Just as a heads-up, I'm planning on having Lauril leave "for good" sometime Wednesday evening. IRL I leave town on Saturday, and I want to leave a few days just for focusing on packing and making sure I'm ready. (Of course, now just watch me have everything miraculously ready by Wednesday and be twi...

Seeing people getting into seats and ready to leave, Lauril closes her door and pulls out her keys. As she starts the car, she turns to respond to Skydancer's introduction. "Oh, I'm Lauril. It's good to meet you, Mr. Skydancer. ...At least... it's good to meet you again...." She trails off, then lau...

Lauril watches and listens as Skydancer points out where things are located on the map. As soon as he finishes, she shuffles a bit through her purse until she finds a pencil, with which she circles the intersection he pointed out. For a moment her pencil hovers uncertainly over the exiting driveway ...

(Should she express concerns about returning to her car, McClaw will half-jokingly suggest, "Well, if it comes to it, I can always carry you back.") Hehehe. That's hilarious! :lol: Of course, she would be obliged by her contract with the Perpetually Shy And Awkward Chipmunk Association to keel over...

Lauril hears footsteps heading to her side of the car and looks toward the sound to see Kerry walking over. "D'you need a navigator, ma'am?" he asks. "Oh, hello again! You came over from the crash site, too? I didn't see you in the restaraunt. "But anyway - a navigator? Well-" she begins to answer -...

As Ferguson walks toward the door, Lauril calls to him, "Oh - ummm... just a minute." She casts a slightly distressed glance from where Ferguson is nearing the door to those of the group still left. "If any of you needed a ride, ummm... come meet us outside. I've got to go pay for my food." She dart...

Sorry to The JAM - I think you were the only one who hadn't posted yet. I wanted to go ahead and post Lauril's offer of a ride, both to keep it in sequence and because I'm unlikely to have a chance to get it up there for most of the day tomorrow. If it's a problem, though, just ignore it and let me ...

As what Fergie says registers, Lauril looks up, confused. "You're walking? Why- oh. You... wouldn't have a ride, would you? Well, ummm... I'm not actually going to be able to stick around, myself. But I do have a car, and I'd be happy to give you a ride there. In fact, anyone who needs a ride would ...

Okay, I go to read a definition - a DEFINITION - and... and... Can I change "yataa" to just "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa(h)!" ? D: :ick: :cry: I think I may be scarred for life... (I even tried to adjust so the stupid picture would be offscreen and I could read... but the words were what adjust...

In the course of a few minutes, Lauril shifts from absently sketching while listening to seriously sketching and only half-hearing the conversation. As she begins thinking more about what she's drawing, the image of a house she had noticed on the way into town pops into her mind. At the memory of it...

My suggestion: skim or skip over the description of the chart (there's a reason things are done as charts rather than written descriptions, anyway) and read the conclusion. :D But if you do manage to make it through that paragraph, I have to give credit to my dad for the bit about little things maki...

As the discussion continues, Lauril shifts her debate with herself further to the back of her mind and begins listening in on what's being said about the various alien populations and the what had been done about them, or would be done about them, or could be done about them. I could wave and say hi...

S'aaruuk (when you get the opportunity)- Can the house be seen (any more than the roof) from the main roads going into or out of town (such as the one the folks would have driven in on from the crash)? As I said....think "Munsters" or "The Addams Family" in the architecture. I looked up both these a...

Okay, Lauril's song (it will probably work best if I get to bring her back in, but in any case...): "You Move Me" by Pierce Pettis and Gordon Kennedy. I think the version I'm familiar with is the one that Susan Ashton sings, though apparently Garth Brooks also sings a version. (Goodness, the things ...

S'aaruuk - the mansion is on a hilltop. Would it be visible from either the diner parking lot or maybe even the diner window? If so, I'm thinking I'm gonna have her look out the window and notice it. Aliens and time travelers and Mary Poppins bookbags would fail to pique Lauril's curiousity... but c...

Lauril glances up at the backpack Mac introduces into the conversation. Didn't want to be the only one without something weird? I'm more than happy to have nothing weirder to report than getting lost following WebRoute directions. Actually, it probably would've been weirder if I hadn't gotten lost.....

"I didn't want to be the only one without something wierd."

But you couldn't have been in any case - Lauril's working really hard for that position!

"I am having trouble adjusting. This time and place is alot more peaceful than what I used to know." Lauril slips silently back into her spot in the corner of the booth seat, thinking, I'm having trouble adjusting, too, but not to peacefulness! She rummages through her purse to find the last of her...

From the corner of the booth seat, Lauril's mind is going about a mile a minute... and still failing miserably at keeping up with the conversation she's hearing aroud her. The discussions of damage to the table and research and time travel all register in her mind, but they quickly form a tangle tha...

I'll go with whatever everyone else decides. I also think it's probably only fair to bring up again the fact that I'm only going to be around for... wow - it's only the next two weeks, now. I joined in because I've been wanting to join some RP for a while now, but I'm going out of town on the 17th (...
