King of the Diamond Dogs.

It's been a very long time since Janet Ford has visited the Nexus. So long, in fact, that she can't remember the last time she was here. She'll still be somewhat recognizable to anyone who might have met her the first time—she's grown her hair out to shoulder-length now, has a wedding band on her finger and is several years older, but she still has the suit and the body language of an FBI agent. An FBI agent who's gotten promoted to deputy chief of her unit and still hasn't accepted that transition. Janet spent fifteen years taking orders from a boss whom she loved and now she is the boss. Or one of them, because her partner Michael Davis is actually the one in charge.

She suspects that's why her door might have reappeared in her life. Her entire world has changed and even though it's settled there's a constant awareness that nothing will ever be the same again. The dynamic of the team with her and Michael at the top is very different from when Anthony Brennan was the only leader, and the two of them are semi-regularly continuing to second-guess themselves because they want everything to stay perfect. Brennan once snarked that he knew more than some other agents had forgotten and now they're starting to think it wasn't a a joke. Plus, one of their colleagues has just left to take her own promotion and now there's a new agent everyone is having to get used to. Which is Janet's fault because she offered him the job.

But if work is chaotic, at least she has the home life she built for herself to keep her from completely going crazy. Janet—with Michael's insistence—has continued to put effort into having a personal life. The wedding was obviously the most important part of that, not only accomplishing the goal she had wanted but also silencing her mother's complaints that she was nearly 40 and hadn't settled down yet. But she's still got hobbies that don't involve chasing white-collar criminals, like her no longer secret acting hobby. She just didn't think that stepping into other dimensions or whatever this is (she never bothered to totally figure it out) was going to get put on her schedule between work shifts and dance lessons.

She thinks the Nexus is giving her a different kind of break from juggling everything. The only problem is that she doesn't know if anyone she recognizes is even still here, or what she's supposed to do after her very long absence. The entire place could've changed while she was gone. Or it might not have changed at all. She decides to do the sensible thing and simply ask and see who answers.

"Can anyone fill me in on what I've missed in the last, um, has it been years?"

[ OOC: Bringing Janet back after an extended period of inactivity to see if there's still anyone interested in playing with her. I've been away dealing with severe health and family issues, the latter of which are still going on, so I apologize in advance for any slow tags and would just ask that replies not include any medical stuff, and I will be omitting anything like that from Janet's responses as well. Since it's been so long since she's played here, please feel free to ask for clarification or more details. I also have her biography here for anyone who hasn't played with her yet. Also apologies for this wall of text but happy to be back! ]
