[The Merchant Of Menace]

*Mods in a pet twibble for Jake*
*Thwarts iceballs attempts*
*looks lovingly at kitten and scratches her head*
*goes back to sleep*
Yeah I did all of that from my bed through a locked door, i fucking rule.

[UnrealJake]

*Twiddles his twibble and then places him in the cock-pit of his Mechanical Elephant and shows him how to work it*

OOC: The twibble is a small mousy/rabbit like creature with a keen sense for all thing technical. It is not at all cat like, we have enough cats.

[Twi]

In other news:
The spider-girl/drider thing (whatever you want to call her: was her name Ai? I know something was named Ai, but I can't quite be sure what it was) decides to take up clothes-making.
With silk.
How appropriate.
----
Twi notes the lake and has IDEA.
COMMENCE OPERATION: I AM MECHANIC!
Twi screams, "I need metal pipes!"

"NO! I am the mechanic here!"

[Twi]

Alright then.
COMMENCE OPERATION: I AM PLUMBER!
Twi still screams, "I need metal pipes!"

Note: If the spider girl isn't already named, name her Thera.
She's not already named.
She is now Thera.
Woot!

[UnrealJake]

"Fair nuff'... you're the plumber"

*Continues to show twibbles what the buttons do*

[iceball3]

*Attempt at thwarting me is thwarted by my physical break status!*
"Wuh?"
*Iceball3 has created the multidimensional computer!*
*I boot it up. It takes a long time.*
"............................................."
*Still hasn't booted up.*
"............................................."

[The Merchant Of Menace]

*Destroys iceballs barrier*

"No no no!" says Twi. That kind of computer doesn't work very well here.
"You see, you need to use water reactors. And mechanisms. Lots and lots of mechanisms. Ask Jake about those."

((The first 'computers' used precision gears, pulleys, et cetera. Not easy to build, given the technology of the time, but they worked pretty well. No, they did not require much power. Of course, this is Dwarf Fortress. Logically, if you put enough mechanisms together...))

OOC: People have made calculators in DF... awesome.

"Mechanisms? Well, you see..." *Rambles on about the intricacies of using a mechanism to is fullest, and the roles of the different sizes of mechanisms*

*Destroys iceballs barrier*
Edited for rageshakes

"It isn't physical,but rather dimensional, which means destroying it, however you do it, will rip apart the dimension is located, effectively."
*Generic destruction is deflected by dimensional barrier.*
"Wurp"
*Compy boots up*
"Ahh, this is... CRAP. WINDOWS 2000? OH SHIT"
*Looks around the dimensional internet for a better OS, because Microsoft doesn't exist directly on the dimensional plane.*

"VISTA!"
"No, just kidding. Try Linux, I hear it works pretty well."
Twi is clearly bored by the lack of activity tonight.
Suddenly....
TWI HAS BEGUN A MYSTERIOUS CONSTRUCTION!
((Repeating announcement from the Starcraft forum game: I'm leaving for California at 4:00 AM tomorrow!))

[iceball3]

"Linux? What is that?"
*Finds one called portalware.*
"Good enough."
*Begins installing. VEEERRRRYYY LONG TIME*
"Try to guess why I'm doing this."

[Twi]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linux
Twi helpfully shows Iceball the web page on her computer.

Now then!
Twi has completed his construction: Discoball, a polished disco ball!
This is a polished disco ball. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encircled with bands of dance and song and menaces with spikes of shiny.

Twi looks for a place to hang it: We lack a party hall!

((Yes, a disco ball. Alcohol is not enough for a party in a fortress full of catgirls and dragon girls and spider girls.))

(...Now that you've said that, not only am I aware I'm in a fort full of strange dwarf/animal hybrids, they're  also almost all FEMALE hyribds... awkwaaaaard)
