Is this thing on?

I realized this morning that I have several new friends *waves at them* who weren't around when I posted this snippet. Which I have now edited (not at that link, alas, since I can't edit comments) into something even more horrifying, because Antubis is being recalcitrant and I have no idea how to make a CAT scan anything but boring boring boring. Le sigh.

Anyway. That snippet gives the one I posted last night some actual context. Janni telling Ben "try not to die" is just that much more blackly funny when you realize that, you know, he already did.

Why, yes, I've been accused of having an odd sense of humor. Why do you ask?

Man...is it tomorrow yet in the story? Is it time for me to smack him over the head again?

Also, this right here? COOLEST THING I'VE EVER SEEN. Steampunk Victorian all-in-one computer. Seriously.

*grins* Thank you! I really do love these characters beyond all reason. I nearly left Ben dead, but then I realized that the whole story is All About Him (although it wasn't supposed to be), so killing him midway through would be Bad Writing. And now I have to decide if he's going to survive the final confrontation or not, although killing him again seems like, I don't know, piling on, you know?

Of course, considering what he's been through already, "piling on" is a relative term.

People in the steampunk community make the coolest stuff, I swear.

I've joined a couple of the steampunk communities. I love some of their stuff, but those computers are the best!
