"Hello, MrD! Yes, I think I'll stay
snuggled up in my new comfy chair
tonight."
Professor T is giving everyone he comes
across a rather penetrating stare.
But what's
this? Squirrel Rogaine? Professor T had never realized
how many specialized products were available for
squirrels. First after-shave, and now hair restorer. Odd
- he'd never come across a single other squirrel who
shaved. Hmmm, it's that "Secret Pal" again.
Rogaine for squirrels? Hopefully whoever
created that product followed the rules on animal rights
and so forth. Is there a comment on the box that no
animals were harmed in the process of making this
product?

A
crate materializes in front of Theitris. On top there is
a note:
Dear Professor,
Here are some
things to lighten your time until you condition
improves. We hope you enjoy them,
Merlin &
Mysti
Inside the crate are several bottles of
vintage Acorn Mead, two boxes of chocolates, scones,
blueberry muffins, and a very, very, VERY large
apple pie.

Ronda awoke from another peaceful sleep.
She yawned mightily and stretched, setting her harness
swinging gently.
In recent days, she had come to
a different sort of terrain on the cavern's ceiling.
Most of the larger stalactites were left behind --
before her lay a kind of wide, shallow bowl, or plain.
The mushrooms and insects were fewer here as well. But
the D'ni pitons continued in their patient, precise
regularity, so Ronda continued as well.
That
afternoon, she happened to be looking up at the lake and
noticed a familiar-looking set of islands.
Her breathing
quickened and she peered ahead into the dimness,
carabining onward a little faster, though not abandoning
all caution. (She didn't want to worry Merlin and
Urudawg unduly, after all.) Soon a jagged darkness
appeared...

pro.
Good MAE folks! (Morning, Afternoon and
Evening due to the global nature of the institute and
its explorers and researchers.)
Hello Professor
Thietris! That is a nasty hair loss problem you have
there. Kind of an extreme exfoliation wasn't it? Did you
take a swim in the cavern lake and forget about it's
acidity? But, look at all the good will that is coming
your way because of it.
Think of it this
way Professor, to paraphrase my RL twin, "God only made
a few good bald *squirrels*, the rest he covered with
hair."
Am sure with the Squirrel Rogaine, you'll
be back to your bushy self in no time. New and
improved.

Cordelia sees RW walk into the
professor's office.
"Oh RW, I haven't seen you
for such a long time. Did you enjoy your adventure that
you went on?" she said rather rapidly, blushing
profusely.
After she managed to compose herself
she offers RW a large mug of cocoa.
"Now then,
this is my special recipe - one part cocoa, one large
part acorn mead and one very large part rum. It should
certainly put hairs on your chest - oh that's a good
thought, maybe the professor should be drinking this in
large quantities"

I'm here too! Cordie, I'm not sure if I
want any of that cocoa after all...
Is it just me or has my
post count leaped since I last checked?

Cordelia, is very good to see you! As long as we are both here
at the same time, perhaps I might trouble you for the
ExP1 ID card I left in your safe keeping. I am not yet
sure how much time I will get to spend in the cavern and
Institute, but it might make it easier for me to come
and go if I had the ID. Would that be OK with you
Cordelia?

"Of course, RW - I'll just go up to my
office to get it for you. I tucked away in a drawer for
safe keeping."
Cordelia rushes from the room,
almost falling over Speedy who had just spread her wings
for a bit of a stretch.
"Sorry Speedy, didn't see
you there. Are you enjoying your cocoa?" she asks as she
runs past and up to her office. She grabs RW's ID card
and rushes back to the professor's office to hand it to
RW.
"Here you are, I think you will find that
everything you gave me is there. I hope this means you
will be around more often?"

I
thought that talking to yourself was a sign of insanity,
but aren't we all, so it makes me perfectly
normal.
OT:
"On second thought, I will
have some cocoa," says Mysti.
"Yes, lets," says
Merlin.

"Oh Cordelia, is very good to see you
again too! " And there it was,
that peculiar dryness in RW's throat everytime he saw
Coredelia
"Coredelia, If I may, I would
really like to purchase one of your umbrellas. My Relto
Rain page seems to be stuck at the moment and I could
really use a brollie. If you would pick it out I would
be most pleased. Also, I seem to have heard somewhere
that it is requirement in order to get a mug of your
special cocoa blend. Something about a safe landing or
other. "

careers of umbrella seller to the rich and famous (of
whom you are one), movie star, and rocket fuel
pioneer.
