Debrief 001 | [Action/Voice] | Déjà vu?

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson wakes up, trees to his left and right and a path right in front of him. A short distance down the path and to the right he can see a house, actually he can see a few houses from where he is. Everything seems familiar.

The sensation of familiarity is disquieting at first, until everything comes back.

Well... that explains a lot.

Coulson looks around and spots his journal, but sadly there are no clothes this time. So he's stuck in the usual new feather garb of white pants. After being in dark suits for most of his life, he's not sure he likes those pants. With the nice new scar on his chest and back, he's not sure he likes the fact he's shirtless. Also, there is a chill in the air which makes being shirtless very uncomfortable.

Using the mountains and the river, both to his left, he manages to orient himself. With this knowledge he heads towards town center to visit the clothing shop and get dressed. You may run into him a he heads to the clothing shop. Feel free to notice the fresh looking scar almost directly over his heart (but not actually) and the bigger one on his back. Coulson may greet you, but mainly he's focusing on getting to the clothing shop. Unless things happen.]

((ooc; Location is over by House 4, just a short distance up the path leading towards the farmlands.))


[After getting clothes and after whatever adventures happen while he was getting clothing, Coulson puts together a first new post to the Luceti community.]

Greetings Luceti.

My name is Phil Coulson. I have been here before a few months back before... leaving and it seems I have returned.

As far as I know I don't have any unfinished business from before, but If I did have some with you please remind me.

I have probably missed a lot, but is there anyone whose willing to give me a brief summary of things I've missed? I'd be grateful.

[Small pause.]

I think that's all... No wait, Rogue, do you still need help at the item shop? Sorry for leaving you in the lurch.

[neversurrender]

[He almost doesn't believe it. And if this had been anywhere else besides Luceti, he would have thought he's going crazy for sure. But, no. It's him. Just as surely as Howard and Bucky and...Peggy are here. He's back from the dead. Again.]

Hello again.

[Steve smiles wide, genuinely happy to see Coulson again.]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson gives a small smile as he sees Steve. It's like a natural reaction. See Steve and involuntary smile. Especially with the wide smile he's sporting.]

Hello again to you too. How have you been?

video;

[neversurrender]

[How has he been? If that isn't a loaded question...]

I've been okay. In fact...I have something of yours. [Yes. A very nice, subtle conversation change.]

[Video]

[asthehawkflies]

[He'd said it to Steve hadn't he? It was one thing to know that a person could come back from the dead here, and quite another to see it in front of him.

He stares at the video for a long time before he can reply, because what exactly do you say?

Sorry for planning and executing the attack that got you killed? Sorry for helping that bastard get onto the Helicarrier?

But there's only so long he can hold it off before he replies because he doesn't doubt that Coulson will find him.]

Not like you to be unsure of details like that, sir.

[Video]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson blinks in surprise. Is that...]

Barton?

[Because the last time he saw you, you were not yourself. But you are obviously not mind controlled anymore, so that's good.]

Well, I remember being here, but some things from right before I wasn't here anymore are foggy.

When did you get here?

[Video]

[asthehawkflies]

In the flesh and in the mind too.

[Foggy? That's never a good thing in his experience.]

Couple of months ago. Already been drafted once.

[Voice]

[wildbluevagner]

[So this guy's been here before and seems to still have his memories. With everything he's been learning about this place, Kurt isn't sure whether or not he should be jealous. But he's offering help to Rogue, so he may be a friend.]

I wish I could help you with that, man, but I'm in a similar situation. Except I don't remember the last time I was here. [Pause, then continued nervously.] Wait, you don't already know me, do you?

[Voice]

[somethingtoavenge]

Interesting. I suppose it's different for each person...

[Studies the image.]

No, I don't believe we met, if you were here when I was here.

[Voice]

[wildbluevagner]

I can check how the dates match up, but I bet you'd know me if we were here at the same time, if you're a friend of Rogue's, too. The name's Wagner. Kurt... Wagner. [Yes, said in a German-accented attempt at a Bond.]

[handing]

[Well. At least it's a welcome face this time.]

Welcome back, Phil.

[She's glad to see him. Maybe less enthusiastic than before, but he's alive again. Pepper can't regret that, even under the circumstances.]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson gives Pepper a smile.]

Good to be back Pepper.

[Though, he does notice her lack of enthusiasm he puts it down to it not being as much of a shock as before.]

How have you been?

voice;

[rightfootforward]

[She would have watched the journal and moved on if it hadn't been for the sheer number of people she knew showing up here to welcome this man back. Obviously he was from the future, but how?]

It seems a welcome is in order, Mr. Coulson. Although I'm a recent arrival myself, so I have more questions than answers for you.

voice;

[somethingtoavenge]

[Well, your picture is familiar.]

Thank you, ah, Ms. Carter. [He's not sure if he should call you Agent Carter or not.] It's a pleasure to meet you. I suspect you probably do have more questions than I do. Can I be any help?

[Because Captain America is his hero, but you are someone he respects. Especially from a professional point of view.]


((ooc; Damn, I forgot to mention him as an Agent of SHIELD. Not sure it'd mean much to her, but it might of.))

[redjacketthief]

[Lupin paused in his morning coffee and now totally-not-a-smoke ritual when he found this feed over the journal. It was standard new feather...no, returnee, stuff. He almost flipped the page--

But a request for info was a thing.]

What's the last thing you remember around here and what do you want to know?

[Said far too casually. He was barely awake. Sue him.]

Voice

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson thinks back a minute.]

It was September. Beginning of September.

[Coulson doesn't mind you being casual. All the better to gather info on get to know you.]

[Video] WELL WE KNEW IT HAD TO HAPPEN.

[complicatedliar]

You look much improved since I last I saw you.

[Video] I AM SO SHOCKED-no no not really FUN TIMES AHEAD

[somethingtoavenge]

[Coulson frowns faintly at Loki. Inside he's cursing in seventeen different languages.]

I would hope so. You look the same.

[Cue bland smile.]

Still no conviction. Such a shame.

[ voice ]

[touchofrogue]

[Oh. Well. This would always be interesting. She'd helped Steve deal with your things, you know.

...but she could do casual.]

I haven't hired anybody else. If ya think you'll be bored again, I can still give ya a shift.

[ voice ]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Nope, Coulson did not know. Wow, this has the potential of so much awkward.]

While things seem like they are shaping up to be a bit more... exciting than before I think I'd still enjoy working there.

That shift would be great, thanks. I can start tomorrow, since I don't need as much time to settle in. Would that work for you?

[Video]

[thefinaljedi]

[Well there's a face he missed.]

Hello again, Phil.

It's good to see you back. Well, as good to see you as possible.

[Video]

[somethingtoavenge]

[Luke Skywalker being real never stops being mind blowing.]

Hello Luke.

It's good to be back. How have you been?

voice;

[alloys]

[This place is just one big revolving door of familiar faces, isn't it? Not that Tony isn't glad. Coulson being here meant he was alive.

Even if living here had been far from ideal lately.]

I suppose a 'welcome back' is in order. So there you have it: welcome back.

Re: voice;

[somethingtoavenge]

[Ah Tony. How he's missed you.]

Thanks. It's good to be back.

[No doubt about that. Even the craziness of Luceti beats the nothing he just came back from.]

How have you been?

[By this time Coulson realizes some seriously bad shit went down during the time he's been ...gone. The question is less idle and more genuinely concerned.]

[Voice]

[not_a_troll]

That means you are a New but Old Feather, yes?

[Voice]

[somethingtoavenge]

Essentially, that's correct. Or a Returned Feather, that would also be apt.
