Bruce greets the Lady

Bruce had been seeing the woman before him hundreads of times in his dreams, both during the night and the day. Along with Ivy, she had been haunting him with a hungry passion he didn't know existed within him.He didn't know why, but he wanted both of them even when one was obviously more put together then the other. He had welcomed her with a "Pamela, I'm glad you made it. We have so much to talk about.".

I was already working on developing alternative energies like solar and wind, working on environmentally friendly coolants and other chemicals, genetically modifying plants to provide more efficient and quicker harvests, and much more.

A woman of your skills and talents could help with many of the projects to help both humanity and Mother Nature. To move back to the Observatory where we met, plants would be a very important. They are often the first colonizes in nature, which if man expands beyond our one island in the cosmos would be the first step. Perhaps one day we could turn Mars from the 'red' planet to a 'green' one."

He had been working on the project since he had met Pamela while he had also worked the Freeze case, hoping to impress her like a teenager to his crush. Hoping to please, as she sipped her wine looking at him intensely.Once finished, she smiled as she answered...
