Kids.....

Had to take down a bunch of the stuff from the show. The lightin' had to be done with the wirin' so they could be put back up later. "So far Lily's been not so crazy... Well ain' t been settin' fires this week... Could change at any time. Then there's AuroraBlue. She decided to come on out pf hidin' to spend some time with me. Wandered 'round for a spell and sorta talked. Was happy she was back. lily wasn't though. She's been say AuroraBlue's bad. That the cub's been causin' the vandalism. Hell.. Caught Lily in the act once.  "

"Thing is.. Thought she caused a bunch of animals from Ketterly's ranch to drop dead. Turned out is was somethin' in the area. The water's most likely the cause. Don't help that the fish're dead in the area. Over the last couple days, been haulin' the carcasses out to be burned. No sense in leavin' the bodies out for the wildlife to get sick on." Rolled 'nother long cable to be stored. One more and then it's down the power box to be disconnected and moved.

"Have to admit, I didn't b'leive Lily on seein' G 'til he showed up in the office..... Was a mite weird to be honest.... All glowin' and all. At first thougth it was the spice, but no. He said it was a transmitted signal to a holoprojection of him. Said he was dead but the 'bot body he was in was still somewhere in the floatin' rocks of what was left of Hale's Moon. That got me thinkin'.... Time to go do some salvage of a strange kind. Body recovery.... G's body. Desmond might be able to do soemthin' with the DNA thats still settin' the brain case. Maybe....."

Climbin' down the scaffoldin' was fair easy 'nough. Grabbin' the heavy gloves and the tools I needed to pull  the power box, my next job was set. "Then a few days back Svet showed up with one of her crew. Ayumi. They were talkin' 'bout takin' some trade to Colchester. Had some medical supplies for us too. Sheems she come with a brood too. Three little ones. One bein' an orphan named Medusa. The kid was feelin' lonely for a family. Lily took her on over to see Seana....."

".....After she and AuroraBlue played. Lily was sayin' the cub was bad to Medusa. Figures. A chance for the kids to be friends and Lily wanted to ruin it. But then Lily's not been her own self for a while. And after that talk with Xoxo 'bout her... No wonder. If she's re-writin' her own self.... What all's gonna be left of who she was to folks. Won't be the same." With the power off, removin' the box and coverin' the ends of the mains were pretty gorram easy. Took 'nother look 'roun dot be sure Lily wasn't 'round to hit the main power.... Didn't want to get cooked.



"Found out later that Seana was gonna care for Medusa. Good choice. I might have trouble with Seana on some stuff, but she's a good one for bein' a good parent to the kid. Now to work on AuroraBlue.. Needs a bath and a lesson on not stealin'.."
