Ib & Ob: IOP Paradox Part 5



Ob (over the TCL): Have you still got the artifact?

Ib: Of course, one of my other selves has it. I sent myself to back of the crowd whilst they search for the RSK. Can you please turn down the telepathic communications link, someone is bound to pick it up.

Six vibrations follow another six vibrations then another...

Ob: Remember do not attract attention to yourself.

Ib: I will not have too if you do not turn the link knob into the middle. Besides I think there is something odd about the three driving the mob.

Ob: What do you mean?

Ib: Just set the link to receive only and I will tweak the signal at this end.

T1: Who are you talking to?

Ib: No one.  Perhaps can I ask why are you here?

T1: I'm here to point this gun at you, now shut up.

Ib: I think you misunderstood, I meant why here?

T1: Well if you must know we are looking for a stone statue.

Ib: In a room full of stone carvings.

T1: I saw you as soon as we came in, you were here already, have you got the statue?

Ib: Err what does the statue look like?

T1: It is a stone carving of the three aliens.

Ib: Which sector?

T1: What did you say?

Ib: Well everyone knows you get different aliens from different parts of the galaxy. So I hear on the conspiracy theory...

T1: For a moment there I thought perhaps that you knew more than you are letting on.

Ib: Basically you here to steal from the Muse of Urns?

T1: What did you call this place, its a museum.  We are not stealing merely requiring lost property.

Ib: Have you ever wondered what your life is?

T1: What, no! Well okay a little bit yes.  Why am I even talking to you about this.

Lady: Err excuse me my older gentleman friend here wants to go to toilet.

T1: And?

Lady: The toilets are in the foyer.

Ib: Perhaps I can be of help, why do not you ask your friend over their pointing that metal tube I mean gun and take the sub err Lady and her friend back to the foyer.

T1: I suppose so, its weird having a special place for...

Ib & Ob: IOP Paradox Part 1



Ib: No reason, what is that flashing light on the console?

Ob: What light, Oh that light it has been flashing since we came into orbit.  I assumed it was broken.

Ib: Why would you assume that?

Ob: Because it is the artifact light, you know the one that comes with every ship sold.

Ib: The one that is meant to flash in the presence of an immensely powerful artifact, that one?

Ob: Yes, I mean it is a complete Space Purple Panug!

Ib: Language! Besides I happen to know it is all true, which means this trip is not a waste of rotations.

Ob: Really!  How do you know it is true?

Ib: Because of IGal!

Ob: But IGal is a...

Ib: Come on you can say it, you are after all a Rebel! IGal is a what?

Ob: Female!

Ib: There you go how hard was that! How did you think I passed my exams? She was a huge source of data.

Ob: But she not even of our race...

Ib: Not much of a Rebel are you, cannot see even past your own orbs.

Ob: Fine. Well according to the location matrix the artifact is in a Muse of Ums.

Ib: Are you reading that right, what is Ums? Here let me look.  Thought so, that says Muse of Urns.

Ob: Really and what it that exactly?

Ib: Well according to the communication probes a building that contains objects older than the present.

Ob: Perhaps it has been lost in translation, although I suppose it is a good place for an artifact to be. According to the scanner the building is filled with bipeds, you will have to go in disguise.

Ib: Really let me guess your suggesting I wear a Chameleon suit?

Ob: Well I cannot wear it, you know how it affects me.

Ib: Okay, however where did get this suit from?

Ob: One of the Science Club members lent it to me.

Ib: Lent or gave?

Ob: We just need to turn off the default setting to C'raf 4, that was the last place it was used.

Ib: What! C'raf 4 only have two beings on it and there is no proof that either are intelligent.  Which one was it set to the Sand or 9Waver?

Ob: I do wish you would not call them by their shorten names!

Ib: Really you me want to spending sixty rotations saying two names?
