“Stay still for a few minutes.“ Rilovek smiled looking at Becci “We’ll link you to one of the test pads and you’ll feel a slight energy surge which will make your body tingle.“ She looked at Becci’s gems. “Keep YOUR bio weapon under control! It will probably want to react, thinking you might be under threat!”
The pad was connected and sure enough, Becci’s body began to glow. Rilovek had stepped back away from Becci. A ring of white light formed around her? Her arms and legs? They were fixed, almost seized. She squealed. “Becci!“ Some of the other Kets were now looking in their direction? But if they had concerns it would be short lived. Becci’s body felt the flush of Nemnia, a fluid released which gives a heightened sense of feeling very good, a minor sense of pleasure.
Much to Riloveks relief, the glow across Becci’s gems died back and the ring around her, vanished! Rilovek was remembering stories about reactive bio weapons. “You can get dressed remember ONLY the special lightweight suit, until you are placed into the Reclu. The suit will be left next to it. When you exit, get dressed and use the cleanser units to remove the skin.
Becci, will have a mild chem included in the gas, that will be released to subdue some of the neura nemnodes. You won’t feel so heightened to any threat, as some of your team will. It won’t, affect how you play the game. Not the recorded results from your body's responses.
“Now that you are sorted, you can give me a hand with Soniette!” More and more of them, were fitted with the body skins, though as said some were problematic. With Opheliad no one except a Priestess called from the temple, was allowed to apply her skin. Kets who had gone through the processes, rejoined the others. “It’s my tail!“ Claria grinned.
“They had to make some adjustments“ She giggled, as Anietta joined her followed by Soniette and Edram. Laughing at the mention of her tail, much to Claria’s embarrassment. “Luckily it’s not as big, as some of her race.“ Thank you Soniette for pointing that out." Poor Claria blushed again, in front of Edram. Prince Torvan came to her rescue, distracting them, as he now proudly showed off his bushy tail. “Its growing and growing.” It would appear almost like a Fox brush to us.
“Most of us Bexians don’t have much contact with others we keep to ourselves, so its usual to display our ears or our tails or our other bio morphing characteristics.“ He paused. “I can’t fully transform yet but when I do I’ll have a lot more fur.“ He now started to laugh. “They had to remove some of it, before the skin went on! It felt really weird and distinctly colder without it.” Soniette interrupted. “That’s because your nodes reacted with the fur now, they’re reacting differently, to compensate, for you not having it.
So you’ll start to feel warmer again as your body temperature goes up.“ “Won’t that affect my readings on the Ultra Realt?” “No because they program in a set of differentials, Algora settings unique to your species. Yours will be for your increased body temperature, probably plus 2, which seems to be standard. Certainly on us female Kets.“ Edram interrupted her. “Plus 3 on males, we seem to be a little higher on body temperature than you females.“ “There’s your answer!” Soniette smiled as Torvan nodded. Princess Eula arrived, she stepped towards Torvan.
Nothing unusual, most of the regular Kets knew the history behind her and Torvan. Inseperable? They might aswell have been glued together. He fussed over her, Soniette later remarked to Anietta. “They do like each other, I think it’s because of the risk Eula took, in saving his life. Might be difficult later if they have to work apart from each other.” “Who says they have to?” “Different cultures, different bodies even! Eula’s body readings, are different to Torvan’s in lots of ways, she’s colder skin wise.“ “I think with Torvan it goes a little more than just skin deep.“ “Oh how philosophical are we?” Anietta laughed. “I think his mother has forgiven Eula and quite likes her.“
“What’s not to like with her, she’s really nice I’ve never found her anything but friendly and helpful, despite her weird color.“ “No, what you mean is her different color! Color is relative. If I told you to close your eyes, hold our your hand and had a whole range of different colored Kets, touch your hands! Could you tell WHAT COLOUR they were?” Soniette smiled. “No! If I did it would be guessing. Which rather proves, your point. Nice example.” “Don’t lose good friends, simply because of their color.
"We were talking on differences.“ Her voice tailed off. “A Fendiq Ket, a Jogarth Ket AND almost inseparable?” “I gather Illia is behaving himself?“ “Anora is kept close to those watching her. He dares to try anything and I guarantee Becci will, if all fails, leave him with a very painful reminder on WHY he should keep his distance from her!“ “Can you imagine what she would do to him!"
