Current Status
When Dr. Tachyon's other human allies returned to Earth, Kelly chose to remain on Takis. She still retains some of the limited telepathy force-fed into her mind during Tachyon's occupancy of her body. Kelly currently lives in the Ilkazam compound, helping Tachyon raise his surrogate daughter. As of her last appearance it is unknown if she carried her second child to term, though it seems likely in light of Tachyon's plan to interbreed the telepathic and "mind blind" populations of Takis. What part Kelly or her offspring will play in future Wild Card books is uncertain.

Famous quotes containing the words current and/or status:
“For the purpose of knowledge, one must know how to use that inner current that draws us to a thing, and then the one that, after a time, draws us away from it.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Anthropologists have found that around the world whatever is considered “men’s work” is almost universally given higher status than “women’s work.” If in one culture it is men who build houses and women who make baskets, then that culture will see house-building as more important. In another culture, perhaps right next door, the reverse may be true, and basket- weaving will have higher social status than house-building.”
—Mary Stewart Van Leeuwen. Excerpted from, Gender Grace: Love, Work, and Parenting in a Changing World (1990)
