While we are on the subject of baked goods, may I suggest that the baker-in-chief (that is, Mirasol), prepare for many festive occasions! We seem to be getting new citizens (SkyWhalePod and Groupoid, as well as people in the role playing games) and scouts (Moredhel) soon, and the Rangers’ office is already in sights for RanVor and Phyrestorm999! And Grey should be busy choosing his airport by now!

*nods dutifully, takes notes*
Yes yes, there will be plenty of baked goods available for all the future promotions. :)) :squirrelcookie: :squirrelcookie:



But now, to get to the actual parties!
Many congratulations and much confetti to Opaque and SkyWhalePod! (I hope the quarantine wasn´t too dreadfull for the poor whales!)

Wow, congratulations, SkyWhalePod! A very good amount of diversity showing up in the safe zone recently... first birds, now whales! Also, so much cake recently <3

Thank you thank you, everyone!  ^-^ I really did have to stop myself the other day from buying one of those big sugar-and-vegetable-shortening-frosted cakes you get in American grocery store bakeries, in response to all the celebratory sweets being slung around here. Thank goodness for self control!

*hand inches toward car keys and wallet*

The collective is fairly comfortable in quarantine, thank you for providing the facilities (whatever those wound up being -- they're nice, anyway)! Lacking thumbs with which to play cards and board games, certain members of us have formed a chamber music group, now that we don't have atmospheric winds interfering with our sensory organs. Anybody who likes is welcome to set up a chair near quarantine and play along! We'll kill time until Groupoid and others get here.

Makes the jawbone of a giant pike look petty, doesn’t it? And of course whales sing.

Such groups are a really, really rare sight over here, that's for sure. Back in their time, the attempts to solidly connect German flutes to blowholes were ... not pretty.

Yay! Welcome to scout-dom, moredhel.

As usual, I'm too late to get any cake.
