Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Waking Up Sixteen

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Remy wakes up in bed with his wife. Who doesn't know who he is. Or remember that she's married. Or any of those, you know, minor details... (NC-17: SEXUAL CONTENT)
( Chere? Oh Goddess, not a Frenchman )

Doug wakes up almost naked. In bed with a woman. Who he knows, but doesn't know him...
( And when did I get a sixpack? )

Remy goes looking for the other members of X-Force. First stop is Cammie, who has woken up in a strange apartment, and has decided that she's going to rip off whoever lives there...
( You not 16. Dis is your apartment )

Remy finally finds someone who doesn't think they're sixteen. Of course, it's the newest member of X-Force, who's only nineteen...
( Wh-what? For reals? )

Remy checks in on Sarah, who is also affected, and she's really really not happy with Remy. So nothing new there.

( They're fucking dead, asshole. Don't you dare try to use them to get to me. )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Waking up Sixteen, Part II

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

This day is not getting any better for the rest of X-Force either, or their overnight guests.

Marie-Ange and Amanda wake up amnesic and confused, and so does Wade.

( Will you please stop talking like you are ... are my age? You are at least twenty-five. You did not have school, you do not live with a dad, not unless you are special and I do not think that adults who need special care are allowed to go to gyms and you are too in shape to be one of those people who needs a caretaker. )

Wanda wakes up with one Doctor Stephen Strange, who has no better luck trying to find out what went wrong.

( Unless it is some other word for a brothel? Do you think I am a whore? I bet you do! All Rom women are whores, you say, even though you do not turn us down! )

Finally, some semblance of responsible adult arrives! In the form of Nico, so we're dubious on how responsible and adult things really are. She does sort of explain X-Force to the three not-quite-teens, and gets them moving to the office.

( This is basically a Special Operations kind of team thing. I'm not really good at explaining, but think of it as a bunch of people doing good for others from the shadows, usually being as...shadowy as possible. )

On her way out the fire escape, Wanda encounters Christophe Nord, and they both encounter Remy. Miraculously, no one dies.

( We going back inside de Brownstone and we all going to have a little chat, where I explain why you think you've woken up someplace strange. Remy is in an unbelievably bad mood right now, so let's not make dis hard, neh? )

But whatever happened to Dr. Stephen Strange? Alberta, Canada happened. Strange/Tim Hortons OTP 4 EVER.

( He's not wearing any pants! Sheri, look! )

(no subject)

( She woke to a knife in her head. )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - History (backdated)

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Backdated to January 10th. Doug wanders around the office between duties on Tuesday, and happens upon Christophe Nord. Realizing how much history the other man is missing, Doug decides to fill him in on some of the major happenings.

( I thought it might be something you ought to know? )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Trying to live up to yourself

[x-scarletwitch.livejournal.com]

The job description never stated Remy would need to counsel 'teenagers' but that's exactly what he finds himself doing when he finds Wanda trying to come to terms what what's going on.

( So I what I need you to do is just be you, do what I ask, and trust me dat anything dat I ask you to do is something dat you're able to. )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Getting it Together

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Remy and Nico have dragged all of X-Force to the offices - or in Emma's case, to the boardroom, and they attempt to figure out exactly what the hell is going on.

( When Remy was relying on Nico to help him plan an investigation, it had to be a sign of the Mayan Apocalypse. Didn't jaguers come to eat the Earth this year or something? Remy could only hope. )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - How Do You Hack Yourself?

[x-cypher.livejournal.com]

Remy needs to find Glorian. The problem is, his hacker is about seven years behind the technology curve. And without the seven years of built-up institutional paranoia. Step one: get access to systems.

Also Doug finds out that he has an absurdly large...porn stash.

( But I need you to focus only on de task at hand. Not go roaming around de internet loading up wit' as much information as you can gobble up. )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Wait, we're dating?

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

Doug goes seeking out Marie-Ange as one of the few people he remembers that remembers him, and finds out something he was truly not expecting.

( Can...can you think of any reason why Jamie wouldn't even take my calls? )

Sooraya and Maddie [Backdated]

[x-pryor.livejournal.com]

Sooraya brings food to the girl in the Box and Maddie promises to teach her to ice skate, and other winter activities.

( Normally I would be worried that birds are talking to you... )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Future Interrogative tense

[x-tarot.livejournal.com]

When Remy stops by what is/will be Marie-Ange's office, she has questions for him.

( Do you really think dat you could make sense of de decisions that you had to make at various points in you life from de perspective of a teenager? )

Teenage Wasteland: Slumber Party - Amanda and Marie-Ange

[xp_daytripper]

While waiting for something to happen, Amanda and Marie-Ange catch up on two entirely different lives.

( Good t' know there's some perks t' this whole bein' old thing, at least. )

Operation: Teenage Wasteland - Abdominal Muscles and Video Games

[x-deadpool.livejournal.com]

Doug and Wade decide that hiding from the girls is the better part of valor - and that, while they have no idea how they got six packs, they're not gonna let that bother them. Not when video games from 2012 await them.


( So...apparently our band's agent is actually the Devil... )
