   So many possibilities, but in the end, only one true answer.

   Honestly, my money’s on them popping up in the midst of the Sun Tribe village. After all, if the book’s going to send them where and when they NEED to be, sending them to fulfill that prophecy about reuniting Zonn and his folks with the rest of Erogenia would be pretty damn handy right about now.

   They sure are making a lot of fuss about half a year.

   It is an interesting thought though, that one of them is now half a year older than the other.

   WMJBF is always a possibility. We just don’t usually list it because, what can you do?

   Or maybe they just lost 7 months in the space between dimensions. Losing time due to travel seems like the most obvoius possibility

   Blond backs away; I slide into his place. I totally dig that extra-dimensional exposition she’s dishing out. All-Right!!

    I just realized, the lighting in this dance hall is pretty harsh; it’s aging all their faces. (A subtle, but realistic effect, lol.)

    Aw, Zona, don’t go ruin Tula’s fun. Just sit back and relax and enjoy that you are back together with Mentl.

    Hmm, wonder how much of that Skip heard? Usually it’s pretty hard to hear anything when there’s music unless you are standing very close, and since he’s given them space I’d guess he couldn’t hear what they were talking about at all.

    Blessings All! It has been a while. I am WAY behind on the Zona adventures. I have missed you all.

    And now, what goes through Skip’s mind? the home game!

    Okay, where is the camera crew hiding?
    Damn Larpers can’t keep their game in the forrest?

    Any other ideas?

    I’m going to go with what I call the “Avalon hypothesis” (from “Gargoyles”: “Avalon doesn’t send you where you want to go, it sends you where you need to be.” And yeah, I’m really rooting for Zona and Tula tofind Zonn.

    And as the surely weirded out blond guy listening to THAT convo - “Meh, I´d still hit it.”

    Am I the only one who’s noticed that there’s nothing in the margins?

    Way to go, Jed.
    You practically let us fill Tula’s lines with our speculation

    Oh man, am I ever glad she cleared that up! Whew. I was on the verge of a panic attack…

    And yeah, by now Skip has to be thinking, WTF???

    Of course, the way Tula phrased it, it kind of points to the “coordinates are vital” one, because of the little interlude with the daughter of Zona and Mentl.

    And, indeed, Skip is no doubt wondering what he has stumbled upon.

    No offense, Jed, but you really need to do something about these ‘light in mouth’ things, just as you did with the’ light in nose’ problem a while back. I can’t unsee it now that I’ve seen it.

    “Intention Must Be Paid!” to paraphrase Arthur Miller.

    Beauty, JED. I agree with no interstitial, what could you possibly add to that?

    October 28th, 2012 at 8:14 pm

    Lora, he IS doing something about it, and has been for some time. There’s only so much he can do, though.

    Way to cover all the bases, JED!

    Girls, Best Plan: Spend a few days (at least) exploring this world. You are going to find at least some knowledge and a few small items that, most assuredly, will come in very handy upon your return. Trust Mentl to be of excellent assistance in that department.

    So, I’m thinking that if I were in Skip’s boots overhearing this, my thoughts would be in roughly this order:

    Oh sweet. They have a line on some of the really good drugs!

    Hmmm. They’re pretty serious about this .. almost as if ..?

    This! This is why I always, totally dig the crazy redheads!

    “Umm? Tula? I’d really love to fill out your dance ticket for the evening. Could I buy you a drink? If you’re not from around here, it would be my honor and pleasure to show you and your friends around some.”

    I know, Jean. But with the low lighting setting of the scene it’s more visible than usual.

    Sounds like what they need is something that can identify its location and destination in time and relative dimension in space…

    Chibi-Mitzi mentioned it too, the margins seem very bare. If there is a time relativity issue that means the girls can get in a few shopping days before returning home.

    True, Lora, true…

    …Here’s hoping everyone east of the Mississippi longitude zone is okay, both in the States and up in Canada!

    I heard from family in the DC area. All they had was a little rain and wind ‘typical of back home’. So, no big.
