Robby: I think this one's sufficiently hard enough. Okay, Wednesday then. If nobody gets it, you'll get the 50. If someone does get it before then, you'll get 25 as a consolation prize.

**Mandi sticks her head in.**

DumlaoX -- If you read this after 12, don't respond, but is the new episode going to be posted before midnight? (I'm hosting a prospective student, who unlike me hasn't had the experience of staying up til 3 am on a Sunday night!)

Gee, the TGS staff is cutting it close this week. 2 hours 15 minutes left to get the new story up before Monday hits, and then, I'll be upset. I won't talk about the party in this post, since this is bound to be one of the last posts here, if not THE last, so most people will miss it entirely and I'll probably have to retype the whole message anyway... Sigh... Coyote and Wilek, if you do read this, tell me and save me the trouble.

Coyote- 50 cybercookies? Ah man, that is NOT fair of you! If no one comes up with the answer by the end of the week can I say the answer and get them?

Wilek- It isn't my JOB to countdown the new TD eps, but since I was counting for myself anyway, I figured I'd take up the job. Besides, it makes me feel like I'm closer to the TGS staff, and maybe it'll look good on my application for season 3...

And I'm the one who brought up that Dragonheart is good listening music. It's got its dramatic moments, its peacful moments, actiony moments, and music from the gargoyles time period. Its good that way, and the best I can think of until Disney releases a Gargoyles soundtrack. Why HAVEN'T they done that anyway? The show has enough main themes to provide an entire CD... Theres the main theme, the romance theme, the wierd theme, the opening and closing credits...

Heather -- I agree, cool pic!

Coyote -- would you please be so kind as to send me the URL for the Fairlane story? I can't find it! And want to read it; great idea! (btw, it was Stephen King's Christine that made me like my name; before that, I didn't <g>)

Reminder -- Avalon Mists' holiday issue will be coming out in a few weeks; e-mail all submissions (poems, pics, fics, filks, etc.) to me asap! ; )

[Wilek, Miriam, Anoth, Forfexx, Raoul, the remaining Doom Commandos, the Dark Troopers, SJ, Frankie, and Dark Mage Wilek are in the Dark Star's bio-lab. No one's sure where Jake is; Teri's gone after him. There are several large, transparent tanks in the back of the room, full of the cure for the Dragon Virus mixed with the CV-1000 carrier virus. SJ dumps all of it into modified torpedoes, which launch and spread the cure all over the world. Wilek: "Whew, I'm glad we got that done before Traveler could mess it all up. It's finally over..." Just then Teri walks in. She looks rather perplexed and amused. "Guys, I found Jake. You're not gonna believe this." Everyone follows Teri to the armory, where Jake is jumping around attempting to eat a flock of flying nachos. W: "Oh, great."]

Heather> WOW! Great pic.

SJ> It's quite alright; you didn't know.

Robby> Tell Jim that if he starts that SW/ST screening without me, I will fully kill him. :) And the Dern Lot Boys? They're a filk band I made up to do a filk I wrote. My bass guitarist was Thailog, and we all know what *he's* gotten himself into. :) Even if he's willing to do that anymore, there's no guarantee that he'll be sober enough. (Jim's still keeping him drunk off his tail, I presume?) So...*you're* in charge of the daily messages of hope and hurt. Good luck, since some of the other room dwellers might harbor vendettas against you for teasing them so. Just ask Todd.

When someone mentioned that the Dragonheart soundtrack was good music to read TGS by, I immediately remembered that the Pendragon theme is pretty much taken from Dragonheart.

Doug> That creativity demon...yikes.

Coyote> Believe me, I'm not the sort to laugh at that kind of thing...although I do see it as an object lesson in the dangers of gambling.

[W: "Well, this was our next stop anyhow. Everyone, when the party ends and we go after Thailog and his Dark Jedi allies, we're gonna need some heavy artillery. Namely, this stuff. Miriam's organization has given us permission to take whatever we think we'll need. Now dig in!" Most of the members of the team run to the shelves and begin grabbing as much of the advanced weaponry as they can. Note to team members: Pretty much anything you can think of is here; feel free to give yourselves anything you like or even make things up. When everyone's done selecting their armaments, they leave the armory and board the Sentinel-class landing craft that the Dark Star staff has given them since they can't use the Falcon anymore.

**The screen lights up to reveal Coyote, now away from the poker table and pantless (he had to leave them to cover his winnings) dancing along with most of the other partiers, as Weird Al launches into "I Was Only Kidding." Jason is getting his groove thang on with Rosanna, Buick is doing his own little kind of doggie dance, and everyone's generally having a good time. Suddenly a loud screech is heard coming from the poker table. All eyes turn to see Demona streaking (literally) out of the room, wings tightly wrapped around her body.**

Hmm ... must have lost that skirt after all. **The music resumes from where it left off. Coyote begins dancing again, then turns toward the CR.**

Hey again, guys. Well, I've finally gotten away from the poker table, now we're trying to work our drinks off on the dance floor.

<"Hey there, tall, dark and pantless.">

Huh? **turns around and sees the inebriated Stephanie, staggering but smiling and dancing, tugging at his arm.**

<"Wanna boogie?">

Uhh ... okay, just one dance. Let me make some replies, all right?

**blank look** <"Okay.">

Good. Without further ado, here's some replies.

Kitainia: Before you have any concerns about Stephanie's welfare, let me assure you the *last* thing I would ever do is take advantage of a stone drunk woman. I've seen too many college girls get raped that way. And just so you know, my party is with you when you leave. We'll just need about a day to sleep the party off.

<"Arf!">

Well, everybody except Buick. Speaking of my party ... has anybody seen the Gearhead lately? Or Lina for that matter?

Doug: Twisted. Now that's something I would expect from Stephen King, if he ever did a "Christine" sequel. But I was still LMAO at the CD.
And I was thinking about what could possibly be possessing the Fairlane. There's a long list of suspects ... starting with just about anybody who's died before 1994. Maybe in a future installment we'll have it figured out. But you can expect the Fairlane to show up again in the future.

Ravyn: Put me down for 20 on a double knockout, followed by consumption of mass quantities of some kind of alcoholic beverage. ;) And thank you for not laughing (too loudly) at my humiliation.

Robby: Good alternate choice of artists. I'm sure most of the folks in here prefer Weird Al over Marvin Aday (50 cybercookies to whoever can identify who that is, and no, Robby, you can't answer: you alread know.).

***RP!!***

**Coyote and Stephanie are now dancing with the rest of the room, as Weird Al launches into "Phony Calls."**

Some party, huh?

<"Yeeeeeaaaaahhhhhh ..."> **giggling**

**The door to one of the upstairs guest rooms suddenly swings open. All eyes turn up to the balcony, where everyone sees the Gearhead, in his underwear, followed by ... Lina wrapped in a sheet?!**

WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON HERE?! What are you doing with my character wrapped in a sheet?!

<"Uh ... heh ...">

Ohhh boy, I'm comin' up there!

**Coyote sprints up the stairs, approaching the Gearhead and Lina as the screen winks off.**

PS: I will copy and repost this message if this is the last one of the week.

(Jim and Mare finally return to the party. Their hair is messed up, and their clothes seem a bit messed up. Rumors immediatley start flying about what they've been doing for the last few posts. Of course, most of the rumors are wrong.)

I normally try to avoid posting so close to my last one, especially when the room will soon be cleared, but there was a bit of info that had to be updated. Namely, the Timedancer countdown...

46 DAYS UNTIL TIMEDANCER SEASON 2! 45 IF YOU DON'T COUNT THE *THURSDAY* IT FALLS ON!

Coldstone- Actually, Doug asked about Bandit being immortal. I'm the one who brought it up in the first place, and was answering the question. I've seen every episode of the Real Adventures of Jonny Quest more than I care to count... Won't hold it against you, name mess ups happen a lot around here... And the bird's name was Haresh I think...

Duece- I actually have met Wierd Al in person, and the reason he gave me for his stuff taking so long is that he needs a good amount of stuff to parody when an album comes out. And since at the moment, all thats available is the Titanic song and Hanson, it isn't really his fault its taking so long for a new one. But it HAS been a while...

("So Jim, what HAVE you two been up to?"
"Well...")

HEATHER> Awesome pic! That's WAY better than I can do (remember my catgoyle doodle?)

DOUG re: STAR TREK: INSURRECTION> Oh, they show Riker w/out his beard. Actually, they show him getting it shaved off... but it's not him doing the shaving. hehehe.... I won't spoil the movie further. (I have a copy of the story... it's gonna whoop ass!)

ROBBY> You booked Weird Al? Hey, while he's there, ask him when his next CD is coming out. I've been waiting for two years since "Bad Hair Day".

COLDSTONE> We're waiting with baited breath. (I just had shrimp for lunch...)

I guess that's all... seeya tomorrow morning (probably @ lunch... I WILL read the story early).

TIMEDANCER> Again, I hope I don't go over my bounds here, but I have to make a comment on this (This is information is NOT set in stone, and is subject to change):

For all purposes, the premier of the first Timedancer episode is tenatively slated for January 7th, and each new TD ep will follow every thursday thereafter.

More info to follow, when it is made avalible.

Robby: Bandit became immortal on one of the new "The Real Adventures of Jonny Quest": it was when Hadji and Jonny returned to discover an ancient valley (something like Shangri-la) where a person could live forever by drinking water from the river therein. Trouble is, the valley would only appear for a short time every 500 years or so.

When they went to investigate, the Singh Sisters (twin daughters of Doctor Singh, Dr. Quest's long time nemisis) tried to steal a large quantity of the water before the valley disappeared. Jonny and crew foiled their plans, and everyone got out safely before being trapped in the valley for 500 years - including a falcon that Hadji now keeps as a pet - but, before they left, Bandit drank some of the water, thus becoming immortal.

Well, the story Spike and I wrote is premiering tomorrow! Hope it goes over well (is praying all day!), and everyone likes it!

Maintain and Check Six!

(Raphael and Brooklyn are still fighting. Its not too hard to guess who'll eventually win, remember what comment room this is. But elsewhere, people are shocked at who Jim has booked for music. "I was told it was gonna be meatloaf!" Nope, too controversial. "I heard it was gonna be Styx!" Nope, that come sail away song is too dang catchy. "I heard it was the beastie boys!" Acidentally booked the beach boys instead, and they're already attending as regular guests. "What about the Who?" Too many complications with the name. Skippy and Slappy once did a four minute sketch about that. "So who did he get?" At about that moment, the first few strains of "Achy Breaky Heart" start up. A groan can be heard surfacing. Jim has apparently booked Billy Ray Cirus.)

51 DAYS TILL THE NEW TIMEDANCER! 50 IF YOU DON'T COUNT THE ACTUAL TUESDAY! HOURS UNTIL THE NEW STORY...

SNL had a fun bit last night taken from ISKWYDLS, where two of the characters fell in love and went into song...

Wilek- Dern Lost Boys sounds like an interesting band. Perhaps they can assemble near the end of the party if things are going better for the band members later...

Heather- Trying is always the best thing to do, and you should never appologize for doing your best. Besides, the picture is pretty good. Sooo... Why aren't you at the party?

Jaden- Check around the party somewhere. I think Jim has set up an advanced screening of ST:I as well as SW:EO somewhere...

SJ- Frankie is suing Shelly for Slander? (Try saying THAT three times fast!)

Doug- Interesting creativity demon.
Jonny Quest's dog Bandit is immortal because at some point during the Real Adventures of Jonny Quest, he drank some magical water and now can't be killed, and he doesn't age. He's going to outlive Jonny!

Thought for the day...
"When people come in during the day, you ask them to sit down. When they came in late at night, you ask them to sit up. I'm trying to figure out when the two switch off, and what you do inbetween." -Victor Borge

(Most of the guests are annoyed, I mean, Billy Ray Sirus? They start looking for Jim to get an exlanation, but again, he and Mare have been missing for about four posts now. And suddenly, the audience is very relieved when they hear the odd lyrics... "You can torture me, with Donny and Marie, You can play some Barry Mannilow, Or you can play some shlock, like New Kids on the Block, or any village people song you know! But mister DJ please, I'm begging on my knees, I just can't take no more of Billy Ray!" The audience is relieved. It is NOT Billy Ray Cirus, but WIERD AL YANKOVITCH! Who else would sing at a party like this? Off in the distance, a small hobbit is attacking a dragon. "DIE SMOG!" "I'm not Smog! I'm Draco!" The hobit persists until a hand comes over his shoulder, and he sees James Bond. "I wouldn't be hurting that dragon if I were you," comes out the cool voice of Sean COnnery, "I happen to like him.")

**Shawn Michaels and Ravyn are sitting at a table, sipping on the punch. Following Coyote's advice, Rav has kept Shawn away from the poker game, but they've started placing bets on the fight between Brooklyn and Raphael. "Ten bucks on Brook." Ravyn says, and Shawn laughs. "Okay, fifteen on Raph," he says with a smile. From a balcony, Alex Wonder looks on, visibly 'tipsy' and throwing back shots of spiked punch like there's no tomorrow. Ravyn turns to address the room.**

SJ> *HBK hears SJ's 'two words' and stands up. "Oh, yeah?" he challenges, "well, I got two words for you..."*

Coyote> *Rav grins and tries not to laugh*

Doug> *laughs* I like the "Fairlane" idea...and I'd _love_ to see the look on Goliath's face...;) Also, if you want, me & Alex can accompany you on any mission. *Alex laughs loudly in the background* Ah, ignore him...I'd better go make sure he doesn't have any more of that punch...

**Ravyn walks up to where Alex is slumped against the wall, ready to pass out. "C'mon, man," Rav says, "no more punch for you, okay?" Ravyn sits down with the drunken garg and the party continues on...**

**The screen comes on. A large faculty meeting is going on at Highland High. Mr. MacVicker, the principal, is nervously wobbling back and forth as he speaks. "Our students are all vanishing," he whines to Buzzcut, Van Dreissen, Mr. Stevenson, and the rest. "I..I heard a rumor they've all joined some new cult." "Well, they better come back soon," Stevenson the math teacher says. "We're behind enough as it is." Suddenly Borgis and Butt-Borg break into the room, the former blowing away the Spanish and science teachers with his arm-laser-guns. "You dumbass," Butt-Borg yells. "We can't ass-im-uh-late those two now!" "Uh, oops." "Beavis and Butthead?" Van Dreissen asks. "What's the matter with you guys?" "We are here to make you all our minions," Butt-Borg says. "To help Master Guod take over the world. The streets will flow with the blood of those who are against us. Huh huh huh." "Uh," the hippie teacher asks. "Can you calm down, okay? And maybe we should call the police?" The two Borg-morons look at each other, extend the assimilation tools, then laugh as they advance on the faculty of Highland High.**

**The screen changes back to Jim's party, where Tricia has just gotten out of the poker game and is now dancing (she's still in her underwear and nothing else) to Tom Petty's "Mary Jane." Her jerk ex-boyfriend Josh Maness walks up to her, obviously very drunk, and sports a lewd grin. "Geez, Lindi," he laughs, using Tricia's first name. "Too bad I never got to see you like this. Can I see more?" Tricia growls and delivers a psychokinetically charged slap to the guy's face that gives him a heart attack with its strength. Josh falls to the floor dead, and the Ravens' psychic wipes her hand free of blood. Doug walks up to her, followed by Shenzi. "Dispose of that," Doug orders the caterer, who collects the body and moves off. Doug then turns to Trish. "Having fun?" She nods. "Until he showed up." "Yeah, I guessed that," Doug says. "Listen, we need to be leaving soon. This is great, but we have work to do, and we can party more after Thailog and company are totally and completely stopped. I'm collecting everyone and telling them to go upstairs and get some rest. After that's over, we're all leaving for the circus, okay?" Tricia looks like she agrees. "Can't I just stay down here a while longer, though?" she asks. "You might need my help to tear Jammer Jim away from his conquest attempts." "Right," Doug sighs. "Fine, do whatever. Use your best judgement. Just remember, Kitainia and I are going to sleep as soon as we tell everyone so. When we wake up, we get some breakfast, pack up, and then it's time to go. You should all be well-rested, and fully clothed, by then." "You got it," Tricia nods again, platonically pecking him on the cheek. Doug flashes her a grin and moves on to face the CR.**

Note to Coyote, Kyryn, Jaden, and their crews: Kitainia and I have pretty much stated our upcoming plans for what we will do next. If you guys want to come along with us, stay here, or go your own way, it's your own choice. The bikers and Ravens will all be staying with us, as will Agent Ripowski. Don't worry, though, we all plan to do a few more interesting things at the party before we leave.

Coyote again: Liked your new fic. (Spoiler Warnings.) Fairlane is a nice new comic relief good guy. Nice character development on Pontiac and Lex. Too bad Fairlane isn't really posessed by Elisa, though. I had this creativity demon I should share after reading part 23:

<The Fairlane has corned a certain large lavendar gargoyle against the wall of the Eyrie Building's garage. "Drive me, Goliath," it purrs in Elisa's voice. "Please..." "Elisa?" Goliath asks, clearly in shock.>

Comments on that? <grin> (Spoilers End.) Thanks for sending the group lists. Sounds like Lisa, Changeling, and Lillith are all in good groups, though I am somewhat concerned about what sparks might fly between Liberty, Changeling, and Graeme. Oh well, "Through the Ages," will soon be done, and then all my readers will get some idea of what MIGHT occur. :) Thanks also for letting us know Blaqthourne is on his way.

Heather: Nice pic of your African clan. Glad you are taking Deuce's suggestion about your clan. I think it is the best so far.

"Enemy of the State" Spoilers: Saw it this afternoon. Nice film. Will Smith did an Oscar-worthy preformance, Jon Voight was a good villain again, and Gene Hackman was nice too. The movie was both funny, interesting, and action-packed. A definite 10/10. The technology in there was nice, too. I liked all the surveillance gear they had. (Yes, the Illuminati of my fanfic universe has all of it and more.) Also saw "Meet Joe Black" again today, that is a wonderful film. Hopkins and Pitt both did Oscar-worthy, well-acted, and hilarious preformances, I liked the entire cast in their roles, and the dialogue and plot was well worth the movie's length. The biggest surprise of that movie, though, was Claire Furlani. She acted well in her role and also delivered a good preformance, when I was just expecting her to be a basic pretty face. Kudos to her. The end scene with her and Pitt, as well as the part where Pitt tells Hopkins and the bad guy he's an IRS agent, were my favorite scenes. :) Both these films I am definitely buying when they come out on tape.

Other movies I plan to see (and comment on in here): Prince of Egypt, You've Got Mail, Star Trek: Insurrection (in which I really hope they're not going to show Riker without his beard), The Faculty (saw its trailer today, it looks like a great X-mas gift from the makers of Dusk Till Dawn and Scream. Not only that, it's set in this town.), Civil Action, and of course Star Wars Episode 1 (saw the trailer for that today, too. It looks very interesting, to say the least). Looking forward to them all.

Robby: Jonny Quest's dog is immortal? I did not know that. Mind please sharing how it happened if you do?

That's all for now, I'll be back tomorrow after I read the new ep. G'Night!
**Doug walks on to the rodeo, which has by now gone on to its horse-racing event. Doug puts a hand on his elementary-school teacher and Ravens' wizard Lathrop's shoulder. Lathrop watches the horses cross the finish line, then turns around. "Rats," he says. "I had a bet on the one that almost won by a nose." "Sorry," Doug replies. "Look, we need to start calming down the fun and go upstairs to rest. We have a very big task ahead." "You're right, of course," Lathrop says. "Hopefully, all our collective strengths will be enough to get us through." Doug nods in agreement. "I'm pretty sure they will."**

**The screen changes to a small house in Highland, where an elderly bald man is answering his door. "Aren't you two the kids who stole my credit card, messed up my camper, ruined my garage sale, tore up my lawn, and made off with the Veterans' Hall's tank?" Tom Anderson asks, recognizing the two standing there. "That was two other kids, sir," Borgis says. "We're here to ass-im-uh-late you," adds his counterpart Butt-Borg. "What?" Anderson questions in shock, just as the screen goes blank. To be continued next time.**

**Sevarius Jr. is still on the Falcon, standing by and watching as Wilek and the Dark Star officials talk.

"You see, Frankie? I knew we'd figure out a cure for the Dragon Virus. Dragon blood as a cure--that's brilliant!"***

Wilek: Sorry about the teasing, honest. I was being my usual smart-ass self. Didn't know you were sensitive about such things, and I'm sorry.

Jaden: In the new prequels, we may just get to see the Sith War...I hope. Still, it's gonna rock!

Rapists: I read a torture technique once. Prisoners took over a jail, then they got a blowtorch and...well, burned off the gaurd's....you know. That HAS to be the worst.

Adam Sandler Fans: Billy Madison is (or was, depending on your time zone) on ABC tonight. "Shampoo is better! No, conditioner is better!" Funny stuff!

Cryway: I don't know, I'm lookin' forward to see what James and the boys do with Seger.

Geocities: My page is on Geocities. So far I haven't had any problems......so far. Plus I haven't updated it in about 3 months.

Zath: You're reading Frankenstein? Frankie would like to say something about that. Frankie?
*Frankenstein's Monster steps up.*
<Yeah, look: It's mainly a bunch of lies. Yep. I never killed anybody. I'm suing the Shelley estate for slander even today.>
Thanks, Frankie.

Coyote: Don't feel too bad that they laughed when your pants hit the floor....I mean, that's never happened to me but I can sympathize ;)

Ravyn: So, HBK is at your party, huh? Maybe when I drop in, I can have Stone Cold himself make a cameo. As for Shawn, I just got 2 words for you, pal: S....... IT!

**Sevarius Jr. turns to Frankenstein's Monster, who's standing beside him.

"Well, Frank, it looks as if everything's going okay with Wilek and those New Republic folks. Pretty soon, we'll be groovin' at the party!"
<Yeah. And I got something that'll make you want to get there all the sooner.>
"What do you mean?"
<Well, why'll you were in there getting some dragon blood from Draco, I sneaked in the party.>
"You're kidding! What'd you see?"
<You know how Demona was playing strip poker?>
"Yeah. And winning, dagnabit."
<Well, let's just say she lost a hand...>
Frankie pulls out some polaroids from his pocket, and shows them to SJ, who's eyes begin to grow as big as an anime characters (yes, that big).
"HOLY MARY, MOTHER OF GOD!!!!"
<Yeah, who knew she had a mole there?>

**The screen lights up, revealing the party getting wilder and wilder (not in the least bit toned down by Mr. Michaels' appearance!). Most of the male partiers have gravitated toward the strip poker game, as most of the players have lost most of their clothes. Senator Thurmond has been taken to the hospital, replaced (eagerly) by former Senator Bob Packwood. The cause of Sen. Thurmond's heart attack has not left, though: Demona continues to play, despite having lost her top.**

Okay, the deal's coming to me. Where are we now? **looks over the players at the table** Well, I think this will be our last hand, as I believe it is best to get out while you're ahead. Wouldn't you agree, Demona?

<"Ahhhh, shaddup and deal.">

Okay, it's your nudity. I'll make some replies while I shuffle and deal.

Interesting happenings: Those in here who frequent the other room, I had the distinct pleasure of having lunch today with Blaqthourne (without Crimson Fury), discussing all things Gargs and looking over his pictures from Gathering '97. Fun was had all around ... not to mention shrimp and frog legs (one of my guilty pleasures, I must confess!). Doug, Kitainia: he's moving to Austin within the next few months, if I recall right, just to give you guys a heads-up.

Anyway, FS: we're hoping to get together with you and LM sometime before he leaves, just thought I'd pass that along.

"Fairlane": Thanks for the compliments, guys! After reading through it (WARNING, SPOILERS), I did discover the similarities between the story and "Christine." Now I am a fairly well-read Stephen King fan, but to be honest, "Christine" was furthest from my mind when I wrote it. I was actually thinking about how that car was itself kind of like a character in the show: I mean honestly, that car would be a collector's item. Most of the folks I know of in Michigan who own '58 Fairlanes only bring them out for car shows and the Woodward Dream Cruise. It just struck me as odd when I first saw the show that Elisa would be driving a car that old, when it sees so much action.
From that evolved the idea that maybe there was something more to Elisa's Fairlane than met the eye. And in the grand tradition of KITT and Herbie, out evolved a possessed car that was lonely until Pontiac started fixing it up. (BTW, Traveler, for now the Fairlane is androgynous, until the nature of the spirit possessing it is known.)
And as far as character development on Pontiac goes ... well, let's see, I tried to show two major pieces of her personality; she's a certified mechanic and to some extent a thrillseeker. (END SPOILERS. YOU CAN LOOK NOW!)

Kitainia: Just sent you the team lists for both yourself and for Changeling and Lilith for Doug.

Doug: See above.

Heather: That might work. And a British, blonde Xena ... suddenly I have the overwhelming image of Finola Hughes in a leather bustier and bronze armor kicking serious Peloponnesian @$$. ;) (J/k)

Ravyn: Shawn Michaels, huh? Well, just one request: try to keep him away from the poker table. I think Demona's pride is bruised enough without having him come over.

<"HEY!">

No offense.

Heather again: Now that I've read Deuce's suggestion, I say go with it. It works best with what you want to do, I think.

Spike: Why do I suddenly have the image of the "Twister" episode of "Beavis and Butt-Head" when you talk about flying nachos? ;) Sounds like it's gonna be a winner.

Random weirdness for the day: While I was writing the above RP about Demona, I happened to have the most recent issue of Yahoo! Internet Life in front of me (with Marina Sirtis' photo on the cover, wearing a snakeskin outfit.). Now my mind's warped. **small, tiny voice** heeeellllllp meeeeeeeee .....

****RP!!****

**Coyote looks over his hand, then the rest of the players. Jaden has offered his pants for $100. Rosanna's offered her tunic (uh oh!!!!!). Even scarier, though: Demona's offered her skirt (quadruple uh-oh!!!).**

Okay, what's happening?

<"Call." "Out." "Call." "Call." "Out." "Out." "Not for me.">

Okay, and that leaves me to call. What have we got?

**Rosanna drops her hand.** <"Straight, nine to king.">

Verrry nice. Jaden?

**Jaden's whimpering. His head drops to the table as he drops his hand: two pair, queens high.**

Aww, too bad. Well, howzabout you?

**Demona drops her hand. It's the same as Rosanna's: straight, nine to king.**

Ahh, well. So much for my lucky streak. Aces high two pair. **Coyote drops his hand.** And with that, I believe I will call it a night on the poker. Thank you, ladies and Senators.

**Coyote stands up, just as his pants hit the floor. Everyone at the table is laughing as the screen winks off.**

(Brooklyn and Raphael are now in a vicious fist fight. "Your cartoon sucked!" Brooklyn yells at the turtle. "Your cartoon only lasted three years!" Raphael retorts. Shawn Michaels asks, "Should we stop them?" At this point, a familiar looking Ferangi speaks up. "Naah, this is entertainment. Care to place a few bets on the winner? Play dabo perhaps?" Quark gives a pointy toothed smile.)

Spike- Ohay, the flying nachos teaser has got my interest.

Coyote- I finally finished all your stories off. Good stuff, can't wait to see how it all ends.

Kitania- Remember, its a mansion, there's plenty of guest rooms. Geez, I wonder where Draco is going to sleep though. He's kinda big...

Deuce- I don't know why Inspector Clouseau is at the party. You ask him.

Wilek- Nachos, nachos, nachos... Oh no, not again...

(Somewhere else at the party, possibly at the part with the rides, all the immortals at the party are meeting each other. Macbeth, Demona, various members of the Highlander cast, and Jonny Quest's dog Bandit. Would be an interesting encounter if anyone paid some attention to it. But, most people are paying attention to the band which has just arrived. "Jim actually booked this for the music?" Someone asks incrediously. Unfortunatley, Jim is nowhere to be seen, he is STILL off with Mare doing something. Anyone care to guess what?)

[Wilek, Miriam, Jake, Teri, Anoth, Forfexx, Raoul, the remaining Doom Commandos, the Dark Troopers, SJ, Frankie, and Dark Mage Wilek are in the Falcon in Earth orbit, about to dock with the Dark Star. W: "Alright everyone, here's the plan one last time (so I won't forget it ^_^ ): We take care of things here, then get some armament for later, then go back for SJ's fighter, then attend the party. When that's over, we'll make some replacement Doom Commandoes and continue trying to sever Thailog's connections to the Dark Jedi Order. Oh, and Traveler? Look, I would have devoted a lot of time and energy to finding a cure for your virus even if there weren't a deadly version. I'm sick of having to deal with the stupid thing. Friends just don't *do* this to friends. By the way, we found out that your version and the deadly one weren't so different after all. It seems that the annoying version would have degenerated into the deadly one anyhow; that degradation was simply artificially accelerated, probably by Thailog's forces at Area 51. Fleur and SJ have determined that making a stable, non-deadly version is impossible. And you think *you're* on the outs with the Republic? I just pray that no one says my name in front of the New Rep ambassadors. The last Wilek Nereus they tripped over was an Imperial demented psychotic lunatic who implanted gut-eating worms in people just to see what would happen." The Falcon enters the docking bay.]

Jaden> I agree about a Sith War movie. Rockin'!

Ravyn> <<Uh-oh, what's _that_ mean? ;)>> Well, I'll tell you this much: the plan was kind of inspired by the TGS ep "Two". In other words, you probably won't come out of it looking like Freddy Krueger.

Heather> Well, what I would do for the animal transformation thing is: When they're hurt, it heals when they turn back to gargoyles, and vice versa. Of course, Deuce's idea is better...

Spike> Flying nachos? Oh no, another virus...nachos, nachos, nachos, nachos, nachos, nachos,..good thing it'll be gone in two days...

[The Falcon docks with the Dark Star. The airlock opens to reveal several New Republic officials and Dark Star stormtroopers. Wilek and the officials exchange greetings, then Wilek gets down to business: "I'm here to transfer custody of the Millenium Falcon and the two droids therein to whoever owns them now. As for the bodies of Han Solo and Chewbacca, Miriam here can provide pickup coordinates. I can officially say that no Earth government was responsible for their deaths, and we apologize for this senseless tragedy. By the way, R2 contains a sample of a deadly virus that was put there for safekeeping; please destroy the sample, preferably by throwing it into a black hole. Now, if there's nothing further, there's an emergency situation that requires our attention." The team runs to the Dark Star's bio-lab. To be continued...]

HEATHER> "The offer" was just that I'm always here to listen, if you need to vent. Oh, and I have an awesome idea for your gargs: it's based on my RP character. You can use freely. Your gargoyles can be flesh or stone (voluntary shift), unless they choose to be stone by day, in which case they change to flesh at sunset. While they are flesh, they can become animal or garg w/ just a thought.

SPIKE> Nachos? *shakes head* You're weird. But still my fave author. :-)

**The screen comes on. A small kid with long blonde hair wearing an "I love unicorns" T-shirt is answering his doorbell. "Beavis and Butt-head?" Stuart asks, looking at the two Borg-drones waiting for him. "What's with all the weird black stuff you got on?" "We have come to ass-im-uh-late you, Stuart," barks Borgis. "We have already done it to Todd and his gang, now we will do it to you. Heh heh heh." "Um, guys?" the suddenly panicked Stuart whines. "Are you okay?" "Yes, Stuart," Butt-Borg intones, extending some assimilation tentacles his way. "Uh, like, be not afraid. It is better than scoring. Huh huh huh." "But, Butt-Borg, we never have scored!" Borgis roars, accompanying Stuart's loud scream, as the screen changes to the party at Jim's house.**

**There, Kitainia has just sunk the last pool ball when a big guy with long brown hair and mustache (he looks like Sturm Brightblade in jeans, black leather, and a Metallica T-shirt) comes up behind her. "Yo, Lis," Cobra MacTaggart grins, slapping her on the back with the arm that bears his namesake in a tatoo. "What's up?" "Nothing much," Kitainia replies, answering Cobra's slap with a high-five. "The letter explained our situation. You ready to help?" "Everyone's here," Cobra grins. "But can we please have a little fun first? This is the best party to which we've ever been!" "Go right ahead," Doug says from the other side of the table. "We have to get Tricia to put her clothes back on, sober up Stephanie, and get everyone else to finish what they're doing before we can leave. Plus, we all have to take a nap before we head out. Saving the world is quite fatiguing work." Cobra smiles. "Thanks!" he then says. "We'll see you around. I'll make sure everyone doesn't have too much fun." He waves and walks off. Kitainia nods at Doug, then turns to face the CR.**

Kyryn and Fleur: I will miss y'all as well. Get back soon please.

Wilek: You found a Dragons virus vaccine? Great! Congratulations! Now hurry up and distribute it before that escaped lab mouse can infect anyone else! Thanks fro bringing the bikers over on your way.

Traveler: Thanks for the Mech operations manual. Gubio was looking for that. He and his fellow would-be modifiers are so far doing well.

Coyote: (Spoiler Warning!) Just got done with your latest. Nice job. I liked the character development on Lex and Pontiac. I liked the car, too. It's good to have Christine's (as in Stephen King's creation, not Ms. Morgan) good counterpart on your side. Wonder exactly whose spirit is posessing that car. Is it Elisa's? And does Coyote the Trickster have anything to do with it getting there? <grin> Anyway, good job once more! Looking forward to the next part! (Spoilers End.) BTW, I know you don't have your scanner hooked up yet, so you can't show us any more pics. But can you at least tell me who else will be in my group? If not yet, that is okay, but I am really dying to know.

Robby: Thanks for the countdown. I will be waiting patiently for Timedancer to begin. About the party, the Ravens, the bikers, Janice, Doug, and myself will only be staying a little while longer. We have work to do in town this is distracting us from, and we have to go do it. But don't worry, we're going to stay in here at least long enough to do a few more things and then sleep off all the fun (the fact that we're both going off-line for the Thanksgiving weekend should nicely cover the sleep period). You do have guest rooms where we can do that, right? <grin>

Oh, and just so you know, the following bad guys are definitely NOT at the party:
1) Guod and Asil. They want to save their partying energy for when they win, as if they will.
2) Borgis, Butt-Borg, and their growing crew of assimilated supporting cast members. They have too much other work on their minds.
3) The Fundamentalist Extreme's members. Partying, dancing, drinking, and just about everything else that's going on here is seen as sinful and evil in their insanely corrupt and misguided eyes.
4) Masked Magician. But, as you can see if you look down the page, he just left.
Anyone else is fair game for the partygoers' laughs (just please don't start killing them off, we have plans for them all). Even the bad hacker Tyl might be here somewhere. Enjoy!

Waiting eagerly for the new episode tomorrow night. Now, if you'll excuse me, Doug and I are off to see "Enemy of the State." Later all!
**Kitainia notices three people coming in, and rushes to the men's room. "Stephanie!" she shouts, helping her sick-looking sister to her feet. "They're here!!" "Who's here?" Stephanie moans, her head waving back and forth. "Methos and the McLeods! Didn't you always want to meet them?" "Really?" Stephanie crows, suddenly ecstatic. "Gangway!!" She leaps up and runs off, nearly crashing into the three Highlander stars. "Connor! Duncan! Methos!" she squeals in esctasy at them. "Hello!" Then she falls into Methos's arms and throws up all over his coat. Methos, looking disgusted, turns to the McLeods. "Remind me again why we came here," he says. Kitainia, who has been watching the whole thing, shakes her head slowly and grins. "If doing that doesn't get her to stop drinking, I don't know what will."**

**Meanwhile, back in Highland, Borgis and Butt-Borg, now joined by the assimilated Stuart and Todd's gang, are getting ready to leave. "Let's get some more muscle, Butt-Borg," Borgis suggests. "Earl and Buzzcut would be great additions to our side!" "Yeah," Butt-Borg laughs along, his telescopic eyes widening in joy. "And Mr. Van Dreissen, who like Stuart, will no longer be a wuss once he is ass-im-uh-lated. On to Highland High. Huh huh huh." They pile into their tank, Leroy's car, and Todd's car as the image fades. To be continued next time.**

**The party at Robby's mansion in San Antonio is still in full swing as a figure glides in through one of the large windows. The gargoyle, Alex Wonder, lands, letting Ravyn out of his arms so she can address the party-goers.**
Hey, everybody! Thought I'd join the fun! Alex flew all last night so we could get here and party! (Although try to keep me away from the spiked punch; I have a low alcohol tolerance. *wink*)

Coyote> GREAT job on the new story! It was neat to see the ol' Fairlane back in action. Maybe Elisa can still fight with the clan after all...:) Excellent job!

**RP!**

**Alex comes up and taps Ravyn on the shoulder. He whispers something in her ear, and Ravyn immediately runs toward the door. At the door is San Antonio's own Heartbreak Kid, the sexy Shawn Michaels! (click on my name to see some pics of him. *grin*) Apparently, he heard about the party and decided he had to make an appearance. Ravyn's jaw drops at the sight of Shawn, and she nearly faints. Good ol' Shawn is there to catch her, though! ;) Arm-in-arm, Ravyn and Shawn tour the mansion to say hi to everyone. As they walk off, a stunned Alex Wonder watches, a hint of jealousy showing in his blue eyes...**

(Brooklyn glares at the turtles. "And WHAT are you doing here?" He is clearly angry. "Um, we were invited?" one of the creatures suggests.)

52 DAYS TILL TIMEDANCER SEASON 2. OR 51 IF YOU DON'T COUNT THE ACTUAL TUESDAY ITSELF.

Deuce- The rapist tortures are nastier than the Lawyer deaths because the rapists deserve it. The Lawyer only got killed because we could kill him repeatedly, not because we didn't like him.

Jaden- I'll handle the Timedancer countdown. You might take it a bit too far... Look, I'm even providing double counts depending on personal preferance!

Traveler-Nother big post from you. What else is new?

The Party- This thing is going to go until you people say otherwise. So keep on having fun, and when it has been almost unanimously decided that it needs to end, I'll handle the closing ceremonies. This can go on for a few more weeks if you guys want it to. It seems like everyone is having a good time, I know I would be having fun if Jim would let me attend. And think, this party was only being thrown because the RPers were visiting San Antonio! Wait until theres a REAL event to celebrate...

(Brooklyn looks around to Jim for confirmation on this. But Jim and Mare have been missing for the last few hours after she dragged him off somewhere. So Brooklyn approaches the security guard. The guard's reply? "The turtles are fuels!" "Fuels?" "Yes, you know! A fuel is a stupid person." "Oh, you mean fools." "That is what I said!")

When you think about it, I had a hand in almost wipeing out all life on Earth...Kick @$$!!! *takes out a small plastic card and colors in a square on it* One more time and I win a toster oven! *hehehehahaha* *Fleur and everyone else on the bridge looks at him with murder in their eyes* Traveler: What?! What did I say?! Oh...that "all life on Earth thing", right... Anywho, just who did mutate my creation? Where are we going that's so important that we have to miss Jim's party? And where did that little rolling mini-fridge go to? I put some left over pizza, pepsi, and the samples of the deadly version of the virus in there. You know the one I'm talking about, it was right next to that anoying gold-colored droid...Uh oh. Fleur: Wait a minute, the party's a good idea, but shouldn't you be going with SJ and Wilek to the Dark Star to help with the virus? Traveler: Um, no. You see the New Republic and I arn't exactaly the best of friends. I mean they really can't do anything about me but, it's best that when Wilek is smoothing things over with the Republic reps. that I'm not there. Fleur*curious*: And why would that be? Traveler: Lemme put it this way, back in the "good old days", the Emperior, Vader, and I would have an occaional Parchessie game. Fleur: Ah, alright... Traveler: Except we used rebel spies as the game pieces, and well, we never used the same game pieces twice if you catch my drift. Fleur: Remind me again why you're on our side? Traveler: I'm board, this is fun, and this dimentional Earth happens to be one of the ones that I have a summer place on. Besides that, things are a lot more entertaining with Bill Clinton around, don't you agree? *the screen fades out as the war ship reverses its' course, and starts to gead back to the party.**

>AotN- I released the dragon virus in the CR after I had read the first episode of the 2nd season. It was started because the TGS had decided to bring (to some as yet unknown degree) Dragons into the main story line. (Excluding that one Pendragon episode, which was rather good BTW) Anyway I just started doing that dragon thing in my posts, and sure enough, someone else caught it. And it just spread from there.>:)

>Coyote the Bando- Just read you're latest, to tell you the truth I was wondering what Pontiac was doing all this time. I had assumed she was fighting with the rest of them. Oh well, question answered. Loved the scene where the car takes them for a ride through the battle.>:) BTW, are we going to find out how the car became posessed? And what does this mean for WCC, when Cyrway's Artmis comes to town? If the Ford has a male personality is it going to "take a liking" to her? *hehehehe*

Oh well, either way you guys are going to need this. *a portal opens before them and the mech they are working on. Out of it drops an owner's manual for the Timber Wolf mech.* Things should go alot smoother with those modifications now.

Heather: Just had an idea to solve your dilemma ... what about some kind of condition, or spell, or whatever that makes their gargoyle biorhythms run in reverse (i.e. has them awaken at dawn and turn to stone at sunset)? Okay, that doesn't leave a lot of room for normal interaction with other gargs, but it does allow them to protect during the day. Or maybe their biorhythms run in reverse, but they can snap themselves out of stone sleep at will?

Wilek: Thanks for the comments!

**Jaden stumbles out of bathroom with a dazed look on his face. Only two questions were coming to his mind as he made his way back to the party. 1)What was he thinking when he drank that bottle of floor cleaner, and 2) who was that woman in the stall next to him? "One thinks for sure," he said returning to the party. "I'm never going to do anything that stupid again...oooo a poker game." Screen goes black**

Timedancer countdown: 52 days, 3 hours, 15 minutes, 14 seconds. 52 days, 3 hours, 15 minutes, 15 seconds. 52 days, 3 hours, 15, minutes...AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Someone stop me!!!!

[Wilek, Miriam, Jake, Teri, Anoth, Forfexx, Raoul, the remaining Doom Commandos, the Dark Troopers, Frankie, and Dark Mage Wilek are in the Millennium Falcon, which is parked on Jim Noying's front lawn with Fleur's Bird Of Prey. The bikers are in the mansion waiting for the Ravens to pick them up, TRC's at the party, and SJ's in there too... Wilek: "So, Traveler's Dragon Virus isn't the one that was killing us...but they're so similar that when we find a way to cure one, we'll cure the other too. Anyhow, SJ said that he and Fleur and Traveler discovered that there was something in there they needed--" Wilek is interrupted by an earth-shattering roar from within the mansion. SJ runs out holding a huge hypodermic needle full of a reddish liquid. He runs onto the Falcon. SJ: "Get us outta here! He's REALLY ticked off!" W: "Who?" Draco the dragon then stalks out of the mansion and heads for the ships, which take off and manage to outfly him. Draco gives up and heads back to the party. W: "SJ, what was that all about?" SJ: "We found out that dragon blood contains a magically-enhanced protein that acts as an antibody against both forms of the Dragon Virus! That's why direct exposure to them in the upcoming TGS dragon war story would have cured us! We're saved!"]

Rape Punishments> Oh...How 'bout leaving them naked at the South Pole? Or using Middle Ages-style thumbscrews on a different part of the body than the thumb? Or perhaps spraying them with some form of acid. Maybe letting a rat eat through their abdomen. Infecting them with some deadly but non-contagious disease? Letting a face-hugger loose near them (Raoul's not a facehugger BTW, he's a fully grown xenomorph)?

SJ> The next person who says anything like that to me about my mistake will get one or more of the above punishments. In RP and just maybe in RL. I am VERY VINDICTIVE about that kind of thing. The CR is NOT the place for teasing someone just because of an honest mistake. That can be very hurtful, even in jest.

Kyryn> I was just thinking that about Wavers and Seri. Where are they? Where have they been?

Coyote> I read your latest story. They just keep getting better and better...

Heather> Wow, I really liked your idea of the African clan turning into their animal counterparts during the daytime; it's too bad you can't use it. And I'm sorry about earlier.

Oh, there's finally a set premiere date for TimeDancer season 2?! YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!

Hm, our fanfic characters in the party? This one (like most of mine) hasn't been written yet, but...[A TIE Defender timegates into the present from the future, lands on the lawn, and out steps someone in black armor and a black helmet. This individual, Omega, walks into the mansion. He draws his lightsaber and prepares for a fight when he sees all the bad guys that are in attendance, but Jim explains to him that bad guys aren't allowed to start anything here. Omega nods and then proceeds to replicate a CD of Europe's "The Final Countdown", put it in the CD player, and rock out to it.]

Dumlao> Illegal did so well last time that she's getting repeat business: "Brave Hearts" from "Ernest Goes To Camp". It was played both during the movie and during the closing credits.

Jaden> <<"Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go throw up now.">> Wonderful quote!

[W: "Alright, we have a cure for the Virus. Wait...Kitainia said that Orion could make this thing even more effective by encoding some magic into it--" Orion has been listening in on the CR's comm channel. He teleports in, casts a spell on the blood sample, and teleports back to wherever he was before. W: "Wow, you people sure are efficient." SJ: "What about my TIE Scimitar?" W: "There's been a change of plans. This shouldn't take long. First we're going to the Dark Star to cure the Dragon Virus and clear things up with the New Republic, then we'll go back for your ship, then come to the party. When the party's over, we're going back to your lab to whip up replacements for the Doom Commando cyberdemon and two cyber-imps that were killed at Area 51." The Falcon flies off to the Dark Star, and Fleur's Bird Of Prey flies off to wherever she's taking it. Meanwhile, at Jim's mansion, several Zerg Hydralisks (essentially xenomorphs with praying-mantis arms and slug tails, in case you don't have StarCraft) slither into the party and get themselves roaring drunk.

** walks in, the strains of "Leaving On A Jet Plane" filtering in behind him ** I love WinAmp.

HEATHER> I'm assuming you meant the e-mail offer; in that case, it's still open. I'll be waiting.

COYOTE> I hate GeoCities. With a PASSION. I'm currently on my fourth account in two-and-a-half years. Don't ask. (RE: razor blades) Oh, God! You're sick! But I like Zath's sandpaper-castration idea better. *shudders*

ZATH> {"Let's compromise. We can use the garlic press on the fingers and toes while we get medieval on the rest of his anatomy."} Sounds like a plan. Now we just have to get it into legislation. You take Congress, I'll head for Parliment. *dons winter gear — it's damn cold in Ottawa*

Oh, and is it just me, or are we more creative in devising punishments for the second-lowest creatures on earth (after child molesters/murderers) than we were in killing the lawyer?

ROBBY> *laughs* Wish I could be there... but I'll keep following the progress.

**The screen comes on. Borgis and Butt-Borg are sitting on their mangy old couch, watching Natalie Imbruglia's "Torn" video. Borgis: "I don't understand it, Butt-Head! She keeps saying she's naked and they don't show her!! Why don't they show her?" Butt-Borg: "Uh, settle down, Borgis. And remember, I'm Butt-Borg now." <chiming noise> Borgis: "What's that?" Butt-Borg: "The phone is ringing. <picks it up> Uh, hello?" Guod (on other end of line): "This is your boss. I'm calling to give you two morons another chance at helping us take out the Ravens. But we're going to need some more muscle. Find that gang you two are always trying to belong to. Assimilate them, then all of you come on to San Antonio. Got it?" Butt-Borg: "Like, okay, Master Guod. We'll get them right away. Huh huh huh." <hangs up>**

**The scene switches to MrNoying's party, where Doug is being chewed out by Agent Janice Ripowski. "Do you know how drunk all these people are?" she asks him. "This music is also terrible! And the suggestions some of them keep making to me, urgh! How much longer must we stay here, Mr. Elder? We do have work to do, you know." "Yes, yes," Doug replies. "Don't worry. As soon as Cobra and the other bikers show up, we'll collect ourselves and get on to the Alamodome." "I'm especially worried about your team's conduct tonight, Mr. Elder," Janice goes on. "Your Quickling immortal is in the wrong bathroom, throwing up right beside that werewolf creature we picked up. Your psychic investigator is sitting in her underwear at a poker table, stripping for cash. Messrs. Shapiro and Gaist have already used up practically all their spell energies trying to unspike the punch, your driver and demolition man is making catcalls and lewd remarks to almost every female in the room, and don't get me started on what I think is in the sandwiches you all have eaten tonight! And that's only what your team is doing! We need to get out of here before everyone goes nuts." She looks hysterical. Doug hands her a glass of wine and advises that she try to calm down, and hopefully it won't be much longer before Kitainia's Hell's Angel pals arrive with Wilek and his friends. Janice nods that she hops so and walks off to find a place to hide from all the things she cannot stand. Doug turns to face the Comment Room.**

Geez, that woman is no fun! Oh well, at least we're enjoying this experience. <very big grin>

Robby: Yes, thanks for holding the party, and the countdown as well. Sorry if Kitainia said you wanted fanfic characters here. That part of the post should have gone to Zath.

Sevarius Jr.: Sounds like the Dragons virus has become the deadliest disease on Earth. Hope you take care of it soon, and find a cure. As for Pinky, hope you are able to track him down and kill him before he can spread it. Sorry we can't help you, we're kinda tied up right now with the party and the upcoming attack on the Circus to stop Thailog and the Masked Magician's mind control plot. Good luck.

Kyryn and Fleur: Miss you both, until you return.

DumlaoX: Thanks for fixing the pic. I will be awaiting whatever suprises are in store.

Coyote: Sorry Geocities went down like that. Believe me, if I could get Gubio away from his mech modifications right now, I'd have him try to hack into the Geocities server and get it back up. He might be able to actually do it, he's accomplished some pretty nifty Internet hacking feats. Among his greatest triumphs are getting into the NationsBank company's mainframe accounts computer and fixing all its Y2K problems before having to spike (see the movie Goldeneye to get the reference) and escape; and breaking into the highest levels of security in the government's computers, then downloading a few of their secrets (peaceful stuff, no weapons) and distributing them to conspiracy sites all over the Web. He truly is the world's most scrupulous hacker, too bad he can't help. Anyway, I hope the server gets back up soon so you can upload. If you get the chance, please send a copy of your latest (and the Clan Austin pic, if it is yet done) to my or Kitainia's e-mail address.

Heather: Ack, quite a dillema you have there. Either the necklaces, changing into animals, or the Demona spell are the only ways I can think of to keep them awake. Sorry. On the plus side, since they are in Africa, maybe you could have them bump into the werepanthers Tea and Fara Maku (from the episode Mark of the Panther) or even visit the city of Anansi. Angie Ippolito is another fanfic writer, by the way.

That's all for now, see you people next time.
**Doug turns to walk over to the pool tables and sink a few balls. Kitainia is already there doing so herself. The other Ravens are still doing what they were last time. Suddenly loud shouts of "WOO HOO!! erupt from the strip poker game along with a Polaroid shutter snap. Doug looks over there and rolls his eyes as he emits a loud groan and Tricia puts her camera away. "That is so out-of-character for Demona," he mutters to himself.
Meanwhile, over against the wall, the Masked Magician (who has come unmasked so he will not be recognized) is talking on his cell phone to Asil. "I'm heading over to the circus now," he says. "Lots of preparations to do for the plot. I've left an agent behind to keep you posted on developments. Right now, lots of good guys are here, and more are arriving every minute. They could be a problem for you and your troops." "Don't worry," Asil snaps. "I have a plan." "Yes, I know," says the Masked Magician with a sneer. "And so far everything is going according to it. Thailog and everyone else from our team who came along, except for Josh and Sevarius, is already passed out from drink, by the way, you have nothing to worry about from them. Last I heard, the security people were taking them to sleep it off upstairs. I trust Guod will teleport them back before they can be interrogated?" "He will," says Asil. "I am so angry they had to all endanger themselves like that. Not to mention the plan. Sometimes I think you, me, Guod, and Pastor Paul are the only ones really dedicated to the cause." "I think that too," smiles M.M. "See you at the circus, good bye." He nods at a tall and muscular black-haired man dressed in jeans and a shirt that says "Hunting is Life," then leaves the mansion. The man, who happens to be Tricia's ex-boyfriend Josh Maness, shrugs and watches him go, then continues to kick back beers. The party goes on.**

**The screen changes to Highland Park, where Todd and his gang (including his girlfriend Gina, Mr. Sanders, the big guy who never speaks; his former arch-rival Leroy, and four more goons) are sitting on a bench smoking cigarettes. Buttis and Butt-borg walk up to them and say hi. "Go away, you little t&*ds," Todd orders them. "I ain't in the mood right now to mess with youse. By the way, that's some awful strange gear you got on." "We have come to take over your gang, Todd," Butt-Borg laughs. "Huh huh huh." "Oh yeah?" Todd roars, leaping up and dropping his beer can. "You two are asking for it bigtime now. Let's get them!" The gang members all hop up and draw weapons. They then advance on the morons, who continue to laugh. "You will be ass-im-uh-lated," Butt-Borg intones, he and Borgis extending the equipment that allows them to do that and keeping up the laugh. "To be continued" flashes, and the screen fades out.**

53 MORE DAYS TILL TIME DANCER SEASON 2 PREMIERE!

Heather- Cool idea, yes.

THE PARTY- The party is meant to be a huge crossover fun thing free for all, everybody do feel free to invite whoever you want, and do pretty much whatever you want, though wait on killing the CR Lawyer. That's how we're going to end the festivities... But the party will continue going until everyone gets tired of it, or we start running out of party ideas. So anybody who hasn't had a chance to arrive yet, you still have plenty of time probably. And mind you, EVERYONE is invited to come... And even if you miss it, Jim throws one of these big parties every couple of months, and he tops them EVERY time... Hmm, Demona's stoned and topless? Man, I wish Jim had invited me to the party...

Wilek- I would hold that particular name mispelling against you and mock you about it, but I won't since I'm bound to make a similar mistake eventually, since I post in here every day...

Coyote- All good creativity movies, yes... And what singer are you reffering to? If you truly think you'll get in trouble, you can e-mail me the answer, or put the blame on me when you post it... Either way. I'm just curious.

Stephen "Coldstone" Sobotka, Jr.- Your teasers have no affect on me. I don't care for the cold trio... at... alll... Dangit! SO I"M LYING! I WANNA SEE MORE OF THEM! Stop with the teasing already!

Rolling Calf- The Dragonheart soundtrack is ALL instumental, very good, and you can probably find it for 12 bucks at your local Target.

Fleur- Every living thing on earth perish? Eww...

Jaden-Attend the party. Enjoy. And yes, SW and ST:I are a long way off... Sigh...

Kitania- I never said to bring in fanfic characters, but I like the idea! Everbody, go ahead and do just that!

SJ- Pinky with the dragon virus? Hoo boy... And once again, the party will probably go for a while yet, you'll be able to attend later. And if not, there will be another a few months from now...

Cyrway- Good choice for dead musicians. They were the best.

**Jim begins to head over to the stip poker table, its his job to make sure all the guests are having fun, and he tries to partake in EVERY activity... Unforunatley, his girl friend Mare cuts him off. "Jim, you're coming with me!" Mare grabs him by the arm, and starts running him off to some unknown destination... Meanwhile, a large green and yellow van parks, and five rather large turtles look about, and high three each other. Venus comments, "We made it to one of Jim's parties! YES!" Michelangelo dignifies this with a "Duuude..." Leonardo nods, this is a good thing. Donatello looks around for one of the Sevarius', and Raphael frowns as he sees a beaked, red garoyle with white hair approaching...**

Get me a gun. I want to shoot the Geocities system admin who decided in his infinite wisdom to shut down the entire server.

Yep, Geocities is still down. I can get stuff done sporadically with the File Manager, but FORGET about accessing pages! The new story *is* up, it is in my space. You just can't get through to it.

Anybody who suggests e-mailing Tech Support: the last time I did that, I got a returned mail-user unknown message, which basically says that Geocities has no tech support because it's being run by MONKEYS!!!

**The screen lights up to reveal Coyote, Jason, the Gearhead, Rosanna, Tricia, Demona, Ted Kennedy, Carl Levin and Strom Thurmond seated at the table still deeply involved in the strip poker game. Everyone has lost at least one piece of clothing, save Demona, who still seems to be winning every hand despite her stoned condition.**

Hey guys. I don't know how she's doing it, but Demona's still won every hand thus far. (BTW, we're playing a "bid" style of poker, you give up a piece of clothing for $100 to bet, just FYI.)

<"Are you gonna gab, or are you gonna deal?">

Oops, almost forgot, it's my turn to deal. Okay, while I'm shuffling, let's make some replies.

Crisis update: Geocities is still being quite agitating, but I did manage to get the new story uploaded. Click my name to go to the new fic, "Fairlane." Find out what Pontiac does in her spare time.

Coldstone: We're waiting with bated breath!

Fitting rape punishments: OWWWCH!! **composes self** Sorry. But if you want true pain and suffering ... why don't we try one system I came up with once as the most painful experience for a male to endure. WARNING! ALL THOSE WITH WEAK STOMACHS PASS BY THIS!! ==If you're going for true pain, tie the rapist up naked and slide him down the world's longest razor blade by his ... ahem ... and at the end have him land in a big vat of vinegar and/or ammonia. BIIIIG fun! SQUEAMISH CAN TURN BACK TO ME NOW!!
Then again ... a magazine article I read once suggested (partly in jest) that rapists be forced to watch 24/7 hard-core pornography for eight years straight. The author guaranteed that every sexual urge in the culprit would permanently be gone at the end of that time.

Fleur, TRC: Hope to see you guys back soon!

Jaden: I was wondering where the empty bottle of Pine Sol came from ...

Green Baron re Teddy Kennedy: Have you ever seen Ted Kennedy's INWO card? He's missing his pants, the bottom half of his body is soaked, and he's pouring himself a glass of champagne while a car behind him sinks into the river (think Chappaquiddick).

Cyrway: AA next week! YEE-HAWW!! **composes self once more** Sorry. But I'm looking forward to it.

Heather: Did you have a backup plan on how the clan stays awake? I'm racking my brain for you, and for the life of me I can't think of anything other than what I've already used for Rosanna and Angela (the same spell that's on Demona). But I really hope you don't get in trouble. Plagiarism is a really hard thing to disprove.

***RP!!!***

**Coyote tosses his ante, then offers his shirt (he's lost his jacket) for another $100. The rest of the table offers their antes. Much to everyone's surprise, Demona has to borrow, putting up her halter-top (uh oh!)**

Okay, what's everybody want to do?

<"I'm out." "Too rich for me." "Out." "No way." "Call." "Fold." "Out." "Not for me.">

Okay, Demona, it's just you and me. I call. Let's see what you've got. **Demona gives him an "I-can't-believe-you-just-said-that smirk** Sorry. Show your hand.

**Demona drops her hand. Full house, kings high. Coyote whistles.**

Well now, that's pretty hard to beat. **looks at hand** But I think I can rise to the occasion. **drops hand** Full house, aces high. Give it up, lady.

**Demona rolls her eyes, begins to remove her top. All eyes are upon her, some more than others: Ted Kennedy is drooling like a rabid dog. All this excitement is way too much for Sen. Thurmond, who collapses. The paramedics rush to the 99-year-old senator's aid as the screen winks off.**

**Zath screams in anger and disbelief.** Sorry, but I just had a big post eaten by a netscape crash moments before I could send it. Hopefully I can remember most of what I said the first time...

Fanfic Archive> Does anyone know if the new archive will have a list of stories arranged alphabetically by title, or just by author like the old one?

Coyote> Isn't the party already pretty much a free-for-all anyway? : ) But seriously, I don't want everyone to feel obligated to drag all their characters in here and spend the time giving them all major parts. I was thinking more along the lines of lots of amusing little cameo appearances.

I guess I might as well add a character of my own. **There is another flash of light and suddenly a reddish-grey web-winged garg wearing a long black coat with the sleeves rolled up appears at the party. He looks around, blinks once, grabs a glass of punch, and then vanishes into the crowd.** The fic he's from is still in the extremely sketchy planning stage, but I hope to finish it eventually. If anyone cares, his name is Latigo.

Green Baron> This was the punch that was made to replace the punch that went up in flames. I guess we just have to admit that keeping the punch non-alcoholic at this party is a losing battle.

Deuce> Too soft? It takes a long time to remove part of someone's body using sandpaper, even if it is a relatively small part. A garlic press would be too fast. Let's compromise. We can use the garlic press on the fingers and toes while we get medieval on the rest of his anatomy.

That's all I can remember at the moment. I'm sure I'll remember the rest as soon as I turn off the computer, oh well. This is going to be my last post for a while because I have so much homework this weekend. I need to work on my research paper, reed more of Frankenstein, do all of a science project I should have started weeks ago, pick and research one of the Amendments for government class, and on top of all that I have to write a story using the characters from the movie Legend (my creative writing teacher is making up the cirriculum as she goes along).

Well , this idea came to me from a dream but I made the clan look animal-like not because of Africa but so like the clan in South America they can stay up in the day. But very different.
They turn into their counter-parts. Like Vaui turns into a zebra , Lawna turns into a cheetah , Morowa turns into a lioness , Mahazet turns into a Onyx(sp) ,Busara & Omorede turn into wild-dogs. But they can tell each other apart from the real animals from the necklaces they wear.

And ages for the African clan ? Oh , Vaui is the leader.
Lawna,Busara, & Morowa are around the same age has Angela.
Mahazet is Cavall's age.
Vuai is like in human years he's 38.
Omorede is Busara's little brother just minus 10 years.

And I'm going to put it like in the Savannah near a village. And the people in that village believe that the animals are fighting back at the poachers that are killing the animals.
And guess how they save the animals that poachers try to kill in the daytime ?

REACTIONS-- It seems that overall, the reaction to the DA delay was taken pretty well. And here I was worried that everyone in here would tar and feather me :P Again, when DA gets on the air, it will be worth the wait.

TIMEDANCER COUNTDOWN-- Heh, I wish this lab had a calendar in it. OK, for now, so we can get a countdown going, gun for the second Tuesday of January. Now, everyone, start counting.

MADDOX PIC BEFORE-- Um, that was a mistake. Planning for the new comment room and I made a slight error. Sorry <:) As you can see now, it has been returned to normal.

ED-- Good question about the fate of Gargoyles/Pendragon in season 3. Honestly, the staff hasn't decided what to do about that. Right now, we are primarily concentrating on Finishing up writing and editing the TD, Garg/Pen eps as well as planning out DA. Trust me, once we know what happens, you'll know what happens.

ROLLING CALF-- Dragonheart Instrumental, eh? As far as I remember, the whole soundtrack is one huge instrumental piece. I'll have Illegal dig up as many Dragonheart MP3s he can find.

MISSING CHARACTERS-- No one seems to have any faith in us, eh? *looks down, shakes his head, and laughs* Remember, surprises are good :)

Till next time...

Hi All,
Concerning the Gargoyles costumes, I just received a "snail mail" letter from the McCall Pattern Co.

McCalls said in their letter,

"Your request for a costume depicting a gargoyle from the television program, 'Gargoyles', has been submitted to our desigbn department for consideration in the planning of future pattern collections.
"As the number of requests grows, it becomes more likely that a pattern will be produced."

I have had a promising response from Butterick and Simplicity and now, McCalls so far, via the letters I received from them.

So please, please....if you can write a short letter and request it. <hugs> :) Here are the addresses:

Butterick Pattern Service
Attn: Nalina Mann
161 Avenue of the Americas
New York, NY 10013

McCall Pattern Company

Simplicity Pattern Co, Inc.
Consumer Information Department
901 Wayne Street
Niles, MI 49121

Vogue Pattern Service
161 Sixth Ave
New York, NY 10013

Good luck and I hope everyone writes. It sure would make finding a costume easier for the Gatherings, Halloween, etcetera, if this possibility were to come true. :) Also, pass this on to anyone else you think who might be interested in this who does not have access to the web, but loves the show. :)

To those who think I torture my characters far too much...how many ppl think that Graeme couldn't kick Luc's arse worth crap? *counts the hands.* Thanks, Mercedes and Stormy...no, I meant the real Luc, not EAU Luc... ;)

The little upstart, in Stormy's words...

Anyway, joyous news! FINALLY! Ambient Anarchists is going to come out NEXT WEEK...I don't care what it takes, but I'm now sticking strictly to my own PC working with WordPad and the only thing else running is the CD Player...Monster Magnet and Hawkwind, of course...and, let me tell you, NOTHING IS TURNING OUT WHAT I PLAN!!! IT'S GREAT!!! *wrings her hands in a Sevarius-esque manner.* As for joint writers go, Stormy and I are coming close to finishing our first major collaberative fic, the Frayed Ends Of Sanity, the only place where time is meaningless... *Wagner, Caligo, Gecko, Rommel, Mauser, Brook, and Whitless rush out in a chorus line, singing "Rose Tints My World," and exit stage left.* I didn't write that...

Also, I'm kinda excited and at the same time apprehensive on the new Garage, Inc. album coming out...METALLICA AND BOB SEGAR DON'T MIX!!! Metallica and Sabbath, definately. Metallica and Zeppelin, all right. Metallica and Segar, it's almost like the Carnigans' version of Iron Man...I'm still looking for "The Thing That Should Not Be" cover by Monster Magnet and the demo of "The Four Horsemen" with Dave Mustaine in place of Kirk Hammet...looks like I'm only going to buy bootlegs and EPs from now on, reminiscing on Cliff Burton...

The perfect band of dead musicians... Jimi Hendrix on guitar, Cliff Burton on bass, Eric Carr on drums, and Bob Calvert on vocals...

Back to Work! *PTOOFF!*

Heather> Best things is to let the story become. But if you're looking for inspiration I would recommend read Mike Resnick's 'Kirinayaga'. The best story I've ever read was 'For I have Touched the Sky', a part in the book. Story stuck with me for months. A good place to start is introducing the characters, who are they, what are their desires and fears. I find the questions are always a good start for a story.
Writers block> That advice applies to writers block as well. What question do you want answered in the story. With me what happens is I want to go one way and the story wants to go another. Sometimes it helps to take the blinders off. Instead of thinking where the story *should* go, take a look around and seeing where it *can* go. I had the most tremendous writers block writing 'David and Goliath' because I didn't want to kill Goliath. I was trying to avoid that inevitable conclusion. But when I let the story go where it would, I not only finished the story, but burned through a sequel in half the time. I'm a instinctual, fly by the tip-of-your-wings type writer, so it may not work for everyone, but I works for me.

**Kyryn is busy giving Buick a good scratch behind the ears and a belly rub while keeping an eye on the poker players. Bandit has gone off to help tend bar. He starts mixing smoothies for those who are not imbibing.**

For those who want to get to the fic archive, click on my name.

I'm going offline for the weekend.

Wilek> Re: the dragon virus - didn't Traveller say something about the original virus being cured when you found out what was up with the dragons/Dragon King? Think about the Phoenix Gate and some travelling you and a couple other people did before TGS Season 2 started and what you read <g>.

Rape> Been there. Not going there again. There's a reason that I'm a very good shot with handguns and why I believe firmly in the Second Amendment, 'cause nine times out of ten the cops aren't going to be there when it happens.

Heather> If you're looking for a plotline and the clan is going to stay in Africa, you might want to look at some of the problems/issues in Africa - starvation/famine, dictators and genocide, the endangered species issues/poaching. All of those are things that a clan might get itself involved in.
I mentioned below an offer to help draw some of the pics. The offer is still open.

BTW, has anyone seen/heard from Seri or Wavers in a while?

DA> Bummer, I just finished reading the eps last week and I would really like to find out what happens, since they ended the season on kind of a cliffhanger.

TD>Yeah!

BRIAN, ZATH, et al RE: RAPISTS' TORTURE> Aw, that's too soft. Think private parts and a garlic press.

STAR WARS> Looks awesome. As for "Titanic", well, you don't want to hear my opinion on that. I only went because of the people I was going with (a girl I liked at the time, her psychotic friend, and my best friend), not the movie. I have a theory on why it was so popular for such an average movie, but I won't get into that here.

KITAINIA> I never said you had to KILL the bastard, just hurt him. A LOT. See above....

THE PARTY> Sounds like it's getting interesting. It's times like this I wish I could be a useful member of the RP.

Well, I oughta be going now. This may be my last post until Monday (God forbid), so y'all have a good weekend, OK? Bye!

**Sevarius Jr., Traveller, and Fleur (along with Frankenstein's monster as lab assistant) are still in the lab on the Bird of Prey, working diligently on the Dragon Virus.

SJ looks at a vial of blood taken from those infected at the Falcon. "Man these little buggers are mean! Check this out, watch what happens when I infect a lab rat." He moves over to a cage, where two familiar looking mice, one with a large head and another, skinny mouse, are huddling in the corner of their cage. SJ injects the tainted blood into the skinny mouse, and places him back in his cage. The mouse abruptly begins to spasm....then starts to chant "Dragons dragons *narf* dragons dragons *narf* dragons....."
Suddenly, the mouse doubles in size, and rips open the cage with his bare hands, running out of the lab....
SJ stares in disbelief. "Um...they never did that before."***

Wilek: This proves what I've lot all along: you're really Heather. Don't try denying it! Oh, and the gold armor and the mini-fridge say hi. ;)

Ted Kennedy: I too shall enjoy watching Teddy bite it. He's just too annoying to be allowed to survive....

STAR WARS! I've been waiting for this for sooooooo long! I finally saw the trailers for it last night, and it looked sweet. Lots of new characters, lots of great effects, my would-be love interest Natalie Portman, that really cool lookin' new Dark Jedi....It's gonna be great. Bigger than Titanic.

Jackal: Good stuff so far, and darker stuff coming up? I'm there.

TRC: Um....I hate to tell you this, but.....um, you're pants are kinda ripped. Every time you bend over, there a full moon in the sky, you know what I mean? Please, you're scaring the children.....

**SJ is peering into a microscope at a sample of the Dragon virus (the really nasty version).
"This ain't good, boys and girls. This strain of the virus directly attacks chemical neurotransmitters in the brain. Seratonin levels drop, androstenedione hormones increase...."
"What's that mean?" Fleur asks.
"Apperently, this virus is not only lethal, but in advanced stages, the victim becomes incredible mentally unstable--prone to fits of rage and psychotic episodes. If the virus doesn't kill everyone, the infected will."
"We have to find a cure, NOW!" Wilek says.
"You're telling me," SJ replies. "I mean, I've got a party to go to, Demona might get nekkid, Thailog's already drunk, someone's spiked the punch...."

**The party is still going on. Jaden is off throwing up in the men's room, accompanied by Stephanie, who has gotten so drunk she does not even realize she's in the wrong place (my sis will hurt me if she reads this, <grin>). Tricia has joined the strip poker game, Shauna and Keith are sampling Shenzi's sandwiches, Gubio is surfing the Net on his laptop with Mist curled at his feet, and Jammer is busy flirting with whatever female is in range. Shap and Orion are walking around casting purify drink spells on the spiked punch (they don't want everyone getting too drunk!), Coyote's gang as well as Kyryn and Bandit are doing whatever they are, and Lathrop is watching the rodeo. Boris and Elena are busy gossiping with Kari and Mare, and Janice is in the corner, trying to write up her report to the President within all the partying and noise. Kitainia and Doug are dancing their special tango-mambo-polka-disco cross dance in the center of the dance floor, grooving to the music of Roxette. As the song ends, they stop. Doug walks off to get a drink while Kitainia turns to address the room.**

Robby: Before I forget, thanks so much for holding this party! It's definitely a great break from the action, and we're all having loads of fun. We're going to stick around till the bikers arrive at least, and then maybe head on to the circus. We may stick around though. I've heard a rumor some of the bad guys are planning to crash this thing. Drunk Thailog, stoned and strip poker-winning Demona, and grooving Sevarius Sr. don't look like they'll be any problem, but Asil has not shown up yet, nor has Guod. If they're the ones planning to crash, and the rumors say they are, plus they aren't on the guest list, we may have to stick around and help throw them out. Be assured if it happens, we will. <grin>

ColdTrio: I miss them very much myself, would like to see them again. Especially ColdSteel. I'd also like Thailog to return as a villain to TGS, if you guys aren't taking him for dead. (Greg clearly said he is not!)

Wilek, Fleur, Traveller, SJ: Good luck curing that dragon virus. If we can provide any help, please let us know. Orion is a good healer, Lathrop can probably encode magic into the cure to beef it up, and Gubio can help you do research if he gets some free time from modifying the Mech. My dad is also a very good doctor, if you need the knowledge of someone in the medical profession. He works in Houston Memorial Hospital's virus lab when he's not pulling duty in the ER, and if you tell him the full details of the crisis and that I sent you, I am sure he'd be glad to help. If you decide to use him, the guy's personality is similar to that of MASH's Colonel Henry Blake (Dad's idol) and he looks about the same. Just refer to him as Dr.T. :)

Heather: Nice names. As for the setting for your stories, it depends. Do you want to keep the clan in Africa or move it to the United States? If Africa, the forested slopes of a mountain such as Kilimanjaro or the Congo jungles would be good places to start out because any gargoyle clan needs a good place to hide in this day and age. They could be in the middle of a human city, too, but then you would need to figure out how they got in. For Clan Austin, they've been hiding on the slopes of Austin's Mount Bonnell and its forests for the past several generations. That was until the city got so big and the mountain was flooded with hikers and campers, so they had to move. For a while they were able to roost in Zilker Park, but several of them got the urge to start protecting people and began doing so. One of the people whose life they saved in the process was Larry Faulkner, the Prez of UT. He was very grateful and until recently was letting them sleep on the Tower's Observation Deck. Now that it's going to be reopened, the clan will once again have to find itself a new home. Perhaps the tunnels beneath UT will suffice, the clan still has plenty of human friends in town and they could also help. Hope this example of a clan history helps you.

Rape Punishments: Geez, these punishments are extreme. Oh well, speaking as someone who has almost been raped three times in her life (every guy who tried has ended up in ICU thanks to my kickboxing skills and two out of the three are already dead in this RP), I don't think what has been proposed is good enough. First the rapist should get their ass kicked by the person they harmed (if they did so), then caning, then life in jail which is IMHO a much worse punishment than death.

Robby again: You want fanfic characters in here? Okay. Doug, can you please conjure some up? **Kitainia motions to Doug, who opens a gateway to the twisted web that is his fanfic universe. He then calls forth Doc Perkins to help serve bar, Daniel Dobbs (who was the fence mentioned but never seen in "Getting Even With Dad" by the way) to start a game of pool, and the Sparks vigilante group to join in the festivities. Changeling, Agony, Laura, Sheppard, and Del Dawson come through to join in as well, along with Louie Sanchez to help serve drinks and Seth Figaro to help with bouncing out unruly guests. Doug tells the characters to leave as soon as he does, and not to have too much fun as they're going right back to his universe afterwards. They all nod and move off. Kitainia continues her post.** There, hope that suffices for your request.

Jackal: <breaks into song> I don't want to make you mad, I don't want to meet your dad, I don't want to be your dream come true. Cause I don't know just what I've found, I don't know my sky from ground, I don't know where I'm going to. I don't know, how 'bout you?....Sorry, your comment to TRC just made me unable to resist doing that. As I said before, nice job on the fanfic saga so far. Take it however far you will, it's your story. Just so all know, Doug finished the crucifixion scene in his latest story today. It's all inspiration, mourning, and reverence. You'll have to wait till the whole story's done to know the rest. :)

Mandi: Since you were so enthusiastic about it, Doug wants you to know he's already starting absorbing Buffy elements into his universe. Brooklyn, Agony, and a certain famous 15th-century Slayer are going to battle some vamps in the next fic, and the one after that will feature the first Slayer Watchers and the Hell Mouth. A pure crossover is coming as well, though it is of course a long way off. He's asleep now, or he'd be telling this himself. I will join him soon.

That's all for now, good night.
**Kitainia moves on to the caterer's cart, watching as Shenzi's brother wheels in another wagon full of sandwiches. "Straight from Mudville!" Jackal roars in glee. "To your palette. Kitainia mumbles an apology to whatever fans of the cheesy cartoon show "Doug" may be lurking nearby and begins to chow down. The screen then goes blank. To be continued next time!**

Countdown to TD??? 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, where's it at?!!! To hell with January!!! I'm sorry...., just a little eager..., that's all.
<<Nice character development on Chris in this one, it's good to know he isn't all bad. And what Angela does in that story I really enjoyed but must not speak of for fear of getting hit with mud.>>
He just has a really bad temper that's all...., Angela wasn't in her right mind.., things happen!
<<I'm glad I'm not the only one who's been bringing the Bible and Christian religious mythology/history into fanfic..., and I'm having the Crucifixon as one of the events Brooklyn visits..>>
Uhh..., I'm a complicated, sick, twisted individual, i'm gonna explain this the best way I can. I'm not christian, but i believe there's a God, Devil, demons and angels. And every story has it's good and evil..., where a character is one or the other..., I didn't want that, I wanted something a little more "me-ish". (A very fine line between the two sides that easily crossed at any given moment). He plays for no side, and I thought it would be cool to have the ultimate evil character send out his "goons" to say, "Play for our team, we'll give you whatever you want and we'll pay ya 23 million a year." But the ultimate good side is sayin, "When I see that you're ready, I'll offer you 36 million a year." So, you have this problem, you don't wanna be all bad, and you don't wanna be labeled a goodie-goodie. So what do you say? To "heck" with you both! I'm fine the way I am. Little do you know, their not done with you... What am I talking about?!!
I'm glad you mentioned the crucifixion..., just a future note so you'll know, I know this is gonna kick up some dust..., In my 7th story, "Divine Intervention" <--let me know if I need to change this name...., the crucified Jesus is mocked..., It's not me doin it (it's Mr. Hat!!), Seriously, it's not meant to offend anyone, I just wanna give you the feel of how dark things are gonna get. Darkest before the dawn kinda thing....
<<I thought Demona and Angela were gonna get freaky with Chris!>>
Actually, that's the way the story oringinaly went! I decided it was too extreme, and there would have been no point in it, so I took it out.
<<Part of your skull starts to break away...>>
I laughed about that for atleast 15 minutes!!!
The Rolling Calf- You're my friend, right?! I don't.... don't wanna make you mad....

**Ted Kennedy has blood alchohol of only .7 right now so he is still sober give his tolerance. He realizes he is about to be shredded and join his brothers until he remembers something in his lapel pocket. He takes out a bag full of white powder and bops Demona in the face with it. Th ebag bursts and the cocaine has an odd effect on Demona as she mistakenly inhales the stuff all over her face. Mayor Marion Berry comes out of the crowd with a straw attached to his nose as he tries to inhale whatever remains on Demona's face. In her new stage, a stoned Demona suggests a poker game with Ted Kennedy and a few other Seantors.**

Coyote> Who are the other Senators Demona is playing poker with?

Doug> Ted Kennedy is a sleazy villain and a fun punching bag, so I couldn't kill him yet. I will kill him in the future, isnce he is my least favorite Senator and I try to make fun of him once a day if not more.

As for my picks on favorites and least favorites, I'll e-mail mine, since a lot of other people here may not care for such a discussion. I do think it amuse you that there are rumors that Trent Lott is a closet homosexual. If its true, then his uncalled-for speech is merely displacing his own insecuroties:)

Sorow> Happy Birthday, and my cat wishes you one too.

Zath(sp)> The scouts leader Mary aka Ave Maria discovered that the Kennedys spiked the punch, when the punchbowl went ablaze, but thanks fo rwarning the others. I advise no girl drink anything in an area infested with Kennedys. When they committ daterape, they get acquitted.

Rape punishment> Actually I like all the punsihments, but I think we can be harsher. Locking them in a cell with a guy named Sweetpea is a good idea, and so is making them look at naked pictures of Janet Reno :)

**While Demona and the Senators are palying poker with a few others, Kay Bailey Hutchison is accosted by an eleven year old Kennedy who imitates his grandfather Ted by
