"Thanks!" Daniel says to MLB, putting on the baseball cap. "Please forgive any awkward silences or odd behaviour. I'm on some very strong painkillers right now. I had to promise the doctors that I wouldn't drive or operate heavy machinery for a while."
Daniel then grosses out MLB by showing him the gigantic bruise on his hip.

Ice is enjoying a nice hot chocolate at the coffee shop when he hears Daniel behind him making a machine gun noise and playing with his crutches. Ice dives under a table and produces an AK-47 which he pops back up with, spraying a short burst into the ceiling before he realizes Daniel doesn't really have a gun.
"You are so paying to fix that!" Daniel tells Captain Ice, while trying to snatch his cap back from Soda.
* While stocking a new shipment of books that were found in an old trunk up in a locked cupola at Arkham University, RJD is drawn across the street to the coffee shop by the smell of Hot Chocolate. When he gets halfway there, he hears a burst of machine gun fire from inside and decides to go back to his books. *
Daniel finally has his new cap back, but Soda has run off with the crutches, stranding him on his seat. Soda is using them to pole-vault over the counter.
"I hope Tora Ziyal will drop for coffee on her way to collect her liger cub." Daniel says, hoping to try out his new Kal-Toh set.
"So, MLB - I hear you spent Valentine's night at Hippy Lady's place. Give us all the juicy details!"

^"Well, would you rather we just interrogate him?" Ice asks Jenee
*Ice orders another hot chocolate and one to go. He takes both hot chocolates and walks over to the bookstore.*
I wonder if my copies of Metallurgy 101 and the Complete Guide to Urban Warfare have come in?

Hippy Lady apologises for the interruption to her posts. She was stuck in bed with the mother of all sinus and ear infections, but the antibiotics are kicking in nicely, and she'll resume posting shortly. Meanwhile, she's still looking for her veganity, but it appears to have been lost forever. (Kudos, Daniel!)
MLB does not kiss and tell...
And O-Dog will rip to shreds anyone who tries to interrogate. O is very protective of his owner.

Ziyal finally arrives in Trekbbsville and looks around in amazement. It feels like years -- or just a few days ago -- since she was last here. She's looking forward to seeing some of her old friends and neighbors, but before seeking them out, she heads directly to the Crazy Cat Lady's house. As she approaches the front door, a huge cat comes running from around back, stops abruptly in front of her and rubs against her enthusiastically, yet w/o knocking her over.
"Leo!! Gooood kitty!"
"Meoooooooow."
"Where's this kitten of yours I'm supposed to meet?"
Leo tilts his head towards the side of the house he'd come around, and Ziyal sees a mini-Leo peeking around the corner. Not quite a mini-Leo, though. The kitten is mostly sandy like his sire, but has lots of bold white stripes (or is it sandy stripes on white?). "Kitten" and "mini" are relative terms, of course. He looks like he's at least a hundred pounds already!
Ziyal and Dodger look at each other a moment, and he approaches calmly. Rubs against her a bit and starts to purr.
"So, little one, do we have the same connection Leo and I do?"
"Meow!"
Ziyal stretches out her arms, and Dodger gently jumps into them and resumes purring. Ziyal sighs w/ contentment. This is definitely the right kitty.
"So how do you feel about dogs?"
"Meow?"
"Dogs. Could you stand sharing a home w/ a Klingon Shepherd Dog?"
"Meow"
"You sure you're going to be nice to him?
"Meow" Louder purr.
Unfortunately, the Crazy Cat Lady doesn't appear to be home, so Ziyal heads out to look for her, Dodger walking beside her and Leo following, perhaps a bit protectively. Ziyal wonders where she's going to find the CCL and her other friends...

Spotting Tora Ziyal outside with Dodger and Leo (who's been keeping his super intellegence and telepathy very hush-hush since the timeline was reset), Daniel sends Soda out to intercept and bring them to the coffee shop's impromptu Misc Street get-together.
Thank you, Daniel! I left Trekbbsville before the timeline stuff started happening, and I have to admit I never saw any evidence that Leo could communicate telepathically w/ anyone other than me. It doesn't seem to be typical telepathy, but a specific connection between me and him, and now me and his son. Would be interesting to see if it worked w/ the other kittens, but unfortunately I have to leave for Vulcan shortly.
Ziyal tells Dodger to wait on the sidewalk, and squeezes herself into the crowded coffee shop. Wow, almost everyone in Trekbbsville is here! She goes around the room distributing hugs and asking about children, kids (the 4-legged variety), cats and the few absent humans. Glances out the door occasionally to make sure the kitties are still there. As a matter of fact, they are sitting on either side of the door, looking like a pair of statues.
Ziyal thanks the Crazy Cat Lady profusely for allowing her to adopt Dodger. Promises to send photos and updates on how he is doing.
Outside, Ziyal spends a few moments scratching the ears of the purring Leo. Then she and Dodger head down the street. It's been a long day, and they have a very long journey ahead. But Ziyal knows that, at the other end, her lover and Worf, the Klingon Shepherd Dog, are waiting for them.

* As Ice walks into the Bookstore, RJD pulls out a couple of large tabletop books from under the counter, one with with a cover showing a 3D rendering of a molybdenum-cobalt alloy molecule and the other a plain olive drab. *
"Hey, is that Hot Chocolate for me?"
"Hey, is that Hot Chocolate for me?"
"You bet it is. Hey, you wouldn't happen to have a book or two on Vulcan or Betazoid telepathy blocking would you? Seems I've been overhearing someone's actual conversation in my head the last couple days. And when is my copy of How to Prepare Cajuns do in?
That's a tough one. The last known existing copy is said to be kept in the shotgun shack of an almost-legendary cannibal deep in the bayou. According to folklore, he is protected by a band of dedicated cultist followers. My operative is heading in there now to retrieve it. Ever see Southern Comfort? It might take a couple of days.
Daniel bids Ziyal (and Dodger) farewell, wishing she could have stayed a little longer.
The Misc Street rumor mill tells Daniel that Hippy Lady's feeling under the weather, so he sends Soda over with a nice hot chocolate and "get well soon!" note. Daniel then turns to Jenee and whispers, "I hear MLB gave Hippy Lady an infection!"
