Subj: Well, I gave a medium level gasp then. Posted: Sat Jan 07, 2017 at 03:59:06 am EST (Viewed 485 times) | Reply Subj: They were really medium-sized revelations, really. Posted: Fri Jan 06, 2017 at 08:48:56 pm EST (Viewed 2 times) | ||||||
Quote: Well, he got one spotlight story, kind of. Then the big name star came in and stole the spotlight anyway.As is their wont. Quote: Quote: It was also interesting to see the Hooded Hood act in such a direct way in the first flashback scene. We usually don't get to see that. Quote: Given how much the Parody Master insulated his people from the Hooded Hood there wasn't a great range of options for the Hood to take. And this is only a couple of months before the Hood's fist fight with the PM.I still remember parts of that story very well, and whenever I hear Holst's Mars, the Bringer of War I think of the Parody Master. Quote: Quite right. The Apostate is back in our very next chapter - and this time it's personal!I bet he won't last till the end of the issue though. Quote: Quote: And thus the other big revelation, that everything really revolves around a love story between the Nexus of Unreality and...a...Bog Thing?Quote: Well, not everything; just enough so that spiffy can be blamed.Is that really fair though? I mean, it's the Nexus who is running around with the plant creature in the first place. Quote: As for the lovely Zemo triplets, we've known for a long time that whichever of their offspring survived longest inherited the destiny to be an ancestor of the Celestian Madonna. Since Suicide Blonde died and Exile was, well exiled from candidacy, G-Eyed is the lucky winner. Then there was that incident with Laurie and Dr Loveray.Aww my granddaughter is dead? I barely knew her. Quote: Quote: Well, it was a lovely song all the same so who am I to judge. *totally judges* Quote: Don't be plantist.Totally not. Remember, BogThing and Nexus (if you're reading), I started Forest Week, and brought in the Urban Druid. Totally not plantist here. Quote: Quote: At this point we could have done with your updated family chart? Presumably you will share it in the next pulse-pounding concluding issue? Quote: You may have to wait till the next full issue for that. There are still spoilers on it.Awww. Maybe you can grey them out? Quote: Quote: So the three lovely Zemette sisters Quote: One was.Hope. It was Hope. I hope. Quote: Quote: Quote: And the third sister, Maladucta, she was with… a Harper offspring? How did Al’s kids…? Never mind, she bore Bambi, the Suicide Blonde, who controlled matter.Quote: Quote: Wait..saywhatnow? Quote: Quote: I'm a granddad! Yay! *ahem* I mean...Cody - you are so grounded! Quote: As the chart makes clear, there are at least four possible candidates for impregnating Maladucta. Kara and Kyza are 23rd century girls; they have the technology to knock someone up if they want to. And then there's Kyza's alternate-timeline male counterpart whom we discussed a short while ago.Wait. Who is Kyza? (EDIT AFTER POSTING AND SEARCHING): Oh yeah, UT#354 Zod! It was only a year ago! I have the most shocking memory. Wasn't Kyza a he though (well, at least he appeared to be in that story). The other son of Harper was someone Kinki cooked up in the vat with Al's DNA (at least - that was my initial thought - or maybe they did/do hook up again briefly at some point in the future/past). (EDIT POST SEARCHING AND REMEMBERING KYZA): Presumably he and Kyza are one and the same - so only three kids? I guess this explains your interest earlier! Sorry i think i got it wrong (or at least wrong as it was then). but let's see what you come up with anyway because it sounds like you've sorted it out. What kind of dad forgets his own son! Shocking isn't it! In any event, you're quite right, it could be any of them. No doubt you have it sorted already? Making it Cody is more torment for him than any of the others though. He'd want to do the right thing by the kid. Quote: Quote: Anyway. Godspeed Liu Xi Xian! Quote: Indeed.To the Nexus! And beyond. Funnily enough I was reading about a theory on what would happen if you went through a black hole earlier, and am now wondering if Liu Xi and Kahn will face spaghettification on their way though? Al B. will have several questions if/when they/she ever makes it out. Quote: Quote: Anyway - for this story are these dates correct?Quote: Quote: 1552: everybody is converging on the tomb of Visionatus Improbablus - or is it merely the place that will yet become the tomb of him at this point?Quote: Quote: 1622(?): Blow-Ye-The-Trumpets-In-Sion Aivry rescues Black Helen the Greenhag from the clutches of Justiciar Humbolt Vernold. Quote: I hope that was also 1552. I picked the year because it is easy for me to remember (the year my old school was founded). It may be 1553 at the Tomb by now, though, because Sion and Helen have had an awful lot of adventures and have even sailed the Atlantic.Ah well, i just went with one of your earlier replies in one of the threads that they were 150 years earlier than the other crew (who were noted in story as 1772 from memory). So maybe that should have been 220 years earlier? Quote: But if I got the years wrong, the timeslips in the tunnels award all the no-prizes.In which case you don't need to worry about that. Quote: Quote: A bit later still(?): The Improbable College first visit the tomb of Visionatus.Quote: Someone graffitied it around 330 years before present. Father Septimus' voyage took place in 1702 or thereabouts, as I recall without checking my notes. The College gained access to the Second Tome at that time, the one Vizh left in the Tomb earlier.Hmm... Quote: Quote: 1772(?): The Improbable College recruit Avrogadrus del Lune, Captain Biancaneve, and Fredrego the butchers boy. (Who are actually Al B., Yuki and Ham-Boy either living as ancestors or other-live versions of the same people). Quote: Quote: Quote: Probably not something we want to think about too much really. Quote: Except... comic books!Quote: Quote: Exactly. But as we both know the letter hacks are out there pondering all this and will write in. Quote: If six people are out there reading this I'll be mildly surprised.Well, it's not like we're trying to promote the board and drum up new readerships. Quote: Quote: Quote: Yes, the tunnel transition sent them back to meet Chokohontas, who is from that earlier period. So clearly they're all back in 1552-ish now.Quote: Quote: So Chokohontas and her beavers are from 1552. Quote: Yep. At that time, Sacred Island is an Indian Burial Ground, but already there is a fort and stockade over the Sound to the north.Fort York? Fort Gotham? ... Fort New Haarlem? Quote: Quote: Order and Chaos rule equally in the Parodyverse. One part gets sorted - another part jumps out to bamboozle just as quick. Quote: Indeed.It's like that whack-a-mole game, order will never completely prevail. Quote: Quote: I blame the Hooded Hood for a good part of it. And Xander the Improbable. Quote: Well, both play long games, that's for sure.Long and complex and interconnected. Are we sure they're not the same person? Have we ever seen them in the same room at the same time? Hmm suspicious. Quote: Quote: Quote: Indeed.But it became clear that was the last chapter of the issue, not of the story.Quote: Quote: The story is never going to end, you may as well accept that. Quote: I may need to do one big lump of a final issue to club it to death, if time allows. Tomorrow I have to take Rhi back to university, though.Nottingham? Not that far.  Quote: Quote: Quote: Yikes! You really are going to try to fit EVERYONE in. Quote: There is room for at least one more interferer with an unfinished plotline, anyhow.Quote: Quote: Was that the one just posted or is there more to come in #31?Quote: No, we have another player who has not previously appeared in this run of stories yet. And of course the mystery master-villain.I'm on the edge of my seat with anticipation! (In truth, that's not sarcasm). Quote: Quote: Quote: Has Rhiannon worked it out yet?Quote: Not all of it. And she still doesn't know who the big baddie behind it all is.Quote: Quote: Well then what hope is there for the rest of us!Quote: I'Ve read her tomorrow's chapter so now she knows.Was she shocked, surprised, fooled, relieved, something else? | |||||||
