The New Adventures of Pippi Longstocking

thenightetc 09:02 PM Sliding in early so I can listen for it to start (since tumblr's been messing around leaving stuff off my dash again 🙃 )

highglossfinish 09:39 PM Hello there!

highglossfinish 09:41 PM Once everyone gets here, we can actually decide which Pippi Longstocking iteration is the worst.

thenightetc 09:44 PM Hello!

thenightetc 09:44 PM I... have only read the books! I haven't seen anything else.

highglossfinish 09:44 PM I've seen nothing of them, absolutely nothing.

thenightetc 09:45 PM I'm sure this will be magical.

thenightetc 09:46 PM Hmmm, it still has the "nobody is sharing" fox

thenightetc joined the party.

highglossfinish 09:49 PM Oh yes, that's on my end.

highglossfinish 09:49 PM But I found the movie!

thenightetc 09:49 PM Oh! Good, good

highglossfinish 09:51 PM All good?

thenightetc 09:51 PM Yes!

thenightetc 09:52 PM Now what is this :o

Thebes joined the party.

highglossfinish 09:52 PM The same humans who gave us Remain Indoors.

thenightetc 09:52 PM Ohhh

thenightetc 09:53 PM Oh dear

thenightetc 09:54 PM ...oh dear

Thebes 09:56 PM I forgot how surreal this looked

highglossfinish 09:56 PM Doesn't it though?

Thebes 09:56 PM also, hello!

highglossfinish 09:56 PM Hello!

highglossfinish 09:57 PM And off we go!

thenightetc 09:58 PM ...When is this movie from, anyway?

highglossfinish 09:58 PM 1988.

thenightetc 09:58 PM Ahhhh.

thenightetc 09:59 PM I thought it had that look

highglossfinish 10:00 PM So clearly, we're off to a great start.

Thebes 10:00 PM I forgot this was a musical

thenightetc 10:00 PM I didn't know it was a musical!

thenightetc 10:01 PM A GREAT start

highglossfinish 10:01 PM If this segued into porn, I wouldn't even be the slightest bit surprised.

highglossfinish 10:02 PM "School? You already took me from the playground 32 years ago!"

thenightetc 10:04 PM Oh no, the current's taking him!

highglossfinish 10:05 PM There he goes!

thenightetc 10:05 PM And a finger on the monkey's paw curls down.

thenightetc 10:06 PM I keep waiting for the horse to really talk.

Thebes 10:07 PM Of course, of course

thenightetc 10:09 PM It's unlocked, naturally

thenightetc 10:10 PM Ha!

highglossfinish 10:11 PM Gah!

thenightetc 10:11 PM !!

highglossfinish 10:11 PM "Your house smells like so many awful things at once."

highglossfinish 10:13 PM "First a tetanus shot, then straight to bed with you!"

thenightetc 10:14 PM He sure is nosy.

highglossfinish 10:16 PM I wouldn't want my children spending time with this person either.

thenightetc joined the party.

Thebes 10:16 PM what a quirky montage this is. so quirky.

highglossfinish 10:17 PM They'll need quirkier than that to get all the monkey feces off of *that* floor.

thenightetc 10:17 PM argh she's on the counter argh argh

thenightetc 10:18 PM "she's dead"

thenightetc 10:18 PM are those DENTURES

highglossfinish 10:18 PM Pippi's older than I thought, and I pegged her for 37.

highglossfinish 10:21 PM But enough of that, back to this.

thenightetc 10:23 PM Paying with miscellaneous gold coins seems a lot less reasonable than it did when I was a kid

thenightetc 10:25 PM just throw them

highglossfinish 10:26 PM That certainly was a noise.

thenightetc 10:26 PM aww, that's so wasteful

highglossfinish 10:27 PM Who needs to look for your father when you can waste food and throw money around?

thenightetc 10:28 PM ~physics~

Thebes 10:28 PM this is how anything works, clearly

thenightetc 10:29 PM People in a certain kind of story just going "WOW, GOLD!" and accepting it as payment without checking that it's real or trying to figure out how much it's worth

highglossfinish 10:31 PM I hate her talking horse.

Thebes 10:32 PM I think the talking horse hates the talking horse

thenightetc 10:36 PM UH

highglossfinish 10:36 PM This movie got children hurt, didn't it?

highglossfinish 10:36 PM .....Er....

thenightetc 10:36 PM rest of the movie is about those two kids going to therapy after seeing their new friend leap to her death right in front of them

thenightetc 10:38 PM They're slow learners, huh

highglossfinish 10:39 PM "Coke and cookies" indeed.

thenightetc 10:40 PM Stunt takes place just offscreen because if they really did it he'd be dead.

highglossfinish 10:40 PM "Now you try it at home!"

highglossfinish 10:40 PM "Oh, it's fine, I've got extras at home!"

thenightetc 10:42 PM ewwwwww

thenightetc 10:42 PM ewwwwwwwww

thenightetc 10:42 PM PIPPI that cake was for EVERYONE

thenightetc 10:43 PM "no my father says she's an angel up in heaven"

highglossfinish 10:43 PM "Father keeps her in a shed in the backyard, want to see?"

highglossfinish 10:44 PM .....

thenightetc 10:45 PM you sure aren't!

highglossfinish 10:46 PM "We want to emulate Pippi's life of feral chaos!"

highglossfinish 10:47 PM Oh no, what did Pippi burn?

thenightetc 10:49 PM Uh oh

thenightetc 10:49 PM Is it the helicopter

thenightetc 10:49 PM ??

highglossfinish 10:49 PM She rushes the police and takes everyone''s heads off.

thenightetc 10:50 PM Pictured: physics

highglossfinish 10:52 PM And possibly an elaborate coping mechanism constucted by the children, who don't fully understand why their aging redhead friend Pippi eats out of the garbage.

thenightetc 10:52 PM Lady, she's eleven

thenightetc 10:54 PM Children with guns.

thenightetc 10:54 PM :|

highglossfinish 10:54 PM She's really hung up on cannibals.

thenightetc 10:55 PM Just aim it wherever

highglossfinish 10:56 PM Pippi is the personification of mixing different kinds of steam.

Thebes 10:56 PM everytime it's just one face in shot the estimated age spikes disconcertingly

highglossfinish 10:57 PM "I laid them myself!"

highglossfinish 10:58 PM If no horror recut of this exists, I'll be livid.

thenightetc 11:03 PM Finally finds his kids and they're half naked in barrels about to go over a waterfall

highglossfinish 11:04 PM They left Pippi in the woods but she appeared in the car anyway.

thenightetc 11:07 PM She kind of has a point.

highglossfinish 11:07 PM Pippi's an Eldritchian menace.

thenightetc 11:07 PM hahaha

thenightetc 11:10 PM She's just making this up.

thenightetc 11:11 PM pippi, not everybody has a load of gold coins and a house

thenightetc 11:12 PM ...yikes

highglossfinish 11:12 PM Very yikes.

thenightetc 11:16 PM So.....

thenightetc 11:16 PM This guy invented this magic glue...

thenightetc 11:16 PM and he used it to sneak into the attic of an orphanage?!

highglossfinish 11:16 PM Nothing about any of this is okay.

highglossfinish 11:18 PM "Have fun doing whatever you snuck into the orphanage to do!"

thenightetc 11:21 PM "wait why is there a man up there"

highglossfinish 11:21 PM The fire originated with his toilet nest.

highglossfinish 11:24 PM And why couldn't they just jump out into the net the glue sniffing man went into?

highglossfinish 11:27 PM Pippi's cracks are showing.

highglossfinish 11:27 PM And there they go again.

thenightetc 11:27 PM A bit

highglossfinish 11:28 PM She sounds so drunk.

thenightetc 11:28 PM ...that poor dog

thenightetc 11:29 PM Bimbos.

thenightetc 11:29 PM :|

highglossfinish 11:31 PM ...

thenightetc 11:31 PM this sure is happening

highglossfinish 11:31 PM Isn't it though?

highglossfinish 11:31 PM "So long, you slags!"

Thebes 11:32 PM so how did we get from fire to here

thenightetc 11:33 PM She saved a couple of kids trapped in it, they let her go back to her house, there was a time skip and it was christmas, and then her father came home

highglossfinish 11:35 PM This song's never leaving my head.

thenightetc 11:36 PM that sure was a thing!

highglossfinish 11:36 PM It really was!

Thebes 11:36 PM Oh I knew the sequence of events just. I feel like something was missing for me to comprehend them as part of the same story

thenightetc 11:37 PM Oh, I thought you'd lost your connection

Thebes 11:37 PM no, was here, and watching... this

Thebes 11:37 PM also wow she looks distressingly just like the Wendy's mascot

thenightetc 11:38 PM Oh hey!

thenightetc 11:38 PM Normal things.

thenightetc 11:38 PM hahaha

thenightetc 11:40 PM hahahaa

Thebes 11:40 PM For NOW

thenightetc 11:40 PM If you're quick!

highglossfinish 11:41 PM Oh, Keanu.

thenightetc 11:42 PM awww man

thenightetc 11:43 PM poor pets

highglossfinish 11:43 PM Bobie.

Thebes 11:46 PM The second he started doing this I started thinking of that earworm I Steal Pets From The Popular People song

thenightetc 11:46 PM :<

Thebes 11:47 PM and he keeps going! Are ther no depths to his simulated evil

highglossfinish 11:47 PM Never!

thenightetc 11:49 PM Jesus, why

thenightetc 11:51 PM HOOOOOO BOY

highglossfinish 11:51 PM HERE WE GO.

thenightetc 11:51 PM Oh my god

thenightetc 11:52 PM Uh

highglossfinish 11:53 PM Dear Unicron.

thenightetc 11:54 PM o_o

highglossfinish 11:54 PM Well! There's no way we're finding a better note to end the night on than that.

thenightetc 11:54 PM Well, that was a trip.

Thebes 11:55 PM a tour de force

thenightetc 11:55 PM Thanks for hosting! Fun as always :)

Thebes 11:55 PM thank you!

highglossfinish 11:55 PM Thank you for coming!

Fantastic Four Vol 1 #218

Thu Sep 12 2019 [10:54 PM] Wack'd: So uh, this continues from Peter Parker, the Spectacular Spider-Man Vol 1 No 42 [10:55 PM] Bocaj: gonna pop over to it or just read a synopsis on marvel wiki? [10:55 PM] Wack'd: Marvel Wiki [10:55 PM] Bocaj: That’s the spirit [10:56 PM] Wack'd: From now on I'm gonna check there to see if the Four actually appear in the prior issue [10:56 PM] Wack'd: Thanks to the Nova debacle [10:57 PM] Wack'd: Basically all we need to know if that the Frightful Four--having slotted Electro in as their fourth--kidnapped Spider-Man and plot to use him to destroy the Four [10:58 PM] Wack'd: As we speak, Pete is wearing Peter's (oh, this won't get confusing) costume to scale the Baxter, hoping to trip an alarm [10:59 PM] Wack'd: While Wizard, Flint, and *googles* Max wait patiently in a nearby hovercraft with a tied-up Peter [10:59 PM] maxwellelvis: Just call him Trapster. [11:01 PM] Wack'd: It occurs to me that Pete's paste and Peter's webbing are basically the same thing, one is just less versatile than the other

[11:01 PM] Wack'd: It'd be funny if Pete was like "fire his webshooters!" and a massive stream of paste shot out of his wrist [11:02 PM] Bocaj: "AND DISRESPECT MY HERITAGE? I WILL ADDRESS HIM WITH THE NAME GIVEN TO HIM BY THE GLORIOUS LEE AND KIRBY! PASTE POT PETE PASTE POT PETE" [11:02 PM] Wack'd: Look if I'm gonna call the Four Reed, Sue, Johnny and Ben it feels weird not to extend that to every character [11:02 PM] Wack'd: Though it occurs Pete might not be his real name and I've thoroughly fudged this [11:03 PM] Bocaj: Peter Petruski [11:03 PM] Wack'd: Oh good [11:04 PM] Wack'd: So Johnny finally notices something's up, lets "Spider-Man" in. And then Pete beats Johnny over the head while he's getting into costume [11:05 PM] Wack'd: Then heads off to take care of the rest of the--hang on [11:06 PM] Wack'd: Is the plot of this issue that Pete single-handedly defeats the Fantastic Four? [11:06 PM] Wack'd: That's delightful [11:06 PM] Wack'd: Where's Paste-Pot Pete Beats Up the Marvel Universe, huh? I'd read the fuck out of that [11:06 PM] maxwellelvis: I hope he beats all of them by just sucker-punches, cheap shots, and lucky breaks [11:07 PM] maxwellelvis: It's the only way he should win. [11:07 PM] Wack'd:

[11:07 PM] Wack'd: Dude's apparently got some moves! [11:08 PM] Bocaj: Hey, glue is the most dangerous weapon. [11:08 PM] maxwellelvis: Finally, someone remembers the Spider-Signal! [11:08 PM] Bocaj: Baron Zemo used glue to beat the whole Avengers [11:08 PM] Bocaj: Until they used the magic of 'a solvent' [11:08 PM] maxwellelvis: Peter's utility belt is so rarely used [11:08 PM] Bocaj: Actually provided by Paste Pot Pete! [11:08 PM] maxwellelvis: A solvent that only Past-Pot Pete could have come up with [11:08 PM] Wack'd: Hahaha. Pete tricks Ben into punching a wall panel, which electrocutes him [11:08 PM] Bocaj: wow [11:08 PM] Wack'd: Two down! [11:09 PM] Wack'd: Not only that, but the circuit was the manual override for the building's security [11:09 PM] maxwellelvis: Yeah, but those two were the easy ones [11:09 PM] Wack'd: Were they?! [11:09 PM] maxwellelvis: Yeah [11:09 PM] maxwellelvis: They're much easier to provoke, Ben and Johnny [11:09 PM] Bocaj: how is reed not the easy one by default [11:10 PM] maxwellelvis: Reed's a lot more cool-headed unless his family is in immediate danger, and Sue has the greatest power of all: Common sense [11:10 PM] Wack'd: Easier to provoke but also traditionally the powerhouses of the Four. Let's not forget last time the Frightfuls showed up they basically wet themselves when they realized they'd only captured Reed and Sue [11:11 PM] Wack'd: Wizard: clearly the Reed of this bunch

[11:12 PM] Wack'd: Which makes Pete the Sue--constantly ordered around and underestimated [11:12 PM] Wack'd: Flint is Ben, obviously. A hothead who loves to fight [11:12 PM] maxwellelvis: So I take it Sandman's the one who roped Electro into this? [11:12 PM] Wack'd: And then a rotating fourth to parallel Johnny's capriciousness [11:13 PM] Wack'd: @maxwellelvis *shrug* [11:13 PM] maxwellelvis: Which is funny because up until now that's where the person who can match Ben tends to end up. [11:13 PM] Wack'd: True [11:14 PM] maxwellelvis: Medusa's hair renders his strength of no aid to him, and Thundra's a match for him physically. [11:15 PM] Wack'd: Sue: "I better go get my husband to fuck me. Also, I better go see why my kid brother is making moaning noises in the dead of night"

[11:16 PM] Bocaj: Thaaaaaats [11:16 PM] Bocaj: an unfortunate juxtaposition [11:16 PM] Bocaj: These two panels bad [11:16 PM] maxwellelvis: "*ReEeEeEd! I'm wearing the nightie with the unstable molecules!" [11:17 PM] Wack'd: "All of your nighties have unstable molecules, in case of--" "Reed shut up and get in here" [11:17 PM] maxwellelvis: Send those panels to Superdickery! To Superdickery's Tumblr page because I'm pretty sure the website is still a nesting ground for viruses [11:17 PM] Wack'd: Anyway Johnny is tied up in paste and the moment Sue realizes what’s happened Sandman grabs her [11:18 PM] Wack'd: Hey. Hey max

[11:18 PM] maxwellelvis: Womp womp womp [11:19 PM] maxwellelvis: "She took my squeezing arm!" [11:19 PM] Wack'd: ...can Max do that? I feel like Max can't do that

[11:20 PM] maxwellelvis: He can do whatever the plot says he can do. Electro is one of those villains whose powers should be way more broken than they usually are. [11:21 PM] maxwellelvis: Like that's not even the most broken thing I've seen him do. [11:21 PM] Bocaj: CARBONIZING THE AIR [11:21 PM] Wack'd: Like a tree do! [11:21 PM] maxwellelvis: Yeah, sure, Wizard. Your plan. [11:21 PM] Bocaj: even if that is a thing that made sense, the layer of carbonized air thats hard as a rock is thin as a sheet of paper [11:21 PM] Bocaj: You could lightly poke it and it'd break [11:22 PM] Wack'd: You know how trees turn people into living statues? Or, actually they oxidize the air, hang on [11:22 PM] Wack'd: Breathing. Max has described breathing. [11:22 PM] Bocaj: oh my god [11:22 PM] maxwellelvis: Please just call him Electro [11:22 PM] Wack'd: ...oh my god [11:23 PM] Wack'd: Alright, max, for you I'll make an exception [11:23 PM] maxwellelvis: Did you not realize that until just now? [11:23 PM] Wack'd: Nooooope [11:23 PM] maxwellelvis: Wow [11:23 PM] Wack'd: Spandex over utility belt over spandex. This has not been a fun night for Pete

[11:24 PM] Wack'd: Honestly really impressive that he was able to do all of those stunts dressed like that [11:25 PM] Wack'd: And now its all four against Reed [11:25 PM] Wack'd: They have him on the ropes when--

[11:26 PM] Wack'd: He hit him to get a thing off of his face! Like in a Looney Tune! I love it!

[11:27 PM] Wack'd: (Also: "coulda had a V-8" existed in 1980! Huh!) [11:28 PM] Wack'd: "In fairness, you're not laughing right now." "At my own joke? Don't be gauche"

[11:29 PM] maxwellelvis: "No! Not the shop-vac! Not again!" [11:30 PM] Wack'd: Peter takes Electro out with a rubber hose [11:30 PM] Wack'd: And Pete?

[11:31 PM] maxwellelvis: They all sweated him to death. [11:33 PM] Wack'd: Should've worn multiple layers, Peter! Pete had the right idea!

[11:34 PM] maxwellelvis: Or transformation gizmo like Japanese Spider-Man

The Princess Andromeda (2): What Could Possibly Go Wrong? Everything, Apparently

read it here on ao3

chapter 1 is here

I set off at a brisk pace, holding the layout of the ship in my head as we went. We followed a narrow corridor down to the service stairwell. A sixth sense stopped me in my tracks, and I threw an arm across Percy’s chest.

The snarls of a telekhine drifted down the stairwell. “I don’t care what your nose says! The last time you smelled half-blood, it turned out to be a meatloaf sandwich!”

I tried to pinpoint the monster’s voice: maybe the landing above us? In any case, the engine room was floors below. I gestured to the stairs, and we descended as quietly as possible.

My heart was pounding so hard in my chest that I was sure every monster on the ship could hear it.

Next to me, Percy seemed calm, unruffled. He was probably going to come out of this alive. He was practically guranteed to survive until sixteen, when the fate of Olympus would be decided or something. He’d taken on Titans, gods, and basically every monster mythology had to offer. Exploding a cruise ship was just another day on the job for him. Me, on the other hand…

My camp necklace had five beads for five completed summers, from eighth grade through senior year. I had been on exactly zero quests, not counting the missions earlier this summer.

I was enrolled at NYU for the fall semester. My life was about as normal as a demigod’s could get: I had a girlfriend, a little brother, parents. They were strapped for cash, relying on money I made doing repairs when I was home. I tried not to think about how they would feel if I didn’t make it back.

We arrived at the engine room. The doors were bolted shut. I rummaged through my bag for a pair of chain cutters, careful not to jostle the jars of Greek fire. I didn’t want to think about what would happen if one of the jars broke. It probably did not involve getting off this ship alive and preventing the end of Western civilization.

With a sigh of relief, I closed my hand around the handle of the tool. I carefully severed the chains one by one, easing the door open. There was a second where we both held our breath. If an alarm was going to go off, it would be now. Nothing happened.

I grinned and strolled into the heart of the cruise ship.

Wow. I couldn’t help but be impressed. Big yellow turbines the size of grain silos lined one wall. I could only imagine the amount of horsepower it took to keep a cruise ship of this size going. I’d always wanted to build a boat when I was younger, like maybe a flying warship or Greek trireme…

There would be time for that when we survived this war.

The other wall was lined with computer terminals and pressure gauges, manned by a single telekhine. Percy sliced him from shoulder to hip, and he exploded into yellow powder.

“One down,” I said, wiping the monster dust from my forehead. It was caked with my own sweat, forming a thick yellow goo. Gross. “About five thousand to go.”

I surreptitiously wiped my hand on my cargo shorts and handed Percy a jar of Greek fire and a roll of duct tape. “Slap those on the console. I’ll get the turbines.”

It was humid and hot in the control room. It wasn’t as bad as the forges at camp, but it was warm enough that both of us were drenched in sweat in no time. My fingers were slipping as I taped the jars to the turbines. More than once, I fumbled the jars, which would’ve been very bad for us if I hadn’t caught them before they hit the floor.

There were two turbines left when I heard the pounding of feet on the stairs outside, getting louder by the second. I blanched, thinking about the number of monsters that could be headed this way right now. There was no way we could hold them all off. Percy met my eyes, wiping the sweat from his face. “How much longer?” he asked.

I shook my head. “Too long,” I said around the roll of duct tape, fixing the second-to-last jar of fire in place. “I still have to wire the receiver and prime the charges. Ten more minutes at least.”

Percy seemed to come to a decision. “I’ll distract them. Meet you at the rendezvous point.”

I straightened, looking him in the face. Percy Jackson was maybe the best fighter I’d ever met, but even he couldn’t take on a shipful of five thousand monsters at once. “Percy–”

“Wish me luck.” He uncapped Riptide and unlatched the door.

“Good luck,” I sighed, and he disappeared outside. I heard telekhine yelps and snarls, then the swish of Percy’s blade as he cut them apart.

Part of me—the part that wondered if this was the last time I’d see him alive—wanted to dart outside and help him. Then I took a deep breath. Percy was doing this for me so that I could finish the job. I couldn’t let him down.

I attached the last jar of Greek fire to the last turbine. I pulled the receiver out of my bag and began wiring the circuit. My mind focused until there was nothing but the job in front of me. There was a cruise ship that needed blowing up. I was the one that was going to blow it up. That was all.

My hands flew, priming the explosives and setting the timer. Then I paused. The original plan had been to set it for five minutes so we could escape before the boat exploded.

I looked at my watch; the LED face read 10:29 PM. How long had it been since Percy had left? Five minutes? Seven? If he had been captured, neither of us would be getting off this ship alive.

I took a deep breath and set the timer to zero. When Kronos discovered the explosives, it would be far too late. I could detonate them at any time. Besides, if we were captured and the ship exploded, it wouldn’t matter to us.

Either way, we would be dead.

I finished wiring the receiver and packed everything up in my bag, minus the Greek fire. I took a deep breath and unlatched the door. All I had to do was make it to the rendezvous point—the helipad on the bow of the Princess Andromeda. What could go wrong?

Footsteps—many, many footsteps—echoed from the corridor to the right. I was faced with a split-second decision: engage them in front of the engine room, or take my chances with the hallway to the left, which was the way we had come. Think! I have to think.

This was the second large wave of monsters that had come this way within fifteen minutes. That couldn’t possibly be a coincidence.

Somehow, Kronos knew we were here.

Either Percy had been captured and let something slip… or someone had told them that we would be here. A spy. A spy at camp.

Our entire mission had been compromised, and I had to find Percy and get out of here as soon as possible, hopefully detonating the explosives along the way.

I desperately wracked my brains for a way out of the situation. If the monsters checked the engine room, they would disable the explosives, and our mission would fail. New York would fall, and Olympus would follow. I couldn’t let that happen.

So.... if I wanted them to avoid the engine room, I had to create a diversion. Then I had to convince them the explosives hadn’t been set yet, so they wouldn’t come to check. A plan began to take shape in my mind—a stupid, crazy plan, but it was the only one I had.

First. Kill any monsters that were coming to check the engine room right now. I unhooked a Greek fire grenade from my utility belt. Yanked out the pin. Took a second to think about how stupid I was being: if the corridor caves in, I’m doomed.

Before I could do any more second-guessing, I chucked the grenade into the horde of monsters rounding the corner, shut my eyes, and clapped my hands over my ears.

The resulting blast shook the floor, but the walls seemed to contain the shock wave well enough. I cautiously opened my eyes, ready to finish off the survivors. There were none. The walls weren’t even scorched, and any leftover monster dust had been totally incinerated.

I blew out a breath, trying to calm my racing heart. Next step, I told myself. What’s the next step?

Second. Convince Kronos’s minions I was heading towards the engine room and hadn’t set the explosives yet. Backtrack. Find fake explosives.

I turned and ran down the left-hand corridor, retracing my steps back up the dingy stairwell where we had first heard the telekhines. I heard noise from the flight above me, and I instantly spun around and pretended to be heading downstairs.

Two dracaenae snake women slithered around the corner and spotted me. “What issss thissss?” one hissed. Her forked tongue flickered. “An enemy demigod?”

“Yup, that’s me,” I said automatically, my brain running on autopilot. Stupid.

They made their way down the stairs, every step making an audible thud and causing their armor to clank. It would’ve been funny if I wasn’t stuck on a cruise ship with five thousand monsters and only one demigod for backup.

“For Kronossss,” one hissed, jabbing at me with a spear. I sidestepped and lunged, slicing it to dust with my sword. Then I turned and sprinted down the stairwell, leaving the other one to raise the alarm.

Next step. Fake explosives. Where was I supposed going to find fake explosives on a golden cruise ship?

Glass jars. The kitchens. I swore, trying to remember where the kitchens were as I ran. My armor and bag clanked loud enough to raise Hades. With my luck, I’d attract another horde of monsters by stumbling around like a bull in a china shop.

I skidded around a corner and almost ran straight into a Cyclopes. It froze when it saw me, a hotdog halfway to its mouth. Before it could react, I stabbed it through the eye and sent it back to Tartarus.

I darted into the kitchen, sword at the ready. There was no one else in there, possibly because it was nearly eleven o’clock. Or maybe most of the monsters on this ship ate something else—like demigod.

I rummaged through the kitchen pantry, past packages of Froot Loops and Double Stuf Oreos. Please, I prayed. Please let there be something useful.

Finally, in the very back, I unearthed a dozen jars of peach preserves, in pristine condition, as if they’d been waiting for this very moment. Was it divine intervention, or was it the fact that Greek monsters liked preservatives instead of preserved fruit? I sent a quick prayer of thanks to my father anyway.

Right outside the kitchen, the hallway forked again. I knew the left corridor would lead to the engine room—where a third horde of monsters was probably heading—and almost certain capture and death. If I went back there, I wouldn't be able to make it off the ship before detonation. I would go down with the Princess Andromeda.

The other corridor… if I took it, maybe I would be able to escape detection. I could make it to the rendezvous point with Percy, and we coud get away and detonate the charges from a distance.

A choice. I have a choice.

No, I didn’t. Not really. If I ran, Kronos would find and dismantle the charges. Our only hope for success lay in me getting down to the engine room before the third wave of minions came to investigate.

Deep down, I knew I would never be able to chicken out. I had committed to this mission. It was my responsibility to see it through to the end.

I took a second to catch my breath, making sure my watch was set to the detonator. I fastened it more securely around my wrist—it would be just my luck to have it slip off in the next fifteen minutes. I glanced at the image of Silena in my pocket one last time. If everything went to plan… I would never see her smile again. I’m sorry, Lena.

An ice-cold clarity settled over my mind. For the ruse to work, the enemy had to see me creeping towards the engine room. I would be captured, and after that, there would be no way off this ship. I would detonate the charges, and then… I would die.

Don’t get me wrong. A part of me was freaking out. I was, not to be cliché, too young to die. I wanted to go to college, drive my brother to football practice every day, and major in political science. Maybe start my own crafting business on the side.

If I hit the big red button on my watch, all of those dreams would go up in a giant plume of Greek fire. There wouldn’t even be a body for my parents to bury.

I blinked away sudden tears.

But if I didn’t do this, I would still die. If this ship made it to New York, it wouldn’t matter if I survived tonight. The Titans would take Olympus. All of Western Civilization would crumble within a week.

I had to do this.

K17 Time of the Apes

Monkey wrenching

General notes

Ah, more Sandy Frank. That name just warms my heart. Oh wait, that’s the rage at having to watch another one of these things. Okay, so maybe it’s not quite that bad, but man, it’s not good. This is the last Sandy Frank episode for KTMA, giving us two seasons of freedom from the hot dog dropped on the beach, until Season 3 when we get to watch almost all of these movies again, but with better riffing.

Like Cosmic Princess [K10], Fugitive Alien [K12], and Mighty Jack [K14], Time of the Apes is actually assembled from pieces of a TV show. The original show was called Saru no Gundan (“Army of Apes”) and aired in the early ‘70s. Apparently, it’s not too bad, if Planet of the Apes adaptations (one might say “rip-off” instead, but hey) are your thing. I can see how, without bad dubbing and half the story cut out, it could be a fun watch. In this form, however, it’s…well, it’s on MST3K.

This episode is unique- Joel’s not in it! I don’t know the detailed backstory, but I guess he had to be out of town that week, so they just taped the episode without him. Having just Tom and Crow in the theater makes for a slightly different feel. Let’s go watch some monkeys, shall we?

Prologue

The Mads are having trouble getting the Joel on the phone. Unfortunately for them, the bots are in a trolling mood and aren’t being much help.

It sounds like the Mads send Time of the Apes as retaliation for the bots’ unhelpfulness. Something similar happens in several later episodes, such as Hobgoblins [907]. It seems like Pearl was especially prone to this.

Mr. Potato Head is back on the desk this week. Dr. Forrester takes out his anger on it by ripping off its nose. Or maybe he just felt like dressing it up differently, at that exact moment.

Movie pt. 1

Does anyone else automatically sing “Sandy Frank, Sandy Frank” along to the opening music? I can’t help myself.

Crow sits in Joel’s usual seat.

At 3:06, Tom already says he feels kind of a void without Joel in the theater. He’s also not too happy about sitting right next to Crow, it seems. He tells Crow maybe he should empty his load pan because he doesn’t smell very good. So…did anyone ever figure out what a load pan was actually supposed to be? I’m not sure I want to know, now.

I never noticed before how peppy the music in this section of the movie is.

Crow doubts the monkeyhood of the animal at 5:41. Tom thinks it’s a possum, Crow guesses lemur. Crow was closer- it’s actually a loris.

6:55- Crow continues his already storied career as an incorrigible punster.

Servo mentions Joel’s absence again at 7:16, wondering where he is.

At 8:32, Crow’s already got this movie’s number.

Wow, this advanced scientific compound’s wiring does not seem up to code.

Crow mentions doing experiments in science class at 10:10. I know it’s probably just a joke, but Joel probably would do experiments with the bots for fun. Probably not “destroy the monkey freezing plant” experiments, though.

At 10:48, Tom mocks Crow’s time as a Christmas tree from several episodes ago, which Crow does not particularly appreciate. He compares being frozen to “drinking a Slurpee real fast.”

Tom also calls commercial at 11:23.

When Johnny starts calling for his uncle at 13:10, the bots start up calling out other names. Sort of a proto version of a joke they’d use in multiple later episodes, most memorably in Pod People [303]. They start it up again at 16: 27.

Some of the camera movement and editing choices in this movie are so strange.

Tom begins whistling at 18:47. After a little while, Crow asks him how he gets his “blowport” to pucker to make that sound. Tom says it’s a special program, but…Also, if anyone knows what song(s) he’s whistling, I’d be interested to know.

At 20:48, Crow says Joel should be there, and Servo says he’s getting a little concerned.

Trace has made Josh laugh at least three times so far in the episode. He’s on a roll. Has been for the past few episodes, actually.

Crow mentions Joel’s absence again in a riff at 22:36.

I don’t know why, but Crow’s little “Mm?” at 23:18 is adorable.

The bots decide to go look for Joel as they leave the theater.

Host Segment 1

The bots discuss where Joel might be, and go over where they’ve already looked. It’s sort of cute how they don’t know all the rooms on the ship.

They quickly degenerate into arguing, unsurprisingly. They really are like young siblings.

Crow calls Tom a “spasmodic crofisator” (crophysator?), a term that would be used again at least once in Season 1. It sounds like an insult but I’m not sure what it means. Maybe they don’t know, either.

Gypsy shows up to break up the fight, carrying Joel’s jumpsuit in her mouth. Does Joel only have one jumpsuit? I always sort of assumed he had at least a couple. But I guess in KTMA he only ever wore the one on camera, so maybe he did only have one. He only had one on camera in Season 1, too. Actually, the only season where he clearly had more than one jumpsuit was Season 2, where he had at least 5- teal, bright red, cyan, light green, and his classic maroon one, which he wears in every episode after it first shows up in Godzilla vs. Megalon [212]. Mike wore the same green one throughout Season 5 (unless you count the navy one in Mitchell), got a royal blue one (Zombie Nightmare [604]) and a teal one (The Creeping Terror [606]) in Season 6, and then switched between the three of them for the rest of his time as host. You know, in case you wanted the brief jumpsuit history of MST3K.

Crow doesn’t know what a pod bay is either. Tom is not taking things seriously and activates a “wah-wah-wah” noise. Does that satellite have those built in?

Apparently the only possible conclusion one could reach after finding Joel’s uniform is that he’s floating naked in space. They don’t seem too concerned for his safety, just more interested in seeing him in an embarrassing position. These are the monsters you created, Joel.

Movie pt. 2

The way this is cut makes the story feel really choppy. Was is this bad in the version they used for the Season 3 episode? Probably.

The fire in the movie makes Crow sneeze at 28:52. Somehow. I wonder if Trace is a little sick- his voice cracks, too, at 29:08.

TV23 time and temperature at 35:41. 6:42, and 56°. I wish they’d tell us AM or PM, but I guess the people actually watching when this was on wouldn’t need to be told that. It was probably PM, since they taped during the day and played them in the evenings. I’m not sure if they showed them at other times on the channel as re-runs or not, though. Tom from mst3ktemple.com would probably know.

At 37:24, the bots start talking about how good it is to get your shoes off when you’ve been on your feet for a long time, despite the fact that neither of them wear shoes and only one of them could. (Unless you count that time from Danger Death Ray [620] where Tom wore the shoes on his head and hands. I don’t.)

Crow starts singing about taking the “ape train” at 46:41. It annoys Servo, but apparently Crow has to do it or his head will blow up. Personally, I think he may be exaggerating.

Immediately after, at 47:01, Tom mentions Joel void again. Crow says they’ll just go look at him through the telescope when they get out of the theater again. I guess that means they did locate him outside at the end of the last host segment, even if we didn’t get to see it.

Movie thing- why does the action scene on the train have such slow, ponderous music? I guess it’s not really that much of an action scene anyway.

Host Segment 2

Crow’s wearing Joel’s jumpsuit, which is ridiculously adorable. I wonder how he managed to put it on. It probably would have been entertaining to watch.

Servo and Crow discuss the implication of Joel being stuck outside, with themselves being the only ones who could let him in, all the while ignoring his pounding on the door outside. They like the idea of forcing Joel to do their will in exchange for saving him from the dark vacuum of space.

What does Crow have against breadfruit plants? Do they take up too much of Joel’s time?

Predictably, Tom’s still on about babes.

Crow also suggests sending him adrift with a sextant, charts and a toaster. Servo objects to losing Lucille the toaster, something about four toast slots. I hope hope hope that it’s just because he’s likes making four pieces of toast at a time and not for some other reason…speaking of which, what kind of fun does Crow think Joel would have with the toaster? I guess he’d tinker with it. He wouldn’t have anything else to do, since the sextant and charts sure aren’t going to help him navigate anywhere in space.

The bots decide the pounding they’re hearing is space barnacles that need removal, to justify messing with Joel some more, but get Movie Sign before they get a chance.

Movie pt. 3

At 51:41, I agree with Tom- I’ve never seen anyone that unconcerned about a UFO.

Josh sneezes at 54:12. Crow/Trace says “gesundheit.”

Tom forgets Godo’s name at 57:05. Usually forgetting how to say characters’ names is Joel’s thing. I guess someone had to do it since he’s wasn’t there.

Did Sandy Frank even attempt to make this part coherent? Was it 5 pm on a Friday and he was just like “Eh, this is good enough, those kids won’t know what’s going on anyway”?

Servo calls commercial again at 1:01:43.

At 1:03:23, Crow is unimpressed by Tom’s joke.

1:04:46- Servo mentions Joel again, though I’m not sure whether he means Joel is a naked ape, or someone who is going back to his country. Is he saying that’s why Joel went out into space in the first place? I guess it could be.

Tom and Crow discuss the Academy Awards at 1:06:12.

The cliff in this flashback is, like, the least treacherous cliff ever. You could walk up that.

Host Segment 3

Cambot plays some old footage of Joel (from Invaders from the Deep [K01], with the long hair and turquoise jumpsuit- wait, he did have another jumpsuit in KTMA. Does that invalidate my whole spiel about jumpsuits from earlier? Oh nevermind). It freaks out Tom and Crow for a second because they think they’ll be in trouble. Have we ever seen this part before? I can’t recall if that little bit is in the snippets video of the three missing episodes.

Inevitably, the bots get into another argument, this time about whether the Joel behind the door was real or simulated. Usually the human has to break up the fighting. If something else didn’t interrupt, I wonder how far it would escalate.

Anybody know who that was behind door #2? Whoever it was, he terrified the bots. Maybe just because he was huge? Or perhaps they don’t like baldness.

Things get a little trippy when Tom starts playing with the laws of reality. He seems to have that power. He does something similar in Gunslinger [511], and Crow doesn’t like it any better then than he does here.

Movie pt. 4

At 1:15:17, Crow and Servo talk about whether or not humans have the same number of hairs on their bodies as apes. Crow thinks so, Servo doesn’t believe it.

I think we’re all starting to get impatient along with Crow. This is dragging on forever.

Down to 54° by 7:45, so I’m guessing it is PM, at 1:27:24.

Ah, we’re finally back on track- Wizard of Oz reference #14 at 1:29:23. I knew they’d return someday. The last three episode haven’t had any, at least that I could find, so my original theory about there being a WoZ riff in every Joel episode has been disproven. I still predict that there will be at least one in every Joel ep in the series proper, though.

The impatience continues.

At 1:31:20, Servo says that if Joel were there, they’d have run out of monkey puns much earlier. Is that because they’d have said more of them in a row to annoy him, or because Joel’s presence discourages the creation of monkey puns?

Something about Tom’s timing at 1:32:07 is just great.

Very brief Wizard of Oz reference #15 at 1:33:55.

Movie thing- So they do explain how they got back to their own time, it just makes NO SENSE. I wonder if Tom still feels like exploding.

Servo forgets Godo’s name again at 1:36:16, calling him Gobo.

1:36:58- uh, what other organ were you thinking of, Crow?

Tom falls over onto Crow as they start to leave the theater, but manages to get back up.

Once again, I can’t not sing the Sandy Frank song along with the credits.

Conclusion

We get a rare outside shot of the S.O.L., along with floating-(semi)-naked-in-space Joel, as represented by an action figure of some kind. I…don’t really think Joel would look like that with his shirt off, but hey.

Tom and Crow contemplate life without Joel. They only seem to recall all the mean stuff Joel has done to them since their creation, but they still do say they miss him a little.

They also talk about how they actually like each other, although that “You’re the greatest” remark from Crow could have a bit sarcastic. Hard to tell. I prefer to interpret it in a positive light.

I don’t know if I mentioned it before, but Alexandra Carr is now in the credits as the Fan Club Coordinator and Production Assistant. She’d continue to be on the show’s staff for a long time.

Joel is also still listed as starring in the episode even though he wasn’t there, just like Trace was still credited for Crow in the eps where he was gone.

At least in the copy I linked, the sound on the tape starts flipping out in an amusing way at the very end.

Thoughts on the Movie

This movie is…really goofy. I won’t go in-depth, since we have to watch it again in a few seasons, but man. Actually, it’s quite refreshing after two confusing 70s TV-movie dramas in a row. It’s not really any less confusing, but it’s much more entertaining to watch. This is also the second movie in a row with a really annoying child, although Johnny is much more amusing in his annoyingness than the kid in City on Fire (Gerald? Was that his name? I don’t care enough to go check). That kid was just not very good, whereas Johnny is not that terrible, he just kind of a spaz. Fits in with the rest of the movie, I guess.

Review

This was a pretty solid episode. Of course, the definition of a solid episode in KTMA versus Season 1 and beyond is quite different, but this one measures up to what they’ve done so far. Josh and Trace kept the energy nicely throughout. The two of them always played off each other well (favorite riff- Crow: Let’s buy these guys a tripod, whadda ya say?). This episode didn’t provide nearly as many laugh-out-loud moments as the last one, though, which reinforces to me that three really is the magic number. Something about having all of them together brings it up to the right level. The movie itself was pretty lively this week, which probably helped make up for losing a riffer. If it had been say, Cosmic Princess with only Tom and Crow, it might not have worked as well.

md3 watches Dr. Stone ep2-4

I forgot to post my reactions to Dr. Stone ep2-4 from 2 months ago.

9:22 PM 7/31/2019

Dr. STONE Episode 2 � King of the Stone World

Breakout Syndrome(?) did the openign theme. I think they did some Naruto songs too. Maybe some Haikyuu songs? Rude-[alpha] did the ending theme. I'll look them up later. I'm surprised teh "doctor stone" in the narrative is soap. I mean, it makes sense to call attention to soap's significance in preventing medical emergencies. I mean, they have alcohol, but disinfecting is different from needing anti-biotics. Soap will be very important. But I have a feeling that "Dr. Stone" was just this series' emblematic name, but then an editor must have told the manga-ka that they need something actually in the story to be called Doctor Stone. I imagine that the editor must have demanded that someone call Senku "Dr. Stone" at some point. But the manga-ka seems so intent on emphasizing the fundamental technologies of civilization, more than giving a character cool names. I think the problem with Tsukasa's line of thinking its that it makes too many assumptions. Who's to say that all the grownups who are unpetrified will demand their old status/hierarchy and will say they "own" things and take them from the young. There can be plenty of young people to be bad. And there can be old people who won't demand those things/preferential treatments.

9:54 PM 7/31/2019

Finished ep.

10:04 PM 7/31/2019

Dr. STONE Episode 3 � Weapons of Science Sure, I'll watch ep 3. I've got another helping of dinner anyway. 10:10 PM 7/31/2019 Wow. Just finished the first commercial break and I'm already almost done eating.

Wow. They're really going to go fully pacifist with Taiju? This is going to be very interesting. *o*

I like that Senku explained that they have actual cracks on their faces. I thought it was just part of this series' exaggerated character design. But I guess they keep some cracks from while they were statues.

But I wish someone would explain why Yuzuriha's headphones petrified with her and are still on her head! I feel like it's a clue to some story point later, but...Seems like this is going to take a while before any reveals.

And it's increasingly scary whenever Tsukasa is shown to be smart enough to figure out Senku's plans.

I like the ending disclaimer, clarifying that even though the info is based on real science, foraging and such is still dangerous (and sometimes illegal). I don't want anyone accidentally eating poison mushrooms or making gun powder, just because they watched this series and didn't do more detailed tangental learning research first.

10:33 PM 7/31/2019

I have a feeling the pacing of this series is kind of slow---But that's not right. I think I just wish the episodes wouldn't end right when something's about to happen. But I should be used to this by now, after all those years of Shonen anime based on weekly Shonen manga. ^^; I guess all this means is that I find the show/story compelling. ^-^

12:43 AM 8/1/2019

After Tsukasa declared he was going to kill all the adults, I've been thinking that maybe one of the premises of this series was in reaction to the current popularity of things like Persona 5, which often shouts things like "adults are shitty and need to be rebelled against". I hope this isn't an emphasized interpretation of Dr. Stone, because I don't think either extreme is right. Plus, it reminds me of that fan-made Smash Bros cutscene of Joker talking down to Snake. I couldn't even finish it, because that unprovoked hostility and automatic prejudice against all adults in that portrayal of Joker, felt like a smear against his true personality. In Persona 5, Joker is not only willing to collaborate with and confide in adults, but he is also open enough to not be unprovokedly hostile. But I understand that a lot of Smash Bros players are only familiar with a superficial understanding of who Joker is, and the trailer is very much about Rebellion, with Ryuji declaring that they'll take down "shitty adults". But Joker---Akira/Ren isn't about rebelling against everything and everyone just for the sake of anarchy. He's a kind person who is willing to give people a chance and meet them with neutral deference. He only rebels against the truly evil villains from both the adults and the juvenile worlds. He isn't one of those posing, cynacle, hipsters looking to demean anyone who follows rules what sheep they are. He's a kind person who made a lot of confidants out of adults and was sympathetic enough to listen to everyone's problems and support them. He's not the selfishly-focused anarchist type.

6:33 PM 8/22/2019 Need to also remember to watch: Given Fire Force - Dr. STONE Episode 4 – Fire the Smoke Signal - 11:27 PM 8/22/2019 continue - 11:51 PM 8/22/2019 done ep4 - 12:29 AM 9/27/2019 Oh wow. I didn't write any reaction notes. O.o!?!

New Girl 뉴걸 - 주이 드샤넬(Zooey Deschanel)

New Post has been published on http://kpopmusicstory.xyz/new-girl-%eb%89%b4%ea%b1%b8-%ec%a3%bc%ec%9d%b4-%eb%93%9c%ec%83%a4%eb%84%aczooey-deschanel/

New Girl 뉴걸 - 주이 드샤넬(Zooey Deschanel)

오늘은 내가 좋아하는 미국 시트콤 뉴걸(New Girl)을 소개해볼까 한다.

매주 화요일 8시 Fox TV에서 현재 시즌2가 방영 중인 뉴걸은 연애와 섹스를 주제로 한 코믹 시트콤이다. 이 드라마를 보게 된 이유는 매 에피소드가 약 20분 정도로 짧아서 영어 공부를 위해 반복 재생을 하기에 부담스럽지 않은 길이라는 것..ㅋ

그리고 무엇보다도 영화 예스맨(Yes Man) 에서 짐 캐리와 호흡을 맞춘 사랑스러운 여배우 주이 드샤넬 (Zooye Deschanel)이 주인공이기 때문에!!

그 사실 하나 만으로 검증도 필요없이 무조건 보기 시작함^^

커다랗고 파란 눈동자와 앞머리를 내린 컬리한 헤어스타일이 너무도 귀여운 주이 드샤넬.

1980년 생으로 부모님도 유명한 배우출신이라고…? 대표작으로는 500일의 섬머, 엘프, 해프닝, 예스맨 등이 있다.

극중 이름은 제스 데이 (Jess<- Jessica Day)다.

제스의 사랑스러운 외모를 더욱 매력적으로 보이게 만드는 건 바로 몸을 아끼지 않는 망가지는 몸개그ㅋㅋㅋ

가끔 정말 골 때리는 그녀의 원맨쇼가 뉴걸이 다른 이쁜이들의 시트콤과 차별되는 점 이랄까?

특히, 제스는 뭐든 노래로 불러 제낀다 ㅋㅋ

자기 이름을 소개할 때도 “I’m Jess. I’m Je~~~~~~~ss!!” ♬ 하고 한 번 더 노래로 불러주고ㅎㅎ

실제로 She & Him이라는 인디밴드로도 활동 중인 주이 드샤넬.

가끔 아웃렛 몰에 가면 흘러나오는 In the Sun 이라는 곡도 참 좋다~

그녀의 허스키한 목소리가 참 듣기 좋다.

뮤직비디오 보기->

”

뉴 걸은 20대 후반(현재 30세)의 초등학교 교사인 제스가 (현재는 해고됨ㅋ) 세명의 남자들과 룸메이트가 되면서 겪는 알콩달콩 코믹한 이야기다.

앞으로 닉(Nick) 과의 관계가 어떻게 진행될 것인지가 궁금해지는 가운데, 매주 화요일을 손꼽아 기다리게 만드는 one of my favorite shows!

끝으로,

—————–뉴걸에서 나온 영어표현들 모아봤음—————–

1. I totally lost track of time. 시간 가는 줄 몰랐네.

2. You should put yourself out there. 적극적으로 밀어붙여.

3. Let’s just cut the crap, OK? 헛소리 집어치우고 본론을 말해봐.

6. I’m gonna be home late tonight. Don’t wait up. 나 오늘 늦으니까 기다리지마.

7. Gas, electric, and cable comes out to $219.34. 가스비, 전기세, 케이블 요금 합계가 219.34 달러야.

*come out to= add up to 합계가 (총) ~다.

8. They are not all legal tenders, but they have value. 화폐는 아니지만 가치 있는 물건들이라구.

9. Recently, I went through life change where I was fired. 내가 요즘 큰 변화를 겪었잖아. 해고도 당하고…

*go through 겪다

10. I’m shutting off the gas until you get me the money. 돈 가져올 때까지 가스 끊는다.

*shut off=turn off 중단하다, 끄다

11. Don’t scapegoat me. 나를 희생양으로 만들지마. *scapegoat 희생양, 희생양으로 삼다

12. That’s called tough love. 이런 걸 사랑의 매라고 하는 거야.

*tough love 사랑의 매

13. Don’t call me a ninny. I’m PMSing. 나한테 멍청이라고 하지마. 나 그날이야!

*ninny 멍청이 *PMS(pre-menstrual syndrome) 생리전 증후군

14. I’m refusing to pay my gas bill as a matter of principle. 원칙적인 문제 때문에 가스비를 안내고 있는 거라구.

15. Nothing at all is going to set you off? 어떤 것에도 열 안받는다고?

*set something/someone off 유발하다, 경보를 울리다 폭탄을 터뜨리다…

16. They are both gagged and blindfolded. 둘다 입을 막고 눈을 가렸어.

17. I should also warn you guys that my mother is a little bit perky.

미리 알려주는 건에 우리 엄마가 좀 많이 발랄해.

*perky 발랄한, 생기 넘치는

18. He mad my life a living hell. 내 인생을 생지옥으로 만들었어.

*a living hell 생지옥

19. Admittedly, this is a little bit crazy. 이건 좀 미친 짓이야. 나도 인정해.

20. I feel like you’re just throwing this together. 너 너무 급조하는 느낌이 든다.

*throw something together 서둘러 만들다, 뚝딱 준비하다

21.It’s my plan B. 그게 나의 차선책이야.

22. I’m slowly regretting this. 슬슬 후회되기 시작하는데?

23. It seems to me like this whole thing is a draw. 결국 무승부인 것 같아.

*draw 비김, 무승부

24. The position is up for grabs. 그 자리는 모두에게 열려 있어.

*be up for grabs 누구나 손에 쥘 수 있는, 할 수 있는

25. She was high as a kite. 완전 쩔어 있었어. (술 또는 마약 등)

26. We’re actually happier apart. 우린 사실 떨어져 살아야 더 행복해.

27. You have to lighten up, Jess. 기운 내, 제스.

28. I’m really happy that we got past all that. 다 지난 일로 해주셔서 감사드려요.(행복해요)

*get past 지나가다, 통과하다

29. Wow, that’s so upsetting! 와! 저거 진짜 짜증나네!

30. How can I put this delicately? 이걸 어떤 식으로 잘 말해야 될까?

31. I’m asking more out of curiosity than fear. 무섭다기 보다 진짜 궁금해서 그러는 건데…

32. Duck down ! 머리 숙여! 고개 숙여!

33. preaching to the choir. 두말하면 잔소리 (모두다 잘 알고 있어)

34. I’ll man up. 남자답게 해볼게.

35. I think it’s important that that’s been said. 미리 말해놓는게 중요할 것 같아서..

*that’s been said 듣다, 말해지다

thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 9:58 PM Hello! highglossfinish — Yesterday at 9:58 PM Hello there! How's life? thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:01 PM Well, I can't complain How are things with you? highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:02 PM Hectic. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:02 PM nodnods highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:02 PM But I can't complain. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:04 PM Shall we use watchparty again, or should I fire up the discord app and hope? highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:04 PM No harm in hoping. If not, watchparty exists. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:05 PM Honestly, these problems have been going on since at least The Terror; they'd just gotten worse recently. highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:06 PM That's...bizarre. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:08 PM I assume it's some update/updates, or something to do with it being routed through different servers, or something Mimic — Yesterday at 10:09 PM Hello! highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:09 PM Hello! thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:09 PM Once, trying to play Jackbox, it was so bad that it would literally never load the host's screen, just stay stuck on the loading thing. Mimic — Yesterday at 10:10 PM Also sometimes a security update just breaks shit and they have to fix it, slowing the whole thing down to uselessness. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:10 PM Here, uh... it sort of works, in that I only have to click "stop watching" and then click the stream again when it freezes... every minute or two. Wazkalia — Yesterday at 10:17 PM Hello! I'd join, but uhhh...I got hard mode college work to finish up tonight. Enjoy your movie night!! thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:14 PM Oooooo, this looks cool highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:15 PM Breakdown got very emotional over this.

thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:16 PM It's extremely good highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:18 PM This is going to be one of those "I have absolutely zero knowledge of whether this is good" nights. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:19 PM Those can be fun! We'll just have to see. :slight_smile: First question: can the humans understand the monkey highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:21 PM This would be beyond intolerable if it were anyone else voicing the kinkajou. Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:22 PM Yeah he has mild boss baby vibes Mimic — Yesterday at 10:23 PM This feels like a Madagascar spinoff that couldn’t get the rights to the name through legal nonsense thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:24 PM ...Maybe. highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:27 PM The monkey has a foul little personality and I don't like it. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:27 PM I'm a little weirded out by the jealousy vibe highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:28 PM "We fell in love due to our shared trait of having tiny, tiny faces." thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:28 PM I wasn't going to say anything But yes. highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:29 PM "Marta can't compare to what my monkey hands can do!" thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:29 PM nooooooooo Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:29 PM Why have you said this thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:29 PM I still can't tell if he can understand the monkey. Like, that could have been a conversation, or the guy could have been doing the "talking to a pet" thing. It's bugging me highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:30 PM It did say earlier that their only shared language is music. Possibly a little bestiality. Mostly music. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:30 PM You stop that. Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:31 PM Ech Music is very good highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:31 PM I've said my piece. Now we can all spend the rest of the movie thinking about it. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:31 PM Or we could spend the rest of the movie NOT thinking about it And now it has him making little monkey noises. Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:32 PM Why is the monkey like this highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:32 PM "No, I take an uncomfortable amount of issue with this!" Smokescreen — Yesterday at 10:33 PM Monkey...... How much have I missed? thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:34 PM Hi, Smokescreen! This dude is going to travel to see an old musical partner and sing with her, and his pet trained monkey partner is very against it For uh reasons ...Oh no. Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:35 PM OH Smokescreen — Yesterday at 10:35 PM I didn't know humans could train monkeys yet! Mimic — Yesterday at 10:35 PM Long standing practice. Normally can’t make them sing tho thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:35 PM The monkey is a funny talking animal but the human characters don't seem to understand him. highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:36 PM

Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:37 PM wheeze Smokescreen — Yesterday at 10:37 PM That That's the most positive way I've EVER heard someone talk about Florida I think! thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:37 PM :frowning: highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:41 PM He gets to Florida and immediately regrets it. Smokescreen — Yesterday at 10:41 PM He goes to Florida, sings a musical number, and immediately leaves Mimic — Yesterday at 10:44 PM when anyone gets to florida, they either regret it, or become floridian. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:45 PM "let" her have the hairstyle she wants on her own head, how "generous" highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:46 PM The monkey's had no shots but it's Florida so it's fine. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:47 PM ...wow Smokescreen — Yesterday at 10:47 PM Petting zoo............................................ thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:47 PM I really dislike that mom The kid is kind of annoying but she's also like 10 Hopolites — Yesterday at 10:49 PM I think the monkey lives between dimensions and thats why he reacts to all the songs like theyre really happening Smokescreen — Yesterday at 10:49 PM Wait, she's even younger than Raf? She really is a newspark!! thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:51 PM Rude. Mimic — Yesterday at 10:52 PM also this is florida. how is a well-behaved monkey the weirdest thing tehy've seen on a bus thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:53 PM ewwwwwww Pfff highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:56 PM All of these characters are unpleasant. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:56 PM Gee, I wonder why she doesn't want to be in their troop Personal space! highglossfinish — Yesterday at 10:57 PM Again. Florida. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 10:57 PM "Oh yeah I'm on the way to the vet right now" that's all you have to say ...they don't even know where he was going well. I mean, it wasn't the weight, there was just something sharp that punctured the lifeboat :wave: highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:03 PM At least when she gets hopelessly lost in the middle of the Everglades she'll have plenty of monkey to eat. Smokescreen — Yesterday at 11:03 PM What if the monkey eats first Mimic — Yesterday at 11:03 PM and so will the alligators thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:03 PM This is why you lock your computer when you leave .... highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:05 PM "My dad used to say that immediately before he was eaten by alligators." You hated her four minutes ago. Mimic — Yesterday at 11:06 PM musical numbers fix everything thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:06 PM They're bonding over this very dangerous situation! pffffffff Lady it's a bus, it's gonna stop sometime highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:11 PM Unless the monkey interfaces with the bird I fail to see how this character is needed. Mimic — Yesterday at 11:11 PM so this is what's happening now thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:11 PM wow Mimic — Yesterday at 11:12 PM was that a fuckin' pun highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:13 PM Well, that was pointless! thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:13 PM Hey, I'm sure they'll be back sometime Feels a little weird that she set this up and advertised it on the assumption he'd come highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:14 PM It would be hilarious if they didn't. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:14 PM Okay how the fuck did they find her in the middle of the everglades How did they get that >how big is the everglades 7,800 mi² Do any snakes anywhere have teeth like that Sharpwing — Yesterday at 11:18 PM Hey, I'm afraid I can't drop in tonight (or maybe any night from now on... got a new job), but what's the movie? Mimic — Yesterday at 11:18 PM Vivo, on Netflix Sharpwing — Yesterday at 11:18 PM And why is Lin-Manuel Miranda a kinkajou WHY IS A KINKAJOU IN FLORIDA Mimic — Yesterday at 11:18 PM because for some reason he took the contract with netflix Sharpwing — Yesterday at 11:18 PM Fair. Mimic — Yesterday at 11:18 PM and that's the plot of the movie! Sharpwing — Yesterday at 11:19 PM Oh, ok! Fish out of water thing. highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:21 PM His singing voice is the only good thing about the movie. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:22 PM "they're weak to that type!" Sharpwing — Yesterday at 11:22 PM I'll have to take a look at The Disaster later XD Mimic — Yesterday at 11:23 PM and there's some Lin Manuel Miranda flow. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:23 PM Hehehehehe yesss. Mimic — Yesterday at 11:23 PM ONLY THE BEST LESSONS IN THIS MOVIE thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:24 PM aw nooooo highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:24 PM None of this would have happened if you hadn't gone through the Everglades. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:24 PM very true. They could have caught a later bus. Missed the show, maybe, but they could have found her after Smokescreen — Yesterday at 11:25 PM Whoa, that goose looks weird thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:26 PM Prediction: Gabby remembers the lyrics, at least Mimic — Yesterday at 11:26 PM it's a spoonbill. basically, it's a flamingo-goose hybrid that is designed to look a lot stupider. Smokescreen — Yesterday at 11:27 PM Ohhhh. How big ARE they? Like. They look like they could gnaw on my whole head. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:28 PM awww ...they had NO plan just slip it under the door highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:32 PM All of this could have been prevented by showing her mother the paper with the song her dead uncle wrote for this specific person. thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:33 PM To be fair her mom hasn't exactly been a "listener" highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:34 PM Not to her daughter. To an old dead man, maybe. "We could have spent our entire lives together...oh well!" thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:37 PM ...she asked YOU to take her highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:38 PM Who needs tickets? thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:38 PM I'm SURE there were some seats left in this farewell concert for a very famous and popular singer! highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:38 PM And no one guarding the doors! Smokescreen — Yesterday at 11:39 PM The true fantasy is getting everyone to learn the song in like, an hour highglossfinish — Yesterday at 11:39 PM Was there any reason why he couldn't have just...gone with her? And is that the name of the venue they're plugging into this very poignant song? Oh no you don't! Well! That was stupid. Mimic — Yesterday at 11:44 PM extremely so thenightetc2 — Yesterday at 11:44 PM Good songs. Dubious everything else. Smokescreen — Yesterday at 11:45 PM this video is basically my thoughts on that movie! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AeSBvMdJF6U YouTube Fargield Monkey kung fu panda

Mimic — Yesterday at 11:45 PM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5kUWn3HqXw also I've been holding onto this. YouTube Screen Rant Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen Pitch Meeting

Well! :smile: Amazing. thenightetc2 — Today at 12:02 AM I love the logic here. Oh my god highglossfinish — Today at 12:06 AM Dear Unicron. thenightetc2 — Today at 12:06 AM There's no way for me to check that! Mimic — Today at 12:07 AM it's just not possible thenightetc2 — Today at 12:08 AM What is it with Decepticons and trying to harvest the sun. highglossfinish — Today at 12:09 AM It's not even a good sun. thenightetc2 — Today at 12:09 AM There are lots of suns! Galaxy's full of 'em! Just take one nobody's living near. Memorable's one word for it! Mimic — Today at 12:11 AM right??? thenightetc2 — Today at 12:12 AM ..."Venom pitch meeting" highglossfinish — Today at 12:12 AM There are some words for it and that sure is one of them. thenightetc2 — Today at 12:12 AM I mean, it is certainly a thing that people remember. highglossfinish — Today at 12:13 AM Rom-com. thenightetc2 — Today at 12:13 AM And other times a romance! One of the best rom-coms I've ever seen! He's Elon Musk; THAT'S his deal. Excellent. highglossfinish — Today at 12:17 AM Well, that was more fun than Vivo! Mimic — Today at 12:18 AM to be fair, it's a little easy to clear that bar thenightetc2 — Today at 12:18 AM Fewer musical numbers, and yet Well. That was fun! Thank you for the stream. highglossfinish — Today at 12:19 AM Thank you for being here! Mimic — Today at 12:19 AM thanks again! highglossfinish — Today at 12:20 AM Of course! Good night! thenightetc2 — Today at 12:20 AM Goodnight! Mimic — Today at 12:20 AM good night! thenightetc2 — Today at 12:24 AM Vivo like, "You know what's stupid and annoying? When people care about the environment and think you shouldn't import exotic animals and set them loose in sensitive ecosystems! And you know what's the WORST? When people like peace and quiet! They probably want to murder you" Hopolites — Today at 12:25 AM Florida's ecosystem is already fucked, it doesnt need a monkey Mimic — Today at 12:26 AM Agreed. but clearly, we're sympathizing too hard with the... weak excuses for antagonists thenightetc2 — Today at 12:32 AM But I have to admit I'm genuinely glad that apparently her mom let her quit the troop. highglossfinish — Today at 12:45 AM "You know what's especially fun? Not paying for tickets to things." thenightetc2 — Today at 12:53 AM And really, why should you.
