caughtinanetwork | Disciple has a one year anniversary.

[A new non-filtered video hits the network. In it is a older oliveblooded troll many will recognize. She is sitting cross-legged on some sort of large stuffed chair in the shape of a cat. Unlike many of her public postings this one appears to be actually intentional. She has certainly come a long way in understanding the communications technology of this place. She takes a sip from a steaming teacup and addresses the camera.]

One year. It is a human measurement of time. The time it takes the human planet, Earth, to complete one full orbital revolution around its parent star.

[A pause as she takes another sip of tea.]

It seems my starfish communicator has let me know that it was just over one human year ago that I first arrived here in Vatheon. It is a rather arbitrary distinction for one of my race, as we do not share the same measurement of time. One of our own orbital sweeps lasts as long as 26 human months. Regardless, it has still got me thinking about all my time spent here.

This place has given me many things. The chance to once again have that which I had lost. A chance to meet those that I would not otherwise have been able to. It has given me a chance to forgive, both myself and others. I have had opportunities here that I would not have even dreamt of back home. That is not to say that it has been completely enjoyable. This place certainly has a way of sticking a knife into your chest and then slowly turning it.

Well, that is enough of my ramblings. To those of you I know, I look forward to another human year together. To those that I do not know, let us change that.

[Disciple raises her teacup in salute, smiles one last time into the camera, and the feed cuts.]

Either can I. For now I shall go and try to rope some others into helping me. I will definitely be in touch once I get more details of this thing figured out. Maybe we can get together before the party to having a little baking excursion to make plans for it?

Si, si! I'd like that~ Then we can plan.

Planning is good. The prospect of a large party is still a little daunting, but with all my friends helping me I am sure it will be amazing.

I'll try to help making it less daunting~

I am sure you will. I do not suppose you happen to have any experience hosting a larger party like this, do you? Or perhaps know someone who did?

Ve, I've organized some but not many. [ he is surprisingly good with logistics. ]

Oh?

[This was good news indeed! Nepeta and her had come up dry so far on anything approaching any reasonable host experience.]

That is great! I mean, I barely know the first thing about such matters!

Si, si! I'll be happy to help~

This is great. I will be in touch in the next few days and we get get it all worked out.

[That is until a debilitating curse, and an evacuated underwater bubble distract her from the party. C'est la vie.]

Okay! I look forward to it!

[ damn bubble, always interrupting the plans. ]
