All right! Hot squck-on-squck action!
makes wah-wah guitar noises with his mouth
Hm. I wonder if anyone would pay to see pictures of this on the internet…
Wait…you’re a guy?
All these revelations are too much for me to handle!
What the…
No, no, no, no, no, no, no! This is not what I designed the RoboSquck for!
:: sets remote control to “mangle” ::
Ok, now we’re getting somewhere.
:: watches feathers fly ::
Wow. :eek:
Poor girly Squck. Jeez Hal, deny the RoboSquck his only pleasure. Spoilsport.
Well, it’s either that or I’m an alarmingly hirsute lesbian…
Say, is the RoboSquck supposed to be making the sound of a blender set on “frappe?”
It’s going to explode! Run for your lives!
I am not going to confess to *anyone * that I had to go look up hirsute. For the rest of you who don’t want to confess, it means:
*Covered with hair; hairy. *
I’m surprised, definitely. I always took you as a slightly older woman - maybe in her 40’s. I had a whole image of you. Brown hair fading to gray. Three kids. Etc. And here you are, a rather cute guy who
IS ABOUT TO BE EATEN BY THE ROBOGOAT!
Meh, why bother. 
Run for your afterlives???
Oh, for the love of Zeus-- grabs Daithi Lacha out of the way, just as the RoboGoat crashes into the wall behind them with a loud clang and clatter
It’s coming after us-- as it gets to its feet, snorting and stamping
–and I don’t think it wants to eat us! :eek: Everybody run now!

In the interest of completeness, I should post the link to the previous initiation thread, in which, among other things, the Squck, Monster Bread, and the Vale of Dreams are introduced.

That thread in turn links to an earlier one.
All in all, it starts to build up a disturbing picture of… events… around here. I’m sure some enterprising young grad student will eventually seach the boards for other initianton threads and write a theses that wil in the Nobel Prize in Abnormal Psychology or Mad Science or something…

:: Sunspace regains consciousness and looks around. ::
AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!
Thank you for that most enlightening dissertation, Sunspace, now RUN! hauls him up and away from the path of the rampaging RoboGoat
OK, Kythereia, that’s how many times you’ve saved me, now?
My hero! titters
Oooo! RoboGoat is back! Looks like we’re gonna have a little three-way battle action…
Hmmm…waitasec. Since I’m controlling the RoboSquck (I actually built the remote with a port for a PS2 controller), who’s got the remote for the RoboGoat?
:: checks back pocket ::
Oh yeah…forgot that I picked that up. Well, I’ll just set him to “random destruction” and see who remains standing.
Now, back to the remote controlled fun!
Check it out… [up-up-square-up-triangle-down]…hehehe…now my little RoboSquck is in “fire-breathing” mode! 
: boldly steps out in front of the rampaging thingy and holds up a hand :
STOP!
I command you!
Careful, now…Kythereia might not appreciate you playing with h…oh…wait…
Hmm.
:: thinks back ::
Oh yeah!
:: sidles up to **Hal ** :: Hey, baby, whatchoo doin’ tonight? Wanna have some fun?
:: surreptitiously tries to pick **Hal’s ** pocket ::
I’m still here! I just really can’t keep up with all the posting yet! 
Aren’t you shackled to a chair? Oh dear. Someone had better let her out, I’m busy trying to get the remotes from Hal. I mean, trying to cozy up to Hal, of course. That hot stud.
And I’m just wondering what the hell happened. As far as I can tell, we’ve got at least two marriages, three divorces, a battle amongst the gods, and a couple of Genetically-Engineered Impossibilities as a result of this thread.
Oh… and, welcome, Improbability. You may be able to blank some of these memories out after a time.
