That’s actually what this particular trip is going to culminate in.

Mr. Zorilla’s showing a lot of restraint – personally, I would have at least tried to punch Nogg at some point.
MattStriker
Punching Nogg is kinda like spitting into the ocean.
Leinglo
Dimitri…I feel like I should be surprised…
…But I’m not. Well, maybe a little surprised that it took this long.

@Leinglo — hey, he’s been trying to set an example (a POSITIVE example) for his kid.

A game of bridges. (And one secret control room)
So! Is it too early to find our Daernys in all this? I guess winter is STILL coming, on the wrong track as usual.
Meran
It’s always winter on some planet somewhere, I bet. Lol

Hate to be a party pooper here. Seems rather anticlimactic. I’m with him, spill the rest of the details come spill big time Nogg! I must have it, instanter.

@Night-Gaunt49, how about:

Everything looks bad if you remember it. 😛

@Kaidah, kinda like the guy who joined the French Foreign Legion. He joined it to forget, and now he’s miserable because he can’t remember why he signed up.
@Kaidah, be VERY glad we all edit our memories. The worst ones are marked more solidly for fading first; the best are often triggered for retrieval by odd links; a scent, music, etc. Others are indelible, and worth keeping refreshed.
Who alive now who was alive (and old enough to pay attention) doesn’t remember where they were on 22 November 1963? (George H. W. Bush for one.)

And, recently, the news of Princess Diana’s death; and fir those of us who lived thru the Kennedy assassination, there was his brother’s and ML King’s.
There are far too many honestly.
I am always surprised at the sentiments of the modern generation of making “holidays” of these things that we ~couldn’t forget if we wanted to, the whole “lest we forget” ribbons and such.
Believe me, if we’re decent beings, we don’t forget; if we are not, a ribbon won’t remind us.

I was troubled by that exact image a few nights ago, couldn’t banish it from my head.. I just *knew* they’d be biologically compatible enough for Dmitri to give it a go.
So is he going to live to have more children that will be abducted by Nogg and die, or what?
