Dearest BBN subscribers and interdimensional diplomacy enthusiasts,
I need to tell you about the most formal interview request in BBN’s history.
Not because of the subject matter (though that’s extraordinary). Not because of the location (Aria’s London flat). But because it arrived through proper Galactic Magic Federation diplomatic channels, complete with official seals, treaty references, and signatures that checked out against our most classified databases.
The applicant? “Lady Velara ‘Mittens’ Starwhisper, Retired Intergalactic Diplomat.”
Yes, that Mittens. Aria’s house cat.
The Professional Reveal
What follows is perhaps our most sophisticated interview to date. Not because of advanced technology or cosmic revelations, but because our correspondent Felicity found herself conducting formal diplomatic discourse with a being who insists on proper protocol, maintains impeccable manners, and happens to be a tabby cat sitting regally by a London window.
Mittens—as she graciously allows us to call her—is no ordinary feline. She’s a three-century veteran of the Galactic Diplomatic Corps, specifically assigned to monitor and guide Earth’s newly appointed GMF liaison. Her credentials are legitimate. Her knowledge is vast. Her disapproval of Earth’s casual approach to afternoon tea is palpable.
This Week’s Transmission
In this 13-minute exclusive episode, Felicity discovers the sophisticated infrastructure supporting Earth’s integration into galactic society:
🎭 The Feline Intelligence Network: Every important cat in London has a job. Sir Purrington III monitors Cabinet meetings. Lady Whiskers tracks economic policy at the Bank of England. Professor Fluffington provides academic intelligence from Cambridge.
🏛️ The Real Story Behind Aria’s Success: How a diplomatic professional orchestrated political appointments through what she calls “standard diplomatic negotiations using available leverage.” (The yarn incident at Number 10 was apparently excellent negotiating material.)
📜 Proper Interdimensional Protocol: Learn why treaty negotiations require specific phrasing, why forms must be filed in triplicate, and how challenging trade ministers to ritual combat is considered “career-limiting behavior.”
🌍 Earth’s Evaluation Status: Exclusive insights into how humanity is actually performing in the GMF assessment process. Spoiler: The ratings are surprisingly positive, despite our species’ tendency to discuss sensitive matters in front of “domestic animals.”
The Diplomatic Comedy
The humor writes itself when a being trained in millennia of formal protocol attempts to maintain dignity while inhabiting the form of Aria’s house cat. Mittens approaches every topic with aristocratic bearing, from her strategic orchestration of government appointments to her professional assessment of Boss Kryxar’s salt smuggling operations.
(”When bureaucratic overreach criminalizes essential trade goods, alternative distribution methods become necessary to maintain economic stability,” she explains with perfect diplomatic composure.)
The Hidden World
But beyond the comedy lies something remarkable: the revelation of a vast, sophisticated network of interdimensional operatives ensuring Earth’s peaceful integration into galactic society. Every major decision, every political appointment, every “coincidental” meeting has been carefully guided by professionals who understand both human nature and galactic politics.
Mittens’ maternal pride in Aria’s development is genuine and touching. This retired diplomat, with all her training and experience, has found purpose in nurturing one human’s growth from failed Explorer to confident political leader.
Technical Notes from Oliver
I must mention that conducting this interview required unprecedented formal protocols. Mittens insisted on proper diplomatic introductions, refused to begin without appropriate credentials verification, and maintained professional composure throughout—except when she accidentally began purring after Felicity correctly pronounced her full title.
Our equipment registered new energy signatures during moments of particular pride or diplomatic emphasis. Apparently, aristocratic satisfaction generates measurable dimensional resonance.

The Bigger Picture
This episode reveals something crucial about Earth’s place in the galactic community. We’re not stumbling blindly toward integration—we’re being carefully guided by professionals who understand the complexities involved. Every success, every breakthrough, every moment of progress has been supported by beings who genuinely care about both individual development and planetary success.
It’s reassuring to know that when the fate of your species rests on diplomatic proceedings, you have representation with proper credentials and three centuries of experience.
Even if she does insist on maintaining perfect posture while grooming.
A Personal Note
After this interview, I find myself wondering about every cat I’ve ever met. Are they all diplomatic operatives? Is my own cat filing reports about my breakfast habits? Are there interdimensional implications to choosing the wrong brand of cat food?
Mittens would probably say that such concerns demonstrate humanity’s growing awareness of our galactic responsibilities. She’d also probably suggest I file my questions through proper channels, in triplicate, with appropriate bureaucratic processing time.
Coming Next Week
Our next transmission features Boss Kryxar himself—the notorious Mr. Wiskers—discussing the fascinating world of interdimensional commerce and why salt is apparently the galaxy’s most carefully regulated substance. After Mittens’ diplomatic sophistication, we’re expecting something rather different in terms of... vocabulary choices.
Final Diplomatic Note
Before we close this transmission, Mittens specifically requested that I convey her compliments to our technical staff for maintaining excellent audio quality throughout the interview. She also asked that future communication requests observe proper bureaucratic procedures.
In triplicate, naturally.
Transmitting with diplomatic immunity across the narrative spectrum,
