Sci-fi creatures unite!
Sci-fi creatures unite! My name is Thursday Silvertongue (thanks, TNO w/ an umlaut) and I'm a
Maq'can. Go read the character 911 thread on the Inkwell. I am a
generally awesome alien, and I can walk through walls and stuff like
that. And Emily H. is trying really hard to put me into a story that
keeps stinking. Oh, well. And if she's not careful, she's going to post on this thread with all her favorite Star Trek people. Like Worf and Data and Spock and the Borg Queen. (halfway kidding about that one) Come on, sci-fi creatures! Join me and we shall rule the galaxies!!!!!! (otherwise known as you do the dirty work, then I assasinate you using my flow-through-wall thingy, and I take over.)

Ooooooohhhhhh!!!! I am so impressed (not). You think I'm afraid of a 29-year-old who looks like a frog who ran into an erupting volcano? Well, I'm not. And it would appear that we are in different galaxies, because the center of the Milky Way (stupid name - humans really messed that up) has no defenses, Grox or not, and has been open to exploration for seven hundred years. Perhaps you are in a time warp. And, by the way, for all you know, I could be the red pirate had that you're wearing. And my goal is not cuteness, nor peace, nor cheesy pirate hats. My goal is to control the galaxy, and if you stand in my way, you will be eliminated. I will meld into you and can control your action (beat that) or could meld with your ship and bend it around you until you were crushed by the object of your pride. Do not get too cocky, Captain (sneer in that word) Xentano, or I will seek you out and destroy you.

P.S. The Melder was controlling me and making me write that, but believe me, it's not my opinion of you, whoever you are.

((Hi Emily! This is fun, no? ~TNÖ))
[bows head] My race is not much for cockiness, Melder. With the exception of the Grox- a violent, unstable, and sprawling race- we prefer to make peace, not war. However we are not incapable- we have technologies beyond your imagining, despite your power. And no, we do not hale from this... Milky Way you speak of. Our galaxy is WW-314, and larger than your galaxy, the Whirlpool.
Do not underestimate the cuteness factor. The Grox, after all, were unspeakably cute- as well as feared by the entire WW-314 galaxy.
Furthermore, Melder, our respective ages, in proportion to our respective races, is essentially the same.

((I'll say. Very fun. And yes, it is kind of cute.... Silvertoungue just doesn't think so. She's not much impressed by cuteness, you know. And (a)you stole b) I stole from you or c) we both just came up with on our own) my habit of saying something and adding no - "This is fun, no?" in your post above. Much cooler that way, no? :D))
Galaxy WW-314.... it is some 200,000 star-leaps away, is it not? The one that looks like a pink, fuzzy smiley face through our wave-distortion viewers? It is obvious that your people hang far too much on this, this cuteness you speak of. Among the Maq'can, cuteness is considered fine, but I consider it a birth defect. What the young Earthlings would call coolness is a much bigger factor for me. And if your technology is so advanced, why do you employ primitive devices like gold bangles and red pirate hats? A bit demeaning to your own culture, no? But I see I am growing cocky myself. My (effort here.....) apologies. May we meet again! Perhaps I will meld with this ship and take it to go seek you out....

It most certainly is not the smiley face galaxy. Check your coordinates. WW-314 is a basic, two-arm spiral galaxy, the center of which is home to an enormous wormhole, and formerly the Grox empire.
These bangles? They aren't primitive at all. They are hard drives, linked to the Mothership and vital to communication and mobility throughout the Webett race. That they look purely ornamental is coincidence, nothing more... Or possibly due to our race's attraction to shiny things. On a smaller scale, they control artificial gravity in our ships and stations, monitor cargo bays, stocks, funding, allies, war negotiations, and planet terra levels.
I will admit, the pirate hat is purely ornamental. However, the red pirate hat is the renowned symbol of the mighty Webett empire the galaxy over. It is no insult to our race.
It would be a... pleasure... to meet you, Melder.
((Gar, I know, and it's absolutely impossible to make uncute organisms in SPORE. I mean, even the ANTAGONISTS were unspeakably cute.))
(June 4, 2009 - 5:54 pm)
Impressive, for bangles. I think I will take your idea and design my own version of it. Except I won't make them look like jewelry. Maybe a mechanical overlay that looks like a tattoo.... You have given me much to ponder, Webett Captain. I wish you success on your ventures.

((And I just checked SPORE out - yes, everything I saw looks cute. And I like your little dude immensely. :D))

The same to you, Melder.
((And it's so much /fun/ when you get to Space stage (which takes like three hours). I mean, Grox plotline aside, it's unbelievably complex.))
