[ It has been a while, a long while, since Margaery Tyrell showed her face on the network. Today, however, it seems as if she is in the mood for it; or perhaps, as if she has been planning this little message for a few days now. ]
I do not know if it merits a little celebration or not. Likely, the ones who brought me here will have their own thoughts of the matter.
[ but she smiles, willing to brush aside these thoughts in favor of others. ]
While it may not have been my choice to come here a year ago, it might yet be my choice how to address the entire matter.
[ it's been a year. had she thought she would leave before now, yes? had she hoped to win the game already? of course. had she learned some humility? indeed. ]
The planet is quite lovely is it not? and I have heard of a nearby river. I wonder if a little outing is appropriate of a celebration. It has been a year and I have not seen clear water in months and months.
[ look at her, speaking of months instead of moon cycles. One might think she's turning modern. ]
A picnic by the river - to celebrate my stay here and the friendship that we have all formed. Surely, after the last few weeks we all need a little comfort and joy. I shall be leaving this afternoon, if anyone else cares to join me.

[ he smiles, before launching into an explanation accompanied by hand demonstrations. ]
It does, yeah. They're waves of electromagnetic radiation. Basically, okay - think of the microwave oven as space. The food is the planet, and there's this thing called a magnetron, that's basically our sun. The rotating dish inside is the axis that rotates planet Food so all sides get equal exposure to the sun's rays - in this case microwaves. Waves that hit the reflective surface that coats the inside of the oven bounce off it, so they're not harming the device, but when they hit the food, they go through it, making it vibrate faster, and those vibrations heat up the food.
[ that's totally what she was asking for right? ]
video;
[ and hold on, she'll have to actually listen very carefully if she is to understand the metaphor. ]
I've never seen any waves inside of it.
[ what is she doing wrong. ]
video;
[ he nods ]
We can actually only see very little of the radiation around us.

[ her smile is small and impish. ]
I would blame anyone else for fabricating this little tale to me. Only I know that if you say so, it ought to be true. Are there many such invisible forces around us?
video;
Most forces in the world are invisible - we deduce their existence from their influence. Like - [ he sets the camera down so it films his feet, jumps, and once he's back on terra firma, holds the camera back to his face. ]
I don't see anything holding me down, but the fact I don't drift off into space tells me there's gravity. That being said - just because our eyes can't detect something, doesn't mean that some cool tech can't help us see it. It would just take a little work. [ he means a lot, don't believe him. ]
