[ On pops the feed, showing one smiling and somewhat eager, Ariadne. And as always, she has been thinking (a lot) and has a few things she would like to talk about with everyone.

So… please enjoy? ]

I know that some of you are already aware of this fact – but, back home in Paris, I'm an Architect. [ a damn good one in her opinion, which, yes, only seems to cause a smug smile to start to tug at the corner of her mouth. ] And, well… given the apparent state of the Turtle as of late. I’m willing to have a look at any structural elements you might be concerned with.

[ a shrug of her shoulder and she is adding: ] There is nothing of major concern right now that I'm seeing. But… there have been a few things that have caught my attention. So just let me know if you would like to have me or even my friend from home look at anything for you.

[ a long beat and she is moving on to her next topic. ]

Also, Stephanie mentioned something to me, about a few of us trying to start a Foreigner ran Committee a while back. [ and this is where her expression turns a bit more eager (she really likes this idea, okay?) ] I really like this idea, and I'm hoping that we can maybe get the ball rolling on it?

After all, it might be a good way for us all to work together, and perhaps hopefully ensure that our voices are heard.

[ because lets face it, half of the "foreigners" aren't exactly use to living under a ruler and want to make sure their voices are heard. ]

I think that might be it for now. [ which only has her furrowing her brow in thought (gotta make sure after all) before she is sighing and smiling faintly. ] I know this whole ration thing is going to be interesting, but if you do need help with something, don't hesitate to ask.

Well… I guess it really depends on what we – as foreigners – see as important. [ a deep breath and she is smiling faintly into the screen ] I suppose they could almost be considered our elected officials?

[ though, she isn't exactly sure that is the best way to sell it – not everyone likes politicians after all. ]

[superoverachiever]

Okay, sure. But we can have all the elections we want. It doesn't mean we'll actually be able to get anything done.

I suppose sadly that might be true.

But they did say that they needed us here, right? [ at least that is what she thought ] So why wouldn't they want to try to work with us?

Things could only run easier, I would assume.

[superoverachiever]

Just because they need us here doesn't mean they need our cooperation.

[Surprisingly cynical for a sixteen year old? Maybe.]

[build]

And we can only hope that they realize that.

[ she might as well be somewhat optimistic here. ]

I'm hoping that with all of this that is going on, a committee might be able to fall into place a bit sooner, too.

[superoverachiever]

I hope it does. I hope it helps. [She just does not realistically see that happening.]

Well, if anything comes of this, I can sure make sure you know right away.
