Museum/Tickets

Tickets to the Museum are printed with white ink on indigo-blue cardboard stubs. Each has an armillary sphere with a spiral galaxy inside on one side framed in the simple box title of "The Museum", and on the other, instructions on how to reach the one of the six warp-unique entrances to it, framed in a box with -- mysteriously -- the name of the person the ticket was given to. Often, Mel first learns a person's name by looking at the ticket he's pulled out of the pocket for the intended person. Despite the formality of these personalized invites, anyone is allowed to enter the Museum even if they do not have a ticket.

A recent tense exchange between Hydra/Gamma and Mel in the office of the Museum has suggested there may be a more sinister purpose to the tickets within the confines of the Museum. Upon the implication of a threat, Mel manifested a ticket with Hydra/Gamma's name upon it and began tearing it up, dropping it piece by piece to the floor. The last piece was held as if it were the Sword of Damocles, waiting for Hydra/Gamma's ultimatum. The last piece was never dropped, so it can only be conjectured what might have happened if it had been. It may be that the disposal of these freely given tickets could eject an unwanted prescence from the museum -- or possibly worse, within Curator ethical restrictions, of course. (An actual log of this situation's key elements may be posted later.)
