If she wants they can have lunch here at Mr. Greydawn's. We have a nice picnic area gets plenty of sun and a nice flowing stream that encircles it.

I can send on of Mr. Greydawn's planes to pick Miss Solstice up thorne can find his own flight though.

This is all up to Miss Solstice though.

Thank you, but no thank you, Soph. If I meet him, I’d like to do so on my own terms.

I'd rather you met him on my terms, IE, at his funeral.

I understand, the offer still stands should you change your mind.

I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm just afraid of losing you again. So I overreact in my typical way.

I am also guilty of wanting to insure your safety Eilonwy. Thou I will point out severl people here are only offering help, and suggestions, thou a few have already decided they would rather Thorne dead before finding out exactly what is on his mind. It would do nobody any harm to merely hear what he has to say I think. Thou as everyone here has already said make sure you control the meeting.

And that’s what I’m afraid of, Shadow: people rushing to conclusions that may or may not be correct. I don’t mind people offering suggestions, but when someone decides to murder another human being on account of my “safety,” that’s going too far.

Cameron doesn’t know me and he doesn’t know what I’ve gone through. Of course he’d be suspicious. Wouldn’t you? Do you believe I still owe something to those that were wronged by Celeste, Mr. Thorne? That’s fair enough; you are entitled to your opinion. Your thoughts of me have no bearing on how I feel about myself.

. . .

Still, they need to be informed decisions. Wait until we know more about Thorne. Until then, you can expect us to be overprotective. So stop trying to be tough, and let us help you.

Very true, Konrad. So . . . how do you propose we get to know Cameron if we’re not even willing to meet face to face?

I’m not trying to be tough . . . I’m trying to be independent.

I have only threatened harm to him if he harms you Miss Solstice, sorry it is my nature to try and protect those I care for and you happen to fall into that category along with several others here. It is also why I get upset when we drag each other down or are hateful to each other.

Other than that I have only suggested safe meeting locations to meet.

Thank you, Sophoroto . . . thank you everybody. It’s good to know I have friends I can count on, and that means a lot to me; I’m sorry if I ever come across as headstrong or too prideful to listen to anybody. You mean well, and I know it; I appreciate everything you do for me . . . I really do.

No problem that's what are friends for.

I thank you GhostSpider, for the memorial to my father (a new discovery during my research). I have taken the liberty of burning several million yen in "hell money" to make sure that he may reat in peace. How much did the memorial cost you? Such an expese should be born by the family if possible, rather than by an outsider, I will however put your name on the memorial to denote that you were the person responsible for it's erection.


Thank yopu again for your actions on th epat of my ancestors, you have incurred a debt thet those not of my culture cannot understand.

Well Miss Nakamura, I will reffer to my previous post.

I was fianaly able after many, many years of searching, able to find the man who gave me to the project who raised me.

His name was "Shang Li".

Now If you don't mind I have a great many things to think about, research be damned, this matter comes first....

My apologies, Mr. Turtle; the statement is no less valid for my current distraction causing me to give the credit in the wrong place.

The small memorial I erected commemorates his death and sacrifice. It is, the least I can do for such a great man and I can not in good conscience allow anyone else to take up the cost of it, it was something I wanted, needed, to do.

If you wish we may discuss details in Private.

For my part, Ei, I was only warning him... He was sounding unhinged, and sounded like he was threatening you. I'm in no position to threaten him...but with everything that happened to Sheldon--from the initial reactions he got from everyone right up to his untimely death...

This guy seems like trouble, and even if he's not, he needs to be aware that this group is overprotective to a flaw, and if he continues down the path he's set upon, he could end up hurt or worse.

He hurts anyone, and its definetely going to be "or worse".

That having been said, I think a meeting should not be out of the question. Just one that is on our terms.

Fixed it for you Mr. GhostSpider, it is her meeting there fore Miss Solstice's terms. Unfortunately if she doesn't want anyone else there then it is her choice as she has said she is an adult. Not that I agree with her going alone to the meeting I do not think it is wise for her to be alone with him he still gives me the creeps.

Mr. Thorne, may I suggest to avoid confrontation, that you simply agree to meet Miss Solstice in a public setting with Mr. Caliburn. If you need to talk privately to her I am sure he would not object to stepping out of ear shot.

Just a suggestion take it for what you will.

Taking offense to that comment about Burying people eh? Well can't particularly blame you Ghost.
Thorne so far I have not directly threatened you, I had offered help with site security for a meeting between you and Eilonwy. I also was willing to listen to what ever you had to say, and not decide you were an outright threat to be removed.
But if you don't stow the threats, and act half way reasonable. Much less actually try to do harm to someone else here.... Well you will be the one being buried.
Now as hopefully we all have the posturing out of our system, can you and Eilonwy get down to setting up a meeting? Eilonwy Is this reasonable to you? As ever I still advise you keep control over the situation. You certainly have enough people willing to help in any way they can, that means me and my people as well.
Oh Thorne? If I may ask who or what is this Gilgrim?

Cameron Thorne wrote:Gilgrim is here, in this place, and I don't find Miss Solstice first, she may not live long enough to enjoy the rest of her redemption.

I don't know who or what Gilgrim is, but this definitely doesn't sound like a threat to me.

Care to expound on this, Mr. Thorne?
