113th Temporal Tuesday - 30 August

mrrustymonkey: * a monkey doll slugs down the stairs, in a #TemporalTues fog. he pours himself a cup of coffee & heads to the conservatory *

mrrustymonkey: * his #TemporalTues employees are gathered around the table, waiting for the morning meeting to start *

mrrustymonkey: * he hears lots of #TemporalTues chatter, mostly about things of no importance. the word "like" is used way too much. *

mrrustymonkey: * he grimaces & closes his eyes as he takes a seat. this is his seat on the #TemporalTues time machine.

mrrustymonkey: Today on this #TemporalTues, you kissed me tenderly on the cheek. It's late afternoon, the middle of last week.

mrrustymonkey: When I close my eyes #TemporalTues, I see just me & you. :-) And when I open them again... it's 1992!

mrrustymonkey: We're in a happy place #TemporalTues, where the world's shut away. Nothing bothers us at all on this most perfect day!

mrrustymonkey: We have the wind in our hair #TemporalTues & the sand between our toes! Our plans for this day... nobody knows.

mrrustymonkey: Maybe we'll go sailing #TemporalTues or just sit here & stare? We're just happy to breathe... this relaxed kind of air.

mrrustymonkey: Later we'll get cocktails #TemporalTues at a weird Tiki bar. We'll dance to steel drum music under the stars.

mrrustymonkey: Do you remember this place #TemporalTues? It's where we do all of our art. It's our place of escape - our place of new starts.

mrrustymonkey: Hand me that shell #TemporalTues. I'll put it up to my ear. It'll whisper to me everything I want to hear.

mrrustymonkey: Now hand me that napkin #TemporalTues & let's map out a plan. Let's put it in a bottle & see where it lands.

mrrustymonkey: * notices a familiar lighthouse, with a beacon of #TemporalTues light - so bright it can been seen through the thickest fog *

mrrustymonkey Mr. Rusty Monkey
#TemporalTues, daddy says again to mommy, "Take my hand & we'll run! A world of possibilities awaits."

mrrustymonkey: Oh #TemporalTues time machine, lets walk on the ocean again & sing... Walk on the Ocean

mrrustymonkey: * he opens his #TemporalTues eyes. the fog has lifted. it's nothing but fair winds & following seas now!

mrrustymonkey Mr. Rusty Monkey
* :-) as he heads back up the #TemporalTues staircase, to his room in the very old house *

@CassieBarrister: @wildfeather he knows all the gossip, who comes and goes. Maybe he knows if they took a horse or something.*leads way 2 stable* #tt100

@wildfeather: @CassieBarrister *Blinks at you. somewhat at a loss for words* O.o #tt100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic I smile politely, but can't resist the draw of curiosity. My vow to remain invisible is fading fast. *takes Duke's arm* #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords The duke escorts you over to the side table replete with silverware "Your hair looks particularly lovely- #Tt100

@MassTwitFic: @Mousewords "...this morning." he says politely as you walk. Plush carpeting beneath soft indoor shoes #Tt100

@mousewords I feel a blush climb into my cheeks, try to hide it with a pat of my hair. "Thank you.." #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords The duke smiles and considerately deflects attention away. He reaches behind the larger teapots and decanters #tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "This," he says, "if I have perceived my lady's preference aright, is just your cup of tea." #tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "Or rather, coffee." he adds, pouring a delicious thick stream of fragrant black liquid into a china cup #tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords He presents it with delicate flare "It's from my own estate in Brazil," hot steam rises, wending its way up to your nose #tt100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic My curious interest flickers into a smile, & I laugh; then accept the cup with fascination. "You have an estate there?" #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords he smiles. "That's why I came back from Huatanay Valley via Porto Velho and Belem on the Amazon" #tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "It was a difficult trek, especially with a game leg," the duke admits."But it was worth it."his smile changes to private #tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords amusement, recalling something he does not say. But then his eyes trail back to your face and he adds candidly; #tt100

@MassTwitFic: @Mousewords "But it was better than being tossed about in a ship,seasick & delirious,all the way across the Pacific,&round the Cape!" #Tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "Well, almost better." and that secret smile comes back again. #Tt100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic I take a sip of the hot, dark ambrosia, savoring its smoky-earth flavor; nothing like Starbucks in the 21st century #TT100

@mousewords: @massTwitFic (in a good way). I can't help watching the Duke's face; his eyes with their changing expressions & quiet humor.. #TT100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic his air of mystery is a tempting puzzle. I take a stinging swallow of coffee to shove me back on course. "It sounds- #TT100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic "as if your journey was..not uneventful?" #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords his eyes lit up with hidden fire, he places his fingers across his lips. Pensively he begins "Yes, it..." #Tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords and then stops. #Tt100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic "It..what?" I ask, in a low, confidential tone--against my sense of decorum, but darn it I'm curious. #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @Mousewords "There was..." His eyes drop and flash about the room "Some difficulties. Did you detect the notes of caramel, and" #Tt100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "red berries?" He goes on, "there's even a hint of chocolate. In fact," he slides another pot over "I find," #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "it goes very well together." He urges you to take another sip. "Is that dangerously revolutionary?" #Tt100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic "It might seem so to some," I say with a grin. "But I have to agree with you." Especially since #TT100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic -chocolate & coffee practically fuel my days back home.."But. You were saying..difficulties?" #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @Mousewords "Don't worry," he says, "I shall keep our deviant ways to myself." and his eyes light up with dancing merriment #Tt100

@MassTwitFic: @Mousewords then he exhales with bashful discomfort at your pressing "I.. was taken captive by a highwayman.." #TT100

@MassTwitFic: @mousewords "highway, woman, in fact." He glances at you amused, yet sheepish. "I almost got shot" #Tt100

@mousewords: @MassTwitFic "Oh my!"--I don't have to feign ladylike vapours; my hand darts to my lips automatically. #TT100

@ZAmmi: @mousewords ::hastens up to u and rudely interrupts.:: please pardon the intrusion, but, *hisses* we have a *mouthes* slight problem #Tt100

@mousewords: @ZAmmi I blink; glance from you to the Duke to you- & "problem" wins out. "Ohhum. Excuse me a moment plz." #TT100 @masstwitfic

@MassTwitFic: @ZAmmi the duke makes no objection to your interruption, but politely defers with a formal smile #tt100

@ZAmmi: @mousewords Wild's disappeared, and it seems she's not the problem. Rusty said something about FP #TT100

109th Temporal Tuesday - 2 August

mrrustymonkey: * a #TemporalTues car pulls up to a building with a "For Lease" sign in the window. a monkey doll hops out to inspect this empty space *

mrrustymonkey: * he walks around from room to #TemporalTues room, imagining where everything & everyone could be placed *

*mrrustymonkey: there's a metal chair sitting in the #TemporalTues corner, next to an empty water cooler that some previous occupant left behind *

mrrustymonkey: * this is his seat on the #TemporalTues time machine *

mrrustymonkey: Today on this #TemporalTues, magazine publishing...it must to be our fate? :-) It's 1998.

mrrustymonkey: It's an old title #TemporalTues. We'll revive it again. We'll make it our own. We'll spin it & win!

mrrustymonkey: ...for this new phase of our lives #TemporalTues! Retirement just didn't last. You see, my friend, we get bored pretty fast. ;-0

mrrustymonkey: We need a sales team for our masthead! We'll need an honest CFO. Oh & by the way #TemporalTues...before I go...

mrrustymonkey: ...lets hang onto this feeling #TemporalTues - our wide eyed start off anew. Sadly, it won't last long. Now here's the 1st clue...

mrrustymonkey: ...It will be a public company #TemporalTues, with investors & stock. The "dot.con" age is dawning. Prepare for the shock.

mrrustymonkey: The world is changing #TemporalTues. Tangible is tossed out for air. Every little tech geek kid becomes a MILLIONAIRE.

mrrustymonkey: But for now #TemporalTues, everything still makes good sense. So let's time travel back out, before it starts getting tense.

mrrustymonkey: Oh #TemporalTues time machine, it's time to join the world again, & sing... Walking On the Sun

pinkbunnyr: @mrrustymonkey I love #TemporalTues. But I love Mr. Rusty Monkey more!
