So now _you_ get to take your lover's attacks.

This I'm used to. (requesting scorpions)

I would prefer the two of you to have your fights out of the public eye.

Consequence: I Hate My Friends

Aspect: Vase of Ashes

Aspect: Flying Ghul Mummies!

How quickly can you collapse the temple?

Not as quickly as she can.

Mummies remain mummified even when they are immobilized.

But they were only my illusion, Victor! It was obvious.

Noxious substances in one's pocket

Oh that did happen! Well, now we're even. So, what are we going to do about those mummies.

Why would you want to hyp Victor?

When he becomes a power hungry meglamanical

how could you tell thedifferntce

he becomes slightly less annoying

he stops sayin should and starts saying shall

Sounds wet

Alice, can we put some kind of lock on victor's mind?

How about we put a lock on the door instead?

So I'm protecting him body and mind

I feel so manly

What, hiding under Alice's skirts?

Hey, they are very strong skirts.

Yes, they are.

So Victor has too many bas right now? I've lost track of how many bas he has. You're not making a very good sheep.


Aspect: Alice's Eyes Are Closed

Aspect: Giant Mf'g Snake In My Mf'g Temple

I'm ure that if you rubbed martain against my scales you cd build up a lovely static charge

we'll call that plan b

I'm never goingto get the stain out of these gloves

Just put it down

Statueof liberty

Do you think Khentykawes might be angry with us?

If you want to be Absolutely Safe, just kill Victor

And burn my heart

And burn his heart

Mind I don't endorse this plan

While Victor has the most atrocious history possible, I'm afraid we're just going to take him as he is.

And anyway myfather isn't atrocious in the slightest and that's all my history -- unless you count all of faerie.

I wonder if that could be your other parent -- did we ever find out who that was.

NO.

All right then.

Why not? All right I admit having a bunch of power hungry maniacs coming after me for my heart because they think it will resurrect a dead dark queen who will reward would be mildly inconvenient, but other than that I dont see the problem

Really victor, we scheduled Thursdays for that sort of thing. I Really don't want to take another day out of my schedule for that.


All right. First ordr of business: I need to get a new coat

I don't think you'll find one in the middle of the desert

Besides we have to fly to new york

SO we do

I can't believe that I'm suggesting the sensible course of action

Catch prhases a la DERPG

Can new martians disguise themselves as humans or faeries

We've never seen a new martian

One is probably a member of the ker club

We're seen what they claim they look like

If there's another one of these buried under ny... we need to good to ny

You mean before manhattan is excavatd

it sounds dirty

you live in london

it's completely different -- its filled with English

Oh for an american, lincoln is quite deboinnaire

No, he is a rather interesting specifimen even for an american

To be fair she said nothing about the babenga. they do not live in ny, taht I know of

Let's start with the Lip

Hey! The lip is very refined

I like the lip!

And his associates --

Some of them are very refined.

Is this the 1st time you've been outside of eng and france?

We went to ireland

So you did. Is this the first time you've been more than 500 miles outside of eng?


Bathing sounds terribly wet

no, I oil myself. It's not the same thing at all

If you pick up oil it's wet

No, it's oily

Two pieces of metal in oil rub against each other smoothly. 2 pces in water don't. Trust me on this. And metal covered in oil doesn't rust.

We are disccusing oil

And watter and slipperyness

So. We were going to fly an island!

To NY!

V: 6 -> 7

S: 6

A: 8

R: 5

I say we park it on Columbia and take the railway down from Harlem

Are you particularly unhappy with Columbia this week?

Mid Pennsylvannia

Why? There are people all over the Eastern Seaboard.

Bottom of the Atlantic?

So, gravity works faster for you

George Mace

Angelina Durless

Nina Hopkins

Deosa

Dr. Hollingsworth

You were a bad influence!

Always my dear. Those are the best sort.

I don't think that's a compliment.

Do you have an opera appropriate suit?

No!

My opera appropriate suits are really esy to pack

I am going to polish my hair

I want to fly over what will be central park to make sure no fairies

You can just telepath it -- who cares?

But letters!

Kristen gets it.

If nothing else, you can send urchins.

Urchinmail!

Everywhere's an exit when you have an alice

Giant stretches of wilderness have no business being near a city

The giant stretch of wilderness feels the same way about the city

Is he related to you? I've noticed everyone annoying is related to you.

So you are saying that we are left with the horrible choice of either allowing the New Martians to invade or damaging art?

Alice, how do you say "princess" in Martian?

It's a combination of the words ruler, beauty, and danger.

Danger is only in there as a side effect! It's a corruption!

Yes, it's a suffix. But, nevertheless, it is there.

How did he recognize you?

He's a peasant. She's a princess.

Or she can just deprive it of oxygen

That was my plan yes

Chemistry works

Actually i was planning to deprive it of air

Oxygen is more difficult?

Sorting the atoms one at a time

You have enough precision to do so?

With time, I can meditate


Barley and wheat

it was when i had more patience

It is a green crystal beacon that you could perhaps

Hulk Smash!

Are you really a full inch taller than sophronia in this form?

It's the inert remains of mutually annihilating light.

Yes!

That hurts my head so much.

Photographers club

Why the big flashing light cured his headache

So, who's the away team this time?

Shard of crystal

You want to give them harmless boring thin?gs?

Yes! Yes! That is correct! Funny that you should notice that! What is _wrong_ with you people?

Moderate consequence of concussed

You did not have to hit qute that hard. yes, you are forgiven. but you id not have to hit quite that hard

3 bulbs mirrors

I am inspired by the opera! also sneaking up on ascendant light bulbs

I really like the opera its a shaeme to do this but you know malum necessarium

I hear truth is found in the shaows....

OMG I hate these martians but that is not an aspect.

watch the thusands of pretty bridies

So we have never hd an uncon martian cultist to work on. Alice could you work on their minds.

one big and three small crystals

one old martian

two martian cultists

shard of first beacon for sidhe

S: 2 -> 5 V: 2 -> 7 R: 0 -> 5 A: 4 -> 8

Medical attention, yes.


Are you sure there will still be a house?

Of course there will! They've had plenty of time to rebuild it if they destroyed it.


Victor, do you have long heart to heart talks with _your_ family?

No.


I have reached a new agreement with Gregory, and her ladyship should know

Her ladyship doesn't know about the old arrangement

You could wait fifteen years until the heir to the babenga comes to visit


May I point out that none of you know the first thing abnout _Pennsingtons_

We've been there

We know you

We may nopt know the 4th thing about Ps. But we know the first

S: Yes, like where it is. I can point to it on a map

I can't believe I unmderstand this better than victor. Alice what havbe you done to my head?

Helped

Thank you

Why does she get all the credit

She startede earlier

S never lets me get into her head

A, I let you into my head all the time. And they you get it into trouble

I just want to see what's inside

Five martian crystals on an island full of new martian technology. There's no way this can possibly go wrong.

Three small and one large

Marcus G. Brooke aka The Old Martian

The inconsistencies are really quite clear when you stop to look at them./..

I did notice all of that, too. You're a better me than me!

It realy disappoints me that lies work better than truths...

Didn't we scream that at him at some point?

Still a lie

Some form of pointing ouyt

Your rationalization is at Godlike

So the thing that resonates with sopghronia is resonance

Amgelina is the least noble nobel other than you

Other than YOU

Oh that's right I'm noble, I keep forgetting that

I wonder why

We have left rather a trail of bodies behind us

Only... ONly... all right, we did leave quite a few, but the only one who was human was human was Murray

I don't think Murray is dead

Well, we know you can survive falling off an island

So, if you want to take over his mind and adujust

Oh please, that's boring. Also unethical

Also, my job

Yes, still unethical

No need to be redundant

So your idea that he had a nervous breakdown? It's true

I'm Psychic!

Right. Don't tell people the truth anymore. It doesn't work

A Clumsy Con performed at Mundane +3ish

Why is lying more efective than the truth

because people want the world to be a better place than it is

This may not be the berst example

Do we have a better example?

Not if we can help it


JJ Astor convinced double con

JJ Astor will bury Martian Opera

Jacoby is Getting Rest at Lincoln's

Keyhoe now realizxes the truth

Old Martian staying in NYC

Deosa? Stying in USA with job for Lincoln and stipend from R's 3 resources

Keyhoe? Coming home on island

Jacoby? Coming home on island


Josh: Better than to stay where Astor doesn't like him

So we traded Deosa for two ex cultists

Oh and I didn't get my coat. All I got was this evening ware.

Where do you park the island?

Alice: Obviously we park it in pennsington

R: We have a lake big enough

Emregency splash location wd be Irish Sea

Entire Pennsington village and manor there to greet you

Don't shoot! We're freindly

Oh don't be ridiculous, G. Of course we knew it was you

Did you hear that there was a flying island or just figure that that was the sort of thing G wd do?

The latter

Oh, I suppose that makes more sense

Coat

You're going to buy it off a rack?!

It must be nice to buy things off a rack.

Are you TRYING to keep my relatives from leveling up?

Yes I am

Leveling up means losing a bunch of NPCs


She is not saying did G write. She is saying did R write.

Did I think of that?

General consensus: I don't think you thought of that.


Letter from Alice to Winston

Letter from Sophronia to Talos

Dear Talos

Back in England here is all the things we did looking forward so much to seeing you sure you'll have made wonderful progress on becoming an even better person than befrore,

Love Sophronia


Subtext: Dear father, we are back in England, did some cool things, thank you for looking after TALOS, love Sohphonisa

We're really bad at communicating

Just like a regular daughter and father

Trans: BNe proud of me be proud of me be proud of me

Curled up invisible on shelf

Are you trying to listen too?

I don't see any reason to. Oh wait, truth is found in the shadows, dammit. And also curious about curiosities

And also we're just bad people

And I fully expect you to be

The first thing you need to know is that if you decide to exectue me, there will be witnesses. However, they won't all be sympathetic witnesses, so that won't do me any good.

Even q victoria makes a royal procession, Reginald!

I suppose I will have to take him as he is

Oh dear I really am the PH. At least I amn in love with a brazen lass.

We will be sure to do that!

I'm not invincible

Yes Alice, you're not invuln either

I'm in your heds listening to your conversations

He never did _propose_...

Is that a thing I can do?

Let's assume it is. Will you?

I think it would look imporper if I didn't at this stage? Oh god alice. ...

Let me rephrase. Do you _want_ to marry me?

That is a dif questions

Yes, yes it is.

But really do you think any priest is going to conesnt to marry a human man to a clockwork faerie

Yes

So you're going to talk at someone until he agrees

And at some point, I am going to have to tell my father

I am going to have to tell my father

But you know all our wedcding are going to be disasterours aqnd i don't want two monstrous things to trample all over everything at once....

Trouble at christening supposing there will be a c'g

just invite All of Them!

But I don't like some of them!

That's true of All C'gs!

But the Lady M will give her something awful even if do invite her!


Dear Sophronia,

I am glad you are back safely.

Your cousin, Talos

We have to get back to London Right Now!

We'll take the train.

The Train is Slow!

It'll give her time to calm down.

W@hy does she to be calm.

Letter!

Carpenter to make a suite for Sophronia

Victor to london

Coat

Okay, it can't be that hard to find a giant freaking robot

Youd be surprised

I believe my friends may have learned how to use sarcasm

I don't know what you mean. I am completely calm and rational on this matter

your tailor is talking to victor re coat apparently he is trying to get it tailored after all

oh good

slightly green -- to hide better

Did I mention this letter?
