Big Sal Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Location: E01 Tags: None Chief Accountant Long's Office, M.A.N.T.I.S. Supply Ship, Crentium Orbit. ...and so we finally figured out where all Octan's extra money was coming from. They have a new line of diet products that's proving wildly successful back in the Milky Way. We don't know how it works, but apparently you can eat as much as you want without ever gaining any weight. Our spies have traced the supply chain back to Donwarr. Whatever's in these products, it comes from there. Ah, ok, so you want me to analyse some biomass samples and figure out how it works so we can copy the product? Eventually, yes. But first you need to go and get the biomass samples. What?? I'm CEO, I don't have time to go fruit picking! I'm the head of this company, Long, you can't just- No, you're not. -order me around. Wait, what? That's the other thing I needed to see you about. OctanSoft finally patched the bugs in the Personnel Promotion Matrix. You're no longer CEO. But... I've been so good at it recently! Yes, your recent 100% increase in efficiency didn't go unnoticed. I don't know how you did it, but it doesn't matter. We have a new CEO. Who? Don't tell me it's this clown?? Aloha! No, SpacerSteve's the new CEO. I... oh. Then who the hell is this?? This is Pombie, one of our best special operatives. She'll be accompanying you on your mission. One of our... best? Is this a joke, Long? Have you ever known me to make a joke? Your ship leaves in half an hour. But- ------------------- Later, on Donwarr: ... total misunderstanding, could've happened to anyone. Chief Accountant Long wasn't very happy about it though. I guess that's why she's sent me on this babysitting mission without my team. Yeah, she can be a real pain. And, uh, did she make you wear that ridiculous outfit as punishment or something? What? No, this is standard issue Octan employee dress. Given Octan's control of the planet, I thought it prudent to be able to impersonate them if necessary. I, uh, guess that makes sense... but, um, are you sure you've got it right? Absolutely. I wore this for my last mission infiltrating the O.C.S. Axle and it worked perfectly. The mission that completely failed and led to you being sent to pick fruit? My orders were ambiguous. The disguise worked fine. Right... I've finished picking all the biomass over here, want a hand over there? That was fast, how did you... What the hell have you been doing? Picking biomass like we were supposed to. What have you been doing? -------- Thanks for reading, and big thanks to pombe for letting me use one of his awesome characters! C&C welcome! Where did you even get all those pickaxes from?? You weren't carrying anything when we got off the ship! Quote
mediumsnowman Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Haha, another great build and story! Somehow I knew Pombie would be back somehow! NPU on the dragon tails as tree trunks. Quote
Vedauwoo Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Awesome build.....and I've just learned Pombie is a girl.....guess the sideburns and "soul-patch" threw me off....lol....and I usually notice boobs first...roflmao! Quote
deraven Posted October 25, 2015 Posted October 25, 2015 Painful pun, but delightful nonetheless! Beautiful builds, too- I really like Long's office! Simple, but it looks great. Quote
pombe Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 My sister was an obvious pick for this pickle of an assignment. When we were children, we were handpicked to pick fruits since we were the fastest at fruit picking. We would race to see who could fill the pickup trucks the fastest. She always won, but it was close every time, but now I'm nitpicking. Quote
Kodan Black Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 I love the crossover! Long's office is nice, I like the ring used to make curtains. Great humor as usual! Quote
SpacerSteve Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Smaug makes great tree trunks. Your terrain is excellent. Funny story. Quote
rodiziorobs Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Impressive terrain here, and of course a very entertaining story Quote
David FNJ Posted October 27, 2015 Posted October 27, 2015 Super cool alien landscape! I like the dark red tree trunks! Quote
