QotD

“After all … when someone says ‘Things you might find in a hospital bathroom’ … is your first thought

  1. Weapons and/or ammunition?
  2. Gold and/or jewelry?
  3. Food?
  4. A nasty rash?”

— Me, discussing with a friend how some gaming tropes really need to be dispensed with at long last because, frankly, I don’t see why I should be obliged to search hospital bathrooms on the offchance I might find one or more of the first three items above; it is (or should be) a waste of time.

I think Aura should write a story exploring the absurdity of the concept,

Or Stephen could write something involving spies and/or criminals (in Prague¹) — and/or maybe a dilettante American expat in Paris² who stumbles into a situation.


¹ Where else would a story involving spies take place? Duh!

² Where else would an American expat live in Europe? Duh!³

³ Except Prague? Duh!

⁴ Okay … maybe Berlin,

⁵ Although I seem to recall Stephen mentioned living in Algiers — I could be wrong about that though.

Where Angels Fear

There he goes. One of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live and too rare to die.
