@) *quietly, in case the wary-of-spacey-stuff grownups are listening* wethinkit'scoolwhatyoucandonyx.

Hi, all. That's cool, Jofie, what's the picture of?

7B3 *quietly back,* "thankmew."

^u^ Hello! How are you two doing? 0u0 *takes a quick look at the blankets & stuff, not seeing anything worth alarm*

][:] *with Ribbon satisfied, he puts his wallet away*

=[|8|33] *drawing*

( | x | ) ( > W < ) *displays it on-screen, happy to show off* ( | W | )
>: Its an awesome half-grand Doomer!
>:See?; >:They have 13 feathers, and the best mechanics for their top half, & they get to go everywhere!; ( | W | )
[:]) We're good. [:]D Can we get a colorlight machine game?
@)

That is pretty awesome. *she doesn't love being reminded of the Grand Doomer, but she can keep a straight face here. It is a cool picture after all*
( | W | ) >:Yea!; *Jofie is really happy with how it turned out*

7B3 "there's already a color light machine game. And its pinball to. On the computer, remember?" 7B?

][:] well, if it's a Light game you're after, I've seen a few 'mirror beam' games before. not actually played any of them, so I can't vouch for how fun they might be, but who knows. could be great ][(]

=[|8|33] CameraS ArE FulL OF FuN MirroR BeaM ThingS! WE CoulD PlaY BuilD A CamerA.

0u0 *thinking over the possibility of putting together a 'Science Starter pack'. Mirrors, salt crystals, Baking soda volcanoes... It'd be a great activity for the kids*
[:]D Oh yeah! Computer pinball! *now it clicks that the thing on the TV and the thing on the computer are the same game from different viewpoints*
@)

*looking over at the TV* Hey, I think I know that show.
0u0 Is it any good?

7BD "yea!" 7B3 ... 7B? "but the episode is almost over."

( | x | ) >: Computer pinball?; ( | w | ) >: Oh yea, that sounds fun; *starts up a round of it on their computer*

=[|8|??] OH. NO CamerA MakinG GamE TheN.

][:] don't worry Marlow. I'll probably play with you later.
@) lightismadeofcolors!
[:]) *turns attention back to the TV to see how it ends*

*to Marlow* And if not today, then there's always another time.
*A cheesy line, & everyone laughing. Tv sure is something*

7B3 "hehe."

0u0 It is! seems like this is a great show. *she'll wait a little longer till after the credits to ask what they've learned*

=[|8|33] YeA.

( | w | ) *playing pinball*

][:] *fumbling through his wallets, searching for something*
@) welikeit.
[:]) [:]? *watching the credits* What's it say?

Need a hand with those, Mack?
0u0 It's saying the names of the people who worked to make it. ^u^ lots of people all working together to make lots of pictures and sounds all turn into a show.

][:] nah, I've... Got it! ][(] this place used to be a mine, & it used to have a couple 'bits & bobs' lieing about... Like this. ][:] *Mack happily shows off a large-ish clear quartz crystal. not real expensive, but good for looking nice & refracting light a bit* ][(]

7Bo ! 7B3 "oh cool. kept some."

=[|8|33] ... *with their eyes slightly tired, Marlow stops with the technical sketch* =[|||33] =[|:|33] OooH.

( | w | ) >: Pretty;
[:]? @? *they get up to go take a closer look at the thing in Mack's hands, and how it makes rainbows*
@D likeonthetv!

Yes, exactly!
][:] here. I figured to find it for you two. ][(] *Mack offers the housewarming gift*

0u0 that's nice. Thankyou Mack. ^u^

7B3 *doesn't want to mess with Hamnet & Factor sitting on him to turn off the TV, so Nyx disconnects from his lower half & hops over*

=[|:|33] *things are happy* ... *but also probably going to end off soon. one family will leave, the other will stay...* =[|:|3?]

( | w | ) *continues fiddling with his picture, 'looking' at it with their computer*
[:]) @) *they've gone over to look at the pretty rock*

*she doesn't know if Mack knows about the rocks from Earth and LORAW, she can't really remember showing or telling him--but another rock from another home is, for her, an especially touching gift. She takes the rock and turns it over in her hands so the colors change in the light* Thank you, Mack.
][(] No prob. ][:] *Mack doesn't really know. he just thinks it's a cool rock that the kids could think is even cooler after the show they just saw*

0u0 It's probably time to head home for Dinner.

7B? "aw..."

=[|:|?3] *adjusting to the idea of separate Dinners*

( | w | ) *doesn't really 'dinner', & is less concerned with it*
[:]? ...when are we coming back?

Well, I bet we're all going to play together again tomorrow sometime. After dinner, and sleeping. It'll be a new day.

@? @) *that doesn't sound too bad*
][:] sounds good to me. I'll talk to Onponn about it when she gets back.

7B3 "yea. maybe watch more Tv together then."

0u0 you two ready? *starts hovering towards the exit, ready to head home*

=[|:|?3] GoodbyE?

( | x | ) ?
[:]) Ready. *flies after Ribbon*
@? bye? *weird thing to say and do... time to try it out, though*

Have a good evening, everyone. *walking after them*
0u0 *time to head Home... it feels so good to think that. Ribbon double-checks that she has everything first. art stuff & the like... looks like it's all there*

*the others wave goodbye till you're out of sight*
*and the books, too. ABCs and all. If they didn't grab them can we retroactively say they did? I can't remember*

@) () @) *wiggles around to "wave" back--Hamnet's looking where they're going*
[:]? [:]) We're gonna see nighttime, right?

Right. Not too much of it though, staying up too late isn't that good for you.
0u0 *Ribbon was sure to get what was needed. no worries*

^u^ after we see night time is usually a good time to go to bed.

0u0 are you two up for trying to fly the way home?
