Vervolgens werd richting Assmannshausen gegaan om de volgende fraaie intercity op de foto te zetten. Op de normale stek stond een Fuzzie in beeld op een bijzondere locatie. Aangezien ik liever geen personen wegshop werd wat verder gezocht. Zo kwamen we op dit fraaie hogere punt terecht. Niet lang na aankomst zien we hier de 101 144 voorbij komen met de fraaie ÖBB rijtuigen.

Nadat er later op de avond bij de plaatselijke Pizzeria op het terras was gegeten, moest er richting auto gevlucht worden voor een zeer zware onweersbui! Gelukkig was het op zondagmorgen 29 juli 2018 weer zonnig en werd na de koffie opnieuw richting de stek bij de Suikerfabriek gereden. Helaas bleek de zondagmorgen zeer rustig en de enige cargo die zich aandiende was deze 152159 van DB Cargo met een vrij korte kolentrein op weg richting Braunschweig. Niet veel later na het maken van de opname kwam de plaatselijke boswachter? ons manen direct te vertrekken, aangezien al die "Fuzzie's" de weg kapot reden en er duidelijk een bord aan het begin van de weg stond (bijna niet leesbaar, maar bij ieder landweggetje in duitsland aanwezig) We moesten de auto vooraan parkeren en een kilometer lopen waar we met deze hitte weinig trek in hadden. Dus werd er ingepakt, aangezien er sowiso weer sluierbewolking ontstond en daarom werd richting plaatselijke bakker gereden voor een stevig en lekker ontbijt! (met helaas slappe Duitse koffie :-) )

This cute fuzzie-ness just appeared, seemingly overnight!

“A timid 1880s British Army officer resigns, burning his last-day summons to war in Egypt. Accusing him of cowardice, his girlfriend and three friends give him white feathers. To gain redemption, he shadows his friends to save their lives.” – IMDb

 

“The Saga of the Sudan . . . filmed in breathless beauty! Valiant Kitchener marching to avenge Khartoum! The fearful ‘Fuzzie-Wuzzies,’ only native troops that ever broke a British ‘hollow square’! A lightning story, alive with drama – seen through the eyes of a man who was branded a coward . . . and who lived to hurl the words in the teeth of his accusers!” [From the ad copy]

Stars shining bright above you

Night breezes seem to whisper "i love you"

Birds singin in the sycamore trees

Dream a little dream of me

 

Say nighty-night and kiss me

Just hold me tight and tell me youll miss me

While Im alone and blue as can be

Dream a little dream of me

 

Stars fading but I linger on dear

Still craving your kiss

Im longin to linger till dawn dear

Just saying this

 

Sweet dreams till sunbeams find you

Sweet dreams that leave all worries behind you

But in your dreams whatever they be

Dream a little dream of me~

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 10.31.2110

 

I couldn’t decipher much of the system log, as I am not that good with computer language. From what I can piece together, it happened like this:

 

It was a cold, dark, dry Martian night in the Sector 12 station. Sergeant-at-Arms Kelby had just begun checking his third-quarter timesheets, when an old, disused pad (100198) started to hack into the system form the disused back entrance. Eventually, it managed to hack the security codes so that it carried Captain Piccadilly’s code! The operator of the pad used this to get into Level 9, our chaotic call center. Then, he/she opened fire on the cavernous room, filled to the gills with vidphone operators. We lost three operators at that instant. They were Susan Adams, “Acid” Wund, and Jon Baker. They were all at the top of their game, and much too young to die. The security cameras caught a glimpse of a completely black-clad figure dual-wielding banned Walther Disentegrators. I ran a face-match on this picture, and had no luck. The perp suddenly teleported out of there. A small orange and red object dropped, and then KA-WHAM!, no more feed or system logging. I instantly recognized the explosion type. It was a 1-2 megaton fission bomb, with about the yield of the one that destroyed Hiroshima. Thankfully, the system’s last gasp included activating the rad shields and sealing off every section. The system and all the other electronic devices went kaput, because the Keptin designers forgot to add shielding to their design. We had no deaths from the blast, but about 50 got concussion wounds, and all of the evidence was destroyed. I might mention that the café’s food suddenly tasted like a mouthful of brick dust. I can only hope the radiation didn’t affect Sector Twelve’s food stores. The case is nowhere near closed, though.

                      

Chapter 2

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 988) Stardate 11.2.2110

Today started out well enough. I had just figured out a new lead on Case 987. By looking at what was visible of the perp’s face through the mask, I was able to figure out that the perp was the same species as the infamous mugger Slizer. It is definitely not Slizer, though, because he is safe and sound in Planet Lisa’s max-security prison. Then, the worst happened. Reports started filtering in that the Skaalgan, a warrior race, had rebelled against the good rule of the Galactic Republic. First, le me give you a bit of background on the Skaalgan.

 

The Skaalgan are categorized as a Type 12 species. Normal Earth composition air is quite toxic to them, so they have to wear chlorine-filled pressure suits off their home planet, Schvinge. They are also a traditionally violent race, so these methane suits, if punctured, also serve as a deadly gas bomb to Type 3 (oxy-breathing mammals like the Humans) species. At last count, they have orchestrated a baker’s dozen rebellions against the Republic. (source: Hyperwikipedia)

  

They appeared to have no reason other than “it was Bob’s birthday, and that means we go rebel against somebody”. Their main forces for the initial assault consisted of the Mustard Juggernauts, the deadliest combination of armor, gas suits, and weapons the galaxy has ever seen. The Mustard Juggernauts are armed with the deadly GE Minigun and the Heckler&Koch MP5. While outdated, the Minigun puts out an astonishing 3,000 rounds per minute, and the MP5 is astonishingly accurate. Our forces were only ray-shielded, so these “outdated” mass throwers came as quite a surprise. Their main spearheads were on three planets: Planet Lisa, a then-deserted asteroid, and Space Station EM-3. It was a complete massacre. The Space Police peacekeepers, using the completely wrong type of shielding, dropped like flies. We had to call in the Space Marines.

 

I didn’t hear much from HNN on the issue. It soon went deep black. I had to go through the official channels to get any information on the rebellion. From what I heard, it has already been resolved. It’s not my department, anyways…..

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.5.2110

 

I think I have a lead! The only place where Walther Disentegrators can be found is Jack Jeebs Pawn in Queens, New York. I have a void in my schedule tomorrow, so I think I’ll go to Queens to check this out. There’s also a few friends of mine up there that may have some information pertaining to the case. By the way, Sally has been acting up lately. I think she somehow got a copy of Windows Vista to run as a background emulator to relieve boredom, and it is bugging up the system like heck.

    

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.6.2110

I am on the evening rocket back to HQ as I write this. The visit to Jeebs’ place was quite eventful. It’s fresh in my mind, so I’ll give you a play-by-play.

 

I walked into the pawn shop at high noon, with a spring in my step thanks to some spring-augmented stilts from a street vendor. I soon accidentally bumped my head on the chandelier. I asked Jeebs about the Walther disintegrators nicely, and then he unexpectedly tells me about these kids walking in and stealing every single bit of high-tech weaponry he has, including the Walther Disentegrators! Luckily, those kids frequented the shop, so Jeebs new exactly who they were. They were Derek Rodriguez and Alfred Lord, both 17. They lived in the Jamaica Estates apartments, room 131 and 342 respectively. I will have to file for a warrant to both interview and interrogate these kids about the robbery and where the disintegrators went.

Paperwork sucks eggplants. I had to go through a Trip Value Assessment, an after-action report, an incident report, a polygraph test, an appeal for a warrant, an overhead expense justification sheet for the spring-augmented stilts, and a part replacement chitty for Sally’s graphics chip (it had become infested with gremlins) just for those past two days! Arrghh!

 

Anyway, I pulled up the files on those kids. Nothing came up except for this odd code fragment from Sally.

>fuzzy wuzzies

That’s all. I think I need to replace the monitor again.

I finally got the warrant for search of the Jamaica Estates apartments, rooms 131 and 342. I am right in front of the building right now, so I’ll go ahead and log it. The log may prove crucial.

2:00 I am at the lobby.

2:01 I ask the receptionist which way I should head to get to room 131.

2:02 Receptionist: “Here’s a map, you should know how to use it.”

2:03 Note to self: Do not ask directions from the receptionist. Ever.

2:04 I am knocking at the door of room 131.

2:09 Nobody has answered.

2:10 I am using the ancient elevator in lieu of a turbolift to get to room 342.

2:15 I am knocking at the door of room 342.

2:16 I apparently am knocking at the front door of the Odd Species Embassy in New York, New York.

2:17 Something has gone seriously wrong. I appear to have entered a spatial disturbance.

2:18 Starfleet Lieutenant Commander Data answers the door. I ask him about the disturbance.

Data: “I have no idea as to what just happened. However, I am on vacation and am able to assist.

2:19 Data pulls out his tricorder and scans me.

Data: “You appear to have come from the year 2110. Welcome to the twenty-fourth century.”

2:20 Make that temporal disturbance. I hate it when Carl Sagan forgets to carry a number.

I have entered a temporal disturbance while knocking at the door of room 342 at the Jamaica Estates apartments in Queens, New York. I have acquired a helper in the form of Starfleet Lieutenant Data. He is an android with a positronic brain. I have no leads on either Incident 987 or how I am supposed to get out of here. Yikes. Of course, the fuzzy wuzzies may have something to do with that.

          

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.12.2410

 

I just searched “fuzzie wuzzies” about a minute ago and it came up with some interesting results. Fuzzie wuzzies appears to be an asteroid in the next sector over with an odd temporal anomaly on its surface. I’m in the middle of coordinating an attempt to figure out which time and system it goes to.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.16.2110

I am not allowed to divulge the methods by which I got back because of the Prime Directive, but here I am. Everything’s good now, but the Jamaica Estates apartments are going to have to have a thorough scientific scan for anomalies. I hope I can interrogate the two kids while they’re waiting for their rooms to finish the scan. Meanwhile, back to Sally’s defective monitor…

 

Transcript of interview of Derek Rodriguez and Alfred Lord by SPSI Saxon Fletcher

Stardate 11.16.2110 2:00 PM

Saxon Fletcher: Do you happen to know anything about the temporal anomaly in Alfred Lord’s room?

Alfred Lord: Woops, sorry about that. It’s a leftover from when my whole family lived in the apartment and I wanted to keep my little sister out of my room. I really must recalibrate that thing.

Saxon Fletcher: What do you know about the thief of Jack Jeebs’s whole weapons stock?

Derek Rodriguez: His weapons stock has never been stolen, ever. I should know. He lies to any overly curious people so they don’t go spreading rumors that Jeebs has some illegal weapons. He only sells those illegal weapons to people threatening him with a much bigger gun or a permit, though.

Alfred Lord: His whole stock is intact. I bought a target blaster off him just yesterday.

Saxon Fletcher: Do you happen to know anything about a pair of Walther Disentegrators that disappeared from Jeebs’s store about two weeks ago?

Derek Rodriguez: He sold them to a light-green colored alien that looked a lot like that Slizer dude you see on the “Most Wanted” posters.

Saxon Fletcher: That’s all. Good day.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.17.2110

I had to go through more paperwork than ever today! I think the paper I used was about the yield from an entire tree. I had to go to a debriefing run by the Physicists that Formerly said Theoretical, make an absence excuse sheet, negotiate with Sally’s defective gremlin-catching lawyer, file an After-Action Report from the interview of Rodriguez and Lord, explain the Prime Directive to about fifty of my coworkers, go through a full bio scan, and last but not least, a cost-risk assessment for some utterly unrelated thing that accidentally got wired to me. I plan to quantify Rodriguez’s statement about Jeebs’s sales with my old pals at MiB, test out those stilts, and try to catch up on my doctorate of investigation.

  

CHAPTER 3

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.18.2110

I’m at the Queens MiB bureau as I write this. It appears that both the MiB have developed a lifespan-enhancing drug called “boosterspice” with no ill effects. This has Potential with a capital P. Sadly, I am not allowed to divulge any details about this breakthrough, or I would have to brain-wipe you. Anyways, I checked with K about Jeeb’s activities. Turns out the kids were right. Jeebs uses everything he can to keep the long arm of the law out of his shop. The MiB (or Mibbies as we call them in the amateur xenobiologist community) assigned me Agent J to help me out on the case, as they lost one of their own (“Acid” Wund, who was visiting). I’ve also been assigned an extremely potent version of the famed Noisy Cricket with a longer antenna to use if things get interesting. Here’s a play-by play log of our “visit” to Jeebs’s shop.

11:00 AM Agent J and I are exiting the Mibbie’s Queens Bureau through the west exit.

11:02 AM I see the street vendor that sold me those spring-loaded stilts. I thank him.

11:05 AM Agent J and I stop to talk to a pug. He quantifies the kid’s statement yet again.

11:15 AM J and I are waiting at the bus stop.

11:45 AM J and I are still waiting.

12:00 PM We get on the bus to MacDougal Street.

1:00 PM We get off the bus.

1:15 We are at the “Question of Time” jewelry shop, aka Jeebs’s shop.

1:16 Agent J: “Jeebs, let’s see the goods.”

1:17 Jeebs: “I don’t know nothing about any goods! I’m just a humble jewelry shop owner!”

1:18 Agent J: “Skip it. We know you have extraterrestrial weapons here.”

1:19 Jeebs pulls out a fearsome-looking shotgun and presses it to J’s head. It’s time for the Son of the Noisy Cricket.

1:20 I shoot the Noisy Cricket II at Jeeb’s head and simultaneously cause Jeeb’s head to disappear, the shotgun drops on the button that changes Jeebs’s shelves, and the recoil throws me back about 10 feet. “Noisy Cricket” my butt.

1:21 Jeebs: “You idiot! Do you know how much that stings?”

1:22 I ask Jeebs about the two Walther Disentegrators he sold a couple weeks ago.

1:23 Jeebs: “That guy said he was mafia. I can’t tell you anything”.

1:24 Agent J: “The mafia doesn’t have aliens.”

1:25 Jeebs: “Alright, fine. I don’t know his name, but I do know where he lives and what he is. He is a rouge Igor from Discworld, transported here by a temporal anomaly. He currently lives in the Jupiter sky colonies.

1:26 Me: “That pretty much seals it. All Igors call themselves Igor, so we know his name, location, and timeframe.”

1:27 Agent J and I are heading back to MiB HQ.

5:00 We are back at MiB HQ. I hate rush hour.

     

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.19.2110

I am starting preparations for the trip to Jupiter to track down the Jovian Igor. I’ve collected a warrant, a small rocket-powered atmosphere skipper, and the pressure suits necessary so far. I’m in the process of figuring out a vehicle-mounted weapons system that won’t accidentally shoot through the gas envelopes of the colonies. My solution so far uses a combination of a railgun shooting small, thin-walled ampoules of hydrogen at an incredibly high speed. Theoretically, this design will have a darn-near unlimited ammo supply, given that the Jovian atmosphere is primarily made up of hydrogen. I just have to keep the whole atmosphere from going up in flames! Agent J has come through with some of the gadgets we are going to need, and my alma mater Clark County University has provided us with a prototype warp drive capable of going Warp 4. Now all we need is a vehicle to cram all this stuff in.

    

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.20.2110

We’ve got a ship. It’s a robust cargo hauler called the Star Porter. I’ve got a configuration for everything. The railgun design has been fabbed and is in shipping, and I am trying to cram the CCU warp drive into Engineering. I’ve collected a crack crew. Now to get the muscle to operate the lifts right… Agent J is wrestling with installing the scanners and matter-energy reactor. I have also come up with another lead about the Jovian Igor. He lives in Sky Colony 4, near the equator.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.21.2110

Ha, all the keys I had to press were the two, the one, and the zero. Anyways, we’ve got everything ready and will be underway once the FAA gives us a clearance, which could be tomorrow or the next millennium, knowing how the FAA hates everyone. I’m trying to find more info on Sky Colony 4. Apparently, the fourth colony disappeared into the Big Red Spot about five years ago, yet its transponders are giving the “all clear” signal, and their locators are disabled. Rumors have been circulating that Four broke away from the Republic. This adds another SP team to my crew compliment, but they’re good people. Heading up SPSI Team TWO will be Special Operator Medvedev. He will have Agent K, Bob and a young upstart named Kirk under him.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.22.2110

We’ve got an FAA clearance at last. We launch tomorrow. All preparations are done.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.23.2110

We have launched. We are going to do a mid-trip refuel with a Ramses-class supertanker, net info dump near Asteroid AP Alpha, and finally detach the atmospheric hopper section, which contains the bridge, living quarters for the SP investigation units, and a gas envelope inflator. I also am riding the hopper down. When we hit the atmosphere, we will gather inflatable gasses for about a minute (sixty kilometers downwards), inflating the gas envelope as we go down. Once the gas envelope inflates, we will gain the designation Sky Rover One. We will make our way over to Five’s last known location, then deploy rocket hoppers in a spiral search pattern.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.24.2110

 

We have made it to the refuel point with the Ramses-class supertanker Star Provider.

No sight of her, yet, which is very weird. Meanwhile, the crew has been amusing themselves with the holodeck. They have been having as much fun with the constant power and picture tube repairs as with using it. Changing the picture tubes requires hooking into a safety line climbing rig and climbing a hundred-foot ladder of titanium-sheathed Net conduits to the projector. There, they have to input a thirty-two digit hexadecimal security code to gain access to the projector assembly. Once they replace it, they face a hundred-fifty foot rappel down to safety. It’s not for the queasy. The projector blows quite a lot, so they get a lot of chances. One of our engineers is testing a wing system to eliminate the rappel. He has went through five “Frequent Patient” cards at sickbay.

The power units are a whole different story. When they go down, all heck breaks lose. The subject has to suit up in full “battle rattle”, containing a deactivator pistol, a high-strength locator beacon, a holoresolver HUD, and a Scout power armor suit. Once down to the engineering levels, he has to literally do battle with the failing holoprojector computer. The computer generates random images, most used in battle training and therefore quite frightening. The subject uses his holoresolver HUD to check and see if the hologram can do any damage (the holodeck computer has been known to interface with the replicator at times) and takes the required action. If the hologram is innocuous, he adjusts his HUD to block it out and move on. If the hologram’s matter-energy settings are off and it looks to be malicious, the subject tries to access the shipwide network and shut that down. If not, he shoots it with the deactivator, which tells the computer to shut that image down. The computer has, on occasion, taken cues from early pre-warp two-dimensional “videogames” and have a life system, which causes the image to take multiple shots to shut down. To counter this, the arts department is working with the geeks to create higher-power weapons such as deactivator cannons. I think that, with the proper modifications, these weapons will be quite useful on Sky Colony Four. Once the subject has gotten to the central holodeck computer, he has to interface directly with it via his Net implant to reprogram it to accept the new power circuitry. This is incredibly tedious at the best of times, and utterly nauseating and terrifying when the computer is really on the fritz or in one of its moods. After he has reprogrammed it, he has to come back through the “stacks”, which contain, at total, fifteen thousand terabytes of data. He must not bump a single memory stack for fear of taking down life support or his locator beacon receiver software. The Adar designers, in their endless wisdom, made this a fun little labyrinth. Thankfully, we haven’t lost a man yet, but it took five hours until we heard from SP Investigation Team ONE Matrix Specialist Max “Job Title” Porkins.

     

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.25.2110

We have finally sighted the Star Provider and refueled. The Bussard-Cherenkov balance refueling process is quite a spectacle, so I’ll relate the process to you.

First, the subject has to bleed off all its fuel. This is usually accomplished by having the refueling point when the subject is almost completely out of fuel, but the modified Star Porter is a bit different. Our modifications meant that the quad-blaster cannon gas reserves are in the previous main fuel tank, and the fuel is contained in MASSIVE external conformal fuel tanks (ECFTs). The ECFT designer forgot to add external dump valves. Additionally, our refuel point had to be when we were midway there, because that was the last refuel point until Jupiter. We could have lasted until we were three-quarters there, but then we would be dead in space with no refueling opportunity.

Our pilot accomplishes this by taking the Star Porter through VERY aggressive combat maneuvers. He first detaches the atmospheric hopper section so the crew doesn’t get nauseated, and then goes through about twenty barrel rolls. It worked, thankfully, and I didn’t have to ride shotgun on THAT stagecoach. Next, the atmospheric hopper pilot reattaches with the main section (taking up precious fuel, but the main section pilot made it within a kilometer). Next, the tanker takes down an umbilical and refuels each ECFT individually, a painstaking process. Finally, the tanker detaches. Anyways, we refueled well and are now going towards the Net dump.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.26.2110

We have made it to the Net dump but are having some problems. The conduits are overflowing and maxing out the processors. It’s definitely going to be interesting. The engineers have hacked up a solution, involving some duct tape and a welder. We’ll see how long that holds up. I’ve actually managed to dredge u some information regarding these rebel Igors. They actually have a secret society and are plotting to take over Jupiter. They have, so far, only been able to put one Igor in, our perp.

 

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.27.2110

We are now separating the atmospheric section from the section with the warp drive.

T+1 The section has been successfully separated.

T+2 The section is in free fall.

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.28.2110

We have tracked down the Jovian Igor and he is in jail, but it’s no fun if you, dear reader, do not know how it happened, so here goes!

 

It was an all-too-stormy day on Jupiter. The time: high noon. We had boarded the rebel Sky Colony Five via the good ship Boarding One and swept the colony like the old Navy SEALs. Suddenly, our old friend the Jovian Igor fired at my first officer Sgt. Novak. Sadly, the perpetrator was a dead shot. I set my trusty Noisy Cricket to “stun” and went after the direction of the shot, with Men In Black Agent J trailing close behind. Little did we know, the Igor had professional training. Like any good blaster sniper, he never shot from the same spot twice. With holographic decoys that we had set out earlier dropping like flies, it looked like a miniature D-Day, except for two details: We were on a blimp and using blasters. Agent J suggested using jetpacks, which we did. Thankfully, they were the new repulsor units. Taking energy from the batteries of the dearly deceased hologram units, we took to the air like so many birds. Trouble is, our flight skills weren’t all that good (both of us having barely passed Basic Jetpack Skills in primary), so we barely made it over the courthouse roof . These comedic antics acted as excellent evasive maneuvers, so we were never hit once. I pulled out my binoculars and had a look around. Surprisingly enough, the Igor was smack-dab in my sights. I took my Noisy Cricket off safety and fired. The recoil knocked me back about 10 feet, thus throwing off my gyros. I barely had enough time to compensate before I hit the ground. My jetpack busted, I had to chase the perp on foot. He ran up a fire escape, firing wildly (and missing) all the time. When he got up, he had to change blaster gas cells. I took the opportunity and fired. The infamous Jovian Igor was down. I took out a Styrette from my supplies and injected the Igor with an anesthetic, which would keep him out for at least 5 hours. Then the worst happened. Blaster fire started pouring in from all directions. It turned out that our little friend was not alone. I left the perp to the paddy wagon and dove for cover. Fortunately, his henchmen were not as well trained, firing from the same spot all the time. Agent J was able to take most of them out, but had to leave the ones better fortified to the Noisy Cricket, which was in possession of me. I found the first one near the radio shack. He was pretty well dug in there, with Dura Crete walls and a heavy ML42. One shot with that weapon, and I would have been dead. I saw him before he saw me, though, and took him out. One shot, and KABOOM! No more bunker! I moved on to the next one, who was snug as a bug I the armory. “This is going to be hard,” I thought to myself. Completely the opposite, this guy was the dumbest of them all. He barely fired and stood way out in the open, where I shot him with the Noisy Cricket. He was, without a question, disintegrated. I took a weapon with less recoil from the armory, as well as a new repulsor pack. Again, I took to the air, but with a little more confidence this time. I spotted the third and plinked a grenade into his hideout near the commissary. It failed to go off. I plinked another, ditto. The grenades must have been affected by the harsh Jupiter atmosphere. I landed and fired my Noisy Cricket at him, and he then went down. That was the last of them. I then went back to our base and we packed up and headed for home with the Jovian Igor safe behind bars.

  

Investigator Saxon Fletcher’s Case Log (Incident 987) Stardate 11.29.2110

We are en route back home. We have successfully reconnected with our warp drive section, made our Net dump, refueled from the atmosphere, and solved the dual mysteries of the Jovian Igor and the missing Sky Colony Five. It turns out that the Igor society hopped onto Five disguised as normal passengers and then executed a military coup. The colony turned off its transponder and went completely self sufficient from the Republic. I can’t wait to be done with all this running around!

Char was gracious enough to share the button with the story. It's a sort of 'Pay It Forward' kind of thing. I think our Mom's would be proud of us.

[21:11] Shilandar Deledda made his way past Brandon and the woman at his side slowly, eyes slipping over the man and those veins standing out upon his face with a slightly curious expression. Stopping though as his gaze was brought towards Beth thanks to line of sight shifting with continued steps, and he slowly released Kat to approach the human blonde. Slow lick of lips wet dark skin while his gaze locked onto Beth, drawing coldly across her figure before his malicious mannerisms leaked into vocals as well. "Keep running into each other lately... I'd almost think you were trying to stalk me nowadays."

.

[21:15] beth Latynina was paused along the bottom of the ramp lost in own thoughts of the last few day, half watching the small gathering of people startled sharply from her drifting at the sound of Chi's voice, having not been seeking him out but for some reason fate seems to be having fun crossing our paths lately, blue eyes just look into his crimson ones unspeaking for an moment,"well I am not much of an stalker"

[21:16] Shadowkat Wrigglesworth reads the words from the phone as she slowly looked to the ground and shook her head as she took a deep breath. She was still wobbly from the events of earlier and as she watched Chi go over to Beth, she was still getting use to the fuzzie images. The tiger made her way over to the wall and leaned against it as she slowly moved to sit down upon the ground atlease the best that she could. The tiger shouldn't have been out, but then again when did she ever listen.

[21:19] Shilandar Deledda chuckles softly at that and crossed his arms, slight upwards curve of mouth belying the malicious intent hidden within those crimson orbs. Whatever he had showed Beth before was either satisfied or mitigated, though hardly completely absent from the man's persona. "No, you're more the pass and growl type... so different from trying to pass over free drinks at the Milk Bar, mm?" Slowly steps would begin to circle about Beth, his gaze obviously looking towards her back as if to see through all that hair and determine if she had yet to take care of her back.

.

[21:25] beth Latynina she would have to smile some at that comment as it is true that has an thing about growling, almost as much as she does for bitting but then Chi would not know that fact, trembling inside as always around him she tries not to let it show as being more carefull now that she is pregnant, eyes drift to watch Chi as he circles her slender frame knowing he is trying to glimpse the flesh of her back, if he can see he would note it was now scareless

[21:26] Shadowkat Wrigglesworth looks up noticing Criss but didn't react as she started to move her hand to the phone to send out another text. Her eyes lifted up towards Chi as she watched him with Beth and then moved back down at the paper. "..Chi..." She spoke lightly, "I'm hungry.."

[21:27] Shilandar Deledda would catch that glimpse, and react to it by reaching a hand up through her tresses and lay it flat against that backside. Eyes flickered towards Kat while bare fingers caressed a slow circle across that soft skin, intentionally leaning in close enough to look towards Kat over Beth's shoulder. "Alright, Kat. We'll get you some food." Air flooded from lips across Beth's ear when Chi spoke, his eyes pivoting in their sockets to lock upon Criss nearby. Such a crew to encounter tonight.

[21:31] Shadowkat Wrigglesworth stood up once more as she started to feel the doctors painmeds kicking in. They always got her truthful as she started to walk over towards Chi. Her lavender orbs seemed glazed over as she tried to hide her pain-filled lavender orbs. The tiger ran her fingers over her stomach feeling another sharp pain still not use to having this many stitches. "Plus...I need to change my clothes..." Which was still wet, and damp with her own blood.

[21:32] beth Latynina she would just shudder as hand slides tangling to long mane of blonde hair pressing to warmed flesh, blue eyes closing for an moment as she remembers the pain he had inflicted to carve that skin, hearing his spoken words close to ear eyes open to glance across to Kat taking an moment to note her injuries, frowning but now is not the time to question her about them, just stands stil while Chi is so close

.

[21:38] Shilandar Deledda gave a satisfied smile when Criss looked away, the invoking of thoughts exactly what he had seemed to desire. With a sharp tug on Beth's top, as if he intended to rip it downwards from her chest simply for the amusement of her reaction, he stepped away from the woman and moved for Kat. Leaving those others as they were his hand would again pass through that blue flow of dyed strands, guiding them up the street more with his presence than any true physical interjection. "Take care, Beth. Don't miss your nightly screamfest."

[21:41] Shadowkat Wrigglesworth just looked up to him as she felt the hand in her hair and nibbled on her lower lip as she trailed with him. She would slowly slip her hands into her pocket as she looked to the ground. Her knee felt better due to that pain, and then slowly she spoke lightly to him. "..Are you mad, Chi?" He would know what she was asking about.

[21:43] Criss Reifsnider again studies Kat and her blood soaked shir, she had to giggle just a little bit seeing her suffer.

[21:44] beth Latynina feels the tugging jerk of hand as he would pull her top down, swell of breasts bouncing free she does not give him the satisfaction of reacting as she was and still is an stripper so being naked does not phase her in the least, tugging it back up as she just moves up the street to the TZ as to show she is dismissing him from her mind, either to show he him had no effect on her or to just try to spoil his fun, thinking to self to speak to Kat later to ensure she is alright

[

[21:51] Shilandar Deledda sighs and shakes his head at Kat, glancing back towards the departing Beth and hmaking a silent note to find out a bit more about her husband. "Not even slightly, Kat. C'mon, let's get you some food."

[21:52] Criss Reifsnider watches as Beth's tits flop out of her top

[21:52] Shadowkat Wrigglesworth smiled lightly hearing his words and followed behind him as she lifted her eyes from the ground. She was careful tho, expecting Johnathon to show up again, she moved slower due to the wounds, but she still tried to hide the pain. "Okay..."

[21:53] Shilandar Deledda actually didn't mean to make them flop out, only to tug on the clotehs a bit. But oh well, he was sure no one minded the show too much anyway.

  

At Saki with friends - Some enjoyed the "bait boat" - I, along with Tracey & Mel, ate a tad more conservatively.

 

Shot with the ever fuzzie blackberry cameraphone

Noor is my niece from my eldest sister. I have seen Noor growing up from a baby to a fine young woman now. At the age of 22 now, Noor will be graduating from her study in one of the local Universities in Mass Communication this year and might be furthering abroad or locally after that.

 

Reluctant in the beginning to join Juria for the photo session that day, we managed to get Noor infront of the lens and surprisingly she is quite camera friendly.

 

Location : Juria's Home, Subang Jaya - Malaysia

The title to this shot is just one piece in a series by Erik Satie. The interpretations I like are all done on guitar. Here's a version I like

 

I was really struck by the composition of this scene this past weekend. 3 Cattails, equally spaced with silhouetted reeds below and a dark reflection above. A very contemporary take on nature I think.

 

Even if no one comments because this isn't as pretty as my previous upload, I am very proud of this image.

Friends see note* below description.

I feel blessed when I see Sandhill Cranes, much less photograph them. It lifts me up in the most amazing way, and I am ever in awe of their beauty, movements and interactions. This is a photo of Cherry, taken by my estimation a week before she and Classic would start sitting the nest. Classic does most of the sitting. He’s a diligent dad and mate. They are not nesting on the property where I work this year. We’ve had a lot more ducks nesting and hanging out in the ponds, including a Hooded Merganser family. Lots of other birds are frequenting the property as well, Great Blue Heron, Great Egret, Snowy Egret, White Ibis, Little Blue and Lesser Blue Herons. I got a decent photo of the Merganser family I will post.

Spring is in full swing here in Central FL. So many birds are nesting. This morning as I was leaving for work, I startled what I think was pair of grackles that had come in our garage to grab some fuzzie/dust bunnies/spider-webby fluff for its nest. My hubby thinks they are trying to build a nest IN the garage. As quaint as that is, it’s messy, so we’re keeping the garage door closed.

The Lakewood Osprey pair are nesting, but I’ve seen no sign of a nest for the Rayas pair behind the Mexican restauarnt. The owner of the restaurant told me he found one electrocuted. Maybe it was one of the parents. Life is definitely hazardous for urban wildlife. I’m glad I have photos of them in all their glory, and I’ll keep hoping I’ll see them or their offspring in that area.

*Special Note: Dear Craniacs and Flickr Friends! I am alive and kicking, and getting back to jumping out of my car with my camera, or running outside when I see or hear something. Life and work are extra busy, and we’ve had some family stuff. All is well, but I was stretched extra thin for a few months. Thanks for Flickr Mailing me to make sure I was okay. I’m going to try to log some Flickr time at least once a week so people aren’t checking the obituaries for me. Love and Hugs! =o)

Our first house warming gift♥

Foggy Autimn at Splügenpass / Passo della Spluga.

On the road. The wheather was horrible, part of the fuzzieness is because the lens was wet. But basically I think this fits the landscape with it's weired fall colors.

Wir wissen bis heute nicht, was uns der Ballonfuzzie ins Gratisgetränk geträufelt hat, dass wir derart massiv neben uns standen - pardon: saßen. Jedenfalls hat das Zeugs ziemlich geballert!

 

To this day we still don't know what that balloon fuzzie trickled into our free drinks, that we stood - pardon: "that we sat" so massively beside ourselves. Anyway, this stuff really shot!
