"Aw crap." Greed frowned. "The place is crowded eough." he complaied. Jun chattered animatedly, bristling slightly. "Yes, i know you don't like cats, Jun." he sighed.

"Hey, Jun, I will protect you! I can shift into a nice big dog whenever it's needed, eh?"

Ju seemed pleased with this aswer ad stopped with ehr squeaking.

((sorry, I zoned.))

Ming paused, thinking. "Hey, I'm not crack-happy!" Ming frowned at Envy before finally registering what he had said. "Wait, I get to go to Central? Yay! I used to go to boarding school here, but I moved back to Xing when I was 8. I was killed on the train ride, but I was brought back. And now, 4 years after I set out to find Yuan here, well, I've finally found him!" She kept lapsing in and out of Xingese without realizing it. Xiaobo, in the meantime, had climbed up onto her head and draped his paws in her face.

"You know you keep speaking in Xingese?" Yua asked with raised eyebrows. "Envy, do you even speak Xingese?" he added, glancing at Evy with curious eyes.

by **Alaric** Wed Mar 17, 2010 2:37 pm

"Uh, no, I speak Auregese. Kon'nichi wa, baka-chan!"

"Oh, sorry. I keep forgetting. I've lived in Amestris for four years, and Xing for the rest of my life. Xiaobo, please get your paws out of my face. They have sand in them." Ming said, taking Xiaobo off her head. He self-consiously began licking them furiously, which only made the sand stick more.

Envy snickered.

((Look! I has a picture! I't just a sketh out of my falling apart sketch book done at lunchtime and homeroom by Yuan, but look! I has a picture! Lol, I'm spazzing.))

by **Yuan Yao/ Greed** Thu Mar 18, 2010 9:33 am

"That cat is so weird." Yuan commented, surpressing a laugh.

by **Alaric** Thu Mar 18, 2010 3:17 pm

"Yup... definitely."

by Guest Fri Mar 19, 2010 7:22 am

Xiaobo stopped licking his paws and softly hissed at the guys, ending with a short yowl. "Now Xiaobo, that isn't very nice of you to say!" Ming exclaimed. "Even if I agree with you part way." She added under her breath. "And he is not!" Ming shouted to the guys, picking Xiaobo up protectively and placing him on her head.

"You can talk to your pet too?" Al asked with a strained vice and a dead-pan look, "Now that's not fair."

by **Yuan Yao/ Greed** Fri Mar 19, 2010 7:34 am

"It's easy to understand them when you get the hang of it." yuan stated. "I also have a book on speaking to animals." he grinned. "It was written by a guy that they thought was a quak, turns out he knew what he was talin' about."

by Guest Fri Mar 19, 2010 7:45 am

"Yes, it is. You've read a book about it? No fair, I had to figure it out on my own." Ming pouted, then smiled. "Well, Xiaobo taught me how to understand him. He speaks differently form other cats, though. I don't know why."

by **Alaric** Fri Mar 19, 2010 12:58 pm

"Hm, well, whatever."

by **Yuan Yao/ Greed** Fri Mar 19, 2010 1:00 pm

"I could probably get you a copy of the book." Greed said boredly, scratching Jun on the head.

by **Alaric** Fri Mar 19, 2010 3:03 pm

"Sure, why not? It's something to occupy on the trip back."

by **Yuan Yao/ Greed** Fri Mar 19, 2010 8:24 pm

Jun squeaked and dove into Yuan's bag he kept hidden beneath his jacket. the rat came wriggling out again with a thick 'handbook' sized volume that was surprisingly in Amestrian.

by **Alaric** Fri Mar 19, 2010 8:38 pm

Envy blinked as he took the book and read the cover, raising an eyebrow before grinning at Jun.
"Thanks! I should be able to understand you soon, Jun-chan!"

by Guest Sat Mar 20, 2010 6:04 am

"And maybe I can teach you how to understand Xiaobo someday. Or he can teach you himself, but I can tell you'll be preoccupied by trying to understand Jun for a while."

by **Yuan Yao/ Greed** Sat Mar 20, 2010 11:04 am

Jun seemed quite pleased at this thought.

by **Alaric** Sat Mar 20, 2010 7:53 pm

Envy grinned.

Scientists from all over the world gathered this past June in Tucson, Arizona, for a FASEB-sponsored meeting organized by George Mackie (Univ. of British Columbia) and Roy Parker (Univ. of Arizona) highlighting new developments in the area of posttranscriptional gene regulation by mRNA degradation. The researchers in attendance represented two biological realms, eubacteria and eukaryotes, and while the molecular players, pathways, and regulation of mRNA turnover in these two phyla are clearly distinct, recurrent themes were unmistakable. Regardless of the organism, data were presented reinforcing our understanding that mRNA degradation in all systems is modulated by trans-acting factors, ribonucleolytic or not, in response to cis-acting RNA sequences. Furthermore, the adjustment of trans-effector activity and the accessibility of the cis-acting regulatory sequences is used by both prokaryotes and eukaryotes to provide additional layers of complexity to the process. A role for RNA polyadenylation in destabilizing eukaryotic RNA, reminiscent of the decay of stable RNAs in bacteria, was recently uncovered, and in both organisms, alternative fates for mRNAs engaged in translation were presented. Structural information for ribonucleases and accessory RNA decay proteins is proving to offer insight into catalytic function and possible regulatory mechanisms governing mRNA turnover. Moreover, the characterization of mRNA degradation in new model organisms, both bacterial and eukaryotic, is leading to both the confirmation of existing decay pathways and the discovery of new ones.
