STORY
John Grimsen catches unique entities for The Lab, and after two years of being out and in our base reality on an "Just sort of do your thing and send us stuff" kind of mission, he realizes he misses his old partner, Sabine, too much and needs to return to The Lab so he can see her. He rings a bell and wakes up back in The Lab where outside his door is an infinite series of skyless hallways that contain, behind glass, every unique thing that has been captured for The Lab.
His search for her is not easy, as Lab Coats get in his way to ask him questions about things he's done, an ancient rock monster who used to be a monk in a different time wants to fight him, work requirements threaten his very existence, and old friends who always want something demand his attention.
Through out all this and worse, John keeps his cool. It ain't his first rodeo. However, something is different from the last time he was in. All that other stuff is par for the course, but the level of lethality seems suspect. Will John survive it all?
Meanwhile, Dr. Ambower is living her best life. She has assumed higher responsibilities and is taking them quite seriously. There's lots to do so she's busy and happy. She's staying fit, keeping up on all the latest, and taking time to mentor the other Lab Coat's, like Dan Tesla, who recently was brought into The Lab after he accidentally turned a swarm of flies into a hive mind. Good job Dan! Now you live here.
To add onto the "It's all turning up Dr. Ambower" pile, she even has direct communication with Director 5, which is quite woefully rare for a Lab Coat.
It's all going smoothly until John Grimsen shows back up.
This is a story for those who enjoy playful writing, deep detail, sentences within sentences, and earnest horror.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
