*she carries a box of artifacts, that are being donated from the University collection for the special exhibit. As per usual Professior Williams finds a way to duck out of the tedious stuff and lets his Research Assistant worry about the artifacts.*
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:31:51 PM)
*Sarah is dressed in black slacks, a slight violet and torqouiose color V neck top, some light Native American style jewelry on. Glasses*
Kele Nigig (Aug 13, 2010 9:33:20 PM)
*Kele had all three children with her, the two girls where identicle the boy was smaller then his sisters but only cause girls grew faster then boys. The mother was dressed in a cream colored skirt and a white shirt. The girls had on little skirts and the boy shirts. To hot to be wearing long sleeves*
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:37:52 PM)
*she speaks to one of the curators probably* I have a delivery for the Native American exhibit. You've been expecting a loan of artifacts from the University as well. Whom should I speak to about these? .........No I am not dropping it off, some of these are quite deliquette.
Kele Nigig (Aug 13, 2010 9:39:55 PM)
*The lil family was making there way through the picture gallery. Occasionaly a child might point and say something in some strange language that the mother would respond in kind to.. The mother would be motioning to things in the picture and speaking to the children in that strange obscure language..*
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:43:02 PM)
*she finially speaks to someone intelligent, .....they approach the exhibit, a few unique pottery vessels are added to a case as the children watch*
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:44:59 PM)
*Sarah looks rather professional and all, but unlike the probably white museum staff she stands out as at least prodiminantly Native American. Her dress is modern, save for a beaded medicine pouch, whose design bespeaks of Northwestern tribal.*
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:48:05 PM)
*eventually the museum staff leave Sarah be, the cases are locked...she stands and begins looking over the exhibit with interest8
Kele Nigig (Aug 13, 2010 9:49:44 PM)
*The children turn to gaze up at the potters and Kele turns to look on as well. Her eyes glance towards sarah and she offers her a polite nod of her head and a smile. The children look at the medcine bag sarah is carrying. And Maka moved her hands and tilted her head speaking in a very bardic trading way* ~Trade laungage~Trade you my pony for your pouch.. *Then mapiya huffed and replied to her sister in english* ya can not trade what I own half of! *The lil boy was chuckling and Kele was hushing them* shh this is a museum, use youre inside voices
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:52:01 PM)
((they offered to trade Sarah a pony?))
Kele Nigig (Aug 13, 2010 9:53:07 PM)
(Maka did but mapiya owns half the pony so she couldnt do it without her twin sisters half.. Which is what mapiya said. )
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:54:15 PM)
*Sarah makes deliberate signs, some of the signs might not be known precisely, hers is the Northern version of the trade sign, but most of it is probably comparable* - I not trade my spirit. Keep pony.
Kele Nigig (Aug 13, 2010 9:57:31 PM)
*Kele smiled brightly at her responce and asked in english* That is western north western perhaps?
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 9:58:05 PM)
Correct. I'm of the Suquamish Nation.
Kele Nigig (Aug 13, 2010 9:59:24 PM)
*she smiled brightly and held her hand out to the woman*We are of the Chitimacha nation.
Sarah Runningfox (Aug 13, 2010 10:03:27 PM)
Yes I was just studying the exhibit. I'm a Research Assistant, attache' of the Archeology Department, as well as a Doctorial Student. They are loaning a few artifacts from the Stedwell private collection for the exhibit.

I'm
I am Kele (sparrow) Nigig (otter) This is Dasan *motions to the lil boy* (chief) *then to the identicle looking girls one at a time as she introduced them*Maka (earth) and Mapiya (sky).. I am the Chitimacha Language & Cultural Instructor at the Chitimacha Tribal School..
*the children smiled and each said hello as there mother introduced them*
Pleased to meet you. *studies your purebreed* Your ties may go deeper than you know.
Well i Suppose that could be possidble, though there is not much a cultural instructior does not know. *she smiled brightly at sarah runningfox.* and it is a pleasure to meet you as well. This is a fabulous exhbit by the way. *she motioned to the potty.* can you tell us a bit about this potty youre university alowed to be displayed?
(Pottery)
(LOL)
((LOL)
They are basically in tact and found at an archeoligical sight K 19 *points to a map* when they are doing some preliminary backhoeing for a new Walmart. The entire area turned out to be a buriel ground and old village settlement. We were able to save about 60% of the sight.....and move the buriels properly with proper respect, before the lawyers screwed it up, and Walmart bullied there way past the "red tape". The pottery is about 300 years old and an excellent example of a grain storage jar. This fragment was from a grinding bowl.
((yeah she knows the "other" side of the fense LoL))
*She listened to her speak and a frown slipped over her lips at the information about wall mart. She couldnt belive they made them move the bodies they should have moved there stupid store..* like america needs another wallmart.
The Standford collection is from a private family but was fully donated to the Unversity upon the death of there leading member. I understand negioations are underway for the return of several ceremonial artifacts to your Nation. These loans, are something of a goodwill gesture on the part of the University.
Of course I was probably supposed to sugar coat that in white man double talk but I won't insult your intelligence.
*she beams a ragabash grin*
You have a distinct look, rare these days among the familys, are you perhaps related to the (says a bunch of tribes and nations, sort of lists them out causally, and at last she name drops Uktena among this list of other tribal names. she watches you carefully for reaction)
*She grinned at sarah when she said the sugar coat that in white man double talk.. and the children laughed at the joke as well. When sarah mentioned Uktena Kele noticed how sarah had so carefully hid it among all the other obscure names and gave her head a nod* There the southern version of the canadian wendigo tribe ive been told. (wendigo tribe is a actually canadian indian tribe though you likely know that so no biggy lol but shes just droppin younger brothers name to let you know she is in the loop)
*smiles* I know some of theres here abouts. One family, sad story. Do the children know the more distant heritage?
(asking of the kiddies know....shes at least being subtle...))
*She looked at sarah with a nod* they are not completely ignorant, but not completely in the know..
They are young. *smiles at them* And one wants to trade her pony. But this pouch was given to me by my father and holds a great spiritual meaning to me. I wouldn't trade it for an entire herd of ponies.
But....if she wants a beautiful pouch similiar to it I could probably get her one.
*Maka looked with brightb eyes at the purposal of getting a pouch like it*~maka~ i would like that very much please..
I don't understand your tongue. Mine is a Northern Nation.
(Ahh that came out wrong.. i meant *maka says*i would like that very much
Of course. Perhaps your brother too. The designs are different for men's usually. They usually are more the warrior spirits or the hunters.
*looks at Kele* I would like to meet you for coffee sometime. We have much to talk about.
*The boy smiled brightly and nodded his head but mapiya kind of looked up at sarah with hopeful eyes. Kele smiled* That would be wonderful, hmm I don't have any bussiness cards on me though..
*she gives you a card* Thats my professors, but you ask for Sarah and theres no problem. *writes a number on the back* But my cell phone number is probably easier anyway.
I'm free this evening if you care to join me. Otherwise we can set a date at your convenience.
*she takes the card once she was done writting on it* thank you very much. Well I do have my children with me right now. I can see if there father can watch them later this evening if that is okay?
*Unlike many, Sarah seems comfortable in the modern white world, but clearly has not forgotten who she is. She uses technology as good as any modern college student, computers, cellphones...but unlike Walkers is no slave to it*
If it suits you. *she nods*
*she noded her head.. She did not want to run off with a strange woman whom knew of the garou even if she semed sincear she would have to at least make sure sarah was legit. * Then I will call you tonight *she smiled at her*
*she nods*
Have a good day.
((if you are sort of using the tribal grapevine....it would get back to you that Sarah is not just afiliated with the Uktena, she is a full fledged garou, a scout of the sept.))
It was a pleasure to meet you.. *she smiled and moved the children along and they looked at her with bright eyes wiggling there fingers*
(awesome!)
(where shall we have them meat for coffee?)
The Random coffeehouse of totally randomness!
I'll make a room.
ok brb potty
