Welcome to Gaia! ::

'that is true but does she knows what Na'vi culture to follow?' officer two said looking at him.

'yes but is Hiroshi ready to let her go and live with her own kind?' Officer said looking at him.

The Officers nodded and headed out. Yumiko doing well in her training and sees Hiroshi comming to her and she smiled at her father and goes to him. Having her quque and long black hair in a strange bun.

' good father' Yumiko said looking at Hiroshi with a smile.

Yumiko following Hiroshi looking curious wondering what is the matter.

'yes father I still have it and even with thing strange necklace' Yumiko said as she takes out a Maraca Aerii that hangs around her neck.

( what a Maraca Aerii is

Common Name: Panopyra
Na'vi Name: Tawtsngal, or "sky cap"
Taxonomy: Panopyra aerii, named for resemblance to musical instrument and for growth habit "in the air"
Height: 15 centimeters at cup
Spread: Up to 46 centimeters at cup
Note: nicknamed "love flower" by Terran scientists


The panopyra is an unusual life-form that has characteristics reminiscent of a jellyfish. It doesn't resemble any taxonomic plant group found on Earth and appears to represent a new line of evolution toward a primitive nervous system. Sensory tissue and a saprophytic lifestyle, where nutrition is obtained from decayed organic matter and dead organisms, place this species somwhere between plants, animals, and fungi. It is an epiphyte and typically grows attached to other plants, sometimes high in the canopy.

Normal plant gravitropic responces are missing in the panopyra. Instead of growing toward or against gravity, the vinelike stems sense and grow toward prey, which in turn are attracted by slight electric signals emanating from the plant stems. Once an animal approaches the panopyra it is further lured by the nutrient-rich water trapped in the cuplike plant body. This double attractant system results in abundant food for the panopyra, which has no need to make its own by photosynthesis.

The Na'vi collect the liquid that catches in the body and use it for a nutritious and healing drink. The flexible stems are used for making nets, traps, and other woven items. The growing tips of the stems with their sensory cells are said to be an attractant and aphrodisiac and are often worn by young Na'vi who are looking for a mate.

*Note: perhaps this is what comprised the necklace which Neytiri was wearing that night when she brought Jake to the Tree of Voices.... )

'alright, what will my role be father?' Yumiko said looking at him.
