Yeah, lets get outta here.

*sups his one-handed with difficulty and still holding the cane goes to look for his pack ...... but is stopped at canes length from Garius*

Hmmmmmmm

*Stumbles as the cane goes taut, spilling some .*

Ooops. I seem to have spilled my tea on your shoes, Red Dog. So sorry, ol' chap. I'd let you borrow my clown shoes while yours dry out, but I have a policy of only lending one thing at a time to any particular person.

*Gives the cane a wrench.*

I'll pass on the shoes Garius I haven't finished with the cane yet.

*gives cane a hard push prodding Garius and spilling on the clown shoes*

Hah !

You two, stop it! I believe we have more important things to do than worrying about that cane!

*nods at Zomnker in agreement*

And you are spilling a good cuppa too.

*still holding on tight to cane*

Can someone pass me my backpack please .... it's over there underneath one of those filing cabinets covered in unmentionable stuff from several of those dead CLI/STUMPED guys. I think that's at least a whole spleen and maybe a bit of liver sitting on top of it.

*Pretends to consider the request.*

Ummmmmmmm... No.

*gripping cane tightly*

Oh come on now Witty, don't be squeemish - just move that piece of lower intestine out of the way and you won't have to go near that pancreas.

*tugs on cane to see if garius's grip is loosening*

*Folds arms over chest.*


No!

*Holds on firmly to the cane.*

Hmmmmm. Should be no problem to get your, er, backpack , Red Dog. Just let go of the cane for a moment, then go get it yourself. Shouldn't take but a moment. You certainly wouldn't want to leave here without it. And I'll take good care of the cane in the meantime.

Oh puh-leeeease!

Oi! You cut it out, guys! Right now! Or I'll morph into Kristina!

Now, could we please make some progress here?

*coming from someone who's been chewing quite a lot of PAG in the past*

*Tries to sneak up on Red Dog and administer a sleeper nerve-pinch to the back of his neck*

*superglues paw to cane*

*Tries to keep Red Dog's attention away from Affy*

RD, why don't you just give it back so we can get on with the mission, I REALLY want to get back to our own time. I got tons of backlog to catch up on and this little tiff of yours and GL's isn't helping any.

*As the LoC demands that he can't actually /say/ that he's administered a sleep hold as that would require actually stating that Red Dog was unsuccesful in noticing his approach, Affy tries *YET AGAIN* to administer the sleep pinch. But this time, he tries really, really, really hard to do so, and to do so without being noticed. With gusto*

I'm going to be away for the next week, so perhaps we could continue our tiff until I get back. I'll just pop in some PAG, and you all can assume that I keep hold of my end of the cane. A spot of tea might do well for the spectators. When I get back, I'll move us to the next place.


I saw that, Red Dog! That was crazy glue, wasn't it? Well, it's a shame you'll be losing that skin on your paw, then.

*Pulls extra hard on the cane, while popping some PAG in his mouth.*

*RD is pulled forward as GL tugs on the cane narrowly avoiding Affy's nerve pinch and falling flat on his face*

Oooof !

sorry Affy - I thought you were trying to sneak up not trying to administer a nerve pinch

/* Zeppo runs to where Red Dog had been pointing, grabs the spleen and drops it at Red Dog's feet. He then grabs the middle part of the stick that RD and GL are playing tug-of-war with and pulls, growling happily, in a third direction. */

*being dragged along the floor still firmly attached to the cane*

Zeppo ! No Zeppo !! Bad dog Zeppo !!

*notices new teeth marks and drool on the cane*

Oh no !!!!
