<div></div><br> <br>The calm bright and sunny day just outside the Surrogate Brotherhood Headquarters is interrupted by a gruff looking tiger that seems loaded down with packs. Especially disconcerting is the larger back on his back that bulges in places. As she walks up to the entrance with her hands gripping the straps of his backpack on his chest he looks to the door and sighs. &quot;Finally!&quot; he huffs, taking a few steps forward. The tiger, looks to the door of SB and wonders how to get anyones attention in such a big place! Without better idea, he walks to knock on the door.<br> <br>It just so happens that Jaqui is the closest person to the main door at the time, exiting her workshop into the foyer. Hearing the knocks, she goes to answer the door, a rather short hyena who clearly looks like a craftswoman. &quot;Hola! You must be the Promethean instructor, come on in.&quot; she greets, holding the large door open for him to walk in, though clearly such a diminutive and petite girl would be unable to lighten his load. &quot;So what&#39;s the plan? I&#39;m ready to learn.&quot;<br> <br>Rounded, slightly sleepy, and having more than a little trouble walking with those inside hir, along with those balls and breasts, it takes Miranai quite a bit longer to come out from the workshop than Jaqui, &quot;Little dear, who is it there?&quot; Shi yaps and churrs out while rubbing an eye. Decent, at least by &#39;normal&#39; standards, most everything is still partly on display, &quot;Oh, Prometheans?&quot; Shi yawns again, &quot;Tell them I&#39;ll have the next batch of hammers and backhoes done tomorrow...&quot; She says, &quot;And... when are we getting the coffee maker hooked up?&quot; Shi says, almost as if shi isn&#39;t aware of what is going on, or just woke up.<br> <br>Sakura follows in after Mira, and seems to be dressed in her usual clothes, nothing covering her chest however. Her belly seems unusually large, however not large enough to make walking inpossible. &quot;Mommy? When did you said that someone&#39;s gonna come and teach us some techy stuff?&quot; she can be heard saying before she steps into the room. She looks curious at the tiger and then at Jaqui and her ears flicker as she hears her talking. &quot;Oh! Is the teaching stuff today?&quot; she asks Jaqui curious.<br> <br>Cyrr steps out onto the 2nd floor of the foyer landing, adjusting hir robe as shi goes. Hearing the door open and voices the vixen steps over to the railing to peer down. Ah company! And the power representative to boot. Cyrr grins, shi had been on hir way to grab some brunch but this would be a welcome diversion as well. &quot;Good morning everyone.&quot; Shi calls out as shi descends the stairs.<br> <br>The tiger nods to everyone. &quot;I&#39;m not the Promethian representative. She should be here shortly.&quot; He gives an annoyed glance back to where he came from, but finds nobody of note. His attention returns to the group, though he hides his reaction to the group, it falters a bit when he sees Mira as he gives her a short wide-eyed shock. Recomposing himself he introduces himself more formally. &quot;I am Bran, I&#39;ll be helping Anna.&quot; Then muttering under his breath he adds, &quot;...When she gets here.&quot; Looking to the group he asks, &quot;Is there a suitable area to set up? I need some room if I&#39;m going to be setting this stuff up.&quot; Bran seems to be fatigued, but composed and hides his mood behind a neutral and professional attitude.<br> <br>Jaqui can&#39;t help but chuckle from Mira&#39;s words, closing the door behind Bran and going to pat at Mira&#39;s side. &quot;Mi amante, this is...&quot; she trails off as he says he&#39;s the assistant, giving a nod. &quot;This is the representative&#39;s assistant. I&#39;m going to get him set up in the dining hall, okay? Then I&#39;ll get you something to wake up with.&quot; she says, beckoning Bran as she moves towards the dining hall, waving to Cyrr on the way. &quot;I&#39;m Jaqui, and the big one is Mira.&quot; she teases, laughing afterwords at her own joke.<br> <br>Miranai yawns a bit more, still rubbing her eyes, even as shi is patted on, &quot;Oh! Hi there...&quot; Shi says, grumbling a bit. &quot;Come on in, can I get you some refreshment?&quot; Shi asks, though as shi&#39;s talking the &#39;refreshements&#39; are flowing freely from hir, soaking hir clothing, and dripping in small rivers upon the floor under hir! &quot;And the dining hall? Ok... if you think that is a good idea.&quot; Shi says, yawning a bit more widely! &quot;Pardon, my kits make it a bit hard to sleep sometimes.&quot; Shi says, &quot;I&#39;ll go make some coffee...&quot; Shi continues turning slowly, giving quite a show as shi walks.<br> <br>Sakura listens to Jaqui and Bran talk and waves towards him. &quot;Oh, hi, and me Sakura&quot; she smiles before looking up &quot;Morning Cyrr.&quot; she greets hir and looks at Mira &quot;If you&#39;re gonna make some stuff, get me something too, ok?&quot; she asks and follows Jaqui towars the dining hall. &quot;So does this other person that has to come, know how to get here?&quot; she asks.<br> <br>Cyrr can&#39;t help but giggle as shi catches the look Bran gives Mira. Oh the poor flustered fellow. &quot;A pleasure to meet you Bran. I&#39;ll be along in a few to help set up if you need it, I need to grab something to nibble on first.&quot; Shi pads after Mira, giving the taur a hug when it&#39;s convenient, and follows to the kitchen. Fixing up a few plates of bread and whatever spreads they happen to have around in case some of the others are hungry as well.<br> <br>When the group introduces themselves he nods. &quot;Greetings. If you need anything, ask Anna.&quot; To Mira&#39;s offer he nods. &quot;Some water will be fine.&quot; He says with a slight tone of reservation. When Jaqui offers to lead him to the dining hall, he looks over the place. &quot;This will do.&quot; He then looks to Sakura, &quot;Anna knows where we are. She&#39;s....&quot; He struggles to find the right word for a moment in an attempt to remain as professional as possible. &quot;...examining something. She should be here shortly.&quot; With that, he places down the packs from his sides as well as his large backpack. They clatter and jangle loudly with a thud as they hit the floor. As Bran unstraps himself he stands up and begins moving his arms and stretching out his legs a little as he helps the strain of his former load out of his body.<br> <br>Jaqui watches the tiger unload his stuff, impressed he was able to carry all that heere. &quot;You had a long trip, and with no help from your partner. If you need anything more than just water, let us know.&quot; she says, glancing over and watching Mira and Cyrr head for the kitchen first. &quot;Mira&#39;s gonna need some coffe before shi can do any learning. I can stick around and help you get stuff set up if you want. I know some basic electronics and mechanics.&quot; she offers, occasionally glancing at the door to the foyer in hopes the representative would show up already.<br> <br>In the kitchen itself, Mira watched Cyrr make up some food, get hugged, and then walk back out. Shi, meanwhile, had managed to find the coffee maker. It was upon the counter top, but with hir assets, finding things wasn&#39;t easy, even more tough when you weren&#39;t awake yet. Eventually, shi got it plugged in as well. Though when shi went to get the coffee itself to grind it up and brew... there was none. For what seems to be the longest time shi just stares at the blank space where the beans should be. It takes a while, but shi does return, &quot;We&#39;re out...&quot; Shi says, watching as things are set up. &quot;I&#39;ll wake up... though, eventually...&quot; Shi says, still leaking everywhere shi walks!<br> <br>Sakura nods to Bran and watches him unpack. &quot;Wow.. that&#39;s a lot of stuff..&quot; she says and takes a seat on a chair, letting out a sigh as she rests. She glances over to Mira as she returns &quot;Out of what?&quot; she asks.<br> <br>Snacks/brunch prepared the vixen carefully loads a tray onto the mass of tails behind hir then picks up another in hir arms. Walking slowly down the hallway towards the dining room. &quot;If you&#39;re hungry got some bread here.&quot; Cyrr calls out cheerily as shi enters. Setting down one platter which had the bread, cheese, and peanut butter, then taking the tray from hir tails which had a few pieces of fruit, glasses, and a pitcher of water along side it. &quot;Anything I can help with?&quot;<br> <br>Bran flexes his muscles, then lays her back against the wall, closing his eyes a bit. Speaking to jaqui he nods. &quot;Okay, I&#39;ve got time.&quot; Soon though a mouse runs in through the main door, following the scent of her tiger companion and busts inside with skip in her step. Though on the short side, the mouse wears a plain shirt and pants that cling to her body. With a smile and a small flower hung off her ear she looks to Bran in his kemono and yells. &quot;Bran! Wake up! No slacking off!&quot; Bran is startled and practically jumps off the wall until he sees the mouse girl and sighs. &quot;Can&#39;t I rest for a moment?! That stuff was heavy!&quot; The mouse then bounds for the table and climbs up on it. &quot;Oh fine, but you still have work to do!&quot; Bran groans and leans himself back on the wall. Once she see&#39;s Cyrr leave the kitchen with some snacks she drops her bag and darts to Cyrr, taking one and immediately gobbling it down. &quot;Thanks foxy!&quot; Which she then makes her way back on the table to sort through her bag to produce a pile of prepared paperwork. Dropping the pile of documents down she announces to the group, &quot;I&#39;m Anna, the one Nichole chose to teach everyone how to put together the sparkly zappy stuff!&quot;<br> <br>Jaqui looks to Mira as shi comes back out of the kitchen, frowning a bit. &quot;Well, that&#39;s no good, we&#39;ll just have to get some more, yea?&quot; she asks, heading for Cyrr to grab sone of the snak food shi brought out, wolfing it down. &quot;Hey, thanks Cyrr. Don&#39;t forget about our guest.&quot; she reminds, though when Anna bursts into the dining hall, she can&#39;t help gawking at her actions, rather stunned. The mouse jumping up onto a table snaps her out of her speechlessness though, and he heads over towards her. &quot;Oye! No feet on the tables! I picked the dining hall so you could use the stage, comprender perra?&quot; she says to the mouse, pointing to the rather large stage jutting out from the north wall of the room they&#39;re all in.<br> <br>Not quite all together, Mira looks about the room, &quot;Oh... this is some nice stuff, but.. coffee...&quot; Shi says, yawning afterward again. When the mouse comes in and starts up, hir ears just pin back. Giving a shake of hir head though shi nods at what Jaqui says, &quot;Yes... just need to go get more... back in a few hours...&quot; Shi says, waddling walking hir way around the tables, equipment, and people. Hir cock dripping, hir breasts leaking, shi wasn&#39;t quite ready to go outside yet, but, that is what shi does. Heading for the helicopter pad, shi gives a slight wave as shi goes!<br> <br>Sakura lets out a startled yip as Anna practically bursts into the room, being all loud and bossy. She glances from her to Bran and shakes her head, imagining what he must&#39;ve been through. &quot;Me think is too early for me to learn stuff..&quot; she says and shakes her head. She moves towards Cyrr and takes on the snacks, giving hir a hug as a thanks &quot;Me might be back later.&quot; she smiles and waves to everyone in the room. &quot;See you all later.&quot; she says and leaves shortly after Mira.<br> <br>Cyrr gives a startled yip as the mouse darts towards hir and snatches some bread off the platter. &quot;Eager aren&#39;t you?&quot; This certainly seemed like it would end up being an interesting meeting given the energy of their presenter. Picking up a piece of bread and cheese the vixen takes a bite while considering the pile of equipment. &quot;Need help getting things set up?&quot; Pouring a glass of water for Bran and passing it to them.<br> <br>Bran gratefully takes the glass of water from Cyrr and gulps it down quickly. &quot;Ahh... I needed that...&quot; Noting the break in his composure he returns the glass to Cyrr and stiffens up again. &quot;Thank you for the watter.&quot; He then makes his way to a chair and sits at the table. &quot;Anna, we are guests here.&quot; Anna gives Bran a look and sighs. &quot;Fiiine.&quot; She sticks the bread in her muzzle and begins gathering the necessary papers for the moment, then jumps off to make her way to Jaqui and Cyrr, handing both of them a folder each. Walking back to the table she makes her way next to Bran and takes a seat next to him as she eats. &quot;Right! First things first. Read over the papers while I lecture you about safety. No moaning! If you thought I was energetic, you should see me hooked up to the power grid! It&#39;s no fun!&quot; Bran meanwhile, is more concerned by resting while Anna tilts the chair back and leans. Inside the folders, however are articulately well put together with diagrams and blueprints of various electrical systems along with helpful notes on the side. Among the top of the pages however is a safety checklist and a quick guide on how to read electronic diagrams.<br> <br>Bran, as he watches people leave perks up. &quot;Apologies for Anna, she can be brash and impulsive at times but she knows what she&#39;s doing.&quot; Looking to Sakura and Mira as they make their way out. &quot;If you two are still interested in in the proceedings, Anna and I will still be around for a while to help things along. We can, at least, have more focuses one on one sessions.&quot;<br> <br>Jaqui takes her own seat as well, accepting the folder and opening it up to read. After a moment, she perks up, having just realized something. &quot;Oye, you got this in Spanish? If you don&#39;t, no problem.&quot; she says, but begins to read up on the safety regardless, at least until the lecture starts. Having such an opportunity excites her, the hyena more then ready to learn how to do this stuff.<br> <br>From a room away there is a sudden BANG! Followed by what sounds like some things falling over, claws on the floor, then another BANG! as something slams into a wall! More skidding of claws on floor then, bursting through the door, Aimee skidding into the dining room! She&#39;s yelping loudly and running on all fours, leaking breasts swaying every which way under her as she darts about yelping at the top of her lungs! She&#39;s a blur of black and white fur, speeding about and bouncing off of just about every consivable surface! Out the room... then back into it!<br> <br>Cyrr grins as shi takes the glass and sets it back on a tray. Looking between him and Anna. &quot;Quite the interesting duo...&quot; Shi murmurs. Finishing up hir slice of bread the vixen takes the presented folder and flicks through their contents for a few moments. &quot;Excellent, this is precisely what we needed. The library had some things but not specifics like these.&quot; Stepping over to a chair shi goes to take a seat. &quot;Still I&#39;m going ot have to make a note to do something about my tails when I work on these systems... To much fluff to be good for electric-&quot; Aimee&#39;s sudden arrival startles Cyrr, disrupting hir train of thought, and causing hir to miss the chair entirely. Plopping down roughly onto the floor even as hir tails curl about hir reflexively. Head turning shi laughs when shi locates the source of the disturbance. &quot;Oh somethings got her riled up. Come here Aimee, come lay down.&quot; Reaching out a beckoning hand.<br> <br>To Jaqui&#39;s inquiry, Anna looks stunned and looks back to Bran who is currently smirking slightly, though trying to keep his professional demeanor. Anna looks back to her bag and digs into it, she reaches in for a folder when she starts hearing something aproaching. &quot;Br-&quot; Her inquisitive tone to Bran is cut off when a streak of black and white crashes through the area. She identify&#39;s the sound and calls out for Bran. &quot;Bran! Feral!&quot; Bran though was already out of his seat and getting ready to grapple with the seemingly crazed canine as things crash and clatter around them. Anna just barely keeping her papers in her grasp as she curls defensively around them. When Aimme comes around again, Bran catches Aime and grabs on with all his might. At least he would have if he wasn&#39;t thrown back into the wall and out of Aimee&#39;s way.<br> <br>Jaqui can&#39;t help but chuckle amusedly as she stumps Anna, watching her scrounge for a Spanish copy. She could read English just fine, she just preferred Spanish, as it was easier. &quot;Like I said, if you don&#39;t have one, don&#39;t worry about-&quot; she too is cutt off by the loud yips and crashes, and Aimee bursting through the door. She&#39;s not even sure what it was that bursts in here and speeds out equally as fast, knocking Bran out of his seat. &quot;Hol mierda! Lo que en la Tierra fue eso!?&quot; she blurts out in surprise, trying to follow the husky, but she&#39;s so fast. &quot;What&#39;s up with that!?&quot; she asks, not too sure how to react to such a thing just now.<br> <br>Aimee continues to yap and speed about! For a while she just runs around in cirlces, barking and yelping, seemingly at her own tail. Cyrr tries to get a hold on her, but she is just too fast and too strong, nor is she particularly swayed to stop at sit with him with whatever it is bothering her! She runs literally off the walls for a while before running out of the room, around the building a bit, then back into the room once more!<br> <br>&quot;She&#39;s one of ours...&quot; Cyrr winces as Bran goes flying. &quot;Aimee... You&#39;ve gotta tell us what&#39;s wrong gal.&quot; The vixen slowly stands up, tails spreading outward. &quot;Can&#39;t do that without you slowing down...&quot; Shi waits for the husky to pass by then tries to flip onto her back! Though she&#39;s left clutching nothing but loose fur as, the husky apparently to fast for hir, before hitting the floor. Tails draping about as shi&#39;s left in a revealing position. Robe flipped forward, rear end in the air.<br> <br>Anna catches sight of Bran getting knocked into a wall as he leaves a dent into the wall as and slides down. Bran is dazed for a moment but slowly collects himself. Anna whimpers and looks to Cyrr as he explains. &quot;One of yours?! Bran? Bran! Get up!&quot; Bran on the other hand shakes himself off and looks to the husky. &quot;Ugh... I shouldn&#39;t have skipped my exorcises...&quot; He takes a moment to re-evaluate his strategy. &quot;One of yours, huh? ...There goes my idea.&quot;<br> <br>All Jaqui can really do as Aimee zooms in and out of the dining hall is try to get a good look at the poor thing, not strong or fast enough to catch or stop her. &quot;What the hell&#39;s gotten into her? Damn, I didn&#39;t think anyone could go that fast with tits like hers...&quot; she comments, risking a trip to Bran to help him up, even with her small stature.<br> <br>Aimee for a while doesn&#39;t stop for a moment! Continuing to run about, yelping and barking, running in circles at her own tail for a while, then out and about the building once again, then back in! She stops for only a bit as she wags her tail about, then chases it some more! She&#39;d be a champion at pulling a sled! She continues, however, to knock over equipment!<br> <br>It takes several moments for Cyrr to collect hirself. Gradually sitting upright and fixing hir robe to cover hirself once more before carefully watching Aimee as she runs about. &quot;Shes... Got something on her. Come here Aimee! I&#39;ll get it off!&quot; She makes grabbing motions towards Aimee but otherwise stays sitting.<br> <br>Anna continues to guard her papers and bag, even as the rest of the stuff they brang is knocked over and trample on. She sighs as she figure&#39;s she&#39;ll have to fix later, or worse, travel all the way back to get replacements. Bran on the other has is helped on by Jaqui and gives her a quick and polite &quot;Thanks.&quot; Bran notices the huskies tits as the hyena comments and lifts a brow. &quot;How do you go a day without slipping on milk with her around?&quot; Noting Cyrr&#39;s remark about Aimee&#39;s he hopes she&#39;s collected enough to actually come to Cyrr and watches.<br> <br>Jaqui shrugs as she&#39;s thanked, carefully finding her seat again, trying to avoid getting bull-rushed by Aimee. &quot;No prob. And trust me, you get used to it.&quot; she says, chuckling after his question. Hearing Cyrr though, she looks over. &quot;Que? Something on her? Is it her tail?&quot; she laughs after that, noticing how it almost looks like she&#39;s chasing it, but there&#39;s still something off about the way she&#39;s moving. She decides to give it a go herself, rather than doing nothing, and calls Aimee over to where she is. &quot;Oye, over here! I&#39;ll help you Aimee, I just need to see it.&quot;<br> <br>Aimee continues to run around, until finally Jackie and Cyrr&#39;s words sink into her. She runs around for a bit longer, biting at her tail for a while! She looks between the two of them, but Cyrr seems to be a bit more inticing... however, Aimee only has two speeds. Dead stop and full bore! Aimee rushes at Cyrr and leaps at her, yelps taking on a bit more of a &#39;HELPHELPHELPHELPHELP&#39; sound as she lunges through the air!<br> <br>&quot;Trust me, there is more than enough milk going around and not just from her.&quot; Cyrr comments dryly at Bran&#39;s remark. Still when Aimee stops a big grin spreads across the vixen&#39;s face which is then dashed as the husky decides to run full bore at hir. &quot;Aimee slow do-&quot; With a loud thump Aimee crashes into Cyrr, easily knocking hir flat out with the husky on top of hir. &quot;I guess... That works.&quot; Shi wheezes. Hands trying to grab at the tail and offending passenger.<br> <br>Anna is huddles down around her papers and watches gives Aimee a cautious watch. Bran, at Jaqui&#39;s comment lets out a half-chuckle. Walking over to Aimee and Cyr Bran looks down at the husky. &quot;Huh. Is that a.... crab? Where did she find a crab?&quot; Looking over to Jaqui he gives her a tilt of his head in gesture to Aimee. &quot;Could you help? I don&#39;t want to get close to her. My chest hurts...&quot; He makes her way to Anna and rubs her back. &quot;Hey, I think things are calming down. I&#39;ll check the supplies.&quot; Anna nods, but is still quite scared!<br> <br>Jaqui rolls her eyes a little as she&#39;s asked to help, getting up off her seat to go get the crab off her tail. &quot;Come on, don&#39;t be a wimp!&quot; she chuckles, heading over to Aimee anyway. &quot;How this little guy stayed on her tail is beyond me.&quot; she says to Aimee and Cyrr mostly, retrieving a wooden mallet from her toolbelt and prodding the crab with the handle, hoping for it to clamp onto that instead.<br> <br>Aimee holds onto Cyrr after knocking hir over for what seems like forever to the husky, that is, until Jackie managed to make it go away! She blinks a litle bit, but then, turns on Jackie! She assults the hyena with licks! Barking and yapping &quot;THANKYOUITHURTSOMUCHITWOULDNTSTOPONAIMEETAILNOWITGONEANDYOUNEEDKISSES!&quot; as her tongue works to leave no spot on Jackie unmolested in her passion! After that&#39;s done however, she sits down, much like a dog would, tits and cunts still leaking as she looks around. &quot;What is?&quot; she barks out.<br> <br>Cyrr rubs at Aimee&#39;s sides while the husky is on top of hir, trying to keep the canine calm while the others deal with the crab. Then lets out a low groan as Aimee bounds off hir and at Jackie. &quot;Ah... Good job.&quot; Shi says with a wince, sitting up. Then scooching over to pet Aimee once she&#39;s fully calmed down. &quot;As to where, I have no clue. Maybe someone accidentally dropped it in the river upstream. Either way we could always toss it in a pot later.&quot;<br> <br>Anna is laying there shaking, calmed down only enough to ask, &quot;Is it over?&quot; Bran meanwhile digs through the packs of stuff the brought. &quot;Some of the frames are broke... some of the boxes and bent a bit... wires are fine... tools are fine... Nothing we can&#39;t fix later. It&#39;s not like we need everything to be up to code, but I would get some sand ready just incase...&quot; With a sudden jolt he checks another pack and sighs in relief. &quot;Batteries are fine too, thankfully....&quot; Standing up he walks to to Anna and prods her on the shoulder. &quot;Anna, look, she&#39;s fine, the husky&#39;s assaulting someone with licks. It was just a crab.&quot; He sits back down next to Anna and watches her carefully. Anna slowly calms down and looks to the calm and collected tiger. Anna sighs and lays back in her chair and takes a quick inventory of her papers as she calms down and takes out a specially marked folder and lays it down on the other side of the table.<br> <br>Jaqui smiles as her idea works, though there&#39;s only a short moment before Aimee is suddenly tackling her down, assaulting her with licks. She squirms and struggles, crying out in shock. &quot;Aimee! Mueve el culo de encima!&quot; she tries, batting at her face lightly, but also laughing at the situation. Once she&#39;s done, Jaqui picks herself back up, shuddering a bit. &quot;Salvaje maldito... You&#39;re welcome, just be careful, okay?&quot; says to the husky, carefully taking her seat again, clothes a bit disheveled now.<br> <br>Aimee looks around blankly at all the destruction she has caused, panting softly and tail wagging. However, she doesn&#39;t get an answer to her question! She whines a bit, &quot;What is?&quot; She asks again, looking about, getting up to sniff at some of the broken pieces of frame, she takes one in her mouth and brings it over to Jackie, dropping it at her feet, &quot;You need? Need this yes?&quot; She asks and noses it closer to the hyena.<br> <br>Cyrr scratches hir head and looks over to where the recovering Anna is being reassured by Bran. &quot;Sorry about that... I can straighten anything that got bent no problem.&quot; Then as Aimee hunts around in the broken parts the vixen laughs. &quot;They&#39;re parts for generators. Um...&quot; Shi tries to think of something that Aimee might know. &quot;Like for the flashing lights or making food hot without using a fire.&quot; Shi looks over at hir own folder which had a big paw print in the middle of it now, though other than that seemed fine so shi picks it up then goes over to examine special folder. &quot;And what might this be?&quot;<br> <br>Bran looks back at the pack after Aimee pads off with a familiar piece of frame.  With a quick glance he finds out where it came from and stares at the back a bit before he turns back around in his seat and sighs as he leans back. However, once his back hits the backside of the chair he hisses out in pain and sits back up to lean on his arms instead. Anna frowns to Bran, but looks over to Cyrr and Aimee. &quot;Actually, those were part of a later lesson on wiring. Generators, high-power wires, and the sort is rare and your problem. Thats what the papers are for. Generators and parts a harder to come by.&quot; Looking to Jacqui she points out the folder she dropped. &quot;Thats for you.&quot; The front of the folder is titled in English, but  also has it written in Spanish under. Should Jaqui look, there&#39;s a copy of all the text in Spanish, but but not as well put together and spoken. Anna lays back in her chair to relax. &quot;Thank Bran for that one, I lost a bet to him because of you.&quot; She tries to sound perky, but comes off with a matter-of-factly tone.<br> <br>Jaqui tilts her head a bit as Aimee brings her a piece of the hardware, recognizing that it&#39;s quite broken. &quot;Well... Maybe.&quot; she replies, picking it up and examining it. &quot;This one&#39;s broken, but I could probably fix it. We&#39;re learning how to get power, Aimee. What Cyrr said.&quot; she replies, setting the broken piece on the table. Her attention is pulled by Anna however, eyes going a bit wide when the Spanish folder is pointed out. &quot;Wow, I didn&#39;t think you&#39;d actually have one, thanks.&quot; she gets up to pick retrieve the documents, reading through the Spanish bits a little quicker. &quot;Anyway, a lecture, you said? I&#39;m ready for it.&quot;<br> <br>Aimee smiles wide as her gift is accepted! &quot;Aimee help helper hyena helped Aimee!&quot; She says excitedly before stuffing herself under a table. She walks about in a circle a few times before settling down, still leaking everywhere, licking her own cunts for a while, then, yawning and taking a nap.<br> <br>Cyrr considers for several moments. &quot;Very true... I need to poke about and see if there might be a way of setting up a new line of production... I bet Zephyr has something up their sleeve. That&#39;s for another time altogether though. Gotta have the resources to do it first.&quot; Shi thumbs through hir own folder again making sure everything wasn&#39;t to damaged. Leaning over to watch Aimee get comfortable with a smile before finding a seat in an unbroken chair. &quot;Anyway yes, lets move on. Still feel up for lecturing?&quot; Shi cocks an eyebrow.<br> <br>Bran is looking toward Aimee with a slight smile as she watches her now much more tame antics, reminding him of a time before. Anna Says to Jaqui, &quot;I don&#39;t know if it&#39;s anything as good as the English copy but yea, thats the only one.&quot; She takes a deep breath as she watches Aimee herself, calming down at the now placated husky but still is rattled for the moment. &quot;What was I saying....&quot; She thinks a moment before getting a spark of recollection. &quot;Safety! Thats right! The number one thing to keep in mind, safety glasses and something rubber to put on your feet! It&#39;s not something you think of, but you should have at least half an inch of rubber on your feet between the ground!&quot; Bran looks a bit distracted as Anna starts talking, between looking at Aimee and the soreness now making itself apparent in his chest he watches the others.<br> <br>Jaqui laughs softly as Aimee hides under a table, a bit curious about that, but then Anna starts talking again. &quot;Eh, it&#39;s good enough.&quot; she replies, but puts the folder down to listen to Anna talk about safety. She can listen faster than she can read any day. Nodding along with what she&#39;s hearing, she finds the revelation of electric safety quite interesting, remembering what she&#39;s told.<br> <br>&quot;I suppose shifting to something more rubber like wouldn&#39;t be sufficient...&quot; Cyrr ponders, tails dancing about. &quot;What about those with electrical nanomagic? Or perhaps even more so?&quot; As the ideas tumble in hir head so to does the vixen&#39;s tails sway back and forth more and more. Hir ears stay directed towards Anna but hir eyes flick towards Bran every now and again. Was he just being wary or something else...?<br> <br>Anna shrugs. &quot;Come to think of it, we never tested on rubber people before. I don&#39;t know how nanomagic works. Was never able to afford it myself so I don&#39;t bother with it.&quot; Bran looks like he&#39;s just resting himself for now as he leans with his arms on the table. Anna continues, &quot;I suppose electricity would find it harder to reach your organs if you were covered in rubber, but I&#39;m not one to take chances. NEXT, keep lose things to yourself! Tails keep wrapped up close to your body as much as you can and always off the ground! One wrong swing of a tail next to a pair of generators and you are a new wire! One swing near a transformer and you are a new wire! Your job is it fix wires, not be them!&quot; Bran winces at the mention, bit doesn&#39;t let on why.<br> <br>Jaqui nods along with Anna&#39;s lecture, glancing a moment at Bran. Even if he looks to be in pain, there isn&#39;t much she can do about it. She might be smart when it comes to electronics and mechanics, but she knows nothing of fixing people. Either way, she takes mental notes on the subjects that their instructor is covering.<br> <br>As Anna talks on Cyrr quietly gets up and grabs two pieces of bread and cheese. Nibbling at one shi walks over to Bran, eyeballing his posture, and offers him the food. &quot;You alright? You did hit that wall pretty hard.&quot; When Anna reaches the part about tails the vixen winces and hir tails all curl about each other.<br> <br>Bran watches Cyrr approach and shrugs a Cyrr, a gesture that brang himself some discomfort. &quot;I&#39;m fine, don&#39;t worry about me.&quot; Anna looks over to Cyrr and Bran, giving hir a look of concern behind Bran&#39;s back and continues. &quot;Next, always asume wires are live and always test. Yes, it takes time. But if you like having fur and a heartbeat, you&#39;d check things first and never assume you are safe. Chances are, you aren&#39;t You&#39;re dealing with infrastructure that powers a whole city....&quot; She mutters, &quot;...when it isn&#39;t eaten by nanites...&quot; Then continues, &quot;So before we get into all the fun stuff, you need to be aware of your tail, aware of your feet and hands and wings and whatever appendages you have.&quot; She lets off a surprised look to the others. &quot;Wings! If you are going to be giving my lessons to others, WINGS. Don&#39;t use them! You aren&#39;t ace fliers! It takes only one stray gust of wind and you&#39;re a cooked turkey! Once the electrical currents get to your wings, they&#39;re GONE, you aren&#39;t going to be able to control them long enough to catch the earth with your feet, it&#39;ll be your FACE. Climb those towers and make good use of your safety harness and gear while you work!&quot;<br> <br>Jaqui continues to nod her head as she listens in, discovering new aspects of electrical work that she&#39;s never considered before, and it&#39;s almost enough to her her short tail wagging. She gives Anna all her attention, rather absorbed in the lesson she&#39;s learning today.<br> <br>Cyrr gives a disbelieving glance at the divot the tiger had left in the wall then pokes him in the shoulder. &quot;Get checked out after the lecture at least.&quot; Before taking a seat once more. &quot;Tusks, whiskers, horns... Wouldn&#39;t want to be a moose trying to fix some lines.&quot; Cyrr ticks off other appendages in idle thought. &quot;Actually that does make me wonder whether it would be better to bury lines or hang them as normal given the nanites.&quot;<br> <br>Bran winces again and snarls at Cyrr, but calms himself down and sighs. &quot;I&#39;m no-&quot; Anna looks over and chides in. &quot;You big baby, we&#39;ll find you a doctor later.&quot; Bran furrows his brows at Anna, who just shrugs it off and looks to Cyrr and Jaqui. &quot;You can bury the lines, sure. Would help keep nanite degradation down untill the wires need to come back up. Sometimes they&#39;re still hung between buildings though. Ferals are good for some labor, but even they don&#39;t want to dig trenches all over the place.&quot; Bran sighs and looks around. Eventually he swallows his pride and asks someone. &quot;Is there a doctor around here?&quot;<br> <br>Jaqui laughs a little from Anna&#39;s mention of ferals digging trenches, shaking her head. &quot;You won&#39;t have to worry about that, we have our workforce pretty figured out.&quot; she says, then looks to Bran after, raising a brow. &quot;Well we don&#39;t have our clinic yet, but Sakura could look at you if you want to stay here a while. We&#39;d have to find her.&quot; she explains, giving a shrug too. &quot;Or you could stop being a big baby and get looked at back in New Dawn.&quot;<br> <br>&quot;I&#39;ll dig you all the trenches you need if you supply me the builder nanites to fuel it.&quot; Cyrr grins. &quot;That said we probably don&#39;t have any shortage of hands for manual labor like that. Just depends on how well we can teach em to dig...&quot; As Bran finally relents the vixen has to take a bit to consider. &quot;If you want a traditional style of doctor... Sakura perhaps. Otherwise depends on how milky you want to get.&quot;<br> <br>Bran sighs. &quot;I&#39;m not leaving Anna. I have a job to do. I&#39;ll wait unill the nanites kick in.&quot; Then when he hears about Sakura and milky he pauses. &quot;...Milky?&quot; Anna oon the otherhand grins a little at Cyrr&#39;s suggestion. &quot;Yea, why don&#39;t you get a little milky, Mr. Meow?&quot; Bran just looks at Anna with a dead serious look on his face. Anna turns her attention back to the fox and the hyena. &quot;If that&#39;s what you want to do, go for it! I think grumpy needs a rest though, how about we continue this later? Classes at Noon while we get everyone to speed sound good?&quot;<br> <br>Jaqui can&#39;t help but laugh some more from the interaction between the other three, a paw landing firmly on her table. But she&#39;s not especially strong, so the table is barely jolted. &quot;Some people heal with their milk, Bran. You&#39;d feel better faster.&quot; she tries to both tempt and tease him at the same time, giving some more chuckles, but ultimately she nods to Anna. &quot;Sure, that sounds good, I&#39;ll be back later then.&quot; she agrees, standing up and waving to the others as she heads back to her workshop for now.<br> <br>Cyrr can&#39;t help but steeple hir fingers in glee as shi watches the two go back and forth. &quot;Fine by me. I&#39;ll leave the food out for you two.&quot; Cyrr shuffles a few of hir papers around. &quot;It&#39;s fascinating getting into the concepts behind the things that I&#39;ve assembled wholey from nanite blueprints... I suppose that is what makes it a challenge.&quot; Thanking the duo the vixen heads back up to hir room. Probably to disassemble something to see the principles in action.<br> <br>Anna gathers some stray documents together and gets her pouch put back together. Sorting thought her pack she produces a a couple of books, one for math the other for engineering. &quot;Take these and study up on them I&#39;ll be going over these materials eventually and testing you on them. Those are also there for you to keep. We&#39;ll be in town untill the course is done. After that, you should have the knowledge you need to keep things running! Assuming of course that you even GET a generator. We&#39;re going to train you so hard, it&#39;ll be YOUR fault your stuff catches fire!&quot; Bran just slaps his face at Anna&#39;s statement. &quot;What Anna means is that we&#39;re going to train you all she knows. Not... actually set things on fire. That would be bad.&quot; With that Anna takes her pack and walks out to find somewhere in Glenstock to hunker down for the night. Bran meanwhile stays behind for a moment to look at the pack he left, his back still aching. He looks to Jaqui and asks, &quot;Mind if we keep this here? I can&#39;t carry it.&quot;
