A human's tale
« on: March 05, 2014, 02:39:36 pm »
Gather around little ones, for I shall tell you a tale about a  human. No, in fact we shall tell it together. You there, with the red tail, what shall be our hero's name?

I tried to play chess but two of my opponents were playing competitive checkers as a third person walked in with Game of Thrones in hand confused cause they thought this was the book club.

Jean? That's a good name, a bit cliched though, don't you think? Most humans in modern tales are called either Jean or Emma. I guess I should thank Alarialis' plays for that.
Well, no matter. Who wants to tell me what Mr. Genrique's profession is? Will he be a brave policeman? A cunning quantum physicist? An underhanded PR manager? Or something else entirely?

Jean will be a mighty and noble knight, riding onwards on his man-steed, Henry.

Knights are overdone, how about a gas attendant. Never seen one as a hero.

There was one who was the big bad.

You were planning to have a 15 year old magical girl kill Witches by drinking them under the table!? It's original, at least.

What? Oh, come on, would you really like to hear one of those new-fangled Socrcery Punk stories with mystical creatures thrown in? I, for one, prefer a classical tale of Trains and Economics. But if you all want to hear SP...?

Thank you, short ears.
Let me set the scene for you: Jean the Gas Station Attendant is sitting in a corner bar, enjoying his Cola and a Quiche, when suddely he hears an announcement on the radio: the daughter of a neigbouring president has been kidnapped by a Communist. Will Jean answer the call to adventure? Or will he, perhaps, decide to use the confusion for a nefarious perpose of his own? Like filling cars with an explosive liquid.

"Oh, man, that thing the narrator just said! Yeah, being a gas station attendant sucks. Being an evil gas station attendant sounds so much cooler. Ladies like dark and brooding types don't they?"

And so our quest is set- Jean shall become the most bad-ass  Gas Station Attendant in the world, to impress human ladies (apparently he's into that sort of thing).
