ToTL: A Moment in Time - Wiregeek - 05-22-2008 Tales Snippets of The Legendary: A Moment in Time I clumped off the pad for the Base Portal receiver and clumped slowly down the hall. I glanced back and verified that yes, I was leaving glistening footprints on the durable tile. I paused outside the entrance to Lora'Lai's office, and grinned. Hoisting my tired carcass into the office, I pulled a pouch out of a suit pocket and dropped it on the desk before unceremoniously dropping myself onto the leather couch facing it. "Errr-" Lora'Lai began, eying the couch and my dripping form sprawled on it. "You know you're -" "Covered in Hamidon goop, yes." "And-" "Sitting on a rather expensive couch, yes." A raised eyebrow met this pronouncement, and Lora'Lai pulled the bag across the desk to her. Mercifully, it was dry and clean, and she teased the drawstring open and pulled out a Paragon City bankcard. Slotting it into her terminal, she looked back to me with another raised eyebrow. I smiled even wider. "This is over a hundred thousand prestige?" Lora'Lai said evenly. "Yup. Been a VERY busy week, and you know I run for the cameras when I'm working with the crew." I pushed myself up, and switched on my armor. The backup cells had regenerated sufficiently, and I bent and picked the couch up easily. Stepping down out of the office, I looked up at Lora'Lai and winked. "That should more than cover something in a nice natural fabric. I never liked this couch anyway." Whistling, I strode down the hall towards the armor maintenance bay, the couch across one shoulder like a particularly useless polearm. Lora'Lai's quiet chuckle rolled out of her office behind me, as I strode forward grinning like a cat with a thousand canaries. "No can brain today. Want cheezeburger."

(I haven't look lately - is the couch in there really that bad?) Shayne - Wiregeek - 05-22-2008 naw, the couch is fine. This is in the way of being partially inspired by my other post relating to Prestige, partially _inspiring_ the other post relating to Prestige, and partially a chance to throw a couch away. I love throwing couches away. I'm weird like that. "No can brain today. Want cheezeburger."

For some reason, I have this mental image of some Legendary member -- probably Superball -- sneaking into the office, double-taking at the blank spot where the couch was, then panicking and running down the hall looking for the missing item. "NOO!! MY PORN COLLECTION!" 'cause I'm weird like that, I guess. And I have an 8 year old who likes hiding things in the couch (though not porn mags, yet, I hope...) --sofaspud --"Listening to your kid is the audio equivalent of a Salvador Dali painting, Spud." --OpMegs Missing couch - Rev Dark - 05-23-2008 It wouldn't be Superball - he knows that the Internet is for Porn |
