I know some people are probably gearing up to return back to their world and all and I just wanted to say that if anyone is hoping to put together a farewell party, Satyrs is open for catering and private partying as well. Just reach out to me if you have ideas.

I don't know what to do or say right now about everything I remember so can we just like.. get together at some point and watch something distracty and eat muffins until I figure out exactly what to say?

So, heads up, I got my memories too if anyone wants to hear another side of it too, like the wonderful world of WTF happened to Fillory later, I can provide totally objective information.

I've been a little preoccupied, but I got memories too. Just memories, far as I can tell. I can still travel anyway, and since that was apparently a thing, I guess just memories.

I think Julia kinda filled in on the happenings, but if you have extra questions, I might be able to fill in other blanks if you want.

And I said this on Alice's post, but I'm planning on staying around here.

I find it interesting that even with the current shift in our community, the Portal still has a way of surprising me all on its own.

FILTER TO ANAKIN SKYWALKER
I once asked if you wanted your saber returned to your possession. At the time, you suggested we meet, so we would no longer be considered strangers. And I've always been grateful to you for trusting me to maintain possession of what had once been yours and your son's. However, I believe it is time I relinquish it to someone else. I have a saber that is now truly my own.

If I were to offer it to you once again, would you claim it? Or do you have a desire for where perhaps it may be laid down for the time being? My friends have worked diligently with the Portal. They say they can send objects back through as well as persons. We could return it to our Galaxy? Or we could hold onto it for the next Generation?

But I think the decision should be made in part by yourself.

FILTER TO LEIA ORGANA-SOLO
I have something I wish to show you.

Would you like to join me for a wedding?

So, I know we are kind of in a bind with things being different and all, but I thought I'd put a fair warning out there for everyone who has gotten into the habits of shaking trees for money.

Sometimes, you don't get money. Sometimes, you get a full damn sofa fall on you. That's a thing now too!

Injuries and possible concussion are no longer an issue though, so I'll still be at the restaurant tomorrow morning. And considering moving the sectional sofa into the upcoming treehouse.

Some good news: the time for the full moon is now and I hadn't felt even the usual aggression following up so Ben, you were right. No wolfing out, which is great.

I guess after that, I'm wondering if the disease is at all transmittable during this time but I don't want to risk it but also, this whole place is reminding me of how I was a major idiot with Klaus and aaaactually never mind all this.

Other great news, looks like my stash that I had stuffed in my pockets didn't come with me when I woke up but they did in my luggage left in my room, so aaayyy. We good.

Mostly. I can't get into the kitchens to cook. The robots don't let us do that, but they'll allow us to take cooking lessons. COOKING LESSONS. As though I need those.

So. There's that.

So here's another round of questions for the Displaced Fam who have already gone up to space: What's the sitch with the moon? Any full moons? Are they Earth moons? AKA do the werewolves werewolf it out up there?

You know, I guess I'm mildly grateful for some entity out there sending us all notifications that we'll be eventually going but I had hoped there would be the option of discarding the brochures and going "No, thank you, I'm good". So many catering requests I really wish I didn't have to put off this month...

First of all, SPACE UNICORN?! I know but come on, I'm going to see a space unicorn!

Second, I'm not thrilled with the idea of leaving Stella behind. She's finally back to normal and I already left her once. I don't want to leave her behind again.

I thought about adding on a second bedroom for my flat, but I guess I'll hold off until after this cruise business.

FuckingNice to know the portal can still kick a person when they're down.

This will probably not be a surprise to anyone, but with the threat levels, the Pit will be closed for the time being. We'll make an announcement of its re-opening classes once things calm down.

I was going to talk about a new board game that came in last night, but not really important right now. Stella still isn't Stella, so you know, things continue to be shit.

Alright, well, I know there's never the perfect time to celebrate either Galentine's or Valentine's in this world because the portal likes to DO THINGS, but I had a notion of something last year that I figured I'd try again this year.

I'm making cupcakes, and extending it for the week, because let's be real: my days are powered by caffeine and red bull and special organic cupcakes that are NOT containing me anything else when it's not on Dreamless Draught (I have to take a break from it here and there). I call them my self-love cupcakes, and yes they are sprinkled with a little magic. Basically, if there's some part of you that you hate or just don't feel very confident on, the cupcakes help with changing your feelings on it for a day. Hate your hair? Well, you believe you're having a good day. Hate the shape of your eyebrows? Dang they actually look good when you look at yourself in the mirror today!

I'm sending them out on a discounted price than what my stuff usually is. Please know that the effect is completely temporary and only lasts for some hours and does not have any addictive properties and has kind of a strawberry aftertaste. If that's not your jam, that's totally fine.

OKAY! Attention fellow magicians and anyone who can make potions. I'm going to start stocking up stuff to maybe make several bottles of something that will keep you from not dreaming or can probably decrease the necessity of sleep so you just nap and you're totally fine.

Anyone want to help, that'll be great because I have all the time in the world since I'm not exactly sleeping much myself, but you know. I wanna change that and all.

Alright, comrades. I have been jotting stuff down and so I think I can make an official announcement and say that I am going to move out of the Cottage!

... but not very far. In fact, into the backyard. I'm building myself a treehouse. For those who don't know, the naturalists back in Brakebills had one for the students. It was pretty damn sweet. I want to kind of replicate that here except make it Josh-esque. Because if I don't really want to sit around and wait for the portal to deliver a treehouse like it did with Whitespire (which is pretty freaking sweet though).

So what do I need from you? Ummm, mostly just words of encouragement. Those are always nice. If anyone wants to help with the plotting and the magicking a few sturdy trees together, that would be cool too. Furniture shopping can come later, but I'm trying not to go too purchase-crazy right off the bat.

Going PInterest-crazy, however, has already happened.

Two weeks late, but I just wanted to thank everyone again for coming to the grand opening of Satyrs. For any future events, Satyrs will be private parties or even catering. We're open everyday for a meal starting at 10AM, then a break mid afternoon (3PM to 5PM), between lunch and dinner, and then we'll be open till midnight on Thursdays to Saturday, and till 11PM on Sundays to Wednesdays.

And you know what? I just realized the awkwardness of naming the restaurant Satyrs and having it open in the month of January because it was around this time last month that I remember actually BEING a satyr on another island. Haha, I told myself I would never think about that time again and yet. YET.

I swear to god there is no magic like that on the restaurant.

Weird question but you wouldn't happen to have veritaserum lying around, would you? Or a method that you all use to reverse engineer a truth-spitting potion?

IT'S DONE, YOU GUYS!

Before I tossed out the invites around Tumbleweed, I wanted to let you know first. I got the date for the opening of Satyrs and it's going to be on New Year's Eve! That's right, we're watching the ball drop too!

Thought I'd let you guys know way ahead of times before most of you end up making plans.

I'm gonna go ahead and say thanks right now, for putting up with my anxiety and self-doubt over this whole thing and for helping with everything, yes, even the taste-testing which was basically free food for you guys. Seriously, though, I appreciate all the help!

Never thought I would have to protect the plants against snow at any given time of the year here and yet HERE WE ARE, snow event number.. 2??

So the restaurant wasn't close to being done earlier and then it ended up in shambles after the attack. That's what I get for not realizing I probably should have foreseen a monster attack and warded it up.

But it's in the process of getting fixed up, and should hopefully be able to be opened up within the next two months? I'm spending the day working a few things off the menu so if anyone's looking to be taste-testers or just a general distraction, I'm located at [address].
