*** AlxKeegan has joined #whosim
<Jacie> Hi David!
<AlxKeegan> Hi Jen:-)
*** Jacie sets mode: +o AlxKeegan
<Jacie> We're both early for a change.
<Jacie> And everyone else is late.
<AlxKeegan> yep yep
<AlxKeegan> of course:-)
<AlxKeegan> did you get your cd?
<Jacie> I'm listening to it now. Episode 2 part 9.
<Jacie> 4 more parts to go. How far did you get?
<AlxKeegan> ooooh, wait till you get to the end
<AlxKeegan> I finished listening to it on monday
<Jacie> On Part 10 now. Charley is offering to kill herself to save the web of time.
<AlxKeegan> ahhhh, got it..have you figured out yet who the doctor was talking to in the Nimon one?
<Jacie> Vansell I think.
<AlxKeegan> you'll find out soon enough
<Jacie> She's begging the Doc to kill her.
<AlxKeegan> yep yep
<AlxKeegan> did you get the interlude I sent out about an hour ago?
<Jacie> Yup. Read that too. The sim tonight looks good.
<Jacie> Uh oh, Charley's been turned into the gateway again.
<AlxKeegan> yep yep
<AlxKeegan> we got new buffy cards in yesterday, Buffy Evolution cards, chrome cards that cover seasons 1-6, 50 card set, very nice looking
<AlxKeegan> only one set per box so I'll have to buy 3 and not two boxes
<Jacie> Spike with his soul.
<AlxKeegan> no pic of that I think
<AlxKeegan> just an overview of each season
<Jacie> The mysterious man just showed up in Doc's TARDIS.
<AlxKeegan> on the sunday repeats of buffy watched the climactic episode of season 4 again, still quite good
<AlxKeegan> any second now
<Jacie> Which ep was that?
<AlxKeegan> next to last episode
<Jacie> Ah, so it was the mysterious man the Doctor talked to.
<Jacie> Um, maybe himself?
<AlxKeegan> ritual of enjoining and all that
<AlxKeegan> they say who he is
<Jacie> The Guardian?
<AlxKeegan> the real Rassilon
<Jacie> No don't tell me.
<Jacie> I'm finding out.
<AlxKeegan> the real Rassilon
<Jacie> Rassilon was one of my guesses anyway.
<AlxKeegan> sorry, too late
<AlxKeegan> good good
<Jacie> Part 2-12. Second to the last segment. This is 8 minutes long.
<Jacie> Zagreus is about to land.
<AlxKeegan> have you figured out what the doctor is going to do?
<Jacie> Ah hah, the Doctor materialized his TARDIS around Zagreus ship.
<AlxKeegan> very clever
<AlxKeegan> hopefully you got a chance to read the script once you got back
<Jacie> The Matrix is recalling the altered web of time.
<AlxKeegan> altered and fixed
*** monkeyheadbob has joined #whosim
<Jacie> Hi Monkey! Are you a new member of our group.
<monkeyheadbob> Yes Jacie, I wasn't sure which night to show up though--
<AlxKeegan> you made it to the right night
<monkeyheadbob> Great!  The email you sent today, Alx, says see you tomorrow night...
<AlxKeegan> I sent it last night, technically speaking
<AlxKeegan> sorry, didn't mean to confuse
<monkeyheadbob> Ah, well see? This is why this is a good place for me, I have no sense of 'time'...
<Jacie> Well welcome to our fold. We're awaiting our regulars to arrive before the game begins.
<AlxKeegan> I did put the right day on the email title though
<monkeyheadbob> np, just glad to be here, interested to see how it all plays out.
<AlxKeegan> hope you enjoy
<Jacie> In the meantime, let me introduce myself. I am Jen. Jacie is a companion character I play.
<AlxKeegan> I'm David
<Jacie> This is David, aka Alex Keegan or Fred (more characters he plays).
<Jacie> What is your real name?
<monkeyheadbob> I jen/Jacie, and David/Alex...
<monkeyheadbob> My real name is Jeff, I hesitate to play anyone because I'm only marginally familiar with the characters
<monkeyheadbob> I was always more of a Marvel guy. :)
<AlxKeegan> Understood:-)
*** TheBrig has joined #whosim
<AlxKeegan> Hi Cody!
<TheBrig> <test>
<Jacie> Uh oh. I'm at the end of Neverland. Oh my. What an ending.
<monkeyheadbob> Although, you know, I loved the Great Darkness Saga in Legion
<TheBrig> YEAH
<Jacie> Hey Cody! Welcome our newcomer Jeff to the fold.
<TheBrig> Hi David
<TheBrig> Hi Jen
<AlxKeegan> yes it was quite interesting
<monkeyheadbob> Hi Cody
<Jacie> We'll talk later. I don't want to ruin it for folks.
<Jacie> ;)
<TheBrig> Welcome Jeff
<monkeyheadbob> Is there a background page on the tenth regeneration doctor we're using?
*** Jacie sets mode: +o TheBrig
*** Jacie sets mode: +o monkeyheadbob
<AlxKeegan> there should be on the whosim website
<monkeyheadbob> Can I ask, what does "set mode" mean? How do you do it, and why is it done?
<Jacie> Yes, he does have a bio and history. The bio is at nadw.whosim.org/doc10.html
<TheBrig> TY Jen I got a package Monday, but I didn't e you because I didn't want you to have to pay to reply
<Jacie> Whoops. Sorry. Make that http://nadw.whosim.org/index.html
<monkeyheadbob> Thanks Jen I'll go check it out while we have a few moments...
<Jacie> Ah http://nadw.whosim.org/doctor.html
<monkeyheadbob> :)
<AlxKeegan> now where is Rob?
<monkeyheadbob> David, did you get my email today regarding story ideas?
<Jacie> His history (a rather long one spanning over 100 stories and 7 years) is summarized at http://nadw.whosim.org/3rdoc.html
<AlxKeegan> ummm...maybe...but I might have deleted it if it didn't say anything about the sim in the title
<Jacie> Sure. Any questions you have let me know Jeff. Basically the regular players handle the recurring cast and the rest of us do story characters. All you need to know is in the script for tonight.
*** TheBrig has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<Jacie> David did you get my e-mail about the book?
<AlxKeegan> yes I did, haven't read it yet but I got it
*** TheBrig has joined #whosim
<AlxKeegan> wb Cody
<TheBrig> GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
<TheBrig> ty
<Jacie> In short it says my book has arrived!!!!
<monkeyheadbob> I read the script....and am willing to try as long as no one hates me if I do it wrong.
<TheBrig> My &**^%$^% comp is freezing more than Siberia
<AlxKeegan> cool:-)
<Jacie> I got my shipment of author copies Tuesday. The folks who pre-ordered got theirs the same day. It looks incredible.
<Jacie> LOL Cody. Did you do a fresh reboot?
<AlxKeegan> sorry to hear that Cody
<TheBrig> Had too
<TheBrig> :-/
<Jacie> Jeff, we may throw rotten tomatoes but out of "love". :D
<AlxKeegan> won't hate you, will just let you know if something is wrong
<TheBrig> Jen, TY I got your package Monday, didnt e you because I didn't want you to have to pay to reply
<monkeyheadbob> As long as its from the heart, splat away! :D
<Jacie> Seriously, nobody is penalized for being corny, bad spellers, or throwing out the obvious cliche line here.
<AlxKeegan> I've seen that message from Cody before
<Jacie> We're just together to have fun. 
<monkeyheadbob> Ok, count me in, who do you need?
<TheBrig> Emily Latila says "Nevermind"
<AlxKeegan> We'll do a CASTING CALL and find out
<AlxKeegan> <==========Fred, Lyle and who knows else
<Jacie> No prob. Glad you got it. David just sent me the last in the 8th Doc series. I just finished listening. It's a doozy.
<monkeyheadbob> I recently returned from England and picked up "Embrace the Darkness"...my first Dr Who in about 5 years! 
<monkeyheadbob> Got me all fired up again for the series.
<AlxKeegan> that's a good one as well
*** AlxKeegan sets mode: +o TheBrig
<Jacie> <==== The Doctor (if Tuna doesn't make it) or whoever's needed (probably Lois and the female chars since you guys are always so skittish).
<TheBrig> <Looking thru my tapes, want to revue all the "__ Doctors" stories I can
<AlxKeegan> <I'm not skittish>
<Jacie> <I've been listening to the Audios since Sirens of Time. I have them all ripped to windows media files and listen at will. It's incredible.>
<monkeyheadbob> Yes, I have a lot to read up on too, but I didn't want to put off, this seems like such a great idea.
<TheBrig> <Really ticked that the BBC site has pics of COLNEL Lethbridge-Stewart only in a screensaver and not where I can make wallpaper or save them :-( >
<Jacie> <I'll get to that Cody. I have Invasion.>
<monkeyheadbob> Sirens of time was the other I bought, but I didn't remember the title...haven't heard it yet.
<Jacie> <Oh but he was Brig then, eh?>
<monkeyheadbob> <Should I be in these now?>
<TheBrig> <yep>
<Jacie> <We use these for non-game chatter.>
<AlxKeegan> <glad you like the idea of the sim, Jeff>
<TheBrig> <Web of Fear" was the only time he was Colonel and pre-UNIT>
<monkeyheadbob> <Gotcha, thanks>
<Jacie> <Ah and hmmmmm.>
<TheBrig> <Thought it was cool that the Colonel wore a Scottish bonnet 8-D>
<Jacie> Ok Jeff and Cody, who do you want to play of the Legion?
<monkeyheadbob> <David, I think this is terrific, I was amazed when I'd heard how long you were around!>
<monkeyheadbob> <Well, I didn't see Mon-El listed in the cast list so I assume he's not available?>
<AlxKeegan> <cool..almost seems like yesterday instead of 6 years for me being in the group>
<TheBrig> <Doesn't matter I'm equally exprt on all of them ;-) >
<Jacie> <8 years and counting, officially. We pre-date McGann.>
<TheBrig> <Doesn't matter I'm equally exprt on all of them ;-) >
<monkeyheadbob> <Oh why isn't it the Avengers?? LOL>
<AlxKeegan> <that's right, in this version of the Legion all the Daxamites were destroyed by Lex Luthor and the Fatal Five>
<TheBrig> <#years next month for me, I'm still green 80-D>
<Jacie> <Don't expect to know everything about the sim Jeff. Even the old regulars like me forget. And we generally work from season to season or story to story or ep to ep.>
<monkeyheadbob> <Fiends!>
<TheBrig> <3 that is>
<AlxKeegan> <but Kal-El is calling himself Kal-El to celebrate his Kryptonian heritage, his outfit looks like Mon-El's now>
<monkeyheadbob> <OK Jen...David, if I have a story idea, should I e-mail a script?>
<AlxKeegan> <although will be wearing different clothes for the wedding>
<monkeyheadbob> <Don't think I'm up for that big a part...>
<Jacie> Well since Tuna and Rob are late, should we fill in and play anyway?
<AlxKeegan> <yep that's fine with me>
<Jacie> <Jeff, you can submit any story ideas you want to me or David. I'm coordinating the next season so it's probably better you send to me.>
<Jacie> <This is David's season and this is the last story of it.>
<AlxKeegan> <good thinking Jen>
<AlxKeegan> <===========Kal-El
<TheBrig> <last? :-/>
<AlxKeegan> Cody, any preferences?
<Jacie> Ok, I can play the Doc and Lois. Anyone up for Irish and Streaky?
<Jacie> Cody?
<AlxKeegan> <yep, last story of the Wood between the Worlds>
<monkeyheadbob> <Ok Jen!>
<TheBrig> <nope I'm equally inept at ALL the backgrounds :-) >
<AlxKeegan> <Irish and Streaky will be small parts>
<AlxKeegan> <just setting up Irish's romance with that bit>
<monkeyheadbob> <Ok, I'll do them.  Any characteristics I need to know?>
<Jacie> <Just pick a main role Cody and Jeff and the rest we'll improvise as needed.>
<Jacie> <The script is fairly straightforward tonight so we can take our time. I don't want to lose Jeff.>
<monkeyheadbob> <LOL>
<AlxKeegan> <Irish is an intelligent, green, shape-changing cat>
<TheBrig> <Brainiac 5? not sure who's an unclaimed major>
<AlxKeegan> <he's been a companion of the Doctor for awhile>
<Jacie> Irish is a male tomcat, sort of. He's green, can morph, is the Doc's companion and has a bit of an elitist attitude. Cat's are best, ya know.
<Jacie> Oh he also loooooves to eat.
<AlxKeegan> <Brainy is good if you want, Cody>
<monkeyheadbob> <I'll take Irish and Cosmic Boy>
<Jacie> Streaky is a Legion character. I'm thinking a bit of a primadonna kitty with superpowers.
<monkeyheadbob> <Umm, if it's available>
<AlxKeegan> <yep yep, available>
*** TheBrig is now known as BrainiacFive
<monkeyheadbob> <One cat is plenty for me. :)>
<Jacie> We're setting up a bit of a romance between the two. A lowkey one at the moment. It's foreshadowing for future episodes.
<AlxKeegan> <in this version, Cosmic Boy, SAturn Girl and Superboy formed the legion>
<AlxKeegan> <they're best friends>
<monkeyheadbob> <How do I change my nick?>
<Jacie> Ok, David you and I have the rest. Since you're Legion expert I defer to you.
<AlxKeegan> <so that's why cosmic boy is Kal's best man>
<BrainiacFive> <type /nick newname>
<AlxKeegan> <thank you thank you>
<Jacie> Forgive any faux pas I make about this world.
<AlxKeegan> <I'm used to wearing different hats:-)>
*** Jacie is now known as DoctorJen
*** monkeyheadbob is now known as Irish
<AlxKeegan> <of course>
*** AlxKeegan is now known as DWFred
<Irish> <Ok, it says it's changing my nick in 68 seconds.>
<DWFred> <I'll roll the credits in a sec>
<DWFred> <<<The New Adventures of Doctor Who Simulation>>>
<DWFred> <<<Revenge of the Time Trapper - Part Three>>>
<DWFred> <<<by David A. Sharpe>>>
<DoctorJen> <Once the credits roll Jeff, we'll pick a scene symbol then play. All non-game chatter must be in these brackets so it isn't confused.>
*** Irish is now known as JCIrish
<BrainiacFive> <Make a variant like IrishCat>
<DoctorJen> @ = Legion Cruiser
<BrainiacFive> ,nevermind>
<JCIrish> <:)>
<DoctorJen> @ ::a lean, gleaming space cruiser rockets through the Earth's ionosphere en route to Mars::
<DWFred> <umm, Jen, it's entering Mars' atmosphere>
<DoctorJen> @ ::the Doctor relxes in his plush seat reading the latest edition of "Flying High In-Space Magazine" and sipping his refreshment::
<DoctorJen> <Just a bit of setup I thought. We can time jump ahead.>
<DWFred> <not a problem, go right ahead:-)>
<DoctorJen> <Mars is only a hop skip and jump away.>
<DWFred> <yep yep, only 2-3 hours in this time/universe>
<JCIrish> ::Irish lies stretched out on a countertop, idly toying with a length of string::
<DoctorJen> @ ::space seems to be getting more and more crowded as they approach the small red planet::
<BrainiacFive> @ Everyone please take your assigned seats , we are entering Martian atmosphere
<DWFred> @ :::Fred eagerly watches the viewscreen as they approach Mars:::
<JCIrish> @Finally!
<DoctorJen> <Ok Jeff, we try to use scene symbols (@ in this case) before all our lines. It helps keep things straight when we have more than one scene going.>
<DoctorJen> ! = Resort
<JCIrish> <I did, but forgot to space it after>
<BrainiacFive> @ Adjusting artifial gravity to compensate for Martian gravity well
<JCIrish> <Oh, not just dialogue?>
<DoctorJen> ! ::meanwhile inside the bubble-dome of the Mars Valley Resort, the guests of honor watch the unfolding spectacle of arriving ships from their private sanctuary::
<DWFred> @ This is only the second time I've been on a starship
<DoctorJen> <Yup, everything. See how I'm starting a second scene being played at the same time?>
<JCIrish> <I see>
<DoctorJen> <That one uses ! as the symbol. Unless you're in the scene, just ignore it.>
<JCIrish> @ You;'ll get used to it, I'm sure.
<DoctorJen> @ ::looks up casually:: Uh Fred, I think you should take your seat now.
<DWFred> ! Kal> So someone broke into the Space Museum and stole the kryptonite?
<BrainiacFive> @ Switching control of ship to the landing computer
<DoctorJen> @ Gravity adjustments can get tricky at times.
<DoctorJen> @ ::places his drink inside the stabilizing holder::
<JCIrish> @ Not to worry, cats have exceedingly good natural balance.
<DWFred> ! Uboy> yes, and broke into the headquarters and stole the Nemesis suit.
<BrainiacFive> @ No need to worry Doctor, my calculations are never off
<JCIrish> <Cosmic Boy> Was any of it recorded?
<JCIrish> <Grr. !>
<DoctorJen> @ Of course not Mr. Brainy. ::placating smile::
<DWFred> ! Uboy> Not the Nemesis suit theft.
<BrainiacFive> @ :::Slight bump:: Unfortunately the same can't be said of the Martian computer systems
<DoctorJen> @ ::sees Fred stumble for her footing as the gravity adjusts and hides a grin:: Or girlish enthusiasm, I fear.
<JCIrish> @:: With a yowl, Irish slides off the countertop and latches on frantically to the back of the Doctor's chair::
<DWFred> @ ::Fred grins at the Doctor:::
<DoctorJen> @ ::whispers aside:: I do hope we're not leaving your headquarters in the lurch, however. It occurs to me we may have overlooked that possibility.
<DWFred> ! UBoy> the security system at the Museum confirms that one of the escaped Sklarians made off with the kryptonite.
<DoctorJen> <LOL Jeff. I love the Irish slide.>
<JCIrish> ! <Cosmic Boy> Impossible.
<BrainiacFive> @ Everything is under control. Universo will continue to monitor anything that requires attention and the Legion of Substitut Heroes will handle it.
<DoctorJen> ! Lois> Kryptonite? ::shoots alarmed look at her fiancee::
<DWFred> ! Uboy> We think someone has the technology to make it radioactive again.
<JCIrish> @ Of course I've never been..subjected...to Martian...computer systems...
<DoctorJen> @ Substitute heroes? Now why didn't I think of that.
<BrainiacFive> >Oh FYI Irish calls the Doctor Maker, short for Makre of noises>
<DWFred> ! Uboy> We'll be on careful watch, though.
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> But we don't know who, and we don't know why?  Terrific.
<JCIrish> (Ah, thank you Cody>
<DoctorJen> ! Lois>::alarm increases:: I don't know. Kal, perhaps we should rethink this a little?
<BrainiacFive> @ Well you are only humanoid
<DWFred> ! Kal> Don't worry, Lois. Anyone stupid enough to attack with this many heroes here won't last long.
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> Don't worry, Lois, anyone who thinks they can attack the Legion will soon find out they've bitten off far more than they can swallow.
<DoctorJen> ! Lois> I don't fancy my wedding day being turned into another battlefield, Kal.
<DWFred> ! Kal> Of course you don't.
<DoctorJen> @ I don't think "only" is a word I like much Mr. Brainiac. Us mere humanoids have a few ways around logical processes, you know.
<BrainiacFive> <Peraonally I liked "Battlefield" ;-)>
<DoctorJen> <Ha ha.>
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> You just worry about marrying this lunkhead, Lois...the Legion will handle anyone who thinks they can crash THIS wedding.
<DWFred> @ Fred> Where is the wedding being held?
<BrainiacFive> @ No slight intended Doctor
<DWFred> ! ::Kal takes Lois' hand in his own and smiles encouragingly::::
<DoctorJen> ! Lois>::squeezes fiancee's hand:: If you're sure... I still don't like it, but I supose we've postponed this day long enough.
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> Kal, should we go change?  The others will be here any second...
<DoctorJen> @ If I'm not mistaken Fred ::peering out the window:: that resort looks like our destination. Incredible.
<DWFred> ! Kal> Good thinking, Cos.
<JCIrish> @ Oh, the indignity of it all!
<DoctorJen> @ ::studying the bubble dome topped with sparkling spires and hidden turrets::
<JCIrish> !::Cosmic Boy departs, leaving Kal and Lois alone::
<DoctorJen> @ A protective atmospheric dome with solar shielding for power generation, I presume?
<BrainiacFive> @ You are correct Doctor, that is the only dome in the system large enough to hold the wedding party
<DWFred> ! ::Kal looks over at his adopted father, R.J.Brande, the only father he has ever known.
<DoctorJen> @ It looks like a very posh place indeed. What is it called?
<DWFred> ;;;
<JCIrish> @ Maker, would you be so kind as to lift me so that _I_ could see?
<DWFred> ! Kal> Will you escort Lois, Dad?
<BrainiacFive> <Super Dome? ;-)>
<DWFred> ! RJ>Of course, son, see you soon.
<DoctorJen> @ Still getting used to the Marsian gravity old friend? ::plucks the cat up and plops him on his shoulder::
<DoctorJen> <It's the Nix Olympica Resort>
<BrainiacFive> @ It's the Nix Olympica Resort Doctor
<JCIrish> @ Does it always look so....beautiful?
<DWFred> ! :::Brande escorts Lois to the bride's area while Kal goes to join Cos int he groom's area:::
<BrainiacFive> <ty, just got it from the script>
<DWFred> @ Fred> It's such a huge Volcano
<DoctorJen> @ Olympica? Do you mean you still practice those peaceful competitions?
<BrainiacFive> <err, David?>
<DoctorJen> <David did we mention the Doctor at all in that scene?>
<DWFred> <yes?>
<BrainiacFive> <the Olympic question>
<DoctorJen> <Cody wants to know if the resort is site of an Olympic game.>
<DWFred> <oh no>
<DoctorJen> <I made that up from the name. Can it be?>
<DWFred> <just Nix Olympica..sure you can>
<BrainiacFive> <Well YOU asked :-P lol>
<DWFred> <nix olympica is the largest volcano on mars>
<DoctorJen> <Ok, I win. The Olympics are in. :P >
<BrainiacFive> @ Games?
<DoctorJen> <Oh, cool.>
<DoctorJen> <I didn't know that.>
<BrainiacFive> @ Not exactly they were held here because of the name, not vice versa
<DoctorJen> @ Ah yes of course, the volcano. Nix Olympica, I was forgetting the one of the largest geolocical formations on this planet.
<DWFred> @ :::Fred and the others watch as the shuttlepod circles the resort:::
<JCIrish> @ Are those the games with all the running and jumping and throwing things? Barbaric.
<JCIrish> @ Doctor, I believe that's the first time I've ever heard you admit to forgetting anything.
<BrainiacFive> @ Doctor, I must confess your self distain is rather a relief as opposed to Theta's interaction techniques
<DoctorJen> @ Really Irish? Hmm, I must have forgotten I forgot.
<BrainiacFive> @ I never thought I'd ever hear a Galyfrian admit to any fault
<DWFred> ! ::::the guests begin to assemble on the three balconies overlooking the stage/platform:::
<DoctorJen> @ Hmm, most likely too much time on Gallifrey has colored my alter-self's state of being.
<DoctorJen> @ Travel broadens the mind Mr. Brainiac. Something my peers tend to forget.
<DoctorJen> @ Ah! ::exclaims as the shuttle touches down:: We seem to have arrived.
<DoctorJen> <Ok, time for the middle part guys.>
<JCIrish> !:: Cosmic Boy is dressed for the wedding, in a futuristic version of the black tux.  The jacket lies neatly on a counter behind him.  He stands before a mirror, fumbling with his tie::
<BrainiacFive> @ True Doctor, I've never understood how a race could posses a machine like TARDIS and not take advantage of the oppotunity to explore
<DoctorJen> ! = Wedding Ampitheatre
<DWFred> ! Kal> thanks for being my best man.
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> Why is it that I can incinerate aliens and I can't tie this thing?
<DoctorJen> @ So do I, quite often. But speaking of explore, shall we?
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> ::stops, turns to face his friend:: No thanks necessary, Kal.  I'll always be there when you need me
<BrainiacFive> @ After you and your companion Doctor ::Holds open door::
<DWFred> ! Kal> I know you will be, you always have been.
<DoctorJen> <Um, isn't it bad luck to see the bride before the ceremony?>
<JCIrish> !Cosmic Boy> And you couldn't have found a better life mate than Lois.  You two will be very happy together.
<DoctorJen> <Should I bring Lois in?>
<JCIrish> @ Fred, what form do you suggest for the wedding?
<BrainiacFive> <I thought that was only in her Wedding gown>
<DWFred> <not in this time period>
<DWFred> @ Fred> I don't really know..::thinking:::
<JCIrish> <Isn't it bad luck or something? Do you want something bad to happen at the wedding?? lol>
<DoctorJen> <I always thought it was to keep the groom from backing out like a scared rabbit.>
<BrainiacFive> <besides with Kal they have to hide her behind lead screens :-) >
<JCIrish> <Nah, that's what the Groomsmen are for, to drag him up there if need be>
<DoctorJen> <LOL>
<JCIrish> @ Think "tall enough to reach the buffet table"...
<DWFred> @ :::Fred concentrates and her jumpsuit changes into a futuristic gown affair:::
<DoctorJen> <On both comments. I guess I know what kind of underwear Lois is wearing.>
<BrainiacFive> <Barborous ritual actually, they are supposed to help the groom fight out the brides defending family>
<JCIrish> <lol @ both comments>
<DoctorJen> <OOh, have Irish transform some nice formal duds for himself. Like a bowtie maybe?>
<DWFred> ! :::everyone begins mingling for a bit before the wedding actually starts:::
<DoctorJen> <He does hate clothes.>
<JCIrish> <I'm learning alot tonight! Science and word origination. :)>
<BrainiacFive> <If it's useless trivia I know it ;-)>
<DWFred> ! :::lyle stands close to Fred, introducing her and the Doctor to various guests::
<JCIrish> !::Irish concentrates, and his fur transforms into a shimmering green coat with high ruffled collar::
<DoctorJen> <nice touch.>
<JCIrish> <:)>
<DWFred> ! :::Kal and Lois, followed by Cos and his wife, step thru the crowd:::
<DoctorJen> ! ::to Lois and Kal:: Many felicitations on this happy day to you both.
<JCIrish> ! Maker (telepathically) Maker, if you'll not be needing me, I'd like to wander off and find a bite to eat?
<DoctorJen> <Jeff, just a tip. We usually put telepathic speech between // marks //>
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> ::suspiciously:: And you are?
<JCIrish> <Ah, thanks again, I'll get it, I swear>
<DoctorJen> ! //If you must Irish. Save us a seat will you?//
<DWFred> ! Lyle> Kal, Lois, these are our guests the Doctor, Fred and Irish.
<DoctorJen> <No prob. Best to learn a little along the way. You're doing GREAT Jeff!>
<DWFred> ! Kal> We've heard a lot about you.  Thank you for coming and welcome to our time and universe.
<BrainiacFive> <np that's rather esoteeric>
<JCIrish> !//You'll be lucky to find the table with the crowds they've got here, but I'll do my best// ::slinks off::
<BrainiacFive> <bad left hand!>
<JCIrish> ! Cosmic Boy> Sorry, we're a little on high alert here. Welcome ::offers his hand::
<DoctorJen> ! Lois> We're very fortunate you showed up when you did Doctor. ::can't help but stare at him::
<DoctorJen> ! Lois>The resemblance is astonishing, Kal.
<DWFred> ! :::everyone shakes hands all around and Fred curtsies:::
<DWFred> ! Kal> yes it is.
<DWFred> ! :::Kal winks at Lyle, who blushes:::
<JCIrish> ! ::Irish wanders through the crowd, ducking between legs.  Suddenly he stops short.  Across the room, he spies...another cat. ::

<JCIrish> ::His tail swishes twice, sharply, in formalized greeting::
<DoctorJen> ! Streaky>//Do you mind?//
<JCIrish> ! Mind what?
<BrainiacFive> <Oh, was about to say something about the light turning red from the Martain atmosphere and setting sun, but wouldn't that take away Kal's powers?>
<DoctorJen> ! Streaky> ::licks clean her paw and pats down her hair again:: //I spent long hours getting my mane just right today.//
<DWFred> ! :::no no, only red solar energy, the sun is a yellow star>
<JCIrish> ! //I think it looks beautiful.  And the cape adds a lovely accessory.
<BrainiacFive> ! Ah, the light is beginning to turn red, that means the sun is setting

<JCIrish> :://Actually, I am from Earth, where I am considered to be _somewhat_ impressive.//

<DoctorJen> ! Streaky> //Ah, humans are usually easily impressed.//
<DoctorJen> ! Streaky> //Maker? Don't tell me you have a humanoid owner? Oh dear, how sad.//
<JCIrish> !//Well it takes more than a shiny cape and a stifled yawn to make your way in the universe, you know!//
<JCIrish> !//And no one owns you, I suppose?//

<DWFred> hurray!!!
<JCIrish> Woo hoo! I loved it!!
<DWFred> good job, everyone!
<DoctorJen> Excellent job Jeff. I'm so pleased you joined us tonight.
<JCIrish> <You guys are great!>
<DWFred> hope you all were logging, though, I was but lost whatever happened between my disappearance and return
<DoctorJen> You must come back and be a regular. You're a natural.
<DWFred> good job indeed, jeff
<DoctorJen> Yup got my log rolling/.
<JCIrish> Whoops.  Thanks Jen, after awhile it just seemed to come right off of David's plot!
*** DoctorJen is now known as JenK
<TheBrig> You were a great irish
<DWFred> I have to go now, have to run and get prescriptions, will talk to you all later
<JCIrish> I logged nothing.
<DWFred> not a problem

-> *nickserv@services.dal.net* identify sidrat
<DWFred> very welcome:-)
*** DWFred has quit IRC (Quit: Leaving)
<monkeyheadbob> So how soon til we get the next script?
<monkeyheadbob> I felt kinda lost, not knowing any of the backstory...
<Jacie> Ah, yes when oh master scripter?
<TheBrig> Tuna still having connection trouble?
<monkeyheadbob> But you guys really helped pull my fat out of the fire! :)
<Jacie> His tech guru gave him some tips to try at home. I'm thinking he tried and got stuck.
<Jacie> My brother called so he may not have been able to get through.
<monkeyheadbob> How many regulars usually make it?
<TheBrig> Np, I'm so out of date, when I followed Superman, Brainiac was a villian
<Jacie> About 5 regulars.
<monkeyheadbob> lol
<monkeyheadbob> I never followed the Legion at all
<Jacie> Me, David, Cody, Rob (Irish) and Tuna (the Doctor).
<Jacie> I never followed any of the comics so I'm really winging it.
<TheBrig> No info is better than incorrect data
<Jacie> Jeff, if you read the Doc 10 story summary you can see what's been happening the last couple seasons and what's to come.'
<Jacie> Right now the Doctor is in an alter-universe while the real universe thinks him dead.
<Jacie> We're gearing up for a big final season next.
<monkeyheadbob> Final season?
<Jacie> Then who knows, Most likely we'll be reinventing the wheel.
<monkeyheadbob> And then you're done?
<Jacie> Jen has master plans.
<monkeyheadbob> I'll read up and so be better prepared next time. 
<Jacie> No, we're gonna continue as long as we have net connections.
<monkeyheadbob> I better get my idea to you quick then! :)
<monkeyheadbob> Do you ever use previous incarnations?
<Jacie> But we've been working with the same regulars roles for a while so we may switch them around.
<Jacie> As guest characters yes. In fact, Cody is planning a 10 Doctors story.
<Jacie> For the 40th anniversary of DW.
<monkeyheadbob> Ah, and just when I was really starting to know Irish...lol
*** TheBrig has quit IRC (Read error: Connection reset by peer)
<monkeyheadbob> WOW now that's ambitious!
<Jacie> Well the final season will last for a year most likely.
<monkeyheadbob> Oh wow, I can hang around that long
<Jacie> It's a kind of Gallifrey gets corrupted, time is turned on its ear and the Doctor has made some critical mistakes.
<Jacie> Most of it is all buried in my noggin, but the back stories help set up the premise for it. Read the summaries and you'll see.
<monkeyheadbob> Sounds good
<Jacie> I gotta go now. See you next week!
<monkeyheadbob> Mine is an actual story I was planning to submit if I ever fleshed it out
<monkeyheadbob> K, see ya!
<Jacie> Cool, send the idea. Bye!*poof*
