I'm wondering if fighting for an election is good enough to get me into Odin's Hall at the moment, 'cause I'm sure this one is going to kill me.  "I want  you to intimidate..."  "How much of his skin do you want us to deliver, in square centimeters?"  "No, just intimidated."  "Pain is intimidating."  *Headtable*  "Waitress, three more shots.  You guys want anything?"]<<<<<

Widows and orphans.  We need more of them.  ;-)]<<<<<

I've had some of these humanis types on my table a few times. Nothing humiliates them more than having to accept medical treatment from a meta. They all made full recoveries, but curiously, none of their attempts to harm metas ever worked out right for them again. I wonder what went wrong with them... ]<<<<<

>>>>>[My mouth got me into so much trouble once that I ended up married.  Heh, kidding, was a wonderful time to try and have the UCAS dream.  House, white picket fence, dog-drone with custom software, HOA that freaks out over neighbors that give firearms to each other for Anniversary Presents.  Getting kicked out of the gated community.  Smiling as "suddenly" every house thief in town knew no one was armed in the complex and there was a rash of break-ins there just when the rent-a-cops were upgrading their systems and couldn't get any alerts.  *Sighs*  Good times.

Actually, my mouth getting me into trouble usually does lead to good times otherwise as well.  I love it when the posh fellows think I'm just gutter trash and then find out I can fence with the best of them.  I prefer epee when fencing, but can whistle the tune with a rapier as well.  Sorry, what was I saying?  Never mind, I should try sleeping sometime this week I think.]<<<<<

Came at muh place a bit ago, wuz punched inda face by muh sistah, and did't appears like hez felt it.  Juz ask'd fer a place ta crash, pazzed over a bottlea hooch, um, "Glenfiddich" it sayz, tas payz fer it an pazzed out on da couch.  I do know he don' take noz Long Haul, givez him a nazty hangover, so he jus' probbly  push hisself twos far.  Fragger's older dan I iz, 'courze, he'z a Breeder...]<<<<<

>>>>>[Hahaha! That's a good one Money! Well, you might want to look into it... but I was actually hired to take these two out before they could do some serious damage. Damn I hate short time frames. Anyway they were willing to pay my price so it seems there's someone with deep pockets fighting your fight. You ain't that alone after all.

Breeder? I heard lots of Orks calling humans and elves breeders. Ain't so sure why... Orks don't breed? Don't tell me the storks delivers brand new Orks to Ork mommies around the world. I'd like to see that, it's so magical! Hahaha! No seriously I'm pretty curious to know why you're calling us Breeders.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Heads up, runners! Remember that creature Big Murphy and Money reported? Well, I've finished my analysis of it. It's something new. At least...I couldn't find it in any of my books. It seems to be a toxic, awakened version of the Behemoth. It's a spreader of pestilence, and...here's the bad part: it seems to suffer from essence loss. So...what we have here is an awakened toxic that's definitely out to get you. Be very, very careful around dark, wet places. I'll post some stats later once I've compiled all the data. ]<<<<<

>>>>>[I tink da term "Breeder" waz when dere waz more humies dan orkies aroun', and da Yumantis wuz alwayz yellin' 'bout havin' ta keep breedin' pure-like humies ta keep up wit' da litters Orkies hav' an' stuff.  Never called no Elf no breeder meself.  Fairy an' Keeb on occasion, but only wif dems dat I knowz well, who callz me Trog an' Tusker in turn.  Halfer ta some dwarves I know, and sir ta da trollies.  I'm a biggie ork, but deys all bigger dan me.

Dat ting in da sewers, it weren't parta da job er notin', juz came acrost it.  Turnz out onea da guyz had a recorder goinz, I'll send da files ta you, Madrecita, don' see much, hiz eyes, dey ain't da best.  Cheap Sony Knock-offz er sumptin'.  All I gotz wuz dat it wanted uz for lunchies, an' wasn't takin' no soy substitute az an option.  I'll ask Money how much boomies he used on it, dat'll tell uz how hard we needz ta killz it.  But from what I knowz of hiz huntin' habits, if he sayz he used lots, da robbry at da Metroplex Guard armery might explain howz he gotz da replacements.]<<<<<

>>>>>[ Yes, I did test it for HMHVV. It isn't a carrier. This thing is scary enough without adding that to it. I for one am intensely grateful for small mercies Anyway...here's the stats for it I managed to piece together. There isn't much there, but I'm sure we can add to it as we find out more. Just be very careful if you do decide to play biologist.

Murphy...thank you. Any data is useful at this point. I think you just earned that rejuv treatment I once offered you. And be sure to warn the troll underground. if this thing gets loose in there... ]<<<<<

Hm, lookin' at dis infermatons, it'z a guud t'ing dat Money an' I didn't get caught by dis t'ing.  Ain't much lefta Money's "Soul" er whatever dey talk abouts when it comes ta da cyberstuff.  Az for me, I'd make a damned guud feed, being a biggie Ork wit' all da lean meat an no fatties an' bad 'lestoral.  If youse want, ya can sendz da toxicology infermation ta me, and I'z might be ablez ta figurez out where da puhlooshun what made it change came frum.  Been readin' up on dat a few years ago when I ran up against a ten-foot tall roadrunner what put a hole in muh armor.  Chicken plate stopped da beak, an I broke it'z neck.  Almost ate it 'til I ran da scannery t'ing over it an saw it wuz poison fer even a toughie ork like me.  Burned da body 'steada cookin' in on da campfire.  Pity, wanted ta git some real meat.]<<<<<
