Don't know video games. I even had to Google that - thought it might be a movie. You should totally write that one. I'll get to feel all cool for starting a trend, AND fill a gap in my pop culture knowledge.

It's okay. Dynasty Warriors is funny because the franchise should have died long ago, but people keep eating up every fucking iteration of it to keep it going. It fits because of the obnoxious off-shoots of it they release.

And I might take you up on that trend. It's certainly a compliment from me when I say I am a little inspired.

Too bad my writing sucks.

Bah, parody's easy. You just need a little funny, which you already have. And if your writing sucks, this is totally the project for you, 'cause it'll be so esoteric you wouldn't want to do anything with it but post it here anyway.

Seriously, you should write that. It'd be cool if other people started doing Gnet stories. It's not like the literature section is consistently packed with interesting shit, so even if you feel like your stuff blows, people'll still get a kick out of seeing they're in it.

Maybe I'll start another one that includes the people I missed or gave teeny parts to when this is through. Could be a regular feature: Gnet in the Tardis, Gnet in the Chinese Cultural Revolution, Gnet on the Titanic, Gnet: the Arthouse Movie, Gnet: the Porno ... the possibilities are endless.

I wouldn't know how to parody you. You did a gimmick, you need to POP. Here's my agency's card.

Yeah, Saya just about summed it up. It's also harder to do people who don't post much around the time of writing - little things like Saya and Kontan's constant bickering wouldn't be in there if they weren't doing it all over the boards as this is being written, and yet it's pretty much taken over the last 3 or so scenes. I think I'll do another zombie- and newer people-focussed one next time I hit a dry spell with writing though. I would let you guys vote on the concept with a poll, but I'm too much of a control freak for that, so I'll probably just end up picking it myself. Maybe pirates or space travel or something equally nerdy.

A space travel one would be AWESOME. Someone you hate as Wesley, perfect.

And Mir would totally be Hal. Only instead of tyring to exterminate the crew, he'd try to force them into a drum circle or something.

Hahahaha, and Kontan and Despanan as Crow and Tom Servo. I'll probably steal this from you if you don't end up writing it.

It's yours. Have the first chapter up by the end of the week. Wait, didn't you just post about lying around in pyjamas watching movies? Fuck that mess, make it the end of the day.

Anyway, stealing ideas is traditional. Humane jacked the whole concept of a Gnet story from Bella Sophia if I remember rightly.

Hey man, I'm on a very well deserved vacation! And in year two of my writer's block. I can see this being a good project for when I'm alone in the resource center trying to look busy, though.

Wink

You are so getting fed to zombie Deadman in the next scene.

Pretty lame as revenge goes, I know. Buit in order to bitch-slap you I'd have to travel to Canada, and, y'know... eww.

YOU WOULDN'T. (Unless it's violent r.ape. Is it violent r.ape?)

EDIT: Naw, forget it. Still NOT FUCKING COOL.

Well, if a certain someone does not get eating by Deadman, then perhaps I can perish the thought, like I've forgotten the Matrix sequels and Route 666.

This is an offer you can't refuse.

I can only promise I'll stick to the plot I came up with around the time I posted the 4th or 5th scene. You can't buy me, Saya. I gots INTEGRITY.

...

Okay, that's a lie and you could totally buy me if the alternative was my doppelganger soiling his dick on that mouth-breathing dipshit. Man, I hated her so much it'd bug me even in the realm of fiction. However, feeding you to Deadman was only ever an empty threat - I'm already hoisted on my own retard when it comes to that one. This must unfold as it must, in all its pre-plotted absurdity, or else I'd have to redo the entire fucking storyline.

I thought so XD don't worry, I think Creature might make an appearance as a space worm, if anything.
