The Welcome Thread!
Re: The Welcome Thread!
Welcome Rocket Commander and I'll never hand over the ferrets if I have anything to say about it.

Re: The Welcome Thread!
Hey guys. So I recently discovered Housepets and read through the whole archive over like 10 hours in one day. I realised that basically no one I know has even heard of it so I figured I should probably join the forums where I assume at least some of you may have.
Being good pays off. There's a nice view up here on moral high-ground.

Re: The Welcome Thread!
Unfortunately the Sky Captain I'm named after is a villain. We could make a pretty cool super villain team, but I'm not sure we'd do very well. I mean taking over the world is hard and we'd only really have command of the skies. If "Tank Commander" is the next to post then we'll be in business!RandomGeekNamedBrent wrote:wait wait...

There was a slight pause.
"Forgive me if this is a stupid question, Mr. Potter," said Professor Quirrell, "but are you sure you did not just confess to wanting to be a Dark Lord?"

No objections here if I can have a ride in your blimp. Do you have a blimp? If not, any one of your airships will do!

Re: The Welcome Thread!
Sure, why not. People tried to tell me that Zeppelins would never win out against modern military fighter jets. Well those people were...entirely right actually but this is my fantasy and I can do what I want. So everyone can come live on Zeppelins.

Re: The Welcome Thread!
Is making everyone live on Zeppelins good or evil? I mean it seems great to me, but people afraid of heights? I'm so conflicted!

How do you plan on building that many zeppelins? What's your anticipated lifting gas?

I strap a bunch of Missiles to the Zeppelins, pointing upwards with just enough thrust to keep them afloat. I'll borrow them off missile commander.

Re: The Welcome Thread!
As fun as it is to talk about zeppelins and missiles, let's not forget this is the Welcome Thread. If you guys want to have a little fun, you can always take this to the Fantasy Chat Thread. You can let your imaginations run as wild as you like there.

Welcome to he-who-gives-commands-to-the-sky!
Hey, only I get to gain omnipotence and become the center of the existence (Metaphorically, mind you, as in "Everybody spends every single moment of their existence thinking about me and how awesome I am, even if I am not awesome at all." kind of center of existence.)
I will join, however, if you are willing to:
A) Destroy the status quo of the entire world.
B) Read the Housepets! comic again! Ten hours is very little time to enjoy it all!

Re: The Welcome Thread!
Uh, how do you do? I'm Shibuyah--well, username-wise that is--my real name is Colin, and I'm a pixel-artist of sorts.
So far I mostly dole out(a few fail)character concepts in Tales of style, but I've piddled with my share of different styles--Shining Force CD, and Zelda being my favorites. After the Tales series that is. ^ ^;
Anywho, I came across 'Housepets!' rather recently, and fell in love with how cute everything was, not to mention I loved the random silliness everyone got into. XD
I hope to make a few friends here if no-one objects.

@saturn381 + novatic:
Thank you both for the welcome--After that, I already feel at home~ ^w^
@Rico:
Thank you, I hope my attitude will be refreshing as well. I tend to stick to myself a little, probably out of shyness.
Still, I like your avatar. :3
