[VIDEO]; UN: [USERNAME NOT SET]

[The time away from Deerington has definitely not improved Ariadne's skill with a camera. The feed immediately pops on too close to her face, more or less framing nothing but her gray eye. She quickly realizes her error and pulls it back, the feed shaking and rattling until she manages to steady it.

And there she is. The face of an idol. Or possibly someone familiar.]


Just to be clear, I'm not Padmé Amidala and I'm not Jane Foster.

[Her voice is light and airy, like a little, trilling bird. She offers the feed a sympathetic look, as if apologetic that she's neither of these women. She's heard so much about them. They seem pretty great.

Ariadne is...not as great.

But she clears her throat and continues.]


It's me, Ariadne. I...well. I'm sure everyone is confused. I know I am. And if you need to talk about it, I'm happy to listen.

But, uh, what I really wanted to say is that somehow, my orchard is here. All of my trees. And some of them even have fruit. So if you need something fresh to eat or...just something familiar, you're welcome to come spend some time with my trees.

I think I might start a garden. One that everyone could use. Someplace to think. I don't know...

[And she's lost in thought for a moment. Ariadne knows nothing about starting a business or anything. But how hard could it be?

After a moment, she shakes her head.]


I hope everyone is all right.

[Oh, Airy is talking pranks, and Fern looks absolutely thrilled. Sorry Varian, this means you're doomed.]

Oh, yeah. A good prank is the best thing ever, especially if it convinces him - [Varian gets another nudge] - to go to sleep regularly.

[Varian has found mercy this day, lucky him. He lets out a groan, faux-annoyed. ]

Aww nooo, don't recruit more people into this madness.

[But hey, if he gets an extra friend out of it, he'll take it. ]

Too late!

[Sorry Varian, there's no way Fern isn't going to encourage someone to do pranks. He grins at Airy.]

Welcome to the club.

[Wow this is so rude. ]

Don't worry, it's a club people always seem to win at.
