Argghhh-onauts: Thirteenth Story

Well, okay, *technically* it's just the thirteenth arc in the story line -- but how many of you would have opened a post titled "Arc Number The Thirteenth, In Which Our Intrepid (And Lovable-But-Bumbling) Hero Will Possibly Get Killed, But Probably Not"...?

See? That title just isn't a *grabber*.

As you've probably figured out by now, I have been playing around with veiled references to BCR's webcomic faves. Today, the gloves are off and the references get *blatant*! Ha-HAAAAAAAAA!

If you're *really* lost, well, hang in there.

It'll get worse...

OK Bill, who is going to spank you over that one?  The world awaits with bated breath!
 
 
That reminds me of something from BCR's bookshelf, when she hosted the Post Shoot Castle Argghhh Blogger Bonfire and Barbecue...
 
Bated breath reminds you of a computer game?
 
Wow.  SOMEBODY really likes living dangerously...  :D
 

Marabou lining?  Quick, give her green M&Ms!

 
Gee, you *know* it.

If you're not careful, you could poke your eye out with one o' those death rays...
 
Aaaand, the winner of the "Most Likely to be Stuck in a Glass Jar Outside Castle Heterodyne" contest is ... BillT!  A quiet word to Phil and Kaja Foglio, and a certain moustached, bezippered individual will be penciled in to the next installment of Girl Genius undergoing a painful and embarassing fate. 

(carbon nanotubes are pretty cool, though)
 
And after UnkaBill's Hammer-Fall,
All the king's horses and all the king's men
couldn't put the Green M&M's Together Again.
 
Heh, BCR *would* be a GG fan- tho the story seems to have  bogged down of late...
 
(carbon nanotubes are pretty cool, though)

Yeah, if I'd made the thong out of carbon nanotubes, you probably wouldn't have been so uncomfortable inside that...

...ohhhhhhhhhhh.

A carbon nanotube *thong*...

 
I have to note that Bill caught the out-thrust lower lip pout *exactly*!
 
I have an eye for detail.

Such as marabou feathers...
 
Stuffed into a glass jar outside Castle Heterodyne is nothing to having been swallowed and partially digiested by the Moat Monster.  I owe my virtual life (at least in this bit of interactive fiction) to the good offices of BCR Labs. I'm on Snarkatron's side on this one, Bill.  I categorically deny that my effusively expressed gratitude for what that smart, erudite, good-lookin', cool-headed, and otherwise totally wonderful woman did for me was in any way enhanced by any work she did on what was left of my brain.

Besides, Bill, yer a Jaegermonster: You've never been seen without a silly hat!
 
Ha! I wrote "digiested"!  (That's like, "digitally digested").

Didn't do it on purpose, it was a case of "Fingerspitzengefail", AKA sloppy typing.

P.s.  I've gotten my blog working again.  Please comment. It's right lonesome here in the bad part of FL.
