GLoG VI: Thread of One Thousand Plots

[Ashen Lilies]

Clarification: My voice is in fact completely monotonous, and completely devoid of all expression or ticks, therefore my speech conditionals are born out of necessity rather than comedic effect, unlike a certain other (more well known) homicidal robot..
Statement: I am of course, completely bull@%#&ing you.
Clarification: I did indeed actually say '@%#&'. It sounded like atpercenthashmarkand.

[Saint Nil]

Can someone give me a summry of what has happened over the last few pages since Fanboy died?)

[randman22222]

Opinion: Interesting... Meatbag...

Huh. The smurf is asleep. Cute.

[Ashen Lilies]

Summary: Randy's come back, the imposter has been defeated, giving everyone back their good, Happy's been to War Island and Magtok Land, and after returning to good, was rescued by Lex and is in the pixie village thread, awaiting (yet another) epiphany.

[randman22222]

Clarification: Randy's come back a second time.
Embarrassing Question: What's an epiphany?

[Ashen Lilies]

Definition: e·piph·a·ny (n)
1. (initial capital letter) a Christian festival, observed on January 6, commemorating the manifestation of Christ to the gentiles in the persons of the Magi; Twelfth-day.
2. an appearance or manifestation, esp. of a deity.
3. a sudden, intuitive perception of or insight into the reality or essential meaning of something, usually initiated by some simple, homely, or commonplace occurrence or experience.
4. a literary work or section of a work presenting, usually symbolically, such a moment of revelation and insight.
Embarrassing Statement: I only knew that because of the Simpsons Movie.

((Basically that feeling or moment where everything clicks into place and makes you go AH! Or, in the words of aforementioned movie, 'a sudden and overwhelming realization of great truth.'))

[randman22222]

As soon as this disembodied voice begins rattling off the definition, I cut him off with, Yeah, I'll look it up some other time.
...Meatbag.

[happyturtle]

((Also Fanboy has nearly completed his afterlife quest. It should be wrapped up tonight, and then Neirian will let Nil know that if it is God's will that he be resurrected, Fan is now ready to return.))

[Ashen Lilies]

So anyway... What were we talking about?

[randman22222]

Ehh, I don't remember.
I should go work on installing the probes and sensors.
Y'know, I'm gonna go work on installing the probes and sensors of the supercollider.

[Saint Nil]

(Thank you all. It would have taken forever to read ever single side quest everyone has gone through)

[Ashen Lilies]

What are you building a probe for anyway?
Oh. And I forgot to tell you, you're free to use my magitech grenades if you ever need them.

[randman22222]

The probes are built already. Now I'm installing them. Need to determine just how three key quarks in this universe function.

[Ashen Lilies]

Kris ponders for a moment.
.......Dimensional Travel? Sorry, but I can't help with that, dimensional and aerospace technology hit a dead end in my universe after a few horrible accidents to do with Jump Drives.((Deadtime.))

[randman22222]

Yeah, it's interdimensional travel. And that's okay, it doesn't need so much work for now. I go to the lab to start positioning probes.

[happyturtle]

George watches Czernov sleep, feeling a mixture of happiness, confusion, and guilt. Unlike the usual progression, he had fallen in love with Czernov before he'd ever fallen in lust. He'd never suspected he was bisexual. Hell, maybe he wasn't. Czernov was the only man he'd ever felt anything like attraction for.

And now, thanks to Thor, Czernov loved him back. All of the trauma of the assault and the still unexplained body swap was gone, and in its place, was left a Czernov that was happy and healthy. A Czernov that wanted George as badly as George wanted him.

But was it right to purchase happiness at such a cost? Czernov's memories replaced? Even if they were replacing painful memories with pleasurable ones, it was still an untruth.

Am I second guessing Thor?

That's quite enough of that, boy. It was all done for the best and everyone's happy now. Time to make you happy too.

And when George blinks his eyes, he is left wondering what he had been worried about, and why there was the smell of ozone in the air.

He crawls into bed, snuggles up close with his lover, and falls asleep in utter contentment.

[randman22222]

((Just curious. Does this mean Thor is one of your characters? ))

[happyturtle]

((No, he's Kaelaroth's character. I just borrowed him to erase George's conscience, because Turtle's going to have quite enough guilt enough for one player to manage. ))

[randman22222]

((Ahh.))
I come up out of the service lift in the lab. The magnets are at 6 Kelvin, and I've only got two more sensor clusters to place.

[Kaelaroth]

Czernov stirs, mumbling, falling in his sleep onto George.

[Lex-Kat]

Melody wakes up. Gets down, and goes skipping back to her room.

Tra-la-la-lala-laa. Laa-la-lala-la-laa. Tra-la-la-lala-laa. Laa-la-lala-la-laa.

@V Yeah, except brown hair. To distinguish her from Smurfette.

[happyturtle]

Spoiler

Show

((Would this be what Melody looks like?))

[Kaelaroth]

Czernov mumbles in his sleep, apparently dreaming of something pleasant, cuddling up to George.

[happyturtle]

((Just FYI for anyone who hasn't followed Turtle from thread to thread. She and Lex are battling Draken here.))

((Deadtime though. Kae you can godmod George, if you have any use for him besides the obvious. Or you could just godmod the obvious. ))

[Kaelaroth]

Czer, leaving George to sleep, hums happily in the shower, before getting out, drying off, and putting on a fresh black shirt, and grey jeans.
He strolls around the base.

[randman22222]

I come out of the lab, slightly sweaty, and get a cuppa tea.

[Kaelaroth]

Hello Randy. I found some papers of interdimensional breaching, which look at it from a completely different viewpoint. Czer says, as he sits down, clean, smiling.

[randman22222]

Magic standpoint? Or, (My face lights up) a psionic standpoint?

[Kaelaroth]

Technological. It suggests that a high enough pulse of radiation can temporarily rip holes in the fabric of dimensional continuum, provided you're pumping the air with a volatile gas first. And it has to be done at a structural weakpoint in reality, whatever that means. Czer gets himself some OJ.

[randman22222]

Oh... Now my face goes distant.
I never did find out how they were taking me from HALO... I wonder if this isn't how they were doing it...
