[Given the fact everyone in his household were already drones, he didn't notice a shift in their behavior. Although the children's enthusiasm for his efforts to completely deck his house out in preparation for Halloween was nothing short of a disappointment. But when he went out today to buy some more fake cobwebs to decorate his yard

Insane kind of week, but I guess it ended up fine.

I'm interested in going to see what's up with the saucer. When are you planning on going?

[undying_heroism]

Right now actually. I've got a bag of investigative tools on hand.

You want to meet there?

[surf_n_makai]

Yeah, I'll see you there in a few, brah.

[Kono heads out to meet him.]

[undying_heroism]

[waves to her when she arrives]

Pretty sweet this is just laying here now.

You think those alien dudes would ever come back?

[surf_n_makai]

[Shrugs.]

I don't know. It seems like a lot of trouble to show up for a week and then just disappear.

You ready to go in?

[undying_heroism]

Yeah!

[dootdoooot, enters and peers around with a flashlight on]

Huh. . .

It's empty!

[surf_n_makai]

Wait, what?

[Kono comes up behind him and looks. It is indeed empty.]

So... they show up for a week and cause a lot of craziness, and then leave nothing?

[undying_heroism]

Kind of anti-climatic, huh?

[surf_n_makai]

Yeah... especially after this week. Well, so much for investigating anything.

[undying_heroism]

Well, not necessarily.

I mean, the hull of the ship could still be made of alien material. The one my friend Tony has can retain its shape no matter what you do to it!

[knocks his fist against the inside of the ship]

But if it's regular metal, we could always use this material for something useful.

[surf_n_makai]

If we could find something to cut it, yeah. [Kono also knocks on it.] Better than it sitting useless, right?

[undying_heroism]

Exactly!

[thinks for a moment]

I could get a chainsaw from the hardware store.

[surf_n_makai]

Yeah. What would you make with the metal, though?

[undying_heroism]

Lots of things!

[grins] It's like shop class all over again. [not to mention bringing him back to the days of rationing! Oh, there were so many good uses for metal!]

I hope no one has called dibs to this already.

[surf_n_makai]

Well, I guess you don't have to take the whole thing. Just what you need, right?

[undying_heroism]

True, but with unlimited possibilities, it'd be very easy to go through the whole thing.

Mmn.

Though I'll need to find a place to melt this down. You know of any places?
