[:]o @o *the "death" part went over their heads, but they get the emphasis on the unending cycle of goodness and love, and can tell how much this story means to Ribbon*
That's beautiful.
@) wewanttoseedragonflower!
[:])
^u^ thankyou. -u- and 0u0 if you ever do see one, it would be the Flower's choice. Though there is a chance one might choose to show itself just to let you meet it. ^u^
( 0 w 0 ) >:Yes!; >:really wanto see it; >:really want ito want us to see it;
[!uT] ... [!~T] [!uT] I think going to see if you could find one later might be a good idea. [!uT]
0~0 *is a bit wary of things Dots says might be good ideas* 0u0

=[|8|] ...

7B3 "z."
|/=U] zzz...
*she has a similar thought to Ribbon* You know what I think? I think the lot of you are plenty good without needing any flower's help, right now. *gives Hamnet a little squeeze*
[(]D Hehe! *loves the praise, and the cuddle*
(D yeah!
^u^ mmh-hm. *nods in agreement* 0u0 have you two checked on Baby recently?
( | w | ) ( | x | ) *is thinking on whats been said* ( | w | )
[!~T] [!uT] how about instead of being helped by flowers, we go and help flowers. it might be nice to start picking and planting seeds. [!uT]

=[|||] *is taking a break*

7B3 "z?"
|/=U] zzz...
[:]o Oh! *wiggles out of Sophie's grip to run towards the turtle pen*
@/ weforgotagain...
*Baby is feeling a bit hungry and lonely but is otherwise fine*
Learning to take care of things, definitely needs some practice...
0~0 hm. 0u0 well its good we've got something to help give them that practice. ^u^
[!uT] ? wait, Baby? *Dots hasn't met Baby. she gets up to go look as well* ooh, a turtle. thats nice. [!uT]
( | w | ) *guesses that its turtle time, and goes to look at Baby to*

=[|||] ... =[|:|] *gets back to work, almost finished up*

7B? "z?" *is starting to wake up, his legs kicking about a little*
|/=U] zzz...
Doubly good that it's something so low-maintenance.
[:]D Yeah! *picks up Baby*
*Baby stretches out in response to being picked up*
@) babylikestobeheld. andturtletreats.
[!uT] And lettuces? *looking at slightly old lettuce in their pen* *holds out hands to hold Baby*
( | w | ) *figures that he can't hold baby, but likes looking anyway*
^u^ hmhm. *laughs a little bit* little things help with the bigger things.

7B3 "z? wkae?" 7B? "wake?" *is starting to stretch* 7B3

=[|:|] UmmM... *is looking for a power cord to connect to his machine, so it can get power. but all there seems to be over at Genral's work table is tiny safe reactors*
@) yeah,andlettuces.
[:]) *hands Baby over to Dots*
*Baby isn't too picky about who holds it*
Yes. *is content to sit and watch the others play with Baby*
[!UT] ["vY] *smiles funny* [!uT] hello Baby.
( | w | ) >:Can I give Baby a treat?;

0u0 0~0 mmh. I hope Onponn and Mack are doing well. 0u0

7B3 ? "whats goin on" 7B?

=[|:|] *searching through the stuff*

|/=U] zzz...
I hope so too.
[:]? *isn't sure what to make of the funny smile*
@D mommy,canwegivebabytreats?
Sure, I bet they'd like that.
( | W | ) *eagerly awaits the chance to give treats*
[!uT] *carefully holds Baby facing outward so feeding is easier*

^u^ they'd let us know if there was issue. 0u0 Hello Nyx. you missed story time.
7BO ! 7BP "Bluh."

*doesn't know the term, Do it your self*
|/=U] zzz...
[:]) *grabs the box of turtle treats and opens it*
@) *reaches in, gets a treat, passes it to Jofie*

DIYS? It's an acronym. It stands for "Do it yourself". So, yeah, it is about making things. *gets up* I can help you look. If there isn't a power cord, I'm sure we could alchemize one.
=[|(|] ThankyoU. =[|8|] CorD Make-findinG WitH AlchemeteR WoulD BE NicE.

( | W | ) *gently offers the treat, his hand held open*
[!uT] *carefully holds Baby up to the treat bearing hand*

0u0 So the AC is going nicely? ^u^

=[|8|] YeS.

7B3 ! 7BD *sees that its turtle time* 7B3

|/=U] zzz...
*glances around to see if a power cord is there that Marlow missed, or for someplace a power cord might be kept*

*Baby first nibbles at the treat, and then takes a bigger bite, taking it out of Jofie's hand*
[:]D Hehe! [:]) Baby's hungry.
@) *gets another treat from the box*
=:D Hey! we're back! =:)
][:] ... ][(] and, we've got you something Jofie. ][(]

( | w | ) ? ~!~ 'sniff-sniff!' ( $ ? $ ) !!! ( $ W $ ) >:the jackpot?!;
[!uT] [^^U] [!Tu] *Dots seems happy, continuing to hold Baby gently for Hamnet and Factor to feed them* [u!T] ... [~T!] ... [ERR] [!uT]

0~0 ... ^u^ what'd you get?
7BD "Yea! whats it?"

=:) a fancy looking lock. *Onponn uncapchalogs the ~Lock*
*its about basketball sized, and looks to be made of Gold. a ~Closed Eye design can be seen covering the sides of it... but, it almost feels like it could ~Open at any moment*

( $ W $ ) ...

=[|8|] HmmM? *has no idea whats going on*
*no power chords, but there are micro-reactors*

|/=U] zzz...
[:]? Jackpot?
@) *feeds Baby the treat. Baby is happy to snap it down as well*

*she wouldn't know what a micro-reactor is or how to use it anyway* We'll ask Mack what he thinks, buddy. *sees the lock* ...where'd you two get that?
][:] ][(] the place from earlier.
=:) I talked to Dots about what she was saying earlier, and I thought it would be nice if the day Dots came here would be remembered by something Great.
*after the, incident earlier, that would be quite the sour note to highlight the day Dots arrived. Onponn didn't want that to be the case, and talked things out to see if she could find some way of making things better thanks to Dots*

[!UT] *goes to set Baby back down in their pen*

=[|8|] SoundS GooD. =[|(|] HellO. =[|8|] CoulD YoU HelP US MacK AfteR... LocK ThinG?

][:] yea. I'll be right over. *starts headed to the work table*

0~0 mmmh... *is not totally sure of the things going on, but,* 0u0 *she does think it would be nice if today would be remembered for something nice*

7B? "looks weird."

|/=U] zzz...

( $ M $ ) >:jack·potˈjakˌpät/noun a large cash prize in a game or lottery, especially one that accumulates until it is won. synonyms: top prize, first prize; pool, kitty, pot, gold mine, bonanza "this week's lottery jackpot";

*Jofie's doomer instincts are hitting high levels of impulse. plenty going on to tell them to, 'take claim steal' with an object of this rarity and power*
*Baby looks over at Hamnet, who notices and sets down the treat box, reaching for Baby*
[:]) Want to keep Baby with us.
@? *looking at the lock; the two swapped their attentions pretty smoothly* goldjackpot...

*goes to pass Mack and join the part of the room looking at the lock* Marlow says you recommend a power cord for his project.
][:] *a brief snap-point of his fingers, pointing to the incomplete AC unit as he uses his other hand to slip his goggles on* ][8] should be easy. lets see what we've got here. ... oh, pthhh. well I guess. ][8] Genral has a handful of micro reactors for use. not your everyday kind of source, and not what I expected, but its an awfully convenient one. here, let me show you how to put it in Marlow. ][8]
=[|8|] ThankyoU.

=:) well, here goes. you can have this Jofie.

( $ M $ ) *warps over and spits out the other objects in his mouth, computer, apple, and berry, though keeping their arm and connection to their computer half, before snatching up the ~Lock*
*the eye on the ~Lock briefly snaps open, before looking like it had always been closed...*
*Jofie's Mind has been ~Unlocked*
( | ? | ) ? ... ( | w | ) >:huh; >:that felt funny;
0~0 0u0 so, your doing ok Jofie?
( | w | ) >:Yea; ( | x | ) *doesn't get why he needs to be asked if hes ok*

7B? *looking at the computer sitting upon the ground, which has crushed the Apple* "Guess your done with that." 7B3

[!uT] [!~T] oh. looks like you made a little bit of a mess. I'll get some napkins to clean that. [!uT] *gets up to do so*

|/=U] zzz...
