Hi everyone.

I’ve been sitting on an idea for a while and wanted to see if anyone was interested. We’ve got a lot of people from different cultures here, and at least where I come from, one thing most cultures have are traditional dances. Now I don’t know about you, but I love to dance, and I always enjoy learning about new cultures.

So would any of you be interested in forming a, uh, dance club? Each member could have a turn to teach the rest of the group a dance from their home -- or just learn new ones, if you don’t know any! I was thinking we could start with a cha-cha, but obviously that depends on who’s curious about what.

Everybody! I'm not sure exactly what the current flood is all about, but everything seems to be okay. As far as I could tell, anyway, I got a little distracted. [He beams and holds up a small clump of scaly grey feathers approximately the size of a tennis ball.]

The egg from Lakeside hatched this afternoon! I looked through a bunch of birdwatching field guides and bestiaries and pet care books, and I'm pretty sure she's a dire hummingbird. So say hello to Winifred, everyone, the newest passenger on board!

[Private to Megamind and Fukawa]
I want to thank you two especially, for rescuing me from the mother hummingbird and helping me hatch this one. I really owe you both.

OOC: Mark is not affected and neither is the hummingbird! He's always like this.
