📢 ANNOUNCEMENT: Regenerative Identity Mix-Up

Due to a recent clerical error in the Regeneration Registry (codebase last updated during the Morbius Uprising), several members of staff may now legally be each other. If you've found yourself responding to a name you don't recognise, giving lectures you don't remember writing, or suddenly knowing how to play the harp, you may be affected.

Please report to Records if:

You are legally two people.

You are currently engaged to yourself and did not arrange it.

In the meantime, try to only answer questions you are reasonably sure pertain to your current identity.

Annatar enters the forge that morning expecting to find Celebrimbor dithering and pacing still- ready to ply him with gentle reassurances , pry at injured pride - whatever it takes to make the Lord of Eregion act in defiance of his High King's supposed orders- and thus isolate himself from his allies without even seeing it. He had come close, yesterday evening. Annatar had sensed it. A rush of righteous anger, a half uttered proposal to write back to Gil-galad with a message of false compliance....

But something had made the elf stop, suddenly. He had begged Annatar to leave him think- and this, Annatar had gladly done. Celebrimbor is too clever- too compassionate- too proud- too self-effacing. He will have spent the night thinking himself into knots, and oh how Annatar will enjoy playing with the tangle-

The forge is empty.

Or rather, it is empty of Celebrimbor. A handful of smiths are present, either standing and conferring quietly, or else sitting and sketching.

The furnace is a cold, gaping maw within which no flames dance. Annatar knits his brow.

"What is this?" He demands, to the room at large. A few of the smiths look up, wide eyed. One of them- the blond haired she-elf Celebrimbor seems to regard with no small amount of favour, breaks away from conversation with two of her collegues and walks toward him. At an appropriate distance, she stops and curtseys. "Lord Annatar," she says. "Did not Lord Celebrimbor speak to you before he left?"

"Before he-"

Annatar gapes. It is undignified; he cannot help it. The last time he felt this much shock, the Moriander runt had just brought his master's crown down upon his back. The she-elf speaks again, placid and oblivious and her voice the quiet simpering of bright bells on a spring breeze. Annatar wants to burn her, wants to burn the whole forge-

"He has gone to Lindon to plead with the High King. He says if he cannot reason Lord Gil-galad into granting leave for dwarvish rings, he will get down upon his knees and beg- and if that fails he will entreat that at the very least, the three might be brought to Khazad-dûm- if King Durin will allow such aid from the elves. In the meantime, he bids us consider other means of aid. We think to offer supplies, but must consider how to do so in ways that will neither offend nor seem to take advantage- we have been speaking of ways in which light may be stored to give sustenance to the farms below ground- your input would be most welcome, my lord, if-"

"When did Celebrimbor leave?" Annatar interrupts through gritted teeth. He tries to draw back his anger- this may yet be to his advantage. He can catch up with Celebrimbor- accompany him to Lindon. Let the elf so overburdened with thoughts of his family's disgrace be horrified if the High King, the Peredhel, or the La- or she dare gainsay an emissary of the Valar. Let Annatar meet this Gil-galad, this High King of Elves, for himself, and see if he would not have him beneath his thumb as he had Celebrimbor! Celebrimbor could not have been gone before the daylight, so-

"Before midnight, he was gone; news had come from Lindon only two or three hours since, he said," the she-elf is looking at him with - sympathy? Why? "He had left word by way of a note in the forge-but our paths crossed by chance. I was coming from the stables as he was going to them."

"You did not think," Annatar near growls, "to stop your lord heading for orc-infested woods alone in the dark?"

"He wasn't alone, Lord Annatar- he took guards with him." Again, the sympathetic smile- as though that were some consolation- if Celebrimbor took guards, what excuse does Annatar have to go after him- to try and bring him back-? "My lord?" The girl drops her voice, speaking as though what she has to say now is not to be overheard. "Lord Celebrimbor is- he is often over anxious not to be a source of worry to his friends." She emphasises the word, as though it were some great conspiracy. "If he did not speak of his plans to you, it is more likely he thought to spare you a burden than that he paid you no mind at all."

He forces his face into a taut smile, and does not tear her throat out for the backhanded slight. "Thank you," he says, voice clipped. "For your wisdom. I must...consider matters; I will leave you to your work." He will not waste his considerable knowledge and talents peering at the busy work of apprentices- he barely bothers to acknowledge the she-elf's farewell curtsey with a stiff bow of his own head before he is out of the forge, out, out, and striding forth he knows not where beneath a veil of simmering rage.

Brazilian FM asks Venezuelan colleague to let refugees go to Argentina

Brazil's Foreign Minister Mauro Vieira asked his Venezuelan counterpart Yván Gil for a safe-conduct for the six opposition leaders staying at the premises of what used to be Argentina's Embassy in Caracas but has been left up to Itamaraty after the expulsion of Buenos Aires' mission.

Pedro Urruchurtu Noselli, Humberto Villalobos, Claudia Macero, Omar González, Fernando Martínez, and Mottola Magalí Meda have remained there since March 20 after an arrest warrant was issued against them, waiting for a safe passage to the airport to travel to Argentina, where they have already been granted asylum by President Javier Milei's Libertarian administration. They are all close collaborators of opposition leader María Corina Machado.

According to CNN Brazil, Vieira made the request during a meeting in New York in the framework of the United Nations General Assembly. Gil replied that he would convey the request to President Nicolás Maduro.

📢 ANNOUNCEMENT: Dalek Integrates into the Institute

SOR-112-THESIS has settled in well.

Several staff members have expressed concern that the Dalek may be confused as it's repeatedly shouting "EXPLAIN!?" at the Earth coffee machine in the Staff Room. The situation is under review.

Additional notes:

The Dalek has begun issuing daily motivational messages over the tannoy system. Please disregard any advice involving conquest.

It has joined the staff karaoke rota. We regret to inform you that its rendition of "Bohemian Rhapsody" was deeply unsettling.

Oxgawoa has reportedly taken over liaison duties with the Dalek. We... did not assign him that role.

All things considered, things are going well. Probably.

For the headcanon ask, I'm trying to choose between Tristan and Rodney. Can I ask for both please?

Absolutely you can, Sam!

Tristan

Sexuality Headcanon: lesbian, no question, and almost always butch4butch.

Gender Headcanon: cis woman for whom being butch is like breathing, both in the "easy" and "necessary for living" ways

A ship I have with said character: she has her professor butch girlfriend Gil for that, but I could also imagine an alternate reality in which some of her nonromantic relationships with women (like Isabel or Celia) were somehow romantic instead.

A BROTP I have with said character: if we're looking for high levels of bro energy, her and Cady, no contest. For Friendship Is Unbreakable, her and Bo. For a vibe that intrigues me greatly but I have yet to fully explore, her and Isabel.

A NOTP I have with said character: any ship where she's with a man, especially just because of proximity (an example would be Tristan/Declan).

A random headcanon: I haven't really built out her backstory but I've always kind of imagined her not having a dad for some reason and Von becoming her father figure.

General Opinion over said character: she deserves the world and also an excuse to do ballroom dancing on the page.

Rodney

Sexuality Headcanon: gay, mostly attracted to bears and also a big enjoyer of t4t relationships.

Gender Headcanon: trans guy who has had top surgery.

A ship I have with said character: let's be honest Rodney ships himself with Allison even though he knows that even if it could happen he would never find it in himself to ask. Finding out that Allison is in an open relationship has been a devastating and impossible blow.

A BROTP I have with said character: Rodney and Isabel will never stop being the top shelf of brotps for me (yes I know they're related but). Same deal with Rodney and Hatt. However Rodney also grew up with Spinder around all the time, and they're good friends, but I really haven't explored that one enough. And like I said in a long-ago blorbo blursday post, Rodney and Gil are really mlm/wlw solidarity and they get along extremely well.

A NOTP I have with said character: Declan. I don't think it's squicky but I promise you it does not make as much sense as it might seem, not least because Declan has never considered himself not married.

A random headcanon: I don't know if I ever actually mentioned this but he has been accomplice to an actual crime, namely when Isabel broke into one of her exes' houses to take back her stuff and he stood watch. He also loves slimy foods.

General Opinion over said character: he is both my poor baby and extremely cool and admirable.

Send me a character!

"---So you've made it here as well." With an awkward laugh, Circe started. Everything was fine. Yup. Sure, she could handle Odysseus sharing the same space as she again. No, of course she could act normally and didn't feel like screaming, crying or embracing him again. She would slap herself on the cheeks if it weren't for the audience. "What a coincidence."

Really, she should be ashamed of herself for feeling all these emotions. After all, a lot had happened since he had left Aeaea. 

"Is that a new look? Can't recall you having dressed like that before." Or had she just blocked it out of her memory? She wasn't quite certain.

📢 Newly Discovered Matrix Archive Recording – Fascinating Archaeological Evidence

During routine archival maintenance, a truly bizarre audio file was uncovered deep within the Matrix archives. While its authenticity is unverified, the voices bear a striking resemblance to none other than Rassilon and Omega themselves.

For historical analysis, we present the transcription of this peculiar exchange:

📜 TRANSCRIPTION: (Recovered from deep within the Matrix. Context unknown.)

OMEGA: Baby, it seems we never, ever agree You like the movies, and I like TV RASSILON: I take things serious and you take 'em light OMEGA: I go to bed early RASSILON: And I party all night BOTH: Our friends are saying we ain't gonna last ... OMEGA: 'Cause I move slowly RASSILON: And baby, I'm fast! OMEGA: I like it quiet ... RASSILON: And I love to shout! BOTH: But when we get together, it just all works out

RASSILON: I take, two steps forward OMEGA: I take two steps back BOTH: We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know, it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract

RASSILON: Baby, ain't it something how we lasted this long? OMEGA: You and me proving everyone wrong RASSILON: Don't think we'll ever get our differences patched OMEGA: Don't really matter 'cause we're perfectly matched

RASSILON: I take, two steps forward OMEGA: I take two steps back BOTH: We come together 'cause opposites attract And you know, it ain't fiction, just a natural fact We come together 'cause opposites attract

📢 Matrix Archivists' Official Statement:

'We don't know how or why this exists. We don't know what it means. We are choosing to look at it exactly once and never speak of it again.'
