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.

FILTER TO MARGO HANSON

Would you like to join me for a wedding?

FILTER TO 21+

Greetings, neighbors. I apologize for the extremely late announcement but should anyone wish to partake in kinship this evening, with specialty cocktails and barbecue, please come over to the Cottage. The small town atmosphere has sparked my imagination as far as cocktails go and I'd like to share them with you.

And what better night to have an impromptu party than a Sunday in the middle of May? May is practically made for endless parties.

FILTER TO FEN AND BEN

No need to worry. I've gone ahead and warded off the access to my bedroom and it appears as though the sound charms are still in tact. No disturbance for the little girl.

Now, please, do either of you happen to know where my pipe has gone or is this a question I need to direct at Bambi?

Any citizens found to be sheltering these agents will be equally culpable under Imperial action directive 121X-421c.

Are these little blonde man totems cursed?

These novelty candies leave much to be desired.

FILTER TO AZIRAPHALE

Is the invitation for Delores and I to come visit your shop still open? We've been catching up about the past two months and I made passing mention of how you have an original pressing of Villette and she seemed positively delighted.

FILTER TO STEVE ROGERS (MCU), LEIA ORGANA AND AZIRAPHALE

Would the three of you be interested in a potential standing lunch arrangement? I'm aware you may not know one another as of yet but I think, perhaps, we'd four enjoy one another's company. Perhaps on a biweekly or monthly basis?

FILTER TO VIOLET PARR

I do hope you are settling in alright.

FILTER TO JANE FOSTER

I will miss Lorna, as I am sure you will too, but I hope it goes without saying but I am still dedicated to our research.

The nice thing about Hanna being born in space is that she does seem very at home with the stars on her nursery ceiling.

[Steve Harrington]

We should talk now that we're back if you've a moment.

Don't worry it's not bad, I realize as I say that, it might sound it.

[El & Fen]

I was thinking I want to go up in the ship and just fly for a bit. Probably be gone for an hour or so, if there's a better time to go, I'll go then.

[filtered to Padmé Amidala, Leia Organa, and Louie Duck]

It took some time, but I finally have this hallikset tuned to my liking and found a space on the ship with acceptable acoustics. Would you like to hear?

[OOC: Backdated to... sometime post-Naboo *handwave*]

It was strange being on sort-of-Naboo again.

But my great-granddaughter being born there is a good strange.

[Ahsoka Tano]

I've been meaning to talk to you about something. [...] My lightsabers. Can we talk?

[Chelli Aphra]

Do you want to talk about it, or do you want me to pretend I didn't notice?

I hear some of you had more fun than others a few evenings ago.

WHO: Everyone.
WHEN: Um, it was supposed to be last night, so let's say tonight.
WHERE: Callisto Deck, Starlight Park
WHAT: Living up to its name, Starlight Park hosts the Festival of Recreation. Leisure. Dancing. And... other things.
TRIGGERS: There will be a section for the

( Oh THAT kind of LEISURE and RECREATION. )

FILTER TO THE CAST AND CREW OF MAMMA MIA, PLUS EPS ADMINISTRATON

Beginning on Monday, the 23rd, we will be temporarily suspending rehearsal of the production for a little over a weeks time. This is so everyone can fully enjoy our time in this Port without feeling any obligations. Rehearsals are to resume on April 1st.

When rehearsals start back up, I will be unable to join you all. I believe the majority of you are aware, but my wife is expecting at the end of the month, so my hope is that by the 1st, we will have been able to make an announcement regarding a hop happy arrival. I have already put plans into place so when we return to rehearsals our stage manager for the production, Pixie, will be leading rehearsals until my return. With our class system being online this year, I intend to be back to work with classes and the production on April 13th.

Please let me know if you have any questions and I hope everyone enjoys their time on Naboo.

FILTER TO MARGO HANSON

Bambi, we need to go shopping. Stat.

FILTER TO ANAKIN SKYWALKER

If I remember correctly, Naboo is fairly well known for it's focus on the arts. Would you be interested in trying to find a show? Preferably sooner rather than later, of course, given everything. But I'm assured we have time and can partake a little while we wait.

FILTER TO WAUGHLO'S, HAN SOLO AND LEIA ORGANA

Do we want to do anything together? I'm hoping to go out with Margo and Anakin early on, and I know we won't have a lot in the way of time with how close we are, but I think we can possibly manage a dinner if we prepare now?

[Filter to Padme and Leia]

Ok, so, we're going to dock at Naboo soon and I was wondering if maybe you could help me out with some things. If you want. And are ok with helping tourguide or shop guide. That sort of thing. If you've got plans the whole time, I can manage myself, but I'd probably do better with people who have a bit more of an idea of what things are actually supposed to be priced and then just if there's stuff that I really shouldn't buy. So, uh, yeah, if you have time.

[Filter to Tahiri, Will, Leo, Rey, and Richie]

Hey, I got a favor to ask. It doesn't have to be everyone, but there's that the more the merrier, right? Um, anyways, could you help in keeping Anakin distracted for a bit when we're on Naboo? Mainly in some way so he doesn't think it's weird I'm not hanging around.

I just arrive, and I find myself out in space again.

PADME AMIDALA (& SABE):

How are you handling the idea of returning to Naboo?

If this is the afterlife I've some more questions than I started with.

Who's still here?

WHO: Leia Organa, Ben Solo
WHEN: Today!
WHERE: The Bureau
WHAT: Ben picks up his mom and shares news, they discuss things from their world.
TRIGGERS: 1. Spoilers for Rise of Skywalker. 2. Talk of character death in canon.

( ''Why in the worlds didn't you start with that!'' )

FILTER TO HAN SOLO AND LEIA ORGANA

I just wanted to check and see if you two were alright. Did the enchantment get you?

FILTER TO MARGO HANSON

All good?

FILTER TO BEN SOLO

Were you and your family alright?

Thankfully, I seem to be formed once more. I'll be pleased to get back to work now. It's hard to tell if the worms are excited or disappointed.

IANTO JONES:

Printers over here have quit working. I'm not sure who needs to do what, but I am not a tech.

MICHAEL:

You're sliding backwards.

If anyone else is having difficulty getting around due to reduced size, I have figured out how to magic a RC car to move without the remote. I'll gladly do so for you if you need. You just need to provide the car and have someone bring it to me.

And on that note, Rogue, my hamburger car is Anka Irene's when this is all over should she want it.

FILTER TO FEN

How are they?

THE PHYSICAL COTTAGE:

It seems you've all been affected because you helped us who were taken. What can I do to help you all?

Quentin, you have my sincerest gratitude. I'll need to see you once this is over.

GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY:

I suppose a roll call is in order.

My advice is the same advice I give most people in times of warning: don't go anywhere alone.

REY:

Which leads me to my question. Would you mind terribly if I asked you to stay with me for a while? At least until this faerie stuff blows over?

KYLO REN:

Be safe.

LUKE SKYWALKER:

I'm going to need you to stop being a hermit.

FRAY:

We got off on the wrong foot, and I'd like to start over.

Hello, I'm Leia. How are you?

ELIOT WAUGH (1):

Thank you so much for this past weekend. I had a wonderful time getting to know you.

I'll be heading down to the island Friday afternoon. If'n anyone wants a place to go to try and stay outta this mess you're more'n welcome to come and stay in one of the other houses.

If ya'd like to just go keeping your kids there to help deal with this mess that is supposedly happening, that's fine too. We'll make sure they're taken care of.

I was just thinking about receiving gifts or whatever you want to call them from the portal or from whoever has control here. Well, in a very odd coincidence, I was delivered a handwritten letter sent to me from - myself. Did anyone else receive anything similar recently?

It's a shame we can't ask demands of the portal. I could use some spiced caf right about now. This damn headache won't go away.

BEN SOLO:

Have you set a date yet?

PADME AMIDALA:

My son is getting married. If there was ever something that made me feel old...

ANAKIN SKYWALKER:

What do you think about this marriage?

FILTER TO LEIA ORGANA

How do you feel about the 8th for New York? I can get us tickets for Hamilton right now if that works for you. The 15th also seems doable on the ticket front.

FILTER TO THE WAUGH-REN FAMILY

Thank you for the plants, Fray. I like mine immensely. What does yours look like?

FILTER TO QUENTIN COLDWATER

When do you think you'll have a spare few hours?

FILTER BETWEEN THE ELIOT WAUGH'S

When you were in the hotel, you got memory updates, didn't you?

* If you think they are friends, probably are!

GUESS WHO HAS TEN FINGERS AND HIS HAWAII BODY BACK?

This Guy.

WHO: Leia Organa (Canon), Rey (CL)
WHEN: After this, at the end of July.
WHERE: Leia's apartment.
WHAT: Rey comes over to visit with Leia after they begin to talk about the memory update.
TRIGGERS: Talk of the events of The Last Jedi which will likely include emotional manipulation, fighting Snoke's guards, and more.

( You managed to survive all of them. The Force truly is with you. )

WHO: Anakin Skywalker, Leia Organa (canon)
WHEN: Several weeks ago
WHERE: JJ's or lunch.
WHAT: Anakin and Leia agree to have lunch together, but it's kind of hard when your father was a homicidal maniac who tried to kill you a bunch of times.
TRIGGERS: Talk of Jedi Temple slaughter, Padmé's death, and you know, general Star Wars deaths.

( What do you get when you toss Darth Vader and Princess Leia together in a restaurant? Awkwardness. That's what you get. )

FRAY:

Where'd you get the number?

ELIOT WAUGH, KYLO REN + FEN:

I need a favor.

[General Leia Organa]

Please tell me this is just a poorly thought out joke.

[Friends + Family]

Who else has been affected by the latest portal shenanigans?

MICHAEL!

This isn't giant cat overlords in bowties.

VIDEO MESSAGE

The video starts with a shake of the camera, like the phone was fumbled, but the image is too close and everything is out of focus. After a couple seconds, the phone is dropped and facing up at a ceiling. In the background, nearby, there is loud barking taking place. Another moment later, an animated but familiar shape of a common toy steps into frame sporting Rey's formerly signature hairstyle. She's lacking a mouth but her eyebrows are drawn down in a frustrated look. Eyes focus in on the camera and she starts vocalizing but no words come out. At best, it sounds like frustrated grunts and groans coming from the back of her throat. Eyes narrow further and she lifts both her arms in a 'WHAT' gesture. There's very visible frustration that continues on as she moves in and out of frame, with a dog briefly rushing past view, before suddenly the camera shows a stylus begin to float in midair. It comes down close near the camera and suddenly the picture ends, as she has shut the camera off. Within thirty seconds, the following message shows on network.

[Filter: Leia Organa (Canon)]

Finn might have mentioned this already, but I wanted you to know I remember everything.

And I wanted to say also, though I know it doesn't mean much of anything. I'm really sorry. I kinda made a mess of things.

Just so you are aware, I calculate a 42.7% chance of the portal sending giant cat overlords in bow ties on August 14th. For your safety, please do not fight them. Placate them with catnip and pretend to worship them until the portal self-corrects and sends them away.


[General Organa]

Have you ever been to Hawaii?

I guess sailing's okay. It was different to see how it works when it's not a magic boat.

[Ronan Lynch]

I have a mission for you. Sort of. More like a request. I could probably do it on my own and you're not exactly the person I should probably choose if I don't want it to come back to me, but I won't get in trouble for this and the old man won't know it's because of me.

Added in later

[Kylo's Mom Leia Organa]

Hello. I need your assistance with something if you don't mind.

No.

[Filter: Skywalkers & Solos (both timelines) & Eliot Waugh]

Eliot and I wanted to tell you that we're engaged. Eliot proposed, I accepted.

We're just telling family and close friends right now, and Eliot still needs to speak to some of his friends, so I would appreciate you keeping it quiet until we make a public announcement, but I wanted you all to hear it from me first.

Who: Luke Skywalker, Anakin Skywalker & Leia Organa (Canon)
What: Luke Skywalker arrives on a quiet Sunday afternoon.
When: Sunday, July 29th
Where: Fort Neil Resettlement Bureau
Warnings: TBD
Status: TBC in the comments.

( No presence would be felt. )

KYLO REN:

You felt it, didn't you?

GALAXY FAR FAR AWAY MINUS KYLO REN:

I'm sorry to announce that Han Solo has disappeared.

So it seems people are pretty eager to talk about spy games here. But maybe the more interesting question is, who of you guys do you think would win in a fight?

FILTER TO LEIA ORGANA

Can we talk about home?

[FRIENDS, FAMILY, CURRENT & FORMER X-MANSION PEOPLE]

I don't know how anyone will feel about this, but I'm letting you know that I'm moving out of the mansion. With Artoo, of course. We've moved in with Aphra at her place.

Artoo and I want to thank everyone we lived with for their hospitality— or in Sabine's case, for keeping it interesting.

So how does one go about judging an alien beauty pageant?

Because I may have finally found a job worth doing.

This week we are selling The Hoth. An iced white mocha, that is neither as cold as Hoth, nor as white as it, but I don't come up with these names. I think they're inspired by the place across the street.

[Filter: Eliot & Fen]

I hate this weather. There has to be somewhere on this planet that's cooler.

I kinda got so much sun in Italy, and it was completely fantastic. I'd definitely go back, and thank you Santa for Italy trips.

[Galaxy Far, Far, Away (all canons)]

I brought back souvenirs for everyone. Trinkets, kinda, cause they get cranky if you put too much in your luggage. What I wouldn't have given for the Falcon not gonna lie.

[Nico]

Call me spoiled, but I want like, date night. And Ice cream even if it won't measure up to gelato. Let's do something tonight.

I found Star Wars here. We had it on a betamax. Mike had the round spaceship. A falcon?

I was told to look at NASA's insta-graham for real stars.

It's scary in space.

I think I'd like to stop this game now.

Some really old guy with white hair just dropped off like a bunch of cookies off at the house.
