[BROADCAST]
Hey, Fleet. First, some business to address.

I've kind of fallen down on the job maintaining Discovery One. It's a lecture hall on the Iskaulit. It needs lectures. So, if you've done them before you're welcome to do more. If it's new to you then the subject is pretty open. Talk about some field of study you know something about or a hobby or about your world. I'll get a schedule arranged and help you come up with supplies if you need them. Some of us enjoy learning so don't be shy. And if there is some kind of lecture you want to hear let me know and I'll see what I can do.

Speaking of teaching, I also run the Dance Studio also on the Iskaulit. I've mentioned this before but with our turn over it bears repeating. I'll be teaching classes. Probably some ballroom and modern stuff since that seemed to be what people were interested, but I'm in it for the ballet at heart so if anyone wants in on that let me know. It's good exercise. You can also just use the room to practice or host dances if you want. Just clean up and keep it to open dance times. There's a schedule on the door.

Okay, business over. Everyone go back to your casual wear. No more top hats and ties or whatever business people wear.

I have a personal question just between you, me, anyone listening if you don't make it private, any of the snooping comms officers (Crowley) if you do make it private, the Atroma, and their audience. Who else has powers and what's that like for you back home? [She probably already knows a lot of the powered folks, but maybe not the impact that has on them in their world.

Should she mention it's her birthday in a couple of weeks? Nah.]

[ACTION: ISKAULIT]
[You can find her in Discovery One going through some notes or at the dance studio practicing some basic ballet forms or attend a class! She also works at Malum as a bartender so she might just be the girl saying, "What are you drinking?" when you walk in. She could also be taking Seeker, her direwolf pup, for a walk through the halls, getting a new book or ten at the library, or working out in the gym. She's kind of there a lot.]

[Or find her on the Twin Roses.]

(OOC: Want a more specific prompt or to plot something first? Contact me.)

Sponsor Drop!

[kill_switch]

[An unexpected video feed opens on Furiosa enjoying a quiet meal. Once she's aware of the malfunctioning device streaming her meat and potatoes, she turns it off. The black screen lasts a couple moments, before flipping on again. Furiosa huffs as she turns it off again. It almost immediately flips back on.

She looks at it for a long moment, and then lets out a defeated sigh and finishes her mouthful.]

Fine. Fine. [She turns the view slightly and there's a big metal box on the table . Sponsor Drop!] I guess this is what you want to see.

[She's talking more to the device itself and Atroma, but looks like you're part of the audience now. She pops the top and pulls out a note.]

Furiosa,

Congratulations on your third anniversary! I hope you enjoy the contents, I made them all by myself from natural ... uh, no I'm not saying that word outloud. Those letters don't go well together. Here's to many more years, you're my favorite!

Signed,

Daxa, age 105

p.s. sorry about your friend, okay I don't need to read the rest of that.

[She sets the letter aside. She's not excited about sponsor drops (not since she got a giant useless box of makeup and hair gels a while back), but the note was a nice touch.

She's not expecting much, but as she looks into the box there's a shift to subtle surprise on her face. She pulls out a sweater; something noticeably hand-made with skill and love. It also has an extra sleeve, apparently someone was confused about human anatomy, and the yarn looks more scratchy than cozy, but she seems pleased by it. Rooting through the box, there's a few more flashes of color and fiber.][Furiosa pulls on one of the sweaters, which as much work went into it is ill-fitting and lumpy, and looks at the feed.]


Happy anniversary to me, I guess.
