[OOC] The Last Kings of Orion

[Igraine]

Oh that is SO COOL Kuro! I don't have a clue what it is, but rocks of all kinds are awesome (big geek who finds going places like this ridiculous fun!) The article - that suit Lil! Stepping into the void of space doesn't have to mean you can't be fashion forward!

eta: sorry, still a little functionally derpy this morning - awesome post Dot! And yes Road, everyone gets a nickname - EVERYONE... But since they're clever and kinda cute, all good!

[KuroTenshi]

One small step for man

One giant leap for HIGH FASHION!

[idlehands]

Ohh that's a pretty sparkly. I'll read those articles once I get a chance today.

[KuroTenshi]

They're called meteorite pallasite

[idlehands]

Look at this!

Space saving by grafting. That is awesome.

[KuroTenshi]

Whoa cool!

[idlehands]

I'm going to use grafting a lot for the food plants, it is not that hard to do as long as the plants are related.

Also, ketchup and french fries in the same plant is a win.

Or salsa and vodka, but each to their own.

[idlehands]

Hah, true.

Grafting is probably one of the oldest gardening tricks in the book but that plant still looks cool as hell. Not sure if it would really be necessary or even worth since the plants aren't that big. Now, fruit tree grafting would be definitely useful as they take up more space. Stuff to play with. But onto writing.

I'm going to move Ester and Naomi out of the briefing, I assume it's over all but Gavin's introduction. I still haven't written it so if AmongHeroes posts first that would be great.

French fries and vodka? Or is that too much potato...

LOLOLOLOLOLOL too much potato. Dot made a funny.

[KuroTenshi]

in random news I found some pictures for Connor's ridiculous amount of celtic knot tattoos XD they've been added to the bio

[RoadRash]

Guys! GUYS! THIS! This is a thing!

Real Human Skeletons! For Sale!

They're like, $6,000!

I want one! I could assemble him over the summer, and add little hinges to give the joints strength.

I would name him Jim-bones, you see, and we'd be the best of friends. I could talk to him while I do homework, and dress him in fancy hats, and tell him secrets, and he'd never, ever judge me or think I was weird for owning a human skeleton. I could get a sidecar for my Harley, and he'd ride along with me, dressed in goggles and an old aviator helmet, and a scarf.

He'd insist on the scarf, because while Jim-bones may be dead, his sense of class certainly isn't!

Oh, what adventures we would have...

[idlehands]

I'll be a real friend and tell you you're weird for owning a human skeleton.

That is pretty freaky though.

[KuroTenshi]

...You are a strange guy Road

[idlehands]

Yeah but that makes him fun.

RoadRash - I get the image of the skeleton sitting in the sidecar... a cigarette in the one hand and a can of beer in the other....

Idle - Oof! That post tugged at my heartstrings a bit, gotta say!

[idlehands]

Thank you, Justric. I gotta say I felt the pressure with that one, handling Igraine's story within my own post.

[Igraine]

That Celtic knotwork is just gorgeous Kuro *big thumbs up with SO much approval!*

vodka and salsa...

You did an amazing job with that dialogue for Ester and Naomi, Idlehands. I'm sorry that you felt the pressure on that one, totally didn't mean to do that to you there! >< Still, a fantastic post, and thank you for wrapping all that in so beautifully!

eta: RoadRash = strangely awesome...

[KuroTenshi]

Thanks Igraine!

Idle gave me the idea for the raven's :)
