[GUESS WHO'S BACK. BACK AGAIN. And is on the network to say hello. If you guessed a fish troll, you would be correct.]

...huh. Didn't think I'd ever sea this plaice again. It feels like everything and nothing have changed at the same time. New room, new people, same glubbing oatmeal.

[She laughs.]

How long has it been, anemoneway? Last thing I remember was getting a box of tentacles in my mailbox and a bunch of weird shadow kids following people around.

Right, right. I'm Feferi Peixes.

[She waves at the camera.]

I was here for - glubbing shell, I don't remember. You start to get somefin like aquadementia - ocean madness - after spending too much time on a dead world. Things get fuzzy.

I'm guessing, though, based on this timer and what people are saying, that we don't have a whole lot of time left. Figures that I'd be coming back at the end. It seems to be a thing!

[She doesn't look upset; more amused than anything.]

So. What did I miss? I want to hear everyfin.

Comments

[sageprincess]

Right.

[She nods. Better safe than sorry when it comes to things like teleportation. Don't need people freaking out just outside Aria's headquarters. True to her word, Zelda disappears as she steps to the sapling's right, but Feferi will see her again upon following after, as well as the metallic scenery of the hidden floor.]

Welcome to our sanctuary. The administrators cannot hear or see us here.

[Quite a step up from their plotting in a bathroom about a year ago, eh?]

[cullscuttlefish]

[She nods, following Zelda onto the teleporter.

It takes her a minute to get her bearings - it might look like a lounge or something, but she's not quite used to having a retrieval unit be a thing that's okay. Feferi takes a couple of deep breaths, then comes up with her signature grin.]

This is really somefin. It's - I'm speechless.

[Definitely!]

It's huge, having a space like this.

[sageprincess]

It really is. [She agrees, and then adds as an afterthought:] And it certainly angered Jason to no end when the retrieval units he was supposed to be in control of in turn wrested control of the Tower from him.

[Feferi would enjoy that little tidbit, she thinks. She glances around the room momentarily, peering at the various chipped units milling about until she points to one in particular.]

Aria is the one with spectacles, over there.

[cullscuttlefish]

...now that is poetic justice if I've ever heard it.

[And she does enjoy it.]

She looks sweet. I like her already.

[sageprincess]

Quite.

[She'll leave that there, though, because talking too much about Jason and poetic justice gets her thinking about the labyrinth.]

She is very kind. You should teach her the song you wrote for us sometime. She chose her name because she enjoys music, so I am certain she would like it.
