[Myitt]

"Hey man, Ossanlin may not be normal, but he's my friend," says Myitt, going over to Ossanlin.  Clearly Thordon wasn't a threat...yet.  "Are you okay, Ozzy?"

[Chad32]

"And I'm all for that. Not wanting to be insulting or anything. Just saying most Andalites can't taverse through space-time or whatever."

[Darth Revan]

((Yay for lunch breaks!))

Thordon answered Ossanlin. His voice seemed to have a slight echo, "I am unsure of what my true form is." Thordon looked at his 'body', and noticed he was hovering two inches off of the grass. "This may just be an effect from having to use so much energy. I feel as though I did when I was in the spacial rift, when I first ascended; at peace with everything around me, somewhat... unaffected."

Myitt and those trailing her came through the tree line and asked towards Ossanlin's status, "His body and mind are adapting to the change from traveling between dimensions. Hello again Myitt, Temrash, have you forgotten me so soon?"

((Break's over. I'll be back @ 5pm PST))

[Chad32]

"I seem to have problems committing you to memory, Thordon. I forgot your name aftr we met, and now I can't recognize your sillouette. Maybe my memory is full, and it's having problems processing new ones. I thought you were still in Myitt's ship anyway."

[Myitt]

Myitt blinks.  "Thordon?" she says incredulously.  "I didn't...recognize you.  I had no idea you had powers like this.  What are you all doing out here?  We saw this blue light and I just had this sudden flash of..of recognition."  She steps back and leans against a tree, holding her head.  

"Does anyone else feel lightheaded?" she says hazily, looking up.  "Oh, no.  He's here, too?"  She finally notices Mar, standing near Claxter and Efaen.

[Chad32]

"Take it easy Myitt." Temrash said with concern.

Claxter had noticed Mar earlier, but he seemed less intimidating after he fell over. <This is too strange for words.>

[Terenia]

Efaen remains mostly silent throughout the exchange, her posture becoming increasingly tense.

<<Claxter,>> she says at last, amidst the commotion, <<that is not normal. An Andalite does not glow. And what is that....thing he is with?>> she asks, referring to the glowing mass that is Thordon, <<I do not like this. I do not like this at all.>>

---

"I have no idea, but I wish she'd freaking hurry up," Terenia says coarsely. She shuts down the game, too irritated to continue playing.

"Maybe you could go find her? Speed her along a bit?" She asks hopefully.

[Chad32]

(Yeah Corliss, go try to speed her along a bit. That should end well. )

<Perhaps some sort of explanation is in order.> <<I'm as confused as you are. All I wanted to do was have a nice open graze and drink. The longer we stay here, the stranger things become.>>

[Shenmue654]

((Ooops, in my haste to post I forgot someone! :3 ))

Mar glances around him with a slight smirk on his face, noting the incredible confusion of the people surrounding him. He doesn't look even slightly confused by the fact that Thordon is now glowing with incredible light, or the fact that Ossanlin isn't very normal. But on the other hand, Mar isn't going anywhere near Thordon. In fact, he walks awkwardly around Thordon and towards Ossanlin, as if avoiding nuclear waste.

"Yes, I have my memories back," Mar says to Ossanlin with a smile, yet again not touching Ossanlin directly. "I am glad that you have returned safely. Speaking of which..." Mar turns towards the crowd and shrugs. "What are all of you staring at? Thordon's light is quite startling, but I believe he told you all many times that he was not entirely mortal. Ossanlin however is mortal and an Andalite, but he has associations that merit his travel through the Timestream. He may explain himself if he wishes."
*******************************************************************************************************************
The bizarre glowing light doesn't exactly miss Keshin and Joanne's attention, but the others are already out the door of the spaceship before Keshin has time to act. Keshin frowns and walks out of the spaceship, staring towards the light.

<Kess...let's blitz. If we don't we might miss it, eh?>

<Okay...but...let's not make this a habit.> Keshin then breaks into an impossibly fast run, seemingly reaching the clearing in a matter of seconds. To his shock Ossanlin is staring there with a bizarre glowing man, along with the shifty-looking bastard who gave them a job once. Keshin stumbles awkwardly into the clearing, clutching his heart, his vision temporarily blurry. "Hi...what...what's happening over..there? What is that...thing? Hah....."

[Terenia]

<<I agree. Too strange, perhaps. I think I have just about seen enough and am ready to head home,>> Efaen says, half joking. The joke falls flat, however, as she realizes that she does not have what anyone would call a 'home'. Her face briefly betrays her emotions, turning melancholy. She quickly covers it by stepping forward, towards Ossanlin and the others.

<What is the meaning of this?> she asks him pointedly. Glancing back at Claxter with one stalk eye she winks and says, <<if Terenia ever was worth anything, it was teaching me how to be direct.>>

[Chad32]

<I have never seen that guy before.> Claxter said in response to Mar.

"That's true, Mar. Though try not to act too smugly. Most people tend to get confused when they see unfamiliar things.

Gelia blinked as Temrash went dashing after Myitt.  The Council of Thirteen?  A chance to end the Yeerks? 

But still, she should think, consider her options carefully.  "You have been most helpful, Zoshonel," she said, turning to her guide.  "I would like to speak with Gaz.  See what my options could be.  Once again, thank you, you've practically thrown a few job opportunities into my hands."

Gelia dipped her head gratefully to Zoshonel and walked towards the bar, thinking about finding Gaz.  As she reached the bar, she saw Fletcher carrying out a box.  She blinked.  "Where did that come from?"  She asked, surprised.  "It wasn't in the bar when I met Gaz and Morgan.  Was it?"

[KitsuneMarie]

Elayne blinked at the suddenness of Keshin and Joanne's arrival, but her expression immediately turned to one of concern. "You okay?" she asked, her attention diverted only momentarily, as she was still trying to figure out what the heck was going on around her. Irritated at her own confusion, she folded her arms across her chest and rested her weight on her right leg, her hip jutting to the side.

[Chad32]

Temrash decided that if nothing bad was going on here, then he would go back to see Gelia. He found her again at the bar.

"Hello again. sorry for the abruptness earlier. If you have any questions, feel free to ask."

Zoshonel had also gone back towards the bar, but noticed Fletcher taking what smelled like a corpse outside. "Hey Fletcher. What's going on with the body?"

[Myitt]

"Yeah, Ossanlin I'd expect to do the weird blue glowy thing," Myitt snaps loudly at Mar, "but I ain't ever seen Thordon do his crazy Doctor Manhattan impression."  She staggers out of the way, still disoriented, as Keshin seems to appear next to them all.

She finds the strength to grin, knifelike, at Joanne.  "What's the matter?  Been running too hard?"

---

Corliss sighs, staring at the computer readouts.  "Still nothing.  Yeah, I reckon I could go and knock on the hull of the Apex Mirage.  That is, of course, if they're still in there.  Can you hang on a minute?  I'll have my comm link on, it's labeled in the shipboard system.  You can use that to contact me at any time, all right?  I'll be back."

He walks back out of the pool room and into the small cabin, exiting the ship into the darkening forest.  He begins to head in the direction of the parked Apex Mirage, somewhere in front of the bar, but he hears clear voices from somewhere not too far to his right, through the trees.  

"Either that's Myitt, or your ears have gone daft," Corliss murmurs aloud to Mike, walking through the brush and heading in the direction of the noise.  It turns out that the Skimmer had half-crashed not too far from the little cluster of grass and trees around which several bar patrons were now standing...or floating.

Corliss pulls back a couple of branches.  "Is this an invite-only party?" he inquires.  Then he notices Efaen.  "Oh, bloody good then, Terenia's wondering what's on your mind.  You know, not literally.  About what she'd been on about earlier.  Um."  He looks at the others.  "Really, am I interrupting something?"

"Just having a happening party out here in the woods, Cor," says Myitt with a little gloved wave.
