[MarineTech]

Xphr, and his Myconid assistants, were fired from their Safety Directorate positions by Cosmic Spaceways after the Stellar Princess disaster off Deneb VII. All crew and passengers, except XphR and his assistants were killed when they tried to evacuate from the ship, but instead, fed themselves into the waste management system.

[Sizzles]

MarineTech has Xphrs corpse in a cryo-pod and is currently en route to meet Kali Liao on Highspire, where they intend to make use of the Great XphR's mortal shell in some obscure ritual . . .

. . . Meanwhile . . . Stomping and I are trying to figure out how to pilot a dropship . . .

I would have no problem landing this baby, except that earlier Sizzles took the instructional manual for a coloring booklet and covered nearly every page in sharpies of every color of the rainbow. While every new page is certainly a visual sensation to behold, it does nothing to improve our chances of survival.

However, he missed the paragraph about the built-in wall toasters. So at least they work.

[MarineTech]

StompingOnTanks is currently standing at 47 to 1 odds of becoming a crater on Highspire very shortly.

But at least he'll have toast.

Marack Drock knows that the stuff between Victor Davion's feet is, in fact, not cheese, but is going to watch MarineTech eat it anyway...and say nothing.

[Sparks Murphey]

blackcatf is publishing a report showing a distinct correlation between proximity to cheese and/or Victor Davion, and rhyming about gnolls. The broader scientific community is skeptical, but he'll show them!

He'll show them ALL!

[MarineTech]

Marack Drock evidently has a "thing" for Victor Davion's feet.

Dude. You need to speak to your doctor about increasing the dosage on your meds and upping the voltage on your treatments. They ain't makin' it.

[MarineTech]

Marack Drock is not willing to take my advice. Even when it would evidently improve his situation.

[Sizzles]

As it would turn out, all of the events leading up to this moment were masterminded by MarineTech, in an attempt to capture, and permanently destroy the Satanic Urbanmech from Page 83.

All of this work -it would turn out- had been done in vain. For as he was about to summon the machine and bind it to the mortal shell of Xphr. The supposedly "dead" man sat upright and proclaimed; "I'm not dead yet."

[StompingOnTanks]

Sizzles, thankfully, was able to google search me a PDF of the dropship's flight manual for me to read. I was able to steer us away from the planet just in time.

However, we are now on a collision course with the Death Star and, since he ALSO colored in my cell phone screen, neither of us can operate the gun turrets. So for the past half hour we have been shooting at TIE Fighters out of the window with our 9mm service pistols, and they aren't too intimidated. Sizzles tells me he just felt the bump of the tractor beam.

I assume this means we get to meet Darth Victor Davion.

[StompingOnTanks]

Marack Drock is on the hook right now, because he runs the Storm Trooper Shooting Academy.

[Sizzles]

Stomping isn't the least bit worried about meeting Darth Victor.

He has already hatched a daring plan to appease the great House Lord with a delicious plate of perfectly toasted bread. On it shall be a precisely measured dollop of butter. A light sprinkle of ground cinnamon and sugar. And along side, an expertly heated cup of the Inner Spheres finest coffee. He is convinced that with this gift, he will be able to gain the good graces of the great Lord.

Now he just has to figure out the proper toaster settings . . .

[Sparks Murphey]

Sizzles knows that Lord Vader prefers his toast...



...on the dark side.

[Sizzles]

Drock does not believe in toast.

[Tank]

Sizzles keep coming at Periphery markets asking for Clan hunches too often, somehow he always evades AC20 shells that they fire after each time he asks.

[Sizzles]

This is only because Tank keeps directing me to the most obscure and generally 'rough' markets on the Periphery.

[Nightmare1]

Sizzles has successfully secured a role in the upcoming Predator remake that will be released in 2020.

[Son of the Flood]

Nightmare1 is running for President in 2016. His running mate will be Kung Fury and his campaign manager will be the Governator.

[MarineTech]

Son of the Flood is hoping for a cabinet position in Nightmare1's administration. He's holding out for Director of Moist and Soggy Land Area Management.

[StompingOnTanks]

MarineTech is also running for president; his most notable trait is that he is forming a new branch of the military that will primarily be in command of drones, mechs and other robot-related military technology and its use in combat. He is putting Megatron in charge of it.

So far his popularity polls aren't looking good, despite his promises that Megatron will only blow up every country BUT the USA.
