(( You don't need to quote him. Just come up with your own suitably cryptic comments.))
~~Gary~~ Gary rubbed at his forehead. Talking with Vorlons seemed to get you nothing but headaches. "Look, I'm annoyed, I'm getting a headache, and you're not helping," he said. "You may be an ambassador, but I don't do politics. Now please tell me about that bird, or I bloody well will kill it. Right now, I don't know anything about it, so it gets classed as a security risk."

I haven't actually quoted him yet, except that long, drawn out yes...)) ~Kosh~ Kosh was getting irritated by the continuing ignorance. He pushed some more random lights and said, "Aaaaaaaaand".

((Oh, OK.))
~~Gary~~ Note to self: Intimidation and threats don't work on Vorlons.But then, what else am I supposed to use with them? Nothing works. "Ambassador, you have 20 seconds to start telling me what I want to know. If you haven't started talking by then, I will kill that bloody bird."

Once again, Kosh hit random lights and said, "Do not kill."

~~Gary~~ "Oh, so you don't want the bird dead? Then tell me about it, please!" ~Kosh~ "Wings... and flame," Kosh replied, knowing he would irritate the human by repeating what he had already said.

~~Gary~~ Gary left, annoyed. He hadn't gotten anything after talking to Kosk... except a vague possibility that he shouldn't be touching its wings. "Stevens to Matthews," he said into his commlink. "How do you propose we catch that thing?"

~Adam~
Adam heard Gary over the link. He tapped and responded. "Well I can think of three things. First, I've got a cage. We can try to lure it in. Second, once it's spotted, if we can get a narrow laser-beam on it, we can take one of its wings out and it won't fly well. Third, we can begin to heat the air. Hot air generally causes avains to attempt to fly up, so it'll either crash and be noticed, or it'll get spotted trying to fly above Green Sector. Meet me at Green One for a better discussion. Matthews out."

~~Gary~~ Gary got into a lift tube. "Green 1." When he got out, Dr. Matthews was waiting for him. "I already have Green Sector sealed," he told the doctor. "And I talked to Kosh. All I got from him was 'Wings, Fire' and 'Do Not Kill'. No point talking to Vorlons, in my opinion."

~Adam~
"That was a big help. So, here's the cage," Adam said and showed him a cage about half-a-meter on a side. "What's your recommendation?"

~~Gary~~ Gary looked at him. "You're asking me? I vote kill the darned thing and let be that, but the Vorlon says don't kill it and you want to study it," he said, then raised his hands. "I'm out-voted here."

(Sorry for the long wait, but this is October.)
~Adam~
Adam glared at him. "Fine. We'll fire up the air. Make sure everyone knows to stay down low. Begin to warm enviromental condidtions in green sector. You'll have to do all that from Security. Allow people to leave, but have people watching the exit point for the bird. If they see it, they're to call me at once and stay with it.

~~Gary~~ "People? Apart from Kosh, we're the only two in this sector right now. And I can't turn up enviromental control from Security." Gary activated his commlink. "Stevens to C&C," he said. "C&C here." "Turn up the heating for Green Sector, please." "What hare-brained scheme have you come up with that requires that?" "Nice to see you have so much confidence in me," said Gary with false cheer. "It's Doc's orders." There was a pause, and then, "Heating's up." "Thank you. Stevens out." "Now what?" he asked the doctor.

When it does, we can force it to crash itself or fly into the cage."

~~Gary~~ "Post? Again, as I said we're the only two in the sector barring Kosh. And I can't spare any more of security, because I belive it consists of two other people."

"Security... never there when you need it... always there when you don't." Then Adam changed to a normal voice. "Let's pick the two highest points, one of us at each, and tell the internal sensors to alert you for ceiling impacts. If that's possible."

~~Gary~~ Something just occured to Gary, and he nearly slapped himself for forgetting. "The station is a cylinder. The entire outside edge is the highest point."

I can do absolutely nothing until the problem mentioned is fixed as the info that was there is restored.) ~Adam~ "Then the highest point it can get to without leaving Green Sector. Or should we just watch the entire outside edge?"
