Tessie brings her ‘dad’ Dr. Greenbox to the MBI so he can meet Tran. Mark is there to help them along as Tessie knows that Tran is afraid of all doctors, despite the fact that Dr. Greenbox isn’t the same kind of doctor as Dr. Viper was.
<Tessie_Reed> 4RPG GO!
<Dr_Greenbox> ::so! we driving to MBI, yes?::
* Sagey is now known as Mark_Sulfur
<Tessie_Reed> ::yes! convinced you to come meet her new friend!:: Thanks for coming, dad. ::grins:: Tran has wanted to meet you.
<Dr_Greenbox> Not a problem, Tessie. ::smiles to her:: I’m happy to help out a friend of yours as well as the MBI. ::pulls up and parks out front:: I’ll pay the meter, you go on inside.
<Dr_Greenbox> ((and I’ll be back in like 30 minutes guys!))
<Tessie_Reed> ((okies!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Kies!))
<Tran> ::nervious tapping his claws together as he walks back and forth in the basement… The “Father” was a doctor and Tessie’s father is a doctor… But when the only Doctor you know has been Viper, you will fear most of them… Decides to blunten his claws some more on the wall of the basement, no one has told him not to do that yet sooooo thinks it’s okay to do so… grabs a egg and sucks out the contents::
<Tran> ((Laters luv))
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods:: okay. ::smiles and gets out! heading inside to go find Tran! can run into Mark on her way::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::is heading back to the basement!::
<Tessie_Reed> ::then will see him:: Oh, hello Director Sulfur. ::smilesmile!::
<Mark_Sulfur> Hey, Tessie. What brings you here?
<Tran> ::the rat-ta-tat-tat of trans claws click on the ground as he walks::
<Tessie_Reed> I was going to see Tran. Dad, er…Dr. Greenbox is coming to meet him as well.
<Mark_Sulfur> Well, I was going to check on him, so… ::motions::
<Tessie_Reed> ::smiles and nods, going down with him!:: Tran?
<Mark_Sulfur> Yep.
<Tran> ::ears pick and walks towards the door, opening it:: Sister? ::sniffs the air and smiles… it’s that electronic scent… and… sniffs a bit more… what’s Mark Smell of?::
<Tessie_Reed> ((<Mark> An odd concoction of fries, coffee, donuts, and anger::))
<Tessie_Reed> ::grins:: It is me. ::going on down to hug Tran!::
<Tran> Sister ::beams and goes to pick her up as they hug… with Tran at 7 foot she gets picked up quite high:: And do I detect Master Mark near by?
<Tessie_Reed> ::lol! indeed considering she’s around 5′ tall is all.:: Yes you do.
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DEAD))
<Mark_Sulfur> ::blinks:: You… two know eachother?
<Tessie_Reed> Yes. I come here often to see Tran. I hope that is alright. ::smiling at mark::
<Tran> Tessis is Sister ::huggles her all cutey like:: Good Morning Master Mark
<Tran> ((So Mark smells like most guys?))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((:dies!:: What? XD))
<Mark_Sulfur> It’s fine…
<Tessie_Reed> ((::Diiies!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> And, good morning, Tran. How are you faring?
<Tessie_Reed> ::lol! trying to wiggle free now:: Good. Dad will be down in a few minutes.
<Tran> ::Tran’s name can be seen carved in too the wall behind him:: I am quite well master, I like this room, it has pipes for hanging on, is cool on hot days, hot on cool days and the walls are sharp enough to keep my Claws safely blunt ::beams:: And and I learnt I could do stuff ::clears his through and speaks in Marks Voice:: I am happy to be here and sister ::worried smile at Tessie::
<Tessie_Reed> ::smiles warmly at him:: He has also learned he can be like a chameleon. though he must be careful and not do it too much.
<Tran> I hope you have told your father I… am not to be Dissected. I know you said he wouldn’t but I am to a fan of doctors for a reason
<Tran> ::looks back to Mark and focuses on what’s behind him and stand still.. appears invisible like the stealth mode in Preditor::
<Tessie_Reed> He will not dissect you. ::giggles:: He is not that kind of scientist as I have told you.
<Mark_Sulfur> (brb)
<Tessie_Reed> ((okies!))
<Tran> ::speaks and you can sorta seen the background move:: I know, but I have had the “Father” teach me others where just out to dissect me… will take a while to break that mindset down
<Tran> ((okay))
<Tessie_Reed> I know. ::smiles:: This will help as he is very calm and will be easier than some to get used to.
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Sorry guys! Phone! ^^))
<Tessie_Reed> ((is okay! WB!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Thankies! ::scrolls up::))
<Tran> … will you… hold my hand when we meet… I want to know you are there at all times ::worried look mawwwwwww Mark could think it weird this thing could be worried by Greenbox::
<Tessie_Reed> Of course. ::smiles:: Till you are comfortable. Director Sulfur can be here too perhaps? ::looking to him::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::watches Tran, a little weirded out by the voice copy. XD:: Yeah, sure. ::still getting used to Tran::
<Dr_Greenbox> ((Magic Mun Pizza. If it’s not delivered in under 30 minutes, you pay double.))
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIES!:: WB!))
<Tran> ::becomes visible again and without saying anything has to go up in the cold pipes in the ceiling to get some eggs and juice from using all that power::
<Tran> ((LOL we’ll pay any price for you luv))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DEAD WB!))
<Tessie_Reed> :;watching him a moment then looks to Mark:: Things are good with you, yes?
<Mark_Sulfur> ::Watches him:: So how long have you been visiting him, Tessie?
<Dr_Greenbox> ::soon reaches inside. looks around now. scritches head trying to remember where Tessie said they’d meet this Tran at. ohyes. basement. searches for that while mun scrolling::
<Mark_Sulfur> And, they’re fine.
<Tessie_Reed> A while now. Trying to help him come out more. Help him understand this world. I remember how I felt when I was lost and am glad I had Dr. Greenbox to help me learn more. I want to do the same for Tran.
<Tran> ::the sound of eggshells being pierced and sucking as well as a few glugs of juice can be heard but nothing is since… Tran’s found the perfect hidding spot… if Mark looks in he’ll see an old desk covered in painted egshells::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::nods:: Couldn’tve picked a better teacher. ::smiles::
<Tessie_Reed> i hope so. ::smiles still:: Maybe one day he can go out of the basement more.
<Tessie_Reed> ::leans over to whisper:: perhaps if you gave him permission it would help. so he knows its okay.
<Tran> ::also on the MBI handbook… he’s up to page 220
<Dr_Greenbox> ::soon finds basement and goes down the stairs. wearing clothing of casual and somewhat sloppy as he did on the show. pair of grey pants, brown belt, yellow polo type shirt mostly tucked in. brown loafer shoes. hair slightly out of place ‘n all. watch on one arm.::
<Tran> ::… is naked XD keeps it simple::
<Dr_Greenbox> Tessie?
<Dr_Greenbox> ::asks as he looks about the large basement with fenced off evidence and other storage places and McGrath’s “office”::
<Tessie_Reed> Over here, dad! ::calls back!:: Tran! Dad is here. ::looking up at his hiding spot::
<Tran> ::… picks now to be shy and timid XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::heads to where he heard her. smiles at her then sees Mark:: Oh, hello, Director. Sulfur right?
<Mark_Sulfur> Yes. ::shakes his hand:: Nice to see you again, Doctor Greenbox.
<Tessie_Reed> ::smies:: Come on down. see? He looks like a nice tom, yes?
<Tran> ::wraps his tail round a pipe and slowly lowers himself down… sticking to the shadowest part of the room…out of the shadows his claws reach out… needing Tessie’s hand::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::shakes hand yes:: Thank you. I hope Tessie hasn’t been a bother to you.
<Tessie_Reed> ::maww will reach up to take his hand:: Its okay. Come on. Its okay.
<Mark_Sulfur> Not at all. She’s been very helpful.
<Tran> ::as he steps outta the shadow he goes invis before he’s out… Tessie will feel he’s shaking::… … … w-wear is his coat? D-doctors have white coats
<Dr_Greenbox> Oh good. ::peers curiously over to where Tess is. raises brow like “did I just see something?” XD::
<Tessie_Reed> Tran…::whispered:: Go back normal. You’re disappearing. And he doesn’t wear one all the time. Just when he’s at work..coem on now.
<Tran> … I did? ::blinks and with a gulp, the darkshadows as slowly turned green until a very tall viper creature is before him holding Tessie’s hand for support, bits his lower lip::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::watches all this::
<Tessie_Reed> Dad, this is Tran. ::smiles, patting Trans hand with her free hand::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::eyes widen a bit seeing him over there. glances at Mark like “this guy safe?”::
<Tran> … ::his head slightly hung, his gives a meek wave with his free claw:: H-hello, Master Tessie’s Father
<Mark_Sulfur> ::just nods::
<Tessie_Reed> ;:Giggles:: You can call him Dr. Greenbox if you want, Tran.
<Dr_Greenbox> Er, hello, Tran. And please, call me Leiter or just Dr. Greenbox if you want to be so formal.
<Tran> … Master d-d-d ::shakes his head and gives a nerivous grin:: Master Leiter it is then…
<Mark_Sulfur> ::chuckles:: Don’t worry, Tran. You’ll adapt before you know it.
<Tessie_Reed> ::simles:: see? He’s nice!
<Dr_Greenbox> ::chuckles too:: Come over here and let’s sit and talk. Is it alright if we go upstairs and use your breakroom, Director?
<Mark_Sulfur> ::nods, motions them to follow::
<Tran> ::looks to Master Mark to give him permission… kats could see Tran through the windows::
<Tessie_Reed> Come on, Tran! ::pulls him to come along!::
<Dr_Greenbox> ::goes after Mark up the stairs::
<Tran> ::pulled atlong… they looks do cute together ^^::
<Tessie_Reed> ::will bounce up the stairs with him! going to the breakroom with mark and her dad. ::
<Dr_Greenbox> ((<Greenbox> Just have her home by 9pm. <Tessie> What? That is way too early! <Greenbox> You’re still a toddler. you need to go to bed at 9. ::nodsnods:: <Tessie> Ugh!! <Tran> If nine is what he says, we must do it. <Tessie> You’re no help!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ::goes get them some coffee:: So what brings you around here, Doc?
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DEAD!))
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIIIES!::))
<Tessie_Reed> ::will lead Tran in and take a seat with him! keeping a hold of his hand till he leggos::
<Dr_Greenbox> Tessie wanted me to meet her friend Tran. She’s been visiting him often and keeping him company. ::takes a seat at a table::
<Tran> ((::dies!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> I see.
<Tessie_Reed> I hope you do not mind, Director. ::smiles a bit::
<Tran> ::sees down and shuffles away a bit when Greenbox seat down near him:: … Sister is a very kind girl ::smiles:: Keeps me company while I have been ajusting to this new life
<Dr_Greenbox> So you… have always been this way, Tran?
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::heard encountering a Pixie down the hall. not a friendly one either XD as she’s blown backwards by gust of wind! was on her way to breakroom:: <Tansy>::flies past and back to her post at the front desk::
<Mark_Sulfur> I don’t mind at all.
<Tessie_Reed> ::perks ears :: What is Lyons yelling about now? ::Frowns::
<Tran> … I know my body was reformatted during me time in the rebirthing chamber… but I have no memorys at all of before Master Leiter, so to me, I have always been what you see before you ::ear twitches:: What is a Lyons?
<Mark_Sulfur> Issues.
<Tessie_Reed> She is a very mean she-kat. ::frowning::
<Dr_Greenbox> Oh, I see. Does… Dr. Viper know you’re here?
<Tran> I … I do not know if the “Father” knows or cares of my where abouts. All I know is he was there when he put us in bio chambers, there was a long time of nosie and silences and moving… but I basically woke up here
<Mark_Sulfur> No, he doesn’t. We’ve kept him hidden.
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::almost won you in that auction, lizard boy! though didn’t get to see that was you inside. heels click clocking down. trying to brush her hair back properly after nearly being blown away XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> Ah good. I’d hate to think of him getting you back, much less coming here to do it.
<Tessie_Reed> ::Frowns:: Is someone coming down the hall?
<Mark_Sulfur> That’d be miss Lyons.
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> ::enters breakroom, looks ’round:: Mark, can’t you keeeee- what is THAT? ::backs up to the door at seeing Tran::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::sitting there nonchalant, drinking his coffee, even if he’s at some peace with Josie when they got their “rar your fault we broke up!” feelings out. XD::
<Mark_Sulfur> :then stands and tries to calm her down: It’s okay. He’s not gonna hurt you.
<Tran> I can smeel a shekat… she is angry ::looks to Tessie, then snaps around to look at Josie:: Mistress Lyons? ::goes to stand, Josie might thing it a treat XD::
<Tran> ::threat::
<Tessie_Reed> ::mrrs:: Tran…please sit. ::tugging at him to sit::
<Tran> … I was merely going to bow, sister
<Tessie_Reed> No, you do not have to bow. You bow to no one here, Tran.
<Dr_Greenbox> ::turns to see Josie enter. quiet::
<Dr_Greenbox> You sure about that? What is he?
<Dr_Greenbox> <JOSIE>^
<Tessie_Reed> He is a friend. ::tugs on Trans’ hand more to make him sit!::
<Tran> … ::pulled down XDD isn’t very strong::
<Tran> I am Tran… Mistress Josie
<Dr_Greenbox> Tran? You look like the son of Dr. Viper. <Greenbox>::noting how Tran seems to listen to Tessie – well eventually XD::
<Mark_Sulfur> It’s a complicated story. Please… sit down… :trying to coax her to a chair XD::
<Tran> … That is the name of the “Father” ::nods as if it wasn’t odd at all::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::the first one was her. lol is coaxed to a chair, though has hand in her jacket ready to whip out a gun XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> You really think of him as your father, Tran?
<Dr_Greenbox> ::poor poor Tran:;
<Tessie_Reed> ::pats Tran’s hand:: It is okay, Tran. ::smiles::
<Mark_Sulfur> Calm down… :to Josie::
<Mark_Sulfur> :stands behind her.XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> I’m FINE. ::shoves a bit at him to step off lol. looking over at him::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::steps back, arms up::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::turns her attention to Tran, narrowing eyes at him.::
<Tran> … I have his genetic code running through me… this is what is defind as a parent and he is a male therefore he os the “Father”… ::blinks his big yellow eyes:: I was raised by him and he installed rules into me… always refer to my betters as Master and always call the “Father” the “Father”
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::notes how close he and Tessie seem to be:: <Well, it’s a regular freak show here at the MBI…>
<Dr_Greenbox> ::chuckles a bit:: Your betters? Well I’m not better than you are, Tran.
<Tessie_Reed> He is like me. He was created in a lab by a villan. So he is still getting used to this life like I had to at first with you, dad. Learning to live like a normal biological.
<Dr_Greenbox> A shame he isn’t able to look like a normal biological as you do, dear. ::smiles kindly at Tran:: But I do hope you’re learning as much as you can from here.
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::quietly to Mark:: How did this… Tran thing end up here?
<Mark_Sulfur> ::small smirk:: Remember that auction?
<Tran> I am trying to learn… I want to no scare kats ::looks at Josie and his ears droop at the thing comment::
<Tessie_Reed> ::will slowly try to leggo of Trans hand while he is talking.::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> Yes, what about it? ::frowning as Mark didn’t let her have her way::
<Tran> You are all my betters… I am a thing… not a kat. I am owed, property and I will always see myself as such
<Tran> ::doesn’t notice his comfort hand is gone::
<Dr_Greenbox> That’s not true at all. You weren’t always like this, and even if you were, you’ve thoughts and feelings just like any other kat, just like Tessie.
<Mark_Sulfur> That’s what it was.
<Tessie_Reed> You were created as one being, Tran. You are becoming another. And that is just fine. I did it..I was like you. But I understand it takes time. so we take it one step at a time.
<Mark_Sulfur> ::stands:: If you’ll excuse me… ::heads on out to check on something!::
<Mark_Sulfur> ((BRB, guys. Dinner!))
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> THAT is the 5PY? ::huffs as he leaves. glares at Tran:: <He looks so frail and weak!>
<Tessie_Reed> ((okies!))
<Dr_Greenbox> ((ok!))
<Tran> … I am named Tran now Mistress Josie ::sad frown and uses her voice:: 5PY is a name I’d rather forget
<Dr_Greenbox> ::smiles at Tessie. she’s such a kind soul! forgets a lot of the time that she isn’t a regular kat::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> And why have you chosen this name?
<Tran> I am a slave inside my mind Master Leiter and it is programmed in deep… I live to serve ::ears drooping still in Lyons voice::
<Tessie_Reed> And he is not a thing or an it. He is a…well…he. ::heeeee! I am a good girl! where did I get that one from? XD::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie>::unnerved by him mimicing her voice XD::
<Tran> I am technically an it… I am non gender persific
<Tran> ::looks to Josie:: Because I liked it, Mistress and quite filling for me… as I can go Transparent
<Dr_Greenbox> You’ve got some great talents that’s for sure, Tran.
<Tran> ::blushes at that… goes a shade of red tips to toe::
<Tessie_Reed> He is still learning many of them. And strengthening others.
<Tessie_Reed> ::giggles at his red::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> Manufactured talents. Why do you not return for your ‘Father’, Tran? Are you not programmed to follow what he says?
<Dr_Greenbox> ::smiles a bit at his turning red as well, amused and curious::
<Tran> He abondoned me and my brotherhood to our own fates, and since we needed his mixture of eggs and juice which we had no idea how to get, he knew we couldn’t leave him so we never had that programmed in
<Tessie_Reed> We provide him with the eggs and juice now that he needs so he has no need to return to the father.
<Tran> Besides I follow the teachings of Tessie and Captain Cat now… and that makes The “Father” the villain
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> ::smirks a bit:: I take it then you’re aware of what you will become should that supply of eggs and juice run out?
<Dr_Greenbox> What you will become? ::looks to Tessie ‘n Tran::
<Tran> ::goes back to his normal green and blueish green, his tail reaches over the tail and curls around an egg:: We call it “the Wild” ::frowning at Josie:: Savage and… monsterous, I must intake nothing but eggs and juice and must intake them every 2 hours. I am very careful of this… it is why I was created the way I am
<Tessie_Reed> It is not a nice thing. But he has plenty of eggs and juice for a while. ::grins:: I got a local grocery store to donate their unwanted, and ruined eggs and juice.
<Dr_Greenbox> Oh my… you’ve… not been without since being here, have you? ::worried look::
<Tran> The “Father” feels his mind very very slowly slipping away from him as he’s DNA is turning wild… we were created to make reguler controled mutations into wilds and survive it… it is how I am able to munipulate my bio chemisty to form other things, like your voice Mistress Lyons
<Tran> If I had Master Leiter, this room or myself might not be here
<Tran> ::beams::
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> I do hope the MBI can continue to afford to keep you under control, Tran. Otherwise I’m afraid you may have an unfortunate end.
<Tran> I eat only a bare minimum Mistress ::look at me! I’m Skin and bones::
<Tessie_Reed> IT is costing us nothing at this moment. As I said, we are receiving donated eggs and juice that stores do not want anymore.
<Dr_Greenbox> But is that good for him? If the eggs are at their last day in expiring?
<Tran> I can eat any form of egg so long as it’s in it’s raw state ::takes an egg with his tail and holds it up to his mouth, his pointed tongue pierces it and he sucks out the insides through a small little hole::
<Tessie_Reed> ::grins watching him:: And we collect the shells and paint them. So far we have only given them away but I have thought of selling them to make soem money to pay for any upkeep costs he may have.
<Tessie_Reed> ((brb!))
<Dr_Greenbox> Paint them? <Josie> ::rolls her eyes:: I’m sure he’s a regular Monet.
<Tran> … ::leans across to Greenbox, confused look on his face:: Is a monat a good thing?
<Dr_Greenbox> ::chuckles and smiles kindly at him:: It’s a good thing. He was a great artist. :;not going to explain that Josie was being sarcastic:: May I see these eggs?
<Tran> ::beans… and stands to his 7 foot hight:: Only if you and sister do not mind walking back down to the basement with me ::needs Tessie there still::
<Dr_Greenbox> Well I know that I wouldn’t mind. How many have you done now?
<Mark_Sulfur> ((backs! Tho’ gimme a few as I’m gonna be on the phone with the folks soon))
<Dr_Greenbox> ((lol okay. WB sorta. -g-))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Thnankies!))
<Tran> 47 ::grins:: However I’m now running out of Captain Cat characters to paint ::pouts… Josie was probably too busy doing homework to ever watch the hit cartoons one was the Captain Cat that currently are being remade::
<Tran> ((okay ^^ sure thing::
<Tessie_Reed> ((back!))
<Tessie_Reed> ::stands up to go with them!:: I told him there were others to paint as wel.
<Dr_Greenbox> ((wb!))
<Dr_Greenbox> <Josie> ::homework or running. was on track team in middle and high school. -g- was outside playing younger than that instead of sitting in front of the TV::
<Tran> ((WB))
<Dr_Greenbox> ::stands and chuckles:: Let’s go take a look.
