Oh, great. Now I gotta get squirrels in the plot.

And who knew the Nazis invented the interwebs back in 1938?

badgoodDeb · 11-19-2008, 01:02 PM

Goodness! Where did Ingrid come from? She's new here!

pshrynk · 11-19-2008, 01:05 PM

Here.

DixieGal · 11-19-2008, 01:07 PM

Oops! I forgot it was 1938. I went back and fixed it.

badgoodDeb · 11-19-2008, 01:08 PM

Oh yeah. Well then, carry on, Ingrid!

DixieGal · 11-19-2008, 01:11 PM

She's just taking up space right now. I think she would be a much better operative is she didn't have a yard full of heathens, but what can I say? She loves her (Catholic) Japanese husband very much. So, even though she's a lousy baker and a Lutheran, there's always a bun in the oven.

He waited in shadow. He was torn. He was needed elsewhere. The Master was in need. But he was contracted to this plot. Torn. This was going to sting.

His being torn in two, he sent a part of himself to the Master. The rest, the part with the most anger stayed here.

He checked his operatives, who chittered and screamed in a side dimension.

All was ready. He chewed a banana... waiting.

It's like you can read my mind like a book! (Tell me, is it Little Golden Book, or Dr Seuss?)

Harv helped haul the last of the cylinders into the sailboat. He checked the rollers to see that they were clear. The time for action was coming up swiftly. He hoped that the socks knew what they were mumming about. As he straightened up,, he saw that Miyatake had the squid held to Vera's head.

"Now, I am afraid that our time has come to an end, Mr. Wallbanger, Miss Vera."

"Don't suppose I could talk you into just sailing away and leaving us here, could I?"

"That would be imprudent, I am afraid. We must get ourselves out of the country as quickly as possible after delivering our packages."

"Okay. I guess then, there's only two things to say."

"What would that be, Mr. Wallbanger?"

"First, you talk too much, second, now."

"Now?"

"NOW!"

Then, several things happened at the same time. Since this is not the movies, where large actions can be shown simultaneously and in split screen, we will describe them sequentially. Pay attention, because the special effects were very expensive.

[suddenly a loud pop-snap and the smell of ozone]

The parachute ballooned up, covering Miyatake as Vera pulled away and dove for cover.

The socks, Lefty and Hugo, were furiously rubbing themselves against the fabric of the parachute. Sparks cascaded from it like chain lightning.

Hugo and Lefty to the rescue !!! :yay !!:

psockpuppet · 11-20-2008, 03:07 PM

"Hugo?"

"Yeah, Lefty."

"This feels wrong."

"I'ts for the greater good, Lefty. Try not to worry about it."

"Okay."

Taylor514ce · 11-20-2008, 03:08 PM

Post #431, my legacy of stage craft. I'd claim Hugo and Lefty, but of course they, by definition, have a life of their own, and their genesis can be credited to Neko and Zelda. But the loud pop-snap and the smell of ozone, that's all me, baby.

I am inordinately happy.

EDIT: Zelda, stop reading my mind.
