THE FUTURE / meeting

[bubblegum]

DEAR FRIEND as you know,  your flowers are withering
your mother's gone insane, your leaves have drifted away.
but the clouds are clearing up
and i've come reveling, burning incandescently,
like a bastard on the burning sea.

YOU'RE JUST LIKE YOUR FATHER,
BURIED DEEP UNDER THE WATER.

The tigress watches quietly as everyone shuffles in, making small talk, choosing their seats. There's a slight fuzz in her mind, only barely distracting her. It isn't quite loud enough to cause her to lose focus, and more than likely it was probably just a headache coming on. And so, she shoves it aside, her feathery tail tip twitching as she goes over everything that needed to be said in her head. First things first, always, was a notice to the joiners. "Firs' off, welcome t' everybody new. Don' forget t' get your charm earrings n' complete your entrance rituals accordingly."

Next, some very brief announcements regarding ranks. There wasn't too much to be said, at the moment everyone she thought she should be a high position was already promoted. "Torsten's been 'round a lot, so thanks! Thank you t' Roan and Michael, as well, for bein' so helpful." She puts on a light smile, eyeing the three names she mentioned. Torsten was a bit too young for her to want to promote to a high position, perhaps give a title next meeting, and Roan and Michael were both the highest ranks they could be at the time being, so she figured shout outs would have to do for now. "Lawkit has been absent wit' his sage duties, so he will be demoted for now." To be frank, she thought the male was a bit too young to hold such a position anyway. Being sage and soothsayer was too much burden for a child. "Thank you t' everybody for bein' around in general."

Now for something more interesting - parties. Not exactly a party, but close enough. Something to get excited about, at the very least. "We've got some events kickin' off for the end o' the month, somethin' for everybody. Go check those out, n' if you participate in all o' 'em, you can get a nice title outta' it." She flashes a quick grin after mentioning the title.

And then, that was mostly it. Easy enough. She figured she'd better mention visiting Tanglewood, considering their absence had not gone unnoticed. Something was going on. "Also, just as a sidenote, somethin' weird has been goin' on wit' Tanglewood this past month, it seems like, so I'll be takin' time t' visitin' 'em soon n' figure out what's happenin'." If anyone felt like piping up and stating they'd join in, she'd be just fine with that. She only hoped there was nothing bad going on with their ally. "Thas' all I got for you this time, thanks for listenin'."
