Reply Subj: That's not really in the spirit of the season now is it?

    Interesting movement in things, nice to see a Manga town focus but now I am worried - offing one of Visionary's characters makes it all that more likely that the big man himself will not come out of this unscathed.


It's good to be able to invoke a sense of dread in one's readers. And really, would Vizh cash in is chips if Hallie and Fleabot were still alive?


    Quote:
    Could this really be, the end of the Parodyverse?

      Quote:
          Akiko smelled the fresh cold air of a different world and noticed that her pink battle armour had less electronics and more decorated beading than before.



    Quote:
    Insert Adam art request here.


Seconded.

      Quote:
          â€œCall them skirmishes,” the Psychic Samurai suggested. “The Faerie Queene and some other creatures of power here are not happy about the influx of what they see as challengers. Nor are they used to such effective opposition.”



    Quote:
    I can't really blame the Mythlanders for being "not happy" with a whole bunch of refugees trying to take over and claiming their little girl is the next Queen in waiting anyway. Says who? an evil old fey who got her butt whipped? what happened to democratic choice?


I discerned that you felt strongly on this subject. I may need to address the issue at some stage.

Then again, Vizh isn't likely to let anything happen to his poster-character if Magweed and Griffin were returning to Earth, is he?


    Quote:
    And honestly:



    Quote:

      Quote:
          â€œLike when they sent in those horse dudes with human tops and those Abhuman bros just stomped on ‘em?” Bull remembered happily.



    Quote:
    Violently murdered a heard of Centaurs who were doing nothing more than partaking in their annual hunt.


The Abhumans kept all dissections of genetic crossbreeds to a minimum.


    Quote:

      Quote:
          â€œAnd those raiding trolls who bumped into the Martian army guys from Planet Skree-Yar,” Cacciatore enthused.



    Quote:
    Annihilated a simple family of hill trolls out for an evening meal with advanced weaponry.


The Skree-Yar have long since learned that with large green adversaries with distinctive skull-bumps it is best to shoot first before they can start to shape-shift.


    Quote:
    Etc..

      Quote:
          â€œThere clues are all there should anyone have the wit and knowledge to assemble them. I see no reason to indulge intellectual sloppiness.”



      Quote:
      Rude!


    So we have a villain who despises those who do not pay attention.


      Quote:
      “This realm must go. I had not expected it to become a buffer against my salvation of my Parodyverse.”



    Quote:
    This one is really the give away.


What did it give away?


    Quote:

      Quote:
          He held up the dagger. “This weapon is brand new, yet it was forged at the same moment and with the same tools as the Celestians were made. It is compounded of Adamantine, Serious Matter, and Impossibilitium, melded by corposant fire and the force of the Gaaah!, sealed for eternity by the Jarvis Cosmic. It was first conceived by the Shaper of Worlds who commands all beginnings. The Chronicler of Stories who directs the narrative defined it in purpose and power. It was consecrated to kill by the Destroyer of Tales, master of every ending. It can end gods and more than gods. All this by my will and doing. I dub it the Inevitable Blade.”



    Quote:
    That's a nice piece of history/law/writing/plotting right there.


Another bit I;ve been saving for years.


    Quote:

      Quote:
          â€œThis is ManMan’s weapon. Knifey.”



    Quote:
    Ping!


Now I want a fight between the two of them!


    Quote:

      Quote:
          She plunged the Inevitable Blade into her chest and fell.



    Quote:
    Gasp!


No matter how well you plan, there's always someone who insists on bleeding over your best plots.


    Quote:

      Quote:
          â€œHmm,” her visitor said, mildly inconvenienced. He retrieved his knife and wiped it on pink sheets. “Let us go and see whether Baroness Elizabeth will be more tractable,” she told the weapon. “And if not… we have all night.”



    Quote:
    Oh dear.


Indeed.

        Quote:
        By popular demand, Untold Tales is taking a couple of days off for the holidays. Season's compliments to all of you at home.



    Quote:
    Who demanded? Your children and loved ones? What, do they think they can command your time more than people on the internets you've never met?*


I am apparently required to eat Christmas dinner and to spend three hours of Christmas Eve discussing the influence of Gnosticism on early Christian adoption of the Yule festival.


    Quote:
    Just kidding - have a Happy and Merry Christmas Watsar Clan.


Reciprocated.


    Quote:
    *Well - we've now met that once, and I've met Adam and his lovely dog a long time before, but still.


I've only ever met five posters myself.

      Quote:
      Next, on probably 27th December, Christmas pudding allowing: Avrogadrus del Lune and the Heretics of Tomorrow



    Quote:
    I shall be looking forward to it.


Splendid.
