It's not the fact that it *IS* a mountain, it's the *SHAPE* of the mountain.
I mean, from this angle, doesn't it strike you that that mountain looks, well, odd?

[The twins shift their positions and regard the "mountain" with surprise]

I mean, most mountains I've seen have the wide bit at the bottom and the pointy bit at the top...

[The twins nod in agreement, and remove their SEP fields; even though they can now be seen, they aren't yet]

*Too busy looking at the odd-mountain to notice any twins*

*Looks at mountain, and wonders if there is infact something missing......*
I'd never really noticed that before.... 
EeeeekkK! ... *Looks at the twins in amazement...*
....where did you come from??!

[Ketsar] }We came from Earth.{
[Poxlu] {We've been here a bunch of posts, in SEP fields.}
The River
The Fish Posted Dec 2, 2000
Oh... ok....
I never touch SEP field myself... they've got nothing to do with me... 
*Punts happily up stream*
.... fancy some 
(hot chocolate)?
The River
Bluebottle Posted Dec 2, 2000
A mountain is about to fall on our heads, and your making Hot Chocolate?
Good idea, thanks.

Ketsar and Poxlu, the MewOne Twins Posted Dec 3, 2000
[Ketsar] }Sure.{
[Poxlu] {Some for me.}
The River
The Fish Posted Dec 3, 2000
*Pours four mugs of (hot chocolate)*
Here you all go...
Nothing like to hot chocolate, to send you to sleep in an emergency 
The River
Bluebottle Posted Dec 3, 2000
So very true.
So, shall we bother doing anything about that mountain, or just ignore it and hope it goes away?

*Agrees* 
*sips * Mmmmm.....
Oooo! A karp...
*waves at what is probably a cousin*
....
*karp waves back*
....
*Offers karp some *
....
*Karp takes *

[I think "carp" is spelt with a C, unless you mean Magikarp, in which case it's theoretically closer in evolutionarity to us.]

The moutain looms above.
What? A mountain? Above? Going to kill me?
Sleep? Hot chocolate? Food? Where?
Pokemons too?
Oh well, sips some

Ketsar and Poxlu, the MewOne Twins Posted Dec 7, 2000
[Ketsar] }Erm, "Pokémon" is both singular and plural the way "sheep" is.{
The River
Internutt Posted Dec 7, 2000
He looks around.
He sees that no one is talking to him.
He turns around.
He is surprised to find twins.
I don't care about pokémon.
They could go back to Japan where they belong.
But still, what about the mountains?
