Sorry for the exceptionally long wait, really sorry! X (thanks for reminding me Special Agent Ali, lol )
The Curse
Now usually I don't mind having a bit of alone time but it felt like forever before Gothy came skipping back into the lab to pick me up after I guess a few days. She didn't forget about me or anything, I guess she just didn't see me at first. She must have been low on that thing she drinks using a straw.
Anyway, I was just glad that I was finally back on my shelf. Home is home, it doesn't matter where that is exactly. But yet again I'm off track, it's probably because my back hurts from being on the floor for a while… Gothy left the lab quite quickly once I was back in place, she was mumbling at a disturbingly fast rate, something about King tut and mummy's curse, now I'm not someone to usually listen in to everything everyone says but I have no idea why someone who tut's so much should become King, or why a mummy would curse!
Language today is shocking!
So while Gothy is away I've decided to practice my movement skills, I think I just about managed to move a foot but I can't really tell as I haven't worked out how to move my head yet.
Problems always happening in circles!
Gothy doesn't seem to be in the lab at all as much today. I see her running into the lab and then running back out just as fast, but she seems to be in high spirit. She's smiling and jumping up and down every so often letting out a little squeak now and then, so I assume she's happy.
Although she does mention something about no dints in the pod…I have nooooo idea what a pod is, but I guess they must usually have dints in them?
Gothy is doing cartwheels around the lab, she talking to us all as she turns her music up, telling us that it's the husband. Apparently husbands do it a lot, but supposedly not as much as women, but they are smarter. Well, that's what Gothy said because the women don't get caught as much.
So as I'm pretty much left in the lab with few distractions I go back to practicing my movements. I definitely managed to move a leg, now I just need to move the other…
...Fell off the shelf again, guess I should practice moving backwards so I don't fall head first, but I did manage a couple of spins whilst I fell. Does that mean I get 10 points? Okay, back to moving, I have it pretty much figured out, if I think I want to move left then my back right leg moves…
Gothy seems to be mumbling something about a Nib Lick? She went to see the Quack and now she keeps repeating it, over and over, Nib Lick, Nib Lick, Nib Lick… On and on, I think she's gone insane. I'm just keeping an eye out for the drool, apparently it's a good sign of insaneness, or that you're a baby.
Voices are saying that it's not the husband, I can't quite make out who is saying it but it's not him. Well, it's not the present husband who is married to the wife of the past husband whose dead and used to work with the present husband… makes a lot of sense.
I watch as Gothy is actually working in the Lab. I see her frown as she uses a blue mechanical stick that shines a bright blue light out from one end. I think she has found something but before I can even think about letting out a little toot the Boss Man walks in and Gothy tells him that she should have played Beethoven, the Boss Man looks playfully confused for a second before replying 'you mean it's not?'
He really is a joker that man, he likes to make fun of people using confused expressions or the 'you think!' he does so much, but I see the twitch of a smile.
Gothy is also good at reading the Boss Man though so they share a little laugh together, even I smile.
Boss Man then asks about the oil stain, but apparently Gothy isn't too sure what it is but remarks that its only on one side of the shirt, I think that might be important as Boss Man then mentions that it's on the same side that the Quack found the hairline fractures.
I don't really understand as I thought your hairline was on your head, but the jacket was worn on your body? Gothy seems not to notice this though and pretends to be hurt that the Boss Man went to the Quack before her.
The Boss Man seems to take a sour note with Gothy then, I think he really just wants the ever dense now, as he asks her if there's some sort of priority he doesn't know about… Gothy smiles though and like you'd expect out of a daughter or young person just replies that a girl likes to be thought of first.
I watch as the Boss Man seems to relax and smile, then they both walk into the other section of the lab, which I'm glad about as it gives me a better view to watch.
They're again looking at one of those mechanicals that displays really pretty colours, this time it has bright red on it… I've never seen a red like it before. Gothy comments to Boss Man that she isn't sure if it's synthetic or natural but it's definitely a fibre. She then asks what is orange in the navy.
I watch as Boss Man's eyes move up to the sky, I can tell he's thinking quite hard but all he comes out with are 'life jackets'. So I'm guessing that if someone takes one of these jackets off then they end up with the Quack on one of those tables. But then Gothy asks really randomly if the mummy's shoes were found in the hold with the life jackets.
I don't know why shoes would be hugging life jackets, maybe they think like me too… they want company. Maybe.
I get distracted at this point thinking about these new things I've learnt but then I get distracted again by the coloured bottles in Gothy's lab, all their different shapes and colours, lined up on the shelf. I like the green one best; it looks like a blob and keeps my gaze for longer than most.
When I look back Gothy and the Boss Man have moved, he tells her something about lowering the fresh hold by given her a name and serial number to match up with, that's when I notice lots of squiggles are on one of the mechanicals in a circular sort of shape, some sort of print.
I think the Boss Man wants Gothy to match them up to someone, but I already know who did it. Mr Squiggles must have done it; he's the only blue person I know that has a similar pattern. I don't think he'll be too hard to miss; he usually spends time with all the other Mr Men.
Gothy makes a funny 'O' noise and in a sarcastic manner says that 'that might help' so the Boss Man leaves, but not before shooting me a confused gaze, I think he knows I've moved.
I watch sleepily as Gothy is on her smaller mechanical searching for the squiggle print match up. Boss Man comes in and hands her coffee in a plain white force field but she doesn't take it straight away, instead says something about it probably matching up with her right middle finger at a guess, I think she's talking about the squiggle prints, she still hasn't figured out its Mr Squiggle.
Then she says thank you to the Boss Man and takes the drink. She moves into the main mechanical part of the lab and says she's matched the fibre with an orange canvas that doesn't match up with the life jackets.
Boss Man then says something about it being the mail bag and dashes out. When he leaves, Gothy says 'orange mail bag cool!'
I think somehow, the case has been solved, it went way over my head, I was sure it was Mr Squiggles!
Okay there's the next one... it feels like it's been years since the last, but hope this makes up for it X
