Whale, whale, whale, looks like it's almost been another whole year. And in three weeks some of us will have been here for two years! It's sun-believable! Feels like I just got here yesterday sometimes. Then I look back on all the stuff I did, the friends I made, the family I found and feels like it's gone by in a flash! Not to get em-ocean-al or anything like that.

Tell me about some of the fin-tastic stuff you've done in your time here. Or the things you wanna do in the future!

I don't have any o-fish-al questions or anything, so just say crab-solutely anything on your mind! Don't get tide down with details.

Let's sea, for me, a lot of good stuff happened - and some kinda bad too.
1. Got to ride a ferris wheel with my newly adopted dad.
2. Painted a mural.
3. I have a family who accepts all of me even after they've seen the worst of me.
4. Sword lessons, gun lessons!

Hm, things I wanna do in the next year.
1. Have a birthday party!
2. Paint more murals.
3. Adopt a dragon sibling.
4. Become different creatures from other worlds (I'm working on chocobo)!
5. ... not use text-to-speech or speech-to-text function so much.

Ok, your turn now. You'll be shrimp-ly amazing!

[ It's a throwback to Nimona's first post on the network where she had a bunch of sea puns, so at least she doesn't do it too often. That's exactly how it's been for her, and why she's focusing on the positive. ]

Who'd want it to be "normal" though? What even is normal?

All very good things! What kind of animal? Ooo, who is it?

[withermarked]

Seems like everyone here has a different idea of that.

Angel, one of the three-headed dogs at the Conservatory. The one no one adopted before. They're staying there for now, but I'm caring for them.

He goes by Hawks? You might have seen him around, hard to miss the big red wings.

[ Which he doesn't actually have right now, but that's less fun to talk about. ]

[pinksidekicking]

Right? I say we throw the word normal out the window, but people would just make up a new one.

Aw, a cutie! I could bring dad's three-headed dog around if Angel wants some more company. Fenrir is very well trained.

I think I know him, not very well but he's been here a while, right?

[withermarked]

That would be nice, I think. I'm still trying to get Angel a little more trained, never had a dog before. Is Fenrir one of those ones from the same litter?

Yes, he's been here a lot longer than me. About a year, I think.

[pinksidekicking]

Having a dog's pretty easy. Even a three-headed one. I dunno about same litter considering all the dogs are different breeds, but they were all available at the same time on the MANTA board.

Yeah, I know a lot of people but not everyone. There's actually a lot of people here from other worlds, and some come and go so fast.

[withermarked]

I'll take your word for it. Doesn't seem too hard, but it's all new. And from what I'm given to understand these are... wilder.

[ He's still not sure if Angel is going to stay this friendly forever. ]

I've seen some of that.

[ Like Hawks leaving and coming back. He's still upset about that, but at least he did, in fact, come back. ]
