[Lance is clearly back in Hadriel since the video is catching the backdrop of his kitchen, nondescript and standard as always; he really should decorate this place at some point. He's finally done something about his hair though, so although it's still long enough to curl a little it's back under control, if not exactly masterfully styled. He did his best.

But the biggest change after his vacation is that he seems a bit brighter than he has been recently, not as tense and distracted. Things aren't perfect or even really close to truly resolved, but they're better enough that he's making this post.]

Hey, so, I'm back from exploring, and therefore both my actual and metaphorical vacation; this means that if anyone needs any professional advice, or just to talk to someone, I'm available. Especially since the latest event seemed...

['Not great' are the words coming to him, but those aren't particularly professional, so--]

Particularly stressful, to all those involved, for reasons that may be more complicated than usual.

[He also totally stalked all those network posts that happened at the time, and is really glad he missed this event himself. He's keeping in mind the possibility of leaving the city to avoid others in the future if possible, though it's such a simple solution that he's not sure it'll work.]

I'd also like to remind those here, especially new arrivals, that we've recently compiled a list of people willing to teach different skills, and if you'd like to teach something just let me know what. Hopefully we can all stave off boredom and learn something useful at the same time.

[That part addressed, he feels like he should add something else he's been holding off on; it's been awhile, so surely people have noticed by now if they were going to care, but still.]

For anyone unaware, Dr. Brennan disappeared early last month. That means I have her book, if anyone who wanted to read it hasn't had a chance to do so yet.

[Because that's, of course, the biggest issue here. The book.

And, so as not to leave off on a somber note--]

Is there anything important that wasn't on the network that I missed while I was gone?

[Fill him in on stuff, people~]

( Well, it looks like the holiday worked, but Serah's face falls a little at the news about Brennan. She was one of the first people Serah met here. But she supposes it's good that the woman is back home where she should be. )

She wrote a book?

Yes, she's a writer at home in addition to her main job as a forensic anthropologist. She decided to write a book here and finished it a few months ago.

[Somehow. Lance is still not sure how she writes so quickly.]

( Huh, the more you know. )

Can I read it sometime?

Of course; there's someone else on the list, but once he's finished I'll make sure you're next.

Great. ( That warm smile is back again. But before she forgets. )

Oh. Can you add cooking and general education to my name? ( She got caught up in helping the people who wanted to teach last time, but she should really include the skills she can offer too. )

Sure, will do. How's the school going, by the way?

[It's been a little while since she said she found a place, after all, so he might as well check in.]

Good. Everything's clean and people can use it whenever they want. ( Maybe she should make an announcement about that at some point. )

If it's okay with you, I'll see if I can add that to the list somewhere in case people would like to hold some classes there.

Of course. Thanks, Lance.

( Does this girl ever stop being sunshine? Well... n o... )

[A sunshine person is a nice change in this place okay never stop.]

You're welcome.
