Hahaha! Don't worry; I doubt the stay's for long, after all, but how could I pass up a vacation of my own after being in a swamp for ages?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

You've... been in a swamp?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

It's pretty bad, huh! Definitely no tropical resort, even if my little guys are as happy as pigs in mud. Literally speaking, even.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

So you were stuck there too...? How many places like this are there?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

It must be preying on your mind if you let a mental image like that slip by, huh? ... well, I guess I've heard of a couple others. It's hard to get any kind of certain idea, though, right?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ cute rappigs in mud cute rappigs in m--shakes her head ] This place never fails to surprise, even with all its nonsense...

Nonetheless, please stay with us as long as you like, your Majesty. Or... well, as long as the island will let you.

Then, of course! I couldn't turn down such a polite invitation from a beautiful young lady, after all, could I?

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

[ sdlkflsjgls ] W- we don't have much here, but...

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

Hahahah, relax! If anything it's nice to see a sun this clear, huh. You try going from Grand Chokmah to a swamp and see how you like it.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

I can't imagine... the transition here was odd enough to get used to.

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

At least I got to take heart that it meant no more meetings for a while.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Aside from the living conditions... I take it you've been enjoying your break?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

Definitely, definitely! The lack of government's suited me well, huh, even if things are going to get pretty interesting when I do finally get home.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

The same goes for me-- even if I'm not happy to be here, I'm glad I've gotten the valuable opportunity to grow stronger for when I go home.

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

Oh, I wouldn't exactly say 'stronger' in my case. But the daughter out of nowhere might rattle a few toupees in the council chamber.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

...

You're a father now?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

Hahahah! What's that face for! It wasn't like I planned it, after all! But if-- [sizing your age up] --in about, oh, three years time, I disappear for a week then reappear with a brand-new ten-year-old kid and a fiancee, consider yourself to have had really advance warning.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

...! C- congratulations. Who are they, if I may ask...?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

--well, bear in mind I've no clue if the names will mean anything to you. They're offworlders, you could say. The kid's Becky, the other's Meryl. I reckon they could probably give Natalia a run for her money for headstrong if they worked together, huh.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... True, I've never met anyone by those names, but congratulations nonetheless. I've met quite a few 'offworlders' who've been very... influential to me as well.

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

Of course, I've just got to explain it to everyone somehow. You should have seen Jade's face, though.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

... What was it like?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

His glasses got very opaque for a very long moment. That's the most I've seen him flustered in years.

[mystearious.livejournal.com]

Jade can look ... flustered?

[inpignation.livejournal.com]

Well! You've got to know what you're dealing with. It's hard to pick out flustered-and-opaque from angry-and-opaque.
