[ This is Baelish, coming to you from the Maurtia Falls Ambassador office. Not Baelish coming to you from his casino or Baelish coming to you from his strip club. That makes this professional, right? ]

Greetings, my fellow imPorts. For those of you who do not know me, I am Lord Petyr Baelish, Ambassador for Maurtia Falls. I wished to address you all to talk about a few things, but most importantly this Nonah election. It is of utmost importance that we vote and show support for our fellow candidates. The job of ambassador is an important one, and I believe all of these candidates have qualities that would work to benefit Nonah. It is in your hands to decide who best will fit your city. But I implore you to truly look into who has the policies and qualities you seek. I would be more than happy to illuminate some of those to any imPort who may not have been following the race too closely.

[ And that's all he says on the matter since his good pal Dorian Gray had always harped on him about talking too much in his network posts. ]

Second of all, for those of you who recall the attack in Philadelphia at the ambassadorial celebration -- did any of you happen to return with the remains of one of those monstrosities, whether it be for scientific study or perhaps as a souvenir? I have been curious about what information can be gleaned from them -- especially in relation to the ImProcreats, if anyone still happens to have their little creature from that Swear In for comparison.

[ A beat. ]

And lastly, I understand this day to be a day of gratitude -- a nationwide celebration for families and friends to get together and sit down for a meal. Unfortunately, on this holiday I find myself largely alone and I am certain there are others who are in a similar position. If anyone has need of company, I can provide a place and wine if you can provide a dish of food or two. It does not have to be traditional in terms of what is served, but the important thing is that we are not alone when we could be together.

That is all. In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I thank you all for your time and wish you a wonderful holiday.

Oh, in that case: my statement remains accurate.

You've always been a man of fine taste.

If only others would realize this truth.

How could they? It takes class to recognize it in others.

I suppose I will have to reluctantly deal with my disappointment in others. [A beat.] Do you feel the same?

Often. One of the most difficult adjustments I've had to make is dealing with how outspoken and disrespectful some of these people can be. We still have people like that back home, of course. But most of the people I interact with in Westeros are of a different make than the imPorts and natives in this world.

It must be an isolating feeling -- between your personal expectation, and the unfolding reality.

It's certainly a disappointment. But I'm adaptable and I'd like to think I can adapt to even this.

You and I understand the importance of that, at least. And -- perhaps a couple other might, as well.

Credit where credit is due.

Credit goes to you as well, my friend. You've done quite well for yourself in this world. A house of your own, a steady girlfriend, a hospital under your authority, and a best selling novel. Your continued adaptability means you likely will only continue to grow and spread your reach.

Will you still be seeing imPort patients in your new hospital or will you only see the criminally insane?

Oh, imPort patients, certainly. I find that they especially require a delicate... Touch.

It does help, really. To have one of our own there to ease the transition into this world. I imagine most do find it distressing. You could likely write a book on the various reactions you've encountered when it comes to imPorts first arriving through the porter. Most I've seen have been at the extremes of either denial or acceptance. But you must have encountered much more interesting ones in your time.

A few. [A particular name comes to mind, but Baelish would have already known it. Chilton actually did write a book about the man, after all. That was a psychological journey from start to finish.]

But I find that it is the trauma endured here that I tend to treat more frequently.

Such as what happened with the Russian invasion nearly a year ago? Or are there more menial traumas people are facing?

[ Give the deets, pal. Baelish wants to know about everyone else's suffering. ]

At this point, it is more the personal dramas that imPorts find themselves embroiled in.

[Like Will and Dorian sending you a bunch of organs.]

We are quite the dramatic lot, are we not? And a great deal of that happens right over our very network. Who needs a good television show in that case?

You bring up a good point. [Baelish continued to prove remarkable; he had caught onto technology like television far quicker than any other anachronistic person.] There might be enough that we do to sell in market, don't you think?

That shall be our legacy. I do hope you've been taking extensive notes. They will need something left behind to tell the story when we all depart from this world.

Certainly a pretty thought, Ambassador Baelish.

What legacy would you personally choose to leave behind, Doctor Chilton?

Oh, I have my book. And now this hospital. Knowledge, narrative, and monuments -- what more could a man ask for?

Power.

[ The sort of power that is far more than narrative and monuments. Petyr will give Chilton knowledge, though. ]

You haven't enough power already?

Oh, I did not mean for me. You said what more could a man ask for, and I was answering.

Although, I do hope you would give me more credit than to think I would be content only being an ambassador for the duration of my stay in this world.

I would not insult you with such assumptions, no.
