[ This is probably the only time Yusuf will use his device for its intended purpose- barring curses that make him make an arse of himself over the network. Thankfully, it is not his turn. We'll just leave that to Rhada the cat.

It would appear that Yusuf is trying to show the network the back of their couch until he angles it toward the floor and there is Rhada, playing with a hat like it was brought into the house solely for her enjoyment. ]



[ Yusuf's laughter can be heard in the background as Rhada gets the fabulous idea to try and eat the hat. ]



You my dear, are going to be in trouble when Arthur gets back. [ Surprisingly, Rhada seems to recognize that name ( The One Who Tried To Bathe Me ) and releases the hat to flop over and give Yusuf a look. ]

Hello, I was wondering if anyone was good with wood.

[Minds out of the gutter!] I broke my brother's chess set when everything was glass. It's back to normal now, but it's still broken. It's just broken wood instead of glass. [She holds up the knight piece in three pieces. The wood was nicely polished on the outside and the breaks were fairly clean though parts were splintered.] Some pieces are worse than others. I know I could get a new board, but this one is special to me if anyone thinks they can help.

[She then removes just a few people from the feed before continuing.]

[Filtered from Justin, Tommy, and Hanna]
Also, I have a hypothetical question. [Not hypothetical.] If a person was enjoying spending time with two people—one of whom she thought of as a friend and one who she was thinking of as maybe being more than that, but then she found out that the friend loved her and she isn't sure how she feels, but something like this had actually happened once before and didn't turn out well and she's afraid of that happening again then what should this person do? [The longest of sentences.]

Ah... That probably didn't make much sense, did it? Never mind. Thank you.

[ The message is short, to the point, an undercurrent of panic to Ariadne's voice that is seldom there any other time. ]

A woman appeared in my room. She needs to go to a hospital but I don't think she can move. I need a doctor, now.

[ Which means someone's going to have to come over to the Inception house, but they'll just have to deal with it. ]

((ooc: So Anna dropped into Ariadne's room. Whoops...))

[The message is a short one and Mithos has a cheerful smile on his face as he gives out his advice.]

If you'd all like some advice, I'd be glad to offer some of my own.

[He pauses for a moment before continuing.]

I'd advise you all to simply kill yourselves right now and save me the trouble of doing it later.  It will be easier and probably less painful if you all do it yourselves rather than waiting for me to do it someday.  At least you'd have some control over your own fates.

[Such a sweet "kid", isn't he?]

The key to happiness is simply this:

Life is short.

You will die.

No one owes you anything in this world.

And there is no key to happiness.

And most of you will die miserable and alone.

There. Now you have all been informed.
