-233- [Return from a Long Absence]

[impure_tale]

[The sound of happy barking in the background.]

It would seem that I took an unexpected leave of absence. My apologies to everyone I did not speak to beforehand, and it is my sincerest hopes that I did not give you a fright.

To the many new arrivals that have come in the time I have been gone: Welcome, and enjoy your stay.

To all others: Happy New Year?

'Enjoy your stay'. You are joking, I hope.

[megamind]

Ah, welome back Marquis. Did you have a lovely holiday?

[strangehistorian]

Hello, Marquis! It's good to hear from you.

[tentacruelest]

So. Yeh aren't dead yet.

It's good to meet you. I am called Scorpius.

I am led to believe you and I share adjoining quarters.
