Hey everyone! It's that time of year. A few people have contacted me already, but for the newer folks, Dash's Delivery Service is here for your Valentine's Day needs.

If you don't have Valentine's Day in your world, it's what all the pink and red hearts and giant teddy bears in the stores are about - a day celebrating romance and love and so on. Don't knock the giant teddy bears, by the way. Some people love them. On February 14th, I (or one of my associates) will be carrying your cards and flowers and anything else to your girlfriend or boyfriend or wife or husband or secret (for those of you who can actually keep a secret) crush's home or work for a modest delivery fee. The exceptions are: I don't sing and I reserve the right to mock you if you send your significant other nothing but those chalky conversation hearts. Our schedule fills up fast, so get in touch soon!

Are you still in this year?

OOC: There will be an actual, entirely-for-fun gifts post closer to Valentine's Day, if anyone wants to take Dash up on his offer.

(backdated to... say the 24th or 25th)

Despite any exaggerated claims to the contrary, I'm fine.

At least I'll probably have a cool scar.

In my defense, it's not my fault asteroids are wonky. When I was abducted by aliens in Atlantis, at least they had normal gravity.

Thanks, Bellamy, Jaina.

So how about them Yankees? Actually, neither of you would get that and I'm pretty sure the Yankees don't exist anymore.

I'd like to have a meeting this afternoon to meet our newer people, and catch up on our current projects.

For those that don't know me. I'm Neria Surana, Head of the Magic Department. We have a number of projects on going, some of which affect some of us personally.

I know not all of you work in my department. But, this meeting will give you an opportunity to know what we are doing, and whether you'd like to be involved in helping out. We have so many different types of magic here, it is always useful to have other people's perspectives.

Looks like we've been getting a lot of new arrivals lately.

The beautiful and talented Jaina has built a bunch of Speeders, basically hover bikes for you who don't know what they are. And, every couple of months we race them.

So, this weekend is your chance to practice and get used to the controls before the actual races next week.

We'll be out in fields most of Saturday and Sunday. So, feel free to drop by any time.

Nothing like a little murder to make me feel right at home. it wasn’t

Is crime so rare here that a pair of dead bodies is really international news, or is there more to this that I’m just not getting?

Everyone should be enjoying the new year this much!

Okay, I have been incredibly patient. I want gossip!

I apologise for not properly introducing myself before, and for my sullen demeanor last night. I'm afraid I did not quite feel like celebrating, just yet.

My name is Ignis Scientia, of Lucis. I am from the world of Eos, which you may have heard of from Aranea.

Alright, losers, I'm booking us some space at Belleayre for the weekend of the 11th, but I'm going to need a headcount of who's interested in going so I can work things out with transport and know how many rooms to get us. If you weren't paying attention before, Belleayre is a sky resort, so obviously the main thing we'll be doing is skiing, but there will be chances for other kinds of fun and you can definitely, like, chill in front of the fire with some hot chocolate if that's more your thing.

Anyway, who's in? Let me know by Monday so I can get the reservation made and shit.

This time of year is always a little rough on me. Reminds me of all I've lost.
