Man, I could have kept writing all night! But, as it is, some of you may not be speaking to me anymore-
Go to the Tales of madness!

The same sediments. My cut scene is up... unfortunately, at the same time as Chicgeek's much more entertaining post.

Anyways, tell us both what you think!

[chicgeek]

I like it, Zobot.
Just picturing how Nega Tinker is going to react....oh, yeah.
Can you see him portaling over to try to find out what the $#@% happened in this universe?

[Professor_Tinker]

Erm, after smacking hm upside the back of the head and pulling him back into head? ... you'd be surprised how little he would care. Nega-Tinker is a little more... erm, let's call it 'romantically confident' and leave it at that.
But clever not putting it in- Nega-Tinker *would* rather disrupt things.... he's gonna be p'oed as it is.

I'll put some bloopers up in a second.

[Professor Zobot]

Incidently...

I might as well link this here: I'd love to think that this was a homage to my character in the Mad Sci Wars, but I'm not that arrogant. It's probably just a coincidence.

[chicgeek]

Oh my gosh-great minds do think alike, don't they? Now, if it had been president Grant, instead of Cleveland-that really would have been eerie.

[Desius]

I live once more! Umm, i mean did anyone else have problems accessing the site today, I tried before going to work and couldn't even get the thing to load. I'll post once I catch up.

[chicgeek]

Same here-site was down. I had my fingers crossed at work that it was just temporary.

I haven;t had any problems- but then, i didn't go on until later.

[Desius]

Ain't Mister a Stinker.
Nothing like pulling the rug out from undersomeone by doing something unexpected.
So does anyone get what Mister was trying to do?
And did he succeed?
I wanna know what everyone thinks, I had alot of fun playing with a complete bastard of a character.

[chicgeek]

I think Mister enjoyed yanking Andrew's chain. Playing with his mind, sowing doubt and uncertainty, knocking him off balance-
making him think about his actions. Why he acts like he does, and the far reaching consequences, not just the immediate ones.
Giving Mads a taste of their own medicine?
I'm not sure, honestly. But definetly a bastard of a character.

And I'm glad more of you are joining in on the blooper reels. Yay!

[Professor Zobot]

Yes, I'll be putting a blooper reel up as soon as I can think of something amusing to put in it.

And once I finish the Jane Narbon story, I'll be starting my next project: the Mad Sci School...

A trite and cliched concept, of course, but not necessarily a bad one.

[Professor_Tinker]

okay, seriously, attacking the menagerie? Are these guys suicidal? And I don't care how prepared they are, there is no amount of explanation that can convince me that there is anyone capable of handing the Menagerie easily. With all the @#$! my characters are being put through, I get *this one*.

[chicgeek]

The Wars are getting exciting.
Who's life is Andrew going to save? What's in that briefcase? What nefarious trap awaits our hapless mads at the stadium? Where is that stinker Desecration? Will Mistral's tornado carry us off to MadOz? Who's butt will be kicked-Wally's or Narbon's? (I'm betting on Wally, or a draw, myself-gut feeling).
And -what about Naomi?(very obscure reference)
Tune in again for the next exciting episode.

[Professor_Tinker]

Okay, that;s the attack n the Menagery.
I'm sure there was something very intricate and planned out for it, and If there's some major problem with it, then feel free to PM me. But frankly?
This isn't very fun for me right now. Andrew being attacked is par for the course, but I draw the line at the Menagerie.
These are uncontrollable killing machines, created by a whimsical Geek. The gazebos and the GRUES are, according to their Mythology, unbeatable.

... and besides, if Andrew is made any sadder, he's going to fall into a Coma. Nobody wants that.

[Professor Zobot]

In all honesty, attacking the Menagerie wasn't my best thought-out idea.

That being said, if Amino isn't capable of doing it, I'd be surprised if anyone in the Wars could.

[Professor_Tinker]

Just... just please, no more of that. It's... it's too much to go there.
Seriously.
... Hey, wait, now that i think about it, Sayasuke's in the House. Hmm....

-Edit: Also, I suspect this is just to make Andrew Angry. Well, mission accomplished. Consider my establishing that the Menagerie will not be killed to be protecting the fine line between Fury and Tragedy.

[Professor Zobot]

Alright.

Fair enough. I can't really disagree considering how much crap Mister put Tinker through.

Amino, I'm sorry, but could you please pull out? I know it's unfair since you didn't really get to have much fun.

Still, there is always Phase 2.

[Professor_Tinker]

Thank you. I really appreciate it.

[Desius]

Eh, Sorry Amino, my fault. I guess I went overboard with Mister.

[chicgeek]

Does Andrew want a little cheering up? Go to what's left of Chic's lab, and see the new, improved Mecha! Seeing a creation fulfill it's potential is always heartwarming, isn't it? Or watch Chic run from Xerox,him waving his net in one hand, and a stack of forms in the other. Nah-she already said she'd fill them out, but I like the mental image.

I'm just glad Chic didn't have to face Mister.
Or have I just guarenteed that's going to happen?

Actually, that cheered *me* up. I imagine the confrontation drawn tex Avery style- Chic as Bugs, Xerox as Daffy.

That's pretty clever, too- Mecha never did get to fulfill his primary Function- I like how satisfied he seemed at finally manifesting it. Plus, there's loads of healthy scrap metal in the ground in the Warehouse District.

[Dr. Amino]

Okay, my last post may fix this somewhat. Honestly, Amino was never going to attack the menagerie (even she's not that stupid) and I don't really think she'll be able to get past Tinker's advanced security system (like that 'Do Not Touch' button? It's diabolical!). I think until Phase 2 Amino'll just try to destroy Tinker's lair and fail miserably , and yet still be praised for the success of the plan (because of the mind games Mister played on Tinker the whole time at the coffee place).

[chicgeek]

"Nyah...What's up, Xerox?"

Xerox, after Chic slips him an exploding candy cigarette-"You're desspickable!"

Right-O then! You know, if someone had just told me WHO was doing the attacking, I wouldn't have been so bothered. *glareglare* I'll delete my last post with The Menagerie- imagine, if you will, that the scene is one from some Other time.

[Desius]

Well Chic, no worries. Tanglebox should be the first and (hopefully) last time Mister directly interacts with a Mad unless said Mad hunts him down first.
And he's a slippery little bugger.
However, you're not considered off-limits for his game. Ask yourself, have you done anything that someone would want vengeance on you for?
There may be a Case with your picture in it.

[Professor_Tinker]

"Nyah...What's up, Xerox?"

Xerox, after Chic slips him an exploding candy cigarette-"You're desspickable!"

Somehow, it leads to them *both* hiding from Amino, and Xerox inevitably ends up in a Dress.

[Professor Zobot]

Yeah, I'm thinking that at some point we need to hit Mister with that freaking poker.

He creeps me out. Des, you do a VERY good job at this.

[Desius]

Amino:
Be berrrrry berrrrry quiet. I'm hunting Wabbits!
Chic:
Umm... wer're not rabbits.
Amino
Not Rabbits! Wabbits! Ingrid explain the difference while I throw my pie!

Heh! Happy thoughts now, let me imagine my happy thoughts.

[chicgeek]

Xerox in a dress? Now we've gone from Bugs Bunny (My favorite transvestite!) to Gilligan's Island.
"You can't make me, you can't make me, you can't make me."
"Xerox-we already did make you."
"Oh."

For the benefit of the whippersnappers in the audiance-tough toenails! Another classic you missed out on! Nyah!

Ahem.

And Des-has Chic done anything? Oh, I can think of several-including one you may not have thought of. Not that you need help to be Dastardly Dan...
Heh.
