Hey guys, I'm gonna have to postpone Warhammer night 'cause I can't find my gamemaster's notebook. I know exactly where I put it, too...I think we have some troublemakers again. Not pointing fingers or anything, I'm just saying this is becoming a pattern. Next thing you know the Mads are gonna set us up with a mandatory seminar about respecting personal property.

And speaking of? I'm not liking the pattern I'm seeing on the Sattelite this week. Keep an eye out the window.

[Now Sora's concerned.] What kinda trouble? And how do you know?

[punsofiron]

[Still calibrating for fourth wall breakage here, buuuut...]

I don't suppose you've ever heard of the Titanic?

[optimistickey]

[Sora scratches at his head.] No...

[punsofiron]

She was a huge ocean liner built about a hundred years ago, my time. Carried over 2000 people, I think. But lots of mistakes were made building and sailing her, lots of things went wrong. She crashed into an iceburg and sank in the north Atlantic ocean. Most of the passengers died.

[She sighs. She really didn't want to be held responsible of people panic, but what else can she do at this point?]

It's kind of a long story, but everything going on this week reminds me of that.

Ohhh... [Sora looks a bit downcast. That doesn't sound like a happy event at all. But then, he just gets confused.]

...People shrinking and a rapping dog remind you of that?

[punsofiron]

Unfortunately, yes.

.....some jerkasses thought it'd be a great idea to make kids' movies out of the incident.

[optimistickey]

[Sora tries to wrap his brain around this, and looks a little bit disturbed.]

Well. That doesn't sound like a good idea. At all.

[punsofiron]

Yeah, it really wasn't. They were pur-eeeetty bad.

[optimistickey]

But if it's something related to that...what should we do?

[punsofiron]

I dunno...short of hoping this tugboat can steer, we may have to call the Mads again.

[optimistickey]

Those guys aren't much of a help. Maybe Gypsy or Mike can steer it?

[punsofiron]

I hope so...this is a satellite after all...
