Fancy Reloaded

While the electron network was generally excited about the wands of mostly Seventy-Nines, it was something that I recognized as a special occurrence but was a regular affair, at least over the longer term. The excitement over the rarity of the event would drop by more than half with each repeat of a Seventy-Nine wand event. I was somewhat jolted by the realization that the electron network was as excitable as it is.

The wand event lasted for quite some time, far longer than a normal wand event. Many more patterns were produced by the molecular detectors, some of which were similar to those of the past, but a few were new and unique to this particular event. Some of the parallel conversation recalled an incident that occurred before a past wand event. As I probed the stored copy of the past event, I noted the remnants of a transcription session that linked back to the incident itself.

Propulsion soon occurred after the wands had been relinquished. I noticed that the bubble blinked as the branch points were put through a retrieve and stow sequence, and remained in a barely energized state. There was some conversation occurring via the compression-relaxation channel, and the perceptible patterns of another person was detected against the quiet background. Their propulsion commands were partly discernible, and punctuated the inputs that I was briefly following.
