At the Causeway, Sunday Morning

[not_a_whiner]

The weather on Fandom itself was cold and humid, and certainly didn't invite you into going out and standing around in the morning - unless there was something better waiting on the horizon. Soon, their scheduled portal would arrive and whisk them away to Marmaris, Turkey to begin their cruise along the Turkish coast.

It was also summer there. Wasn't Portalocity grand?

Pack up and get to the causeway, kids. Escape from the elements.

[[ a trip post will be up later in the day! have at. ]]

Liara had a small bag with her - she still did not own entirely too many clothes, and most of them were not fit for the weather she had been told to expect.

Unfortunately, she had also dressed for the weather she had been told to expect, and so she might have been shivering just a little bit.

Kaidan brought a big duffel bag full of clothes (and okay, some gear. You never knew what was going to happen). The Alliance had given him the go-ahead to go on this trip, calling it a prime outreach opportunity-- which basically meant he was expected to work on the trip.

Somehow, he couldn't get too sad about that - even if he would have been a year ago.

Armed with his extra-strength sunglasses and a sleeveless t-shirt (plus fingerless gloves), Mitchell was as ready for this as he was going to be.

He had a list full of things George wanted him to get from Turkey in his pocket. (Nina had been much more considerate and just given him one thing to bring.)

Sigh, sun. He lit up a cigarette.

Ha. 'Packing.'

Well, okay, Atton did bring a bag. It was just not terribly huge. What? He didn't need much.

Peter had a backpack and a phone.

Instead of attempting to deal with anyone else here, his eyes were glued to said phone while he read and sent emails at a truly ridiculous rate. At least the gulets would have wifi. ... They better actually have wifi.

Korra had a small pack and a large polar bear dog. So it evened out, pretty much.

Jessica had a couple bags. She probably could have made due with just one, but she needed the extra room to put her costume and SHIELD tech into the hidden compartments in her bags. She wasn't expecting to use any of that stuff, but it paid to be prepared.

At the moment, being prepared meant wearing gloves that worked with her phone's touch screen so she could play games while she waited for the group to embark.

Jack hadn't packed... well... anything, really. What in the world would he pack? He had the clothes on his back and the staff in his hand, and that was good enough for him.

He'd never really been on a vacation before. Not technically. This was going to be a learning experience.

Sparkle, in true Canadian fashion, had packed for pretty much any weather that might possibly strike. Chilly nights? Long sleeves and jeans. Brain-baking hot days? Shorts. Tank tops. Standing here on the Causeway waiting for the portal? Winter togs, of course.

Some people might call his packing job excessive. He called it thorough.

To all appearances Yeul had done zero packing and had come with absolutely nothing.

This wasn't true. Everything was just all in her pockets.

[nottrivial]

Alec had definitely overpacked.

The bags at his feet contained a ton of clothing, not to mention the odd seraph blade or quiver of arrows, and the amount of clothing currently on his body as they waited for the portal in the cold was nothing to sneeze at, either.

He was suddenly really appreciating Kate making him buy all those new sweaters. Cashmere was comfy. Who knew?

[dollpocalypse]

Topher had his usual bag of technology that might or might not work when they got to... he wasn't one hundred percent sure where they were going.

He should have gone with the science fair in Baltimore.

"Okay, Old Lace," Gert muttered to her dinosaur as the portal started to materialize. "Get ready to spend a week hiding."

Sigh. Where was Nico to to turn a deinonychus into a puppy when you needed her?

Hanna was so ready for this trip. She couldn't wait to get away from a lot of things for awhile.

Of course, being Hanna, she had an excessive amount of luggage. What? She needed all this stuff. Really.

Mercy couldn't wait to leave - well, not so much to leave Fandom, but to get to go explore yet another cool country. So she was waiting with a big smile on her face, all set to head off.
