Kestryll wanders around the
Institution. Vivian trails along behind him. Both are
taking careful notes and snapping off pictures with
their KIs.
K: What about over here?... V:
Um, I think there's too many of them and they are rather
large you know... K: Oh, right. Have to remember I
haven't actually seen them yet... How about up
there? V: Actually I think that would be perfect!
They are Shiloh's collection after, all aren't
they? K: I do believe you're right, Viv. I vaguely
recall seeing that giant squee of her's, what's his
name, George, carrying one around. Having them up there
would place them under her med bay and still be viewable
by everyone. V: I got it noted. Now, what about those
trees? K: I was thinking of just scattering them
around. You know, one there. Two in there. One or two by
the stairs. Make sure we get a good selection. Oh, and
pots... I was thinking those failed transplants from
Gira... V: I don't see why we couldn't. They did dry
out to a hardness like stone and hold water quite
well... K: I take a look at what we've got. See if
there's a few that don't sit at an angle. V: Oh, hey,
thought! How about if we take one of those thinner
crystals for over by the Geology Lab? I thought it might
draw a bit of attention and help spruce it up a
bit... K: I doubt Boatingirl will have a problem with
that... *PING!* K: Just a sec.
Hello? ^^^* Oh, just leave it in the Teledahn
office and I'll get to it as soon as I'm done
here. ^^^ Thank you! V: What was that? K:
Oh, the preliminary research from KesTech is in on the
GZ and KI link. V: Kestryll... How many businesses is
that now? K: Um, Pub, Winery, Catering, Delivery,
Technology... Five with the potential for one or two
more, why? V: Never mind. You're developing a
monopoly on businesses down here you know. K:
Rubbish. Chuckles will still have the market on Security
cornered. V: Kay, Mr. Trump... K: Hey now! I don't
build it, I just... Make it happen. V: Whatever. So,
you starting up that D'ni Internal/External Decorating
Service? K: It's possible. Why? V: Should ask that
Dr. Elkae to sign up as a freelance consultant if you
do. I hear she's doing excellent work on, what's her
name's, office... K: Cordelia, and it's under
consideration. So! If we're done here I think we could
get to work by Monday. V: You? Putting something off
for a few days? Come here, I want to see if you're
running a fever... K: Hey, now! I'm only setting
aside for a few so I can see what the kids at KesTech
have got.
Vivian rolls here eyes and links
out. Kest grins, makes a few more notes and links out
after
her.

He was thining out
loud.
OT:
"What they
should do is put lights up, like the ones in Kirel. And
some banners. And the space above the classroom is so
empty, it could use some plants. And at the entrance to
the control bridge, maybe some of the hanging
weeping-willow type things from Kemo."
He takes
out a peice of paper to write his ideas
on.

The beginning of this story starts here, and continues here.
This is a Story of
Change
I was growing up in the caverns of
Ae'gura, being watched over by my mother who was a
seamstress. When I was about six years old, I saw her
die in a terrible fatal accident in the cavern. Seeing
my mother's death was so tramatic it caused me to
repress the memory of whom I was and changed my life
completely. I was adopted a few years later by some very
loving people, because I was always running away looking
for adventures, they changed my name to
Cruiser.
I did grow to become an explorer,
archaeologist and expert of D'ni restoration, and my
adoptive parents were very proud of me.
While on
a planned expedition aboard the Navis Caelorum, I fell
from the yacht, hitting my head on something unseen in
the mist below. The memory of my past childhood came
flooding back, but my most recent memories were lost. I
did not know who I had been just a few minutes
before.
I was found sometime later on an island
by some Bahro in a small boat, they brought me to the
docks of Ae'gura, where I was medically treated and
released. I happened to walk into the Kahlo Pub that
same evening where I was greeted by Dr. Elkae who
recognized me as her friend Cruiser, realizing that I
had no recollection of her, she knew a problem existed.
She unselfishly took charge of my needs, tended my
wounds, and surrounded me with friends who knew me. With
the love, kindness and care they gave me, my memory
started returning.
The reason for the fall from
the yacht is unknown to me, someday I may remember why
it happened, but for now it's not important.
I
have decided to use my mothers name for me
Natika, the name Cruiser is also a big part of
who I am and I intend to not forget it anytime
soon.
My story will continue as the saying goes,
the end has not yet been written.

Previously on Elkae's
Relto Sitting in his Takotah Alley
security office, little Chuckles58 is again doing
paperwork.
This is difficult work
when you have to sit on the phone book, considering that
the Ae'gura phone book is quite thin. I had to stack a
few linking books along with the phone book. I must be
careful NOT TO open to the linking panel before sitting
down.
He notices his wife's picture on the
desk, then has a terrible thought.
How am I
going to explain this to her?

That's a very moving story, Natika.
Whenever you come to the Institution, you're always most
welcome to sit in this quiet spot in my office, which Elkae
designed for me. Just room for one person and a friend
to talk quietly.
"Hey, who changed the sound system?"
squeaked Dr Warrell, finally noticing his new high pitch
voice. He turned around and saw a mirror and screamed
(like a girl, well young girl) His hair had been changed
to neon blue.
Yes, I noticed Elkae. Only five more posts on this page
(including mine), then there'll probably be a couple
page celebration. Do these folks like any excuse for a
party or
what?
