Piper had dedicated countless (two) hours of precious time relentlessly (kindly) drilling (flirting) with the potential (already voted in) Merry, Mischief Making Clan candidate Corla— Cortha—, Cor Whatshisname.

At the summation of the interrogation (tea party- there was also a lively discussion on torrid romance novels) Cor's initiation rites had been set into motion. As Secretary of the Merry, Mischief Making Clan, Piper submitted her report on a piece of parchment smeared with streaks of clay:

Sunday, sometime after noon- Cor accepted. Initiation rites are in progress. P.S. Based on the titles of the tomes Cor purchased, it is mine opinion that Cor is kinky. Possible candidate for Merry, Mischief Making Clan centerfold or extensive therapy.

I'd like to file a formal complaint about my title. As a founding member, I think it's unfair that I'm still the biotch.

On another note, I cannot help but notice that, with the exception of the Benevolent Dictator's beloved fiance and Connar (and Marc Franco, an honorary member)....dammit, that just leaves Darren, Cor, and me at the bottom of the clan totem pole. Never mind.

Eless finished transorming one of the two guest rooms at the end of her suite into the MMMM Headquarters. In the center of the room, the Captain placed a school desk— with lots of storage under the hinged lid. On it she placed a GIANORMUS fluffy quill pen and a golden journal. The stationary shop had run out of ink, so she got violet instead. There was also a fully stocked mini bar, complete with a warmer and a fry pan for tea/coffee making and omelette making.

In the middle of the desk, the Captain of the MMMM left a memo scribbled in blue crayon:

Misfit Piper,

Here is thy desk, quill and jar of ink. The stationary store hath run out of indigo ink, so thou wilt need to use this pretty violet instead. If thou art brave enough to select a personal assistant from this mutinuous lot, then thou hast my persmission to do so. Please forward any additional complaints to the proper party, because I am very busy cleaning out my closets.

I have edited the Membership List, established our Headquarters and designed our MMMM ID cards. I believe my work is done for the week at least — if not for a month. ;) I'm off to check on those ID cards.

P.S. Please tell any Misfits that drop by to decorate the headquarters as they wish. I am considering changing "Merry" to "Mutinuous". :P

Dear Supreme Ruler of the MMMM,

It has come to my attention that the stress that comes from leading the Merry and Mutinous Misfits has put you in the position of requiring some personal attention from your Personal Assistant. You are to report to the bedroom tonight at 11 for brandy and some very personal attention while I very personally guard your body and apply the appropriate attention.

I have reviewed your request for a ledger and colored pens. I believe they are valid requests for thy position. I left word with the stationary shop to provide thee with a suitable ledger and colored pens. Thou wilt need to pick them up thyself as I am still trying to clean out my closets before my Personal Assistant arrives for our appointment and has a stroke.

Please get in touch with our Fundraiser because thy mutinuous lot of misfits are quickly emptying our treasury.

I would not wish to seem untoward or ungrateful for the extreme honor that has been shown to me, but might it not be possible that in order to better serve our esteemed membership the best possible "tea experience" I might be allowed a set of fine cups and a kettle?

Also, if you could see it in your heart to find a way to provide me with some index cards so that I might be able to better catalog our meager (yet growing!) series of written works, I would be most appreciative!

Thank you for all your hard work and undoubted agreement in this matter!

P.S. The book wasn't for me!!!

Being ever so helpful and a generous sort, upon hearing that Cor had been named Misfit of the Library, or a Librarian, Or...something of the sort, she rushed right to the Teas'n Tomes to speak to that sweet little freckled lass and the Deaf-grump to purchase with her very own coins (since the treasure chest was empty!!!) some of the books Cor had been known to purchase since the establishment opened. In the Little room that the misfits were to gather for contemplation, she stacked the books on a bright yellow shelf where all could browse at their leisure.

A little note was tacked to the end of the shelf in <le sigh> Violet, NOT indigo Ink...

"These are Cor Whathisname's favorite books. You should check with him before borrowing."

The Benevolent Dictator entered MMMM Headquarters with a happy smile gracing her lips as she sees how much progress is being made. The bright yellow bookshelf immediately caught her attention and she dissolved into merry laughter at the titles of the books Piper had purchased. "Very well done, Misfit Piper," Eless managed to squeeze out between gasps for air. "I need to go purchase some gold stars for the Misfits who demonstrate proper Misfit Conduct. Thou shalt receive one for such a terrific selection of books for Misfit Cor to catalog." Finally regaining her composure, she added, "Cor gets one for well....sucking up. Storm gets one for giving me that nifty Captain's hat and Rena gets one as well for getting her supplies for free!"

As promised, Storm breezed into the MMMM headquarters with her pack to add 'decorations'. It was purely by accident that she had come across her finding, but she found it perfect for her new clan.

Pulling out of her pack was a small wooden sculpture of an animal. Parchment in hand, she borrowed Piper's fluffy quill pen and dipped into the violet, not indigo, ink.

To: The MMMM Clan From: Clan Advisor, Sr. Clan Instructor on How to Appear Innocent, and cleverly named 'Ace in the Hole'

It has come to my attention that as a Clan, we need a crest or type of symbol. I have self-appointed myself to regulate suggestions and/or preparing the crest. My first suggest is...the Platypus.

Please either describe or bring other suggestions to this corner of the table.

Thank you.

Snickering, she set the wooden sculpture of a platypus on top of the parchment much like a paperweight. Not yet letting go of the feather, her eyes travels with curiosity to Cor's 'favorite' books, but after reading just one spine, she did not continue in her search.

Pulling out another piece of parchment, she stole more violet ink to write again.

To: Clan Captain Eless or Fellow Misfit Piper (as I have been instructed to give memos to you) From: Clan Advisor, etc etc Ace etc etc.

After a brief but enlightening conversation with Clan Captain Elessaria, it has been brought to my attention that I should have a personal assistant. I request one Ewan Corinsson to be fulfill the role of my personal assistant, and to be a fellow clan or honorary member.

A glance at the bulletin board provoked a laugh. The Merry Misfits were definitely keeping the Benevolent Dictator busy, he saw to his absolute delight. Whether life would improve for the peons remained to be seen. Reading over Storm's missives, he chuckled at her request for a personal assistant — poor Ewan. He also wholeheartedly agreed with the Platypus suggestion, scrawling "I agree - Perry" on the paper. Not that Eless would care about his opinion, since the B.D. would make all of the decisions anyways.

He chortled when he saw the books that had been left. Spying the note that some cheeky soul had posted, Peredhil made a mental note to ask Cor for additional reading recommendations.

Knowing that Eless would be thrilled to receive yet another request, Peredhil grabbed a blank sheet of paper and began writing. To: B.D. Eless From: Your Favorite Misfit, Peredhil

Since I'm in charge of pointy things and I don't want any Misfit injuries, especially since you'd probably be liable, could I have an area set aside to store all sharp objects? Preferably an entire room' Thank you, O Captain, My Captain.

With a broad smile, Peredhil posted his request on the bulletin board. He could already envision the bachelor's pad the men were going to set up in the "pointy objects room".

The Benevolent Dictator huffed as she saw the ever growing stack of memos on the Clan Secretary's desk. "Spend a few days cleaning out one's closets and look at the work that piles up! I definitely need more TLC time with my Personal Assistant." At that, the elf picked up Misfit Ace's memo and chuckled merrily. The Platypus definitely suited the decor for MMMM Headquarters! However, she had already designed the Clan Crest which would be revealed once the ID Cards were completed. The Platypus would make a grand Clan Mascot!

The Clan Captain was very, very pleased with Misfit Storm's ideas and enthusiasm. At the top of the memo Eless affixed two gold stars!

To: Misfit Ace From: Captain Misfit Eless

I whole-heartedly agree with thy selection for thy Personal Assistant; therefore, Ewan shall be a member of the MMMM Clan effective immediately. I am certain he shall be very successful at his duties for I have already witnessed his care in preparing tea and drinks for thee.

The Platypus is very adorable, but the crest hath been designed already. However, methinks he should make a very proper and fitting Clan Mascot. Please feel free solicit votes from other members regarding this matter as our Secretary is busy being a slacker and tending to her pottery.

The Misfit Captain was beginning to get a bit grumpy. She would much rather be spending her time at Koy's shop and discussing wedding gowns, instead of pouring over endless MMMM paperwork. "Just where is that Slacker Secretary Anyway' I need instruction on How to Pass the Buck!"

Blah....blah...."Liable"!"!" That caught her attention! "Captain, My Captain?" She noted the improvement in Misfit Perry's sucking up and stopped grumbling. She immediately grabbed her blue pen and replied accordingly.

To: Misfit Perry, Instructor and Keeper of Pointy Objects From: Captain Misfit Eless

Since thou hast demonstrated proper improvement in thy demeanor, I shall grant thy request for a special room to hold such "pointy objects". Please see Misfit Rena for the funds to acquire an adjoining room to our HQ. In the meantime, if thou canst find that Slacker Secretary, have her do the proper paperwork to obtain one from Panther.

I cannot give thee my remaining guest room as it looks like I may need to transform it into yet another closet.

Said Slacker had a headache! And who could ponder the why's of the reasons" She'd spent the morning slapping together a proper misfit tea set for the Librarian from the remains of incredibly bad taste others had forced her to create then didn't bother to collect. She was more than happy to shove the horrors off on someone else.

Making her way into the 2 by 4 of a room to settle the tea set upon a shelf, she glanced about the claustrophobic space.

Shifting about, knocking into everything not nailed down, her eyes fell on the stack of correspondence collecting on her desk. A desk she had to share, no less! "Bother.?

After a moment of contemplative thought, she grabbed up the stack, ripped it to shreds and shoved it out the window. If you could call a slit of an opening a window! Nonetheless, it was all shoved out to drift on the wind.

Pleased with the progress of the day, she turned and headed out the door. http://i204.photobucket.com/albums/bb143/PiperTippet/badteapot.jpg

Despite her ill feelings, Storm made time to visit the MMMM Headquarters. The small room was enough to bring a smile to her lips and bring a more healthy color to her cheeks. She looked over the most recent news, chuckling as Ewan had become her personal assistant. She had a feeling that the news was going to be very ineffective. Peredhil had better thank her later.

Her eyes moved to Piper's desk, blinking as several stacks of paper were no were to be seen. The thought of Piper had the color in her cheeks go vacant and her lips pulled slightly at the corners. She did not know what had happened to her friend, and she was in no condition to be of more help. Perhaps she could fulfill her role as advisor and speak to Eless, or better, Peredhil.

Sighing softly, she could not find anything to write. No clever words or memos that made her smile. Instead, she reached into her pocket, and pulled out a jar of indigo ink.

With nothing more to be done, she turned and walked back out of the room.

It was through sheer force of will that the pixie was able to *pop!* appear in the MMMM Headquarters. Zipping around and looking at everything she could find, the bulletin board covered in noted quickly caught her attention Find a very small bit of paper and something she use to write with, Trinala jotted down the following note in vey small handwriting:

To: Captain Lady Eless From: Trinala Warrior Princess of the Silver Blade, Bell Slayer Extraordinaire and Little Devil

Hi! I was here but no one else was....You said I could join, right' I'm going to be under the pointy guy' And get the lady and guy together" Cause they won't admit they like each other"

Flying up she stuck the note to the board and *pop!* was gone.

Breezing in between shows during Fashion Week, Eless pauses at the bulleting board in MMMM HQ. "Oh, goodness! No suggestions for a lawyer, hmm' We shall have to figure out something." Her gaze then catches a teeny scrap of paper covered with even teensier writing done in red ink. With a merry laugh at the cheeky little pixie, she responded with a memo of her own:

To: Misfit Trinala, Assistant to the Keeper of Pointy Objects & Our Mighty Bell Slayer From: Captain Misfit Eless

Welcome to the MMMM Clan! Thy devotion to mischief and bravery in the face of villainous (and annoying bells) made thee a worthy member of our Clan. Our membership ID cards will hopefully be finished within the next couple of weeks, although I am nay certain how thou shalt carry thine.

One of thy first tasks is to ensure Misfit Slacker and Misfit Rena do attend one of the many shows that are taking place this week— especially Koy's. Then we shall find thee not just one, but several proper outfits for a mighty mini warrior such as thyself.

Piper

Hours had passed. And still she sat there at the small desk within the MMMM room, caught up in the reflection of herself in the windowpanes. Her hands, though usually stained with clay and ash bone, were now covered in cuts and scratches. Some were deep, most superficial. But her fingers were wrapped about the little pot of indigo ink, a faint smile on her lips.

Forcing her eyes from the trance like stare into the darkness beyond the window, she finally rose from the seat and stretched her cramped legs and stiff shoulders.

Spinning about, she eyed the bulletin board for any notices or orders from the Queen Despot of Enlightenment.

Taking up the elaborately feathered quill, she dipped the point into the jar then scratched out a note" "Might I suggest Shy as a barrister" She is quick to delve out her opinions and does not take matters lightly. "

Another memo attached beneath that one, "Thank you for the Ink. Isn't this nicer than violet?"

She set the jar of ink and the quill back to the desk then gathered the cloak to be flung about her shoulders.

Disheveled attire, hair pinned atop her head with a riot of dust and specks of shattered pottery, eyes wild and darker than usual, she would certainly make a sight at any fashion show!

Slipping back out as quietly as she had arrived, she headed straight back to the cottage to continue her work.

Peredhil

Rena and Storm had pleasantly informed him that he now had a new assistant — some four-inch Warrior Princess. Wondering why Eless would assign him an assistant when he had not requested one, he had a sneaking suspicion that the Benevolent Dictator was pulling a fast one on him.

He strolled into the headquarters and over to the bulletin board. Spotting a tiny slip of paper, he leaned in to read it, a grimace forming as he skimmed the lines. So the Little Devil was not only his assistant, but also a spy and matchmaker. He wondered how she was supposed to succeed where he had failed, but kept his thoughts to himself for the time being. Scowling at Eless' trickery, he stalked out.

TinyTrouble

*pop!* The little pixie was there again....eagerly scanning the board for a reply. Finding it she read through it quickly, a wide grin upon her little face. A task! Though, she wasn't sure who Misfit Slacker was. She knew who Rena was, so perhaps Rena would point out the Slacker and her Boss of Pointy Things out to her? Course, if she was going to be dragging Rena someplace she didn't want to go....well, who knew how willing she would be when faced with that. Her face taking on a look of concentration....she really needed to figure out how to get 'Big' at least for a while, it would certainly make it easier to drag people somewhere. Her little ears coloring at the way Eless' had signed it. She hoped she wasn't in trouble for that. A small salute given to Captain Eless' reply. Once again she *pop!* was gone.

Piper sneaked in to the inn and up the stairs sometime during the day and hung the banner over Eless' door. Where else was she supposed to put the dang thing?

In the meantime, if thou canst find that Slacker Secretary, have her do the proper paperwork to obtain one from Panther.



Said slacker, and renowned for passing the buck, marched upstairs and in to the heart of MMMM headquarters. Finding the original note that had not been shredded and tossed out with the others, she tacked it up on the board and slashed a note across the memo.

Done!

On a separate piece of parchment, she penned another note for the rest of the clan,

To: All you Misfits From: Me

Misfit Rena and myself are in agreement that we should force, er, invite Miss Eva to join our ranks, seeing as if them mens are going to be playing with sharp pointy objects, we shall be dearly in need of her services. Plus, if she is a member, we won't have to pay her, as she will be forever grateful to be amongst our numbers.

As Rena and Piper sat in the Inn, enjoying a mug of coffee in relative peace and quiet, they came upon a grand idea! Piper quickly scribbled up a note to be plastered upon the bulletin board for all to consider:

To: All ye Misfits From: Rena and I

We demand a float be made by the MMMM to be entered into the Grand Parade for Carnivale. Any and all suggestions for a design MUST be made by Wednesday at Midnight, 'cause we have nae much time left to build the darn thing.

A delivery boy, with a package from the stationary store, knocked on the door of MMMM HQ. Seeing the crazy sign, the tow-headed lad didn't wait for a response and left the box leaning against the door frame.

Upon opening the box, the MMMM membership ID cards previously ordered by their Captain, would be found— each with his/her own name.

An open letter to the Clan:

After a long absence from the realm I returned to find quite a few missives jammed into the box holding my correspondence at the inn. Most of the letters were for or about some newly formed group written under an MMMM insignia...or is it WWWW? From my reading of the first few letters of complaints to the Captain, I feared that the group was comprised mostly of Weird, Woefully Wacky Whiners. As the Clan Elder, I feel it probably falls upon me to tell ye kids to "shut up and sit down or I'll turn this chariot around!"

In defense of the WWWW-ers, after reading the latter-most letters, it does appear the the whining and complaining did subside a tad. Well done.

My your spirits ever be full of mischief and a twinkle be ever present in your eyes.

Upon spying the missive from the old dude, Piper was scoffing aloud and muttering under her breath about how eye candy should be seen and not heard! (Or read in this case) "Weird, Woefully Wacky Whiners, indeed! "

Sitting down at her desk, well"her desk shared with Storm, Rena, Eless, etc. etc, etc"'she quickly sketched out a picture of the female version of their Mascot?then pinned it up on the board over Connar's memo'

During the day a stash of women's clothing had been put into the closet of the misfit room. A small bag containing undergarments held a note written out to read, "Misfit Trinala's Clothes." Hopefully the note would keep others from snooping, but if not....it was an assortment of girlie garments in various shades and hues. The clothing that hung up consisted of a few pants, shirts, tops and sweaters. Left there for the purpose of clothing for Trinala to use if she wanted to grow 'Big.' Her current pixie-sized dressed not magic'ed to grow with her.

Eless managed to drag herself from the chore of redoing her suite where she had removed almost all her furniture, linens and window treatments— even her bed was dispatched and sent with the other items to various charities. Only treasured gifts and items to which she held an emotional attachment were kept.

The Misfit Captain perused MMMM HQ's with ambivalence. There was a stack of paperwork cluttering the shared desk. Notes and pictures tacked up on the walls. She was extremely tired already; her captivity within the veils having weakened the diminutive elf in a multitude of ways. She grabbed her color pen and went to work on editing the membership list before retiring to her private suite with a stack of GossipGangstars held in her tiny hand.

It was late...it seemed his passages through town were always late at night...the moon struggled to send its light to the quiet streets below. Connar ducked into the MMMM HQ and noted in an instant a familiar aura about the place, an aura that had long since been missing. The Captain's desk had been visited recently, and by the Captain herself, no doubt. He pulled a tiny bouquet of pressed spring flowers from inside his tunic and set them upon her desk.

On his way out the door, a note and drawing pinned to the bulletin board by Piper brought a smirk to lips, which was soon replaced by a broad smile as he bounded out the door and into the stillness of night once more.

Misfit what knows how to pass-the-buck Piper snuck into the Inn in the middle of the day (unheard of!) and raced up the stairs to tact the message upon the official bulletin board for all Mind-Boggling Munificent Misfit Mutterings and other really important stuff.

Go Fly a Kite!

It's National Kite Month (Yes, it really is!) So some of us more dedicated Merry Mischief Making Misfits gathered at Teas"N Tomes to discuss the events and have decided to host our own competition!

More details to follow, but basically"ya gotta build yer own really Fanciful, Fantastic, Fabulous Kite!! Then we're going to fly "em! In The Glen.

http://i204.photobucket.com/albums/bb143/PiperTippet/image003.jpg

(We shall set a date for this in the future. In the meantime, everyone (not just the Misfits) is invited to join in and post a picture of your very own Kite! Good Luck".and oh yeah, Go Fly a Kite!!)

Here's a picture of me and my kite.

http://i187.photobucket.com/albums/x174/Flyguyii/kite002.jpg

This happens to be taken in the same place that Piper's picture was taken. I'm the tall guy in the back on the left. These large Japanese kites are nearly 8 feet square and the "kite string" that you use is really 1/4" - 3/8" diameter rope (laying on the ground). On a windy day it takes several full-grown adults to keep it under control. We're all celebrating a successful flight - i.e. the kite is still in one piece. My wife is the shorter one in front.

Scribbled upon a clay smudged piece of parchment and tacked to the MMMM board beneath the Platypus picture was the following letter to the Captain:

To our most Enlightened Despot:

From Her who knows how to pass the Buck:

Last evenin" we were in the market square when there was a sudden shattering of glass and the whole Omeletes O"Plenty place was suddenly open for business! — Baker did it, not me! And Eva was with me, so she can back this up! Anyway, we were hungry and what with Misfit Cor's place right there and all, we decided to visit, cause that huge plate glass window was gone'somehow.

Anyhow- we need to induct Miss Eva into the fold so she doesn't go tellin" everyone about our secret handshake. Cor told her about that. It wasn't me! Plus she would be forever obliged to be counted amongst our numbers. Just like Cor, who is still totally beholden to us for letting him in and teaching him that secret handshake what no one knows about, on account of it being so hushed hushed and secret. Another boon, she knows how to slice potatoes up really nice like.

Sincerely, Your hard working (here she paused to try and recall exactly what her role was within the clan) person that makes pottery and such.

P.S. Now we need a secret handshake. P.S.S. Misfits get a 10 percent discount at Cor's place. P.S.S.S I made that up, but it sounds good, right"

While the Captain if the band of the 4M squad had vacated the rooms for a while, Rena had been having a couple of boxes sent to the the place the call a headquarters. Looking around the room, she declared to the walls that another location was needed is the membership keeps increasing the way it has been of late. Anyway, Rena went to work on the boxes and after flinging them across the room to get them out of the way, against one was a floor to ceiling wall unit-to hold the items they already had and to place the ever incoming stuff that found its way into the room.

((Crossposted from Hoodwinked, so that the Misfits can join in at leisure. I'm imagining there are several letters left at MMMM HQ for whoever wishes to participate.))

Elessaria squeezed her way past the boxes that were piled up around the tiny room that was the MMMM Headquarters. When she found her way to the desk they shared, she found a letter addressed to her. The petite elf swiped Rena's pen and used it to pry open the seal, a soft chuckle escaping as she read the note within.

"A mystery admirer, " she whispered to the Platypus. "After the Ball the other night, I wonder who it could be?" She made a mental note of the time and location, wondering what one wears to something like this.

The newest addition to the Merry, Mischief Making Misfits Clan crept into the Clan Headquarters, not on little cat's paws, but on stealthy size ten black riding booted feet. Hazel eyes sparkled with mischief behind gold wireframed glasses lenses as, one by one, palm sized brown paper sacks, each marked with a particular Misfit's name in fine calligraphic script and green ink, were withdrawn from a particular black wool trenchcoat pocket, and left on the Benevolent Dictator's desk, along with a note in the same fine handwriting on cream colored origami paper.

Dear Benevolent Dictator,

Clan Caffeine addict, eh' Well, then! Here are presents sure to bestow that particular glow on all the other Misfits. I hope they are enjoyed by you and the other Clan members, as much as I do.

Sincerely,

Lab Rat

The Good Doctor slipped away once again, having left behind in her wake a quarter pound of coffee beans, covered in seventy percent cacao chocolate, for each Misfit clan member from her personal stock.

Connar had stopped by the Misfit office while dropping off a gift for Storm and Ewan when he noticed a small bundle with his name on it from Maranya. He opened the small package and looked inside, instantly smelling a rich chocolate aroma along with something else rich and heavy. He pulled a few of the beans out, thinking these must be like the truffles Eless and Anya feast on and plopped them in his mouth.

Indeed, the first taste was chocolate, not quite as sweet as the morcel he had tasted from Eless, but sweet none the less. But as he continued to chew, the flavor turned quite heavy, bitter. He made an adolescent "ick" face and swallowed it down. The candy was nearly as bitter, if not more so, than the medicine Eva had him eat several night's past. The taste lingered on his tongue and teeth...awful...It was far too late or early in the year for this to be an April Fools gift...but, then again, the Doctor did have a different way about her since touching the moon.

He would ask her about it later, but for now, he placed the remaining portion of the bundle on Piper's desk...maybe she could benefit from an extra helping.

Piper didn't mess around with niceties or formalities. She simply posted the note As one of the founding members of this group of horribly misguided misfits, I am calling an emergency meeting of the founders. I know it is late notice, but I would like this to be held on the morrow at 12 bells by the central bell tower in the Teas n' Tomes.

If you cannot attend, I would suggest an absentee vote be allowed for those who have other pressing matters other than that which I deem important.

Sincerely, Piper

Connar held Piper's notice in his hand, reading over the missive now for the fifth time. He wasn't always the best at paying attention to the minor details of being a misfit, but he was at a complete loss as to how to respond, for he knew not when twelve bells might ring...other than at noon and again at midnight...nor did he have any idea of the matter for which he was to cast an absentee vote. So he guessed:

Dear Piper and fellow misfits,

I've no notion what pressing matter might require our gathering nor need our votes - since this has never been a democracy - tis surprising that a vote would be called for. I have always made my position quite clear, but for those who need reminding, I shall state it again below:

Eless looks fetching in any color, be it pink, blue, leopard print, what have ye...but I favor a particular pink number and a couple of blue dresses, though I be not picky.

If Eless' choice in evening wear is not the matter at had, I pray ye tell me what it is that needs rectifying.

Forever your servant and Elder at arms,

Connar



The note was fashioned next to Piper's on the Misfit bulletin board.

The Misfit Captain dragged herself from bed — it was rare that she was ever "sick" as in a human- type sick— and checked in at MMMM HQs. With a sigh of disappointment for having missed the meeting, she grabbed her bright blue pen and posted a note: Misfit Piper & Fellow Founding Misfits,

I apologize for missing the emergency meeting. Please fill me in as soon as thou art able to do so. Blame it on on impromptu drunken Misfit Sledding Adventure.

Thy Benevolent Dictator, ~Captain "Dress for Winter?" Eless

XXOOXX P.S. If Panther wants to know what happened to all the trays, we do nay know what happened.

Then she pinned up the note next to the other two before heading to nag the printers for the ID cards.

Maranya entered Misfit headquarters early on Christmas morning, not by the chimney, but by the front door. A mischief laden smile curved her lips as she removed her gifts for the membership one by one from the red sack that was slung over her shoulder.

She neatly arranged the red and white plush Christmas stockings, which bore both holly designs and the names of each Misfit in gold thread worked in intricate needlepoint stitches on the white cuff, on the Captain's desk. Then she left a note, written in green ink in her fine calligraphic handwriting on cream colored origami paper, with the gifts.

Merry Christmas!

I hope you will all enjoy these little gifts of the season.

Sincerely,

Lab Rat

The Good Doctor slipped away once again, having left behind in each stocking ornately made white chocolate snowmen and milk and dark chocolate Santas, purchased over the holiday season from Mira.

With a weary and wistful sigh, Eless finished her part of the paperwork regarding The Clan's Caffeine Addict's probation. The empath hated airing their "dirty laundry" in public in front of the other patrons in the Inn last night; however, Anya had every right to know the reasons behind her change in status. The difficult part done, she dashed off a quick memo to the Clan's Secretary.

To: Misfit Piper, Secretary and Head Slacker From: Captain Eless Re: Misfit Anya's Probationary Status

Please gather up thy notes from thy discussions concerning the above. We need a formal list of the incidents and reasons that led us to placing Anya on probation. Please write them up, then post them on our bulletin board when thou hast finished.

Thank thee,

~Misfit "The Original Benevolent Dictator" Eless

When she was done with the memo, Eless placed it on top of Piper's ever growing stack of "To Do's". She then grabbed one of the platypus statues and set it on top of the huge pile of paperwork, ensuring the papers didn't scatter anymore than they already had.

Connar moved through the MMMM headquarters. The room looked as though it had been unvisited it weeks or months. The captain's desk was strewn with letters, notes, and a pile of the local gossip papers.

He moved to the bulletin board, a smile turning his lips as he re-read older postings and notices. Finding a open space, he pinned a small piece of ancient parchment.

- - - - - - -

Dear friends,

I pray this message finds ye all well and safe. It has been far too long since we have enjoyed one another's company and mirth - something for which we will have to make amends.

I have seen a glimpse of what may lie ahead for me. My world and duties there oft extract a toll, one that I do not fear to pay, though the price it now extracts includes keeping me longer away from all of ye.

Please keep a watchful eye on our dear Captain. She is the guardian of my heart and to her will I always return. Ye hold a place therein as well.

May God watch over ye and kept ye safe and warm.

Always your servant,

Connar Valdor

Wandering, as she was apt to do, the MMMM headquarters would be one of many spots to choose for said loitering. Reading the top request among the many, she couldn't help but laugh, "That .....female is still a Misfit' Oh, let me count the ways..." first and foremost the sin of unoriginality when stealing an idea.

She paused a beat...Then scribbled out a note...."Disgracing my father, failure to help another misfit, acting in a unbecoming manner as befits a misfit...ultra bad taste, vulgar, insulting, rude, uncouth, socially unacceptable, liar, cheat, rude, Ohh, I already mentioned that.......Hmm...Let me consult my memory banks once more. I have been away so long."

With that she signed her name with a flourish and headed out.
