i actually have no idea what's in it, i never asked the IIEM.
one day i was kinda tired, you know "needed some mood juice".
i know it's just a fig. of speech, but i figured, what the heck?
and i asked it for mood juice and this is what i got. good stuff, this is.
hey, i'm not really in control of how much dust my fairy puts off.
speaking of Twinkie, perhaps she'd like to join the fun!
*plays a little ditty on his sax till Twink pops out*
watch the dust today, will ya, twink?
*Twinkie floats around happily spreading the dust around, ignoring
Bahb.*

*feeling the Mood Juice, bahb, starts playing Metallica hits on his sax before getting into some basic "coffe" hits.

Odra, if it's too much, I would suggest a cup of anticoffe to counteract RB's Brew.
Bahb, does twinkie eat anything?
I also liked your version of 'And Justice For All' there.

No, no...it's not half bad, actually...just takes a bit of getting used to...and -- hey! l think the surface of the coffee is forming a stereogram!
*takes to staring, again*
Um. Babel? Should l be able to see the face of Satan in my coffee mug?

i really don't know. you could try feeding her something, but i've been giving her doses of M.J. and she seems to like that fine.
*looking around*
well, getting late you know. could you guys watch my fairy till i return?
you know, put her in a safe spot, give her a donut or two and some Mood Juice every now and then. nothing too strong, tho, or she'll get too heavy to fly.
thanx!
g'night all!
see you later, Twink!
*twinkie floats about, seemingly oblivious to bahb's departure.*
you can't fool me, Twink, i know you'll miss me.
*leaves, playing a funeral dirge on his sax*

*nervously looks over to Odradek*
Er...perhaps all this fairy dust is affecting what you see. Lets have a look.
*peers over Odra's shoulder into the cup*
That's not Satan! It's Ook's reflection looking down from the rafters over your head!

*shakes head, blinks a few times*
Ah. Ook. Of course. Hi, Ook!
Yes, yes, l'm fine, Ook, don't worry...just a bit groggy, 's all. Caffiene does that to me; puts me right to sleep. Dunno quite why...

Well, goodnight Bahb.
Er, right, well we appear to have inherited a fairy, for the moment!
*giggles come from the closet*
Oh well, better tidy this place up. Again. might as well let the bot clean up all this fairy dust again, and then I will change it's dust bag. can't have the cleaning bot going haywire on us.
* lets bot out of the closet*
Clean up the dust please.
* a little electronic sound similar to a 'wahey' comes from the cleaning bot*
*B-17 clears down the tables, wipes them all and then the counter, washes all the cups/mugs. The cleaning bot finishes clearing up all the fairy dust and starts to do a little jig in the middle of the floor*
Oh, no.

Odradek (she who lurks, green Lifesaver-like) Posted Jun 17, 2000
*watches the bot a bit sleepily, then has an idea. Grinning rather mischeviously, she spills remainder of coffee on floor, and bot races over to clean up...yet halts, fascinated by the blackness...*
Heh. That's a trick you learn from people who enjoy "fairy dust" and other hallucinagens a bit -too- much...

Odradek (she who lurks, green Lifesaver-like) Posted Jun 17, 2000
*having sucessfully transfixed the 'bot, she mops up coffee on her own, escorts bot to closet, and shuts door*
There. All better.

*grabs cleaning bot and wrestles it to the floor. It is still giggling. B-17 flips open the door in its chest and flips a switch. the light dims in the bots eyes. B-17 removes the dust bag, replaces all filters and places a new bag in the bot. Flips switch on again.
Bot gets up and cleans up the spilt coffee. It returns to the closet*
Glad that's done with.
Do you want something else to drink Odra?

Odradek (she who lurks, green Lifesaver-like) Posted Jun 17, 2000
Hee. Try that wrestling trick on those evil simulpost gremlins...
Hm. What's this anticoffee of which you speak? 'F it's not too much trouble, 'course...
Coffee Counter Fri. 16-06-2000
Babel17 Posted Jun 17, 2000
Well lest we get a continuity alert, what happened? Personally I think you just halucinated puting the bot back in the closet. Too much redbeards brew. (Please?)
As for anticoffee, it is a drink that negates the effects of caffeine.
you are more than welcome to try one, infact in light of recent events, I think we could both do with one!
*prepares 2 anticoffees. c() c(). Hands one to Odradek*
Cheers.

Not bad. l feel sanity returning already...
Good lord. Remind me never to mix RBB and Twinkie dust again...
