nonetheless, you'll note they're affiliated with hugo and lefty here. that's a clear sign, as far as i'm concerned. even if they are possibly mercenary squirrels (maybe they're just there for the nuts).

I did not realize they were with the socks! It's all clear now!

well, they do *seem* to be fighting on the same side... of course, that could just be random luck, or coincidence, or accident. find out in the next episode ! same bat-time, same bat-channel !

Don't you mean random bat-time, same bat-channel? Ya hafta keep your set tuned in at all times, or you miss an episode or two!

pshrynk · 11-20-2008, 05:12 PM

They're in it for the nuts. Just ask Miyatake.

Dear me.

he'll be here all week.

Harv got his feet under him and punched Fujimora in the gut. He would have tried for a head shot, but the gibbon was occupying most of that real estate, and he didn't like the look in the eyes of the primate.

Fujimora, deciding that collapsing in a heap was probably the fastest method of relieving his brain of the horror of the assault from the gibbon, did so.

Harv looked around. Vera was okay. The socks were backstroking across the lake and seemed okay. Adrian handed him a note and disappeared with a *pop*.

In horror, he saw Miyatake and the squid. And Miyatake with his hand in Vivaldi's collar.

"Well, Mr. Wallbanger, we seem to have an impasse, once again."

Ah, my invisible, inadvertently violent friend... ~sigh~ they grow up so fast [wipes small, happy tear from cheek]. It almost makes me wish I could.

Hello?

Yes? No, that wasn't the role I thought you were getting either. What? NOW? I suppose... let me see who's available... ok. But you're probably going to lose your signing bonus... fine.

fzzt-pop

The squid vanishes from Miyatake's hand, to be replaced with a rather irritated electric eel.

oh, NOW what is going to happen !!!

(cut to pshrynk, tearing his hair out over this unexpected plot twist, muttering "stupid unreliable cephalopods !! i had big plans for that squid !")

pshrynk · 11-20-2008, 09:12 PM

Well, I did.

pshrynk · 11-20-2008, 09:33 PM

"So, Mr. Wallbanger? What shall it be? Step away from the boat and allow me and my associate to go in peace? Or -- Holy Jeezus!" Miyatake dropped the squid, which had, for some reason, turned into an angry electic eel. The eel cast a dirty look over what would have been its shoulder, had it any, and slithered into the lake, swimming away.

"Oh, bugger this! This non-violence shtick has gone on long enough!" He reached into his pocket and pulled out the gun which would have been there if the squid hadn't been hired by accident.

Harv found that his gun had reappeared, as well. He pulled it from the holster.

Somewhere in Wisconsin, an aspiring writer, who really had had it with being a psychiatrist and just wanted to have a little fun with writing an action adventure story, screamed and pulled out his hair.

The two men stood in a face-off.

"Right," said Miyatake, "What now?"

Oh man.... you just HAVE to compile this into an ebook once it's done! I'll take mine in PRC format thank you very much!

But what the heck happened to the pirate ninja squirrels?
