((*snorts* yes ma'am! XDXD))
Shy looked up from his computer, frowning. Pressing the intercom on his desk (he LOVED buttons) he asked. "Nora, do we have any more people we need to say?"
"This is BETH." the voice said snappily. "And stop using the royal WE."
Shy frowned. Where had they picked up this girl from? "Beth?" he asked again.
"Yes, you do." a long suffering sigh accompanied the words. "A woman named Vickster. She'll be coming along soon, I expect. As soon as she drops by reception, I'll take her up personally. Okay?"
Shy brightened. Vickster! The woman with the jade jar... he was curious to meet her, and also curious to see what would happen to the jar... jade. It was such a valuable thing after all.
"Tell me when she's here, okay?" he asked.
"I know how to do my job, Shy." came the snappy answer.
Shy frowned. Sheesh. Maybe he should increase the sugar content in their snacks...

I walk up to the building, which I had read about in one of the papers I snagged last time I went to see one of the lab people. It seemed like they were busy alot but I really didnt know what to do with my jar. It wasnt even a very small jar. I looked into it and its green fog alot content.
Hmm.. I wonder what it is...
I said as to myself... I walked up to the door. There were a bell and a mailbox but usually such things are used when its not open, I think, anyhow I was expected, right..? I never really been to this type of place before but it is most likely like many others. I opened the door and walked in and ahead. I found to my relieve an reception. I probably can get guided right from there. I smiled friendly to the woman behind it, tho my eyes showed a bit of worrying and nervousity. I never really liked lab people.
Ehmm... hello? I am here about an appointment.. My name is Vicky.. ehmm.. Vickster...
I put the jar up on the desk between us. I figured that probably showed better as to why I was here in the first place.

Beth perked up. "Oh, hello." her gaze was intent, curious as she gave the woman a once over. Hmmm... "Come with me, please." she said. She got up, placed a 'Closed' sign in front of her desk and smiled. "Follow me."
This kind, friendly person was so different from the one who had spoken to Shy.
Beth took Vickster down a little corrider, into an elevator and up to the third floor, down another hallway and towards a door. Knocking twice, she walked in.
The room was plush, antique, Persian carpets littering the floor and a small gold and china table piled with sweet food in the middle. A large, handsome desk stood at the end, and from it a man got up.
"Beth." he said, frowning.
"I warned you with a knock, didn't I?" she snapped. "Now, this is Vickster. Vickster?" her smile warmed as she turned to the woman. "I'll be outside if anything bad happens."

I blink at the woman a bit confused. Bad happens? Now, what does that mean? Vicky had already been fingering the jar nervously as they had gone further into the building. She never liked labs and lab people, the ones she met in the past had been so cold and distant.. and a tad crazy. I force up a smile to the lady.
Thank you, Beth, I will keep that in mind.. But I am sure it will go fine..
I say as I turn my head to the man. I look him slowly up to down and then back up. He didnt seem too bad, if it wasnt for the white coat and smart look. I clear my throat and walk closer. Reaching him my hand, cursing me cause I am being so slow.
Hi, I am Vickster. Im here for the appointment. Its.. interesting to meet you.
I glanced back a little to Beth. Were those two lovers or something? Why they seemed so hostile to one another? Which one of them is the hard one to deal with... I try to think of something else, so I hold up the jar a little with my other hand, which wasnt reached for a handshake.

Shy blinked at the jar, staring. What a pretty color. "Please, come in." he murmured. "Have a seat, and something to eat." he turned, his gaze still transfixed. "Beth, we'll see you later." he said firmly. "I apologize for my receptionist... she's a tad hostile."
Beth stuck her tongue out.
"Now, Vickster is it?" he smiled warmly, leading her to the small dip in the room with the gold edged seats. It was a tad unprofessional, but Shy didn't mind. He liked food-- and he thought it made sense to offer it to guests as well. "You must have some questions. My name is Shy, and I promise to take good care of you."

I tilted my head and watched Shy wondering as he looked at my jar with such interest. He must be used to these type of jars, right? what was so strange?
Oh not at all, she has been very friendly, really..!
I try to convince him she had been nothing but nice. I let him lead me and I smiled shyly as we walked.. I nodded.
Oh yes, Im Vickster, but you could call me Vicky or just Vick, most do.
I looked around the room and was a bit surprised of its apperance... doesnt look like a typical office. I waited with sitting down till he done so. Didnt want to accidently take the wrong seat or something. My fingers clung to the jar.
I do have alot to ask and yet I am not sure what to ask... some men came with this jar to me on request of my friend Pi-Sama, I take it that you know of her?

Shy blinked. So was Beth only mean to him? Oh dear. What had he done to anger the woman so? Hmmm... it couldn't have been that comment about her hips? Because she had big hips.
"Vick it is, then." he said. Taking a seat, he nodded. "Pi-sama is the guardian to one of our fae... that is what you hold in your hands." he said, nodding to the glass jar. "The fae, an old, powerful race that died down over time to become nothing more than pixies. Tiny spirit creatures that we can't see with our naked eyes. What you hold in your jar is one of the essences of the fae, mingling with the gift and working in such a way that soon..." he smiled. "You will have a child of your own."
He leaned. "Please, help yourself to something to eat." he was still eyeing the jar. "Sometimes it is easy to guess the type of fae that will emerge from the jar, other times difficult. I wish I knew what your contained." he said, shrugging.

I looked down at the jar on my lap. I wished I was more surprised by what he was saying, but seeing how many pets and kids I seen emerges from both this and that, it wasnt such a huge thing. But I couldnt help but wonder why they did die out... I just have to ask..
If I may ask, how come the gaes died out before? I mean.. what happened to them..?
My fingers softly caressed the glass... I then shoke my head and lifted it up towards Shy. Thinking he seemed so interested in it, he maybe need a closer look.
Here. if you want to look it over while I grab something to try out from your eatables...
I looked weird at his choice of food. Why did he have food here either way?

Shy reached for the glass, carressing it with his fingers. He had a vested interest in the project- after all, he had created it. But it still fascinated him, the different types that emerged from objects so simple.
"No one is sure why. A long time ago, the fae were worshipped as representations of gods, goddesses. They had powers no one else had, and were seen as immortals. Maybe this caused them to get ahead of themselves-- to become arrogant, complacent, too traditional? But they lost their powers slowly, stripped to become..." he paused, hesitated.
He had told this story so often, but now he wasn't sure how much of it still applied in truth. "Recently-- very recently, it has been discovered that not all the fae had died out. That the courts still existed, but..." he shrugged his shoulders lightly. "Even that is kept a secret." he almost smiled.
Almost.

I chewed on something, I dont know what, as I watched him sceptical. I couldnt help but press back to the chair some. This reminded me why I find scientists and alikes so spooky. They always had like super minds and were very secretive.
I see... I hope you will find more about it soon...
I look worried at the jar, thinking it will be a child of mine in some future.
Very soon so it wouldnt happen again... it sounds kind of lame thinking they would of droven themselves to death, all of them I mean... so.. yea.. I hope you will keep us _somewhat_ updated...
I said the word draged out, as I realized, he will never really tell everything. It wouldnt feel safe for him and his work. I just nodded and decided to accept the deal, that I will focuz on my child like I would any other and take the problems as they come.... My eyes did however reflect all my thoughts, my worries but determination.
Am sure you and your crew will have everything under controll.. now to, what to do with this jar here.. and what way do I best nurture for him or her? Something I should keep in mind?
I just hope whatever happened ages ago wouldnt happen again and if there still are remains, well that they wont have grown hostile..

"When your child is first..." She paused. "Born." he said. "They do not have memories of their past life. They are essentially, like children. Their nature, personality, knowledge will depend on your care in the same manner as any child. They do not get ill, though." Shy frowned. "They are perfect in health, as in any mental disabilities, physical disabilities only pass through from their previous life. They do not catch illnesses others might have, or lose their ability to speak."
Shy smiled. "Do you have any other children?" he asked.
"The fae... you'll need to bring them in for appointments after they are born. One or twice every month should be sufficient. It is because we have the technology to keep tabs on them, as well as the knowledge from older fae to help us out." he smiled.

Okay.. well that sounds actually good.. that they dont remember and are just like kids I mean... and dont even get sick.. lucky they are... remembering everything would probably overdo their minds.. cant be nice with two life memories ^^;
I tilted my head and smiled to Shy. He seemed very caring about the Faes.. still a bit weird, like most. But I have to coop with it. I nodded at his question.
Yes.. a few.. April my first born from my first relationship... and then I have some I adopted. I know of it, of course, they are very different from humans. Elementals, humanoids, winged ones and so forth... They all help out when needed and they know I need to spend more time with the youngest. Keagan, my oldest, he babysits and spends time with us all alot too, so does some others of the oldest.. very helpful really.
As for the appointments, I dont think that will be any issue. I can do it and even if I cant, am sure one of my oldest will. But, I am mostly free, unless Im at work that will say

Shy nodded his head. "We've got contacts of other owners, guardians, personal hand phone numbers of the fae-- so feel free to try them if you cannot get through to the lab." Shy got up, moving to his desk and tugging out a slim pale brown folder. "Although I don't see why it should be so hard... if anything happens to your fae, any thing at all, make sure to come back to us." he flicked her a quick smile. "We like to keep in touch.
((sketching your fae now. ))
Shy walked back, handed her the folder and arched his brow. "Now, why don't you tell me about yourself, and we can chat?"
((unless you have any questions, we can always skip past this, and to her getting up to leave? XDXD I'm horrible when it comes to rp time management~ ))
