I, personally, would like to give a big round of applause to those who managed to get a method of transportation working AFTER we slogged through a wasteland full of mortal danger.

What wonderful timing.

I was starting to feel a little like one of the Israelites, wandering with no sense of direction in the desert for 40 years.

Oh, I remember ... dreaming about them. It was too bad popcorn hadn't been invented or I could've made--

Well, nothing, but at least I'd have had something to eat during the entertainment.

[delightme]

You have very strange dreams, Sylvester.

[audio]

[trickntreats]

I deal in surreality of all types, bro. Besides, you can't tell me you didn't wish you'd dreamed popcorn into life earlier.

[audio]

[delightme]

I can't say I actually like popcorn.

[trickntreats]

Don't make me sit you down in a movie-theatre and indoctrinate you, now, Alexander.

[audio]

[delightme]

I think that would end bad for everyone involved.

[audio]

[trickntreats]

Hmnnnow that sounded like a challenge, bro.

[deshabille]

Ah, but we had compasses, which makes everything all right.

[delightme]

I was more referring to the utter waste of time it was, but yes, I suppose I should've picked a better analogy.

[deshabille]

You don't like exhaustion and mortal peril?

[delightme]

Yes, unfortunately. I know it must be strange. Try to bear with me.

[deshabille]

I don't know if I can handle these revelations.

[delightme]

It must be a shock.

[biomagnet]

Jeremy Daveen has opened communication!

Mortal danger?

[delightme]

Four words: attacked by jungle cats.

[biomagnet]

There are jungle cats out there?

[delightme]

That was the least of our worries, really, but yes.

[biomagnet]

Explain? What's out there?

[delightme]

Scores of environmental hazards and I'd venture more creatures. It's a hellish landscape.

John Gates has opened communication!

That was completely unnecessary. Really incredibly pointless.

[delightme]

Wonderful, you agree.

[tartanisstylish]

Yes, wonderful. Thrilling. It's a novelty. But to the point, there are better ways to build character. Community service, or something. Anything. Anything.

[delightme]

Oh, you didn't enjoy being burnt to a crisp and fending off wild animals? I thought it a blast.

[tartanisstylish]

Yes, I could tell you were enjoying yourself huddled in a crack in the rock.

[delightme]

The time of my life, really, right next to that time I--. [oh wait, pretending...] Well, that story's for a different day.
