Ambrosia Software Web Board: The Officer's Club Bar #6 - Ambrosia Software Web Board

Round of Dr Pepper, I just got my best record in a magic tourney yet: 3-2.
Also, I got my wisdom teeth pulled (all of them) and a growth on my foot sliced off.

Funzies.

Dr. Peppers for all!
*Lifts a glass high in the air*
Here's good luck to Darrky's ventures, Darkky's out of his indentures!
And another free drink to anyone who catches that reference!

Gee, looks like the Fleet Admiral has had a fun week....

Nods to the barkeep,
Cold bottle of Lapin Kulta please.

------------------
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

Well, I guess not everyone has good weeks. Although, there was this one time...

*yakitty yakkity*

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

Captain Pharris downs his scotch then proceeds to burst in to song, inspired by Cicion, and the Dr. Pepper that is slid down the bar to he and his crew, who burst out in accompaniment:

For I am I Pirate king!
(He is, Hurrah for the pirate king)
And it is, it is, a glorious thing to be a pirate king!

Now pour the pirate sherry, barkeep, before I start with the rest of the score.

If you can sing the entire piece from Pirates of Penzance I'll give you a cookie. I can't remember its name though... Something about major generals and vegetables.

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

I am the very model of a modern major general I've information vegetable animal and mineral I know the kings of England and I quote the fights historical from Marathon to Waterloo in order categorical....*Inhales deeply* I'm very well acquainted to with matters manthematical I understand equations both the simple and quadratical about binomial theorem I'm teeming with a lot of news,*Pause.* Lot of news...hmm, that's a tough one. Aha! Wiiith many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse!

*Patrons suddenly assemble into a chorus behind the barkeep, and sing*"With many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse, with many cheerful facts about the square of the hypotenuse, with many cheerful facts about the square of the hypote-potenuse!"

I am very good at integral and differential calculus I know the scientific names of beings animalculus, in short in matters vegetable animal and mineral I am the very model of a modern major general!
"In short in matters vegetable animal and mineral, he is the very model of a modern major general!"


Is that satisfactory, or shall I go through the other two verses? All memory, by the way. I'm currently rehearsing for a production of Pirates at school, as the Sergeant.

Very impressive. But can you do it while tied upside down underwater with a block of high explosives tied to your chest with a 30 second timer and a large sword tied by a thread hanging above you?

Oh yes, and surrounded by ill-tempered sea bass at the same time.

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

LCA fades into focus from somewhere else.
"Er, I can do that..." "...and with sharks too, none of these sea bass thingies..."
and fades back out of focus again.

somewhere in the background the sound of a scythe being sharpened may have been heard,
and it wouldn't be for the sea bass either...

------------------
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

/me sits down and shuts up before a big cleaver separates heads from shoulders.

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

SQUEAK!

The Death of Rats spun it's scythe and scuttled off after a mouse that had inadvertently strayed too close to one of the bar's older "hot" Meat Pies, and died of a heart attack.

------------------
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

I'd like to order some Dr. Pepper. Good grief the CS woes.

Shall we drink to scholarly burdens?

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

Aye. /me drinks way too much DP, goes into a caffiene frenzy.

Spamo dives under the bar to avoid a spinning Darkk, but loses his mug of GreenyBlue.

Drat.

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

Aye, our tyme of revelrye is almoste at a close. Let us drink while we can. *Gives another mug of GreenyBlue to Spamo.

Lifts a quart-glass of vintage Nijayias wine.* Saved from the days of the old empire. Care for some, Darkk?

Sure! [The concoction counteracts the caffiene.] Sorry Spamo. Let me buy you another one.

Ah, 'tis forgiven for old times sake.
*Sings sad Irish drinking songs full of sadness, longing and pining sorrow*

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

Good stuff, indeed! Give us a tale of courage and spacemanship, old friend!*Cries of 'hear, hear' resound from the old salts populating the bar.*

*Three small rebel fighters are seen docking outside. Shortly afterwards, the pilots enter the bar and notice Spamo. They glance at each other, shrug, and go to get some drinks.*

"Do I know you?" Cicion asks one of them.

"You know, you look somewhat familiar yourself. I'm Commander Mag Steelglass of the Rimshot Rebellion. Just got promoted."

"Hmm. So you were a pilot before?"

"Yeah. You always see the warships fighting the battles in the holovids, but I tell you, we've taken quite a few down with no losses."

"Sounds like you've got some stories to tell."

"A few. I'll have a coke, no ice."

*As Cicion prepares Mag's drink, he notices that the action is strangely routine.*

Strangely routine is an understatement.

We haven't had a good pirate incursion for at least 2 months!

------------------
"That was quick."
"Well you know, when you don't do it right it doesn't take as long."

Two homanid beings from the GreenyBlue®©™ Drinks Corp sidle quietly into the bar.

They both nod at the bartender from behind their shiny reflective sunglasses.
"Two GreenyBlues®©™ with frost please" said the one on the left.
"I vill haf two BlueyGreens®©™ plis" said the other (with a really tacky accent).
Neither shows even the slightest inclination towards levity...


------------------
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

Comin' up, gents. You two from outside the system?

"vir aus dem other side gekommt hat" said the left one.

"Yeah, we're from outta da town" the right one said,
"from a small system with a greeny-blue sun..."

Their GreenyBlue®©™ Drinks Corp Logo ties glowed odly in the cool lighting of the bar.


------------------
Oh, so it is another bug hunt then...

Well, time to clean out the ol' stockroom. *Goes into the stockroom and notices that a colony of mynocks has taken up residence there. Rather than dispatching them all himself, he walks back into the bar.*

Free drinks for anyone who cleans out the mynocks in the storeroom!
