I shore hope I'm doing this right. All these machines are so complicated!

Oh Feferi
Im Glad To See Youre Back
Though Unless Im Misreading It Doesnt Seem As If "Back" Is Necessarily A Word That Will Have Any Real Meaning For You
Or Well I Suppose At Certain Interpretations Of The Idea It May Still Depending On What Events Youve Experienced On Our Native Timeline

[tastesrainbows]

Oh, I wouldn't discount Life, it can be so deeply vital, after all! There was, for instance that time... [ oh wait ] ...nevermind. Perhaps it may manifest itself in some other way now, there's really no telling!

But yes, we can go immediately, if you'd like. There's no large need for anything today, though we have a few events scheduled for tomorrow!

[condascending]

I sure hope so! I never had much opportunity to play with it in the game! [this time she manages not to flinch.]

But enough glubbing around. I can't wait to see what this place is like! Let's go! [she pops forward on the balls of her feet a little for punctuation and oh that was a bit loud]

[tastesrainbows]

[ that's okay, kanaya is way too endeared to feferi to be bothered by momentary indiscretions of volume. she finds the thread she's after and uses it to pull open a new portal, this time to an empty room with just a few boxes in the corner ]

Very well, we can travel directly to your new respiteblock, then!

hhhhhh slow forever

[condascending]

And just like that, we're there? It's okay to go through, right?

[without waiting for an answer feferi strides to the middle of the room and turns in a circle, glancing it over. then she about-faces back to kanaya and claps her hands together]

It's perfect! Thank you, Kanaya!

So where are we?

backtags forever jsyk, but wow i keep getting distracted oops sorry for lateness D:

[tastesrainbows]

[ she walks in behind feferi and glances about the room before letting the portal close ]

Oh, you might still be in need of a bed. [ she turns back to the MAC room, pondering. but no that would be rude and stealing, wouldn't it? ]

But we're presently located in a hivestem in another location, [ I DON'T KNOW GEOGRAPHICALLY WHERE ] expanded with the use of legitimate and not by any means imaginary magic to resemble a much larger residential space. I wasn't responsible for it, of course, that's the doing of our hivemates. I had mentioned they were magically inclined, yes?

it's all cool we can be late buddies

[condascending]

A bed? Oh, I suppose we have to use those now, don't we? Well, they must be comfortable if humans like them so much!

Yes, I think you did. If you say it's magic, Kanaya, then it must really be magic. [glub!] I am not very surprised to hear it, to be honest. With everything else that's happened, why not?

[her face suddenly brightens, like she's just thought of something] Hey! Are they here right now? You should introduce me to them!

aw yeah the latest

[tastesrainbows]

[ she lets the threads go and the portal closes behind her, the temptation no longer present ]

Well, recuperacoons wouldn't serve any great deal of purpose with an entirely lacking supply of sopor, so beds are the most serviceable alternative. We'll acquire one for you before the end of the day.

But yes, I suppose we could bring you to the acquaintance of these Weasleys we share a hive with. There's a Fred, George, and Ginny, though their sibling Ron visits on occasion. He appears older, but the birth order apparently favors Fred and George due to some discrepancy in their personal timelines.

[condascending]

[while kanaya speaks, feferi meanders around the room, as if making mental notes of the future layout. when kanaya stops, feferi turns to look to her again]

They sound pretty interesting! I'd love to meet them. Wouldn't want to surprise them by moving a stranger in right in the middle of their hive, hahaha!

[oh but wait] Unless I've met them already. Maybe it would be better to wait a little, in that case. What do you think, Kanaya?

[tastesrainbows]

[ kanaya frowns and furrows her brows ]

I'm not fully certain to what degree you were familiar with them previously. You were exported shortly before we accomplished the transfer to this location, and many of us weren't terribly acquainted with them prior to that.

oh my god I was going to respond to this hours ago I'm so sorry

[condascending]

Well, good. I wouldn't want everything here to be awkward! I have a fishy feeling I'm going to be getting enough of that as it is.

[feferi walks over to kanaya and takes both her hands]

Shall we go, then? If you're not too busy, I mean! I can float around by myself for a while if I have to. I still haven't seen any of the City yet!

it's okay i probably wouldn't have gotten to it till now anyway

[tastesrainbows]

Oh, certainly! Which destination shall we elect to venture to as our primary destination, then? We could introduce you to the Weasleys, or commence on a exploration of the City with the intention of acquiring you a bed, or perhaps you'll have something else in mind?

[condascending]

I'd like to meet these Weasleys since I'm already here, unless getting a bed takes a really long time or something. I don't know, I've never had one before!

I'll have to get decorations and stuff too. Can't have this place so bare forever.

But yeah, let's go say hi!

[tastesrainbows]

They have a retail outlet on the first floor, perhaps we could visit momentarily to introduce you before redirecting our attention to these other matters. There certainly will be no small amount of work necessary in your settling, and we still have the party to prepare for tomorrow.

[condascending]

[feferi's eyes widen] Wow, sounds like I came at a pretty inconvenient time! Haha, oops. What's the party for? Do you need any help setting up?

In any case, it sounds like this outlet is the place to be!

[should we do a back-date log or...]

[tastesrainbows]

No, it's quite alright. If I've become skilled in any tasks, then balancing various obligations would be in possession of a notable position on that list. But you're familiar with Jade, yes? Well, here birth--[ wait would feferi be familiar with that word yet ]--wiggling day passed recently, so we're staging a celebration in accordance to human customs. It's meant to be a secret to both her and Strider, who's also included in the occasion due to the proximity of his own.

If you'd like to participate, I'm sure it could be arranged. If you'd like, I mean.

[ maybe! i'd have to ask the muns involved ]
