#763: “Birthday present long delayed”

*** Now talking in #suburbansenshi
Topic is -= Yes but can you find the entry where the cat was REALLY let out of the bag? It's not the one you think! =-

[08:56] <@Dr_Xadium> I had the weirdest dream last night
[08:56] <C'est_la_V> Was I in it, X-chan ^_^ ♡
[08:56] <@Dr_Xadium> No...
[08:56] <C'est_la_V> :<
[08:57] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yo Yo YO Hold up
[08:57] <@Dr_Xadium> ?
[08:57] * --=[ SpeedRcrX ]=-- points to Neko and X
[08:57] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> You two are such liars
[08:57] <@Dr_Xadium> Huh?
[08:57] <C'est_la_V> Nani?
[08:58] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Well since you've been digging up all our old logs for the upcoming world guide, I been reading some too... and rei.bot showed me an interesting little passage
[08:58] * C'est_la_V looks to X-chan
[08:58] * @Dr_Xadium shrugs
[08:59] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> This was back when we had corner pictures up at the top of the blog, and you made one for Neko whose neckline was a bit too low
[09:00] <@Dr_Xadium> Agh... I remember that now, yes, in retrospect it *was* too low, but I was too close to the work.
[09:00] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Or the model *cough*
[09:00] <@Dr_Xadium> Eh.
[09:01] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> *** Topic is '-= This is why we can't have nice things =-'
[09:01] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> *** [ Dr_Xadium ] changes topic to '-= Wow, I guess I CAN get tetchy after all, and petty and spiteful, too! =-'
[09:01] <C'est_la_V> Whoa, your old Handle, X-chan
[09:01] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <♥ Cest la Vie ♥> Aren't you going to wish me happy birthday???
[09:02] <@Dr_Xadium> And yours, heh.
[09:02] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <♥ Cest la Vie ♥> Aren't you going to wish me happy birthday???
[09:02] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Whoops
[09:02] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <[ Dr_Xadium ]> Here.
[09:03] * FireFly_9 looks on curiously.
[09:03] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <[ Dr_Xadium ]> Enjoy this fine Polyester-cotton blend "Team Suburban Senshi" T-Shirt... it is good quality.
[09:03] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <♥ Cest la Vie ♥> ...domo...
[09:03] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> * ♥ Cest la Vie ♥ expected more from her biggest fan
[09:04] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <[ Dr_Xadium ]> I had something nicer in mind but Everyone took it the wrong way.
[09:04] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <[ Dr_Xadium ]> READING INTO THINGS STUFF THAT WASN'T THERE, ECCHI LITTLE--
[09:04] <@Dr_Xadium> Now, wait just a minute!
[09:04] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> <♥ Cest la Vie ♥> What did this crappy thing Cost you, like 500...
[09:04] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> *** [ Dr_Xadium ] has kicked ♥ Cest la Vie ♥ from #suburbansenshi (REASON: YOU ARE NOT IMMUNE!)
[09:05] <C'est_la_V> What's your point, Haruka-san?
[09:06] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> One more piece of evidence, Neko. According to the fic that details how you two first met, you met WAAY back in Feb. of '01.
[09:06] <C'est_la_V> That anniversary is coming up soon ^_^
[09:06] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> And got together not long after.
[09:06] <@Dr_Xadium> Not that it's any of your concern.
[09:07] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> SO THERE WAS STUFF THERE TO BE READ INTO! "Biggest Fan" my ass!
[09:07] <@Dr_Xadium> That had to do with people claiming I had drawn certain.. details... into the picture which I had not! They were simply seeing patterns in fabric folds!
[09:08] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yeah but you were DECEIVING ALL OF US!
[09:08] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> So when Jedite claimed you took Ask the Suburban Senshi away from him because of undue influence, it WAS TRUUUUUUE
[09:08] <@Dr_Xadium> ...erm... well...
[09:09] <FireFly_9> The game seems to be up, Xadium-san.
[09:10] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> And you never released that picture to the masses out of SPIIIITE
[09:10] <@Dr_Xadium> Meh.
[09:10] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> So don;t you owe them something? An apology, perhaps?
[09:10] <@Dr_Xadium> I didn't add in what they said I did, I owe zem notink!
[09:11] <FireFly_9> Well now that the cat is out of the bag... perhaps it wouldn't matter.
[09:12] <@Dr_Xadium> Look, I want to tell you all about this wierd dream I had. It involved a Sailormoon 6th season being aired on the american cable channel tbs of all places.
[09:13] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> I don't want to be distracted by your feeble attempts at misdirection!
[09:14] <@Dr_Xadium> I was watching some movie in a free preview, and then there was a commercial, and all of a sudden the Sailor Starlights were there, but the art style was like a cleaner, crispier, anime shaded Batman the Animated Series style... same drab palette and everything. And the title was, in white letters on a solid black screen, "STARLIGHTS" and then there was an ad for some mecha show.
[09:15] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> I will NOT BE DISTRACTED BY YOUR f[BLEEP]kED UP NIGHT HALLUCINATIONS, X
[09:15] <FireFly_9> ...That's... disturbing.
[09:16] <@Dr_Xadium> And then I remember rushing to ask why the [THE HAPPY PLACE] main page hadn't been updated with this breaking news, and pointing out that now there would be no continiity problems because it would be a 6th season without the senshi, and there would be no dub problems because it would be American from the get-go.
[09:17] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Except for the small fact your leads would be played by leather-fetish dominatrix-style hermaphrodites.
[09:17] <@Dr_Xadium> That, actually... never came up.
[09:17] * --=[ SpeedRcrX ]=-- gives Seiya the middle finger, wherever the f[BLEEP]k it is
[09:18] * @Dr_Xadium has no love for Yaten either, after he... she... roughed up Minako.
[09:18] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> So where's that pic, X
[09:18] <@Dr_Xadium> Eh? I archived that to CD ages ago. Face it, it's lost to time.
[09:28] * --=[ SpeedRcrX ]=-- produces a scandalous no backup copy
[09:28] <@Dr_Xadium> ><
[09:29] <@Dr_Xadium> Give me that!
[09:29] * @Dr_Xadium goes over to Photoshop and tries to fix the neckline a bit
[09:33] <@Dr_Xadium> All right, there. Your birthday present from 2003, Minako. Just a year and few months overdue :)
[09:33] <C'est_la_V> Ooh ♡
[09:33] <C'est_la_V> *kisses X-chan*
[09:33] * @Dr_Xadium blushes
[09:34] <@Dr_Xadium> Well, you see... the reason the neckline was messed up to begin with was that the original was posed from this picture
[09:34] <@Dr_Xadium> --> https://home.swipnet.se/hammerex/october/sarah_michelle_gellar02.jpg
[09:35] <FireFly_9> Couldn;t you have just said that all those years ago?
[09:35] <@Dr_Xadium> Well yes, I suppose...
[09:36] * @Dr_Xadium starts for a moment. The phrase "All those years ago" in the context of this pace brings a tear to his eye.
[09:36] <@Dr_Xadium> I didn't think it would last the month.
[09:36] <--=[ SpeedRcrX ]=--> Yeah, we're an institution all right
[09:38] * .`~SugaBB_2999~`. ** iz loking 4 a god men 2 spand da nit wit, msg .'~SugaBB_2999~'. 4 detailz n u batar b saxy
[09:38] <FireFly_9> Yes.... a *mental* institution.
