>>>>>[I just logged in for a few. Been busy. Will continue to be busy.
Has anyone seen DOA? I'm not too concerned, but I left in a hurry. I'm
just hoping she didn't get mad at me when I blitzed so quickly. Actually,
word got back to me that Buster is looking for me. Crossfire: would you
tell him I'm fine? And tell him that the Paladin really is alright. I
know how he is about that sort of thing. Trevore went ballistic, but I
think he's starting to understand that my friends just might be
professionals too. I was in 'Deep Cover'. Deeeeep cover. Cripes. That
sounds so James Bond. I'm not enjoying this job at all. This is worse
than being a wage-slave, I think. Oh well. Buster will know what I
mean. Just tell him I'll get back when I can. The only reason I'm
making any contact now is cuz he sounded very determined to find me.
(dunno if it was just overprotectiveness or if there's something up) I'll
check in when I can for any personal messages, but I really don't have time
(or the resources) to moniter the system totally. If anything really bad
comes up, someone find me via astral, ok? Ravan knows how. I'll be kinda
tough to find, though.]<<<<<

right away, and he didn't feel done hunting. If he got in trouble that's
his own problem. I'm NOT his babysitter, and I don't think he'd
appreciate you insinuating that I am. Does he really need me around to
take care of him? Silly people. And just for my own amusement, just
exactly would you do to me if he is hurt? (Since he appears to be fine,
I'll ask the question). I seem to recall a 'for your own sake, he'd
better be ok' in there somewhere. Was that a threat?]<<<<<

<<<<<[She went south. *shrug* Dunno what she's involved in, but I know
it's heavy. Said something about having to guard a Royal Pain. She's up
to something with her uncle, that's all I know. She told me to watch for
strange weather patterns... But she didn't say anything about purple
storms. But with Brandy, who knows.
Oh, and yeah, I went to school, but it was only for a couple of
weeks. It was fun and stuff... but kind of restricting. I'm glad to be
back in my deck, though. I thought I was gonna die without it. You guys
have no idea... I mean, you may be used to your decks and all, but I was
raised in mine. It was like having all my limbs cut off, and being
blinded and deaf. Ever read "Johnny got his Gun"? *shiver*
And what kind of drek-head would attempt to revitalize MONICA?
Fool. I assume he's dead. I mean, if one of you didn't get him, the
MONICA clone surely must have. That's what she programmed herself for...
Man, I have got to get myself back in the swing of things. Regarding
school, I didn't really immerse myself in the social life, so I really
don't know how I'd fair with people my own age. Course, college kids
STILL aren't my own age. But I did meet a really neat proffessor...
Kinda cute too. *snicker* Wait'll Brandy hears that...]>>>>>

included a file at the end (compacted) with what we saw at the Agrigen labs.
I've also included some of the furball data that Bonejacker dug up. If you
or your friend know anything about genetically altering paranormals or
taking genes from paranormals and blending them with those or normal farm
animals it would certainly help.

We also need some help with the toxic question we have. Somehow Agrigen
have found a way to incorporate toxic magic into their processes, I have the
serum still from the run if you would like to look at it. I have to admit
it is quite gruesome from the astral and is like nothing I have ever seen
before. ]<<<<<

*****Brandywine, I too would like to view the 'furry thing'. I might also be of
some assistance in how to care for it. I relearned much this summer and have
gained more of an affinity for animals. Where in the Tir are you, about? If
you do not mind I shall also bring along two more friends.*****

this is if they are interested. At the moment neither of them are home so they
do not know of this yet. Though I believe that Dimitri may be at his local
office of one of his companies, doing some work.*****

***** Encyrpt Steel Door IV: Brandywine
>>>>>[ Brandywine is that really you?? N'Ralan mentioned this morning that
we
were supposed to have visited someone this weekend. But since I was away at the
company, he couldn't get hold of me. The other big problem was that he didn't
know where you were at, so he couldn't help out.

Oh you're probably wondering who this is. Its Trevor O'Malley, but now I'm
known as Kulyn Steelwood. I keep on forgetting that taking the handle Dimitri
to keep my anonymity would also mean that people who normally know who I am,
don't. Please try to keep it from the people here who I am, they tend to have a
strong dislike for people of rank in the TIR. There are also people here from
the Tir that I would rather not annoy, since I have always had good dealings
with them before.

Were are you at anyway? I really haven't heard much from you since before my
Rite of Passage were I took the name Kulyn, from my great-grandfather Kulyn
O'Malley, and the name Steelwood in the hopes that I would someday be one the
many living pillars that would make Tir Tairngire so strong. I think that it
may have been a choice with more than a little hubris, but I really do hope to
live up to it.

If you send me a line, I will be there as soon as I can with N'Ralan (Nightfox)
and possibly Tealla in tow (she is also going to UTT). In fact, it may be like
when we were growing up, the group of us always getting underfoot and causing
trouble :) .]<<<<<

>>>>>[Trevor? Jesu'! Yes, come. By god, it'll be nice to see you. Yes,
well, when the only person of high rank anyone around here gets to see is
Solorial (Do you know what's going on w/that, anyway?) they tend not to
get a real good impression. I imagine he was playing on that hatred to
try and get people rallied against me. It well may have worked in the
end. I'm still in the Tir, so I can continue our conversation via private
lines, if you have some sort of private account. I have access to an
account at the University, though I use it rarely. It belongs to a ward
of mine, her name is Sierra. Good kid. But, I suspect she hates it here.
She's the only human attending that school. I fear it's a bit like
Alabama in the 1940's. Segregation and all... There is no bussing from
Seattle to the Tir. Anyway, it's great to talk to you. Oh, and what
name do you want me to refer to you as in private? Dimitri, your
'adult' name, or just Trevor, like always? I can't stomach the
formalities of the Tir, but I'd hate to offend you...]<<<<<

Too
bad we actually don't have furry here yet, I guess they must be having trouble
with getting across border. I will try pulling a few strings tomorrow to see
what I can do.

Oh, and tell Sierra that not all the elves on campus are as stuck up as the ones
she has met. Only most of them are stuck on nobility. Funny how most of our
group turned out so open considering some of the grown-ups that were around.

I should probably be able to tell you whats up tomorrow afternoon.]<<<<<
