Moe.

That is all.

Confirming my deep dislike of Ruby Rose, when Moe-droid brings maximal Moe to her first direct interaction with RR... she gets shot by RR.  

I mean. Nanites, yo, but still.

So.

Gun Guy is in Infirmary with Dying Girlfriend, and The Kid

RR shoots Moe-Droid on the bridge to prevent her from Stasising up Dying Girl (again).

SR, LD and that bastard Monk are all eating a 'special meal' prepared for them by RR when GMGF enters the scene. RR remotely locks them in the room from the bridge.  GMGF is teh only one who attempts to open the door to find out that they've been locked in, because OF COURSE.  that is all. Drink? Sip. That's just a sip.

After commerical break we have Cyrus King addressing the crew. Who? I dunno, but he's speaking through Ruby Rose, so that's... a thing.  His Voice is a better actor than she is, so score one for the audience!

Fuck yeah!  Gun Guy is ON FLEEK!

so, faced with flying into a star and all that he takes Dying Girl back to her stasis pod for use as a future plot device, takes a call from GMGF, who apparently passed him a post-it note under the table, and they roleplay the fuck out of luring RR to... um.. the portside maintenance deck?... for him to shoot her, over the comms.  I mean, I don't know what the note said (yet), but it wasn't to go turn the engines off.

The Kid, of course, is Pensive and asking for Exposition doorstops.

GOD DAMN GG and Dying Girl are acting the fuck out of their scenes together.  Twenty words between the two of them, max.   I'm going to miss her, and i just know when they bring her back (probably in a later season) it won't be as good.  Heartbreak, thy name is Hollowwood.


Anyway: The Kid gets on the bridge via, what else, a ventilation shaft and looks briefly pensive over the body of Moe-droid.   Gun Guy wins initative with Bubba against Ruby Rose, but, well, Droid, so... not very effective.  Should have brought Raquel, Gun Guy... should have brought Raquel.  I know, I know... Bubba is much cooler, but, well, he's sort of impractical.  Some sort of shockwave gun or something, and right now you need bullets.

And... the GM is a dick, because Bubba is empty after two whole shots? They must be using Feng Shui, where ammo depletion rolls are dependent on how cool the gun is.  But what would be his archetype? He's too competent to be a Gun Nut, and he's clearly not a 'killer'....  eh, drink to GM dickery, I guess.

So he goes for Lulu and Pip, smart man, but Ruby Rose forces a Kung Fu showdown instead, where she has the advantage.  Hey, I don't care much for Waif-Fu as I used to, but I'll ignore it for androids vs humans, even if the android in question is played by Ruby Rose.    Fit shits, yo.

Well, clearly Gun Guy SHOULD be an Ex-Commando, but he'd have more Kung Fu if he was, so he's gotta be just a scruffy take on the Killer archetype.  RR is so bad that they don't even give her any real Waif-fu here, just some weird rip-off of a looney-tunes fight.  

Anyway, Gun Guy tries to Parlay his way out of a losing fight and...

So.  Sigh.

Okay.  RR leapt up from her being 'turned on' (groan) and pretty much lured the cru into liking her (umlauts cost extra) by cooking for them.  There was no 'cleaning' being done, and she put the moves hot and heavy on the very-so-not-ghey-you-guys Serious Roleplayer to Dunk the Cosmic Doughnut, because... UST, because Two Fucks like a Man, even when the Men don't.

So.

Having her complain about doing these things to Gun Guy, who hasn't even sampled her cooking, much less her Cosmic Doughnut, is just really, really... REALLY... sloppy writing.  

MInd you, he was The Guy that should have been exploiting her the entire episode, right?  But he was busy getting some serious acting on with Dying Girl instead (and no, I wouldn't trade that for a heartbeat, not even if you pulled Moe-face on me. I got standards, y'all!), so they gave all that to Serious Roleplayer to do, no matter how Suspension of Disbelief it got.  Only, he's not here getting his ass beat for having the wrong archetype.

sigh.

And... feminist call out?

"I thought you were designed to serve, not to kill?"

"I find your views on androids both antiquated and offensive."

I... would find that funny if it was Serious Roleplayer getting his ass beat. Mostly I find Serious Roleplayer getting his ass beat a lot of fun, but again: we haven't had ANY scenes with Gun Guy that deserve that.  Also. Sudden Sword is Sudden.

Loner-Ninja-Badass strikes again!

Wait? Bring her HEAD to the bridge (to crack passwords I guess) but Space her Body?  I...

hmmm...

its bad, but is is a drink bad? Or is it so bad I should refuse to drink?  I mean... what, this has taken almost four hours for a single episode as it is... so... drink? Sure, when in doubt and all that.

Goddamnit!

So. aside from shit SFX with Ruby Rose's head in a box (I mean... clearly, she's in a box with her head coming out of a hole...), they have a bit where some sort of power malfunction....

... wrecks the stasis pod with dying girl?

Fuck you, show. Fuck you with a rusty pitchfork. No, with Bubba. sideways, all five feet of him.  Take it like a boss for that bullshit.  

That's it. I'm offering gold to murderhobos. Anyone need a quest? I got some writers that need a few.... lessons... in manners.   Where did I stick my pointy hat...


And... sigh. Gun Guy and Leather Daddy get their asses kicked by the now headless sexbot body for fake tension while they look for the password for nav control. Frankly, I'm still pissed about... well... you know. They killed Dying Girl in some of the most contrived bullshit ever to crawl out the back end of a bull.  I think there is a bar at the end of the block. It'll do for a tavern. Gotta be some murder-hobos around here, its teh motherfucking Badlands, after all.

No, I am NOT showing them any mercy, not even when Gun Guy confronts first her dead body in the Vault, then when Serious Roleplayer tries to take guilt on himself for activating teh Sexbot and Gun Guy shuts him down like a motherfucking Boss.   I mean... I should. I'll accept second rate murderhobos, but that's as much mercy as I'm prepared to offer.  

I mean, when it comes to sci-fi Gun Guys, I still prefer Jayne, but I gotta admit that 'Marcus/Three' is a much deeper, more complex character.    

That feels like a betrayal. I mean, I have it on very good authority (well... my Ex, but whatever) that, in real life, I AM Jayne, but I gotta be honest here. Gun Guy is just deep, yo.

And... we end. Loner-ninja-badass, that bastard Monk, doing his Fightan Training. The Kid looking Pensive at the dead body of Dying Girl. Gun Guy looking deep as shit, yo alone, and... sigh... UST not-Telenovela as GMGF confronts the 'totally-not-ghey' Serious Roleplayer in his quarters while HE is in a towel, and they... ahem... fade to black, or rather to Credits.

Disbelief totally not suspended, and I'm guessing GMGF totally took advantage of the Modular Components of Ruby Rose in an unshown scene. Probably kept a few, otherwise this 'relationship' just won't work.  

Weirdly, they still have money and Moe-Droid is out of commish, still.

Oh HELL Naw!

So Ep 8, with a recap of previously on. Normally I let that pass unremarked, because, well...

But based on what they chose, this is clearly a Backstory Episode.

All I know is there better be Moe-droid.

Before I continue, the Booze Report. So, in honor of our God Emperor, the Orange Berlisconi, I am taking a Covfefe break instead of a coffee break, mostly because between last night's run and this one, I'm down to half a bottle of scotch already. This is good shit, mind you... but I should be drinking the cheap shit. I may tap into my room-mates Modelo just to stretch the supply.  I am a superhuman drinker, which is entirely appropriate as I am, in fact, the Scottish Jesus. I have photographic evidence.    Clearly there is a good buzz going, but with that comes a mild headache, which is six.. no, eight... hours ahead of schedule. That is... annoying.

Anyway, on with le episude (Fake french for the win!)

ok, so way too quick for a comment, but:

First: I doubt space stations have concrete walls.  Just sayin'. Also, there is a... I presume Android (Hair seems to be a givaway for this show) who manages to look even MORE Famke than dying girl did, despite being le blonde.   Lastly, with the previous cameos from killjoys I really want the random NPC in this scene where Leather Daddy tries to get intel on his Nemesis to be the killjoy boss from, well, Killjoy. Not the Big Bad, the Awesome Ginger with Rockstar Hair.  I mean... I REALLY wanted him to be that guy, but he's not. He's some random, shit, Kanedan Actor that isn't a magnificent Ginger Asshole.

Well.. I mean teh guy does vaguely remind me of James Hetfield, so there's still some rockstar asshole to go 'round.

So, I guess that the hair does NOT mean Android, either that or she's a shit android.  Also, James Hetfield shoots Leather Daddy to death. I'm guessing... vacation clone?

Four Hours Earlier? Really?

Also: Vacation Clones explode into ash like vampires when killed? Sure, whatever.

Oh... gawd. The hilarity.  This is a drink, I swear. I'm still doing my Covfefe, but whatever.  So GMGF is looking over the 'dead' Moe-Droid, and the 'totally not ghey' Serious Roleplayer sneaks up behind her and gives her a surprise hug and she Waif-fu's his ass. Mind you their last scene together was her getting ready to peg his bony boy butt. But the combination of Waif-Fu, awkward 'totes not ghey, you guys' and surprise hug just... well... I mean, Drink and all.  What are you going to do?  

Also: GMGF can totes pilot the ship to dock, because Cleavage!  

Well, I mean it makes sense that someone can fly the ship, but apparently Leather Daddy is only good for Pilot:Small Craft?  Because Moe-Droid was totally just a security measure that was activated for... reasons.  Damnit... now I'm trying to figure out why the hell Moe-droid was activated ( I mean, within the story. Clearly she was activated because, well, Moe. All of the Moe.  but, that's like, meta and shit.)

Hmm.. Covfefe and Scotch? Two great tastes that absolutely do NOT belong together!   The sacrifices I make for you guys.

Wait? They don't have Space Seat Belts?  Um... okay?

So... apparently the GMGF is a shit pilot, what with Serious Roleplayer lookign like she left the cattle prod... I mean Shock Stick... in his ass last night and EVERYONE on board stopping what they are doing to look around while she flies the ship into dock.

rockin' soundtrack for that Go-Girl moment, tho!

So. Loner-badass-ninja, that bastard Monk is peeved because mopy Gun Guy is stomping on his loner-badass routine.  Awwww....

So, Gun Guy is fucking Deep, and he and that bastard Monk have a manly man bro moment, mostly because even that bastard Monk can't drop maximally calculated Badass on Deep Gun Guy, so he's  got no choice but to RP the fuck out of the scene with him.  I ain't seen manly this deep since Bulvae stepped out of his death bed to face off the Dragon with the Line of His People Before Him, and that is fucking some deep manly shit.  I'm going to go out and chop some wood for a few hours now...

... with my bare hands.

Oh god, Serious Roleplayer is SUCH a bad actor, you cannot BELIEVE

Oh, goddamnit, Show. You had one perfect scene between Six and Five. One, and I don't even really think you earned it. Don't ruin it now by having Five crave a little Leather Daddy attention. Please?

wait... they made a joke about Anal?

No, seriously. Kanedans made a TV joke about Anal. Anal Gesic?  While eating Mealworms at a fancy restaraunt.  I... no, that is...  I mean.. Serious Roleplayer is in the scene?

No, no drink for Anal jokes.  Anal is serious business.

And Gun Guy is channelling Stallone from Demolition Man. Best Damn Mealworm Burger he's ever had, yo.  That... that deserves at least a sip. Any Demo Man reference, no matter how stretched and thin, is worth something.

So, remember when I complained about re-showing an entire scene in an episode? Who knew, but Kaneda was listening!  We're back to concrete hallways and Not-droids, but its reshot!  Good Job?!

and yes, Vacation Clone. Also a 30 whole minute policy of waiting between vacations? How... draconian!  

I.. gotta drink. So much stupid, but Funny Stupid.  Yes, they will let him break their thirty minute rule to avoid being a faceless cog in a machine!  Oh joy!

And The Kid is dropping way too much exposiiton on us about travel clones, but its worth it when she ends with 'because I read the brochure!'.   Maybe concrete hallways are not on a space station?  I mean... whatever.

hhmm... so Six/Leather Daddy isn't keeping his secrets from the Cru, thanks to The Kid hacking, and they are going to send 'someone' after him in a Vacation Clone pod.  That bastard Monk volunteers and... the GMGF volunteer's Serious Roleplayer to go along?

We, the audience, know that Serious Roleplayer is not the Real Jace Corso, and Vacation Clones use DNA, not image mapping so... we're going to see the 'real' One?  Place yer bets. Mine is... a drink. If a different actor plays Serious Roleplayer, I drink to that.

"are you a couple?"

To Serious Roleplayer and that bastard Monk.

Giggles!!!!

So Serious Roleplayer starts to pull the same line Leather Daddy pulled to break the 30 minute rule, and has it thrown back in his face by teh NPC, and that bastard Monk, still batting a thousand, simply offers a bribe to keep the adventure moving.  Drink!

And the GM is absolutely DONE with Serious Roleplayer's whiny bitching!!!! OMG!! the Vacation Clone lady just closes his pod while he keeps interrupting with bullshit!   Hee!

And, after an obvious tease... so obvious that I was sure they were yanking my chain... one is...


... another actor!

That is a muddafukken Drink!

Hopefully this guy is any good.

They made me wait until fourteen good god damn minutes until the end of the episode to bring back Moe-Droid, but when they did...


All.

The.

Moe.


SOOOOOOOooooooooo Much Moe.


Totally worth it.

That is all.

So, the General. Clearly they wanted Michael Ironsides, but I guess he's not Kanedan enough?  

I guess this is as good a place as any: the guy playing Leather Daddy?  His eyes are too wide man. Freaks me out.  Like... dancing elephants creeps me out.  And, you know? He doesn't really open his mouth when he talks. Lips? Sure, teeth? Not so much.  I mean, he's doing a good job acting up in here and all that, but...  yeah.  Just had to get that off my chest, I guess.

I especially hope that the new guy replaces the old guy for Serious Roleplayer, even though we've only had one scene with him.  I can't say he's any good, but he is better. Low bar and all that.

lolwut?!

The General was a Vacation Clone too?  This is getting silly!

Getting. Teee!!!

That's a drink for bad GMing!

As Leather Daddy says "Are you kidding me?"

At least the show seems to know how very bad it can be.

Ah, crap. We're back to teh Original. Still, its hilarious that GMGF, who is still wearing her neck bandage from Space Zombies, despite revealing herself completely wolverine healed two episodes ago, is accusing Serious Roleplayer of lying to everyone for concealing the truth.    

"And you, you knew. That's just as bad."

"Its not as bad. Besides, it was strictly for blackmail purposes."

HEE!!!!

You know? I would totally have praised this show if, after all her bullshit about having to work together, to trust one another, etc... if GMGF had peeled her bullshit bandage off her neck and revealed her unbroken, mutant healing factor, skin.  But she didn't, so... fuck you, show.

Wait?!!! Did Moe-Droid just call GMGF on her bullshit bandage? I think she just call the GMGF on her bullshit Bandage!  AND we have Serious Roleplayer using Space Google?!!  Well, shit, son. That's Drinking Time.

Also, Moe Droid is Best Droid.

Just, you know, for the record. In case you didn't know.


Also Star Wars 36, fully remastered and with VR. They say its a classic. Also, Kid? Leave the Moe to the Droid. Really, she's got this.


Wow, so this show packs most of the best stuff into the pre-credits minutes. We got that bastard Monk calling his brother, the new Emperor of Ishida, we find out Serious Roleplayer is Derrick Moss, who's wife was murdered by Gun Guy.... and as I mentioned, Moe-droid calling GMGF on her bullshit bandage, complete with enough Moe to carry me through an entire episode (though she did more earlier...).

And... Post!

So, before I get deep into teh weeds on Episode... um... nine?
 
We've got six people on board.

Three have nemesiseseses.

Kid has a bearded man she pick pocketed.

Leather Daddy has Teh General

that bastard Monk has the dowager Empress who set him up for patricide.

And of course, Gun Guy, who has his dying girlfriend who is now dead.

But we ALSO have not one, but TWO heirs to serious power here.

We have

That bastard Monk, who is the true heir to the Ishida throne.

and now we have Serious Roleplayer (the Better Guy), who is Derrick Moss, heir to a Mega-corp. Not Farris, sadly, because that would be just too god damn precious.

Other than that we still have everyone's basic backstory EXCEPT for GMGF, who is actively rejecting her backstory, because she's banging the GM and he wants to tell an Amnesia story?  Well, that doesn't really make sense, I guess, but whatever.

Dear god, we DO have Player Characters!!!!!

If ever I have a GM tell me that my character 'doesn't fit' his campaign... I'm going ot show him this show and double, no... TRIPLE... dog dare him.   I thought that... um... Defiance... was bad. This... this is pure Roleplaying Gold Standard bad. This is motherfucking pick-up Con-Game Bad.   This is GMGF giving hummers under the table shit-show bad! Corsets for everyone!!!!

Cleavage optional.

Okay. GMGF is still playing Traveller, and wants to crunch the numbers after they've left the station.  

Also: After... five episodes?... The Kid gets her goggles. I remember, motherfuckers. Can't sneak that shit past me!  I'm a motherfucking Pika of DOOOMMMM!!!! An' don't you forget it.


Sip for Goggles.  SIP YOU BASTARDS, SIP!!!!

Was there an STD joke in there?  I think there was an STD joke in there. Also, Gun Guy bought Wiskey even though it wasn't on the list. Stay Classic. No, I mean Classic, you tards.  That is classic Gun Guy RP right the fuck there.  Also, Juice Callback, but only one episode, but then they ham handed the motherfucking goggles, so...

Wait? Wut?

They... they LOST Four? you just... lost that bastard Monk? On a starship? In Space? On some rando planet with trees and shit that no one visited? Do you even space, brah?

Fucking Fish-man Hybrids.  Fucking can't write for shit!


So, Covfefe break. Totally gonna ruin my buzz, so I may call for extra drinks with sloppy reasoning.  But the good/bad news is I can still walk straight, so I'm not exactly straining my liver here.

anyway.  Badass Monk does badass stuff to space samurai, forgettable.

Then they lampshade how little he does on teh ship and... and this is drink worthy... The Kid mentions she hides in the vents sometimes just because!

Well, I said it was drink-worthy, so... We Drink! To Hiding In Vents!!!!!

Oh, shit. Gotta refill my glass. Hmm.. ok, I post, then fill, then drink, then back here in Five! Break!

Callback to Charlotte's Web?  OMFG!!! That's the 'classic' that Serious Roleplayer found in the hold back in Ep 1?  And he gave it to Gun Guy!!!!!?

Why do Space Samurai fight with western style fencing?

Oh.

Right.

Kanedans.

Lol!!!

The Kid just totally lampshaded that GMGF 'knows everything' because, well, Cleavage. And probably anal. I mean, if the GM is getting anything he's getting the dirty, because that's just how she rolls.  Hey. They started it.


And... Space Zombie bullshit bandage callout but STILL no reveal to teh Cru. (buy your own damn Umlauts! I'm fresh out!)

so... I suspect I'll like Sensei NPC-san, but now we get 'vaseline smeared lens' flashback to the same damn memory we already saw, only cut more to make it go faster. Sigh.

I do like the kid playing young Monk, so there is that.  And Imagine: A show where excuses are made for abusive asshole dad?!!!  What is the world coming to?


So. Leather Daddy and Serious Roleplayer talk about revenge. Man, they are giving ALL the deep shit to Leather Daddy, aren't they? I mean: Sure, he's the most normal and relatable character, and probably the most likeable after Moe-droid... though Gun Guy is probably the dude you'd want to hang out with most (again, after Moe-Droid...), but damn.  And mind you, we just learned Serious Roleplayer has inherited a revenge kick against Gun Guy, so that adds extra deep to this convo, despite SR being the single.weakest.link in the acting game of teh Cru.

oooohhhhh.... Gun Guy and Moe-droid are about to have a scene together? THis should be most excellent!  

In honor of expected Excellence, Post!

you know what I'm going to say.


I mean. You know. I'm going to drink and not say it.  

No, I'm not crying. I just have dry eyes is all, dust.  Yeah. Dust. I'm like. allergic and shit. Hay fever.

oh, how cute. Serious Roleplayer is trying to brood in his room while getting his amnesia vengence dead wife kick on with a ten pound dumbbell.

So hard.  I mean. SO very, very hard. I... I'm in awe of his manliness.

This? This is what you followed That with?  

Yeah. No drink, and no post.

That's right, you just imagined this post. It doesn't exist, just like Serious Roleplayer's heterosexuality.

Amnesia causes teh Ghey?

Just like a Serious Roleplayer, he is such a tryhard.

And... GMGF Is totally calling him on his bullshit, but, of course, he's convinced its his destiny (or Destiny, you know, in honor of the videya game) to kill Three now. For Revenge. Because, Try-Hard.


So, I do like Sensei NPC-San, though I think the actor is a bit, just a bit mind you, rubbish.

Now to Leather Daddy pumping iron, because OF COURSE!  Only. Three 35lb weights per side, on a light bar? Do you even lift, brah? because if you lift, why do I have to ask you if you lift?

Nah. I'm fun'nin. I'm sure those are 25's, and I know he probably had to do sets for an hour to get the shot right. Even in Kaneda.

ok. so maybe I'm drunk, but did they magically turn into 45's after teh jump-scare from The Kid? Also, in honor of Cinemasins: here, eat an apple Kid, it will make you look more like an asshole.

Ok, so once again The Utility Player proves to be the MVP, he damn near causes The Kid to break character again by making her so damn Pensive she breaks.  I mean, he looks goofy as hell working out (and seeing how big he is, that's gotta be teh director's fault...), but once again he motherfucking delivers teh goods in the acting department.  

He did, he DID break her. She's gunna cry?  Jeezuz, man. Don't stress her like that. She's not Moe-Droid, she's not built for all that Moe. No Nanites here (how DO they work? For the record, I had my first Faygo just last week...)

super discounted Peter Stormare?  THat's... god that's awful.  

I mean: how much does it cost to hire Stormare? Fuck, dude's got no standards whatsoever, right? He'll appear in anything, even car commericials.   Is it because he's not Kanedan? Thats... that's soooo raciss....

I mean... you could hire him for breakfast at Tim Hortons, you fucking assholes.  Sigh.

Sweet mother of GOD! Super-discounted Peter Stormare want... Sensei NPC-san's BOOTS? THat is... that is so RPG its not even funny.  There appears to be scotch in my glass, so I'm going to have to, against my better judgement, give that a drink!

Also, for good measure...


POST!

"Please, I have a wife... children."

"They can do better."


hheeee....


And... Gun Guy, so deep in all the best ways. No fake deep, no try hard deep. Just... you know, asshole and shallow seeming, but full of deep.    Fuck, we need another scene with him and Moe-droid, stat!

and Sensei NPC-San. Such a deep, complex character. Yes, yes. the actor is rubbish.  Hmm... if only. A scene with him, Moe-droid and Gun Guy? No. no. It wouldn't work. We need a good actor, not a great character.

Seriously? How hard is it to understand the word 'Surrounded'? Fucking Kanedans. Never mind the bullshit Try-hard SR planning to kill Gun Guy in the middle of a gun battle with Space Samurai, because we already know how that scene plays out. Surrounded, motherfuckers. Its a simple word in the english language. It means, and check me on this if you must, SURROUNDED.

Not: We're all right here facing you.

Surrounded. As in "around".

Sigh.


THe Everliving Fuck???

So. loner-ninja-badass, that bastard Monk is rescued by the Cru, who totally don't understand the english language, but whatever.  All the Space Samurai are killed except, OF COURSE, Sensei NPC-San.  He and that bastard Monk share a moment of manly bonding, after an entire episode of manly bonding... and then that bastard Monk totally sword murders him?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

Dafuq?

Fucket. That's a drink for stupid PC tricks and not respecting the agency of NPCs.

I'm... I'm done with this episode. Even Moe-droid can't save it now. I'll see you in the pre-ten recap.

So, recap from.. nine?

Six and Five kiss and make up while Five is in, what else, a vent. Four continues to be a loner-ninja-badass. I may forgive the loss of Sensei NPC-San if Emperor Brother-San keeps being brought up, maybe. I mean, I've already got Hobo-murderers on a quest for blood vengence for... um... shit, I don't remember, but I'm sure it was really, really bad writing.  we get more Fightan Practice, and then... boom, shit happens for cliffhanger, when three farris corp destroyers manage to ambush the Raza and kill the FTL drives, and Episode!

Oh. And we see Gun Guy wiping away manly tears of manliness while reading Charlotte's Web.  Deep, I tell ya.


And, Begin Episode whatever!:

So, Traveller. I mean, we learn that the Raza has, um, railguns and shit. (barbettes?), but no missiles because reasons, and the Farris corp guys launch a nuke. 20 megatons. The Shield will NOT hold.

So Moe-droid. lub.

Anyway: Plot resolution by Railroad. GM Fiat, whatever. Mee-Kay combine ships interfere with the Farris Corp plans, and the same Mee-Kay actress as Ep 2 shows up to drive this plot train forward, which... I guess is good, after a couple of backstory eps? Sure, that sounds good, yeah.

So, I like the actress playing the Mee-Kay rep. She reminds me of someone, but all I can think of is 'We are three hot girls... " or something like that.  Also, i should drink for loner-ninja-badass that bastard Monk threatening to cut out her tongue to prove he's hard core. That is totally PC of him.  Also:She's giving a quest, so this entire ambush was the GM's railroad in action.

And lastly: "Research station is about to make a discovery.' Fish-men strike again!!!!!

So, in sum total: Drink, motherfuckers, drink!

Ahhh... the good stuff.

oh... oh...

Ah, you know what I'm gunna say, but I'm gunna say it anyway.

So, the boys meet to discuss the job offer, and Gun Guy gives Serious Roleplayer the raspberry about his 'girlfriend'... and they cut to, of course, Leather Daddy.

Seriously. Are they reading my slash fic account? *

oh, and after Serious Roleplayer totally defends his honor about being his own man? The very next guy to get asked for his opinion? Leather Daddy.  No, really.

and... GMGF doing the weights thing, but really... they check her neck bandage, so... that's still a thing. Still. Zombie plague bites and all that jazz.  Getting... tired? Yeah, tired (or, alternatively, tiered? I mean, I have no idea what that would mean, but it seems like a good language based joke, so... make something up for it and have a good belly laugh at how clever I am, would ya?)

where was I? Oh, yeah... so, gonna skip Telenovela weak-sauce, and wait for somethign good.

soooo... gunna have to drink.  Lemmee 'esplain. No, that will take too long, lemmee sum up.

Cru shows up at rendezvous and bunch of rando mooks are waiting. Everyone draws guns, we get a 'that's not rhetorical' from lead mook and M-K rep shows up to parlay/introduce NPC mook 'partners' for job.

Soooooo much bad D&D flashback. Soo mcuh. Fuck it, you get misspelling, adn I get a drink. (typed Much four times and still got it wrong each time. Yay for booze?)

I doan wanna drink no mores!!!! Sigh.  Rulez, mang.

oh... noes!!! Red vs Blue Moe-Droid? Two moe-droids? No! No, I can't take it! TWO MUCH MOE!!!!

ok, so red Moe isn't really very moe at all, but damn, excuse for Blue-Moe all over the place.  

Er

I'll post now.

Yeah...






*Full disclosure, I have no idea what a slash-fic account would be. I just know that 'slash' is code for ghey shipping, m'kay? No, you don't get to know how I know what I know about knowing... that.

sooo...

the GM has clearly had enough Shenannigans, because the quest giver ALSO has done the planning for teh Cru.   Please, please, PLEASE (and even a Leeloo Dallas Plez for good measure) don't do a Shadowrun Mr. Johnson betrayal!!!  

AND... she tells Gun Guy no weapons? Because.. shooting the wrong control panel could blow the WHOLE STATION

Fucking Fish-men.  Feh.

And... they are seriously trying to Moe up The Kid? Not buying it. Besides, we have Two Moe-droids in this episode. Go back to hiding in vents, Kid... and looking Pensive.

"Actually, we prefer not to let our relationship be defined by artibrary catagories and outmoded social distinctions."

Well, mook girl. You, and for that matter Jack White, can suck my pika-cock.  I got scotch and you are from Kaneda. I win.

Wait? The Mook Boss is named Wexler?

TEEE!!!!!!

I'll..

Yes, yes I will

Drink.
To.
That.


And Serious Roleplayer is going to play let's you adn him fight between GMGF and NPC-Wexler? Sure... sure... how big is the modular anatomy she took from Ruby Rose anyway?




And... and they totally do, just out in teh hallway where he can't see. So, drink for Waif-fu? Sure, drink for Waif-fu.  Never mind that he's got something like 12 hours to heal from a broken arm for the job, because GMGF needs to show off her badass.

and... kicking Wexler's ass means.. The Kid is now on the mission?  And now the payoff for all that bullshit about her not being really part of teh cru?  Hmm... drinking now is a bad idea, but then again... drink!

"Of course! I'm just messing with you!"  lol, glad for drink, because that would be, well, drink.

is it wrong to like Wexler?  I mean... side from getting waif-fu'd, he's got my general attitude of faux humble and general braggadaccio...  I like Wexler, I said it.

Ghey fer Wxler? Mmm... not quite. Yes, I missed the 'e', suck it. I'd rather brag about drunk misspellings than fix 'em.  Too many S's., see?
