OT:
"No, professor. I really do
not know," says Mysti.
"Very well. You may go
now," says Theitris from inside his
drawer.
"Goodbye," says Mysti as he walks out the
door.
"Now, I really want to find Merlin. I
haven't talked with him for ages," thinks
Mysti.

Mysti walks into the Eggroom after a
long search for Merlin.
"There you are!" says
Mysti.
"Fwat?" says Merlin through a mouthful of
eggs.
"I've been looking for you," says
Mysti.
"Oh, how are you doing?" says Merlin,
after he swallows.
"I'm fine, but what about you?
I haven't been able to connect for quite a while, you
know," says Mysti.
"You would not believe the
time I have had! Do you want a full account, or an
abbreviated version?" asks Merlin.
"Tell me
everything," says Mysti eagerly.
"Sure. As soon
as I linked out, I knew I was in for something amazing.
The air was clean and moist, there was a smell of cedar
everywhere. You could see these huge trees, with
pathways between. There were little half-circle fungi on
the side of the trees, almost like platforms. They must
have been at least 20 feet in diameter. Then the others
linked in. We took a look around, and Grassie and I
found a
house...

Ever mindful of the welfare of
others, Chuckles58 drops by the Institution with a gift
for Professor Theitris. Having heard a rumor that the
distinguished educator/administrator had suffered a
"clothing malfunction", Chuckles decided to offer a
certain animal pelt to use until his own fur
grew back.
It's the least I could do for all
he does around here. The thankless hours spent ... um
... the courage he instills in the explorers ... um ...
the dignity with which he carries himself and fulfills
the duties of his position.
Not wanting to
disturb the good professor to make the delivery, he
tosses his old skunk hat through the wedgied-open door
and hurried down to DISCO for some anti-bacterial soap
and some good smelling hand
lotion.

A loud noise is heard along the
walkway of the Hood. Clatter, clatter,
clatter, thunk, clatter, clatter,
clatter.
"Good Morning Professor. I brought
you a cart full of these. Hope this helps with the errrr
ahem I mean. I thought you would enjoy the scent."
Chere leaves the cart and runs.

Professor Thietris Squirrel was a bit
distracted this morning for some reason. The naked truth
of it was that he had something weighing heavy on him.
Faux beaver coats can be quite a burden if you're not
used to wearing them.
Deep in thought, the
Professor finally noticed the gift bag from his Secret
Pal. He couldn't think of the occasion, but he opened it
anyway.

... and then I turned them all into pink
frogs! So Grub gave us our stuff, and we decided to
leave an open trade route between our worlds. So then we
linked back. I getting tired of lugging around all of
these papers, I am going to drop them off with the
Professor later," says Merlin.
"Wow. It sounds
like you had a great time. But you know, it really is
time for me to go," says Mysti.
"Where?" asks
Merlin.
"I'm going for a visit to Elkae's Relto.
You wanna come? It's a really nice place," says
Mysti.
"Sure!" says Merlin.
And they link
back to their Private
age.

A
knot suddenly formed in Elkae's stomach. She messed up
and she knew it. Worse still, she had to act fast to
correct the mistake.
<linking
sound>
Elkae materializes near the fountain
and flies down the stairs to the DISCO. She breezes past
Kestryll sitting at the counter and heads down aisle 7.
She grabs something off the shelf and runs back out the
door, muttering something about returning to fill out
the inventory slip.
Up the stairs, around the
corner and up the next flight of stairs she runs. She
slows down near the light switches and looks around to
see who might be looking. The coast is clear so she
proceeds to the Classroom.
As luck would have it,
Thietris is out. She grabs the bottle of after shave off
his desk, leaves something in it's place, and then
immediately links back to her Relto.
"Whew!
That was a close shave!" she said to herself as she cut
herself a piece of angelfood cake.

Professor T had been very suspicious of
the gift pack on his desk. After the previous escapade,
who could blame him? Who was the "secret pal"? He'd
already come across a rather ripe skunk hat, which he
was in two minds about wearing. However, his curiosity
got the better of him and he opened the pack. Hmmm. A
tentative sniff - poof! He sprinkled a bit on his
tender, pale skin. Ooh! Stings a bit. He refastened his
coat and put on his hat (liberally sprinkled with Jovan
Musk). Then he thought about the Mandatory Extraordinary
Meeting he was planning.
OT: Speedy wakes from a small nap,
feeling her stomach yelling for food. She flies out of
her nest to the Egg Room. Someone had shined the door to
that building sometime recently, so Speedy got a good
look of herself in the mirror. She stood back in
surprise. "What the...?" she muttered. Then she
realized that it was time for her to check up on her
other self in the A&C Hotel. [Speedy1]: Hey! I'm
back from Negilahn! [Speedy2]: Oh hey there. How was
it? [Speedy1]: Amazing. Wonderful to fly
through. [Speedy2]: That is what I could tell a
little bit from some of the things I peeped in
on. [Speedy1]: Speaking of which, what is the deal
with the new plummage? [Speedy2]: Oh yeah... about
that... um... [Speedy1]: Tell me! [Speedy2]: Ok! I
scared Grizz while he was asleep and he got back at me
by making me drink some coffee that turned the plummage
yellow! [Speedy1]: So the dream I had last night of
me being yellow and thinking about extra plummage wasn't
just a coincidence?!?!?! [Speedy2]: umm...
no? [Speedy1]: Oh jeez! When is it suppose to be
clean? [Speedy2]: In a few days. I already dropped it
off at the cleaners. [Speedy1]: Good, now please, try
not to do anything foolish with the other plummages. I
don't mind the compliments from everyone, but I don't
want to run out of nice outfits. [Speedy2]: Yep,
understood... maybe we should get more of this color.
Everyone seems to like the purpley color on
us. [Speedy1}: Let's sleep on it...

"Sign here," said Barry
Bahro.
Professor Thietris signed the delivery
form as requested. Barry grinned, handed him a box, and
linked out. Thietris set the box on his desk, took his
letter opener and slit the clear packing tape.
He
pawed eagerly through the white soft styrofoam packing
material. "Popcorn. Popcorn. I thoroughly dislike this
stuff. Bad for the environment. There ought to be a law
.... what's this?"
"From your
Secret Pal," said the card inside.
