*facepalm* OOHHH Yeah!!!! Kristen is at the zoo! Doh... Um... I think Rad is handling that part of the Yeerk front.

Our poor people. We're all gonna be on the Yeerks' Most Wanted list by the end of the week. The Animorphs had it easy compared to us. *sigh*

Don't feel rushed or anything. We won't mind waiting.

Edit: Oh great... that doesn't seem like a much better alternative..

Oh yeah she is. She PMed me about that, and I forgot. Okies! :)



Sorry, Rad. I'm struggling to keep up with all that I've got going on IRL. I'll post soon. Thanks for posting for the Yeerks.

This is the area that I'm sending Brian to search.

http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=&daddr=29.280073,-95.478337&hl=en&geocode=&mra=mift&mrsp=1&sz=16&sll=29.280073,-95.479989&sspn=0.00816,0.01266&ie=UTF8&ll=29.278576,-95.473123&spn=0.016321,0.02532&t=h&z=15

And this is where the Woodhouse farm is...

Pending Bear's approval the location for Sean's apartment...

http://maps.google.com/maps?t=h&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=29.756178,-95.367263&spn=0,0.000857&z=20&layer=c&cbll=29.756121,-95.367168&panoid=7I6FLb6J8rNa3pegqF7iBw&cbp=12,172.85,,0,-11.23

Across the street is the police department and there is a McDonald's near by.

That location works for me. The only things to keep in mind are that Sean's apartment complex has a fence and gate, kinda like here (except, well, with a fence and gate :P.) We'll just pretend that the parking garage is a gated parking lot instead. That spot will be fine for Sean's place, but we'll just have to remember that it has a balcony, too. And the McDonald's across the street has a big golden arches sign on it for Tarry to notice.

I noticed that the Woodhouse is kinda far from Hermann Park for example, but another thing that we should keep in mind is that sometimes, even if you live in a different school district, you can request to go to a different school than you might otherwise. In other words, even if Jo doesn't live close enough to our school to automatically go there, we'll just say her dad had her transferred to the better school.

And also... Marie, what do you think about all of this? I mean, you are our native Houstonian... We're using a little bit of imagination here on somethings, but we would like to keep it reasonably reasonable. Any suggestions?

I made a map in Google Maps that has several of our important locations pinned on it. I can add more later, but here it is:

I think it sounds good! Yeah, it's fine to fudge things that don't matter but keep the story working for you. :) I like all the research. If y'all have questions about the area, I'll be happy to answer them as well as I can.

On a fun side note, I spent much of today in Hermann Park right beside the zoo!

But having Laurence around messes with Jo's head much so.  If a shot must be made I don't think it should kill him.  Then again J owns the character so it is his call.

@Tony: Dang, that's intense. (and yeah, you should ask J... I shoulda mentioned that earlier >.<). You're lucky Brian isn't there.... I'm eager to use out his Kodiak morph.

@Rad: WTH???? What am I supposed to do with that? That's not fair, putting Brian in a position like that! What am I... how can I.. huh?

@Everyone: Tony/Unknown User has agreed to officially hand over ownership of Tarry (who I've been 'babysitting' for him) to Donut. He's recently taken an interest in this RP, specifically in Tarry, and it would do our favorite feathered Andalite good for him to have a devoted RPer writing for him.

Donut, welcome aboard!

I was wondering when donut would join. How about we shoot Laurence through the ear so only Wintium is killed? >:D OK, it made more sense in my dream. But, I really don't want Laurence dead yet. Jo wouldn't like that much anywayz...

Fine, Kildor can lean in and whisper something in Ultor/Edward's ear that will convince him to only wound Laurence.
Meh.

Man, I really want to shoot Sandresh for being a human lover! Ultor isn't normally so cruel as this, but he is rather in a rage right now.
Meh.
