My son, if you truly wish to eat righteously you must seek within your soul and your wallet. For the Burger's love surrounds us with greasy soy product goodness. For lo, it is written in the Church and Munch™ franchise bible: Let he who hungers take nourishment at the drive thru of the Burger. Amen.
Sighs at all the confusion and rioting outside Well, I tried, but I think this franchise is a losing proposition. Dials his Holy Ghost Sidekick Yeah, Harry? Yeah I'm bailing on this location. Yeah, I'm getting a lot of complaints, tribble terrorists, rogue god-modders. Yeah, I'm gonna head out towards Arcturus. Yeah. No biggy, plenty of franchise opportunities. Yeah, trigger the bailout clause, transfer title back to the Elder Eye Cult, call in the Combat Engineers and strip this dump out. Yeah I'm done. Packs up papers, gets in PopeForce One and takes off towards the stratosphere.
Looks at the phone. Shrugs. Dials another number Yeah, General Chaos? Big Stevie here. Got a situation over at the new franchise. Uh huh. Yeah some undesirables hanging about scaring the customers. Uh huh. Yeah had some commandos, but they got taken on a tour of the Abyss, and now they're locked in the back still shell shocked. Uh huh. You think you could send a detachment of the Swiss Cheese Guards over? Un huh. No no, they can bivouac right over by the dumpsters for a while, call it 'Urban riot field training'. And make sure they are wearing those Dimensional anchor riot helmets. Uh huh. Ok, I'll be expecting them. Yep, Semper Parmigianus to you too. Buh bye. Flips off cell phone and hums to himself as he does paperwork and demolishes his fourth Double Bacon Explosion™ of the day
Demon Lord of Tribbles wrote: could I have a copy of that spell? I need to laminate it as proof of such wrongness Big Stevie looks askance at the demon OK, but I'm copying it for you. No touching my Holy Book of Franchise Management, you might combust! I have some mega juju set on this tome! Jots down spell and gets ready to hand it to the furry fiend when he pauses I want my troops back first, Fuzzy!

Big Stevie smiles widely Of course of course! Always happy to help out fellow spell casters. Opens large jewel-encrusted tome. Let's see ... Protection from Class Action Lawsuits, Protection from Building Inspectors, Protection from E. Coli, Protection from Health Inspectors, Protection from Tort Lawsuits ... AH! Here we are! Protection from Strippers, 100' radius. Also comes with an optional Summon Police VII spell in case they get rowdy at the fringes of the protected area. Allows KC and kittens to copy spell down
Hey, you want to contract out for the Church and Munch™ Grand Opening afterparty, that's one thing. Here's my card, it's got my cell number on it. But this is a family-friendly eating establishment! We're trying to sell Double Bacon Explosion Bliss Meals™ to little kids, not give them an unexpected lesson in female anatomy! Hands the tribble lord a business card. We have the Mason lodge down the street rented for the evening. Lots of booze and ... ahem ... adult entertainment. Everything in its proper place my furry fiendish friend. Turns and welcomes some more customers with a big cheesy smile and a wave of his bejeweled crozier Come in! Come in! All meals half off in celebration! Kids get a free Jeeze Whiz Holy Communion Wafer Cone™ with every Bliss Meal!™ Come on in!
The Spankh Guard Elite Command squad rappels down from their assualt gyrocopters onto the group of rascally anarchs, demon lords and strippers, taking them prisoner and deporting them to the penal colony planet HoL. Big Stevie waves as the scruffy anarch, the horned tribble-human hybrid and the silicone-enhanced dancers are blasted off to their new home Uh buh bye!
Finally, the temple renovation is complete. The old mossy walls have been scrubbed and sheathed in day-glo colored polystyrene clapboards. A giant Spankh (half spork and half ankh) has been erected outside the temple, with neon LED lights running along its periphery. The drive thru is ready, a smiling St. Festus of Coney Island (patron saint of gluttony) statue serving as the drive thru speaker. The temple's old moat has been filled with rubble and asphalted over, leaving a wide parking area. Plastic picnic tables line the outside. On the side of the temple a new Lil' Alterkid play area has been erected with a smiling statue of a priest as the entrance. Children crawl through a tunnel in the statue's robes. A large sign flashes out on the roadway.. CHURCH AND MUNCH
Blinking on and off again in bright neon colors. Big Stevie stands backs and grins And on the eighth day I franchised this sucker ..and it was good! DAMN GOOD!
Surveys the damage. Dials his Holy Ghost Sidekick Hi Mort? Does our construction insurance policy cover hostile arcane acts? Uh huh .. uh huh .. really? 2.5 Mil? Not bad. Okay, I'll get some pics and email them over. You still use the LegalTeam@Avernus.dev email? Okay, yep ..yep .. See you at the grand opening! Starts walking around taking pictures of the damage with his phone. Minions start clearing the wreckage.
Never fear. I am leaving you heretics to your own devices. I have a new franchise going up across the way, and I don't have the time or resources for a proper crusade at the moment. Farewell. Exits Stage Left, Swiss Cheese Guards and minions trailing after. The engines of a Mark VII Surface-To-Orbit Popemobile fire up from offstage.
A large truck bearing the sigil Acme Depot rolls up in front of the dilapidated temple. It unloads plywood, packs of 2X4s, five-gallon paint buckets, and 40-pound Portland II concrete sacks onto the ground. A group of large clean-shaven men in combat uniforms with hard hats on swarm over the raw materials, splitting them up and carrying them into the old ruined temple. Much banging and sawing commences. Big Stevie wadddles into scene, a roll of architectural plans under his flabby arm. A host of Swiss Cheese Guards and various sychophants trail after him. He points and hollers as he waddles through, while simultaineously talking on his Holy Ghost Sidekick. "That's it! The salad bar will go over there at the old sacrificial altar. Can someone PLEASE paint over those nasty murals of Iuz? They are really tacky. Who's doing the electrical work? I need you to run a 10K line for the sign out front. Yeah, leave it out where that ugly eye statue is right now, that's going tomorrow ...."
Swivels over to the bright godling Ahha! The head heretic! I am considering a repurposing of your thread. Its full of strippers, tribbles and excitable kobolds with too many spell slots for their own good. Nothing but heresy as far as the eye can see. There is still time to repent and participate in our Double Bacon Explosion Half-Price Fun Friday Sing-A-Long™!

Looks askance at the pagan treant fellow "Never claimed I did good fellow! I merely marketed the thing to the masses!" Extends a sliced Double Bacon Explosion Bliss Meal™ "Would you like one?"
Big Tex wrote: Ah...I was just gonna tell KC that he wuz gonna have ta inconvenience ya. Ah .. good fellow. Say you look like a strapping fellow, have you ever considered a career in the Assistant Manager Deacon program offered by Church and Munch™? Lots of oppotunities for a bright young lad like yourself.
Harumfs My good lizard, I was merely preparing a marketing crusade on this thread. I didn't threaten or kill anyone. Now I can go at this as long as you require, but I do not understand why I have attracted your shrieking yowliness. The porcine priest points to Big Tex. Yes! You with the excitable hand! What do you require?
Big Stevie chuckles And who would be godmodding now, little lizard? I assume you pulled this mysterious Dispeller out of your beltpouch? And voila! Pulls an Anti-Dispeller Field Generator from his voluminous cloak. I have this now. Turns on field and resumes his lunch Not to mention if attacking an inhabitant is grounds for leaving a thread ... stares pointedly at the small lizard.
The smoke clears and Big Stevie is left frowning, tapping his foot, surrounded by scowling Swiss Cheese Guards. I tire of this charade lizard. I am trying to enjoy my lunch here. I have been evangelizing this thread since its inception, so I would ask you to find another pontiff to bother. turns back to his Double Bacon Explosion. Much munching ensues.
Murmurs to his minions inaudibly We are reading full power, so I am not sure how you can say the force shields are weak, but as you will. Begins talking once again into his communicator. A Swiss Cheese Guard brings a tray with a large sliced sausage log covered in melted cheese for his lunch. MMMMM... Double Bacon Explosion with cheese ....
The bead bounces off the hemispherical force shields and detonates among several nice pieces of sculpture, causing quite a mess. Really. Is this any way to act? I have not offered you any violence, but keep this up and I will be forced to sic my Swiss Cheese Guards on you. Looks at the statue of Sunny Godhead the previous lightning bolt struck at the centerpoint Tsk. It was such a nice statue for a heathenish idol too. I was thinking of taking it back to my corporate headquarters on New Vatican.
The kobold's Dispel Magic fails since the Swiss Cheese Guards' force shields are scientifically based. His lightning bounces off the force shields, striking Sunny Godhead square in the smilies Hrmf. I am not 'assimilating' anything. If anything I was simply concerned as a shepherd of souls about the fate of these poor heathens. If anyone is causing damage it would be you with your flashy displays of violence. I am simply trying to help these poor misguided tofu eaters see the error of their ways. That and whip up some enthusiasm for our new Church and Munch™ menu item, the Double Bacon Explosion!™ (now with more nitrates!)
