Hello, Zuko he. I've done most of the prep work so my first announcement is that next month I plan to re-open my Uncle's tea shop - but since there's already several good tea shops out there and I'm not great at making t, this place is going in a different direction.

It's being rebranded as an ice cream and boba shop. I haven't settled on a name yet. And I need to hire people who know ice cream and boba to help out, if anyone's looking for work. The building work has been largely completed, so the hard part is over. Who knew cooling systems cost so much?

But anyway. Uh. That's it. Thanks.

I'm so sorry. I know we aren't particularly close, but would you mind if I brought you dinner tonight?

I'm not going to make light of this beautiful weather, this wonderous season of long, languid days and blooming flowers! I'd like everyone who has an inclination to help me - what is your favorite spring tradition? Anything possible here, please! Favorite foods, favorite hobbies, anything to celebrate the return of our glorious light in the sky!

Back home, I used to add fresh mint to my Estus flasks, and practice swordfighting in the glow of a sunrise the eastern-most balconies of Anor Londo! After things got... worse... I had to appreciate chilly spring days in the hills below the Undead Parish, but at least the bluebells and daisies still bloomed.

But I'm terribly out of practice - outside of basking (I've got that one covered), what is your favorite thing to do in these gorgeous days?

First Shitty, then Nursey, now Dex. Did Haus get cursed and we did not realize? I am not joking, that seems like it could be real thing here.

Hey! You said you missed the food from back home, yeah? There's a great restaurant in the city, Ozero, that has pelmeni and pickles that will take you right back to your granny's kitchen. It's run by a bunch of rusalky, but they're cool. (According to Miss Anja, rusalky are just victims of bad PR. Don't get her started on The Church unless you want to hear a whole epic rant.)

fucking stupid thing I am certain Nandor has already contracted 10 different curses on this electronic device and WHERE WILL WE GET THE EMAILS FROM

HELLO yes, I am called Nadja! I am a HUMAN WOMAN of a certain HUMAN age who has experienced HUMAN WOMAN things like Sex and the City (should be called Not Enough Sex Too Much City am I right?), talking to BOSS BABE HUNS (tic and tac and taco symbol livingmywhy), and dealing with societal pressures of being the perfect wife, mother, sister, daughter, and friend all in one while working on the hustle and grind (misleading) but not too much working so that the cookies can be baking for a bake sale tomorrow all while earning 82 cents to the dollar!

I have been pretending so well to be a human and it is EXHAUSTING why would anyone be this???????????

HELLO yes, I am looking for my FELLOW HUMANS Laszlo (perhaps you know him as Jackie Daytona, a bartender from Pennsylvania) and Nandor The Relentless.





Also yes alright or our familiar bodyguard Gizmo Buillermo. OH AND THE DOCUMENTARY CREW please tell me they have made it!!!!

I decided I would read some nonfiction, do some learning, you know? But because this is Vallo, I am not sure if this book is put on wrong shelf in library, or if books just fall in from very weird worlds sometimes.

Title: The Mad Scientific Method
Author: Franz Beetle, Tyrant of Beetleburg
Publisher: Paris Institute of the Extraordinary Press

The chapters are:
1. Introduction
2. Experience a Spark of Genius
3. Demand Answers from the Universe
4. Maniacal Cackling
5. Violate Laws of God and Man
6. Escape Angry Mob
7. Show Them! Show Them All!
8. Bibliography

I guess "Show them All!" is one way to say "share results with scientific community," but I'm not sure it is good way to do that.

So what do we think? Misplaced humor, or somewhere there is world where mad science is standardized and we got their book?

You know, I'm usually like - totally fine with The Patented Vallo Surprise™? And I grew up in the era of VCRs and video tapes, so, when I found a tape on the front seat of my car this morning and it had Ras's name on it, I wasn't at all suspicious (maybe a little) but I also didn't think I found Ras's snuff film collection so it'd be fine? We'd just find a VCR and watch the tape? Turns out, she had the matching VCR.

Did you guys know that the odds of giving birth to sextuplets spontaneously are one in 4.7 billion? Well, this movie had that ONE out of 4.7 billion. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Also, Prigany gets a lot of questions about love during this time of year - they have a whole list to help you focus if you're curious, whether you're single or in a relationship or shackled to your respective ball or chain. I can also do a drawing for you to answer your burning question, as long as you're not creeped out by my white-eyed fugue state during Vision Quests.

Today I learned that when you walk around with no shoes, that is barefoot, not bear-foot. (Thank you, Solnyshko!)

I thought it made sense. Bears don't wear shoes, so you are walking like bear. Bear-foot. Barefoot also makes sense, but is not as cute.

I talked to Catra. If you can come to Darla, we'll do it there, and she'll stay with me. She said not this weekend, so maybe the next one?

Thanks for the birthday wishes, everyone! Hope you all had a good yesterday! 😊

Hello everyone, it is I, Solaire! I try to find enjoyment in most things, because there is never any situation so bad that it cannot be made worse by whining about it, but please allow me to whine about it for a brief moment because I am, to use modern terminology, losing my shit: these short days! I hate them! I hate them so, so much! Who invented them? Why?? I know we've rounded the corner and the days are getting longer again, but it's taking SOOOOO LONG. I miss my sun! I miss its radiant light! These long nights make me very sad and trigger my depression and make me praise the sun out of desperation, not love!

I hate winter. :( That is all. Please forgive my rant. It's very difficult to love the sun when it's so often absent!

Does anyone here have experience with helping creatures to fly? Dragons, specifically, is my interest, but that is probably a rare skill set.

I have witnessed several crash landings today, including into a tree and a river.

I am thinking of this poem by Pushkin today, because it is one that reminds me of Shitty.

Что смолкнул веселия глас?
Раздайтесь, вакхальны припевы!
Да здравствуют нежные девы
И юные жены, любившие нас!
Полнее стакан наливайте!
На звонкое дно
В густое вино
Заветные кольца бросайте!
Подымем стаканы, содвинем их разом!
Да здравствуют музы, да здравствует разум!
Ты, солнце святое, гори!
Как эта лампада бледнеет
Пред ясным восходом зари,
Так ложная мудрость мерцает и тлеет
Пред солнцем бессмертным ума.
Да здравствует солнце, да скроется тьма!

I am not finding translation I like very much yet, but if I find something good I will show in English. It is called "Bacchic Song" if you are wanting to look for yourself. It reminds me of Shitty because it is poem written in very bad times with lots of hope for good times to come, and lots of drinking about it. I know our friend is well at home, but still I will miss him wandering into kitchen with no pants on to ask if we are down to motherfucking clown.

New years resolutions... Do you make them? Do you not? Do you keep them or forget about them a few months into the year?

I don't generally make them. Also, taking suggestions for movies to watch during late night insomnia bouts.

Look, don't judge me. I'm doing my job.

Because my boss can't rub two brain cells together I've been put in charge of the holiday adoption - again. We're doing the 'Pawliday Wishes' these fucking PUNS all day today at the mall and throughout the month to get furballs out of the shelter. Show up and adopt something. Gonna just walk through and window shop on strays and talk about how cute they are and go home without them? Shame on you, you're dead to me and your Christmas spirit is fake.

We won't say no to volunteers but remember that you're not getting paid, though the cuddles you get in exchange (not from me, don't touch me just because I have cute ears) are worth it.

And for people who already have pets - yes, there is a Santa that your dog/cat/goat/goblin can take pictures with. Here's a sample. They make good holiday cards or whatever. Proceeds go to the shelter.

Questions? Complaints? Concerns? Too bad. I don't care. :)

Has anyone else come across a really aggressive unicorn today? I guess maybe I got too used to Swift Wind because I tried to go up and pet it, and it literally tried to stab me with its horn.

Opening some deliveries that I forgot about because I had shoved them under my bed when the future child thing happened and...poll time:

Corsets - an appropriate gift from law clients or no? It's very nice, but an unusual pick. A nice cab sauv would have been fine too.

Lawbaby interns - you get next week off for various holidays happening. Come back the following Monday ready to work because we're going to be dealing with the laws and boundaries concerning the metaphysical planes of existence and what happens when you kill someone on another plane. (Hint: lots of paperwork for us aka you.)

I'm on vacation for ten days starting today to make up for last month. Don't break any magical laws in the meanwhile, thank you.

[ FILTERED TO THURVISHAR D'LORUS & HENRY MILLS ]
I'll be renting a cabin in the woods for some of this vacation. Would either of you like to join me? It's going to involve a lot of reading by the fireplace, gathering magical ingredients, and hiking.

NEW LANGUAGE RULE:

If your language has articles, you are not allowed to complain about nouns having gender in someone else's language. You know why I give up on articles? Because they are tiny words with big explanations that take forever, and everybody knows what you mean without them! English speakers saying "why is coffee masculine and newspaper feminine, that makes no sense!" can just stop. Manly coffee makes as much sense as A and THE. It is just grammatical construction, no one thinks coffee has dick.

Oh hey! Hi! Hello! I think I've finally figured it out. Wow, these screens are really tiny, aren't they? I'm really glad someone was nice enough to show me voice-to-text! That's very useful.

So, how about those door knobs? There's a lot of door knobs here so that's [...] new. Etheria doesn't really have a lot of door knobs, really, so this has been a fun little learning experience, really. There's a lot of people here from different worlds though, right? That's what they said at orientation anyway. What did everyone else find that was new here that isn't really a thing, exactly, in their own worlds?


Oh! I'm Scorpia, by the way! Nice to meet you all!

Wow this place sure is interesting. How do you guys get the buildings so high? And all these, what, cars? How do they run? Are the cars magic, or do you have to be a wizard to drive them? Because I would love to drive a car if someone has one! How fast do they go?

And this magical communication box (??? phone, I guess? What a weird name. Why's it called a phone?) is great too. We don't have this kind of magic back on Krynn. I mean, we do have some items that you can use to talk to people, but you can really only talk to one person at a time, I think, and they're pretty powerful. Not everyone has one like these phones (really, only powerful wizards have them I think) and no one's ever let me keep one long enough to see if I could contact more than one person.

Speaking of! Hi! I'm Tasslehoff Burrfoot, but my friends call me Tas! I'm a kender from Krynn, and I came here with my friend Caramon. We were only supposed to travel 356 years in the future (Not our future, we were in the past, so we were just coming home), but apparently our magical time traveling device malfunctioned and we ended up here! This horrible, ugly evil wizard (and like, awful evil, not fun evil) told us that because the evil Goddess Takhisis (do you guys have Takhisis here? Or Fizban? I didn't see them in the sky last night) repaired it (she didn't, my gnome friend Gnimsh fixed it for us before he was), it would send us to some terrible and awful place, but this place doesn't seem so terrible and awful. Nowhere that has magical boxes that sing (that was really fun, by the way) can be that bad. And all these things that try to eat you that are everywhere? Amazing!! I've never had so much fun trying to decide which chair to sit on or what lock to pick!

It seems interesting at least, but I guess interesting isn't always good. Like, watching the gods throw a mountain on a city was interesting, but it was interesting in a really terrible kind of way, especially since we knew it was coming but couldn't do anything to stop it even though I tried.


ANYWAY! I mentioned before that I came here with a friend, Caramon. Somehow we got separated when we arrived, so I guess he must be wandering around here somewhere on his own. He's probably pretty lost and very confused (unless another nice person helped him out! Hi Catra!!!!). He's pretty easy to spot though. He's really big - I mean he's big for a human too, not just a kender, though I guess he'd be a little bit small if he was a minotaur or an ogre. Not weirdly small, but on the small side - and he has brown hair. He's had a really, really bad day, so he might ask for some alcohol but please don't give him any! He'll be just as happy (happier even, I promise) with spiced potatoes! And then you can just message me where he is and I'll come pick him up!
