Alright. I'm back.

Don't ask me where I went. I'll save us all a lot of time by saying I have no fucking idea? I would be more disconcerted, but shit just happening for no reason is a wheelhouse with which I am passing familiar so I'm ready to move on.

What I do know is they processed me as a new hire, again, and any system communication referring to "Karkat 2" is in fact about the same long-suffering asshole you have already come to know.

Please don't send shit to my old inbox because I won't be able to access it.

Actually wait. Do send your shit to my old inbox. A fertile plot of soil conditioning can grow from everyone's unwanted inane comments. We can use it to feed our anemic and spineless earth vegetables. God knows they don't bite hard enough to get any protein.

[heterochrocatic]

You think I need a REMINDER of what that psycho did to me?

3/3 okay she's done

[She gets Catra's anger. She'll just let it wash over her.]

I was actually referring to your name on it. Karkat isn't the only one who's gotten a change courtesy of Jorgmund.

Wait what?

I'm not going all the way back down there to figure out another mysterious form of Jorgmund hoofbeast leavings I'm missing. Spill.

Most of the people under 21 who have given the company a single name to call them by have been 'adopted'.

She's now Catra Jorgmund in the system.

Oh right. Humans don't believe anyone can get by without having a "parent."

Well thank fuck for the empire's algorithmic broodnaming system I guess.
