And your manifesto pledges on bananas, cotton wool and coat-hangers are what?

My steadfast crew is right behind you, Sir Edward. Well not right behind you, the would be impolite. And since The Really Oblate Bear does not move too fast we may lag a bit but we are right behind you in spirit.

All Hale Queen Zelda Pinwheel!

Wait a minute, I'm all wishy-washy on this royalty stuff, seeing as how us 'Mericans ain't into all that, so i'm flapping whichever way the wind blows. Are we for or against Cat Sire now? And we otter be careful about how closely the river rats follow, lest they block our retreat from whichever side we are fleeing from?

Hmmm would a royal decree naming you Lord and making you the head of the royal treasury make you less flappable ?

Royal Decree: The following items are banned :bananas, cotton wool and coat-hangers

DixieGal · 07-01-2009, 05:02 PM

Well, I do like money... I wonder if Zeep would enter into a bidding war against you for my loyalty?

Edit: BTW, what exactly is cotton wool? I know what cotton is, and I know what wool is, but they are not particularly compatible for mating genetically, you know?

Catire needs to spemd more time reading. A good history of the Russian revolution might just persuade him that being royal is not a good idea.

Your first task it to figure out whether "the blue one next to the fish" actually exists or if it is an obsession my people have.

pfff. the fact that you question the existence of the blue one next to the fish does make me question whether you have the innate qualities required to float along with / propagate the dada Weltanschauung we hold so dear in these parts.

pfff ! if zeep *had* any money (not the case) she surely wouldn't spend it trying to defend a title which is purely honorific to begin with, and therefore loses any intrinsic value it may once have had the instant it requires purchase !

The Tsars didnt have squirrels to protect their power, I do.

Here is a picture of me giving a medal of valor to one of the royal marines.

zelda_pinwheel · 07-01-2009, 05:11 PM

ps catire, just so you know, the jetboots are unrelated to the title. i'm keeping those.

Uh, I likey, but one problem... doesn't it look like I just might kill my new horse??

I'm for whatever side appropriately furnishes me with sword and horse. And, since Lady Blue did that, I'm on HER side!! wahoooo!!!!!!

zelda_pinwheel · 07-01-2009, 05:13 PM

also, the squirrels are mercenaries independent contractors, and as such, i would advise against relying on them too heavily. they seem to ally most reliably with adrian, and we all know what a free radical *he* is !

See there is nothing illegal about my rise to power.

That was just merely a ruse to keep pshrynk

. I know the blue one next to the fish exists, I saw it today behind the Peanut Butter in the Royal Kitchen, I am having it cleaned and polished because it was dusty.

Well the royal treasure was full of Rutabagas when my crack troops stormed it, but DixieGal didnt know that
