WHO || The Knights
WHAT || Failboat returns from the disaster in LA as the Knighthood goes on lockdown
WHERE || The castle, London
WHEN || Directly after this, Fall 2017
HOW || Actionspam

Hasmed's announcement does not brook any rebuttal: all Knights are recalled to the Castle, where they must remain until the Section Heads and Jack Chessing have spoken about the events in Los Angeles that have left the Knighthood without their usual leader.  

The entire Los Angeles area is now covered with a dark miasma that has interfered with any signals that might be sent out from phones, etc., leaving the whole world wondering what exactly is happening down there.  Final images showed horrendous monsters, a panic of citizens, looting and violence from humans and Shadowkind alike.  

Hasmed has warned of extra magical wards on the castle, and anyone arriving will immediately take notice of one very prominent one: above the entire roof of the excessively large building hovers a black and red sigil in the air, a pentagram in a circle surrounded by runes or words in an unknown language, stretching for miles.  

[ This is the social log for post-LA lockdown.  Failboat must complete the top log before being allowed to tag outside of it. ]

It's okay. [Wade pats Fred's cheek in a way that might be comforting if it weren't coming from a masked madman.] I'm nuts. I don't have to make sense.

[nepotism]

[ don't touch him :| ] Yeah, well, nuts seems to be the order of the day around here lately.

[YOU don't touch HIM.] Aww, does that mean you brought me pistachios? You remembered!

[shootfirst]

You know, maybe having a raging psycho on the team is exactly what we need, considering the opposition.

[Deadpool whirls towards Kat, hands going to his cheeks, eyes wide, which somehow is noticeable through the mask.]

Did you get me a ticket to the Failboat? [He whispers the words almost reverently.] You won't regret this! I swear I will make it over the very, very low bar Archer set!

[nepotism]

Pretty sure she meant the Knights in general, although you can keep your nicknames to yourself. [ he looks at kat ] "Failboat"? Really?

[meta]

I mean, "Failtruck" just doesn't have the same ring.

[shootfirst]

Honestly? It kinda has a ring to it.

Don't think anyone's gonna fight you on that one, bud. [ he puts his arm around kat's shoulder and steers her down a side hall. bye deadpool ]
