Conversation with ussatlantis at 5/27/2008 6:52:04 PM on VAdm Blackthorne (aim)
(6:52:04 PM) VAdm Blackthorne entered the room.
(6:59:57 PM) LtCmdrBusard entered the room.
(7:00:02 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Hiya
(7:00:06 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Heya.
(7:00:38 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: How's it going?
(7:01:21 PM) LtCmdrBusard: It's going okay. And you?
(7:02:08 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Oh alright, same old same old.
(7:02:31 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Cool.
(7:05:28 PM) MajDougMcKnight entered the room.
(7:05:41 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Heya hun.
(7:05:54 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Hey!
(7:05:59 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Hiya
(7:06:02 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Where's that deadbeat Vulcan?
(7:06:20 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: And the deadbeat blue guy.
(7:06:35 PM) MajDougMcKnight: He's at least online, though shy.
(7:06:58 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Shy? Shelev? HAH.
(7:07:10 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Fine, yes. Poor choice of words.
(7:07:32 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Ahahaha.
(7:14:15 PM) MajDougMcKnight: So...
(7:14:37 PM) LtCmdrBusard: ...I spy, with my large grotesque eye....
(7:14:54 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Did anyone other than McKnight actually bring a phaser? I find myself curious for some reason.
(7:15:01 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Ian brought his sidearm.
(7:15:20 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Percy brought one.
(7:16:16 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Ah, kay. I was sort of wondering how everyone prepares for an away mission. Still, this one does involve the vague possibility of enemy contact, so maybe it's not necessarily representative.
(7:16:47 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Well, I'd think some kind of self defense would be normal anyway.
(7:18:14 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Yeah, that's understandable.
(7:18:28 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: I'd expect everyone to be armed in a situation like thisl.
(7:19:42 PM) MajDougMcKnight: And they seem to be. That's weapons for 4 already confirmed.
(7:19:54 PM) MajDougMcKnight: We should fight some Centurions or something. For no reason.
(7:20:00 PM) LtCmdrBusard: ...
(7:20:03 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Just random Cylons show up?
(7:20:12 PM) MajDougMcKnight: You bet.
(7:20:18 PM) LtCmdrBusard: *goes Cylon hunting*
(7:20:20 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Tat's funny.
(7:20:23 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Be vewwy vewwy quiet.
(7:20:27 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Maybe some humanoid models with the T virus, just for flavor.
(7:20:33 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Let's throw in some storm troopers.
(7:20:43 PM) MajDougMcKnight: And a Predator!
(7:20:58 PM) LtCmdrBusard: And the Cloverfield Monster.
(7:21:19 PM) MajDougMcKnight: We might need the ship for that one.
(7:21:31 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Awww.
(7:21:41 PM) MajDougMcKnight: But the image of its head suddenly getting blown off by a quantum torpedo IS pretty awesome.
(7:21:47 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: True!
(7:21:50 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Heh.
(7:22:04 PM) LtCmdrBusard: The best part is that would count as baby-killing.
(7:22:07 PM) LtCmdrBusard: :-D
(7:22:18 PM) MajDougMcKnight: It would, technically!
(7:22:39 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Which would be awesome!
(7:22:45 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Indeed!
(7:23:53 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: WHERE ARE MY ALIENS.
(7:24:34 PM) LtCmdrBusard: I ate them all.
(7:24:38 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Nevermore.
(7:24:40 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Now why would you do that.
(7:25:12 PM) LtCmdrBusard: ...Because they're tasty?
(7:26:05 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Technically, Ian's sort of an alien.
(7:26:23 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Yeah, but the ears and the antenna.
(7:26:35 PM) LtCmdrBusard: *eyes Blackthorne* Hmm....
(7:26:42 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: You stay away1
(7:26:44 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: !
(7:26:49 PM) LtCmdrBusard: :-(
(7:26:57 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Fine, I'll just eat Mike instead.
(7:26:58 PM) LtCmdrBusard: :-P
(7:27:37 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Fair enough.
(7:30:12 PM) MajDougMcKnight: 50 cents if you eat the pseudo alien instead.
(7:30:57 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: ::tosses Commodore's pips on the ground::
(7:31:05 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Woohoo!
(7:31:09 PM) LtCmdrBusard: *steals*
(7:31:16 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Of course, this doesn't mean I won't eat you.
(7:31:28 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Someone has to file the promotion!
(7:31:44 PM) MajDougMcKnight: She's good with computers. She can always forge the paperwork.
(7:31:46 PM) LtCmdrBusard: :-D
(7:32:05 PM) LtCmdrBusard: I AM good at forging things.
(7:33:08 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Welp,
(7:33:15 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: ::flees::
(7:33:37 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Hmm...I COULD chase after...or I could just eat Mike.
(7:34:57 PM) LtCmdrBusard: And THEN steal the 50 cents off him.
(7:34:58 PM) MajDougMcKnight: That may seem an easy choice, but consider this.
(7:34:59 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: ::is far away by now::
(7:35:09 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Hm?
(7:35:11 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Consider?
(7:35:19 PM) MajDougMcKnight: ::Pulls a jetpack from nowhere and flies away::
(7:36:07 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Well, that WOULD be a problem....
(7:36:39 PM) LtCmdrBusard: ...If I didn't have this here missile laucher.
(7:36:53 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Oh snap.
(7:37:15 PM) MajDougMcKnight: You can't eat what you've already blowed up!
(7:37:36 PM) LtCmdrBusard: True....and you ARE cute...
(7:37:48 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Well, I guess there is a third option.
(7:37:52 PM) LtCmdrBusard: *eats a baby*
(7:38:10 PM) LtCmdrBusard: It's an ALIEN baby.
(7:39:19 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Well are you done?
(7:39:37 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Yeah.
(7:39:47 PM) MajDougMcKnight: The marines should totally have jetpacks.
(7:40:03 PM) MajDougMcKnight: I'm hard pressed to think of a situation where it'd actually be useful...but still!
(7:40:37 PM) LtCmdrBusard: You know what I think engineers should have?
(7:40:38 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: ::comes back::
(7:40:44 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Swiss Army Spanners?
(7:40:49 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Sonic Screwdrivers.
(7:41:09 PM) LtCmdrBusard: And lumberjack slaves.
(7:41:16 PM) LtCmdrBusard: *nods sagely*
(7:41:50 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Or marine slaves. That'd be cool too.
(7:41:52 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: You have robots.
(7:42:36 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Yeah, but...they're small.
(7:42:56 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Jason and I were actually just saying earlier, we wouldn't be at all surprised if Percy had something like that on her. At least something ALMOST that broken.
(7:43:06 PM) MajDougMcKnight: The first one, I mean. The rest, not so much.
(7:43:10 PM) LtCmdrBusard: ...REALLY?
(7:43:17 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Well, I wouldn't.
(7:43:29 PM) LtCmdrBusard: I could have a quazi-sonic screwdriver?
(7:43:40 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Well, yes.
(7:44:20 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Woohoo!
(7:44:49 PM) LtCmdrBusard: k9j9jt]
(7:44:52 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Says my friend Keith.
(7:46:40 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Soundsl ike a cat.
(7:47:30 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Yeah, well...he HAS cats.
(7:47:39 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Could be a cat on the keyboard.
(7:47:43 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Cats, plural?
(7:47:50 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Yeah.
(7:47:56 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Ah.
(7:48:00 PM) LtCmdrBusard: You didn't meet the other two.
(7:48:07 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Get this. One of them is named Ming.
(7:48:24 PM) LtCmdrBusard: And yet, female.
(7:48:29 PM) LtCmdrBusard: And no funny mustache.
(7:48:34 PM) MajDougMcKnight: I called it Ming the Merciless...and then I seem to recall Rachel making some comment to the effect that I should die.
(7:48:51 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Yes, well, I do that.
(7:49:00 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Keith recalls similarly.
(7:49:07 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Good to know.
(7:49:17 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Wow, those aliens are made of fail.
(7:49:25 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Shoving Namor in a water tank grade fail.
(7:49:29 PM) LtCmdrBusard: LMAO
(7:49:31 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Failure.
(7:49:34 PM) LtCmdrBusard: I love you honey.
(7:49:41 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Yes, I know.
(7:49:43 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Even if occasionally you should die.
(7:49:44 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Awwww.
(7:54:06 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Hehe, Cloverfield is almost over. And almost everyone in Manhattan is dead.
(7:54:18 PM) LtCmdrBusard: It's a beautiful thing, says Keith. I concur.
(7:55:50 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Awww, I like Manhattan.
(7:56:17 PM) MajDougMcKnight: Yeah, it's nice.
(7:56:24 PM) MajDougMcKnight: But hey, at least it's not Boston.
(7:56:36 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Indeed!
(8:01:03 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Well I don't guess we're simming huh.
(8:01:08 PM) MajDougMcKnight: If not for the fact that it's hot out now, McKnight should totally take his jacket back.
(8:01:32 PM) MajDougMcKnight: In other words...no, doesn't look too likely.
(8:02:39 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: But we had a nice chat about eating... aliens.
(8:02:47 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Alien BABIES.
(8:03:04 PM) LtCmdrBusard: An important detail, I feel.
(8:03:39 PM) VAdm Blackthorne: Well, can't forget that.
(8:04:43 PM) LtCmdrBusard: Anyway, time to drive home. I shall return in about 20 minutes.
(8:04:49 PM) LtCmdrBusard left the room.
(8:11:17 PM) MajDougMcKnight left the room.
