Hey, do you guys need any plumbing here?
Can you change Angel Fish's filter?

Oh, yes! I can do better. I can build an exchange system that does it automatically for years to come. And I can install golden pipes for his water that make celestial sounds suitable for a creature so angelic! And I can sculpt custom minis to enliven his tank!

Um, okay. Welcome to the club.

So we're playing Life now? Uh, let me see the rulebook for a sec. *Gets out crayons*
I'm just correcting spelling mistakes.


<Spins the dial>

Oooh, a 2.

"Pet badger dies, pay $500."

What kind of "life" is this?

Yes, that's why I came! A very pretty gnome girl once told me I should get one.

Did I catroll my own thread?


Whatever you want to do boss!

Who's turn is it anyway?

Oh! It's mine!

*spins again*

Audited. Pay 35% of your total wealth back to the bank.

This game sucks.


Now it's my turn.

<Spins>

A 10. That's good right?

"DSS takes your children. Your neighbors burn your house down."

Who made this game?

*looks at other spaces on the board*

"You contract ringworm, go back 3 spaces."

"Your financial advisor was a con artist. Turn all your money over to the bank."

"You lose a leg in an industrial accident. Move only half the number on the spinner from now on."

"Just kill yourself now, because life isn't getting any better."

I don't think there's a good square on this board!

Oh, wait, here's one...

"Millionaire offers you $30,000 for a night with your wife."

A 10. *Scribbles*
Ah, a millionaire dies and leaves me all his possessions! Nice!

{gates in, looks around, and wrinkles nose in disgust} Now now, CB, sometimes being Good does mean being Nice too. You wouldn't want the Slaadi to file a class-discrimination Lawsuit against you and your "enterprise" here, would you?

Besides, I'm certain you could have gotten one or two of those "nymphets" to scrub down any Slaad that popped in.

Hmmm... would implanting an egg in a nymphet give it the celestial template?
*Hits Fruit Slaad with moral dilemma, then blasts him out of the thread with axiomatic energy*

Yeah... see... I'm chaotic evil, not neutral. Moral dilemmas don't really work. Law... maybe.

Well, I have been washing my hands a lot, and shower everyday. It's the flu season, and you can't be too careful.

Well, the Jacks recently decided to go to war against the slaads. Not really unusual. I figured it was all good fun, everybody fights and then it's over. But then the guys kinda went overboard with the power gloating and Ambrosia Slaad is really ticked. I feel bad. She's my friend. But I'm a Jill and my loyalty is supposed to be with them. And I was actually really proud of them for winning, as sick as that probably is. I'm just not sure what the right thing to do is at this point. No matter what I do someone I care about ends up ticked off with me.
Hmm. Well, you are clearly loyal to the Jacks, but have loyalties to one of their enemies. It's tough. But, none of it is your fault. You are loyal to your family, and loyal to your friend. You cannot choose one over the other, nor should you. The Jacks probably will not strike again, and if they do, you can stop them. Just comfort your friend, I guess, and help her out. You can keep the Jacks from bugging her. I'm not really all that good at advice, but that's mine.
Somehow describing the Jacks as my family makes what I was doing last night seem very, very wrong. Congratulations, you've managed to trade one moral dilemma for another.

Think of yourself as the "wife" in the family. You know, the big, fat, matronly woman and her "husband" (never mind that the husband may change).

Ducks.

As Ambrosia's sister, I'm sure she wouldn't want you to have to choose. Many of us step over the line and everyone makes mistakes (well, except those residents of Mechanus). She's been extra moody this last week, so don't blame the Jacks and certainly don't blame yourself. If it wasn't this, something else would have set her off. She definitely didn't want to come between you and your family.

Just give her a little time for her to cool off, ok? If you want, you can always pop by the thread, but we slaadi do seem to be more preoccupied with picnics than parties.

{orders another mimosa} Do you want a drink?

Yes a drink sounds wonderful, she said, starting to perk up. So, you're Ambrosia's sister. She mentioned you once. It's a pleasure to meet you.

Well, they're not exactly "sisters" so much as 2 sides of the same d6. They killed Slaad-Barr, you know.

Whose turn is it in this Game of Life?


Do I have to? Can't we just play a nice game of Jumanji or Zathura, instead?

Hey! I'm at least a d8, maybe a d10 (Outsiders are d10 right?) But I'm slim, so I can still wear a d6 or some d4s.
Devlyn, Jack o' Nine Dales wrote:

Once upon a time, when the Slaad thread was only on the first page, Slaad-Barr stumbled in from the Outer Planes. As a chaotic Green Slaad, the strange energies of the Uncharted OTD Territories began to work on his mind and he started creating multiple aliases, including Eekster and myself.

Then, the Powers-That-Be decided the Grand Cosmology would work better if the FaWTL thread was in the OTD. Much chaos ensued... dogs and cats living together, Scorpius usurped Crais, D'Argo and Crichton blew up Scorpies base, Daniel Jackson ascended and Parker Lewis joined SG-1, Lord Bowler and Brisco Jr teamed up, Lilith baked scones and baklava, Sebastian was less evil...

Anyhow, Slaad-Barr fragmented into separate individuals. SB sought to put us all back into his head, so Eekster and I... uhm, removed him as a threat. Ghostly SB haunted the FaWTL demiplane for a short period, got Melon-Balled, turned Swedish, and made Pecan Sandie Duncan. Eventually though, Scrappy Doo Slaad buried SB's bones somewhere in the Poodle Lord demiplane. But if conditions are right and Puddle grows the most sincere pumpkin patch, he may yet arise again.

{glances at an even more confused Devlyn} It's ok, a little bit of "brain a'splode" is normal.


See what this game is doing--it's making "people" babble incoherently!


Hm, my turn? OK.

<spins...> An eight! "You will be visited by thread-crappers from another dimension. Pay $500 for busted plumbing."

Whoa, that's eery!

Wow, you certainly have a delayed reaction. And moral dilemmas work best on evil people. What I'm doing is making you feel bad about being evil. Also, I think I banished you.

I see your point. I think taking turns punching one another in the face would be more fun than this edition of Life.

Okay, an eight. Hmm. You win an all-expenses paid trip around the world. Cool! I don't see what's so bad about this game, guys. It seems fine to me. ^.^

I got a 7. Let's see. "You win an all-expenses paid trip around the world...on a leper ship."

Dang it!

Let me try! *spins* "Punted by a Jack. Move back 5 spaces" This sounds like my real life. YAP!
