[Ana has been mostly avoiding the network since her loss of the ambassadorial elections, partly out of embarrassment and partly out of relief. She wasn't sure she wanted to be in charge of anything, really. Still, dwelling on the election had made her think of home, her real position, with her people...and her family. Which was why this evening network post happened.]

[There might have been a glass or two of wine involved, too, if she was being honest.]

Hi. [She started, then hesitated, collecting her thoughts.]

I know that most all of us have left loved ones behind when we brought here. Friends, families...lovers. But...

[Another beat and a small breath.]

Is anyone else married? It's so strange. I've spent...mm. Longer than I'd like to admit with Vein. Good times and awful times but always...there.

I've been here nearly a year, now. A year without him or my daughter and...

[Where was she going with this? Another pause.]

Mm. I suppose I just need a distraction.

Tell me about your families. If anyone would like to, at least. Here or...there.

Don't worry about it. I have been other things far longer than I was ever really that.

[The complicated title problems of the living dead.]

If titles are something you care about, heirophant was mine. But it means nothing here, so I mostly tend to ignore it. Count Dooku is the only one that seems to insist on using it.

[Very formal, that one.]

You're probably right. I suppose we'll see. And then I'll let you know.

Titles are part of who you are, the echo of what you have in your home. You may not have those same things here, but I would say it's important all the same.

[ His tone becomes jovial. ]

But I do believe we will speak on this matter again. Perhaps sooner than either of us realize. I look forward to our next conversation.
