]

I know some of the basics. Learning more would help.

@bob

[sensive]

good plan yelena
thanks

@barnes.

[restored]

think you mean we've got bob

@Stark

[ingeniar]

Hey, "leaves" nothing. I know how to handle myself. Ask your sister.

@bob

[sensive]

hey so
for the people here who aren’t doing martyr stuff
and really want less murder to happen this weekend
how are we voting?

[vdovy]

None of our lovely martyrs, obviously
If you guys wanted us to tie you up so bad you could have just asked @stark @wanda

@bob Do you like anyone on diamonds for it?
There are rumors of diamond collars fleeing two scenes

@wanda

[wundagores]

[look at her ignore that ping for that direct callout! anyway, more serious things are happening.]

@ everyone

We think someone on Diamonds has been poisoned. Ren.

@ strange She needs a doctor.

[rehandle]

Where? I'm on my way.

@strange

[rehandle]

@ everyone

If Saber doesn't end up in a cage, would any of you help me keep him from Ani and Jake?

[vdovy]

[ Ani has been looking out for Bob and Jake was her one-that-got-away that month Yelena thought she was Carrie Bradshaw, so it's a no-brainer from her. ]

I'm in

@sriracha

[vdovy]

@everyone Status report now

@strange

[rehandle]

[ He's still absorbing the content of the post when this drops in the GC, so his check in arrives here first. ]

Alive, fine

@bob

[sensive]

[ after 12 hours of being catatonic, ]

i want to look into what happed to ash
he was killed before the wolves came out, same as adrian

embry already looked but nobody trusts him or hawk because they hate danny
so people who aren’t involved need to check or we’ll never get anywhere on figuring out what happened to him

[ and that’s what heroes do, right? they step up. ]

will you guys help?

@Stark

[ingeniar]

More of a making things guy than a CSI guy, but you've got to know it's not your fault, right. In case you're thinking that.

@strange

[rehandle]

[ Given what he's found, this has become a place he should consider being cautious. But they can't start that now. If there's ever been a need for teamwork and a willingness to trust, it's this, and while he gears up to the decision to share publicly, he'd better start somewhere. ]

Clark's cause of death was strangulation, the bruising indicating the use of something thin and strong. The decapitation was rough, not a clean cut, some level of difficulty on the part of whoever killed or staged him to make it through the neck. The wound was then cauterised completely.

If you can confirm any similar findings on any of the others, I'd like to hear about it.

[ And, an afterthought but an earnest one: ]

I'm sorry if any of you were close with him.

@bob

[sensive]

we didn’t have anything like that last round, right?
guy named will had his throat slit
paul too
but that’s as close as it gets

this round, eddie says iggy’s throat was cauterised too

can wolves work together?

[ tummy hurt. ]

@bob — ashtigation.

[sensive]

looks like danny got castiel last week and ash this week before he went to jail. embry clocked that the wounds are older, before the wolves come out. plus our notes:

Ash has some pretty significant defensive wounds on him, suggesting he fought off his attacker for a good long while — bruised knuckles and bruised knees and the like, although he's missing the same struggle wounds that Castiel had at his hands and feet, implying he was long dead by the time he was nailed to the door. Aside from the stab wound under his ribs which may or may not have been the final blow, there's a cut from the root of his phallus up to his belly button. Stephen, while examining the body, finds that a portion of his intestines have been removed. It seems Ash died standing up, and was quickly nailed to the door, no movement required.

@strange

[rehandle]

I'll see if I can find out what he did with the trophy.

[ Assuming that's what the intestines were. ]

@sriracha

[vdovy]

[ In light of this... ]

@everyone I think we need to revisit Misty Quigley

[wundagores]

I agree.

[and, after a beat:]

I'm sorry if that wasn't how you wanted people to know. I just didn't want to see Ren become a target again. It's what I thought would protect her.

@bob — text.

[sensive]

[ he sends a thread link ]

um
guys
i know everyone’s focused on the girls soccer team right now but

[ ]

[purpura]

that's not me btw, i know enough superheroes

that entire post is...bizarre. homelander talking about the business side of things makes it look like heroes in his world are working a really shady 9 to 5

are you guys the only actual team here? i hadn't stopped to think that would draw attention from others

@strange

[rehandle]

@ everyone

I think Koby was blindfolded, or otherwise had his vision obscured. But he saw a red pendant at his killer's throat.

[wundagores]

Do we know anyone who wears anything like that?

🔒 to yelena and bucky

[rehandle]

[ Sorry to everyone else, but he needs to speak to Bob's closest first. ]

I need to speak with you both about Bob.

[vdovy]

[ Not a worrying message to receive from Doctor Stephen Strange at all... ]

What about Bob?

@yelena&bob

[restored]

[No, he's decidedly not over it. But at least he's calmed down enough to be able to type out this message without throwing his phone through the window.]

i don't give a damn if you think you're a werewolf or what
either of you pull that shit again and i'm telling everyone who and what i am
stop painting targets on your own backs and start standing up for yourselves

[He had enough of that with Steve, thank you very much.]

[sensive]

hey bucky?
start helping us catch the actual wolves
especially the one that can still hurt yelena
or fuck off

[ yelena’s in jail 😔 ]

@Stark

[ingeniar]

So are we keeping this or what? I've got some thoughts on possible team bonding exercises if we are.

not here

[rehandle]

[ I'm not with this man ]
