Cordelia has, by now, got over her flap
and is on her way down to the DISCO to have a chat with
Grizz.
On her way she bumped into the Professor who was on his for a day out
in Eder Kemo.
"Hi Professor, enjoy your round"
she said smiling to herself and thinking that she would
really like to join him if she didn't have so much work
to do.

Getting a firm grip on
himself, Grizz hauls himself up to his feet. Then he
catches Cordelia's post. Stay tuned folks! Will Grizz
ever get back on his feet again?

Cordelia walks into the DISCO and finds
Grizz sprawled on the floor laughing
"Hello Grizz,"
she says offering him a hand to haul him up. "Don't you
think the Professor looks very dapper in his outfit
today?"
Grizz bursts into fits of laughter once
more and Cordelia has to wait until he has managed to
control himself again.
"Oh by the way, I meant to
leave you a note. I helped myself to a Badger Fetish the
other day when you were away. It's for Elkae. I wanted
her to have it while she is in prison but Kestryll, who
was supposed to have delivered it, seems to have gone
and lost it somewhere. I do hope you have some more in
stock just in case I need to send her another
one."

Veronica
mumbles under her breath about having to serve herself.
Some bad habits are hard to break, truly an unfortunate
thing for Veronica.
"Where is the sugar?!" She
yells just as loud, not realizing that Grizz and
Cordelia are now standing right in front of her. They
both grimace at the same time.
As morning comes, Chuckles58 steps
out of his Takotah Alley Office for a breath of 'fresh'
air (the office appears to have halitosis since the
distant ting tree was delivered from WHOOPS). He notices
an orange cone sitting near the front door. Beside it
was a bent up box.
My shoes! The cones must
have rescued my shoes from the hole Almech had fallen
into. I'd better get these to Cordelia without delay.
Plus I need to pick up a few office supplies (air
fresheners) from DISCO.
He links into the
Institution with the box. He walks over to DISCO, sets
the box down inside the front door while he heads off
for the little pine tree deodorizers. When he returns to
make his purchase, he forgets all about the box. Leaving
the store, he can't remember why he had come, so he
stopped by the Egg Room for breakfast before he linked
back to his office to install the air
fresheners.
A little later, Veronica was
busy trying to figure out where the latest shipment of
footwear was to be displayed in DISCO.
"I've
heard of faded jeans, and jeans sold already with holes,
but these shoes are disgusting. And I thought I kept up
with fashion trends. But who am I to question, if Grizz
ordered them, I'll stock them. High fashion
indeed!"

are the donuts?" - Atrus (realMyst) Save URU Live
Whilst Cordelia and Grizz are standing
chatting in the DISCO, she happens to spot Veronica
putting out some very disgusting looking trainers on the
display stand.
"Grizz, I didn't know you'd gone
for a line in second-hand shoes," she said with a tone
of disdain in her voice.
Grizz, who was otherwise
occupied, seemed not to know what she was talking about
so Cordelia decided to change the subject.
"So
just where was it you disappeared to the other day then
Grizz, you were gone for
hours."

Before Grizz knew what happened, a
few used sofas and a dining room table were dumped
outside of DISCO. Apparently word got out that Grizz was
now an ambassador for GOODWILL with the Bahro.
---------------------------- "Where are the
donuts?" - Atrus (realMyst) Save URU Live
Grizz interrupts Veronica in her work of
setting up the footwear displays.
"Come and have
another cup of coffee," he says. He pours a cup, puts
in the sugar he knows she likes, then hands her a
chocolate spoon to stir with. He sits beside her on the
other stool behind the counter, with his own
mug.
"Nica, I told you that I promised the Bahro
I'd do everything I could to improve relations between
them and humans. I'm going to set up an organization to
work for that. I've placed an ad in all the papers
around for a director. Those ads come out today, so
there may be an applicant or two in the DISCO today.
Nothing much to worry about, but just be sure, if I'm
not here, that every applicant leaves a
resume."
He pauses for a moment, looking around
the store.
"I think I was totally wrong about
thinking the cavern was no place for fancy clothes, at
least in the hood here. It gives the place an up-scale
feeling, and I've noticed that others are paying more
attention to how they look too. Want to thank you for
that, and to apologize for not understanding that part
of your personality in the beginning. And you've really
got the DISCO looking good. You're a hard worker. I knew
I was right about you from the moment I first talked to
you. Can't tell you what a relief it is to have someone
reliable to manage this
place."

Veronica feels remorseful for having
such a bad attitude, especially after the positive
reinforcement Grizz offers to her almost every
day.
"Grizz, these shoes are repulsive.
They reek of Ae'gura alleyways and...oh, I just cannot
identify what this odor might be. How about you?"
She holds one of the shoes directly under Grizz's
nose.
