I can definitely see the Supers using them as personal transports around Kandor City and the Watchtower.

Equal day and night, from the Endeavor (The large version is 4095x2691).
I think we should put this one into the Fenspace scrapbook... -Rob Kelk "Read Or Die: not so much a title as a way of life." - Justin Palmer, 6 June 2007 -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them.

Rocket Girls. The entire series. There's enough understated wackyness in this series for two
Fenspace story arcs. And I can't help but think where the characters would fit into Fenspace, even though we agreed "no fictional characters". Yukari would be at home on Ptichka's bridge, Matsuri just might show up in Stellvia main control, Akane could end up anywhere (but I see her on either Hephaestus or Grover's Corners), Satsuki-sensei would likely wind up somewhere in the Artemis Project, Motoko would get along wonderfully with Kohran but God help Fenspace if they ever met, and the Director would likely gravitate to the Benjamin Franklin...

And yes, I've said and the consensus agreed to no more crossovers. That said, if anybody were to write a story using characters from Rocket Girls in Fenspace... I would be sorely tempted to make an exception. Not saying I'd do it, mind, just that I'd be tempted.

Sorry about that...
Mind you, Motoko could show up without breaking the rule - she's a suitable template for a Scott-series android, after all. (No, I'm not going to write her into Fenspace that way. I already have Kohran in the role she'd fill.) -Rob Kelk "Read Or Die: not so much a title as a way of life." - Justin Palmer, 6 June 2007 -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them.

Rare blue diamond breaks auction world record
It's only a matter of time before some Senshi decide to start making coloured diamonds on purpose - they're already turning out diamondoid by the ton, after all... -Rob Kelk "Read Or Die: not so much a title as a way of life." - Justin Palmer, 6 June 2007 -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them.

I'm sure some enterprising smuggler will already be waiting to fly them down to Earth and do an end run around the diamond cartel...-- Bob

I think I've finally found Noah's wristwatch. I'm just not sure which one he has...

If Noah likes those, what about this from the same company? Of course if he wants things like the date he'd need this, or if he wanted to be obtuse he could use this.
Or he could get Sora or Kohran to reprogram this. ![[Image: wink.gif]](http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif)

Not exactly a *site* but it's sure as hell inspirational to me. I've been tracking this down for weeks, and I finally managed to get my hands on Takara's miniature Buran model:

Why there's a high-powered laser on Stellvia: Officially, as a communications backup. Unofficially, in case the 'danes go ahead with this anyway.

Okay, fine... Stellvia now has a dress code. Specifically, none of this 'Dane "spacewear" crap.

No doubt the Minor Planet Center has a presence in Fenspace. They'd likely be one of the very few organizations connected to both the TSAB and Project Artemis.
The first OS I ever used has gone open-source. Which means by 2013, Stellvia's non-sentient computers will all be running an updated version of Multics. (Not one of Kohran's projects, for a change - Noah will have thrown money at the problem and got a few real programmers in to update the kernel. Should anyone want to create a computer programmer character for Fenspace, here's a job for his, hers, or its backstory...) -Rob Kelk "Actually, my goal is to write neat stories.
