Christmas Video of the Day!
Ethan:
Ehlana has the news of the day; so I’ll
leave it to her to pass along all of the exciting details!
Ethan – out!

Ehlana:
We did it!
We have a cure for the common cold!
I’m probably not going to be able to sleep
for a while, but I’ll save all of those really boring, scientific details for
that project archive; and just take a minute to write about the fun highlights
from our lab adventures.
When Ethan and I got to the lab, he headed
straight for the archives while I went up to my lab, and since Uncle Adam and
Dillon had everything ready for our tests; we got right to work. I’ve mentioned that we were getting close to
the cure, but close isn’t there; so you can imagine the excitement when our
tests were a total success straight through to the end when the virus was
killed instead of the late-stage virus survival and test fail. That’s why we stayed late and kept the fun
going. Mom came over to help us with
some time phasing – and brought dinner; Ethan joined in on that part of the
fun; and we took our tests to vapor and lozenges stages thanks to some Magi
powered work; and succeeded in those tests too.
I won’t mention any names for the test subjects,
but don’t freak out about that, since we took the needed precautions; and had
four Magi Healers available had the ‘live’ tests been a fail. They weren’t, and while we have more work to
do, and it’ll take a decade or two before we could possibly be ready to build
up the supplies that would be needed to offer our cure to billions of people;
all that matters for me tonight is that we have succeeded.
Even with the time phasing, we worked late;
and then Mom sent us to bed after a long bedtime chat with Dad. He’d visited and had dinner with us, but went
home to get his own work done; and wrapped that up when we came up to bed –
though he and Mom are still downstairs and winding down with some cuddle time
in the living room while watching a Christmas show. I’ve had a mirror chat with Cassie – after
she got home from last class to pass along the good news; Ethan and I had a
bonus twins’ bedtime chat; and I’m going to do some work now while trying to
wind down from the excitement. That
might take most of the night, but self-healing in the morning is an option if
necessary; and I could probably just keep running for another day or two on the
adrenaline anyway. ;^)
You don’t need me to drone on about my play
time at the lab, though, and you have the important news; so I’ll wrap this up
and move on.
This is Ehlana Proctor; coming to you live
from what is now my past!
