Even Newer Newest Eyrie

[Logan Darklighter]

I'm not through with "Night of the Kissogram" yet, but I had to stop to post (and to try and get my breath back after laughing my freaking ASS OFF) that this is quite possibly THE WACKIEST UF I've seen in quite a long time! 
I also have to say - 

"Who dares enter our dressing room unbidden?" he roared, a witchy edge creeping into his stentorian voice. "Know ye, foolish mortals, that ye intrude upon the sanctum of Baron Zoria and his Circle of Horns!"

- I started seriously laughing here, but it wasn't until - 

"First things first," Zoria replied. Turning to his raptly attentive bandsmen, he pointed to one and said in a commanding tone, "Tomaak. You will aid the Vampire Queen."
The robed figure he had addressed knelt and said, "While my loyalty is both eternal and unwavering, I am compelled by my own oaths to survive and serve you to ask: Why me, my Baron?"
"Because you're perfect," the Baron replied without missing a beat.
Tomaak bowed his head. "Understood, my Baron," he said, 

That I completely lost my shit and had to hang on to the arm of my chair to keep from falling out I was laughing so hard!!!  ^_^

They took to the stage - a dozen mystic-robed jazz wizards, the queen of vampires, and an immortal who was reasonably sure this was the wackiest birthday he'd had in at least a century - to find the club, a medium-sized establishment whose front of house was in better repair than the backstage spaces, still crowded and buzzing even at this late hour. The five black-clad hunters didn't escape their notice, scattered around the room and covering all the obvious exits. They were making some of the patrons a bit nervous, but in this setting - unlike out on the street in front of Coffee Kingdom - they seemed less inclined to start outright freaking the mundanes. Maybe someone up their chain of command had given them a bollocking for that phase of the operation.
Whichever, they reacted with visible consternation when their target took the stage along with the Circle of Horns and the man they'd encountered her with at Coffee Kingdom. Without any introduction or comment at all, the band launched into a high-energy instrumental, featuring the vampire on bass guitar and her henchman, a bright red electric slung on his back, working the keys of the club's battered but game old Hammond B3 organ.

So... counting the references... Circle of Horns... er... Thorns, from City of Heroes, a shout out to Buckaroo Banzai in the middle of that, a vampire queen, and now we're getting the funk down in a club with Police closing in Ala The Blues Brothers. 

EPIC WIN!

And I'm not even done reading it yet. This is going to be GOOD.
