Haha, I WISH! I haven't had a growth spurt in ages... I think I'm doomed to stay as short as Mom, ugh.
Anyway, hope you're not too disappointed that it's just me instead of my brother... He says he's sorry to miss you, but he's been dealing with a lot. Apparently, one of the lab items that he uses to monitor the Tatters got misplaced, even though Hypothesis swears they didn't eat it -
Hypothesis: NEVER! Rare and important safety components = strictly off-limits for snacking! Endangering the populace: NOT delicious!
Yeah, it was a big deal, 'cause Lycus uses that stuff to make sure that Unmaking stays safe for everyone! Could've been a MAJOR disaster! But he was able to do some hasty calculations and rig something together to keep everybody safe until his rush-order replacement from the Solarium arrived. Which was... great! I mean, it was awesome. Obviously! You know how it is with my bro. Always having those big hero moments...
Anyway, he seemed pretty stressed out, and I've really been trying to step it up recently, so I volunteered to take on his extra tasks! Which means delivering this message... AND running the June Site Contest!
That's right, we're gonna have a Kith Showcase Category, with the theme of Tips and Tricks - everybody, give me your best Kith-raising advice! 'Cause the contest will begin on June 13th, and by then... DRUMROLL PLEASE... I'm definitely gonna have a Kith of my own to show off!!!

I know, right? So I've got this in the bag! Which is to say, technically my parents haven't exactly given me the full final actual total approval... YET!
But next month, I'm taking them out to a fancy-pants meal I'm gonna pay for with my own money to give them the big pitch. And I've been doing a TON of planning, so even if it might be a little chaotic... Trust me, I've got it ALL under control!

Piper's got this in the bag! She's been able to keep up a business with TWO lines of revenue, games and snacks. That's gotta be enough to impress the parents!

Piper's getting a kith of her own?! [@Piper] I'm so excited for you, I'm sure you'll do a good job! Have you decided what kind you want in advance, or are you going to see what appeals to you when you go to the Tatters? Planning everything out can be fun, but sometimes it's also neat to see where the wind takes you!
...speaking of the wind. Dammit, can't they ever keep their paws off?

Oh Piper such excellent news! You are definitely ready for a kith, believe you me!
Jasper: Yes. I agree.
See? :D Best of luck to you, Piper! ^^
(And of course, Marcus, lovely to hear from you too, as always! Hope things have been going alright in the Reef! I'll visit again soon!)

Fandom: THE FAE ARE MAKING THE FIRST ATTACK! EVERYBODY SCATTER!
Ah- Fandom- and there he goes.
Friday: The twins will go get him, don't worry Vicky! But all this talk of disappearing safety measures.... maybe we should hang back on unmaking for now.
Maybe... it might be worth the risk, the more resources we have- I'll cut back on it, maybe. I'll make sure to take an extra ally with me. Maybe I could convince Elliot to let one of you tag along...

Ohhhh, [@Piper], it's really happening?! Well, I mean, as a big believer in tempting fate I wouldn't be so sure and start spreading the news right now, but... I'm so excited for you if it goes through! I don't really have words for how I do it, myself, but I'm always down to try to help you out if you need it!! But also, if there's anything you need to talk about, I'm here too. You seem a little.... never mind.
... I am choosing to focus on the good news instead of the bad.
