caldrail Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Yes... Marcus Larconius Ralla too has been given notice of his posting to some godforsaken farflung frontier. Think I'll need some thermals if the stories of Brittanicish weather are true... They say there are monsters in that land too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docoflove1974 Posted June 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 Whoa...GO...which woodworks did you just emerge from? And not even AC and the Augusta try to take over so much 'round these parts! Um...hmmm....methinks GO needs more wine...he seems just a wee bit cranky.

Augustus Caesar Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 A wee bit cranky? That man needs to watch his p's and q's me thinks!! AC an imposter? Is he really awake or just lumbering around like all centurions sleep walking? Hey Doc... give him a VERY large wine... it may just bring him to his senses!! Or the Tarpeian Rock will.... one bump on the head from that and he will be OK - unless he misses the rock and hits water first... and he can't swim!!!

Gaius Octavius Posted June 5, 2007 Report Share Posted June 5, 2007 (edited) Pantagathus = wise guy - in Linear B. He knows that I know not of what he babbles. He doesn't know that his Cordax is a transvestite. Returns to party looking for MPC to have an argument about hepatoscopy. C. makes with monster faces and scares off the maidens. A/C tries to get a note beyond the cohort cordon to alert his loved ones of the upcoming terminatory service in which he WILL be the Guest of Horror. Her PhDship hands GO a bag of aged Two Buck Chuck, lately imported from Kali4kneeya. GO searches for La Donna Sophia. The Lady of the Tomes searches for GO. AoS and Ginevra are fumbling around practicing some arcane eclectic art. Pertinax is now practicing trepany on RtG. Some barbarian called Viggen, passes the cordon and delivers a note to the besotted P.P. Buck Rogers lands his UFO on the villa's roof. And then...

docoflove1974 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Her PhDship hands GO a bag of aged Two Buck Chuck, lately imported from Kali4kneeya. *Gasp* The insinuation! How pathetic and horrific! Two Buck Chuck is an outstanding wine for cooking if one is not planning on drinking anything (use what you need, then toss the rest...it really only did cost $2.99) Doc claps her hands and motions to her wine steward. From the depths of the bodega comes the best Sangiovese possible for GO (and hopefully this will calm him!). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantagathus Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 He doesn't know that his Cordax is a transvestite. Pantagathus retrieves a tincture of *something* from Pertinax and slips it in GO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augustus Caesar Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 AC makes his way to stand behind GO ready to let him fall into his 'safe' hands when he partakes of his drink. Of course AC has a habit of missing some catches!!! Someone - namely GO - is going to have a rather nasty headache!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Octavius Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 The god-Consul is astounded, astonished, and, need he say, appalled by the depravity taking place before his Sacred Person. He learns the reason for this licentiousness! The Evil Klatch, composed of The Lady Livia, Her PhDship, and The Lady of the Tomes, have been spicing the booze with Love Potion #9, i.e., Viagrarum! It is not the weeds of the trepaniac Pertinax which are the cause! GO imposes an edict on the respected and suspected Dr. Dalby to preach abstinence and soteriology to this unholy cacophonous and uninhibited mob of satyrs and nymphs. In their turn, with malice aforethought, and mayhem intended, the gang assault and lay hands upon the Consul's deputized minister! This may not stand! The caitiff, A/C, presumes that the present state of affairs is a perfect opportunity for him to secrete himself into some Plutonian nook and thus escape the Ultimate Penalty for his imposture. If he has any Luck at all, it is all bad. (Something like that of the Yankees.) Of a sudden, invaginated in a vaporous, sulphocyanic pestilential amorphous cloud and bearing a countenance that would put the fear of Iupiter into Dis, the long absent and unlamented Tyrant, Germanicus, puts in an unwelcome appearance accompanied by the smirking L_W. This, perforce, is an Evil Omen! Where have they been? What have they been up (down?) to? Has L_W been tantalizing G. by exposing her tattoos? Have they been at the Viagrarum? - Neat? GO auto-determines to snuff out this lewd, uninhibited, orgiastic melee and to terminatorilly punish the guilty. He appoints Mal(icious)adict his Grand Inquisitor with power to convoke an Inquisition and to administer the Auto de Fe generously and not to miss A/C. [P.S. & N.B. - My Lady Claudia informs me that I am the most hypocritical and wettest blanket in the Forum; and would rain on HM Q.E. II's parade.] And then...

Primus Pilus Posted June 6, 2007 Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Primus Pilus wakes from his inebriated slumber, regurgitates and slurs rather loudly... "what's with all the shouting" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docoflove1974 Posted June 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2007 Primus Pilus wakes from his inebriated slumber, regurgitates and slurs rather loudly..."what's with all the shouting" BRILLIANT!!! GO...one needs to not be so spaztastic (yes, that's a word...in my head). Besides, Viagrarum is not in existence (Pertinax?), so it must be something else that's making you feel like you need some, um, attention. I bet Nephele can find you a suitable companion!

Augustus Caesar Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 What's all that about then GO?!?!? Doc... is this a party or what? I need a stiff drink.... water to be on the safe side!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docoflove1974 Posted June 7, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 (edited) What's all that about then GO?!?!? Doc... is this a party or what? I need a stiff drink.... water to be on the safe side!! Doc quickly goes into bartender mode (which is quite a comfortable one, btw), and concocts a quirky mixture of fermented rye juice and a touch of citrus (whatever's around), and hands it to AC. With a water back, naturally. Edited June 7, 2007 by docoflove1974 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaius Octavius Posted June 7, 2007 Report Share Posted June 7, 2007 Then A/C picks up his drink, looks at the muck and screams: "DoC, you blind turkey, you squoze a Love Apple into this cocktail! Look at your bloody hands!" And then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caldrail Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Marcus Larconius Ralla boards the UFO and has sex with a pretty green woman. Didn't think much of all that prodding though. Might hire them as musicians for my own party. They actually said they want to study us and so they should. Barbarians, even these little grey ones, should definitely learn from their roman betters. Whats that Manlius? Three men in dark blue uniforms to see me? What do they want? Whats a 'weather balloon'? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pantagathus Posted June 8, 2007 Report Share Posted June 8, 2007 Pantagathus bribes some of GO's brigands with some exceptional garum and leaves the party... The Centurion tried to make him halt until one of the Cordax dancers moved in to divert his attention. Pantagathus is now truely GONE, down the Via Ostiense and to his awaiting ship in Ostia...
