What do I look like, a magical story-writing machine? I needs my breaks sometimes.

This can be solved...

I'll try to get more written today. But I will soon be going to eat lunch of some sort and to watch TV. I'm getting into "Avatar: The Last Airbender" due to curiosity.

So is the plan to give him some more breaking, or to collaborate with Tianguo to turn him into a magical machine?

Man, the Wiki editing process is quirky as hell. I don't seem to have the problems Thanas is having, but it sure is picky and inconsistent...

There's no need to include magic

Finally got that bitch done. It's dawn and I'll be hitting the sack. Tell me if anything's wronggo.

EDIT:

Thanks Steve! I editted the post and it is much better! A rationale for the Bragulan operation in Pendleton! MUHAHAHAHA!

The slaves weren't bought by the Collectors, they were given to them in exchange for the defence deal.

...of course, this makes the transport even weirder

The Collectors bought them, except instead of paying in currency they pay with the blood of a thousand Anglians!

Good point, mang

Well, shit. The Collector ship's gone. God damn!

Oh, man. Bragulan rage

BTW, let me know --here or in PM-- what to expect when that verdammt Monoloth shows up in Central Alliance space...

I like this, Shroom.

Shroom Man 777 wrote:"SHITS!" bellowed Bragga, the IBGV's main operative on Pendleton. He slammed his bare bear paws on the desk and headbutted the cathode ray telescreen in front of him. The screen cracked, but in a testament to superior Bragulan engineering the display still functioned and continued to display the image of the Collector ship. Or, rather, the hyperwake of the Collector ship's drives, as the ship had literally left them to eat its dust.

Damn. That's pretty solid.

"I KNOW!" roared Bragga as he threw his telescreen at the human. The human gave a yelp of horrer and ducked as the telescreen narrowly missed smashing his skull open. The telescreen instead bounced off the wall and crashed onto the floor. Yet, remarkably, it still functioned perfectly despite its cracked screen and dented casing. Bragga growled, angered at the fact that he had missed, that he hadn't smashed the puny human's puny face with the thrown telescreen. "Damn!"

Of course, now we begin to see why the Bragulans make everything ridiculously durable...

"I don't know!" Bragga roared again, but instead of throwing something else - like his desk - at the human, he instead slumped on his chair. He fumed and pondered his options. Bragule would not take too lightly at the fact that he had nothing at all to report on the Collector ship, aside from it seemingly leaving the Pendletonians high and dry. That was something, an indicator of Collector behavior, but that something was as good as nothing.

Obviously, for all it proves is that the Collectors are treacherous, and the Bragulan Empire always assumes that everyone is treacherous at all times!

You would make a good BRA-GU-LAN!

Just wait 'till I finish typing the next post

You ass!

I like the pancake bomb, Siege.

But now it looks like Bragga smashed up his TV set for nothing...

It will not harm good, strong, robust Bragulan vacuum tubes!

In Bragulan Empire, vacuum tubes you!

I'm even more impressed if they did that with vacuum tubes; tubes tend to be fragile spun-glass constructions.

Bragulan vacuum tubes are made of armored steel!

Steel is a conductor. You need an insulator for the walls.

So... Bragulan super-bulletray-proof glass?

Bragulan technical thought is beyond such mere concerns!

Perhaps the Bragulans use transparent aluminium .

Nonsense!

For is not the essence of Bragulanity to have products that work before, during, and after having the crap beaten out of them? A steel vacuum tube would be broken before it even left the factory, regardless of any crap-beating that the mighty Bragulan user might choose or not choose to dish out!

And that would be what the human capitalists of the Sovereignty would call "planned obsolescence." And you wouldn't want that, would you? Would you?

No, for this particular application* we cannot use Bragulan steel! Instead we must use inch-thick sheets of Bragulan superbulletrayproof glass!**

*Vacuum tube walls, for anyone lost in the ideology of Bragulanism...
**Use of Bragulan steel for fitting and framework of the tube-based system is still an option. A mandatory option.
