Hi, ah.

[ Awkward fingergun for you, network. ]

Quick question, the reason for it will sound obvious given recent events. [ ie: that giantass flood that ruined everyone's homes. ] Does anybody here own any of the ships docked in the port about a ten minute walk above the Crystal Beach? Specifically, the large galleon. I know a few are owned by companies and the other dock is strictly for Lunar Knights, but I'm looking to make a purchase or strike a deal for that ship in particular.

I'm Fjord. Thanks ... for your time.

Like the ship we looked at?

[halforc]

Kore!

[ Surprised to see her, his smile spreads wide. ]

Yeah, the big wooden one with the sails. [ It's exciting to think about, owning a ship again. ] It wouldn't be so bad to have an emergency house that floats, right?

[ragingnature]

[ As much as she'd like to switch to video she's dealing with some new changes this month... ]

No, I suppose not. Especially after the flooding.

oop, *hear her

[halforc]

Exactly my thinking, and that galleon is big enough for everyone at the house now that there's four of us.

[ragingnature]

Well, that's good. I hope it works out.

Speaking of moving! Eros, Hades, and I are looking to find a place. Which isn't easy when Hades has eight dogs to consider.

[halforc]

[ It's good to hear Persephone has her friends around, it eases his old concerns for her welfare.

But, ] Why does he have eight dogs?

[ragingnature]

Because he really likes dogs?

[ Switching to PRIVATE and managing to do so for once. ]

I think he adopted them all because he was lonely. [ And maybe he still is, though she certainly hopes not. ]

[halforc]

[ Ooo, a private line. Tea. He is here for it. ]

Why is he lonely when he has you and [ what was that other guy's name, ] Ero ... tics?

[ragingnature]

Eros.

The dogs are all from home. Somehow he managed to bring seven of them here with him. I accidentally carried Pomelia back with me a while back...

But I certainly hope he's not feeling lonely here. Especially now...

[halforc]

Especially now what?

[ Put some sugar in this tea, Perse!! ]

[ragingnature]

Now that we're dating.

[halforc]

I see ...

[ragingnature]

What is it?

[halforc]

I'm just happy for you.

[ That's genuine. He clears his throat to curiously ask, ]

Can I ask what happened to the whole "other woman" theme you were worried you'd be perpetuating if he came here? Wasn't he dating someone else back home?

[ragingnature]

Thanks.

They broke up before he arrived here. [ Trying not to sound happy about it. ]

Apparently Eros told me but there's some kind of strange time discrepancy going on because he didn't tell me before I came back here.

[halforc]

[ Lucky for both of them.

Fjord pauses, feeling a bit bad. ]

I didn't know you'd gone home and returned again. [ He's very interested to know, ] Did you remember everything from your first visit here?

[spacegoat]

For the fishing or the exploring?

[ Here Fjord, have some awkward finger guns fired right back at you. Because that's totally how you communicate via these devices isn't it? ]

Oh, hey. I eh, I saw you're looking for a ship? Can I help?

[ Caduceus would do anything he could for his friends, here and back home. He'd gladly do whatever it takes to make sure Fjord gets the ship he wants. ]

[halforc]

Bit of both, not much else to do around here. [ Squinting at the sight of her ... ] Didn't we meet before?

[ragingnature]

I didn't tell anyone since I... I think I crystallized. [ She didn't want anyone to worry about her. ]

I didn't remember anything while I was back home. It was as if I'd never left. Which... I suppose is a good thing.

[halforc]

[ Someone's been trying out new usernames, he sees. Hey, fingergun buddy! ]

Well, I already found the one I want, she's a beauty. You could, ah, help me pay for it, though. With, you know. Chroma.

[halforc]

Oh, shit. I ... hope that wasn't too awful.

[ y i k e s. ]

I was afraid it'd be like that. How did you manage to come back if you didn't know about Lunatia?

[eyesofthegrave]

[ You can blame Star Lord for that! He's been showing Caduceus how to better use the technology! ]

Sure, I'd love to help pay for it. How do I do that? Do I gotta hug the boat or?

[ Forgive him, Fjord, he's still not used to the way things work here. ]

[ragingnature]

It really sucked...

The same way we all initially arrive, by whatever strange magic this place holds. I remember waking up on Iris and after the initial confusion, I remembered everything else.

[halforc]

[ Star Lord, the Corrupter. ]

No, you'd have to hug ... me.
