Rake? Sand? What?

[Raleigh]

*Raleigh can be seen tinkering in a corner of the local park setting up what would appear to be a rock and sand garden.* I suppose setting up a meditation location for people might qualify as a good deed for the day. That and a good tax write off as a contribution to the city, heh. *He sets the rake aside after finishing up making a pattern in the sand and walks over to a suitable rock to rest on.* Perhaps arrange for a few dojos to open for the children? At any rate I like this. I think I'll make one for the DrakeCorp sponsored orphanage.

[AmbushCat]

*Echo squeezes through the rake's shadow and trots over to join Raleigh.*

Echo: Pleasant day.

[Jello Shot Mischa]

And some bratty kids run into the garden, kick the sand about to mess up the pattern, and then laugh at Raleigh! "Look at the stupid old man! Him and his stupid sandbox!"

With another laugh, they run off!

[Raleigh]

Indeed it is Echo. How have you been?

*Watching the brats mess up the garden he chuckles.* I'll admit it won't make a sandcastle but I thought kids liked sandboxes. *Begins to draw some little figures in the sand that look somewhat like the Nazca line condor. The lines become constructs and take off to chase after the brats and annoy them a bit.* One should always be mindful of disturbing a dragon's projects.

[Jello Shot Mischa]

The two brats shriek in terror as the constructs start chasing after them, chasing them around the playground and annoying them!

Meanwhile, Mischa wanders up to Raleigh! We'll say it's the normal male one... since he's got that soap bubble solution the Jello Mischa bought once, and never got to try out. "Hey Raleigh, what're you up to?"

[Raleigh]

Making a zen garden and enjoying it. How about yourself?

[AmbushCat]

Indeed it is Echo. How have you been?

Echo: I have been alright. Lazing in the sun, exploring the yard... just another typical day in the life of a cat. *tail twitches a bit* I've had to keep my ears open, though. I have been told that there's an evil clone of Eebon on the loose somewhere.

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Mischa glances over the messed up sand. "Oh, is this one of those sand gardens? It... looks kind of messy..." he admits, before laughing a bit embarassedly. "Sorry. I just figured I'd get out and enjoy the summer weather a bit, and remembered my Jello self had bought this at your store... figured I'd blow some soap bubbles."

[Raleigh]

An evil clone of Eebon eh? Know who made her or why? Your sister is safe right?

Some kids messed it up Mischa. By the way, do you know Echo here? Echo, do you know Mischa?

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Mischa waves to Echo! "The name sounds familiar... although there's so many different members of AmbushCat's family I'm starting to lose track." He smiles. "I know Eebon though!"

[Maiden Miki]

"Hmm....What is going on here?" asked Mike as he seem to be falling out of a tree that was close by. He rubbed his eye and looked down to see that he was close to stepping on the rock garden.

[AmbushCat]

An evil clone of Eebon eh? Know who made her or why? Your sister is safe right?

Some kids messed it up Mischa. By the way, do you know Echo here? Echo, do you know Mischa?

Echo: *to Raleigh* From what I was told, it was an accident. Eebon accidentally dimenported into this laboratory... *thinks* ...belonged to someone associated with Feng, if I recall correctly... and one of the maids fed her tainted fish by mistake while trying to be hospitable.

Mischa waves to Echo! "The name sounds familiar... although there's so many different members of AmbushCat's family I'm starting to lose track." He smiles. "I know Eebon though!"

Echo: *answering the both of them* We met briefly... *thinks back* ...at I think Circe's manor a few years ago. Something about me having my picture taken with her.

[Raleigh]

Just a meeting of some of the residents in the end I believe, Mike. How do you like the new rock garden I put in?

Remind me to point out to Feng that his maids should be more careful about who they feed what to. Good to hear you two have met then. So, think the garden will have a nice sunning spot, Echo? I was hopping to accommodate more or less everyone with it.

[Maiden Miki]

"Mind if I join in? It does seem that I live in this park," said Mike as he looks for a rock to sit on. "Looks nice. To tell the truth I never actually seen one of these things in person."

[Jello Shot Mischa]

Echo: *answering the both of them* We met briefly... *thinks back* ...at I think Circe's manor a few years ago. Something about me having my picture taken with her.

Mischa hmms. "Was that when Utsuko was taking pictures of her and publishing them in her paper? Those were good times..." He chuckles!
