-RPD: You know what I'm -- HIC! *goes incorporal*-
-D: I suppose this is her ending tribute to Narbonic. Ends this week, doesn't it?-
Yup. Dave and Helen are on the island, working out their relationship kinks. It promises to be an interesting ending. And at least it's not permanently going away -- Shaenon's giving us a Director's Cut version in the new year. :)
-RPD: Then why didn't you inflict this on -- HIC! *goes corporal*-
No one else here regularly changes forms.
-VD: All right, time to break whatever fourth wall this journal possesses, since I'm sure very few people here read "Narbonic" -- the comic strip includes a superintelligent talking animal, a gerbil named Artie. Artie eventually gained a human form thanks to further genetic engineering and, later, the ability to switch back and forth between the forms. Initially, this form-shift was caused by a bad case of the hiccups.-
-RPD: You knew I'd overindulge and get a case myself! HIC! *goes incorporal*-
Relax, you'll be better soon enough. I'm actually impressed you keep hiccuping while incorporal -- no diaphram.
-TD: Well, obviously he has SOME way of controling air flow -- he can speak, can't he?-
-HD: *grabs the sugar caddy* Here, spoonfuls of sugar are supposed to help hiccups.-
-DW: Or I suppose you could try meditation, like Artie did.-
-RPD: HIC! *goes corporal and takes the proferred sugar* No, if I meditate, she'll pull a Mell and pop a balloon behind me.-
I wouldn't! <.< >.>
-OD: *tentacles buzz mockingly* Sure you wouldn't.-
Ha.
Anyway, slept a bit poorly last night, so I'm really gonna try to make tonight a bit earlier. Not before writing a bit more on something, though. "Marty In Wonderland" is the obvious choice, but I feel I should do some edits on something. I also have an idea for a drabbles88.
-VD: Edits. You've been neglecting them.-
-TD: Or at least create a file for an aside. Writing for the canon characters, coupled with the reread you're planning, might refresh your batteries for "Boy Genius."-
Hmm, you have a point there. I also want to work out the plot kinks too. . . . I vow to have this uber-story done by next year, though.
-TD: *patpat* In the meantime, can I take control of any past and future Narbonic-themed drabbles88s?-
Sure, knock yourself out.
-D: I'm a little surprised our Narbonic Selves didn't become muses -- you were thinking about them pretty strongly for a while.-
Honestly, I'm worried about jealousy issues. A Sparky Marty does complicate things for the normal ones. . . .
-VDM: I'm okay with him visiting. He speaks Spark, he's a good translator if Ael's JigowattJohn isn't around.-
That's good. But yeah, they've faded some since, so I don't think they're muse-strong yet. More in TrilogyDoc and X-Doc's range.
-OD: Good point.-
Anyway, yes, probably do some "V.D." edits tonight, along with "Marty In Wonderland." *pets her Annotated Alice*
-WRM: When does the next chapter of that go up?-
Actually, I might put Chapter 2 up as a New Year's thing.
-HD: Excellent! Tea for everyone!-
Oooh, that reminds me -- you have to watch Father Ted with us, HatterDoc. I want you to see Mrs. Doyle.
-VD2: That should be interesting. I think she's more obsessed with tea than he is.-
-HD: O.O What?-
