Welcome to Gaia! ::

*Enter Cora from Main Room 144

:::Cora poked her head in, she saw that Malazar was rumaging through a closet... so she took her time when chekcing out the surroundings:::

What strange things you keep Malazar :::She said marveling at it all. She spied the laptop and let out a smirk:::

Oh, the museums are full of these! :::she was very tempted to begin typing into to to see how archaic its programming was, but she held back, recalling how Malazar reacted the last time she touched something of his...she was starting to understand possession:::

:::Cora sits at the desk with the laptop on it, and studies it a moment. She had never actually touched one of the museum exibits before. She moves it around, and finally sees a button. She presses it, and machine whirs to life:::

:::Cora smiles and sets it down. The first thing she sees on the screen is a graph of letters from ancient english. She frowns, only able to recognize the ones in her name. But something catches her ears...among the quiet hum of the machine's mechanical parts is a very distinct vibration, the pitch of which Cora recognizes as a pressure sensor. Immidiately she places a finger to the screen:::

:::The machine responds:::

*Analizing...compiling user data. Omnilitteration detected. Please wait one moment*

:::In seconds, Cora finds that the computer keyboard changes to the glyphs of her language. She gasps:::

Malazar! This machine! It knows kryptonic! My written language!!

:::But before he can respond Cora is feverishly tapping the screen with her fingers. Before too many moments pass, the computer announces:

*Access Level One. What is your request*

:::Cora types just a few letter:::

*The human body: The human body is an open system formed by many subsystems working dependantly on....*

:::She listens to the computer audiating infomration on the human body...it is all quite familiar to Cora. She shakes her head and puts her finger to the center fo the screen...without a word of without anymore typed data the computer responds to her wishes:::

*Societal norms and expectancies of the human body, year 2001.... :::the computer goes on for a little while::: It is necessary that the human body be covered, mainly to keep the genital and mammarian areas concealed. These human anatomical structures were considered inappropriate to expose to general publics*

:::Cora turned to Malazar and grimaced::: You could have just told me that...

:::She presses the screen once more and the vocalization fades out. Once more her fingers fly acorss the screen, as though simply rehearsing a very practiced dance:::

*Access not granted*

Hm... :::She pauses...and realizes that the sensors are not limited to the screen, she begins to touch the rest of the computer, and after a few moments the computer announced again:

Acess Level Two. :::Suddenly the light projections hop from the screen and near to Cora's body...she adjusts her chair to make it more comfortable a reach::: What is your request.

:::Cora starts moving her hands over the light, small three-dimensional circular objects follow her trail, and lock themselves in certain positions. When she is satisfied with the combination, she puts her hands down, and blinks. Suddenly light fills her eyes, and it appears that she is recieving information through light patterns directly to her ocipital lobe:::

:::a moment later it is done...and she looks disapointed. She takes up her hands to the air again, light projections moving once again. This time a cube pops up, and she stairs at it a moment. She begins to touch certain sectors of it, then back to the spheres nearer to her:::

:::She glances over, and see's Malazar's backside, his torso engulfed in the closet. She bites her lip and then decides to change the patterns on the projection. As she does, the cube flashes red, and a wall comes over it:::

*Access Level Three denied*

Hm...level three...

:::with a couple delecate touches the wall comes down and Cora tries again, only to recieve the same response. She tries a couple more times, but with no luck:::

Hm...with a couple hours....

(( LOL, you say that as though Cora knows why/how/what it means to "check someone out" is))

:::Cora gasped when she realized that Malazar was right there...she did not even hear him approaching... she chalked it up to distraction:::

Forgive me Malazar...I did not mean to intrude. I was just looking for answers.

:::After standing up and facing him, she takes the clothes he holds out to her, and she is too busy studying them to notice the gesture he made in the direction of the bathroom:::

ooOOOooh...Thank you.

:::She then proceded to remove the jacket, and the bedsheet in a quick swoop, and proceded to investigate the mechanics of the pants... it doesn't take her too long (thankfully for Malazar's nerves), and she climbs in them. Then procedes to pull the sleeves over her arms. She buttons the shirt as best as she can, then wonders for a moment what to do with the cloak. She studies the hood, and realizes that it's anatomical structure would allow it to fit snuggly over her shoulders:::

Yes, I think I am done. How do I look?

:::She smirks to herself::: I feel a bit strange. It is not like my uniform at all. I feel as those these are going to droop and fall right off of me.

:::Cora looks at herself, and then back at Malazar disappointed...he is still embarassed...but i am fully clothed now! I don't understand. She is a bit dejected, but tired more so.:::

Thank you for your help, Malazar. I am appologize once more.:::she felt a kiss on the forehead might was not appropriate while he was so embarassed still:::

Goodnight. :::She walks out, shutting the door behind her, then makes her way to her own room:::

*Enter Cross*

*Cross phases into his cabin and stares at the red sky.... then shakes his head* well if there's one thing I could use afer a narrow escape... its a drink...... *he takes to his feet and picks up his key off the ground... frowning at the name: "J. Brown"*.... right *he opens his door then locks it behind hi, heading down the hall and into the main room.

*Exit Cross to Main Room*
