To cover the most unlikely possibilities, we're going to need between four and seven okapi, one of the proton packs from Ghostbusters, a copy machine, and something capable of sending objects back in time to shortly before the great Permian extinction.

I can provide the copier, so long as the situation doesn't require it to be one of those magic copiers that can make paper duplicates of sapient beings. I'm fresh out of those.

April 15, 1995 = Big One-Eight for SC. by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-15 16:08:00 UTC Reply

So, today I have officially turned eighteen.

Life is...

I'll get back to you on that.

Anyhow, this is also me announcing the end of my month-long silence, to anybody that was concerned at all about that.

That's... that's kind of it, really. My ability to creative is kinda shot right now, I just woke up.

Happy (belated due to time zones, stupid thing) birthday!

Here's a [Present]! Inside contains 1 [Food Item] of your choice, as well as 1 [Favourite Object] of which can be either a large plushie of undescribed appearance, or 1 [Party Blower] of a loud enough peeeep!

Man, 18. Now you're an adult. Feels good don't it?

As a gift, have yourself a grade-A Fanon Pinkie Pie Party. Fanon Pinkie Pie Parties are parties you will never, ever forget, as Pinkie is allowed to create the best party ever, because she is free from the shackles of little girl's programming.

Oh, crap. by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-16 09:19:00 UTC Reply

Uh, will this party potentially hurt in any way?

Only if you are allergic to fun! by Pinkie Pie on 2013-04-16 16:53:00 UTC Reply

But you can't be allergic to fun, because I see that you have fun all the time! Unless... Oh no! What if you are allergic to fun, but all of your friends love to have fun, so you deside you have to have fun to stay with your friends, and so you have been living 18 years with painfull fun for your friends' entertainment rather then your own!? I won't let this stand! Come on Gummy, we're going to make shure this party is so fun, Specs' body will have to stop regecting fun!

Have a box of salt, some holy water, and a silver knife. (I'm on a Supernatural binge, because I de-stress by watching scary-as-spit telly.)

Happy birthday!

To help in your quest to save Merry, I'm giving you a wall. A wall with Frenchmen manning it, very good for stopping English royalty!

Also, I have some birthday pie for you! It's better than cake because it is pie, and also, it's not a lie!

But what if they bring Germans? by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-16 00:02:00 UTC Reply

LOOKIN' AT YOU, COLONEL MORAN.

Here, have some... no, that's meatloaf, that's not good.
Um...
I had a present, but it escaped me.

Happy birthday anyway!

It's probably good that the present escaped... by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-15 21:45:00 UTC Reply

I can not claim responsibility for any horrible outcome which might have befallen the poor thing.

Considering it was probably sentient food, by Lily Winterwood on 2013-04-15 21:46:00 UTC Reply

we may now have unleashed the Son of Slorp onto the Board.

Oh. Crap. by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-15 21:47:00 UTC Reply

Anybody got a steel-wire net handy?

We've located your present by SeaTurtle... by Lily Winterwood on 2013-04-18 07:49:00 UTC Reply

The creature appears to be a mini-Slorp named Slop and needs to be captured as soon as possible.
I've got one. by Outhra on 2013-04-15 21:53:00 UTC Reply

It's one of those electrically-charged anti-burglar nets, though, and I don't know whether your "present" would be able to subsume objects like Slorp could. We should probably find that out before we accidentally give the escaped meat remnant chain-lightning powers.

Well, then it falls into RPG territory. by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-15 21:54:00 UTC Reply

And then I can send the RPG Bros. after it.

Why not just have the RPG Bros. carry the net? by Outhra on 2013-04-15 22:03:00 UTC Reply

Then, if the remnant starts to subsume the net, they can just pound on it or whatever they do before the net is fully absorbed. It would save time that way, and it would become much less likely that the remnant would rampage around with new lightning powers.

That's the problem. by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-15 22:09:00 UTC Reply

When was it ever easy and didn't involve collateral where the PPC is involved?

You're right. by Outhra on 2013-04-15 22:21:00 UTC Reply

I'm sure I can jury rig one. by SpecstacularSC on 2013-04-15 22:48:00 UTC Reply

I do, after all, have a +20 in Illogical Mechanics.

That gave me this dumb mental image... by Lily Winterwood on 2013-04-15 21:48:00 UTC Reply

...of a bunch of Boarders chasing after a blob of sentient food with butterfly nets.

[Enter Merry Brandybuck from this post, pursued by Queen Mary I of England]

Queen Mary I of England: The everlasting fires of Hell will consume thee and thy kind, Protestant ragamuffin!

Merry Brandybuck: I still don't know what you're talking about! I just wanted to know whose birthday it was!

Queen Mary I of England: If any birthdays are to be celebrated in this fair land, they will be ours and ours alone! Thy fate is not one of festivity, but of suffering, repentance, and demise!

Merry Brandybuck: But I'm not one of your Proddy-whatevers! I don't even know what you're talking about!

[Queen Mary stops]

Queen Mary I of England: ... you speak truth?

Merry Brandybuck: Yes! Really. Honestly. I'm not lying.

Queen Mary I of England: ...

Merry Brandybuck: ...

Queen Mary I of England: Then 'tis a godless heathen thou art! Fie on thee, Saracen knave, that defilest the Queen of England by thy very presence! We shall not rest until thy bones are ashes!

Merry Brandybuck: ... eep.
