    Good morning fellow DT fans…

    So… is Moon Maid the real thing?

    “Closely related.” I like the sound of that. And Sail’s expecting Mysta to return? Not likely unless he’s got a way of bringing her back.I love this story!

    These are red herrings, this is not the original MM, the entire Moon “race” were interbred, she could be anybody

    Who is Sail talking to? We all thought he had hired Bardoll, now we find out that Bardoll was sent. Was Bardoll actually a body-guard, or something else entirely? Is Sail actually only a puppet himself? Who is pulling the strings? The mystery deepens.

    Bardoll II will soon be on the scene to spice up the action component. Meanwhile, the thinking component is all in a frenzy over the DNA data—which says what it says and not more. Why is S. Tim Sail still running around loose? Is he a pawn of The Apparatus? What will old man Wheaton do with the two ladies he is holding? (Yes, holding—whether they realize it or not.)

    Pequod77, one to ten, that’s a ten. And I agree the Apparatus has to behind things here.

    Honeymoon is the daughter of Moon Maid and Jr. Maybe the shared DNA is from Jr. – a wild thought, but what if this Mysta turns out to be related to Jr. in some way. After all, Jr. was adopted, and, other than Mary Steele, we don’t know anything about his family tree. Well, I guess there is a history of who his original father was, too.

    I want this story to go on forever. The best so far. I’d be happy with long stories like this rather than those shorter ones that weren’t interesting or satisfying. This is great, love all the twists and turns…hope it goes until at least September and ideally the end of the year.

    For maximum fun, Sail’s new “assistant” should be Mumbles, so that he and Ghote can have a reunion.

    “…who is who.” Both subjective, no objective, “writer.”

    Poor Bardoll, his life seems to have meant nothing to his associates… it’s a shame too, the idea of a hired thug with brains was such a nice refreshing type of character

    Mike’s science is really off – There is no way to tell the difference between cloned DNA and Original DNA.

    Very nice job on the DNA illustration, gentlemen! So many people get it wrong, but yours is perfect!

    Sam has his worries, Chief’s also concerned

    Sparkle is missing, Moon Maid has returned.

    Fritz Ann on the phone, lab results to convey

    Mysta and Honeymoon do share DNA.

    The samples were studied, tested and processed

    Outwardly calm, Tracy would not have guessed

    That Mysta may live, a Lunarian mystery

    Sui generis woman, they share a close history.

    In Honeymoon he sees fine traits of her mother

    Smart and courageous, unlike any other.

    Honeymoon’s caught twixt doubt and elation

    Afraid to believe, suppressing celebration.

    Junior’s stunned mug says it’s just sinking in

    His heart is a-pounding, his head starts to spin.

    All had assumed Mysta’s ending was tragic

    All knew so little of Lunarian magic.
