[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.

[Coulson gives Rogue an amused look.]

I think I can remember the layout. Anything change while I was away? Other than more items I'll have to inventory.

[He almost sighs. Really, he had been making such progress before.]

You did keep my notes on the inventory right?

[Pretty sure she would have but just to make sure. Unless they somehow vanished when he did.]

[She gave him a bit of a wry look.]

Sorry. [She held up one gloved hand and made a "poof" motion with it.] They didn't stay behind.

[She hadn't completely understood why he'd wanted to start one anyway. It wasn't as if they had any control over what showed up. But when she'd seen how content it made him, she hadn't put a stop to it.]

[Argh. Coulson sighs then shrugs.]

Oh well. Guess I get to start over. I think I have a better idea of how the system should go now anyways.

[And once inventory is done he may end up rearranging the shelves a bit.]

You know, we should probably consider announcing once every two weeks or so about personal items. Not everyone thinks to come by and check.

[Rogue's eyebrows rose slightly. She's still smiling though, her tone friendly, teasing.]

SHIELD agents always come in an' try ta tell other people how ta run their affairs? [She shook her head. Another universal constant.] You make an announcement like that so frequently, I guarantee ya, you'll be dealin' with a lynch mob outside of four months. People comin' in, wanting things we won't have, the constant reminder on top of the constant disappointment... An' there's a reason I keep what stuff comes in hidden.

[And it wasn't as though they got all that much stuff that was deemed personal, or that it stayed there for long.]

[Coulson blinks then grins a bit.]

It's a bad habit of mine, though I'm sure Fury hires for people with like talents. [Make of that what you will.]

I suppose that is true. I was rather of the thought that they'd let us know what they were looking for and we'd tell them if we had it. Not have them come flocking to the shop. But you have a point. Not sure I want to deal with a mob.

I ain't saying they'd come at you all at once now, but... [She trailed off with a shrug.] If you wanna talk with Raine about emphasizing it in the Guide, or makin' a reminder at the end of every cycle, that should be okay.

Those are both good ideas. Hmmm, well the additional emphasis in the guide would mean less work but it could still be overlooked...

[Coulson looks thoughtful.]

Both could work. I'll think about it some more, since I'd rather have the inventory mostly done before anything goes out.

[Man, he is gung-ho about that inventory. Well, it help him feel useful. And less stir-crazy.]

I think we've got some ledgers in with the stationary stuff, if ya wanna take a look.

[She shook her head a little. Honestly, she didn't understand why he wanted to do this. But he was welcome to it.]

[It's because Coulson also has control issues. Inventory helps him take back control.]

That would be good. I'll go take a look.

[Coulson turns and heads over to where he remember where the stationary was.

After a moment he picks out a plain worn black leather ledger. It's very much like the ones he had back home. He flicks it open and idly looks at the inside and paper before pausing.

...It's exactly like the one he had back home in his desk. Only unused. Okay, chalk that up to this place being weird as hell.]

...The minute I think I'm used to this place... [It's a quiet mutter but Rogue could possibly overhear.]

Ya realize you've made a terrible mistake?

....Basically.

[He turns and show Rogue the ledger.]

This is mine, only it's blank. Even has the repaired tear on the back cover it got during a stapling incident.

[And by stapling incident he means full on fight with various stationary objects against a target during an undercover op. Blood stains don't show up on black leather that well, interestingly enough.]

Huh. Weird that it's blank.

Yeah... [Coulson looks at it.]

Then again, knowing what was in it... probably a good thing.

Well, this will work for inventory.

Well... good luck with that.

[Rogue smiled at him.]

I've gotta get goin' or I'll be late. If ya need anything, though...

[You know. Just ask.]

[Phil gives Rogue a warm smile.]

I will ask. I think I'll be fine for now though.

Go, don't be late.

And... thanks.
