<La_ST> Okay, someone please do a recap

La_ST looks at Fix who always does this exceptionally well

<La_ST> Then please, do the honours, Rhi

<Rhiannon_D> In our previous episode of Etherites Go! ...

<Lady_Samantha> (Max had passed out and so has Sam2)

<_Lady_Samantha_> (we're at the hospital i think)

<Rhiannon_D> (gah, that's why I'm asking... if someone else is more certain, can he/she do the recap? I'm still busy recovering from my trip...)

<_Lady_Samantha_> (and rhi :)))

<_Lady_Samantha_> ( i was on a pile of painkillers back then i was quite capable of roleplaying the drowsy Lady Sam, though ;))

<Lady_Samantha> hospital was excaped from and Max took us to "home" to the sewer

<Lady_Samantha> where Max reverted after a little while, Sam 2 revived and then passed out again)

<Rhiannon_D> (Sam, please go on -_-)

<Lady_Samantha> Rhi was recharged at the hospital before the fight

<_Lady_Samantha_> (Reahcrged? BY WHAT!?)

<_Lady_Samantha_> (since when do hopitals have alien jumper cables :))

<Lady_Samantha> by my effect in the hospital (I did a procedure (prime2 Buzz) and got a 10 on 1d10 for points of Quint for her

<Lady_Samantha> *giggles* my sweety was in trouble and I remebered how she did a transfer by concentration and touch)

<La_ST> Well, it seems, Lord Whitefield then took Rhi and one SAm and ran away

<Lady_Samantha> nods -- I rememeber that, and then we got to the sewer, and Max reverted and Sam2 passed out

<Lady_Samantha> the blimp then closed and picked us up

<Lady_Samantha> so we're all togther again -- Max is human and Rhi is recharged

<_Lady_Samantha_> and the Reverend arrived with the revmobile and was picked up... unkonwgly to others Anna has summoned Nate...

<_Lady_Samantha_> (that's about it then ;))

<Lady_Samantha> that sounds right -- all together on the bl;imp

<_Lady_Samantha_> (Nate is on his way... he'll drop in later

:))

<Rev_Jones> (quick addendum, I arrived by taxi)

<La_ST> (Pretty expensive ^_^)

<Lady_Samantha> (maybe he billed his church?)

<_Lady_Samantha_> (maybe he's filthy rich)

<Rev_Jones> (if I was filthy rich I would have a better plane)

<Lady_Samantha> (*giggles* oh a TV preacher?)

<Rev_Jones> (A cup of sleep?)

<La_ST> (Well, a little *g*)

<Lady_Samantha> (a small amount)

<Lady_Samantha> (thats how I read it?)

Rev_Jones slept on the train.

<Lady_Samantha> hmmms - We still need to figure out just who Sam2 really is

Rev_Jones stretches.

<Rev_Jones> Is anyone up for a country walk? I could do with stretching my legs.

Rhiannon_D nods to him.

Lady_Samantha has to look after Max -- the transformation is pretty "draining"

<Rhiannon_D> I could use some exercise as well. I think some of the actuators on my legs need recalibration after yesterday's harassment.

<Rhiannon_D> That is, if we decide to approach the ground soon.

<Storytortillo> Rev... how did you find out where the others were and how did you head their way?

<Rev_Jones> 1. Fate

<Rev_Jones> 2. Game expediency

<Storytortillo> Okay :)

<David> (*g*)

<Rev_Jones> 3. I went to last known position, namely the Maxwell's estate.

<Storytortillo> Let's say you hada a line to call to get to them and were waitign for them at the estate

<Rev_Jones> 4. I used the telephone.

<Storytortillo> they will be eading to pick you up there

<Storytortillo> The group is at the Zeppelin... Anna should inform us where she decided to put them all as i don't think she wants the clones walking freely around her crib

<Lady_Samantha> I have to look after Max he is very weak after the reversion

<Storytortillo> That's not the point

<Rev_Jones> Sam: You are a very dedicated doctor. Most just prescribe the strongest antibiotic they can and go and file reports.

<Himiko> Both will be locked up in seperate rooms..

<Storytortillo> As for the status... Rhiannon feels okay, Maxwell feels worn out and a bit unfocused, Samantha is asleep, and the other Samantha is here

Lord_Maxwell is just spent, and there's not much a doctor can do about it... and besides.. I am a pretty good medic myself.

<Storytortillo> their own rooms or two unused up to now?

<David> (ST: is the fake one locked up?)

<Lady_Samantha> (I just meant I should be whereever Max is to look after him, I don't object to being under "house arrest")

<Storytortillo> Okay

<Storytortillo> Let's simplify this

<David> (btw, the fake one in #1 imo :-) )

<David> aye, lock them both up in rooms with a toilet and feed them twice a day

<David> in 2 different rooms mind you

<Rev_Jones> Otherwise me could get baby clones...

<Storytortillo> Currently everyone in the group is in the lounge of the Zeppelin... Sam 1 wearing her overalls and travelling kit is without any possesions and locked in a empty room with fresh sheets. Sam 2, the one in the dress and makeup is in empty room #2, she has been searched by Himiko (roll me a Perception + Alertness please) she has been put to bed by Rhiannon

<David> (ok, rooms with buckets)

<Storytortillo> (seen this bit?)

<Rhiannon_D> (just.)

Himiko rolled 3d10 dice and got: 8, 1, 3

<Rhiannon_D> (up to me putting sam2 in bed..)

<Storytortillo> Himiko you found nothing on her...

<Himiko> She's clean.

<Storytortillo> In the lounge, on the couchm, Lord Maxwell is lying down and is resting... he has a bottle of scotch near him and has been taking a few shots from the glasses

<Storytortillo> The Reverend has been called, and to avoid concentrating attention to the castle he took a cab and drove close enough for the Zeppelin to pick him up

<Lord_Maxwell> (no scotch, just sleeping)

<Lady_Samantha> (we're headed to which estate Max's or Mine?)

<Rhiannon_D> (since I got to put her in bed, and since I could/would check her out out of sheer curiosity, can I roll two? providing a good description as well?)

<Storytortillo> Maxwell's Estate is about 10 minutes from here at top speed of the Zeppelin

<David> Max's offcourse

<Storytortillo> The group is currently in the lounge and have brought the Reverend up to speed

<Rhiannon_D> (I an take a higher diff, since I'm not actively searching her, more like examining her somewhat.)

<Storytortillo> The clock on the wall says: 23:27

<Storytortillo> Begin

<Lady_Samantha> (Polly should be cloaked as well)

<Rev_Jones> (they have? I can't access Stayka's server)

<Lady_Samantha> (thst probably)

<Storytortillo> (i'll bring you up to speed)

<Doc_Helga> (Hm. strange. Checking)

<Storytortillo> So the stage is set and the players are there...

<Doc_Helga> (Works from here)

<Lady_Samantha> (Umms we're picking up Rev at Max's place, how is here if were are not there?)

<Rev_Jones> (We met in the middle)

<Storytortillo> (ahem... ST's law... he came to you and you are keepign a low profile! you don't know if the lord has been betrayed or nor)

Rhiannon_D walks around the lounge, hands resting behind her head, and casting the occassional glance at both Samanthas.

Lady_Samantha smiles to Rhi sweetly

<Storytortillo> AHEM

<Storytortillo> The two samantha's a are locked up in rooms and not near the lounge :)

<Storytortillo> (look up ;))

<Rhiannon_D> (f8ck. sorry)

David tinkers with clunk a bit

Rhiannon_D walks around the lounge, hands resting behind her head, and wondering about the two Samanthas.

Bill_Irvine puffs on one of his cigars and looks out

Lord_Maxwell sleeps deeply on the couch.

<Lady_Samantha> (ok - mee looks at the physical room, noteing electric fixtures )

Lady_Samantha also studies the door locking mechanism

<Storytortillo> (anna/Himiko if you will :))

<Storytortillo> (your ship, your layout and gadgets)

<David> (sam: do you mean outlets?)

<David> (fixtures are for stuff such as light-bulbs, outlets are for plugs)

<Himiko> (There's outlets for electric devices, lamps on the roof, and the walls are panels that can be moved to completely re-arrange this section of the ship... the doors are just that.. doors with a lock on them... nothing too fancy (in this section))

<Himiko> (lagging here for about a minute)

<Lady_Samantha> (the purpose is to see what it would take to unlock the door, (she has skill in pockpicking and an understanding of the Science of electricity)

<Lady_Samantha> (err thats lockpicking)

<Himiko> (This is an airship that can function as a cruise ship or a flying office.... there's no real tough locks here...)

<Himiko> (The flying part keeps out most unwanted guests, and entrances from the outside are secured a lot better)

Lady_Samantha rolled 1d10 dice and got: 1

Lady_Samantha *groans*

<Rev_Jones> Rhiannon, it looks like we are not going to be able to get outside very easily, but perhaps a stroll on the cargo deck?

<David> (mmm heavy lag here)

<Himiko> (at the moment you have a really good view of the outside world

<_Lady_Samantha_> ah yes Himiko, Bob, Rev , Bill you all realize that the appearaqnce of the two in the hospital will have probably raised suspicions of law enforcment and possibly... others

<Bill_Irvine> (Is my plane still on board?)

Lady_Samantha examines the locking mechanism and how it works, as well as does the door open in or out, is there a gap between the door asnd wall, (would a credit card work to open it)

Rhiannon_D nods in agreement to the Rev.

<Bill_Irvine> (it should be, shouldn't it`)

<Rhiannon_D> Yes, I think I'd like that better than circling the lounge for the 357th time.

<Himiko> (Yes, Sam, anyone with a little lockpicking capabillities can escape from that room...)

<Storytortillo> Bill your Plane is hanging from the lower side as usual

<Storytortillo> Now

Rev_Jones does not talk until they are away from the main group, on another level.

<Storytortillo> with the details done

<Storytortillo> the group is in the lounge and shoudl talk this through

<David> (sorry, talk what through?)

Bill_Irvine climbs down to his baby, checking it's flight capabilities and preparing for a sudden attack, if needed, puffing a cigar as usual

<_Lady_Samantha_> Which one is the right one and how to be sure?

<Rev_Jones> Rhi: I am trying to get my head straight.

<Storytortillo> 23:32 Says Mr. Clock

<Rev_Jones> Rhi: I go away for a few days and all I here talk about is clones and giants and strange events.

_Lady_Samantha_ is lying down on the cot and seems to be totally ravished by exhaustion

Rhiannon_D looks and smiles.

<Himiko> I'd say that the easiest way to be done with this is to kill them both..

<Rev_Jones> Cargo: I am sure God would have something to say about that.

<David> mmm tempting

<Doc_Helga> Well, I can't tell who is right or wrong

<Rhiannon_D> I can sympathize. I have been sleeping for what seems to be eternity, even for a machine, as you consider me, and when I wake up, everything is different.. and so much harder to comprehend.

Bill_Irvine inspects his plane and turns on the radar to follow any "suspicious" movements around the blimp

<Doc_Helga> I'm just a geophysicist, and not here too long to boot

<Rev_Jones> cargo: Hmm, yes despite your lack of soul I cannot think that you are in a far worse position than I am.

<Himiko> well we'll see about that..

<Storytortillo> There are none now... but one can never be too sure, Bill...

<Himiko> My radar is running too... it should pick up most movements, and we're out of the restricted flying zones at the moment...

Rhiannon_D sighs.

<Rev_Jones> Were things this chaotic before?

<Himiko> So.. how are we going to prove which is the real one

Lady_Samantha stands up and looks around her, is the bed solid of interleaves straps or what supports it?

<Rev_Jones> ...no I suppose you cannot remember.

<Rhiannon_D> I could easily explain your lack of soul, or at least the explanation of your "soul" in chemistry terms even a man of your trade would find inarguable. But this is neither my goal, or my wish.

<Himiko> if it's a clone then doing a simple DNA check isn't enough.

<Himiko> so we need something better.

<Himiko> Does any of you have a suggestion?

<Rev_Jones> Well, you could explain a bit of the makeup of these clones if you know it.

<Rhiannon_D> Rev: No, you killed and abused each other for far simpler, yet basic reasons. Similarly stupid ones, however.

<Doc_Helga> I'm afraid, medicine isn't my area of expertise

Rev_Jones breathes deeply and then coughs.

<David> we could still ask my collegues at the morge

<David> they have ... ways of finding out a lot about a set of bodies

<David> even if the bodies are alive

<Himiko> hmm

<Himiko> Isn't that fellow sleeping on the couch some kind of doctor himself??

<Rhiannon_D> Rev: Perhaps we should join the others.. we still have decisions to take, and I'd like to be there when that's done..

<Rev_Jones> True. True. I forgot how rash some of them are.

Rev_Jones walks briskly back.

Rhiannon_D follows him.

Rhiannon_D looks at the others talking.

<Rhiannon_D> Any improvements on the doctor?

<Storytortillo> The doctor seems to be fast asleep... he doesn't seem completley whacked like before

<Rev_Jones> (So who is _not_ in the room? Bill, Sam2, Max2. What about Sam1 and Max1?

Rhiannon_D raises an eyebrow at everyone's silence and sees for herself.

<Himiko> So.... what are we going to do?

<_Lady_Samantha_> (Max 2? there is only one MAx)

<Rev_Jones> (There is?)

<Rhiannon_D> well, he looks better than when *that* thing (*nods towards Clunk*) riddled him with chaingun rounds.

Lady_Samantha looks around the room to see what "Head" facilities are provided)

<Doc_Helga> Well, see to that guy our esteemed colleague from Paradigma talked about?

Rev_Jones thinks . o 0 ( So both maxes are not here, but we have one Sam... ).

David tinkers with clunk some more

<_Lady_Samantha_> (there are two Sam's and one Max... damn... we need Steve Purcell here PRONTO!)

Clunk plays the file: "Woof?"

Clunk looks at Rhiannon

Rhiannon_D shakes her head.

<David> (that always reminds me of Gaspode, the talking dog)

<Bill_Irvine> sits about in his cockpit puffing his cigar, staring at his radar. He lets out another puff of smoke then swears loudly hitting his chair, thinking he can't be that passive anymore. He gets up and fetches his tools. Opening the radar panel he checks the wires and cables, looking for the controls of the radar and how he could fit something in there. Then checks the upper space, if there is something free to put in some kind of console

<Rhiannon_D> Hm. the ones at the Morgue?

<Rhiannon_D> That could work. Although from what I've read, a morgue specializes in the death aspect of human life..

Lady_Samantha siles

<Himiko> hmm

<Rhiannon_D> Yes, Anna?

<Himiko> perhaps we should both kill them.. at least then we have a good reasons to drop them off at the morgue...

Himiko grins a bit sheepishly.

<Doc_Helga> I think that might be a bit rash

Rev_Jones looks around to see if anyone even vaguely agrees with Himiko.

<Doc_Helga> But we can render them unconscious

<Doc_Helga> Then they look like dead bodies, too

<Rhiannon_D> No, I was actually considering changing the examination procedure instead of their operation status..

<David> rhi, that is true, But there guys are also good in DNA analysis and other stuff. No need to cut them open ...

<Rhiannon_D> DNA analysis?

<Rhiannon_D> Clones should have matching DNA, no?

<Rhiannon_D> That is pretty much the point with cloning..

<David> I think so

<Doc_Helga> Hm.

<Doc_Helga> But shouldn't one be older?

<David> though these collegues of mine might have some better ideas about this

<Himiko> and it seems that both versions have the same memories too...

<Rhiannon_D> I can make a proposition, but only on the basis that noone (*glance at Nate*) starts questioning my purposes.

<Himiko> and from what I know about cloning... both versions are the same genetic age...

<Bill_Irvine> ACTION takes out a panel of metal and checks if the space should be enough. He then walks over to his workbench and starts fiddling with a the stuff around there. He opens up a box with reserve parts for his radar system and starts building them into the box, attaching wires to scanner objects, adjusting the setting not to scan for radio and radar frequencies, but to catch the special emmanations that come from specific elements and compun

Rev_Jones speaks quietly, "Or perhaps it would be more revealing to see if either of them has a soul..."

<Himiko> so that's not a point either..

<David> well an nuclear resonance scan might show something

...

<David> I am not the expert on this

<Storytortillo> (NATE is NOT here... yet ;))

<Himiko> so..

<Himiko> perhaps the doc there is more reasonable now... we weren't the most subtle in approaching him earlier..

<Storytortillo> (you and your soul :)9

<David> mmm there is a thought

<Rhiannon_D> Reverend Jones, may I again r3emind you that a "soul" as you define it, is non-existant, and merely a fabrication of your kind to elevate itself from all other living organisms. A clone should have the same set of basic chemical reactions in its mind as the source organism.

<David> Philosophically speaking the clone or copy wouldn't have one - but how do we detect this scientifically, Reverend?

<Himiko> I'm sorry to say this Rhiannon, but in this case your judgement is impaired... seeing how you are "personally involved" with one of them.

<Rhiannon_D> However, since they seem to have been receiving quite different stimuli in the recent past, I could perhaps discern these differences with a thorough neural scan.

<Rev_Jones> Rhiannon, your explanation is exactly the reason I believe that the soul is the key difference.

Himiko grins..

<Rev_Jones> The exact chemistry of these two people may be exactly the same and then there would only one way to prove anything.

<Rhiannon_D> There is a chance that the clone, whicever this is, will not have a memory extending before its creation.

<Himiko> How then did she know about their *points to the sleeping Lord* son..

Bill_Irvine fixes the wires and readers, checks the settings again and lets out another puff of smoke. He inserts a small holder for matter and attaches the scanners to it, so they can catch the matter's frequencies. An isolation lid is placed on top of the entry hole for the matter that will be subject to the scan, to keep out other matter emmanations that could mess up the readings. After that he checks the wirings again.

<Rhiannon_D> The exact chemistry of your minds is way to complex not to be affected by every single of infinite parameters influencing and changing your everyday lives and experiences, directly or indirectly. Thus no brain can exactly match another, even when initially identical.

<Himiko> Yes, and we are going to trust your opinion about this, when we know that your judgement will be impaired because of your "involvement" with one of them...

<Rev_Jones> There may be another way.

Rhiannon_D looks hard at Himiko

<Rhiannon_D> I am a machine, no, Anna?

<Rhiannon_D> I can switch off my bloody feelings, if need be.

<Rev_Jones> Tracing not the people, but their posessions.

Rhiannon_D looks away

<Rev_Jones> So can we, Rhiannon. We call people who do that psychopaths.

Himiko laughs

Rhiannon_D stares even harder at the Rev..

<Rhiannon_D> So, are they soulless psychopaths then, Reverend?

<Rhiannon_D> How strange for such humans to be created by your god.

Rhiannon_D stomps out of the room.

<Himiko> Rhiannon, please calm down, I'm not saying that you cannot be objective in this, I'm saying that it will be hard for us to believe that you are objective in this...

Bill_Irvine fixes some small parts here and there, makes sure the wires wont entangle and go loose. After that he adds the plugs to attach the scanner to the radar system. Another quality check going through everything again, testing the readings, checking every signal is going where it should go and none of the powering wires are broken and are strong enough to keep going while powering the scanner.

<Rev_Jones> Oh no. Even the worst human has a soul, tainted though they may be.

<Himiko> So...

<Himiko> we have three plans here..

<Himiko> well four if you count in throwing them both overboard at the moment... but I don't think we are going to do that now..

<Himiko> Plan One: Bring them to the morgue that David suggested and let them figure it out.

<Doc_Helga> Well, I'm for getting them to that doctor at the morgue

Rhiannon_D is already out of the room, walking with a pace increasing with every step, until she's running through the ship, not knowing where she's going.

<Himiko> Plan Two: Let the Sleeping Lord here figure out which one is his Sam, seeing how we messed up our initial introduction.

<Doc_Helga> Hm.

<Himiko> Plan Three: Have Rhiannon find out which one is which...

Rhiannon_D finally stops in front of the B52, tilting her head at its sight.

<Doc_Helga> Could work, too...or not.

<_Lady_Samantha_> (that would be over and not in front... it's too big to be in the hangar so it's hanging latched on the lower part)

<Doc_Helga> What about a combination? First let Rhi chose. Then give the Lord-guy the pick, and afterwards to a Scientific evaluation?

<Rev_Jones> Why not try all three, with independant witnesses.

<Himiko> hmm that could work..

<Bob_Grant> But if we combine the stuff... how doe we know which one is correct?

<Bob_Grant> what if we get different results?

Rhiannon_D taps the hull slightly.

<Bob_Grant> we can't be sure then....

<Doc_Helga> Well, if we get different results, we can still lock them away and throw away the key

<Rev_Jones> In order for this to be an accurate scientific study, Rhiannon, Lord Maxwells and David will have to be kept seperate.

<Doc_Helga> I think to be 100% sure, all choices should match

<Bob_Grant> and what about Lord... bash things when angry?

Bill_Irvine shouts from under the panel "What?!"

<Doc_Helga> With only one positive result we could never be sure anyway

<Himiko> good point, so we have a plan..

<David> I agree

<Lady_Samantha> (*grins* lets lock up everyone :))

<Rev_Jones> I agree too.

<Doc_Helga> So first Rhiannon

<Rhiannon_D> Hello William. I was wondering if I could help you in any way...

<Rev_Jones> And I will also request a sample of clothing from all four.

<David> right, I'll bugger off and look after the lord a bit then

<Lady_Samantha> (err 3?)

<Doc_Helga> Good. Do you need help?

<Rev_Jones> Actually David, that is not a good idea.

Bill_Irvine shouts again, this time louder "What is it?" and gets back to work.

<Rev_Jones> And in fact, since Rhiannon seems rather put out, should we not ask the Lord first.

<Bob_Grant> How will clothes help?

Rev_Jones winks. "I have a backup plan."

<Bob_Grant> if they are kwones then aren't their Deynay same and then their clothes are same?

<Doc_Helga> A backup?

<Bill_Irvine> I'm almost done here... Just added a little more extra to my plane... I want to scan something.

<David> Reverend?

<Bill_Irvine> But my name is "Bill"

Rhiannon_D smiles.

<David> why is that a bad idea?

Bob_Grant is a bachelor of archeology he has no bloody clue about DNA or genetics :)

<Rhiannon_D> Abbreviated, it is.

<Rev_Jones> Well, I should be able to trace the history of these clothes. I think.

<Doc_Helga> Sounds interesting. How?

Bill_Irvine takes the last bunch of cables and wires and adds joins them with some monochrome displays in the panels, so that the reading from the scanner can be displayed on them.One last time he checks if everything is set in place nad fixed and crawls out from the panel, closing it after he is done

<David> mmm, and how does that require me staying?

<Bill_Irvine> Do you remember something? Something we are missing?

<Rev_Jones> I am not totally sure of it myself. Something to do with the way time leaves a pattern.

<Rhiannon_D> as for the new scanner array, I think it's great. I feel nearly handicapped with half of my sensors gone.

David rips off a piece of his jacket and gives it to the Reverend

Rhiannon_D looks at Bill questioningly..

<Himiko> Yes, I'm curious why you need David's jacket too?

<Rhiannon_D> Bill Something regarding what topic?

Rev_Jones looks slightly taken aback.

<Rev_Jones> No, no. Just from the four Maxwells.

Bob_Grant look quite confused

<Bill_Irvine> Regarding the topic of a bunch of piece-o-shits handing our asses down to us in the jungle

<Rhiannon_D> ( +: )

<Himiko> Four Maxwells?

Rhiannon_D sighs.

<Himiko> There's only one of them..

<Bob_Grant> four Maxwells?

<Bob_Grant> where?

<Rhiannon_D> I know for certain that they seemed to know about..

<Lady_Samantha> (3 Whitefields, 1 Maxwell)

<Bob_Grant> more clones?

Rhiannon_D sighs again, angrier this time.

<Bob_Grant> Eek!

<Rev_Jones> Now I am confused.

<Rhiannon_D> How the hell did they know they'd have to use electrical charge weaponry?

<Lady_Samantha> (welcome to the club :))

Bob_Grant points to the man sleeping

<Bob_Grant> This is Maxwell!

Rhiannon_D looks at bill then starts talking fast.

<Rev_Jones> Sam and Lord Maxwell are married, and there are two of each, yes?

<Lady_Samantha> (even Bob got that one)

Bill_Irvine starts to check the radars setting, if the signals from the scanner arrive clearly and no isolation is broken. After being satisfied he starts meddling with the radar settings, adjusting them to get more readings if needed, so he can change frequencies to be scanned.

<Bill_Irvine> I can't tell you... But we are literally missing something about them here...

<Himiko> No, there's just this guy, and our two clones..

<Himiko> He did do a Hulk act though..

<David> no

<David> there is one lord maxwell

<David> and 2 samantas

<Lady_Samantha> (RIGHT)

<Rhiannon_D> The ones raiding the Zep had ballistic weaponry and entry armor, while all the group waiting outside were loaded with electricity guns, outfitted in heavy armor, everything!

<Rev_Jones> How is it that you can get into so much trouble in just a few days?

<Himiko> so..

<Bill_Irvine> Well yes... But I said "Literally" missing. Think of it. You were with me...

<Bob_Grant> (Rhi and Bill -> #Bills plane now, Stayka i'm logging)

Sidestory - In Bill's Plane

<Rev_Jones> I think that David, Rhiannon and Lord Maxwell should keep their hearts and mouths from each other until we have three conclusions.

<Bob_Grant> ummm

<Bob_Grant> Why David?

<Rev_Jones> Because it is his lab. Surely that is obvious?

<David> it's the lab of my collegues

<Himiko> So, we have a plan now..

<Rev_Jones> But you are our contact there.

<Bob_Grant> isn't t his friends?

<David> but sure I'll bugger off to somewhere, I'll go tinker with clunk

<Himiko> okay, where do we go now?

<Storytortillo> Start with the Lord?

<Bob_Grant> Start With the Lord?

<Bob_Grant> He's here

<Doc_Helga> Well, sure

<Himiko> I really don't like hanging around here... there are people who will have noticed the two Samantha's and the Amazing Hulk walking into the hospital... and there are people whose attention we don't want to attract...

<Doc_Helga> We need some decisive answers about the two SAms

<Doc_Helga> Well, can you cloack your zeppelin?

<Doc_Helga> Then we should move a live away cloaked

<Rev_Jones> Ann...Himiko, why don't you take David and set a new course for us?

<Himiko> Yes, it can cloak...

<Himiko> but I know that I did not design the cloaking device..

<Himiko> I know how to fix it, when it's broken....

<Himiko> but as I did not design it, there's a chance that there's people who can find us because of it..

<Doc_Helga> Hm...

<Doc_Helga> I could take a look at it - maybe I can slightly modify it

<Himiko> so... where do we go?

<Doc_Helga> Hm... Someplace where no one would run accidentally into the ship

<Rev_Jones> Why not a suitable place to start triangulating Helga's underground mines?

<Himiko> Okay, I will drop everybody on their respective locations... and stay around, but on the move..

<Himiko> David with samples of the two people we have here..

<Himiko> Lord Whitefield and his two wives at their mansion, with someone to guard them..

<Himiko> and the rest of you wherever you want to be dropped off..

<Bob_Grant> is that Safe?

<Bob_Grant> and what about me?

<Doc_Helga> Well, I still need to repair the Surtr, and I doubt you have the time to drop me at Iceland, so I will just stay here, if you don't mind

<Rhiannon_D> (we could drop him out from this height, since he knows too much ^^)

<Himiko> Iceland is only a few hours away, I can drop you there..

<Doc_Helga> (Heh)

<Himiko> well Bob, what European country would you like to see

<Bob_Grant> ... ummm

<Bob_Grant> I'd rather go back to the States

<Doc_Helga> (at 200km/h, crashing into the ground?)

<Bob_Grant> my Mommy todl me Europeans were not very nice

<Rev_Jones> That sounds like a good plan.

<Bob_Grant> seeing with these kwones crap i think i'll agree

<Bob_Grant> but the doc...

Bob_Grant looks down suddenly shutting up

<Doc_Helga> Well, as we might need my Earthship running properly to do something about the mines, it might be a good idea if you could drop me at my lab

<Himiko> okay, I can do that..

<Doc_Helga> Great

<Bob_Grant> ...she said we'd go to important palces in history and note things down... then i'd probably liek Europe...

Bob_Grant sounds sad and whiny

Himiko puts a hand on Bob's shoulder.

<Rev_Jones> Actually, if you have lab space, I will come and join you. Perhaps if I can help you between shifts.

<Doc_Helga> I need a couple of days and she's fine again.

<Himiko> I'm sure that in our adventures we will catch those that are to blame for the Doctors death..

<Himiko> So David, where is this lab of yours?

<Bob_Grant> ...

<David> in London

<Himiko> and what kind of samples do you need from our two clones?

<David> at one of the morgues

<David> some tissue samples

<Doc_Helga> (BTW, did the Surtr fit into your cargo space? Then I would just need to get some spare parts and could to the repairs there)

<David> and taking them in for some scans would be nice

<Himiko> hmm.. that'll become harder..

<Bob_Grant> (i think it did... there was room for both it and Warp)

<Doc_Helga> Well, I guess it might even suffice if I just get my tools and spare parts from my Lab

<David> Hell, add some urine, vaginal swap, mouth swap, hair, and so on

<David> the more the better

<Himiko> (no, not that much room... Warp was flying home with Nate back then...)

<Himiko> okay.. can you take those samples?

<Bob_Grant> (Warp landed with the rescued people when Surtr landed...)

<David> well, sure

<Bob_Grant> (dunno)

<Himiko> take your samples, we'll be in London shortly..

<Bob_Grant> ...

<Bob_Grant> what about me?

<Bob_Grant> where will you leave me?

Bob_Grant is still silent

<David> this will be ... interesting

David goes to sam #1

<Himiko> Well, Bob, what do you want to do?

<Rev_Jones> Bob, nobody is leaving you anywhere.

<Storytortillo> 00:47 Says Mr. CLock

<David> right I need: a piece of hair, a urine sample, a vaginal swap, a mouth swap, a tissue sample and a piece of one of your your nails

<David> ow and a bloodsample offcourse

<Lady_Samantha> (are you visiting?)

Bob_Grant looks up at David and looks aghast

<Rev_Jones> Trust me, Bob. This is civilised medicine.

David produces a collection of tubes, swabs, labels, bekers, and a syringe

<David> (yes)

Rev_Jones laughs a big red laugh.

<Himiko> Bob, what do you want to do?

<Bob_Grant> ...

<Lady_Samantha> th whole point was to show you'all that I'm not a threat and will cooperate

<Bob_Grant> i think i wanna go home and get some of ma's Gumbo

<Bob_Grant> ...

<Bob_Grant> since that cannot go

<Bob_Grant> i'll go to bed

<Bob_Grant> unless you want me off...

<David> may I?

David takes Lady_Samantha's arm, and ties a band around her upper arm

<Rev_Jones> Make sure you have a nice mug of cocoa before you go to bed. It will calm your dreams.

David takes the syringe

<Bob_Grant> yeah... sure...

Bob_Grant raises hismelf and slowly goes down the corridor

<Lady_Samantha> I can get the samples, I'd prefer to have a female "nurse"

<David> yes, moment

David takes the sample

<Lady_Samantha> *sigh*

<Lady_Samantha> are you hearing me?

David puts the sample in a tube, corks it and labels it "blood, Sam #1"

<Storytortillo> (How smart is it sending David to Sam 2? he freaked her out once already...)

<Rev_Jones> I will take my leave briefly, as I am sure will David and.

<David> well, do you need a female "nurse" for the nails, mouth-swap, tissue sample and so on?

<David> only for the vaginal swap right?

Rev_Jones wanders out.

Lady_Samantha will resist then - if you refuse to allow me a female observer

<David> I'll take the rest now and then ask Himiko or Helga for help

<David> (wtf?)

<Lady_Samantha> *sighs deeply*

<David> I'll keep it decent, I am not a doctor. Now SHUT UP

<David> you'd think I was forcing you to strip or something

<David> *grumble*

<Doc_Helga> Well, I can observe, but I'm not an MD

Lady_Samantha rolled 5d10 dice and got: 1, 9, 9, 8, 9

<David> (for what?)

<_Lady_Samantha_> AS you went closer to her and started to apologize she pushes you aside banging you on the wall and placing her hands before her... you bumped your head but were not hurt...

<Storytortillo> AS you went closer to her and started to apologize she pushes you aside banging you on the wall and placing her hands before her... you bumped your head but were not hurt...

<David> right, this might hurt a bit

<Storytortillo> Hey You i nthe lounge...

<Lady_Samantha> I'm sorry, I did repeatedly ask you to get one of the women

David walks to sam #1 and tries to get her on the ground with her arms behind her back

<Storytortillo> you hear sounds of a scuffle where David went

<Lady_Samantha> *sigh* are you going to make you stop?

Lady_Samantha rolled 5d10 dice and got: 5, 3, 9, 1, 10

David rolled 4d10 dice and got: 8, 1, 6, 9

<Himiko> What the...

Himiko heads over the the living area

<Lady_Samantha> down by 1 I think?

<Storytortillo> She fights like a cornered tiger but you manage to jump behind her and force her to her knees with her hands behind her back

<Storytortillo> (strength both of you)

<Storytortillo> (to see if he keeps you down)

<David> (5)

<Lady_Samantha> would you want a non-medical female examining/sampleing you?

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 1, 9, 1

<Lady_Samantha> *sigh*

<Storytortillo> Ouch...

David rolled 5d10 dice and got: 6, 4, 7, 8, 1

<Storytortillo> Samantha sa you fight he pushes down in the same moment you try to pull free and he twists your hand.. it hurts like hell

<Lady_Samantha> (str 5?)

<David> (yes)

<Himiko> (he's a cyborg)

<Lady_Samantha> ah

<Storytortillo> (2 bashing to the wrist... it almost broke)

<Storytortillo> You feel like a vise grabbed your wrist and you cannot move your wrist... it hurts like hell though

David calls "some help in here !"

Rev_Jones rushes back in.

Himiko has heard the noise that didn't belong to her Zeppelin's natural sounds... and arrives

<Himiko> What the hell are you two doing here..

<Lady_Samantha> *sigh* would you mind helping me with samples, that is all I asked

<David> she attacked me, and I restrained her

<Lady_Samantha> he refused to ask you or Rhi or Doc

<Himiko> ah..

<Storytortillo> You see David standing over her holding her down and looking a bit flushed

<Rhiannon_D> (^_^)

<David> (flushed? why?)

<David> (that was no big excertion)

<Lady_Samantha> she defended herself from an attacker (who ended up winning anyway)

<Lady_Samantha> Himico?

<Storytortillo> (when she pushed yo uaway and you hit your head)

<Lady_Samantha> would you mind helkping me?

<Himiko> With what?

<Lady_Samantha> obtaining the requested samples. I prefer a woman to a non-medical male

<David> for the record, I do have medical training

<Lady_Samantha> I'd also appreciate the use of my medical bag to treat this injury

<Lady_Samantha> (2 is a medic -- not a nurse or a doctor

<Rev_Jones> David, why don't you and I wait in the corridor.

<Rev_Jones> I am sure Himiko can handle herself.

<Lady_Samantha> thank you Rev

<David> Himiko, I already have a bloodsample, could you take a mothswap, vaginal swab, heirsample, nailsample and tissuesample for me?

<David> (you do not know that)

<Himiko> A what?

<David> you heard me

<David> the stuff you need is over there

<Lady_Samantha> (are you saying your calling yourself a doctor?)

<Himiko> well sure, I can take those samples..

<Rev_Jones> (Sam: he said what he said)

<_Lady_Samantha_> (i'm scared)

<Lady_Samantha> Rev thank you - Himiko the sampling materials are over there (points)

<Himiko> ehrm..

<David> right, you ladies have fun

Rev_Jones follows David out the door.

<Storytortillo> (LOL)

David grins

Himiko is a bit flushed

Lady_Samantha closes door

<Storytortillo> (it's the Rev's fault)

<Rhiannon_D> (ROFL)

Lady_Samantha collects the stuff and put it on the bed

<Himiko> okay, the hairswap first..

<Lady_Samantha> OK - what do you need?

<Himiko> hair sample is simple I think.

<Rev_Jones> (It's MY fault? How?)

Lady_Samantha takes sample and puts it in a test tube

<Himiko> sorry, Sam, but you know more about this than I.. can't have you giving us bad samples..

<Himiko> just tell me what to do.

Lady_Samantha takes a nail sample and put that in a new test tube

<Lady_Samantha> (obviously hair and nails don't require medical knowledge)

<Rev_Jones> David: Even in the country we get women like that.

<David> (don't understand her problem with me taking the samples (except offcourse the vaginal one) )

<Himiko> (well the hair one does... hair samples require the folicle to be attached still)

<David> I don't get her problem

<Lady_Samantha> nods you need the living part for DNa

<David> I wasn't doing anything weird

<Rev_Jones> Women are very defensive of their bodies. And you only need to see a band of drunken men on a Saturday night to see why.

<Lady_Samantha> I take the swap envolope and peel it back

<Lady_Samantha> hand it to Himiko

<Lady_Samantha> the idea here is to get cell samples on the swab

<Rhiannon_D> (*whines in defence of half-drunken men on a Saturday night ^_^)

<Lady_Samantha> inside of cheek works

Himiko takes the mouth swap without much trouble..

Lady_Samantha open her mouth for the swap

<Lady_Samantha> put it in sterile test tube

<Lady_Samantha> what next

Himiko puts the stick in the test tube.

Himiko labels it #sam 1

<Himiko> Well we need a tissue sample now..

<Himiko> and if I'm not mistaken that means cutting out a little bit of your skin..

<Lady_Samantha> (/me is not sure what that entails)

<Storytortillo> Yep you need to cut a small part of the epidermis...

<David> (cut a piece of living skin from wherever)

<Storytortillo> you can use a scalpel for that... a knife or find a set that actulyl clips of a piece of the skin and then contians it in a small sterile jar

<Lady_Samantha> ok wipe skin to make sure the sample

<Rhiannon_D> (yep, the skin under or next to the fingernails should work.. I usually eat that myself ^_^)

<Rev_Jones> (Or do what all good medical students do: look and sound if you are doing something and pray afterwards that you got it right)

<Lady_Samantha> ok

<Lady_Samantha> what have we got to use?

<Himiko> (Rhi, that's callused.. that is not living anymore..)

<Himiko> there's a scalpel here..

<Himiko> well what do I need to cut?

<Lady_Samantha> (well I telel what she needs to know, as *I* don;t)

Himiko takes a bit of cleaning alcohol, prepares the bandages that will be needed..

<Storytortillo> I do... i liekd to read my mom's medical books as a kid :) you need the Epudermis... that means the outer layer of the skin... wherever you want... just avoid dead skin, so you'll need to first swab it with alcohol or somethign to clean the dead folicules

Lady_Samantha asks if it would better for me to do it under her supervision?

<Himiko> please go ahead..

<Rhiannon_D> (Stab her in the eye with the scalpel!!!!)

<Rhiannon_D> (GOGOGOGO!!! KILL! KILL!!!)

Lady_Samantha takes some alchohol to swab the site

<Lady_Samantha> (what are you up to taking lessons from Himiko

;))

<Rev_Jones> (yes, you should get a good DNA specimen from the eye.)

Lady_Samantha cuts a bit of skin and places it in a sterile jar

<Himiko> Quick question, what is my last name?

<Storytortillo> (he just told you your name... no surname)

<Lady_Samantha> (Isdheet says Mihakai)

Lady_Samantha bandages the site and asks whats next

<Himiko> (I don't know my last name... the guy in the Zeppelin only used my first name)

<David> (only one swab left *g*)

Lady_Samantha looks over the remaining sample equipment

<Himiko> ehrm, the... ehrm....

Himiko turns red as a beet

<Lady_Samantha> I hate them too

Lady_Samantha sits on the bed and tries to relax (what do I roll?)

<Lady_Samantha> (a bit of meditation +??)

<Rev_Jones> (Wits + Composure?)

<Storytortillo> Roll what?

<Himiko> You should take of your overall first and panties first probably..

<David> (don't forget the equipment to hold it open

<David> (for a good sample :-) )

<Lady_Samantha> trying to center myself... wits+meditation?

<Lady_Samantha> int? stm? dex?

<Storytortillo> Vaginal swabs include you taking your panties off spreading your legs and Himiko using a swab to go and then swab on the outer part... and why it would be necessary really is not my problem you deal with Qadn on that :)

<Lady_Samantha> (ok - she's centered)

Lady_Samantha removels outer and under clothing

<Lady_Samantha> and site on edge of bed, legs spread

<_Lady_Samantha_> hmm mactualy not the outer part

<_Lady_Samantha_> you need to swab the inside says Wiki

<Rev_Jones> (Actually, a true "swab" actually involves more than just a quick swipe. Thank Jo Brand for that bit of knowledge.)

<David> (actually, the deep inner part. and you DO NOT want contact with any urine, therefore you use some sort of opening device)

<David> (ooh Jo Brand)

<_Lady_Samantha_> (woo hoo :))

Storytortillo just sits back and lets the experts explain the procedure... who is he to fight with scientific truths

<Lady_Samantha> nods

Himiko is red as a beet

<Himiko> ehrm..

<David> (and missing the implement, I guess himiko will have to use her hands)

<Lady_Samantha> (Himiko your on screen)

<Rev_Jones> (And most women can take it, but they tend not to feel to happy with themselves afterwards for some reason.)

<Lady_Samantha> is there a mirror in the room?

<Himiko> if I understand this procedure correctly, I need to use my ... hand... to open you up, and use my other hand to take the swap .......... *stammered out red as beet*

<Lady_Samantha> nods (remember I'm a doctor myself)

<Himiko> (nope no mirrors here)

<Himiko> ehrm...

<Lady_Samantha> so much for that idea

<Himiko> I...

<Rev_Jones> (Yes, in those days it was not standard practice for all women to have smear tests, and since none of you women have ever been pregnant.... complete novices.)

Lady_Samantha suggests you use disposable gloves

<_Lady_Samantha_> (actually we have only two women here...)

<David> (mmm latex, kinky)

<Rev_Jones> (I thought Helga was with you?)

<Rhiannon_D> (ROFLMAO)

<Lady_Samantha> me wonders how she had a son without being pregnant

<Himiko> It's not the glove thing actually..

<Himiko> It's just well..

<Lady_Samantha> must have been a Scientific! experiment ;)

<Rev_Jones> (ah, forgot that... ok, in which case you will almost certainly have had a deep probe before.)

Himiko thinks: "This feels so wrong."

<Lady_Samantha> perhaps you ask Rhi to do the procedure?

<Lady_Samantha> could

<Himiko> okay, here goes...

Himiko performs the procedure to the best of her abillity.

<Rev_Jones> (Actualy, Sam, you should be able to do it yourself...)

<Lady_Samantha> I was thinking that

<Lady_Samantha> but its done

<Rev_Jones> (Not that I would want to, had I had that anatomy)

<Lady_Samantha> all the sames are collected

<Lady_Samantha> samples

<Rhiannon_D> (Hm. toys with toys...)

<Himiko> Sorry I had to do this.

Lady_Samantha dresses

<Himiko> I think that a bullet would be much less embarrassing to the both of us.

<Lady_Samantha> I would appreciate the use of my medkit to treat my injurys

<Himiko> I will see to it that you receive it..

Rhiannon_D rolled 3d10 dice and got: 4, 9, 9

<Lady_Samantha> thank you

<David> (urine)

<Himiko> oh.. the urine sample.. there's a bathroom down the hall..

Lady_Samantha takes cup and wipes and follows Himiko to the bathroom door

Bill_Irvine rolled 3d10 dice and got: 8, 5, 10

<Lady_Samantha> fortunately i have to go anyway :)

Lady_Samantha enters bathroom, do I need an observer here too?

<Himiko> I'm staying outside..

Lady_Samantha closes door, then

<David> (well, you don't have ready acces to other urine I presume, and if it isn't urine you are guilty :-) )

<Lady_Samantha> again gets out of jumpsuit (boy they can be a nuscience)

<Himiko> Reverend, can you get her the medical bag, it seems that David has hurt her a bit worse than it looks..

<Himiko> and stay with her while she treats herself..

Lady_Samantha removes panties and sits (performing a "clean catch" retreival)

<Himiko> and take the bag with you again when she's done.

Lady_Samantha (you hear a long stream ...)

David goes to sam #2

<David> Samantha?

<Lady_Samantha> and then I redress again and return sample to Himiko

_Lady_Samantha_ is asleep on the bunk

Himiko hands over the samples to David..

<Lady_Samantha> I return to my "cell" and await my medkit's delivery

<Himiko> these are of number one..

<David> thanks himiko, could you label them?

<Himiko> ehrm..

<David> Samantha?

<_Lady_Samantha_> ...huunh... Max?

<Himiko> that one is a mouth swap and the other one is the vaginal swap.

<Himiko> and I will hurt you badly for doing this to me.

<David> no, it's david I am afraid

David labels the samples

<David> Samantha, we require some samples of you for testing

<David> would you mind me taking some of them?

_Lady_Samantha_ twitches and rises up to a sitting positzion and starts going back towars a corner

<_Lady_Samantha_> (of the bunk)

<_Lady_Samantha_> What will you do to me?

<_Lady_Samantha_> Where' MAx?

<_Lady_Samantha_> What did you do to him?

<David> he is sleeping

_Lady_Samantha_ seems terrified

<David> we wouldn't harm you or him

Lady_Samantha checks my door, is it locked?

<David> I am terribly sorry for all this, but it can't be helped unfortunatly

<_Lady_Samantha_> You shot me... and that... thing shot me!

<_Lady_Samantha_> you threatned Max's boy... i'd do anything to make you leave him and max...

<_Lady_Samantha_> Just don't hurt them...

_Lady_Samantha_ is still in the corner and her eyes are wide open...

<David> I won't

<Himiko> Don't worry, we won't harm you.... yet...

<David> uhm, we need the basic set of samples

Lady_Samantha checks my door, is it locked?

<_Lady_Samantha_> (sorry on that... our son goes up there... i was working with some wrong info

<David> so blood, urine, hair, tissue, mouth, vaginal

<_Lady_Samantha_> )

<Himiko> (why, are you going to try and escape??)

<_Lady_Samantha_> Okay...

<_Lady_Samantha_> what will happen if i give those?

<David> for that last one Himiko is here.

<_Lady_Samantha_> can i go back to Max?

Rev_Jones stops day-dreaming about souls and goes back to retrieve Sam's medical bag.

<David> yes soon

_Lady_Samantha_ sighs

<_Lady_Samantha_> I can give you all of those...

<_Lady_Samantha_> Would you mind me taking the urinal and Vaginal samples in private?

<_Lady_Samantha_> I could use a mirror

<_Lady_Samantha_> and maybe something strong to calm my nerves...

<David> I wouldn't mind

<_Lady_Samantha_> Thank you...

<Himiko> not in private, but you can take them yourself if you want.

_Lady_Samantha_ still sees m afraid but has started to rleax... they are not violent... maybe this will be resolved properly...

Rev_Jones takes the bag to wherever Sam disappeared off to.

<David> Himiko, could you ask the Reverend for a glass of drink?

Rev_Jones knocks on the door.

<Himiko> you go ask..

<Himiko> I'll watch her..

<Rev_Jones> (What am I, a slave?!)

<Himiko> and sees to it she doesn't do anything funny.

<David> can either of you take a blood sample?

Lady_Samantha checks my door, is it locked?

<David> that is the difficult one

<David> ( Lady_Samantha: even if it isn't you can easily pick it, so this is not an issue)

Lady_Samantha hears kocking... tries to open door

Rev_Jones gives Sam a hand from the other side!

<Lady_Samantha> knocking

<Rev_Jones> It's just me.

<Lady_Samantha> come in

<Rev_Jones> I came to see if you were alright, and I brought your medical bag.

<Lady_Samantha> thank you.

Rev_Jones : screech.

<Rev_Jones> How are you feeling?

<Lady_Samantha> I seem to be surviving. I'm sorry if I upset David, but I prefer a female practitioner

<Himiko> Sam: What is the last name I gave you?

<_Lady_Samantha_> (actualy you don't need any actual medical help... it just hurt as hell and will be sore for a while)

<Lady_Samantha> actually, Himiko did a good job, not having any background to workwith

<David> right, I'll go ask the Reverend then

<Rev_Jones> Well, where I come from medical care is mostly done by the women anyway.

<Lady_Samantha> Mihakai

<Storytortillo> 01:25 Says Mr. Clock

<Himiko> (okay, I am asking the other Sam... and no, I don't even know the Mihakai part myself...)

<Rev_Jones> It is an unwise doctor who does wrong by our folk.

Lady_Samantha takes bag and addresses her various hurts

<Lady_Samantha> (thats what was on your char sheet)

<Rev_Jones> (yeah, well the PCs cannot see the character sheets)

<Himiko> (Yes, and that's what YOU saw, not lady samantha Whitefield-Smith)

<Lady_Samantha> (nods, but thats what it said)

<Lady_Samantha> yes

<Lady_Samantha> I should have added ()'s

<Himiko> Sam: What is the last name I gave you?

<Rev_Jones> (br)

<David> Reverent?

<Rev_Jones> In here.

<Lady_Samantha> I take a First-Aid patch and apply it as a curatative

<David> aah, could you give me some drink?

<David> Sam #2 wants a drink to calm her nerves

<Rev_Jones> Not really at the moment. Can't you nip to the kitchen yourself?

<Lady_Samantha> is Rev still hear?

<Lady_Samantha> here

<Rev_Jones> (yes, I am speaking in your chamber)

<David> sure

David goes to the kitchen, gets a drink, then gives it to sam #2

<David> then I bugger off again

<Himiko> (no alcohol in the kitchen)

<David> right,

David goes back to the reverend

Lady_Samantha notes her wound from her tissue sample heals, and the pain from the injury and swap subside

<David> Reverend? there is no drink in the kitchen

<_Lady_Samantha_> to what?

<Rev_Jones> We are out of water?

<_Lady_Samantha_> I wouldn't know

<_Lady_Samantha_> you never introduced yourself to me...

<David> no, she needs a _drink_, not something to drink

<David> something with a tad of alcohol

Lady_Samantha offers a tranq if wanted

<Rev_Jones> Oh! You mean that kind of drink. All I have left is what is in my flask. I did not think we would need more.

Rev_Jones passes David a flask.

<Himiko> I did, don't you remember?

<Rev_Jones> (hip flask)

<David> thanks reverend

<Rev_Jones> (hey, he spelt it right!)

_Lady_Samantha_ looks confused at Himiko

David goes to sam #2 and gives here the flask

<David> then buggers off

<Rev_Jones> Sam: Are you done?

<_Lady_Samantha_> i don't undersatnd you...

Lady_Samantha asks what you think on Rhiannon?

<_Lady_Samantha_> i saw you for the first time when you and the others attacked maxwell and me

<Himiko> hmm..

<Himiko> ah well..

<Himiko> It's pretty weird though...

Lady_Samantha asks what you think on Rhiannon? I'm drawn to her, but also to Maxie

<_Lady_Samantha_> Will you let me see Maxwell after this is done?

<Himiko> Well that's where we are dropping you off..

_Lady_Samantha_ arcs her eyebrow and seems to cher up a bitz

<Himiko> Untill we decide which of you two is the real one.

<Rev_Jones> Well, I cannot give you advice on which is better.

<Rev_Jones> Normally I would tell you to follow your heart, but Rhiannon makes it more complicated.

Clunk has been passed out for hours and wakes up with a huge hangover and a rumbling stomach.

<Clunk> (ehrm, this is Whitefield)

Lady_Samantha has had some intense times with Rhi, as you probably know

<Rev_Jones> It was hard to miss.

<Rev_Jones> But ask yourself if you can truly be made complete by an automaton.

<Rev_Jones> And is Rhiannon truly but an automaton, or did God see fit to give her a soul too? I wish I knew the answer to that question.

Lady_Samantha wonders -- she is so real (my angel)

Lord_Maxwell gets up and looks around slowly remembering where he is..

<Rhiannon_D> (...)

<Lady_Samantha> and then there is Maxie... we;ve been marriied what 40 years?

Lord_Maxwell decides to listen to his stomach and starts wandering around looking for food.

<Rev_Jones> Yes.

<Himiko> okay.. all samples are taken..

_Lady_Samantha_ looks quite embarrased but has helped...

<Rev_Jones> True christian doctrine tells us that you ought to stick to the man you married.

<_Lady_Samantha_> When will i be able to see Max?

<Himiko> David. I'm going to drop you off soon, then I'm dropping off the rest of you except for those who are going to Iceland..

<Rev_Jones> But it also tells us women should be slaves.

<Lady_Samantha> since MAxie is also drawn to Rhi, I was think perhaps a 3some might work for us

<David> yes sure

<Rev_Jones> Only in your own heart can you find the truth.

Himiko heads back to the bridge and sets a course for London.

Rev_Jones looks up.

<David> (got to kill'em all

<Lady_Samantha> we do each have our own Mansion and can entertain long term guests easily

<Rev_Jones> Well, perhaps you ought to discuss it with your husband.

<Lady_Samantha> perhaps so

<Storytortillo> 01:43 Says Mr. Clock

<Lady_Samantha> thank you for your wise counsel

<Rev_Jones> I think in reality the only word of true advice I can give you is not to be misled by the firey heat of a quick romance. Love is not found in the bed, but in trust and honour that is only found through time.

Lord_Maxwell finds the kitchen eventually and starts whipping up a lot of fod.

Lady_Samantha looks into the drs bag for a few pills (mainly EP pills and "greenies"

<Lord_Maxwell> (food)

Himiko goes over the intercom

<Rev_Jones> (er... what are those?)

<Lady_Samantha> (pills, she needs to keep up her strength)

<Himiko> Ladies and Gentleman, we are approaching our destination of Kensington Park Airfield shortly, if you would all finish what you are doing and prepare to leave the ship, we can depart soon again.

<Lady_Samantha> (the EP pills provide strength and "greenies" food and water)

David gets all the samples

<Himiko> (for those of you, there is no Kensington Park Airfield, and only David needs to leave here)

<Himiko> (that was over the intercom)

David heads for the exit

Nathan_Raiser sends out another transmission

<Nathan_Raiser> I'm coming in

<Himiko> Ah David..

Lady_Samantha takes a small vial from the bag and puts most of her pills in it

<Himiko> (ehrm,... argl..)

<Himiko> (scratch that last comment)

Himiko picks up the radio

<Rev_Jones> You had better give me the bag, then we shall go and join the others.

<Himiko> (radio) Hello Nathan, good to see you again. There's space for you to land on the top of the blimp... just make sure to secure Skywarp so it doesn't fall off.

<Lady_Samantha> put the vial in her pocket and returns the bag

<Nathan_Raiser> Hey there, beautifull...

<Nathan_Raiser> I think we can handle it...

<Rev_Jones> Sorry Sam. The rules are the rules - you cannot take stuff out of the bag.

Nathan_Raiser swoops silently before the control room and makes a sharp turn upwards

<Lady_Samantha> sigh

<Lady_Samantha> me put the vial in the bag

<Rev_Jones> Thank you. Let's get you up to the flight deck then.

<Lady_Samantha> ok

Lady_Samantha would like to know whgat ius being done with my equipment?

Nathan_Raiser lands on the top and activates the small clasping arms that are used to land the thing verticaly and latces onto supports... then he pats the contro lboard and exits the topcarefulyl heading for the top opening on the blimp, keeping low so he doesn't roll off

<Rev_Jones> I don't know. I would think we will leave it alone, since it belongs to one of you or the other.

_Lady_Samantha_ climbs down the ladders and heads down to the lower part of th ship

<_Lady_Samantha_> (no she doesn't!)

Nathan_Raiser climbs down the ladders and heads down to the lower part of th ship

_Lady_Samantha_ heads to the forward part of the ship jsut nodding to anyone familiar he notices

Nathan_Raiser shoots _Lady_Samantha_ for stealing his lines

Nathan_Raiser heads to the forward part of the ship jsut nodding to anyone familiar he notices

<Rhiannon_D> (^_^)

<Lady_Samantha> are we all together then?

<Himiko> (intercom) Ladies and Gentlemen, we are currently on a course to the Whitefield Estates, we should arrive there shortly.

Himiko is going full speed for a change.

<Rev_Jones> (Well, we are all together except for one of the Sam's who has been shot by the ST)

Nathan_Raiser pops in at the bridge and leans back while Himiko is standing over the comms, he has his wrist computer on, but is wearing a red pullover and blue jeans, his hair seems clean and blond and his beard seems chopped quite well

<Lady_Samantha> (well know that resolves the issue ;))

Himiko is quite busy pulling levers and steering the ship, paying a lot of attention to the radar avoiding most commercial airliners..

Rhiannon_D enters the corridor heading towards the Sleeping quarters, and constantly checking her signal.

Lady_Samantha asks which estate?

Lady_Samantha wonders about the few she don't avoid ;)

Nathan_Raiser coughs a bit to get some attention

<Himiko> (fortunately you are locked up)

Bill_Irvine follows Rhi, checking the surroundings and keeping his eyes open

Himiko looks over her shoulder happy to see Nathan..

<Lady_Samantha> (Rev took me out and headed somewhere with me)

<Himiko> If I weren't flying manual at the moment I would hug you right now... but since this is pretty busy airspace, I need to fly this thing myself....

Himiko smiles at Nathan.

Rhiannon_D notices she's getting closer to the quarters with every step.

Nathan_Raiser comes up behind her and hugs her

<Nathan_Raiser> Listen we'll need to talk about some things

<Nathan_Raiser> but what's this about clones of the doctor?

Himiko enjoys the hug as best as it goes with her hands on the steering wheel.

Bill_Irvine still follows Rhi, pretty much on the edge, ready to draw

Rhiannon_D finally stops in front of one of the doors...

<Himiko> Well currently we have two versions of the doctor on board..

<Rhiannon_D> Hm, I think we're here.

<Himiko> I must say, I like the one we found here in London a bit more..

<Nathan_Raiser> doesn't talk about eating brains so fondly?

<Rhiannon_D> Bill, just wait for me to get a more precise reading.

<Rhiannon_D> We'd better be safe than sorry.

<Himiko> She's just... nicer..

<Nathan_Raiser> What about the Angel - God - Vampire thingy? Was she behaving?

<Himiko> Yeah, she was behaving..

<Nathan_Raiser> i looked up in some books... no clues of somethign like her...

<Himiko> At least.. in the period that I knew of her wereabouts..

<Himiko> We lost her for a short while..

<Nathan_Raiser> Oh?

<Himiko> In short... Lord Whitefield, the doc's husband, went all Amazing Hulk on us to protect his wife... not the one we were tagging along... the one that never was in the jungle..

<Nathan_Raiser> ah... i jsut thought it was some drunk on that couch and was about to ask you about that...

Nathan_Raiser grins

<Himiko> anyways, we got them both back, caused a bit too much ruckus and are now going to figure out which one of them is real.

<Nathan_Raiser> can i help?

Lord_Maxwell has gone to the kitchen already.

<Himiko> hmm

<Nathan_Raiser> never dealt with clones... i only ever worked with lookalikes and disguied people

<Nathan_Raiser> i was more worried about you...

<Himiko> well we've dropped David in London so he can do a full genetic scan of the ladies, we've given him all the necessary samples.

<Nathan_Raiser> That's that nosy reporter?

<Himiko> We are now dropping of everybody that wants at the Whitefield Estate, and then I'm dropping the Islandic broad of in Iceland so she can fix the lump of scrap metal in the hangar.

<Himiko> Yeah..

<Storytortillo> Yes, David is off the ship with the samples

<Nathan_Raiser> ... on ICELAND?

<Nathan_Raiser> Isn't that a bit... far?

<Himiko> yes..

<Himiko> well it should be about an hour and a half of flying to get there..

Lady_Samantha asks again which Whitefield estate?

Nathan_Raiser moves his head to her other shoulder

<Nathan_Raiser> Who will keep an eye on our two "guests"?

<Nathan_Raiser> i noticed Bill is still here...

<Himiko> Well I'll trust Mr. Irvine to do that...

<Lady_Samantha> (/me says Rhi can keep an eye or any other part on me ;))

<Nathan_Raiser> Hmmm...

<Nathan_Raiser> CWe should leave enough people there... we don't know which is which and that lord seems to think the one you picked up is the right one...

Lady_Samantha does not object to being watched over by Bill

<Himiko> we'll there's a good chance that they are both fakes..

<Nathan_Raiser> Oh?

<Himiko> well they seem to have the same memories, their personalities and speech patterns are similar enough... but one has met with us, the other has never left..

<Himiko> so....

<Himiko> how can we tell who the fake is...

<Storytortillo> I think Bill can take good care of them while the others do the investigations...

<Nathan_Raiser> I think Bill can take good care of them while the others do the investigations...

<Himiko> the doctor also admitted to having fucked with her aging process, so we can't use that to determine the real one either..

<Nathan_Raiser> and if we don't find any conclusive evidence i say we dump them both

<Nathan_Raiser> as in?

<Storytortillo> The Reverend has also been dropped off anf left to his experiments

<Storytortillo> (yes i know it's around)

Himiko nods

<Bill_Irvine> (.oO(Hmmm.. Nice anyone asks Bill if he volunteers *ggg))

<Nathan_Raiser> Okay... when we drop them off maybe we can have a bit of time for ourselves while you drive...

Storytortillo moves the camera from there...

<Storytortillo> We turn back to Rhi and Bill

<Storytortillo> YOu've gotten to that room...

Lady_Samantha asks are we (Sam1 and Sam2 (shades of the Cat in the Hat)) staying abord?)

<Storytortillo> you are pretty sure this one is where the signal was... you cannot be sure exactly where but it was somehwere in it...

<Storytortillo> It's one of the larger cabins and it looks sleeped in...

<Rhiannon_D> (I have Eidetic mem, have I been in it? I've been in Sam's and Anna's cabins.)

<Rev_Jones> (er... Sam, it seems that if I did take you out of your room, I then put you back in it again. Call it a pleasant stroll around the deck)

<Lady_Samantha> (oh - I didn;t know you brought me back

<Bill_Irvine> any idea whose room it was?

<Storytortillo> (yes of course, Rev and Sam)

<Storytortillo> This is clearlythe room

<Rev_Jones> (Sam - nor did I, but the ST skipped a bit of time.)

<Rhiannon_D> The room? well, since the signal is 100% coming from here..

Rhiannon_D sighs.

<Rhiannon_D> Yeah, I know whose it is.

<Bill_Irvine> Whose is it?

Rhiannon_D just drops on the bed, and pulls a pillow over her head.

Rhiannon_D whispers.

<Rhiannon_D> Damn it Samantha.

<Storytortillo> ---Session End---
