Realm of the InterNutter

Thoughts, stories and ideas.

Iron Chef: X-Mansion!

(#00149)

Sara really should not have sung. That had been the ultimate bone of contention. Especially since it was _Anything You Can Do, I Can Do Better_.

Amara would not back down. Neither would Sara.

So now the danger room had been set up as two identical kitchens, and a black neutral zone between them. Randomizers were set to pick random ingredients from anywhere in the world, and raise them up into the neutral zone for the competitors to use.

The dias rose. The containment fell away to reveal…

Thousands of live crickets. They spilled like water from the device and spread like a cloud into the danger room.

Sara, all calm and logic, said, “You forgot to program in the tank, Doctor McCoy…”

Amara shrieked and fled for the ceiling.

And that was how Sara won a cooking contest without having to cook.

Zantabraxus meets Ottilia.

(#00148)

The Queen of Skifander was never weak. Though she rode a palanquin, it was a tactic. Four sets of feet were faster than one on their own. Her bearers were gaining on the interlopers. Zantabraxus coiled on her throne like a cat readying itself to pounce. Soon, they would be in range…

“HALT!”

“What?” said the usurper. “How the heck did she get here?”

She was a giant of a clank made of silver and gold. Her wings were in sad

Geeky Mutants + Danger Room = Holodeck-style shenanigans.

(#00147)

Logan stared at the view from the observation port. The brats were battling on twin dirigibles. One team with blue bandannas, the other with red. There were swords, steampunk machines, flying apes, strange beasts and… orchestral music?

Elf was enjoying every last minute of it.

“Have at thee, foul miscreants,” he cried, swinging all over the place like a monkey on a bender. “However many you may be, you can not match the heart of a true musketeer.”

Tallwater was singing

When Historical Dramas Fail History...

I can forgive AU’s. I have a great love for them. I can understand a writer willing to explore an alternate time stream.

But when they pretend they’re set in our history… nails down the chalkboard.

You can NOT show the Mona Lisa in-progress on a freaking canvas. She was painted on an oak board.

[You should also not make Jesus white, but that’s a whole different can of worms…]

Similarly, having era- or

Giant, fluorescent pink slugs found on mountain

Giant, fluorescent pink slugs found on mountain

amongthegentlymad:

It would seem to be something you'd see only in a cartoon or at a Phish concert, but according to park rangers in New South Wales, Australia, dozens of giant, fluorescent pink slugs have been popping up on a mountaintop there. "As bright pink as you can imagine, that's how pink they are," Michael Murphy, [...]

I'm putting this up for my GG fanpeeps because clearly there's a Spark at work in Australia somewhere...

Zantabraxus and Gil - making up for lost time.

(#00146)

Zeetha stared out the porthole. Unbidden tears fell down her face.

“Are you hurt?” Agatha managed. It had been a rough landing of a pod never meant to fly. Zeetha was lucky she was upright. Agatha and Gil were still turned about and tangled in their impromptu rewiring.

“I’m… home…”

Agatha got herself untangled with a loud thud, peered out the porthole. The jeweled towers of Skifander shone in the dawn light. A glistening cohort of Skifandran soldiers were approaching

When good Science Fiction contains Bad Science

I can’t be the only person annoyed by this. Science fiction is supposed to contain science. Especially the kind of science even a layperson can recognize.

If a layperson can correct your mishandled physics, bad math, chemistry failures and so on… it irritates me no end.

Especially when writers use said bad science as a major plot point.

It’s like hanging a chandelier with chewing gum. The foundation is flawed and the whole thing collapses.

And some

Challenge #00145: Mein Kinder

Girl Genius, Klaus + baby!Gil. Klaus’s thoughts on watching Gil grow.

The magnetite compas was working. As was the nourishment formula the infant boy was suckling on.

His son.

Gilgamesh.

He would have to do something about the fine green fuzz of hair that marked him as Skifandran. But right now, in a hot-air flying engine cobbled together out of whatever he had to hand… it was not important.

He could not take his sister. At least, he could
