      We’re in January at the moment, so a little while til it rolls around again!

    Something tells me that Lei’s not so unwilling a participant in this affair…

    I’ll keep my mussings to myself, though- it’s more fun waiting to see if I’ve surmised right. :-D

    It’s a good thing Sid had almost finished his tea, the way he’s waving that mug around.

  • Who, me?

    Of course, gunpowder. Because giant bugs with razor-sharp pincers weren’t dangerous enough, we have to add explosives to the mix! (Not complaining, mind you; a healthy helping of BLAM! makes everything more exciting. Just noting a fact.)

      I am all for more explosions.

        “The quantity of high explosive required varies directly as the square of the size of the social problem.”

    Hands up anybody who DIDN’T think Sid’s magical kleptomania was going to come into play about here.

    Anybody with your hand up – how does it feel to be slow?

    Does this make Sid a cute purse cutpurse?

  • fairportfan

    It just hit me – adventures involving gnus and poodles wouldn’t be all that inconceivable considering Harry’s embarrassment in the early part of this story.

    Step 1: Fill motile magic bugs with explosives
    Step 2: Order them to track a target/s of choice and blow up

    It is the perfect smart bomb, an ultimate in stealthy assassination weapons

      Yeah, nothing says “stealthy” like a giant mechanical bug.

    Sounds like Vee’s and my handwriting are very similar.
