[NEXUS] HALO 165: Disturbing the Fishy Neighbors Since Forever

[Beans]

She finally does.
Like that, huh?

[Moofin Bard]

Mel blinks trying to get rid of the dancing lights in front of her eyes.
Yeah that's cool.
Cool. That seems to be her word.

[Beans]

I usually don't play with it unless I've had a little, er...
Ahem.
Herbal relaxant.
Nip fiiiiiiend.

[Quinsar]

He smiles and loves it...

[Moofin Bard]

Mel turns her head to the side and her ears move in confusion.
Whatever do you mean Pesty?

------------------

Jezzie enjoys it too but rather hopes it has raised his body temperature.

[Quinsar]

It has not.
Wow, that was great...

[Beans]

Ahem.
Well.
I'm talking about... nip.
It's not nearly a hard drug, but she's quiet about it anyway.

[Moofin Bard]

Ohhhh. I know what that is. Some teens in the lab use that stuff pretty hardcore so they can zone out and forget things. It's not very cool. She tried it once. It was alright but made her feel weird.

---------

Jezzie is now very worried.
She gets out of bed and gets dressed.
We should get ready.
Not much time until the next part.

[Beans]

It's not bad once you get to know it.
I mostly keep it for when I'm doing art or music. Then it's pretty great.
She nodnods.

[Quinsar]

Cruik nods and dresses as well.
Love you...

[Moofin Bard]

Mel copies her nod nod as well.
So what else is there to do?

---------------

Jezzie kisses him.
I love you too.

Short 20 minute deadtime.

[Beans]

Pesty says things as she deadtimes.
Latin class involves being a filthy oily mopey beatnik, so I gots to get my shleep.

[Quinsar]

He'll give her hand a squeeze.
Let's go...

[Moofin Bard]

Jezzie squeezes his cold hand back and leads him to the room they were in yesterday. Everything is still set up the way it was. Jezzie motions for him to sit down again. This time she has a syringe.

-----------

If BR is online, Mel will start to wander around.
She could bump into someone.

[Quinsar]

He takes a seat, waiting...

[The Bushranger]

Well, Erin happens to be doing some DRD maintiance in the observation deck.

[Moofin Bard]

Jezzie takes his arm and holds it out.
She then fills the syringe with the bright red liquid from the bowl.
It actually looks more like a normal blood color now.
She injects it all into Cruik's bloodstream.
See when we put your blood in it, it broke everything down and found the harmful genes and magic in your DNA. Now that we put it back in you, it'll attack those things to get rid of them. So you'll be pretty sick and weak for a bit.

-------------------------

Mel, a cute little catgirl, well not little, she IS nineteen, wanders out onto the observation deck. What are those? She points to a DRD.

[Quinsar]

O-okay... Will I have to stay in the infirmary?



Deadtime

[The Bushranger]

Erin looks up.
And the white-haired ghost-woman smiles.
"Oh, hi there. These are called DRDs - they help maintain the base. I'm Erin, what's your name dear?"

[Moofin Bard]

Jezzie hugs him.
No I'll take care of you.

-----------

Mel does not look happy about this.
She hates questions. Grrrr!
I'm Melancholy but please just call me Mel.

[The Bushranger]

"...you wouldn't be related to Pestilence aka Pesty would you?" Erin asks, smiling. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mel."

[Moofin Bard]

Well sort of but no. Maybe. It's complicated. We came from the same lab though.

[The Bushranger]

"I thought you might. Have you met her yet? She lives here now," Erin says.

[Moofin Bard]

Yes I did!
She made me dinner and found me a room.
Then we looked at lights.

[The Bushranger]

"Pretty lights?" Erin asks/says, grinning as she knows how Pesty would be mesmerised by them.

[Moofin Bard]

Yes the lights in her lab!
Aaaaand Moofin deadtimes.

[The Bushranger]

Erin giggles cheerfully, nodding.

[Quinsar]

Lisa is around. She's managed to entertain herself with some darts and a dart board...






Cruikshank nods and smiles.

[Beans]

Carrie watches her sadly.

[Quinsar]

She doesn't seem to havwe noticed Carrie, but she is fairly accurate with the darts...
He snake tail swishes.
