[Video; the communicator's propped on a table or shelf to show Shego sprawled back across a (green) couch, fully suited up, elbows hooked over the backrest.]

O-kay. From your perspective I've been gone for like…eight, nine months? Given the turnover the last time I was here, I'm gonna guess that means as many people have no idea who I am as those who do.

Here goes: I'm Shego. I was an Inmate, then I was a Warden, graduated an Inmate, blah blah blah, for reasons too dumb to report I'm back to do it over. [She takes the glove off one hand and wiggles her fingers.] To answer some previous FAQs, I am not: an Orion, radioactive, suffering from leprosy, in any way contagious, or related-to-slash-associated-with the redhead with the plant schtick. I'm just - green. Do not attempt to adjust your set.

So if you got here any time after September of last year, I don't know who you are.  [Beat.]  Actually, if you got here any time before September of last year, even odds I don't know who you are either. Go ahead and fill me in anyway.

...And I guess a rundown on recent catastrophes would be useful just so I know what everybody's whining about this week.

[Friends Filter]

Sound off.

Oh, and Arthas, just to preempt your 'I told you so': you're totally right. I couldn't leave. I tried to go home, but every time I went to sleep at night I just saw your big, scowling, mottled face and I just had to come back and see it again.  Must be love, right?

[Warden-Bat-Filter]

[That is exactly what she wrote. You can decide if your character qualifies.]

Having some trouble tracking down Dick Grayson and Tim Drake. I'm thinking they've both gone, but - circumstances? Help a girl out here.

[Engine room filter]

Hey. I have no idea who's on this filter anymore and if the place is staffed then I'm gonna stay well out of it, but just so you guys know - I spent like two years working the engine room. I know my way around. Next time we crash into a hostile planet, beep me.

[Shego's sitting on a couch in her cabin. She looks...kind of blank, but not indecisive.]

Okay, kids.  I hate to do this while there's a flood on and everything, but as far as I can tell we're all in our right minds and we all know there's no such thing as the 'right moment' on the Barge. So.

It's been three years and one week, and...I'm done here. Leaving tonight. Time to move on.

[She hesitates and taps her fingers on her knee like maybe there's more to say, but there isn't, and eventually she just reaches towards the camera to change filters.]

[Friends Filter]

Well, it's been totally hellish, but....thanks. For everything.

Honestly, I'm hoping I don't come back, because if I do it means it's really hit the fan, but leave a line open for me the next time you get one of those crossed signal days. I'll check in whenever the Admiral's crappy wiring lets me. 

[Filtered to Dick and Tim]

I'm not going back to Gotham. I will really miss both of you, but...picking up the vigilante thing again feels too much like going backwards. Same temptations, higher stakes, y'know? And...as much as I hate this ship specifically, it's made it hard to be okay with spending the rest of my life in one place. I don't feel attached to anywhere like you guys do, and I've already wasted enough of my life setting my sights too low.

Say hi to Cissie for me the next time you get a chance, okay?  Tell her I'm sorry.

[Private to Prefect]

You...

Tell me you'll be okay, Prefect.

[Those who know Shego well will know that she's speaking with the artificially calm tone she uses when her other option is to yell and smash things, well-adjusted individual that she is.]

Kirk's in Zero. I've taken his Item.

He's here for five days and he's agreed to do three weeks' custodial duty.

[Private to Dick]

Check in on him? I -

[Long pause.]

Zero hasn't historically been the safest place ever, is all.

[OOC: This does not mark the end of the port! There'll be an Admiral announcement in an hour or so.]

[Backdated to a few hours after the end of port. Shego stumbled back on board after four days of almost no sleep and not much food and was not braced for a serious business talk with the Admiral at all. When she talks she sounds exhausted and...not stunned exactly, but very '.....that was something I wasn't expecting to happen today'.]

So, uh.

Regina graduated?

You should probably go tell her well done because I sure as heck didn't contribute all that much.

[OOC: Any responses from anyone except Regina will get a reply 12-14 hours later because she needed to put on some band-aids and get some sleep. :c]

And that's why I only use the Internet for clothes shopping.

Wish I'd been able to keep the puppets, though.

[She clicks off, then back on.]

....not for what she was doing with them, because.....gross.

Relatedly, if she ticked anybody off then I'm sorry, but not the kind of 'sorry' that admits culpability because her being a creepy nerd had less than nothing to do with me.

[Shego's looking as neat and cheery as ever - but there's a folded Kleenex sticking out of her shirt pocket and even while she's smiling her eyes are red-rimmed and sad.]

Hi, everybody! I thought it'd be a good idea to let everyone know that Regina's in one of those darned comas again. Honestly, I don't know how the Admiral expects her to get out of here if she can't even stay awake five minutes! Anyway, I've taken her to the Infirmary so she'll be looked after 'til it's over, and I'm going to visit her as much as I can, so don't any of her friends worry.

Otherwise, I...guess I'm going to try and be around a little bit more over the next few days. You all know Cissie left, and...she was like a little sister to me. I never had a little sister before, and I couldn't ask for a better one - I'm just so happy for her. She helped Isaac graduate and she's got her life together and she's got a plan and that's great. I know she's gonna do great things.

[Her smile fades a little.]  But I'm still gonna miss her a lot. I'm pretty down right now. But! it never helped anybody to just sit around sulking and let it fester, right? So I'll be around. If anybody needs any extra training in the gym or wants to go hiking in the CES or - you know, anything. I'm here.

[OOC: Obviously, Shego is affected! Long-termers will remember that she used to be unfriendly and asocial - but never sarcastic and embittered - but over time, making friends and coming out of her shell, she learnt the ~power of friendship~ and subsequently graduated. She's now a sweet, sincere person who will nonetheless kick your ass with a smile if you're disturbing the peace.]

[Hello, Barge. Have a uninformative shot of Shego's room and a voice from somewhere off-camera. He talks like a lot of the words should be in bold and sounds completely, ridiculously earnest.]

Good morning, people of the Barge! I am --

[He somehow realizes he's pointing the communicator the wrong way and the shot blurs as he spins it around. Hego is inexplicably wearing his blue and black costume plus mask even though he showed up in his PJs. Don't ask. Disney superhero physics. He clears his throat and offers his best heroic smile.]

Good morning! I am Hego of Team Go, guardians and protectors of Go City. I'm here on behalf of Shego, my sister and former fellow hero even though she doesn't like to hear about it all that much.

I'd like to speak with her Warden, if he or she happens to be around? I know my sister can be little bit prickly, and sarcastic, and mean, and likes breaking things and kinda makes it hard for people to like her - but I know she's still got the heart of a hero. And I think it's just swell what you people are doing for her and other people in the same boat. [Pun intended.]

In the meantime, if there's anything a fella can do to keep this place shipshape, don't hesitate to ask. I'm here to serve.

[OOC: Replies will come from hardhitting!]

Thanks, Admiral. Best week ever.

Regina? We should talk.

[OOC: Gah sorry for the Shego spam lately. THINGS KEEP HAPPENING.]
