((Aaaaand we're back))

((Sorta. I just moved into my apartment at uni today, so now I have more brain space for RPing and stuff. I’ll be around on my accounts, daily to at least check with what’s going on. I apologize to those of you whom I owe, and if you’d still like to continue what we’re up to, do please let me know and I will make sure that I get to those that the earliest time I can. But until I’ve got a rhythm down with life and school, and until I’ve finished introspecting on my characters to make them better, I probably won’t be capable of big RPs. Anyway, much love to all, thanks for sticking around so far, and I hope you’ll be able to stick around long enough for me to get back to things properly!))

((absence))

((Been a very busy two days, and it’s only going to get busier from here. Apologies to everyone, but my activity will likely decrease significantly for a little while. I’m returning for my senior year of uni next Fri and need to pack and organize and stuff, and then there will be starting classes and crap. And also I need to do a good deal of thinking about my characters and where I want them to go, so that they stop being “reactive” and start being more “proactive”. I think that may be my biggest problem, and it’s something I need to correct ASAP. I will try to be on as often as possible, though, so if you can be patient, I will just absolutely adore you. And also, my skype is available to you if you need.))

"Is anyone going to tell me what a file for the Beyond Corporation is on my desk? I handle primarily HYDRA affairs.”

[shieldsdynamicduo]

"So that's where that ended up! Sorry, sir, that should have been delivered to its proper recipient an hour ago. I was actually just talking to the very confused agent who got your HYDRA file. I'll have a word with our delivery guy, and in the mean time here is your proper file back."

Why I never RP with you: A short list

1. I have a crippling fear that if I show up in your ask box I’ll be annoying you.

2. I have a crippling fear we’ll start RPing and you’ll decide I’m boring.

3. Your talent is probably intimidating and I’m scared of not measuring up.

4. I see your open starters but either A) can’t for the life of me think of a response or B) am afraid if I answer you’ll be disappointed that it’s not someone else

5. Maybe we’ve RP’d before but you dropped the threads so now I’m convinced you hate RPing with me and I don’t want to pursue the subject

6. I was Rping with you but dropped the thread because I either missed your reply or couldn’t think of where I wanted to go with it and thought it was better it died rather than give you subpar replies.

7. I was RPing with you but you dropped the thread for some reason and I’m terrified you got bored with it and don’t want to push the subject

8.  I cannot for the life of me figure out how our characters would meet/have excuse to interact.

9.  You RP with what seem to be a small circle of people and I feel as though I would be unwelcome.

10.  I sit in your askbox and can never come up with anything that doesn’t sound stupid after I write it, freak out and resume lurking as normal

Anayeli sat across from Cecelia, listening to her speak. She smiled at the remark, shaking her head. “That sounds terrible, Cecelia, interesting or not. I came here to wait on my husband, actually. He should be getting back from work soon.” Anayeli look around at the other men and women around them, sighing softly. She hated to hear Cecelia was having a hard with Carbonell. The woman was respectable, and the doctor didn’t like to hear that she was being troubled.

"I come here on occasion, though. It’s nicer to wait for my husband here, where I know I’ll find him, than at home. I guess I can be a little impatient about seeing him…" Anayeli had been with her husband for seven years, and their marriage was what she’d call a blessing. After her first marriage went straight to hell… Well, she wasn’t giving John Flagler enough credit. He was a good man, but they lacked the love she felt for Clarence. They had only been married two years before they were separated by the war, and the contact they held was sparse, to say the least. Coming back to hear of his death had been hard on her, but it was more the knowledge that she was going back home with nothing to hope for that hit her hardest.

[shieldsdynamicduo]

"Oh, it's not so bad," she said, a brave statement that she didn't really feel, but the smile she managed this time was a fraction more genuine. "One of these days, it will all be sorted out and then... well, actually I'm not sure I'll know what to do with myself then. Anything at all, I suppose." It was surprisingly soothing to have someone besides Wesley to talk to about the goings-on of her life. Wesley was a rock for her, but there was only so much they could talk about regarding this... business... before it got repetitive. They were both keenly aware of the mess they were in. A fresh, ear, a fresh perspective, was good, even when they were in a place like the Underground. Also, it was much nicer to talk about more pleasant things like Anayeli's marriage.

"I see. And how is Clarence doing? I haven't seen much of him lately, but I do always hope the two of you are well." Cecelia cast a cursory eye around the establishment, but saw no sign of the good doctor's other half. In another time and place, she might have been rather taken with Clarence Stone herself. He was a good man, and it made her truly happy that Anayeli was with someone like him. Far better than the many alternatives out there. "It's so wonderful that you have each other. Happiness in a marriage is such an important thing. Understanding and partnership, as well. You two seem to have that down pat," she said, beaming.

((righto))

((So it’s been a very stressful, painful, emotional weekend and I’ve now finally recovered to the point that I can function properly. Back in the game, taking care of replies I owe, and ready to start up a small, steady stream of threads if anyone is interested. I say small because I go back to my final year of university two weekends from now so I don’t want to get to a point where things will back up again. Thanks to everyone who’s followed Orlando these last few days; we should totally talk soon. Just sayin’. And thanks for those who’ve continued to stick by both these accounts. It really means a lot. There aren’t oodles of you, but you all are fantastic and I appreciate every one of you. Right, enough with the mushy crap, moving on to replies.))

((Calm your tatas, Thor))

((I got thunder and lightning outside my window right now. Very awesome and pretty, though I have to wonder what pissed Thor off this time. Loki you little shit I swear to Thor's ever-white thunderpants Anyway, moving on, I just wanted to let folks know that I'm going out of town this weekend with my mum and may or may not have internet access. I mean, we'll be at a motel, so I assume there'll be wifi, but we'll see how often I'll be able to use it. So as of tomorrow morning, I'll be, for all intents and purposes, AWOL. But not actually AWOL, just skedaddled... fuckit, you get my meaning. This affects this account, agelessagentofshield, and shieldscheshirecat (though I've been neglecting her big time... oh well, she doesn't seem to mind that much at the moment).

If you need me, drop an ask or tag something as always!))

"And this is why I don’t look pleased." She chuckled, taking the files from her. "Don’t expect a thank you, either."

[shieldsdynamicduo]

"I wasn't holding my breath," she replied with a grin. "At least try to enjoy it. It's for a noble cause, and if you're having trouble sleeping, it's better than Ambien."

“Вы пошли в Сибирь, и это не наказание?" She was surprised when he spoke of where he was stationed.

“Я ревную тебя к обучению английскому говоря агенты имели в языках. Я надеюсь, чтобы узнать больше теперь, когда я нахожусь в Америке," she replied, smiling.

“Вы можете позвонить мне Заря. Заря Теплова."

[shieldsdynamicduo]

Wes chuckled. "Это конечно чувствовали наказание. Но я сделал это в одном куске. Это главное."

He listened and then nodded, half-shrugging at the same time. "Мы, британцы, немного лучше об изучении иностранных языков, чем многие американцы, но SHIELD имеет первоклассные лингвистики блок, который вы могли бы найти, чтобы быть хорошим ресурсом." Then he held out a hand with a grin. "Это удовольствие, Заря."\

"Ahhhh, I see. You’ve got quite a job ahead of you there. Human Resources really should have a map for newcomers," he sympathized. He took note of her accent and added, "Меня зовут Уэсли. Если вам нужна помощь, не стесняйтесь спрашивать.”

[shieldagentteplova-archive-blog]

She had to admit, she was delighted to find agents who spoke her language here. It was sometimes much easier on her mind to speak Russian instead of fighting with English. English was difficult and tiresome.

“Спасибо, Уэсли. Это очень любезно с вашей стороны. Это так приятно слышать русском в Америке."

[shieldsdynamicduo]

"С удовольствием." He offered a smile an nod. "МИ-6 предлагает отличную языковую подготовку для своих агентов. И я провел свою справедливую долю времени России. Я находился в Новосибирске в течение восьми месяцев в одной точке." And it had been a while since he'd had a chance to brush up on his Russian. It was pleasant to find he hadn't forgotten everything. "И то, что я могу вас называть?"

"It will be okay, my child. We will get this taken care of, and all will be right with the world. Now, would you like to swap the blouse or those pants?"

[shieldsdynamicduo]

"Ummm, let's go with the shirt. It's... I dunno, about three years old, I think? It should probably go. I'm not really fashion-savvy, but I think three years is too long to keep a shirt. Right?"

Nowhere specific, just trying to map the building so I will not get lost again. There is so much more to this branch of S.H.I.E.L.D. It is a lot to take in. *writes Interrogation on a piece of paper she’s been writing on for quite a while it seems*

Just that kind of night | open (1920s AU)

[thecarbonelldoctor]

Anayeli sat at a table, watching the men and women around her drink and chatter and go about their business. She sat alone, waiting on her husband to come in for the evening, like she did every now and then. Her job was simple- linger in the shadows until someone came in with a broken something or a cut other thing. In the years she had worked with Carbonell, she had cared for children, worked with bullet wounds of all shapes and sizes, and seen sickness (and on the occasion, death), but it never compared to her time in the Army Nurse Corps. She tried to bottle those memories up and keep them out of the way, but triggers tended to be her nightmare.

Anayeli caught sight of a pair walking by, standing out from the rest— Wesley Fox and Cecelia Chancy. She was well acquainted with Cecelia, after meeting her during the war. The doctor watched the two converse rather rigidly with one of the Carbonell’s men, frowning gently at the sight. As much as she liked and respected the woman, Cecelia didn’t belong in Carbonell’s business. It even became tough for Anayeli at times, but she had eased into this world, and followed along with the motions of the rest of them. Anayeli had chosen to follow along with her husband, and the two worked well together, as a couple and as part of Carbonell.

When Cecelia was the only one occupying the table, Anayeli stood and walked by. “What’s wrong, darling?" She asked, gesturing to a seat to ask if she could sit with her.

[shieldsdynamicduo]

She always found it difficult to fully relax in here. When Cecelia had first started coming here with Reg, it had been enjoyable more often than not and she'd almost liked the thrill of participating in something not strictly on the right side of legality. But then things had gone down hill, Reg had gotten in too deep with the proprietors and too attached to the booze, and... and then suddenly he wasn't there anymore. If it hadn't been for Wesley re-emerging in her life, she didn't think she'd have made it through any of this at all. What little joy she'd once derived from coming to the Underground had soured into fear and dread. One of these days, I'll get out of this mess, she told herself, staring at the wood grain of the table before her.

Cecelia felt rather than saw the approaching figure. She assumed it was her partner returning with something strong to make her problems feel weak. But when she looked up, it was a different familiar face she saw. "Anayeli," she exclaimed. She hadn't expected her friend to be here on this particular evening. The Carbonell's resident doctor was a welcome sight. She was certainly a good deal more pleasant company than the gentleman she'd just been dealing with. "Please, sit. " She nodded to the seat beside her and shifted in her own chair.

"Oh, a number of things, dear. Namely the fact that some men in this world can lack so many common manners," Cecelia said finally, managing a slightly forced smile. She did not have the same sort of high breeding as her late husband, but she still had her own sort of pride and dignity to uphold. "We were just sorting out a little business, nothing terribly interesting. I didn't expect to see you tonight. What brought you in?"
