[Lunatia's resident centaur lady is back on screen, excitedly trying to... set her network device up somewhere where it can actually get all of a rather large frame into the shot. Not that she waits to start talking.]

Greetings, everyone! I didn't realize it's been months since I last used this for "posting"... There's probably so many new people, so, um, very quickly- If you don't know me, my name is Konoha! I'm a jinba... Or a "centaur" if you want! And oh, that's my husband, Gonta... and our friend, Mikuni! Say hello, you two!
[Catching sight of the other jinba behind her pausing in their field work, she moves the camera to show a large palomino fellow (Gonta) who gives a gruff nod and semi-wave, and an elegant ebony-coated gentleman? (Mikuni) who dips into a more proper bow with a little smile.]
We run the Tsurugi Farmstead in the Greatmoon Groves! There was a lot of damage when it flooded before, but thanks to everyone's efforts we're back up and running properly... and we've had our first fall harvest!
So... as a bit of a thank you, and also maybe to celebrate not dealing with those awful nightmares anymore, I thought we could have a hotpot party here by the river? In my village we usually make imoni in the autumn, it's so delicious! It's full of beef and taro root and leeks and konnyaku... Mmm!
[She finally gets the device set up properly and trots back into frame properly, obviously excited by the invitation she's making.]

Cordis is almost over, right? So now seems like a good time before Iris shows up... But if you have a Cordis appetite, don't worry! We'll supply all the imoni... or, the ingredients, anyway, it's more fun if you cook it outside with everyone. We also have fresh sweet potatoes, pumpkin, new rice... oh, and persimmons!
But if you want to share anything, feel free to bring your own dish, too! Let's say... tomorrow? I'll send directions for anyone who hasn't visited before, alright?
I hope we see you there! Er, here, I mean! If you have any questions, just let me know!
[And with a last smile, she gives a big, respectful bow from the "waist" before moving to grab her device, a muffled "Gonta, Mikuni, wait up- !" before the feed cuts, and a moment later a pin on the Lunatian map app becomes available.]
SENT:
📍 TSURUGI FARMSTEAD, GREATMOON GROVES
[ooc: there won't be separate log posted for this, but I'll gladly action tag within this post with anyone interested!]

[But what Re-L says about waking up cold... it’s not that she doesn’t understand it, but-]
That sounds sad...
no subject
Where I was born.. everyone was born to serve a purpose. They had a personality tailored to their purpose in the Dome... very cog to the wheel.
I don't know if everyone in that set up knowing to read is amazing or.. just purposeful.
[ It is sad, in its own way. Re-L can't deny as much and there's no way she can stomach telling Konoha a lie to make things seem rosier. So instead there's a rueful little huff of a laugh, and a shrug. ]
It can be, at times. But between Vincent, Pino, and Kristeeva.. it's much freer than how I was raised. I get to choose what I do, and when, and how I proceed in life without worrying about my 'purpose.'
It's.. having my own sovereignty is a novelty that will never go away.
no subject
Isn't learning how to ready always for a purpose?
[So!]
I hope you get to keep being your own person, though... Even though I know having duties and responsibilities is normal... I think there's a difference between those and not being able to do at all what you want to.
no subject
Yes. But if you can't choose what you learn after I don't know if it's necessarily a good purpose.
[ Philosophical shit, basically. The merit of learning if it's not for the sake of your passions, that kind of thing. Re-L's not really sure if that's what they want to get in to, here, but it's something she thinks of often now that she's away from it all. ]
There's nothing else to do other than that, so I stand a fair chance at it.
[ Romdeau being rubble, and all. ] If anything, it's why I hope I don't remember it. Life has been nearly hedonistic here, and with Iggy being alive here.. let's just say it will be less of a whiplash, if I don't remember what's happened, here.
no subject
[Konoha definitely doesn't feel qualified to debate philosophical differences between things, let alone about someone else's world... so she'll just have to trust Re-L on this one.]
Your friend isn't alive in your world anymore... ? ... I'm really sorry.
[Even still, Konoha would want to remember... but she certainly can't tell the other woman how to feel about something so personal.]
