Obviously, blanx, your first duty should be to write Fenris: The Origin Story!!
rummage, rummage, rummage
Now where did I leave my chisel and hammer, and stone tablets again?

I do believe, I do, I do!
Now, wring, you know that assertions of one’s belief in fairies, like all assertions of belief, belong in Great Debates!! ;j
(satisfied that for once, I made the ‘clean’ joke)
Fenris, earlier in the thread I accused you of offering jobs to posters so that they will support you in your quest.
Fenris for Cecil II
Brilliant strategy, that is.
Dang. I was going to nominate Rue DeDay for this slot.
Has anyone told Scylla about this yet?
ooh! oooh!
I volunteer my services as the cafeteria lady, if His Fenris-the-Metatron-ness would like. I’m a good cook – ask my husband – and I make really, really good cakes and cookies. I’d keep y’all well supplied as you feverishly churn out answers.
Pretty please?
Grr… stupid gainful employment interfering with my ability to properly authenticate the origin of Fenris and his progress towards assuming the mantle of Metatron to Cecil.
Rest assured, the origin story is coming. As yet, it includes vague, mystical references to comic books and Tron…
These Fenrisian duties are taxing. No wonder he wants to become Cecil II- it’s less work!

Ignore Polycarp, blanx-
Fenris hasn’t even tried to finish the Secret Origins of the Mods thing yet. I really don’t think you should have to pick up the slack yet.
The punk wants to fill in for Cecil, and won’t even throw me a maintenance job? Screw 'im.
BTW - Except in this case, no one should ever ignore Polycarp. He’s smart.
Exgineer: You can be chief bottle-washer, car-parker and janitor! And you can be #1 bone-getter!
blanx: It is up to the Teeming Millions to determine if you are Fenris II-worthy.
wring, blanx and Poly: Bwah-ha-ha! But would that mean that Scylla is Cap’n Hook and Rue is Smee?
stargazer: yer in, but you have to wear one of those hair-net thingies.
uh-oh. I just saw Exgineer’s most recent post: I have to retract my offer above until you retract your last post: No heretics in MY administration! Luckily, I’m a forgiving sort of Metatron.
Fenris, Cecil II
::Dons “Fenris for Cecil II” badge::
All hail!
and of course, the croc would plainly be Amish.
I hereby apologize to Fenris (the future Cecil II) for any offense I may have committed, and I also retract my previous statement, which was not intended to be critical of Fenris (the future Cecil II) in any way.
Really, it wasn’t.
And I apologize for bumping this thread, in case that was also the wrong thing to do.
May I have my job(s) back, please?
Exgineer, of course you are welcome to be Chief Engineer in Charge of Oiling the Hamster Treadmills. Clearly Jerry needs the help.
I refuse to carry the Peterpanization of this thread any further…but I think it’s obvious the whole thing is a croc.
Polycarp’s right again, as usual. Can’t we all agree to Barrie the Peterpanization of the thread?
Hi Fenris, remember me? Uh, you signed me on to be your “Milton Dork.”
Yeah.
So, anyway, uh, I was just wondering when you think we could expect to see our first paychecks for this whole new “Cecil II thing”?
I mean, it’s no big deal, but I was sorta countin on that sucker to be in my mailbox this past Friday, 'cause, well, you know, I bought a few new things. And, well, I may have already bounced a check. Or two. (The cable’s been out since Saturday, but that just might be a coincidence.)
Anyway, I guess if you could just let me know if Human Resources has all my necessary info.
I should probably stop payment on the Feltmaster 8200 if you don’t think I’ll have the check by – oh, say Wednesday afternoon.
Thanks again for everything. I don’t mean to be a burden; I imagine the check just got lost in the mail or something.
stv
P.S. I don’t know if this makes a difference, but I’ve got a Western Union about 35 miles from my house, and if it would be easier for payroll to just wire the cash my way, I got no problem with driving to pick it up.
Thanks again, buddy. Hope all is going well with you in your new position as Perfect Master…you did get that gig, didn’t you?
I suppose I could say something clever, like “let me get together with UncleBeer and we’ll design a new hamster-wheel,” but I’m not that smart.
The important thing is that Polycarp acknowledged my existance. This means I am somebody.
A) Rule #1: If Polycarp says it, it must be verified (because you always verify information, regardless of who it’s from[sup]1[/sup]), but you can also take comfort in knowing that it’ll always turn out to be reliable.
B) Rule #2: No checks. You’re doing this for the Greater Glory Of Cecil! We shan’t soil this discussion with filthy lucre. Now let us never speak of it again.
C) ** Exgineer** Apology accepted, you’re in. And yes, being noticed by Poly is proof that you “have made it”. Now get back to work redesigning those hampster treadmills!
D) This whole “Peter Pan” digression is designed to hook new readers, isn’t it?
Fenris, The Voice of Cecil!
Exgineer, I’m about done with the office space, so I could help you tinker with the hamster wheels. Wendya wanna start?
