Does anyone know where Jeff Andonuts has gone to? I haven't seen him in a few days... And his room is remarkably spotless, not a scrap of material or misplaced tool to be found. At first I put it up to his brand new roommate's fantastic cleaning skills, but it only took me a day to realize something wasn't right, me being his best friend and all

You're kidding me...

He couldn't have gone, I just came back, too!

I'll keep an eye out for him.

[ohjeffums]

Thank you.

[pedaltothemetal]

He, um.

His dad needed him for something.

[ohjeffums]

Oh, is that all? He never told me a word... That Jeff! Running off without telling me nowadays... He should have at least left a note or a message- something for me to read so I didn't have to bite my nails off fretting about his whereabouts. I worry about him all the time and I'm sure I make that obvious enough!

But... thank you, Mr. Falcon. It... makes sense that he'd tell you before me

[pedaltothemetal]

Yeah. I don't know. It sounded like Dr. Andonuts was going to keep him tied up for a while.

[ohjeffums]

I see... Well, I hope he enjoys his stay.

[things_go_boom]

Check your e-mails, he left me one. It just got buried really fast with all this spam mail we keep getting...

Something about a conference with his dad?

I'm not worried. At least not anymore.

...HE'D BETTER NOT RETURN AS A KID AGAIN.

[ohjeffums]

What's this? I will check that right away.

Oh yes, Mr. Falcon told me up there that he had some business with his dad... I don't think I'm so worried any more either. Attending a conference with his dad is too important to skip out on. If he returns as a kid, then I suspect something has gone horribly wrong with the time-space continuum! At least, as far as Jeff's history goes. Admittedly, it was my first assumption, too... Wouldn't it be just ghastly if the cycle never ended?

[things_go_boom]

I would rather not think about it. Having Jeff come back as a kid again would be just...dumb.

[ohjeffums]

Good call. I don't know what I'd do with myself.

[solarock]

Who is Jeff?

[ohjeffums]

He's my best friend! We've known each other almost our whole lives. It appears as though he's run along on a trip to visit his dad, though... His dad is a very famous scientist who I'm sure you've heard of at least once... Dr. Andonuts? They share the same last name, so...

[solarock]

No, I haven't heard of him. Sorry.

You're worried about him, I presume.

[ohjeffums]

Oh, well... That's quite alright! Not everyone has heard of him, I suppose.

I always worry about him. I care about him an awful lot, you see.

[oso_tigre]

Did he take off without saying anything again?

[ohjeffums]

Yes.
