The White Day surprises involving Marshmallow Fluff are especially appreciated, amirite?

Ang on... Thought that was the other way round, where if he gave chocoloate back (cept for giri) on white day. Gina leaving something for him sounds backwards.
And do I even want to inquire whats with the marshmallow instead of chocolate? My actual first thoguht about what might have been going on there was much more adult... Hear that thunder rolling till it seems to split the sky? That's every ship in Grayson's Navy taking up the cry- NO QUARTER!!! -- "No Quarter", by Echo's Children 
Nonono... On valentines day it's the usual routine - guys give girls chocolates. On White Day in Japan, the girls give gifts back the guys.
Besides, Ben's more of a whipped cream and dark chocolate syrup kinda guy. Marshmallow fluff is a bit too heavy on the sugar for his liking and lacking in something to counter all that sweetness.

Even our own solar system seems to be a strange thing... who dropped that large Handwavium energy core into Neptune?
Neptune's surface receives 160% more energy from its own core than it does from the Sun!
WHAT.
I bet the same applies to all gas giant planets. Under all that mass, I can imagine the Neptunian surface as being a roiling, boiling froth of liquid gasses as heat energy slowly escapes the core through compression. (Hint: We put radiator fins on the lines leading away from air compressor pumps for a reason.)

Now apply this to Fenspace... -- Rob Kelk "Governments have no right to question the loyalty of those who oppose them. Adversaries remain citizens of the same state, common subjects of the same sovereign, servants of the same law." - Michael Ignatieff, addressing Stanford University in 2012
"The incredibly loosely organized (they aren’t at all, really) “Anti” faction is a bundling term for those of us who aren’t really fen, but are in space because they like weirdness and hate ’danish thoughts. An Anti may spend a week drawing from Star Trek in their projects, then turn around and put a combined B5/Star Wars spin on things, parking a Starfury in an Excelsior docking bay and seeing nothing wrong with it. Antis are usually confused by factional rivalry."

In that case, Ben runs pretty damn close to being an Anti well maintaining good relations with most factions.
Sometimes I wonder why we put the Antis into Fenspace as a distinct subset of Fen when we already had the Neutrals in what appears to be the same niche... but it wasn't my choice to make.

And they've found another moon around Pluto.

Ebony the Black Dragon http://ebony14.livejournal.com "Good night, and may the Good Lord take a Viking to you." Ebony Wrote:Maybe they'll give it its Planet status back.Unlikely... the choice was either to make Pluto the first of potential many "dwarf planets" or announce later that the solar system had 10, 20 or more planets. Most likely the Kuniper belt contains more Pluto sized objects.

Well, quick substitution with the Hephaestus logo so, unless anyone's got a different idea. It does loose a bit of colour the original yellow/red Haynes logo provided
