MC2:SIU Quotes Sessions 6 - 7.8 =Session 6= * Makoto wanders in, spinning his black-and-white yo-yo in cheerful swoops. This is normal for him. He still has gray eyes and short black hair, and that's normal, too. However, he's about four feet tall and looks to be a big-eyed, innocent-faced version of himself at six years old. * Chie looks up. "Oh good lord. Makoto?" * Rei blinks. "Cute!" * Chomei looks up. "Oh no..." * Peter looks up. ".. That is profoundly disturbing." * Rei peers at Makoto. "You're Makoto, right? Or are ya his lil' brother or somethin'?" * Lazar opens one eye. "Makoto shrink in wash?" * Chie chuckles. "Good one, Laz." * Maria looks over at Makoto. She says, dryly, "Hey, wow. You look different today, Makoto. New haircut?" * Makoto grins. "Yeah, I forgot to set the temperature to 'cold' in the last load of laundry." No pain... tired. Very tired. Sleep gotcha down? Sugar and caffeine is the ultimate answer! And more sleep. * Peter looks up again. ".. I think the last thing you need is more sugar and or caffeine." * Makoto moves away from Rei, to be safe. (Silly Makoto. Nowhere is safe from Rei.) It's not mockery. Well, not really intended to be. I guess maybe it can be taken that way. But, hell, if people mock me, I think I have a right to mock them back. We should put that in the constitution. The Right to Mock. Right after The Right to Tang and before The Right to Stay Up Past Midnight. We're not in America, and those are not in the constitution. * Lazar frowns. "And when I mock you?" * Rei pouts. "Y'call me a... whatever that word was. Starts with an M, ends with an ugh." ( a Mugh? :P ) * Maria walks back in, holding a Kirby plush. "Uhm. Anyone drop this in the hallway?" * Peter blinks. "A.. toy? Be careful. It could be some sort of trap." * Makoto beams happily, and promptly carries the plushie over to Peter, waving Kirby's arms around as if to make the toy "fly" across the room. [When Makoto does that, there's a click, and a recording starts playing!] * Kirby says, sounding like Scrooge McDuck: "Bless me bagpipes! Did you know that while the spear was being stolen from Skygarden last week, there was someone else stealing an even more important item from another wing?" * Kirby says, sounding like Goofy: "Really? Gawrsh! What'd they take now?" * Kirby says, sounding like Sylvester: "Sufferin' succotasch! Some sort of silly spherical stone was taken to Gifu tower!" * Kirby says, sounding like Donald: "Hey! Who are you?" * Kirby says, sounding like Mickey: "No time for that! I hope someone stops them!" * Maria sweatdrops, and doesn't know why. * Kirby stops after that. Okay, everyone who thinks this is a trap, raise your hand. Okay, everyone who thinks this is a trap, raise your hand. * Chie raises hers. * Rei raises her hand, keeps typing with the other. * Chomei slowly raises his hand. Do we really need to vote on this? * Maria raises her hand too. We're voting? * Lazar raises his. * Makoto raises Kirby over his head, and makes the plushie raise its arms. S'not a vote, prof. More like an expression of popular opinion. Kirby thinks it's a trap, too. Gifu Tower... how interesting. Intresting in what way, Prof? "Something we want to investigate" interesting or "Place of our certain doom" interesting? * Chie frowns. "I hate gossip from live people. Why should dead people be any more fun?" Tell them to be quiet or I hit them. Usually work with people. * Lazar deadpans. "Stealing rocks. Evil people." We should hurry. No want be late for trap. * Makoto sneaks into the bathroom once he's out of sight, so as to change back to his normal self in private. Driving as a six-year old causes legal problems. (Aww, I wanted to see that!) * Makoto waits for Chomei, and then follows everybody to the tower. (The tower!) (THE TOWER!) (Wait, that's bad.) (... Reversed?) (The TOWER REVERSED! :p) (El Towerissimo!) (*nods*) (Yum... Asphaltalicious.) ( The.. uh.. Tower of Justice! ) (Hehe.) (For great justice!) ( I HAVE THE TOWERRRRR! ) Ahem. I was asking, why are you here? * Blond tosses her hair and gestures to herself with a coy smile. "I am Francine Jameson III, slayer of demons, terror of the supernatural, and the most beautiful woman in the world! My skill is unmatched at anything. A pleasure to meet you, Francine. What about your charming companions? * WhiteMiB steps forwards. "And I-" Francine cuts him of. "And these are Roy and Marco, my attendants." * Roy frowns, having not gotten to do his introduction. * Makoto smiles winningly at the trio, even poor Roy. Nice to meet you all. Yes, the pleasure is certainly yours. * Peter coughs. "We were given a message that.. something is going to happen here." * Makoto nods. Oh. I see. And we figured it would be a great way to see some professionals in action, because SOMEBODY had to stop it. ~Makoto, you brown-nosing suckup! You rock.~ ~Francine's pretty hot, y'know.~ * Chomei nods as Makoto says that. He doesn't want to do it if he doesn't have to. ;) * Francine turns her head and waves a hand in a shoo-ing motion. "Well, now that I'm here, you won't be necessary." * Peter stares at Makoto. "Dear god, don't tell me you're try.. no, I'm not even going to ask." If you would ignore the talking hormone over there, we have come ourselves to solve this situation. Perhaps we could work together? * Francine grins. "Of course. You'd just love a chance to work with me, wouldn't you? Who could blame you?" * Chie looks at Roy. "Wait, you sensed something?" Yes. I have the ab- * Francine cuts Roy off. "Roy sees dead people." Roy has no time to talk with you. He's particularly busy attending to my every whim. If we are quite done, we have a situation to attend to. Yes, I do. You can all go along. I'll give you my autograph when I finish here. Right. We shouldn't get in your way. Good luck stopping the event and all. We're just going to go into the tower so we can get a better view of the upcoming spectacle. * Chomei looks at Makoto. Oh... he's good. * Marco follows too, but stopping to peeeeeer at Makoto as he passes. * Makoto smiles as innocently as he can manage at Marco. ... I once saw the Great Wall of China. * Marco follows after Francine. * Makoto opens his mouth and is at a loss for any response. I wasn't -trying- to pick up any damned demon hunter, Peter! I only go for normal women. Less likely to kill me. * Lazar frowns. "Fight later. Fight now... wait, that no sound right... you know what I mean." Hope not were-worms. Hate were-worms. Is there anything that isn't were where you come from Lazar? It Transylvania. If it bite, scare, posess, or do evil things, it there. * Chomei stops as he reaches the room. "Where are the others?" They're already past, unfortunately. Oh well, someone else will deal with them. As for you.... * Woman gestures, and a bunch of puppets appear in a flash of light, armed with crude stone axes. They're past wh... oh. Past the puppets. Well, doesn't this suck. ... why noone ever challenge us to cards? ( By the end of tonight's session, I'll have had a minimum of 5 video game refs :P ) * Lazar charges at the nearest of the remaining puppets with a clothesline. 2d6-2 * Dicesuke throws the bones for Lazar (2d6-2) and gets 10, a CRITICAL FAILURE!!! "Death is temporary, only failure is forever. You may have just done both." ( ... one of those days, eh? ) (Laz really should've used his fists, not a clothesline.) [Lazar trips on the remains of the first puppet and falls through the wooden floor, landing on the ground about a half foot below.] [Third floor. You find more destroyed puppets and Francine, leaning against the wall catching her breath. Roy and Marco are there, too, not quite so winded.] * Lazar mostly ignores her. "Follow us." *heads for the next set of stairs* * Roy steps in front of Lazar. "Not so fast." This victory belongs to milady. * Lazar does his best to keep running despite Roy. =P [Meanwhile, Lazar runs over Roy. Ow.] * Chomei runs over Roy after Lazar. ( Poor Roy. ;_; ) ( Hopefully he has a level of Slapstick so he'll survive it. ) [The first one is a tallish man, clad in a tuxedo and a tophat. He wears a white "comedy" mask, a la Shakespeare, and leans on an expensive-looking cane, his hands clad in white gloves.] ( The Phantom of the Opera! ) ( That's who's behind all this! Andrew Lloyd Webber! ) [The second is looks to be in his mid-teens. He's wearing white robes and carrying a single katana, without a sheathe. He's pretty handsome, with chin-length hair.] (It's Satoshi's evil good-looking twin!) ( So.. it's nothing like Satoshi at all? ) ( Spooky. ) The Man in White speaks, "Allow me to explain." He takes a step forwards. "I am Mr. E." He then gestures to the rest. "And this is my club." ... You're kidding. * Chie mutters. "Oh, god. ( Mr. E's club. Haw! ) ( I piddy da foo' who mess wid' E. ) * Lazar curses. "Stupid floor!" [Maria hears an "Oof!" Hopefully that was Virgil. If she asks Lazar, he'll confirm that it was indeed Virgil. And I can say indeed all I want 'cause it's my game :P] (Wah.) Francine heads out, followed by her attendants. "Ta ta!" * Makoto makes gagging motions when she's gone. * Lazar waves, ignoring Makoto. "Nice meeting you..." *waits till she's out of earshot* "... blonde were-hyena. Oy." [Marco pokes his head around the corner.] * Makoto grins at Chie, and then espies Marco. * Maria blinks at Marco. ... I had chicken ramen for dinner last night. * Marco leaves. Strange country. ... That's nice! Chicken ramen's good for you! ... very strange country. ... He's obviously insane. * Lazar eyes the bite marks on his chest. "... skull tried to eat me. Silly skull. Golems no for eating." * SpiritRei is... sucked into a glowing sphere. She shuts up now. * Maria waits a few seconds... Rei isn't talking. Something's definitely wrong. =Session 6.5= * Rei laughs. "Well, I didn't mean ta hurt your head or anything but, uhm, anyway, I made some friends - at least, I think they're friends - and I haven't been called a freak all that much, so it's all been pretty cool. Except for one teensy little thing. Is Dad there?" Sorry Rei, he's at lunch. Maybe I can help. Oh. Well, um. It's kinda... um... how do I put this... Katsu's gone evil and stole Mommy's sword and his ass is so grass soon as she hears about it but he kinda deserves it and I got sucked into a blue stone and everything really SUCKS! ... 'Cept I'm not in the blue stone anymore. * Eoi boggles. But it still sucks. Mr. E's club. Mr. E'd be the old guy in white. Oh, they all jumped into the portal thingie, too. No idea why, though. Something about a master plan, but then, everyone and their grandma has a master plan and ARGH! it's so frustrating. ( She thinks that's frustrating? Better not show up for tomorrow's session, then c.c ) * Shigeru frowns. "Tell me what. You didn't put jam in Mitsuji's hair again, did you?" ( Nah. Rei'd be dead if she tried that. ) * Rei takkes a deep breath. "Katsu stole Mom's sword and it's possessing him or something or maybe it's not, I don't know, but he really wasn't acting quite the same, and I got sucked into a blue stone thingie and it hurt like hell - oops, not s'posed to say that - but that's not the point. The point is that the stone was used to open a portal to the demon realm and Katsu jumped in and I don't know anymore!" ... He what? Kid pulled a Mei-Yin it looks like. Sounds like you've been having an exciting time Rei. Can you remember anything else we should know? Perhaps involving legendary Naginatas and/or demons? No. I mean, besides the whole metal demon calling to mind a prophecy about the end of the world and all... * Eoi pauses while drinking coffee out of his custom "#1 Naginata" mug and coughs loudly. "What?" * Shigeru looks up. "What?" Geez, we didn't get our first Apocolypse for like.. a few months. You guys really are fast. * Shigeru glances over at Eoi. ~I knew it was a bad idea to let her do this,~ he thinks to his partner. * Eoi rubs his head. ~I think you mentioned it once.. or twice.. or all month.~ ( And how! :P ) So Katsu's in the demon realm, or at least you think he is. It's a place to start. Did you tell your mother yet? * Eoi shudders at imagining Mei-Yin's reaction. Uh... no? I was kinda... hoping... you would. I mean, not that I wouldn't, it's just that you know how she gets when she's mad and stuff and it's gonna be- you want me to tell her, don't you? Perhaps we could hire some sort of ninja to tell her. They're trained to risk life and limb. * Shigeru states dryly, "They're not trained well enough." He sighs. "Try to get ahold of her, Rei. And make sure Mitsuji isn't around." * Eoi grins. "and I thought we had it tough. We didn't have PARENTS to deal with too." * Shigeru idly throws a pencil across the room at Eoi. "It's not your fault, kiddo. Try to keep tabs on Katsu, and make sure you check up on your mother and Mitsuji every once in a while. And keep in touch with us." * Eoi is beaned in the head with a pencil. "Ow!" =Session 7= [Yesterday, things went from bad to worse, as you met many many interesting people who all wanted to be better than you or kill you. But that's pretty typical, frankly.] * Lazar is reading what appears to be a information pamphlet for the university. Hm. Thinking of enrolling, Laz? * Lazar turns to Maria. "Not really. Ran into large man on way here, accidentally knocked him down. When I help him up, he give me paper, ask me to think of joining sumo team. Odd man..." Golem no do sumo. Wear loincloth, not diaper. *muttermutter* Among those people was a man with the name "Mister E.", and Rei's brother, who has the cursed sword Ambition. A hint? I vas not informed of any mission since the previous one. It was delivered by a.. * Peter coughs. A talking Kirby doll. A talking vhat? I know not of dis "Kirrby." * Chomei shakes his head. "What hole have you been hiding in man?" Kirby no big in Eastern Europe. That's a shame... a real shame. I only heard of him because of Transylvanian were-kirbies. * Chie turns to Lazar. "You're kidding, right? ...you're not kidding." I refuse to believe that there are were-Kirbies. Lazar> Am no kidding. Ate two of my friends. Were-Kirbies? ...the horror. * Peter eyes Lazar. "You're making that one up. The closest that exist to that are the were-marshmellows." * Chie makes a face. "They defile the good name of Kirby." A 'Mr. E.'? And Rei's brother? If he iz like her, perhaps ve should be very scared, nyet? * Dimitri actually makes an attempt to grin. * Dimitri picks up the Kirby in one hand, and the stone in the other. ".... Vhich iz vhich?" * Chie facepalms. Uhh... the PINK one is Kirby. The soft, pink thing is Kirby. * Chomei facepalms. * Maria facepalms. The stone is the Rosetta Stone. No! The pink one's the rock! Fluffy pink rock! * Dimitri squeezes it, causing it to squeal "Hiiiiii!" Fluffy pink TALKING rock! What so odd about talking rock? That this one is fluffy and pink too? ... point. No fluffy pink golems. .. They want us to fight a.. Metal Demon? Oh dear god. * Chie looks at Peter. "Prof? Didn't you say the best way to deal with it is to get the hell away?" As in space-craft so we can get off of this planet before it blows it up? * Peter looks at Dimitri. "Okay. I need a couple of hours." What for, prof man? Got a super sekrit plan? Indeed I do. Ve do not haf dat long. Oh, surely we could distract it for an hour or so until Professor comes to our rescue. Maaan, not Asahara again. Hasn't it gotten blown up enough already? You'd think it's Tokyo Tower or somethin'. ... water bad. Golems no swim well. ( They sink like rocks. ) ( Though if you get someone really, really strong, I suppose you could try to skip the golem across the sea of China... ) * Rei looks around. "Place for me to nap?" ( Rei sees a phone booth! ) (*runs in, changes* I'm SUPAA REI!) ( "... this looks like a job for SuperRei!" ) ( A phone booth! I wonder how many Reis we can cram into it? ) * Lazar looks around. Anything large and blunt an industrious golem could use to hit stuff with? [Lazar has his choice of: a) big concrete rock, b) old pipe, or c) jagged I-beam] (I-beam, I-beam!) (Yes! Go I-beam!) * Lazar hefts the I-beam. "... this will do." * Dimitri picks up the sword and waits for Chie to come get it. * Chie walks over to Dimitri and takes the sword. (And then when Chie gets close enough, Dimitri STABS her!) (Stabbie stabbie!) ( Vould I do dat? ) ( I-beams ownzor. ) (I need to get one.) Shh. Hunting very bad demon. ( Be vewy, vewy qwiet! ) Why do they always want to be where it's dark? * SpiritRei yoinks the bottle from the professor and zooms straight at the demon, trying to spray water directly on it. [Rei squirts the demon. It's a shiny demon now.] * Chie holds out a box of Sudden Dye, the Screaming Pink variety. * Chomei looks at that stuff. "Hey, isn't that supposed to be labeled under the 'use at your own risk' section?" Dimitri Romanov... He worked for SIU until 5 years ago. He died during a mission in Sibera. ... Well, he's looking *awfully* good for a dead guy. Nightchikins. (ACK! Damn. Sorry. ^_^;) [A random citizen walks by and shouts "NIGHTCHIKINS!" at you.] [He must be insane. Then he leaves. Got it?] ( Got it. ) (Aye.) ... things much easier in Transylvania. Bad guys all had fangs, fur, glowed... * Chie looks at her sword. "I could use a good round of monster-slaying right now. Or *something* slaying. Or maybe I'll just go home and drink 'til I pass out." ... drink would be good, yes. Lazar, you can't get drunk, or even taste it. It's the thought that counts, prof. * Makoto emerges from the ruined building, saying something like... "More vipes vould not be amiss." ... you kiss demon? ( Cham comes by, shouts "Chikins!" and punches Makoto :P ) ( Damn you, Cham! ) ~Peachy wonderful. This is so not my day. Like yesterday wasn't my day. What's up with that?~ ( Hehe. ) ( You're in MC now :P ) =Session 7.2= * Maria frowns. If I were a magically-inclined conspirator, where would I be? * Maria decides that she'd be somewhere rich if she were a magically-inclined conspirator. Lots of privacy that way, and the honcho'd have to be rich anyway. "Ges all sortsa loonie people... n' schtuff.... yah." The other drunk points at him. "Hic. Like you!" The first one nods and points his thumb at himself. "Yah. Like me!" "Loony"? What kind of loony? The drunk points at his head. "Schcreud up 'n' schtuff 'n' schtuff." ( Do both the men look Japanese? ) ( Yes, and not even anime-Japanese. They look like Cartoony Japanese. Drawn in lower quality, yep :P ) ( c.c; ) Ah. Everyone who come in here screwed up? The second drunk points at the first. "Nah. Jus' him. 'N' the elapant. Tell the elapant t' shaddup." The... elephant. Right. Tell you boys what, I'm gonna go get me a drink. Be right back! "Yah." He looks at a nearby salt shaker. "They sh' put a warnin' on this. Na schafe." * Maria smirks. "The one true constant of the universe. Everyone likes a drink." "I might have a small idea that could be useful, but I can't remember what it was. Let me think about it." * Maria hands over another $100. He slides it into his pocket. "Rather generous of you. This isn't extremely helpful, but I've remembered it all the same. These people... Well, they're likely armed. You wouldn't want to go there without purpose, or there's no telling what they might do." * Maria nods. "Of course." Waste of a $100. ( Yup. That was only a $5 :P ) [Time: 12:45. Maria finds Amigo's pretty easily. It's not exactly a common name for bars in this area.] ( Department stores, sure. But not bars. ) =Session 7.4= * Rei looks around. "Yes! A girl with taste!" And with that, she runrunflops into a beanbag chair. ( The beanbag eats Rei! Oh no! :P ) * Chie quickly leaves the kitchen and heads for the bedroom. [Chie finds it!] * Chie sticks her head back out. "Hey, Makoto, don't you know it's rude to look in a lady's bedroom without her permission?" She winks. ( No it's not! The Margina W. Act of 2022 officially made it so it wasn't rude to do that :P ) ( All of these OOC comments. Start getting drunk so I can do stuff IC instead. ) In Transylvania, drinking phrase is "Baszom a sza'd sze'le't, Sanyika'm!" Big deal! ... I like that. What language is it? Hungarian. Translates to... I think... "I make love to corner of your mouth, dear Alexander!" * Makoto tries again. "This Alexander must have been a -really- popular guy." Oh. So you're a *German* doppelganger. It all makes sense now. The yo- yo. The smile. The cucumbers. * Makoto nods, and sets the glass down for a moment, even though it has some brew left in it. Yeah, those cucumbers gave it all away, huh? But your name's Japanese. ( His real name is.... Kirby! ) ... if cat person, is there need to be fixed? * Makoto looks back at Lazar. "Some doppelgangers can shift even fa-- NO. Just... NO." I want to win. What do we get if we win? Lesss say... the loser has to remove one article of their clothing. Oooh! * Makoto rubs his paws together. I like this game. * Rei settles into the beanbag. "Okay! What do I win? Cars? Tang? Foreign... hey, that's not fair. We already saw Lazar mostly naked, and there's two girls to one Cat-guy!" Well, c'n play truth or dare with the dice. Loser has to answer one question. Or do a dare instead. Whaddya think? I'm game. Well, I'm not -a- game, but... yeah. I like. ... sounds okay. No involve taking off clothes that don't exist. I would offer to help you, but somebody might think I'd just use it as an excuse to get fresh. Everythin's an excuse to get fresh with you. ... why Makoto get fresh? He like loud blonde woman, right? No, Lazar, that time I was just trying to help the club. Well... she - was- pretty. But too noisy. * Rei pouts, then blinks. "Daydream?" Y'know, when you jus' ... stop thinkin' 'bout what you're doing, and your mind wanders off to do its own things without your permission. ( Sure. Rei does that constantly. Didn't you notice? :P ) Well, I don't know any bat people. And the Count is a character from these old childrens shows that got ported over to German from America. He counted. He was a vampire. They're supposed to be obsessed with counting things, or something. ... vampire on children's show? Very very odd... And hey... 's Makoto asleep? ( He's asleep! Quick! Doodle on him! ) Bye bye, Lazar! Don't do anything I wouldn't do! (Admittedly, that's not a very big list. >.>) ( So I no can throw bus of nuns off bridge? ... no. ) ( What if they're vampiric nuns? ) (Then that's okay!) Yeah. Now that you mention it, I think I have a bee costume at home. Like tuna! Y... eh? Bee... tuna... Bumblebee Tuna! * Rei pauses, then ponders. "Hey, Makoto? Y'get lotsa girls, right?" * Makoto shrugs. "Yes, and no." ( He gets one a month in the mail. =P ) So yer someone else to pick up girls? 'S pretty stupid. Then it's not you, it's someone else. I know. It is pretty stupid. But... doppelgangers aren't usually very nice. It's hard for me to avoid causing trouble. So... somewhere along the way I thought that was a harmless enough way to do it. No way! If you're gonna cause trouble, ya gotta do it with style! Like replacin' pool water with Jell-O and putting peanut butter on the toilet seat and stuff. * Makoto looks back at Rei, unblinking. He doesn't say anything for a long time. Finally he sighs. "You might be right. But I've gotta find something to do with all my time if I'm not doing what I always do. And sometimes pretending to be other people is just fun. Like with the cat, and the charades." ( Learn to juggle. ... ) * Rei reaches up and pats her hair. It looks just as wildly messy as it did before. "Hey! I spend alla two seconds making my hair look as fabulous as it does!" * Makoto nods and replies with a surprisingly straight face. "It really shows, Rei. That's a good look for you." Ya think? I was thinkin' the other day, y'know, "Rei, girl, y'gotta get it styled." Then I remembered that when Mom took me to do that, I was sittin' in a chair for four hours while they kept tryin' to get it to look all pretty and stuff, but it didn't work or anythin'. And then they freaked out when I didn't react when they tried to get me off the chair! I mean, c'mon. Four hours? I'm not gonna just stay in my body when I had someone to blackmail. So then creeeeeepy stuff started happenin' around me, and that and blackmail kept people from doin' too much. Besides calling me names, but what the hell? I really am a freak. Not a freak at all. ( Just meshuggenah! ) =Session 7.6= ( You get to Rei's "apartment". It's actually just an empty lot with a really, really big cream pie in the center. ) (Pie!) ( Mmm, pie! ) * Maria winks at Chomei, then looks at Makoto. "Makoto, do I feel like letting you go yet?" * Makoto seems to deliberate for a while. Idunno... you -do- smell nice... ...yes, yes I do. * Maria lets go of Makoto. * Maria snickers and goes over to the door! ( And then they got attacked by an evil panda. No, not really. ) ( But only 'cause pandas aren't evil. ) I don't like the looks of this. Whenever they're talking so quiet that I can't hear them, I know something's wrong. ( With Chomei, though, that doesn't take much :P ) You like the colors? Cool! I mean, usually the landlord comes in and says, "ARGH, MY EYES!" and runs out screaming in pain and agony, but hey, what does he know? He probably knows that this is going to be a bitch to paint over after you move out. But I'm just guessing. ( He knows many things 'cause he's a villian. ) *Very* nice, actually. Where'd you get all this stuff? ( flea market :P ) [Makoto sees an old scanner with a big Engrish lable: "Caution, not to be used for the other use."] Oooh. * Makoto thinks the label is very helpful, since he can't read real English anyway. Nah, she needs to try it without any extra stuff. Everyone likes Tang... except for mom, but that's besides the point. ( I don't! ) ("...!") ( I also do not like Tang. ) (I think it's okay. I *do* think it would taste pretty good in waffles, but then, I'm weird. :P) (Okay, I admit it, I don't like Tang either. But Ard probably is right... Tangy waffles, gotta try that some time.) ( It appears many of us do not like Tang. ) ( Let us form a rebellion. We shall call ourselves the Tang Liberation Army. ) (TLA?) ( Yes. It abbreviates nicely. ) (Aye, it does.) (That just makes me think of freeing Tang from slavery. It's being oppressed!) (How about Tang Awareness Month?) * Maria takes a big mouthful of Tang. Drumroll, please. ( Maria DIES on the spot! (actually, she was assassinated to rally people's anger against Tang. ) Is pie supposed to be fluffy? =Session 7.8= *** Actually, nothing that was funny enough to be noteworthy happened in this session. Instead, here's a quote from Breath of Fire 2: "Sleeping in the open is good. Do you want to sleep in the open?"
