Who: Sora Niniji
Broadcast: Video
Action: Planet, deep forest
When: Today in the afternoon!

[When the video turns on, at first it looks like a black screen. Like the video is broken. But the camera turns and if you look closely enough, you can see a dim light source coming from the background, that looks like a glowing blue lion cub if you squint. The light from that also gives a faint outline to someone with spikey hair.]

Uh....hey guys! How're ya doing?

I dunno how many have explored the forests yet, but thought you should know that if you get far enough? It gets pretty dark.

Really dark.

I mean, really, really dark.

[he is so lost right now]

So...wanted to let you know! Bring a flashlight probably! That's all! Bye!

Who: Harvey Specter and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide, video
Action: Marsiva
When: Now!

[Video]

[Harvey turns on the camera and fixes his jacket.] So... when do I get off this ship? Seriously, though. I have to stay on here while the rest of you get to frolick?

[He scoffs.] What do you recommend, to entertain oneself on this hunk of metal?

And don't tell me 'I spy' or I'll spy with my little eye a great big pile of bullshit.

[Action]

[Harvey's just pacing back and forth, back and forth. Maybe he needs a distraction, or a conversation, or... you can just tell him to stop being annoying.]

Happy Birthday!

[Wherever you are, passenger, whether on the surface of the planet, the way-station, or safe in your ship, all network terminals and personal communicators crackle to life. The Hosts have come calling, but there are a few differences, this time. Splashed across every screen in the Fleet, an eye-catching new image demands the attention of the passengers. And instead of the usual space-age jingle, your hosts see fit to interrupt the day with the sound of a much older song...

For the old-timers and archive-readers out there, this song has been heard once before. Much like last time, the familiar voice of Beau can be heard crooning pleasantly along in the background.

Unlike that other recording, however, Diamond's voice sparkles to the foreground before much time can pass. It would seem that the Drift Fleet's hosts are a little more on-top of things, this year.]

Hello, my darling passengers! We are here to wish you all an absolutely wonderful birthday. Sure, it's technically an anniversary, but we much prefer the idea of a birthday. It sounds better and the parties are so much more fun! You could even think of it as celebrating the beginning of a new life--two magnificent years spent under the stars...

[She sighs happily, and Beau pauses in his singing to chuckle fondly in her direction.]

And so, we have a very special present for all of you! We've been working very hard to make it a reality; it has taken quite a bit of time and effort... but we think that each and every one of you deserves it. I hope you all know how much you mean to us and to your adoring audience.

If you will look to the Marsiva, you'll notice that a special new hangar bay is open, waiting for you to arrive! That's right--we've opened up a special party room for all of you to go celebrate. We've provided games, food, and plenty of prizes. It has been hard to keep the secret quiet, but... oh, the looks on your faces when you see it will make it all worth it!

So, let's party! Relax, enjoy, and spend time with your friends... Your fans would be disappointed not to see all of their favorites there! The audience has been looking forward to this--so I'm sure it will be quite the ratings boost for everyone attending.

[Another pleased sigh, and she claps her hands!]

...But why wait? Let's start celebrating now! To kick off this special time of year, we have two questions from the audience: what would everyone like for their Drift Fleet birthdays, and if you could pick one vacation destination in all of the worlds, what would it be? Respond to this frequency with your answers, and who knows... wishes might just come true!

I am honored to have spent a second year with you wonderful people, and I can't wait to see what the next one has in store.

Enjoy your party, dear passengers! And, as always... the worlds are watching!

[The song finally comes to an end and the line remains open, presumably waiting for responses from the Fleet at large. And for those who head to the Marsiva to check it out, it turns out that Diamond's promises are true this time.

Happy second birthday, Drift Fleet!]
