"All different kinds! The kind you'd make is probably more like a vlog than anything else unless you specifically want to start a cleaning channel or a cooking show or something."

Vlog!!! She's getting so many new concepts!!!

She is going to have to figure out how to turn getting a following from shapeshifting videos or something into getting people to be nice, but that sounds like the kind of challenge made for her. 

"How do you run a vlog?"

"You record yourself talking about things - what happened to you that day, or what you've been reading and thinking about, or what questions people have been sending you. Then people can comment on the videos! We'd probably want to have someone screening your comments because you're a kid and you're gonna get very famous as soon as you start posting."

Hmmmm she does not want them failing to tell her about Amenta problems, because then she will not be able to fix problems. But she knows famous stars and stuff get so much mail...

"Maybe a sorting thing? If people are just saying they really liked it, that's nice but can go in its own box? And then if I wanna answer questions I can look in the questions box, and there can be boxes for types of questions? If that's not too hard?" And then she can get on the internet on her own to look at what people are saying about problems, and they maybe won't think to censor other languages yet if they can censor stuff.

"There will be billions of people watching and in a group of people that big some of them don't always behave nicely. I don't think it'll be too hard to sort people just saying that they really liked it for you to look at whenever you want if we're screening anyway, but some of the questions might not be appropriate at all."

"Oh. I guess if people are gonna say really mean things..." This seems another 'very important to them to do' thing.

"Some people might, yeah. I wish I could say everyone was going to be perfectly friendly."

"Maybe I can be a good example for them."

"Maybe you can! A lot of people try to be good examples and I think it helps. Just not all the way."

"Yeah."

"I'm not sure what other stuff I need to know right now."

"That's all right. We're almost there."

One of the other greens says, "There's a guest house the Governor's put aside for you, does that sound good?"

Translating, and: "Mom says sure."

The truck pulls up outside the house. The door doesn't open right away, but a minute later they get the all-clear and can troop out into the house. There are some greys milling around, and inside there are more greens, and some yellows, and a couple of blues.

She has enough words by now to check if the person who gave her the pocket everything she's been learning to read on wants it back.

Otherwise, she keeps her hand on Bright's shoulder, and tries to identify whoever considers themselves in charge here.

He does want it back, but one of the yellows promptly hands her one of her own open to the same language app.

That blue over there is probably in charge, though one of the greens also seems to feel very important.

Blues are supposed to be their leaders...

"Hello," she says to them, facing the blue and speaking a bit carefully. "I am Combing Sorrow."

"It's delightful to meet you, Combing Sorrow, I'm Irend be-Pavain and this is my colleague Ude be-Avalor."

"Not the Governor Avalor," Ude puts in. "A namesake."

"Welcome to Amenta, and to Voa, and to our capital," continues Irend.

She pauses for Bright to translate all of that, then: "Thank you. My child is Bright Sorrow, who knows the language better."

She waves.

Irend and Ude wave back! "Do you want a tour of the house?" Ude asks.

"Yeah!"

They show her around. It's a four-bedroom, three-bathroom house, very nice, exquisitely clean. They can demonstrate how the appliances work!

She's paying attention, but being reserved, and keeping half her attention on Bright, who wants to touch everything and has every single question about what things do.

They are fine with mostly talking to Bright and answering all her questions!

Once questions are answered and tour is given: "Mom wants to know if you guys wanna talk about us doing the reveal thing now?"
