Foolishly Cool. - itsune9tl - 03-05-2007
Eh? What ever...
When my little brother brought home a five gallon bucket of Plot-Hole-Goo I stole a gallon, and told him about it a month later.
After a bit of experimentation I found that I could feed the 'goo a base mixture of gelatine, sugar water, and it would double in volume over night. Five days later I poured most of the 'Goo, except a quart for seed stock, into the cleaning sink in the garage. The next day I went out and bought an old, dirty yellow, electric powered Vespa and spent the next week rebuilding the scooter using the 'Goo to clean the assorted parts.
When I was not working on the Vespa I was researching on what I would need for survival once I reached space. I figured that I would need a space suit, a weapon, and a Job.
The space suit was easy I bought a set of Riding Leathers, a helmet, goggles, boots, gloves and a scarf, and soaked them in 'Goo and washing soda. For a weapon I took my Father's Electric Guitar and dropped in the Cleaning Sink over night. For work I figured that I would make small parcel deliveries, and mail runs. I had no intention of ending up as a pirate at the time.

well now that I'm feeling a bit better, lets reply to what other people have posted... one post? Oi, fenspace has been going downhill.

Are that ominous clouds gathering?

*BOOM! Crash! Ominous thunder.* And so the sewers where never be the same again. It also explains where the biomodded albino aligators came from.
It actuall took me a more detailed reading for commenting to find the FLCL refernce. I blame the fever.
It's an interesting enough prologue, so I hope you will expand it.

Possibly.

How does one dispose of used Plot Spackle?
Do Reavers come from toxic wavium that is improperly disposed of?
Did Melvin fall into a truck load of Toxic wave?
Or, are the Boskonians buying the stuff on the cheap?
Oh and while I am asking questions,
Does any body mind if I unofficially take partial responsibility for spiking the Buffet at "That" Con?.
Re: Foolishly Cool. - itsune9tl - 03-07-2007
Talking Head time...
Shortly after modding the Vespa, the riding gear, and guitar, I realized that I now had about fifteen gallons of Plot Hole Goo. My first thought was "What to do with the rest of the goo?". This is what I call an OMGWHID moment, meaning Oh My God! What Have I Done. I called my Little Brother.
The conversation went something like this...
"Hey Bro What's happening?"
"I have a bit of a problem."
"Oh?"
"Remember when you brought home that bucket of Goo?"
"The Handwavium? What did you do?"
"I borrowed a gallon of it to play with."
"... Just a sec let me grab a note pad."
"Your not mad at me are you?"
"I am, but I'm more worried about what you did with the 'Wavium."
"Ok."
"Don't Worry, I'll get you for that later."
"Right."
"Did you eat any of it?"
"No. ... Should I eat some of it.?"
"NO! We do not know what it would do a living creature."
" ..."
"What did you feed it with?"
"The first Gallon I used Unflavored Gelatine, and sugar water.
"I see and after that?"
"I poured it in the solvent tank allong with eight boxes of instant Jello."
"How long did you let it sit?"
"About five days.
"That should give you between 25 to thirty Gallons. What were you going... Scratch that. What did you us it on?
"I used it to clean parts to rebuild that Vespa I bought."
"Tell me that you used a pair of gloves for that."
"Yes. I also used it to treat some riding gear, and dipped Dad's old Guitar in the stuff."
"I see. Any affects?"
"I haven't tried to ride the Vespa, the Leathers seem to be OK now that they haved dried, and the Guitar shines a bit brighter than it did."
"One more question, then I'll bring some guys to check things over."
"... O-kay..."
"What flavor of Jello?"
"Lime and Cherry.
"O.K. We'll be there in about an hour. I'll yell at you when I get there. Then we'll go over every thing you've done. So Don't go any where. Oh, We'll bring an empty drum with us so don't drain the tank yet."
"Right. See you then."
"Laterz."

No doubt the rumour mill has added "combat android" to the Professor's list of creations (technically true - one of his androids does use a rifle on occasion), and a few sufficiently-clued-in folks may have figured out one or more of Noah's assistants is an android...

For that matter can we lock down where "That Con" took place? at least as far as country and state any ways.

So where would the Professor have been prior to November 2007?
Quote:East Coast US; beyond that we haven't locked it down in specific. And of course con schedules are so flipping sketchy that it's hard to figure out what's happening when... by the timeline it could be Dragon*Con, Gaylaxicon, Necronomicon, the World Fantasy Convention or Philcon, at least by the listing I was able to track down.---

Well the timeline (which I'm sure is poseted on the board somwhere, ah well put it up on the character thread as it should be now.) is not quite in sync with the universal timeline, but it will have to make do until adjustment can be made.
The Prof first started making the news on the 25'th of July, and the hit on paris was in early October.
although at this point he is only known as a criminal madman, it's not until late november that he gets any positive press coverage, though I do not know how long his reputation among the fen spend recovering, but it should probably take a while.
