Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
not what i was implying. more that you wont see anyone who didn't already have a way of coming back, dying. i haven't added any.
you know, something like being immortal and living in a place where the passage of time is weird so taking centuries to heal having your head cut off, or being chopped in half, by an angry corgi with a magic sword is far less of an inconvenience than it should be.

Oh I'm sure it is far less troublesome because they act least are able to regenerate since they have that prior to their demise.

Peanut,
The book club would like me to remind you that the complete unabridged works of L. Ron Hubbard, take more than one afternoon to get through for most pets. or people. even some computers...
Reading through all of them thoroughly enough that you can recite entire chapters word for word in only a few hours is actually kinda, not physically possible, and frankly terrifying.

Peanut, why does your teleporter ALWAYS land you on top of Bino? That can't be coincidence.

Would dogs please stop tricking bino into standing on the bulseye peanut put on the floor? It's a warning where he's going to land, not an invitation to prank someone.

While i'm sure Kevin will be pleased, the rest of us are just confused why anyone would want those calendars. let alone one dog buying all 100 of them.

Also, Sasha, Bino would like to have a word with you.

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
I’m enjoying these notes/chapters very much. Keep up the good work.
Some observations:
The dogs seem to like pranking Bino.
Peanut is an astoundingly quick reader.
Does Bino still think Sasha is is girlfriend even after she ordered all this Kevin calendars?

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
The idea that Peanut is an astoundingly fast reader is canon, actually. It's come up a few times, like when he found out about Pridelands and knocked off the previous books while waiting in line for the most recent release. Also, when Fox was astonished that he hadn't read Dune, he found out that Peanut had actually read most everything at the library, but Dune had been checked out that weekend.trekkie wrote:I’m enjoying these notes/chapters very much.

Edit: Found the specific comic. Finding out you could search for multiple characters at a time is a real time saver!

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
that's actually the page that inspired that note. i just took it up to eleven, given that particular author has written 1000+ works, and i would think going through ALL of them in one sitting is a feat even by peanut's standards.
i picked that author specifically because Guinness acknowledges him as the world record holder for most published works.
personally i prefer authors that have a few dozen good books over one that has hundreds of terrible ones, but this worked best for the joke.

Part fifteeen: Oh, deer.
I don't know what tarot and sabrina did to it, but the old manor is off limits until further notice. the walls presently have picked up the habit of spontaneously rearranging. it took us a week to find max and get back out, and Terrence is still in there somewhere.

I guess Fido is referring to the dog food commercial that Sasha starred in. That was an odd commercial.

Also, the idea of a half-werewolf, half-weasel reminded me of this character from one of Rick's other projects, Dogmen.

Okay, so seems that Jack maxed out his Pickpocket skill.
Interesting to hear that standard lycanthropy is easier to reverse than the coin or godly shenanigans.
Also, that must have been one heck of a snowball fight.

I Hope everyone's new years was memorable, lets see what 2011 has in store for us.
-Fido

We apparently have a new dog in town due to what peanut is calling 'wall shenanigans'. (he tried to explain it to me but it didn't make any sense. something about giving guests canons???) Anyway, i'd like everyone to give a warm welcome to Spot.
-Fido
-----
Can someone get Kevin a hobby? the big lug thought a tackle shop was a type of gym.
-Fido
-----
So the K9 unit's ice fishing trip has been canceled on account of weather. a lot of weather.
-fido
-----
Just FYI, Since we're expecting the power to go out (thanks for the heads up Tarot) King let us bolt an alternator to the windmill the village has and run an extension cord.
Dad will have running water and a working stove, and says anyone can come over tomorrow to use it if you need to as long as you share.
-Fido
-----
Peanut, put the tv and console away, we need that power to run the dryer and the stove. there isn't much to spare.
-Fido
-----
I dunno, find a board game or something.
-Fido
-----
i never thought i'd see the day Knight caved and wanted to come inside, what happened to a dog house being 'more than enough' and us being 'irredeemably corrupted' for wanting mondern conveniences? Little beagle feeling a bit frosty in the storm?
-King
-----
No Bigs, you are not going to "go deal with the storm". you might be the only bigglesworth with weird magic powers, but you're still just one cat. you're staying here for your own safety.
-Fido
-----
So i guess i'm in charge while the k9s are busy digging everyone out? I haven't done this in a while...
Oh, Um, thanks for the tunnels peanut, but next time try making them people size instead of dog size.
-Bino
-----
Has anyone seen scratch? I can't find the little guy...
-Bino
-----
Apparently the Tree Car is above the snow line, and the squirrels have been able to clear off the little solar plate Jasper got for them a while back, so if anyone small is missing that's probably where they went.
-Bino
-----
Max cut that out.
-Bino
-----
Okay, that's it, this side of the house is for DOGS ONLY.
-Bino
-----
GET BACK ON YOUR SIDE MAX!
-BINO
-----
WHY IS GRAPE OVER HERE?!
-BINO
-----
Does someone what to explain to me why Max and Bino are duct-taped to the walls at opposite ends of the house and there's a line of green masking tape down the middle of the living room?
-Fido
-----
we finished this fast because Kevin got the idea to give spot a shovel. that dog can really move.
-Fido
-----
so apparently the storm has been getting worse as it moved, we might be out of the woods here, but it's in Chicago right now, and most of the substations between there and here are down.
they're saying it's going to be a week before power is back.
-Fido
-----
Bigs, i don't see how letting you go would have stopped it. it's a STORM. you're magic but you're not THAT magic. Heck, even Sabrina has more tricks than you do.

Hey, don't you go all glowy eyes echo voice on me mister.

We apparently have a new dog in town due to what peanut is calling 'wall shenanigans'. (he tried to explain it to me but it didn't make any sense. something about giving guests canons???) Anyway, i'd like everyone to give a warm welcome to Spot.

Can someone get Kevin a hobby? the big lug thought a tackle shop was a type of gym.
-Fido
-----
So the K9 unit's ice fishing trip has been canceled on account of weather. a lot of weather.
-fido

Just FYI, Since we're expecting the power to go out (thanks for the heads up Tarot) King let us bolt an alternator to the windmill the village has and run an extension cord.
Dad will have running water and a working stove, and says anyone can come over tomorrow to use it if you need to as long as you share.
-Fido
-----
Peanut, put the tv and console away, we need that power to run the dryer and the stove. there isn't much to spare.
-Fido
-----
I dunno, find a board game or something.
-Fido

i never thought i'd see the day Knight caved and wanted to come inside, what happened to a dog house being 'more than enough' and us being 'irredeemably corrupted' for wanting mondern conveniences? Little beagle feeling a bit frosty in the storm?
-King

No Bigs, you are not going to "go deal with the storm". you might be the only bigglesworth with weird magic powers, but you're still just one cat. you're staying here for your own safety.
-Fido
-----
So i guess i'm in charge while the k9s are busy digging everyone out? I haven't done this in a while...
Oh, Um, thanks for the tunnels peanut, but next time try making them people size instead of dog size.
-Bino
-----
Has anyone seen scratch? I can't find the little guy...
-Bino
-----
Apparently the Tree Car is above the snow line, and the squirrels have been able to clear off the little solar plate Jasper got for them a while back, so if anyone small is missing that's probably where they went.
-Bino
-----
Max cut that out.
-Bino
-----
Okay, that's it, this side of the house is for DOGS ONLY.
-Bino
-----
GET BACK ON YOUR SIDE MAX!
-BINO
-----
WHY IS GRAPE OVER HERE?!
-BINO
-----
Does someone what to explain to me why Max and Bino are duct-taped to the walls at opposite ends of the house and there's a line of green masking tape down the middle of the living room?
-Fido
-----
we finished this fast because Kevin got the idea to give spot a shovel. that dog can really move.
-Fido
-----
so apparently the storm has been getting worse as it moved, we might be out of the woods here, but it's in Chicago right now, and most of the substations between there and here are down.
they're saying it's going to be a week before power is back.
-Fido
-----
Bigs, i don't see how letting you go would have stopped it. it's a STORM. you're magic but you're not THAT magic. Heck, even Sabrina has more tricks than you do.
-Fido
-----
Hey, don't you go all glowy eyes echo voice on me mister.

Most important thing I've learned from D&D?
No matter how tempting it may be, as a DM I can't both present a problem and solve it.
Every time a DMPC or NPC fixes something a payer couldn't i'm diminishing and undermining that player's contribution.

Spot is real now? That's a little disturbing...
Love Kevin mistaking what a tackle shop is for.
Nice work!

Can't wait to find out Spot is secretly a dog Clark Kenting :3
So who taped Max and Bino up? My bet is Grape. x3

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
I wonder if Spot will be another hunk that Grape will swoon over.
Good job, as usual.

Since Grape seems like she will swoon over any hunks that are dogs, I'm gonna guess that will be a resounding yes.

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
Oh god, Peanut's transcending reality to bring his own creations to life. Spot may be helpful now, but will this story corrupt him?
Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
I don't think that's restricted to dogs. It's just the hunks around her neighborhood tend to be canine. She was anxious to see Res as a were-tiger, after all.Amazee Dayzee wrote:Since Grape seems like she will swoon over any hunks that are dogs, I'm gonna guess that will be a resounding yes.

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
Sorry I should have clarified. I meant to say that she only swoons over felines and dogs that are hunks. Though I don't believe I have seen her swoon over anybody in the Wolf Pack yet, I guess it pretty much is limited to domesticated canines.
Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
The ones that she's really swooned over have been generally absurdly built, like Jata. Even Mungo. The wolves are built, but they aren't absurdly so.Amazee Dayzee wrote:Sorry I should have clarified.

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
Right before I saw that it was Spot that was being introduced, I was thinking portals to other fan fictions opened or something. But hey, we got dog Superman now!
Had me worried about Scratch for a while, honestly.
So, what color did Bigglesworths' eyes turn?

Part 18: now on Android
To all residents of babylon gardens,
So, we have some good news, and bad news.
The good news is the power is back.
The bad news us it's currently March 22nd, despite yesterday being January 9th. We tried to use peanut's teleporter to send Spot home and something went wrong. He's still here and time got slightly broken.
Pretty sure it's fixed now though.
-Grape
PS: Also, if you see what looks like a Ginger furred clone of me walking around, can you let us know? she kinda freaked out and bolted.
-----
Okay who turned the engine compartment of the tree car into a miniature casino?!
great now i've got to find the regulations for that kind of thing...
-Fido
-----
Would folks stop calling ambulances? Sasha's fine, she's just upset we missed valentines.
-Fido
-----
I take it back, call everything, she's on a rampage!
-Fido
-----
has any one seen Bino? Knight says he's missed the last three services.
Sasha didn't hospitalize him when she was doing her whole 'everyone forgot me' thing... did she?
-Fido
-----
This is the first i've heard of any collar incident...
-Fido
-----
WAT.
-Fido
-----
okay okay, lemmie see if i've got this straight, he was trying to reenact an embarrassing moment so he could sell the video, and in the process managed to destroy all his spare collars...
and then he finally gets comfortable stuck without one only to get thrown in the pound, while shopping down town because someone thought he was a stray?
Has anyone told jeff?
-Fido
-----
What do you mean jeff is in the pound with him?
-Fido
-----
Oh, Right... Wolf form.
and he tends not to wear pants like that, so can't just change back in public...
hmmm...
So who's going to get them out?

Re: (Meta-fic) Please Stop Letting Grape in Here
Nice work on these.
So, now Stripe is in Babylon Gardens too, eh?
Wow, don’t mess with Sasha and Valentines Day.
Yeah, Fido, Bino’s predicament is pretty unbelievable.
I wonder who’ll get Jeff and Bino out? Maxwell doesn’t have much money seeing as how he tried to bribe someone with a quarter.

Hopefully someone will teach Max how to set up a GoFundMe page then he can ask for the money to pay their bail there. XP
