Finally the boilers are fully fired and at full pressure. My estimate was several hours off, likely due to the fact that we are burning the coal that we got from Anna. It is cheap, Indian subbituminous coal that has a lot of clay and slate mixed in. Fortunately there is less than a day's worth left on board. We disconnect the umbillicals and I blow the steam whistle. We then put out to sea.
I summon Anima. "How did the mission in France go?"

Leon smiles. "That works out just as well." He says, entertained by Violet's mannerisms.
"Do you know of any gardens in the area?"

"We were able to evacuate the members of La Resistance, but I ran into some stiff resistance from the bloodspeakers and had to withdraw."

I am more impressed than I expected to be. "I do like these here." I say, pointing to a few realistic representations of landscapes at sunset and twilight. "I'm sorry but I don't like the portraits or the abstracts. But we all have our preferences."

"I will take you to the botanical gardens! I love it there. So..you like flowers then?"
Trotsky is so old fashioned but it is endearing. I teleport him to the botanical gardens and we begin to walk through the green houses.

((How did you throw them past a wall?))
I get knocked back and glare at him, I wasnt complete with the orbs, I grin slightly. "oh, im sorry. But you see, these orbs are more atuned to this universe then I. I control if they explode or not if I still have contact with them" I slam the orbs together and they form one normal sized orb. I toss it up alittle and then let it hit off of my wrist as it comes back down. I grin as i look at him. "you see, normally they wont do much at all....". I toss it up again as I spin around, hitting the orb with my tail towards him. I run my hand over my tail, making lighning around my hand.
I thrust my arm towards him and the lightning goes out towards him after the orb

"d**n bloodspeakers. Oh well, at least the Resistance is safe." I am studying the recipt I got from Anna when I bought the coal from her. "They charged me $57 per ton for this junk, it isn't even worth $10! Bunch of bleeding-heart oppertunists by God!"

I chuckle slightly.
"Unfortunately, such is one of the side-effects of Capitalist. It is a shame that their hold on the market is fairly absolute."

"I'm glad that you like them."
Xavier smiles.
"Some people tell me I look similar to Bassarov, do you see a resemblance?" He asks. He sits on his bed and looks up at her with his bright blue eyes.

((Thought it was an illusion))
"He does the attack even thought he knows i am going to counter!" I said laughing. "Fool!" I yelled.

"Does it look like I care?" I said. I threw naohter pari of dice hitting the orb same time the lightning hit. A explosion knocking my and Mamori back a little ways. once again my Razor ROulette appears and swiftly coems down after Mamori.[/i]

"Oh it's just that they charged us five times extra for bum coal that cuts fifteen knots off our top speed. They could have at least washed the clay off it!" I growl. "Enough about my fuel supply problems. We have made progress in the reindustrialization. If I can push this trade deal on Red Infinity we can start building factories as soon as next month."

"That is the important part. Until then, we must endure and put up with the materials we have."

"Yes you do resemble him. If you dressed the same it'd be hard to tell you apart at a glance." However it is easy for one to distinguish her best friends or lover... For anyone else it would be more confusing.

"Yeah, I thought you would say that. Heh, oh well. I want to be my own person. Maybe that is why I am here in France. If I moved to Helsinki and had to be around him I might lose myself."
