"Over here." Mandy-Sue went to a section where blues, greens and in-betweens were stored. "Go ahead and check out the swatches."
Darcy wondered who was going to look after the babies, until she saw Phoenix and Ricardo around. She followed Ebony and Mater to the animal pens.
Liska set the Malinois to sniff around outside where the "smoking zone" had been established. Enkidu's nose went to the ground, smelling for a particular scent. He eventually stopped at a cigarette butt that had been tossed carelessly on the ground. Liska tsk'd at the sloppiness of the smoker, it was by such little things that suspects gave themselves away.
"All right." Julian crossed his arms. "I wonder when they're going to talk to me again?"
Doc lay by Raine's bed as the girl went back to sleep again. Lightning came by and checked on them both, before making his daily call to Sally.
Brett, having nothing in particular to do this morning, sauntered over with Robin to improve their acquaintance of Amelie. They smiled to her as they approached.

Delfina carefully studied the various color swatches of the blues and greens that she had been shown. She could see several shades that she liked a lot. "There's so many colors," she commented, "Let's see... I like the Jade and Teal and the Azure and Cerulean. I also like that Amethyst too." (((((OOC: Here's where I picked out the colors: List of colors ))))) ~~~~~ Ebony made her way to the animal pens where Sweetie was. Certainly, the little goat knew that she was coming. "Sweetie," she said as she pulled up next to the fence, "I'm here." (((((OOC: Can't remember what I did with Shadow... XD)))))

Adam had just wrapped up what he was doing, which was most of it going through the code and fixing bugs. He had let it run too soon, and he had run into more than one problem with the program. He laid back in the chair, relaxing for a bit before getting some food.
"I don't know." Michael shrugged. "I know I'm getting talked to tomorrow. I suggest that you mention your mare to the folks, that way they can do something about it." Michael looked at the solid wall between them. "Or are you thinking about doing this Hellriding thing to get away?"

<< She's with Dawn's family right now.>>>
Sweetie weaved her way around the larger Saanens to reach Ebony, nuzzling at the proffered antenna.
"She's cute." Darcy remarked.
"See, there's some other babies already." Mater pointed to some very tiny kids that were already jumping around.
"Take your time." Mandy-Sue smiled.
"I'm not in much shape to do that right now." Julian sighed. "My half-blood breeding has its liabilities. It takes enormous concentration, and a lot of physical energy. It's usually a week before I can get going again."

"If you found your mare and got her with the stallion, would you run away, escaping this imprisonment?"
"If there isn't anything you require of me, I will be going." Cole said, looking down the slope. "I got some things to check, and I can't do it from here, even though I wish I could."

(((((OOC: Yeah, okay... that happens when I'm tired...)))))
Delfina could also see some lavender and and dark reds and browns, like Burnt Sienna and Burnt Umber. She also liked the Carmine and Cinnibar as well. There was also Slate Gray and Steel Blue.
"There's too many that I like that I can choose right now," said Delfina, "Usually I switch to different colors whenever I feel like it. Right now, I feel like wearing those shades of greens and blues that I picked out."
~~~~~
Ebony smiled at Sweetie, letting the little goat nuzzle her antenna.
"She was the first one to jump up on my hood," Ebony explained, "And then she claimed my roof to sleep on. She's such a friendly little thing."

"They tell me the mama goats don't jump around so much once they have their kids." Mater said. One of the baby goats from another nanny came up and nuzzled at Darcy's antenna curiously. The 'Bird girl looked as if she were pondering something.
"We'll start with that, then." the seamstress went over to a set of drawers where all her pattern and style books were located. "Something simple to begin with, and we'll learn what works." Maeve and Ruth-Ann also went to pore over the designs.
"Wow, lots of period costumes here." Ruth-Ann remarked. "The re-enactors would have loved it."
"We won't keep you, then." Tess answered. "But thank you very much for your help, and do keep in touch."
"That was my plan." Julian admitted. "But I don't really know, now." He continued straining to get a better look down the hall, at the end of which the shadows of people passed by. In a corner of his mind, he wondered if he'd see the blonde again.

"That's because they have a responsibility now to take care of their kids," replied Ebony, "I know that for a fact with my own two."
She grins as she watches the baby goat come up and nuzzle Darcy's antenna. "That one likes you."
~~~~~
Delfina came over and looked over the design books. She didn't know what kind of outfit that she would want, but maybe she'll find something that she'll like sooner or later.

"I will." Cole said. "There are a lot of things to be done before introduction, and some of it will require your opinion." He looked at Kathleen. "I will be sending both of you both email once the supplies are at the airport." Cole backed to a turn. "I will see you later." He waved his antenna slightly, then headed down on the trail.
"So you don't want to return to Only Real World?" Michael asked in a manner that he was not expecting an answer. "You better be ready for the consequences if you intend to stay."

"I'd suggest a simple tank and pants for now," Mandy-Sue said, "With stretch waist and a bit of room to expand."
Darcy looked down at the little brown kid. "Hello."
Tess waved as Cole left.
"Most of "the family" backstab each other on a regular basis, sometimes literally. They INVENTED double-talk and intrigue." Julian sniffed. "Wherever I go, it won't be back there."

"And it has to be a comfortable fit too," said Delfina, "Something loose-fitting and light that I could easily move around in."
~~~~~
Ebony looked around the stables, feeling bothered and restless...

Darcy noted Ebony's unsettled state. "Something wrong?"
"Definitely." Mandy-Sue fished a couple of patterns out from her meticulously filed archives. "How about these?"

"I just... need to be doing something that'll keep me busy," replied Ebony, "I don't like to be cooped up in that alcove just because I'm a little sick."
~~~~~
Delfina looked at the pattern that she being shown. It was a loose-fitting tunic-top and a pair of capris with a sashlike belt.
"I like that one," she pointed the pattern out.

Ricardo sighed as he watched Ebony leave with Darcy and Mater. His sharp tuner hearing had picked up words like "goat", "babies", and "Sweetie" and knew that Ebony went to see her little goat friend at the stables. He also knew that Ebony was feeling restless and just needed to move around, despite being a little sick.
"She pushes herself too much even when she's sick," he said, "and that worries me."
