I don't know what people do on extended vacations. It's too quiet. I can't focus. Do you feel like you're being punished? At least I was able to rescue most of my wardrobe. I'm cutting up the rest for rags. Not that there's much to cut.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

[Set up in Sheska's room, the phone is getting a great view of what an absolute mess she's made of it. There are clothes everywhere. The woman of the hour is wearing red and black lace chemise and pouting into the nearly empty interior of her closet.]

Oh my gaaaaawd... I have, like, nothing to wear. This is awful! What was I thinking when I bought all this junk? I guess it's fine for work, or whatever, but you can't go out in this stuff! I mean look at this.

[She pulls out a lavender lace dress, holding it up in disgust.]

What am I, sixty? Are we having a tea party? Puh-leeze. I need something fun and fresh and attractive already. Alright...

[She spins to face the camera with a brilliant smile, one foot cocked and arms up in a little victory sign.]

Shopping spree~ I am way overdue for a new wardrobe. Who wants to come with~?

I hope we're not starting summer early. The heat wave was bad enough last time. Is everyone doing all right? Do we need to make air conditioner or water bottle runs for anyone? I have some free time at the moment...



[Private text to Koizumi]
I overestimated the amount that my recipe was going to make and have far too much for me. Have you eaten already?

[Private text to Sirius]

[Iiiiit's big Dave. And in the background of his apartment, is that--]

So in the absence of an actual overlording alien seabitch to take down, it looks like my part in the Great Earth Turf War's been declassed to arguing with troll kindergartners about Dita Disgusta and how she definitely isn't the hero of Turbo Transformin' Power Soldiers. For the record, "Yeah huh she is!" is not a valid point of debate no matter how many exclamation points you tack to the end.

["Shut up, it totally matters!"

Oh god, is that little Vriska scratching up his furniture in the background? Dave, why.]

Yeah, no. Anyway, as dialogically fulfilling as I find this kind of intellectual back-and-forth, the little larva's looking for her mom. And I'm looking not to brood the Empress's get. Also she ate all the bacon I made for lunch. So if anyone's seen like a giant spider--

["Like, HUUUUUUUUGE!"

Dave has to tilt his head a little to indicate how hard he may be rolling his eyes behind his sunglasses.]

--Okay, a huge giant spider, drop me a line. Name's Dave Strider. Like the movie guy.

[A much older Carol greets you today, New Moore. Older and rather exasperated.]

I see New Moore is up to it's usual shenanigans. Would it be too much to ask for a little warning?

Alright, New Moore Alliance: Status report. Who's affected by whatever this is and do we need to set up a response or is this the parakeet thing all over again?

[Carol's sitting on one of her dinning room chairs, looking at the camera with a bit of apprehension. Her posture is just a bit to straight, her jaw just a bit too tight. This is not the same Carol Danvers who has called the island her home for the past year.

She'd watched all the videos she'd left for herself, all the videos her friends had left her. Now there's just this.]

Hey, New Moore.

Wow, okay, this is weird.

[She takes a deep breath.]

You guys apparently know me, but I don't know you. Apparently I've been here a year, but it feels like I just woke up here this morning.

For those of you who knew about my brain injury, it's taken care of now. I'm cleared to fly again. Unfortunately that means I don't remember any of you. I don't really remember much about home either...

Anyways, if I know you, or I guess even if I don't, it'd be nice if you could introduce yourself. I left myself some videos so I know a lot of namesm but only a few faces.
