[When the feed starts, there's a girl who will be familiar to some. She doesn't begin by explaining that she just returned or anything, though. Instead, there's a brief silence of only several seconds, but she soon starts to speak once she's found the exact words she wants to say.]

So, um, I know there's a clinic for the Transports here. And, I know it's probably only for people who have lots of experience in medical stuff to be working there, but I wanted to know if there was any kind of, like, training program, or someone who knows a lot about medicine and stuff that's showing people how to do it? I only know a little bit of first aid, but I'd really like to learn more, is the thing.

Apart from that, um... I'd like to hear stories from other worlds. It can be things that really happened to you, if anyone's comfortable with that, or famous legends from the place you lived, or, well, anything! I just like hearing about different places, and I think stories are a good way to do it.

No, but it's not like this is a tragedy!

[maddeninghatter]

Well, that's good. Cos I don't think you'd be very believable as a tragic heroine. You're too....

[ What's the word? ]

...plucky!

[quackery]

[She laughs.]

Nobody could make me be a tragic heroine if I didn't want to!

private;

[maddeninghatter]

Do you want to?

private;

[quackery]

Why would I ever want to?

private;

[maddeninghatter]

Fair point. Good.

[ A little pause. ]

Well, you've nothing to worry about. I doubt Gilbert would understand my story, even if I drew him a picture.

private;

[quackery]

I told you not to tell him the story in the first place! Why would you need to draw a picture even if you did tell him, though?

[maddeninghatter]

[ Ahahahha SO not answering that. ]

Anywayyyyyyy--

Look on the bright side. Perhaps you can find yourself an even better papa.

[She pauses.]

That's not something you can just decide to replace all of a sudden, you know? I don't need anybody like that.

[maddeninghatter]

Uuuuurrrrrrrghhhhhhhh~~~!

That sounds all depressing and tragic.

private;

[quackery]

That isn't depressing! I'm not saying, like, I'm never going to get over it and everything is awful.

private;

[maddeninghatter]

Depressing and plucky and tragic.

I'm going to be ill.

private;

[quackery]

I am not depressing or tragic! What about that was depressing or tragic?

private;

[maddeninghatter]

Nobody goes for comedy anymore.

[ A depressed, tragic-sounding siiiiiiiigh. ]

I'm going to hang up.

private;

[quackery]

Whatever, except you're wrong, because I'm not being depressing at all!

private;

[maddeninghatter]

You're right.

[ a little pause ]

There's nothing at all sad about this situation.

private;

[quackery]

Took you long enough!

[ Gently: ]

Good-bye, Ahiru.
