20:57 <Crion> For what it's worth, the water's really quiet after the U Boat flees. Or retreats. But not too quiet. There's still waves and stuff. You'll probably be able to see it coming next time...if it comes back...and if it comes at you from the same just-beneath-the-surface depth. 20:58 <Crion> Welcome to the fair coastal waters of the state of Georgia! 21:01 <VoxPVoxD> Seems like once you get past Savannah, the Georgia coast is one long country club all the way down to Jacksonville. 21:02 <Crion> Jacksonville...legendary city in the annals of the Florida Man. 21:05 <CBN> It's not that Tony's unsettled necessarily, by having repelled a legion of angry dead. But he's definitely not happy that the mellow boating vibes have been so thoroughly cursed and fucked by this. So he's scowling looking at the horizon, regardless of the presence of the Peach state or whatever. 21:06 <Crion> Tony, for your part you're pretty sure the easiest way to keep this German U-Haul or whatever where you can see it is to get the boat into shallower waters. This means more Coast Guard stops, more avoiding the locals in their irregular, drunken boating patterns, and more general hassle in your wrastle, but it also means that if it wants to come at you, it won't be able to do so from the deep, 21:06 <Crion> and it'll have to get significantly less shy about running into the law. 21:06 <Crion> The Coast Guard might not be the Parks Service, but they can probably get the Navy in here real quick if they want. 21:06 <banana> Melanie hadn't encountered this problem before: trying to towel off makes her flake way too much bark. She's just going to find a warm cabin or hidden corner of the deck and drip for a while. Fuck the ocean, I guess. 21:07 <VoxPVoxD> Augh. 21:08 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart's not bouncing between Maggie and Melanie apologizing for getting them dropped into the ocean, because he knows that would be annoying. But he's thinking about it. 21:08 <CBN> Boat people are Tony's people (not going to dwell on what this means for Tony). And more importantly, boat people aren't boat skeletons. Besides: the big draw of high seas boating is better fishing, and it's impossible to maintain adequate fishing chill when you're wondering, on some level, when you're going to have to disarticulate undead with a shotgun. 21:09 <banana> Making the huge monster run away wasn't a bad thing, Stewart! 21:09 <VoxPVoxD> *anxious noises* 21:09 <dammitwho> Maggie, on the other hand, is toweling off very thoroughly. Eesh, that much salt water made her feel like she had ants in her pajamas. 21:11 <Crion> Lauren, who was Belowdecks the whole time -- sound doesn't actually travel through the portal into the Hollow unless it's physically open, you've noticed -- is sort of hovering around seeing if she can help anyone. 21:12 <Crion> "What the fuck was that?!" 21:12 <Crion> A bit grumpily, to Stewart: "I could've helped." 21:12 <dammitwho> "Skellington U-Boat!" 21:12 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "You coulda gone overboard, too!" 21:13 <Crion> Lauren: "My circuits are waterproof." 21:14 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "That's not the point!!" 21:15 <Crion> Lauren: "Also please, I'm not climbing onto the creepy Nazi submarine!! This is why they invented guns." 21:18 <Crion> Not great fishing in this tight to the shore...but you could have some beach days if you wanted. There's all sorts of little inlets to just drop anchor in and swim to shore. 21:18 <Crion> Closer you get to Flordia, hotter the water's getting, and the finer the sand. 21:19 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart tries to come up with an argument for why he doesn't mind if Nels is up on deck but does mind if Lauren is when they have basically the same fighting skillset that won't make them both mad at him. But he can't, so he says: "Okay fine. We'll come get you next time." 21:22 <Crion> Lauren: "Well, not if it means putting everyone else in danger...we need like, a ship alarm or something." 21:22 <Crion> "I dunno. Sorry, that was insane of me, you shouldn't have actually come get me. Just makes me feel useless." 21:23 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Really what we need is a turret." 21:23 <Crion> Well, there are regulations about that. 21:23 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Might need to throw a tarp over it outside of Florida waters though." 21:25 <Crion> Did you know "Desantis" is a patronym that translates roughly to "of the holy or devout?" Truly, Florida is a land of contrasts. 21:26 <CBN> Tony, as much to himself as anyone else, but definitely loud enough to invite conversation on the subject: "You know why we're running into skeleton wizard bullshit, right?" 21:26 <dammitwho> Maggie: "A ship alarm, eh? Tony getting to tell us to 'go to red alert' like that bald fella on TV?" 21:27 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Picard or Sisko?" 21:27 <Crion> Lauren: "Maybe with a big switch to throw. And flashing sirens." 21:27 <CBN> Tony: "We need a proper figurehead! Something big and fancy and majestically boatlike." 21:28 <CBN> Tony: "Seems like the kinda thing Florida'll have. They probably go in for that stuff. So, just keep an eye out. It's the missing piece here." 21:28 <dammitwho> Maggie shrugs at Stewart. 21:28 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart shows Tony something on his phone. https://i.imgur.com/kpJCeQO.jpg 21:29 <CBN> Tony stares. "How. Where." 21:30 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Just went up for auction. Sitting around $500, probably another $100 to ship. Easy." 21:30 <CBN> Tony: "But we need it in gold." It's very possible that captainship has destroyed Tony's brain. Or mild heatstroke combined with having a steady just-below-legal-limits BAC constantly. 21:31 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "I dunno, I think the bronze is classy." 21:32 <VoxPVoxD> "But worse comes to worst I bet Barbaddos knows a guy." 21:34 <Crion> Lauren, mock seriously: "Have to clear that with Summer Court." 21:34 <CBN> Tony, nodding emphatically. "Yeah. Yeah!" Skeleton problems a distant memory. Figurehead solutions are where it's at. 21:38 <VoxPVoxD> Anyway, Stewart is happy to take as many beach days and nights as the motley feels like they can afford to. 21:40 <CBN> If any spot along the coast looks more like a Jimmy Buffett kind of beach spot and less a country club adjacent beach spot, that's where Tony's going to angle for a beach day. 21:40 <Crion> Beach living means a lot of walking into town to buy beer, since you probably didn't bring a moped with you (perhaps a bike though). That said, single lane roads with the berm on one side and flat space out to the trees on the other...that's not bad. It's not a country road, but it's Americana. 21:42 <banana> Beaches are good. A lot better than the open sea maybe. Melanie's going to ask at some point during their meander: "Did we have an actual deadline? Bantham and Santander were pretty vague about timing... I might have missed something." 21:44 <Crion> You were never given an explicit deadline, because neither the Queen of Spring nor her Regency Council know how much time you have. In terms of timetable, all you were given was the date that Spring cedes to Summer -- June 20th -- as the hard end date after which Bantham's clear advocacy for Nels no longer has the force of Freehold policy. 21:44 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "No, we didn't have a deadline, because that would have required her to be giving us an order. Which she was absolutely, under no circumstances to be understood as doing." 21:46 <dammitwho> Maggie: "Also I'm pretty sure nobody knows how much time we have." 21:46 <banana> "Yeah. I guess we were all feeling pretty disenchanted with like.. the whole guilt by association thing over a single mistake, which renders everything else you've done irrelevant and so you have to go prove yourselves, but you don't have to.." 21:47 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Probably we want to get it done before the solstice." 21:47 <VoxPVoxD> "But that's still, what, 6 weeks away?" Right? 21:48 <Crion> Six or seven weeks, yeah. 21:48 <Crion> Let's say the larger part of six weeks rather than the thinner part. 21:48 <banana> Melanie: "Which at the rate we've travelled so far means we should probably aim to arrive.. nowish." 21:57 <Crion> Lauren: "Eh, we've probably got some time, right? I mean, we haven't been hurrying so far. How bad could dawdling be? Will Montgomery get super dead?" She snorts after that last. 21:59 <dammitwho> Maggie: "So, the way Orlando is a swamp with ideas above its station means we'll probably find it pretty easy to find trods that we can just sail up towards the city, landlocked or no. Heck, the regular Hedge might work too." 21:59 <Crion> Chup has settled into a clear plastic container that usually holds empty beer cans on deck. Lauren recently emptied it and rinsed it, so he has felt free to imperiously assume the shape of the container. 22:01 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Sailing in through a trod sounds good... but we're talking about maybe sticking our necks into some kind of internecine Keeper war. Odds are pretty good it will not be as smooth to sail *out* through the Hedge, and if we go in we're committed, since Orlando's landlocked." 22:01 <dammitwho> We should see if Chup recognizes a kindred spirit in Maru. 22:02 <banana> Melanie's amenable. "That would save both time and interactions with Florida." 22:02 <banana> "Just to check though - are casual Hedge-shortcuts the kind of hubris for we'd be narratively punished in an ironic fashion?" 22:02 <dammitwho> Maggie: "This whole freaking trip is that." 22:03 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "As long as we're prepared to fight our way out to save ourselves a shortcut and a car rental, I don't think we've got any other problems to worry about." 22:03 <VoxPVoxD> To Lauren: "Should we call ahead?" 22:03 <CBN> Tony: "Listen once we got skeleton problems, I think Hedge problems are going to be a...what's the word? Lateral? move." 22:04 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "It's only a lateral move if we're going from one to the other. We're talking about adding them together." 22:04 <banana> Nels appears to be belowdecks at the moment. Maybe seasickness again. Melanie glances at the hatch, but only says: "It's been a pleasant punishment most of the time. Really relaxing when not Pursued." 22:05 <Crion> Lauren blinks. "To who?" 22:07 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "I don't know, the vampire court? Someone's gonna be pissed off we arrived, unless they're desperately happy to see us, which is even worse." 22:09 <Crion> Lauren: "...I can check with Santander or Kinglsey, but I don't think we actually have any phone numbers for down here." 22:09 <Crion> "I mean. It's Florida. Generally you just stay the fuck out, if you can." 22:09 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Yeah, I figured if they had one they'd have given it to us already. I just don't like going in blind." 22:11 <banana> Melanie: "The local Hedge could actually be our best source of information." 22:11 <CBN> Tony: "I'm sure everything will work out. Besides, you know what we haven't had to deal with lately?" 22:11 <CBN> Tony: "Wizard bullshit! So the worst that can happen is that we have to deal with something we've already met before and not died from. And we're on a boat the whole time." 22:12 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "The U-boat could easily have been wizard bullshit. We don't know." 22:13 <CBN> Tony: "Well there you go! And we dealt with it, like we always do." 22:13 <Crion> Tony mentioned bringing the boat in for beach day -- big large chunks of the Georgia coast are state or federal parks that let people hang out on the beaches in various ways. Pretty easily to just pull into a cove at Wassaw Island, for instance, but if you want to pad on over to some place willing to restock you on Miller Lite, going a bit up the Wilmington River is advisable first. 22:13 <banana> "If you're a submarine necromancer, it's either that thing or you raise the Nautilus." 22:14 <Crion> Here's the really good news about Wassaw Island's beach, though: You're allowed to be there...and it's only accessible by boat. 22:14 <Crion> Maybe less good news when you think about how that inherent prices out most GA residents. 22:14 <Crion> But that's not you! 22:17 <CBN> Boat life is not about thinking about the ramifications of your actions or the systems that enable you to have boat life. It's about the lure of the high seas and the inviting embrace of warm sand on quiet beaches. So Wassaw Island sounds sick as hell, by those standards. 22:17 <VoxPVoxD> Honestly that's not even in the top 5 most upsetting things to think about if you let yourself actually relax as opposed to seeking some kind of oblivion. 22:18 <dammitwho> Boat life! Yar-ha-ha-harr. 22:25 <Crion> So far, the sea's been free and clear around you. No sign of a certain U-Boat lurking, and the depths aren't deep enough for it to fully hide from a cadre of committed nautical Changelings-in-training. But it's Melanie who spots it, either with a spyglass or just natural great eyesight, far on the horizon as it very briefly surfaces. It's pacing you...but even as she spots it, it vanishes 22:25 <Crion> and moves further away. 22:27 <Crion> Perhaps it's anthropomorphizing too much, but Die Besatzung seems maybe frustrated, maybe petulant...maybe hesitant. 22:27 <dammitwho> Shoo! 22:29 <banana> "Oh, buzz off." Melanie's eyesight is fine - fantastic, for someone who technically doesn't have eyes - but the main thing is, she's been waiting for this thing to come back. 22:30 <banana> Hollering: "Tony! We should stick to the coast again.. ten thousand skeletons are back.." 22:30 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart groans. 22:31 <CBN> Tony: "Ughhhhh." 22:33 <CBN> Tony: "What if we just go to shore at that beach, and dare them to attack on...sort-of-land?" 22:33 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "It'll just wait, won't it?" 22:33 <VoxPVoxD> "Not like a skeleton crew needs to refill on beer." 22:33 <VoxPVoxD> Heh. Skeleton crew. 22:34 <banana> Unless the Boat has weapons we haven't seen, it's not like it's going to kill the motley, but it could injure and majorly inconvenience them. How do we persuade it not to try? 22:35 <banana> Melanie: "I've thought of an incredibly dangerous last-resort way to attack it." 22:36 <CBN> Tony: "Go on..." 22:37 <Crion> If Melanie's not watching, Lauren will mouth 'Summer Court' at Stewart. 22:37 <banana> "You remember that rash of tornadoes they had at Easter?" 22:38 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart responds with both a knowing nod and a "let's hear her out" eyebrow shrug, like the Alonzo Mourning gif. 22:40 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Yeah, that was further west, right? Like Mississippi." 22:40 <Crion> Lauren doesn't object. 22:41 <banana> Melanie's ticking off points on her fingers, although this 'idea' is just an idle time-killer. Surely. "First of all, tornadoes are easy. The weather is basically... someone made a contract that really upset it and now it's easy to reproduce that anger." 22:42 <banana> "Second, the ocean magnifies the effects of extreme weather systems. Really magnifies.. it's a huge deep pool of energy, basically, full of heat and tidal forces, it feels like a stable place for a boat like this but it's really a ton of potential chaos." 22:42 <banana> "Third - so after the the skeleton boat came after us I was reading up on waterspouts." 22:44 <banana> "Did you know that even a land-based tornado can contain a hundred terajoules of kinetic energy? In a waterspout, the same amount of force is moving, not air, but WATER. Water's really heavy." 22:45 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Yeah, and they'll knock away all of Sonic's rings." 22:45 <banana> "Basically if any kind of watergoing vessel is actually struck by a waterspout, direct contact, you just get splinters. Smithereens. That applies to metal submarines, or whatever that thing is really made of. Also to us, in the case of.. imprecise aim." 22:46 <Crion> Lauren: "Or anyone else in the area." 22:46 <Crion> "And also like. All the fish?" 22:46 <VoxPVoxD> "It sounds powerful as a weapon of last resort." 22:47 <banana> Melanie: "Not the first resort at all." 22:47 <banana> "..I don't think anyone cares about fish though.." 22:47 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Depends on the fish, really." 22:48 <CBN> Tony: "There's a lot of fish in the sea though. There's a whole saying about it!" 22:49 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "I think the biggest practical risk is going to be to other people's property, in terms of consequences that might befall us. If we destroy a precious marine habitat and people can trace it to us we might get yelled at on the internet." Well, I might, none of the rest of you use it. "If the waterspout ends up tearing through yachts or a marina or something... hoo boy." 22:50 <Crion> Lauren: "Freehold doctrine is don't make the national news." 22:50 <Crion> "Just putting that out there." 22:51 <banana> Melanie: "Sure, it's a very reasonable rule." 22:51 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Yeah we can't get away with showboaty bullshit like deleting an entire police precinct." 22:51 <VoxPVoxD> "That is firmly wizard territory." 22:52 <Crion> Lauren: "Their bullshit doesn't look like bullshit." 22:52 <VoxPVoxD> "Yeah, it only sounds like it." 22:53 <VoxPVoxD> Wait does that count as a Stewartism? Fuck. 22:54 <banana> Melanie's had good success in the past, aiming the weather. Successfully keeping friends in little safe bubbles amid the storm or inferno.. it was actually a modified version of the contract, for which she's paid a Notgnixel merchant in printouts of old weird websites (Stewart is not the only one who knows what a computer is.. just the only one who knows how it works). 22:54 <banana> Whether she could carefully summon a storm that somehow localises its effects to avoid the entire Goose - or marina inhabitants - is a different matter. 23:00 <Crion> It's...Stewartism-adjacent. 23:07 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "I feel like if we just hug the coast we'll be okay, and so will everyone else who doesn't venture out into international waters." 23:08 <CBN> Tony: "If it's not going to hurt our beach days or make our Hedge travel, or other stuff, even more annoying...we can always do the last resort when it's our last resort, right?" 23:09 <CBN> Tony: "Maybe we can even do it at a resort! Maybe one with a swim-up bar..." 23:10 <banana> "We can pretend to ignore it like when Chup doesn't see a brush or a pill." 23:12 <Crion> Chup muows, eyes still closed, still fitting the shape of his container. 23:13 <CBN> Tony: "But to be clear...we can still have a beach day now right?" 23:13 <CBN> Tony: "Just a little one?" 23:14 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "No laws against it." 23:14 <banana> "And if we don't, the skeletal terrorists win." 23:15 <CBN> Tony brings the Wild Goose around towards Wassaw Island. Just for a little bit. They'll head on down the coast soon, surely. 23:17 <CBN> For his part, if nothing eventful springs up on the beach, he will get some (unneeded but not unwelcome) sun, have some beach beers, and try not to think about any random branches under the sand he might touch with bare feet actually being skeletal hands reaching up to choke the life from him. 23:17 <Crion> These aren't the picturesque beaches of your dreams (if they were, someone would have convinced the state of Georgia to steal the land back from the federal government so they could build a resort here) but they're perfectly acceptable sandbars with a bit of aesthetic driftwood about. 23:18 <VoxPVoxD> That sounds nice. As long as none of us are attacked and Lauren doesn't spontaneously combust again. 23:18 <Crion> Tony will need to go slightly out of his way to restock on supplies (beer; food; sunscreen; did y'all bring a grill?) but that's an hour or two at most and only takes you further inland. Easily done; easily prepped for some time on the sand. 23:19 <CBN> Going out of one's way to make a day even more relaxing is about as much moral calculus as Tony's willing to do, but he does it gladly. The greatest martyr of the beach: the guy who gets an hour less of it than anyone else. 23:21 <Crion> Lauren's going to bring Chup out for some air. Sadly Steve must remain Hedge-side. 23:25 <VoxPVoxD> Brilliant long-game play by Chup to come out for some air and then spend an hour getting all the sand brushed out of him later tonight. 23:25 <Crion> The Mask can still get sunburned, so Lauren will insist upon applying it to Stewart. 23:25 <Crion> Sunscreen, that is. 23:26 <VoxPVoxD> Safety first. 23:27 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart's injury healed, and it didn't even leave a cool scar. More's the pity. 23:35 <Crion> Got the chairs, got the umbrellas. Tide's rolling in...Lauren brings out the big guns: a battery-powered portable air pump and some damn inflatable rafts. 23:35 <VoxPVoxD> Ahahaha hell yes. 23:36 <dammitwho> That's great! Maggie's going to stay on the shore, though. 23:39 <Crion> Chup gets his own umbrella, and Lauren just carried him over in the damn bin. 23:39 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart's feeling very chill, and being out on the raft and actually feeling the ocean (which you mostly don't on the Goose unless the weather's real bad). "You know... being kinda soft-exiled isn't so bad." 23:40 <Crion> Lauren: "People like us almost never get to go on vacation." 23:40 <Crion> "So unless you're in like, the Freehold of Maui..." 23:40 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Do they have seasonal courts in the tropics?" 23:40 <Crion> Lauren: "I dunno! Man. Think about it." 23:41 <Crion> "Just organizing your entire court structure around...Vibes." 23:42 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Disco court, Witch house court, Breakbeat court, Noise court..." 23:43 <VoxPVoxD> "...dubstep court..." 23:43 <Crion> "Loyalists talking about how they like everything but rap and country." 23:44 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "That sounds better than fear and anger and sadness." 23:45 <VoxPVoxD> "The vibes thing, I mean. Not the other thing." 23:46 <Crion> Lauren: "I feel like in the end they all eventually wash out to around the same thing. There's almost nowhere on this planet that isn't angry or depressed right now." 23:46 <banana> Melanie is also not going on the water. Boats are fine but that's because they're relatively large. She'll make sure to thank Tony for the supplies when he returns - as effusively as is possible without getting out of a deckchair. 23:48 <Crion> The good thing about sandbars like this -- might not look great, but it's not loose sand, it's packed. So it's not really getting anywhere but your butt and your feet, unless you roll around in it. 23:51 <VoxPVoxD> Maybe later. The night is young. 23:53 <banana> If we're napping rather than chatting, this might be a good time to catch up on podcasts. Melanie's been working her way through the backlog of Philosophize this! and she's up to the one where the hosts drag Peter Singer for half an hour straight. Now that's effective altruism. 23:55 <CBN> Tony almost ruins his day contemplating whether the sand is close enough to dirt for his soil manipulation to let him move it around, but before he erects his first sandcastle, he just houses a full sixer and thinks about how sick it'll be to eat a whole swordfish instead. 23:57 <Crion> Good news: it's actually pretty perfect sand for sandcastles, as long as you don't care about that blonde-beer color to everything. Very packable. 23:57 <Crion> Did Tony bring molds or is he freestyling? 00:04 <CBN> Tony is absolutely freestyling. Molds are something that the kids today would use. 00:05 <CBN> He does, at least, have a sixer's worth of bottles to use to pack stuff down real hard, as needed. 00:05 <Crion> Lauren, meanwhile, is riding waves back in to shore on the inflatable. There's a bunch of seashells here but thankfully on this part of the sandbar, at this part of the tidal flow, they're not those really really tiny ones that cut up your feet. 00:05 <VoxPVoxD> Technically Stewart is supposed to be *recording* a podcast right now, but because he's the one who ends up herding the other streamers into showing up on time, if he begs off it's real easy to just let it slip. They're all starting to play some kind of multiplayer Mafia style game where you're tiny astronauts in a space station or something. 00:06 <Crion> Lauren's been playing that with the werewolves and Lister. She and Lister are cleaning up. 00:09 <VoxPVoxD> That almost seems unsporting. 00:09 <Crion> Especially once she got Lister's tics down. Weirdly the werewolves still seem to enjoy it though. 00:09 <Crion> No controller throwing like sometimes there is in Halo or PUBG. 00:10 <VoxPVoxD> People get mad real fast whenever they can't immediately shake the feeling that they fucked up because of their own execution. 00:15 <CBN> The main impediment to Tony's sandcastling, ultimately, is not his waning sobriety, but the fact that any sandcastle he makes ends up looking like the Wherehouse, which is not really a shape that works for building out and up, unless you just make a big sand cube and call it a day. Which he is not doing. 00:16 <Crion> Steve would appreciate it...as long as it has a little sand fridge. 00:16 <Crion> Who are we kidding. He'd appreciate it either way. 00:17 <banana> Melanie slides her headphones down for a moment. "Try a sandstadium?" 00:17 <CBN> Tony looks from the sand to Melanie and back a few times. "That's gonna be a bowl, isn't it?" 00:18 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "Do you know what the Magic Kingdom looks like?" 00:20 <banana> "Bowl with details. You've got bleachers, the field markings, boxes and teamrooms.." 00:24 <CBN> Tony: "Sorta...but you're both giving me an idea here." 00:25 <CBN> He plows over the sand, and starts anew. It's starting to look like a bowl. 00:26 <CBN> Weird bowl though. Kind of...almost rectangular. There's some walls shoring up three of the sides, which he's starting to make look vaguely castle-like. 00:28 <CBN> By the end, a keen eye can tell he's trying to go for Oriole Park at Camden Yard. It doesn't look too much like the real thing, but it does look like he's trying to make a half-remembered copy of the gift of The Oriole. The important thing is it looks like something more than a bowl. 00:34 <dammitwho> Ah, that sweet lil' guy. Hopefully he's doing okay. 00:34 <Crion> All you really gotta do is have the Warehouse to make it recognizable. Rumored home of the Winter Court! 00:44 <VoxPVoxD> Stewart: "That rules!" 00:44 <CBN> Tony: "Thank you! I tried." 00:44 <Crion> Lauren: "Holy shit! Is that Camden Yards?!" 00:45 <Crion> It's not really a question. That's how good the work is. 00:45 <Crion> Chup stares balefully at it...but is too lazy to leave his container. 00:45 <banana> Melanie: "Very nice. Its impermanence represents the decline of the national pasttime." 00:46 <CBN> Tony blinks at Melanie a few times. "It's just the biggest building I know that isn't a big cube." 00:47 <dammitwho> Maggie: "She's right though, that's a real good sandstadium." 00:47 <CBN> Tony beams and admires his handiwork. It's nice to do nice things. 00:48 <banana> "Your selective memory represents our yearning for shared symbols of play. Clever."
