Grayling - Wednesday, August 28, 2002 Delye: But Lem.. it isn't right just to leave him here like this. What if his parents find him? / Lem: If the parents have any brains they'll celebrate their new-won freedom with a bottle of wine and a bonfire fueled by his stupid belongings. / Delye: Eee.. He may have been the new face of evil, but I'm sure his parents care about him... I'm sure he wasn't really aware of what he was doing wrong... / Delye: It's... just so sad. So young, and he didn't even have a chance to change his ways... / Lem: Oh, all RIGHT. / Lem: There, he's a necco. Happy now? / Delye: Yay! I get to keep him? / Lem: Mmhmm. I'll leave a note for the parents saying he ran off with gypsies. / Delye: Ooh, I like gypsies n_n / Lem: Now let's get moving and join the others.

How long have you been waiting? / Fola: It's no matter. Here they come. / {Rae and Mid enter. Rae and Lem begin glaring at each other.} / Fern: Well. We're in deep shit now. / Mid: Ah.. Rae.. Please remember the nice non-violent behavior I asked you about..

We ALL look related. / Fola: I think it's time for Viv and I to take our leave. / Morse; They're not going to... blow up anything, are they? / Fern: I don't think so. They consider this sort of thing bonding. / Mid: We have to get Rhodes home, Fern. Can you handle this? / Fern: Don't sweat it... They're not ready to fight for real yet. I think they're both scared out of their minds, frankly... / Morse: God, Rho.. what happened to you... / Smoke: Viv and Fola are gone. We better leave.

Grayling - Saturday, August 31, 2002 *ding dong* / Fern: Don't use the bell, idiot, I have the key someplace.. / Smoke: You never remember your key. / Fern: Sez YOU.... Mid, do you have yours? / Mid: Yes, right here.. one sec.. / Morse: Hold on a minute--Where are we?! We were just outside the hospital! / Fern: It's called "teleportation" kid. This is our house. / Morse: But WHERE are we?! This isn't even my TIME zone! / Fern: *thud* OW! GODDAMNIT! WHO put this WALL here?! / Mid: Oops... Smoke, get the light... / Morse: It was a simple enough question.. I'm tired and hungry and cold, I want to go HOME! / Mid: Eee... It's okay, Morse, we need to keep you around until the trial is over -- / Morse: Trial?! What is going ON?! / Rae: Pus-snorting scumbag. / Lem: Larvae munching savage. / Rae: Oh, REAL good comeback. / Delye: Mid, can I have pudding? n.n / Mid: Yes, yes, all the pudding you want... Stop FIGHTING you two! / Fern: My nose-bloody hell--fucking wall-- / Mid: Well you've lived here 5,000 years I'd think you'd know where the walls are by now! / Fern: I DO know where they are ¬_¬ This one.. attacked me. / Mid: Delye! Don't EAT that! / Delye: But I LIKE wax fruit ;_; / Morse; Why is it so dark in here..? AAH! Something brushed my leg! / Lem: Better put some newspaper down. I just KNOW Rae can't be housetrained. / Rae: Your MOM isn't housetrained. / Lem: SHUT UP! / *CRASHtinkletinkletinkle* / Mid: Oh my god.. was that the Vemerian vase?! Cal is going to KILL us! / Fern: No problem then, because we're already dead. / Mid: Haha, smartass. / Cal: Should have changed the locks when I had the chance.

Grayling - Sunday, September 1, 2002 Morse: Smoke, you seem relatively sane. Can YOU tell me what's going on? / Mid: I'm sorry for ignoring you, Morse, there's always a debacle when we get home. We would like to keep you with us for a little longer so your testimony about your cousin can be offered to our council, who'll then decide how his recovery process should be carried out. In the meantime, we'd be honored to have you stay here. / Morse: Uh..m.. / Morse: It looks.. charming. / Fern: *yaaawwwwn* / Morse: I sure hope you're not thinking I'll be the Snow White to your seven dwarves. / Mid: Oh, good heavens, no. We would need a bottomless pit for all this stuff. I just cleaned last week... It's like this naturally. / Fern: Huh? What? Dwarves? We keep dwarves now? They better not have gone in my room. / Mid: It was just a joke, Fern. / Fern: ...Oh. Yeah, I knew that.

Grayling - Monday, September 2, 2002 Morse: Pardon me for asking.. but what IS this thing? / Mid: Aheheh, don't be scared, that's just a nillit. Cal has a strange habit of welcoming strange creatures into our house. They come here because no one else will take them in. / Mid: There are lots of nillits, most of the time they're hiding in the walls. They're scared of light, so if you don't want them to bother you, you can just turn the lamp on. / Fern: Conveniently, Mid is leaving out the bit about the little bastards crawling into your bed at night and sucking your bodily fluids out with their fingers. / Mid: X_X Fern's exaggerating, Morse, they are equipped with a natural anaesthetic so you don't feel a thing. They're quite friendly, loveable animals, really.. / Fern: Yeah, especially when they find someone unconscious or injured. They don't stop feeding until everything's gone, then. / Mid: -_- Fern. / Fern: What? / Nillit: :3 *hop* / Cal: *sigh* Hello, my darlings.. What are you doing to poor Morse this time? / Mid: Fern's scaring her. / Fern; I am not! You're not scared, are you, kid? / Cal: So sorry you have to put up with them, my dear. Thank you for cooperating so beautifully. Without you, this endeaver would never have gone so smoothly. *chu* / Morse: Oh.. I .. u-um... thank you..

Grayling - Tuesday, September 3, 2002 Morse: Cal, I can't thank you enough for the kindness you've shown me.. I don't think I've ever been treated as well as this by an adult or.. anybody, really. But I'm hoping that, as an adult, you can also understand how.. um.. Confused and scared I am right now. / Morse: It's not to say it's because of you or anything. It's just.. I'm only a kid, I've barely been out of my home town in my entire life... and now suddenly I'm in the company of ageless beings in another world. / Morse: You're my friend and I trust you.. but... this is getting harder and harder for me to swallow.. all these weird people, appearing and disappearing, fighting, it's all so confusing. I barely know what's going on, and whether I'm doing the right thing / Cal: I understand completely, Morse. I'm sorry we haven't been more tactful with you, but necessity makes us hasty. I cannot promise absolutely nothing will happen to you, but you can rest assured that you will never be in serious trouble / Cal: Remember, as a mortal, you're special, protected. It's we elementals who have to put up with the evil villains and so forth, and we're quite used to being torn to pieces and such. It can even be fun at times ^_^ / Morse; .... I'll try my best to find that comforting.

Grayling - Wednesday, September 4, 2002 hours later... / Lem: Prognathic tard. / Rae: Tyrannical jackass. / Fern: Are they still at it? / Mid: Yes.. Everyone else is in bed. They can't fight all night, can they? I set up a bed for Rae but I don't know if he'll want-- / Ding Dong / Mid: Who's that at this hour? I'll get it.. / Mid: Darcy! Are you all right? You're so pale... / Darcy; I just need to feed, that's all. I'll be fine. Is Lem here? / Mid: Yes, over here in the living room... / Lem: Darcy... You-- / Darcy: You haven't slept or eaten in days. Let's go home. / Rae: {thinking} What's this...? Little brother has a boyfriend, hmm?
http://grayling.arborwin.com/cgi-bin/autokeenlite.cgi?date=20020904
Grayling - Thursday, September 5, 2002 Mid: Rae... Are you coming to bed now? / Rae: Yeah yeah.. just a second.. / Mid: ...Okay... I'll wait for you, then.. / Rae: {oblivious] Mm. / Rae: Wait.. what does he mean, he'll wait? / Rae: {dashes off} *zip* / Cal: {sitting on the couch with Fern} Somehow, this is not what I expected to find myself doing the first night in several millenia that I'm caoable of being alone. / Fern: Sex. Ew.

Grayling - Friday, September 6, 2002 back at Lem's apartment, in Tower / Lem: Are you all right? / Darcy: Yes... You? / Lem: Of course. The situation's in control...at least for the moment... / Darcy: I got the story from May, Lem. I would've expected you and Rae to have blown up the universe or whatever by now. I'm surprised..glad, but surprised. / Lem: I don't want to blow up the universe, HE does. Well, actually, I don't have a bloody clue what he wants. / Darcy: So your assumptions about your brother were wrong... / Lem: My assumptions were PRACTICAL. I just wanted to protect Faidia, dammit. I don't see what's so wrong about that. / Darcy: You should try to get along with your brothers. / Lem: Yeah yeah.. / Darcy: Cal didn't do anything to you, Lem...he cares about you. / Lem: You think I don't know it? I can't make it better, Darcy. / Lem: Nothing's right, not even the people have any confidence in me anymore... I'm all washed up. Too many mistakes. I've cut off all of my supports without even realizing it. / Darcy: Lem..Lem don't talk that way...It's not like you at all. Where in the world are you getting these ideas from? / Lem: I'm dying.

Grayling - Saturday, September 7, 2002 Darcy: Now you're just being melodramatic. You can't die, you're elemental of LIFE. / Darcy: You all usually complain that you've been alive too LONG. / Lem: My power's draining out into the planet...all the living things are sucking me dry... I didn't begrudge them anything, that's why I'm running out of energy. In a couple centuries, at this rate, I'll be too weak to keep a physical form... / Lem: It's ironic. Cal gave me everything, and I blew him off. I give my people everything...and now they're blowing me off. I don't regret it, though. I wouldn't have had it any other way. I wanted the very best for them. But I won't be able to keep going now. I'll flicker out. / Lem: And this boy, Rhodes... Nothing good will come of him. I have a bad feeling... / Darcy: Lem...please come to bed. Forget about that for now. / Darcy: Quiet, you. You're not going anywhere. I'll make sure of it. / Lem: Heh... Darcy...

Grayling - Sunday, September 8, 2002 Elemental: Oh how SWEET. They fixed you up a bit. Well, it's no matter. / Elemental: This place we're in..it's a lab, not a hospital. In their basement...how curious. / Elemental: Because you're an ignorant mortal, you probably think these people will SAVE you. They're a lot like me, actually...But worse. They're all killers, you know. They have a nice little facade going here, but I won't be fooled a second time. / Rhodes: go away Suti.. please... / Suti (Elemental): Now who's giving orders? I told you not to do that. It pisses me off royally. / Rhodes: I'm tired.. please let me sleep.. / Suti: You think I'M not tired?! I have to crawl around in your FLIMSY little body like a SNAKE on its BELLY and YOU'RE tired?! / Suti: You should be grateful I didn't have you kill your snivelling little family... I should have. But that would reduce me to these Faidians' level.. they killed my only friends and left me to ROT. / Suti: Even a worthless waste of energy like you should have a sense of justice. / Rhodes: I don't want to hurt anyone... / Sut: That's just too fucking bad.i

Grayling - Monday, September 9, 2002 Grayling arc 3 / Defrocked / the next morning! / Morse: Guh. I wonder what time it is ... / Morse: Need to go to the bathroom... / Morse: Think it's that door across the hall... / Door: KEEP OUT / Morse: Hello...? Is anyone in h--- / Fern-in-a-towel / Delye-in-a-tub / Morse: Aaauuhhh.

Grayling - Tuesday, September 10, 2002 Morse: Oh my GOD! I didn't even think to KNOCK! Ohmygodohmygodohmygodohmygod I'm such an IDIOT! / Rae: Don't sweat it, little girl. You're not the first person to be blinded by Fern's appearance. / Morse: ....Wha? No.. that's not at all what I'm worried about--it's just--embarrassing--Are he and Delye--erm--you know-- / Rae: *chuckles* Hell no.. Fern is... how shall I put it... "inactive." He hasn't shown romantic interest in anybody for centuries. He's incapable of it, no doubt. / Rae: I would be the same, if I were as short and funny looking as him. / Rae: Fern is a JOKE, not an elemental. / *CLICK* / Delye: Naked is fun! / *OPEN* / Fern: *SQUINCH SQUINCH* / Fern's hair: *PUFF* / Rae: Hah, no amount of primping will ever wipe that ugly mug off your puss, Ferny. / Morse: Mr. Fern...I'm so sorry. / Fern: Fuck. You. / Morse: ....My intent was to make him feel better, not worse. / Rae: Don't worry. He's in a permanent state of disgruntlement. Makes no difference to him.

Grayling - Wednesday, September 11, 2002 Cal: Okay, I give up. Why are we all in the hallway in our underwear? / Morse: I was just looking for the bathroom... / Cal: Oh, I see, my dear. You'll probably want to use the one upstairs. It has a lot more privacy. You'll find towels and things in the little closet. / Cal: Anything else you need, simply ask, and I'll see what I can do. Mid's making breakfast, so please come down to the kitchen when you're done. / Morse: Thank you, Cal ... / Cal: ... As for you, Rae, I'm guessing you spent a fun-filled evening. / Cal: I suppose you've forgotten about me already, hmm? / Rae: Feh, silly, you can't pass for jealous even when you try. / Cal: SHOULD I be jealous? / Rae: Mm...Maybe just a little, for spice. But don't get sad. I forbid it. / Rae: I think I'm enjoying this entire "freedom of choice" thing. You're ALL my bitches now. / Cal: Oh..I feel so..so USED....However, what about Fern and Smoke? / Rae: .....They don't count. / Cal: How convenient. / Rae: Isn't it, though? / FREE TALK / Inquiring minds want to know, Fern. What do YOU think of Cal and Rae's 'ship? / Fern: Where other people put their -----ing ----- is none of my ----ing --------- business, so ------ the ----- off. / ......THANK YOU FERN. / Mid? / Mid: Well, technically, they're not biologically related. I mean, how could they be, their parents are abstract concepts embodied by celestial events... And they really are cute together, and terribly devoted. So, why not? / Uh.. Lem, as the youngest sibling, what do you think? / Lem: Why do you think I disowned them? / Lem: They're disgusting and should be ashamed of themselves. / Ooohkay... What about you, Smoke? / Smoke: *sigh*

Grayling - Thursday, September 12, 2002 Mid: Delyyye, don't play with your food. / Delye: Meef. / Mid: We don't have enough food to feed everyone, Cal. / Cal: Don't worry. We're going go to the store later. / Mid: I can make everyone toast, I guess... / Fern: Mouse omellette... Mm... / Delye: *waaaa* / Rae: Gooooood morning. / Rae: I thought I'd start out today helping halflings, Cal, so I'm heading off to Kurhe right after breakfast. / Cal: You are NOT going to Kurhe alone. / Rae: What the hell are you talking about? I'm a big boy, I can take care of myself. / Cal: For everyone's protection, including your own, someone should come along. There's still a lot of hatred and bad air around there. Fern knows Kurhe better than any of us. He was part of the investigations years ago. Take him along. / Rae: Oh for crying out loud... all right... / Cal: And at least make some sort of plan before going... / Rae: Oh Cal, you can be so damn stodgy... / Mid: Ulp. / Fern: ¬_¬

Grayling - Friday, September 13, 2002 Fern: I know you have a sick sense of humor, Cal, but this is bordering on the ridiculous. Rae and I are not exactly a match made in heaven. / Cal: I REALLY don't appreciate the whining right now, Fern. I'm juggling several issues at once at the moment and the last thing I need is your guff. / Cal: You're going with Rae to Kurhe and that's FINAL. Just do what you're told for once and SHUT. UP. / Fern: Yes sir. Sorry sir. / Cal: hmph. / Lem: Ah, ever the obedient lapdog, that Fern. / Cal: What are you doing here. / Lem: Don't get your pants in a twist. I'm just dropping off some paperwork. / Lem: This is all the information I have at the offices on the Kurhe cases. I thought Rae might need them. / Lem: I may have done some horrible things in the past, but an atrocity like Kurhe was NEVER on the agenda. / Cal: Well...I'm sure we can find some use for these. / Lem: You know... / Lem: You might try being a little nicer to Fern. You know he adores you. I've seen him argue for hours in your support, and then have to return home to... this. / Lem: There's something wrong there. / Cal: That's pretty strange, coming from you. Who was it not so long ago who insisted so vehemently that Fern's training be increased? You even helped. Rae and I weren't the only ones torturing him. You called him an ignorant, mortal-brained savage, if I remember correctly. / Cal: You wanted him brainwashed, and that's what we did. What, you've changed your mind? / Lem: Yes..well..It's becoming increasingly apparent that I'm wrong about a large number of things. I don't like Fern, but that is one powerful elemental you have there. We've beat him into submission, but he's going to wake up and realize what he's capable of one of these days. The only thing stopping him is the fact that he respects you beyond all other things. / Cal: Though I'm sure some part of me deep down appreciates your attempt to communicate, Lem, right now it seems to me you're doing what you've always done and telling me how to control my own secondary, which is something I don't appreciate. At all. / Cal: Now get out of my house.

Grayling - Saturday, September 14, 2002 Mid: Cal...? / Cal: Go away, Mid. / Mid: Just was wondering what's wrong... / Mid: You haven't snapped at Fern like that in a while... / Mid: Cal..talk to me..you look horrible... / Cal: Horrible? HORRIBLE? What's unusual about that? That's how I always look--horrible, ugly, skinny-- / Mid: Oh stop whining... you look awful because you don't take care of yourself. / Mid: !!!! CAL! Is that scar opened up again?! Why didn't you TELL me?! / Cal: I don't have to tell you a goddamned thing. I can't stand the way you all flutter around me when I'm injured. Go away. / Mid: Bite me, why don't you. Jeez, Cal, you're bleeding all over... Does Rae know about this? / Cal: Of course not... / Mid: You are the most stubborn... Ugh, it looks like you just got it. / Mid: This happened because of Rae, right? / Cal: Mmh. / Mid: Well, come on then. To the infirmary. / Cal: NO! / Mid: Yes! / Cal: NO. / Mid: YES. You big baby. Do you ENJOY snapping at Fern? / Cal: .....no..... / Mid: Then do as I say.

Grayling - Sunday, September 15, 2002 Fern: Hrm... / Fern: What color would you say would look good on a man with pink hair and black fur, Basil. / Fern: ...uh... No.. Neon green might be a bit loud. Let's stick with classic black... / Rae: Good grief, Fern, are you still talking to that toy snake of yours? / Fern: You're welcome to try and shut him up. Stick around, I'll find a shirt for you. / Rae: Pleh, thank you, I'd rather not... / Fern: You can't wander around shirtless all the time... / Rae: Why? What's the matter with it? / Rae: I suppose you're just jealous, hmm? You wouldn't look so bad yourself, you know, with a few.... adjustments. / Rae: Just get rid of the palm tree hair.. maybe go for the "Pippy Longstocking" look. People just LOVE that. / Fern: What are you gonna do next, break my glasses, twist my arm until I say uncle? Grow up already, Rae. If we're going to take this mission together we might as well make an attempt to be civil to each other, all right? / Rae: OOoooh. / Rae: So you DO like me, Fern. Why didn't you say so sooner? / Rae: Loosen up, Fern. / Fern: Wh..What the hell are you DOING?! / Rae: Jeez, the COUCH is more satisfying to hump than you are.. / Fern: Get OFF me! / Smoke: Is everything all right up there? / thmp thmp thmp / Fern: Smoke?! Yes! Yes, everything's FINE! ... ... ... ... ... .. NO! Get OFF! OFF OFF OOOOOOOOOOOOFFFFF! / *THUD* / Rae: Whee! Damn, you're feisty... / Rae: Smoke, you should have SEEN Fern fondling me! The man has no SHAME! / Fern: S...S...S... WHAT?!! NO! I didn't FONDLE ANYbody, YOU-- YOU--

Grayling - Monday, September 16, 2002 Mid: "What was all that noise? Were you teasing him again?" Rae: "Guess I went a little far..." Mid: "For crying out loud, Rae..." / Fern: "I'm an idiot. It's my fault, there's no worries. / I shouldn't take it so seriously. It was only a joke. It doesn't mean anything. I'm the one who's fucked up. It's my fault." / Fern: "I don't let go of anything. If I did, like them... / There'd be no problem at all." / Fern: "I really fucking hate being touched that way." Smoke: "I know." / Fern: "You and I.... / We're not allowed to let go of anything."

Holy: "Of course." / Holy: "We're some of Lemanerial's first projects, actually. We're more than 5,000 years old, I lost count a long time ago..." God: "Oor dee signs were lucking." Holy: "Lacking. We didn't live long." Morse: "Oh...." / Holy: "Savior was supposed to be a study in symmetry. Well, you can see for yourself it didn't turn out right. His back leg was worthless because the bones never developed, and his head was so heavy his neck collapsed and he suffocated." / Morse: "That's horrible..." Holy: "It's not so bad. He didn't have much of a nervous system, so he didn't feel it. / We make better ghosts than living things, believe me." / God: "Nuff talk! Time for basement! Wunna see where imps live?"

Ture allollowed. / Morse: Are there animals down there? / holy: Why? / Morse: I'm not much of an animal person. / Holy: But you ARE an animal.

Morse, we've been looking for you. / Morse: Sorry... / Morse: Did you really kill them, like God said? / Fern: Mmm. Surprised you could tell them apart. They rotate the names. / Morse: Why do they call themsleves that? / Fern: Read books, thought taking those names would make them important. They have no idea what they mean. / Morse; That's sad... / Fern: Pfft. They're as happy as they'll ever be. We may be in the same place, but for them, it's heaven. Come with me if you want pudding.

Grayling - Friday, September 20, 2002 Cal: Heh. Silly me. I should have know you'd be up at this hour. / Cal: You always were a night owl. / Cal: Like me. / Cal: So. / Cal: What time are you leaving tomorrow? / Fern: Whenever Rae wakes up. We're only going for a brief visit... The trial is t he day after tomorrow. We have preparations to make. / Cal: Has the boy responded at all? / Fern: Mid worked on it.. nothing. The elemental is blocking his mind. / Cal: Well... / Cal: We'll figure it out. He can't stay silent forever. He must want something, otherwise, he wouldnt be inside the boy. It'll clear up somehow. / Fern: Cal... / Fern: The girl... as pleasant as having her around is... if she gets to know more about us... it won't be so pleasant anymore. / Cal: As I'm well aware. / Cal: When this is done with.. I'll erase her memories... Send her back home. It'll be like it never happened. / Fern: How many times have we said that before, and been completely wrong. / Cal: Far too many. But for mortals, it works.

Grayling - Saturday, September 21, 2002 Cal: Aren't you going to wake him up? / Rae: Not me. You do it. / Cal: Why me? I'm not going. / Rae: Even I know a sleeping Fern is a considerable force to contend with. / Cal: Well, all right. Smoke will wake him up. / Rae: How's he do it? / Cal: Squeeze his patella. That always drives him crazy. / Rae: Oooh. / Fern: AAAAH! / Fern: Grah... I wish you wouldn't do that. / Smoke: Then get up in the morning. / Fern: Ghrrmmph... / Fern: Oh yeah, we're going to Kurhe today! All right then, I'm in the mood to burn down some stuff... fight mutants... And other Kurhe-ish activities. / Smoke: Glad to see you're enthusiastic. / Fern: We must find our kicks somehow. Get Morse and Rhodes some branch robes while we're gone. / Smoke: Will do. / Mid: Sorry Rae... the only coat I could find that fits you has a fur collar... / Rae: That's all right... If I have to wear so much clothes, it might as well be the skins of a bunch of innocent small animals. / Mid: Should have known you'd think that... / Rae: You worried about me? / Mid: Pff. Don't flatter yourself. / Rae: We'll only have a look around, then come back. I want to see that the place is dead with my own eyes. / Mid: Just be careful... And GET ALONG with Fern. / Rae: Oh yes, whatever pleases you, master.

Grayling - Sunday, September 22, 2002 Rae: What IS this, Hickville? / Fern: Speak lightly of the hicks. / Fern: Because they complained, the corrupt industry around here got shut down. Of course, they could have said something sooner... Most of the people are gone now, though. This place is toxic. / Rae: FUCK it's cold. / Fern: Understand why we wanted you to wear a coat now? Hm. I razed most of the warehouses, but then Lem took over... said he'd take care of everything. Instead of actually cleaning up he just shut everything down and locked it up... swept it under the carpet. This is one of the only labs left... Everything's falling apart now... People must have come and scrapped most of the equipment. Illegally, of course. / Rae: They did medical experiments in this shithole? / Fern; Sure.. They were just halflings, after all. / Fern: All of the cages are gone... but they used to be stacked up to the ceiling. / Rae; Lots of bodies? / Fern: Yeah, but there were worse things still alive. / Fern: Like this... / Fern: Damnit... Shouldn't have trusted Lem to clean this up properly... / Rae: Shhhii...t... What IS that... / Fern: Sadly, the guess of the scientist who made it is probably as good as ours.

Grayling - Monday, September 23, 2002 Fern: The record room should be over here somewhere.. Wait there.. / Rae: Right-o.. / *creeeeeak* / Fern: Oh... shit.. / Rae: Ugh. Cockroaches should never reach that size. Nor should they be scuttling around in the middle of winter at subzero temperatures... The more I think about it, the more disturbed I am. Fern? Come look at this - / *snik* / Rae: Fern? What was that noise? / Rae: Stop fucking around, Fern. Where are you? / Rae: There you are.. My ears are gonna freeze off. Why don't we call it a day? Fern? / Rae: Hello? Sammatter? Fern, c'mon. Don't go catatonic on me. / Rae: Fuck! Hey! HEY! None of that! No fainting!

Grayling - Tuesday, September 24, 2002 Rae: Fern... Fern...wake up... Fern... Fern... FERN! / Fern: WHAT! WHAT! M'AWAKE! I'M AWAKE! / Rae: So nice of you to wake up. / Fern: What.. the hell.. Where... / Rae: I brought you back home, dumbass. You fainted. There wasn't much else TO do. / Fern: Oh. Well... thank you for not molesting me while I was asleep... / Rae: If you're asleep, what fun is there in it? / Fern: Haha. / Rae: Correct me if I'm wrong, Fern, but you really cracked up back there. I dunno about what, but... / Rae: That warrants some attention. At the very least, Cal should be told his secondary isn't functioning properly. / Fern: Don't you DARE breathe a WORD of this to Cal, you filthy son of a bitch. This is NONE of your business. / Rae: Sheez, fine then. Not like "Fern is a fucking nutball" is news to him, anyway. / Fern: I need a drink. I know I left a bottle back here somewhere...

Grayling - Wednesday, September 25, 2002 Rae: Back so soon? / Rae: Since Fern told me not to tell Cal, I'll tell you, so YOU can tell Cal. He went bonkers in the Kurhe lab and fainted. / Mid: Uh oh. Well..I'll tell Cal, and give him a checkup. Thanks for letting me know... / Mid: ... I'm surprised with you. You're being such a good boy. Turned a new leaf? / Rae: Just trying to make things easier for you and Cal. / But I've done enough good deeds for a month by now. I had better get some sins in before the day's out, or people will talk. / Rae: ... What's going on here, a barbershop? / Morse: Smoke had us try on our trial robes. / Smoke: A little loose, but they should do. / Rae: Wha? Since when do we need robes for anything? / Cal: I'm sorry, Rae... / I forgot to tell you about this...it's a tradition now..to wear your branch's color during formal gatherings. / Rae: Jeez, how pretentious. / I remember a day when clothes of ANY kind were optional. "Formal?" Heh. Don't tell me--Lem made this up. / Cal: Well...yes... / Smoke: Rae, here's yours.

Grayling - Thursday, September 26, 2002 Cal: All right, before any of you goes off gallivanting again, everyone come here and sit for a meeting. We have important things to discuss about tomorrow. / Rae: Aw, poop. / Rae: I don't see how there's anything to discuss. This whole thing seems pretty straightforward to me. / Cal: Rae... Shush... / Cal: Mid, could you give us a report of your findings so far as to Rhodes' condition? What are our options? / Fern: Hrrumph. / Mid: I'm pretty sure the chaos elemental is fused with him completely. If Rae absorbs the power of the chaos elemental, Rhodes will die. Technically, he's already dead, but there's a possibility we could replace his life energy so he could resume his life as though nothing had happened... / Mid: However.. the shock might be too much for him, so he wouldn't make it no matter what we did. And I have a feeling that the elemental is keeping him hostage, to a degree--he'll hurt the boy if we try anything. / Rae: Big deal. / Rae: If the boy is the only thing we lose to this guy, we're LUCKY. He's as good as dead already. / Rae: Let me take the energy. There's no other alternative. The boy will be free of the pain, and the elemental'll be history. Problem solved. / Cal: ...I'm afraid it isn't as simple as that. / Rae: Whaddaya mean? What's stopping me? / Cal: Rhodes is Faidia's wiwen. / Rae: ...Oh. Well then. That DOES put a damper on things, doesnt it. / Smoke: *squish* / Mid: Did you just say what I think you said? / Morse: Excuse me... but what's a wiwen?
