[ well THERE'S a username that hasn't been seen for a hot minute. Stella went for The Big Snooze sometime last November, so as far as she's concerned, it should be gearing up for Christmas. And then next thing she knows, she's crash landing back into the lake, she's being piled into one of the carriages and everyone's telling her it's February.

She's having a moment about it. A huge string of rapid-fire messages start shotgunning out. ]

FEBRUARY???
ARE YOU FREAKING K I D D I NG ME
IS THIS A PRANK???????
DID I DIE
I MISSED CHRISTMAS????????

[ ... Among other things. I'll spare you from having to read them all. Eventually, she calms the hell down enough that a... slightly more comprehensible post finally follows. ]

HI. SO. UM. Last I knew it was November something and now it's February and some ppl are telling me it's a familiar connection thing and u can understand that I wigged out a bit!!!!!! BUT... now i'm awake and i'm Back In Avalon so um. this is a reintro i guess??? if u already know me. skip this part.

HI!! I'm Stella and i was here for like, most of the year last year??? i guess i got blipped for some reason and now i'm kind of catching up and seeing who's still around. i really likeeee music & dancing (i'm an idol back home!) big dogs and glittery things. introducing urself is hard LOL

SO UM.... I'll be around I guess???? if any of my pals are still here lmk i wanna catch up with you guys!

Stella! Welcome back. I've missed you.

[He's smiling, trying to radiate that feeling of calm and familiarity at her. It's alright Stella, you're not dead.]

I seriously can't believe I was gone long enough for you to miss me! I was just going to sleep and then blammo, jump cut, I'm back in the lake! Seriously crazy!

[ this is about as calm as she's gonna get, it seems. that's stella for you! ]

[groundzeroes]

oh, Stella-chan
I did think you were being weirdly quiet. lol

[rei....]

So did they dunk you in the lake again? [or did you just wake up in a ditch somewhere??]

[prismatically]

YES THEY DID!!!! youd think they'd have figured out a way of getting people here w/o just dropping them into the water but nope!!! i got belly flopped in there with zero warning!!! like i know there's people there and the turtles come help u out but come ON there's gotta be a better way!! it SUCKS

[ absolutely furious. you can tell because there were no emojis. ]

[colchismagecraft]

[Well, that was some good news! Caster didn't want to admit it, but she'd missed her.]

[prismatically]

CASTERRRRRRRR!!! YES HI I'M BACK

[ she's definitely still stella at least ]

it was like 4 months or something right??? WILD

[corpsewarblade]

Wait, no way?? I seriously thought you'd just disappeared for good- wait, you remember everything, right?

Even me?

[After all, she'd grown used to people forgetting she existed...between the ones who came back without memories, and her own classmates.]

I mean, like, I had no idea you could totally pass out and come back like nothing happened, you know??

[prismatically]

JUNKO!!! HI!!! yes im pretty sure i remember anything!!!! i mean i'm like 99% sure? i don't feel like i forgot anything. i'm pretty sure i'd

WAIT HOW DO I FIGURE OUT IF I REMEMBER EVERYTHING

[hitokiri]

[ no one said he has to be nice about this. ]

[prismatically]

PLEASE SAY SIKE

[ HER NERVES CAN'T STAND THIS ]

[commediadellanime]

oh, i actually thought you had died or something!

[childe.........]

it's good to see you back, though!

also i don't think christmas happened? i don't know what that is, but i don't remember hearing anything about it.

[prismatically]

currently i'm like 99.99% sure i wasn't dead. i think i got blipped in time or something??? that's my theory rn. cos it was like. go for nap. fall asleep. wake up in lake like 4 months later. it's the only think i can think of that makes sense

[ how serious she is about this is entirely up to you to decipher. ]

[prismatically]

Welcome back!

[ They'd just talked once on the network months ago, but seeing people come back was always good! Well, from Stella's perspective that conversation was probably just a few weeks ago.... ]

Unless all of this is actually the afterlife and we're all together in limbo as we're being judged for our sins-- It's safe to say you're not dead, ahaha!

[prismatically]

YEAH.... thinking about it. i don't have any sins. not that i'm like a super squeaky clean person or anything i just don't think my life is wild enough for anything i do to count as a sin. unless you count some of the midnight snacks i've made when i have choco cravings.

[afoolshope]

[Big dogs, you say? Minato send a picture of a big black dog with red eyes lounging behind him. He tried to keep out of the shot, but it was an awkward angle and he may or may not be using said dog to lounge on.]

This is Kuro, my familiar. He's a church grim, I hope that counts as a big dog. Welcome back, although I don't believe we met before. Maybe.

I'm Minato.

[prismatically]

AAAAAAAAAA LOOK AT HIMMMMMM!!!!! HE'S SO BIG AND HIS FACE IS SO HANDSOMEEEEE

[ She could go on like this (and probably would) but for the sake of not blowing up Minato's phone, she'll restrain herself. ]

i'm so jealousssss!!! dgmw my familiar is sooooo cute and cuddly and i do like her but i miss my doggggggg

Hello, Stella. I know we haven't met before, but I'm glad you're back.

My name is Padmé and I too like music and dancing. But I'm a little confused: what is an idol exactly?

[prismatically]

OH RIGHT!!! I keep forgetting that's not a thing every other place does lol

Hmmmm i guess i'd explain it like. you guys have people who become celebrities with just singing and dancing, right?

[localdeliveryboy]

[ That's a lot of lingo and general emotion that he's not sure to process, much like everything else here. ]

Hello, good afternoon Stella. I'm Noah. I reckon I'm what you'd call new aorund here, so I'm still trying to wrap my head around all of this but a pleasure still to meet your acquaintance.

I'm not much of a dancer myself, but I do know a couple of songs from back home I sing to my little brothers and sisters. I'd be happy to share if you'd teach a poor torch how to dance. :)

[prismatically]

[ This guy has the soul of a grandpa....... cute!! ]

omg if you really wanna learn i would LOVE to teach u!!! i'm still kinda learning myself but i have a lot of the basics down and i managed to teach kate some stuff when i was here last lol. so it'd be super fun to try it out!!

WELCOME BACK!♥
I know we may have not talked before but I remember seeing your un and I really missed seeing your cute energy around here, while you were away~! Maybe we can be friends this time? I'm Usagi Tsukino, everyone calls me Usagi and here is my dog, her name is Marshmallow!♥

[The fake link will take her to an instagram account full of pictures and videos of an adorable, friendly looking Samoyed. Because she mentioned, that she loves dogs.]

[prismatically]

[ a cute girl noticed her....!!! she might've gotten dunked in the lake but her day is already looking up ]

omg YES!! hi!!! i'm planning(????) to stick around this time (if that's even something i can control lol) so i ABSOLUTELY want to hang out with more people. AND I ABSOLUTELY WANNA MEET UR DOG... SHE LOOKS JUST LIKE MINE

[ in return is a candid shot, evidently taken by someone else back home, of Stella in the middle of a half-cuddle half-tussle with a similarly goofy looking Samoyed. ]

[ ... well, that was a rollercoaster of a post from start to finish. ]

Welcome back, Stella-chan. My name's Tsumugi - it's nice to meet you.

[ Come on- where'd the button- oh, there we go. After about a minute, he sends over a picture of an older looking puppo. ] And this is my familiar, Fuyu! He's not a big dog, but I still think he's cute. He looks just like the dog I grew up with back home.

[prismatically]

OMGGGG WHAT A HANDSOME OLD MAN.... I LOVE HIM.... honestly talking about dogs in this post was my best ever idea because everyone's been sending me pics of their dogs LOL

[ was this secretly her plan all along?? probably not but you've gotta be suspicious anyway. ]

i'm kinda surprised tho! for some reason i just didn't expect there to be So Many Dogs
