Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Heron
When: 11/2

[ Hello, fleet! Today you get a message from someone who's been more than a little absent the past month. Some people may be more aware of it than others, but he's finally crawling out of the woodwork.

Waking up has been more than a little disorienting, because he didn't recall falling asleep, or when. It makes him uneasy, a solid weight sitting in his gut. The last time he couldn't remember things, it wasn't so great for the fleet. ]

What year is it?

Not sure how long I was out..Is everyone okay?

What's your cousin like?

Amazing, actually. He's funny, and genuine, and charming, and sweet. Just the nicest guy you'll ever meet, if a little dorky.

Ah, so just like you, then.

Well— I mean— We have our differences, too!

Of course, though I'm going to maintain that you're the same until I meet him.

It would be pretty cool if he showed up here.

I mean, insofar as it's cool for anyone to show up here.

Yeah. As much as you don't want to see family here, it would still be nice to see them, right?

It really would. We could use his spirit here.

If he brightens things up anything like you, I'd say he's a welcome presence.

[ she laughs and waves her hand. you're too kind ]

You're just saying that.

Why would I say something I didn't mean?

To make me feel better?

What I said is true.

I guess I'll trust you this time.

It's a good habit to get into.

I'm probably a little too comfortable with it, to be honest.

It's the taste in desserts, isn't it? Kind of throws people off.

I mean, that is pretty surprising. I'm a truster, though. It just seems exhausting to question everything all of the time when most of the time people want to do the right thing.
