Hiveswap ‘17-10-08 : I’m all about that base-ment

The time has come to descend once more! I wonder if there's going to be a cutscene? In any case, we can expect our first monster fight to occur real soon!

--- If we do have a strife, I think the controls might be more icons than word-commands like how it was in Homestuck, but we'll see! I wonder, maybe the strife attacks are made through combining the flashlight with stuff - basic attack, tap dance attack, ballerina attack... --- Wow, that piano key drop as we enter the basement! The music here does NOT feel like just a remix of the House music. This really sets the tune for a dreadful exploration of the dark nethers of the mansion. Heheh, Joey's flashlight automatically is on. Guess we don't get a say in where it is illuminated and where not. Okay, so here we have some more of the stuff we saw in concept art. Hula girls wearing explorer hats, the typheus minion (maybe Grandpa killed more than one, maybe he's going to unearth this thing from the junk pile at some later date and bring it to Hellmurder Ilsland....) Goofy narwal head, more blue ladies... And the washing machine, dirty laundry and all. Or maybe it's the pile of unclaimed items, solo socks and all that. Locating the washing machine in the basement always struck me as typically American, but I could be wrong. I just think it's way more convenient to have to do one less set of stairs every time you bring dirty clothes to or take washed clothes from it. There's also the kettle for the central heating. Eesh, does that mean Joey and Jude have to bring wood down every so often from the garden? No sight of where the tube highway comes out of the wall down here. WASHING MACHINE : Pffff, 'you call it a "washing machine"'. Sarcasm, of course, but now I wonder what Dammek, being a lowblood, would call it? "Clothing regurgigator", probably, or something equally squicky. MIX + W.M. : Heheheheh, can't blame us for trying, though, narration, can you? ... In the middle of making combinations, my eye is caught on the knight armor wearing boxer shorts. I just... will be ignoring that, thanks. SHOES + W.M. : Touché: though the machine does make rhytmic noise (from time to time), the power is still out so Joey wouldn't be able to demonstrate, at the moment. POINTES + W.M. : They don't have a dryer! Welp, all their clothes are probably hung out on a line to dry, so at this point, they're probably been ruined by the monsters outside. BATTERIES + DIRTY LAUNDRY : Imagine if Joey would wield some dirty socks containing rocks against the monsters though. But this isn't that kind of game. She's not here to maim them, she just wants to pacify them... By bludgeoning their skulls with a heavy-duty flashlight. :P POGS + DIRTY LAUNDRY : Welp, this command results in Joey: Mental Breakdown, apparently. But she has a point: they're Home Alone, and now monsters are wreaking havoc. She shouldn't be the one acting adult in this situation. GREEN KEY + DIRTY LAUNDRY : ... Well, that actually spurred an action from Joey! Polishing her key, namely. SHOES + DIRTY LAUNDRY : Joey says there's a heap of boxes on the far wall MADE to be tap-tumbled on. Is that a reference? Will we use it for cushioning in our fight against the monster? Ah. So we CAN acknowledge the knight in shining armor (and boxers). Well... woo hoo? POGS + ARMOR : Oh, wait! This had come in one of the trailer before, I remember it. ... Yeah, that sure is a sad, upsetting sound the pog makes there. GREEN KEY + ARMOR : Oh, is it time to visit the land of Metaforgotten again? :P SHOES + ARMOR : Hmmmmm, Joey (or the narration) is being oddly specific about firebreathing lizard being a thing of the past. Can't say they're lizards, per se, but is this a reference to the axolotl associated with Green Sun powers, from the concept art? POINTES + ARMOR : ... they're a little 'rusty'. You magnificent pun-making b'st'rds, I salute you! HULA GIRLS : Oooooh, so Joey thinks Grandpa's been exploring the Pacific these past few years! Does that mean something actually clued him into the existence of the Frog Temple?! But what could it be? Did he maybe find other ways into the Medium before, that are now inaccessible? Is that how he came by a Typheus minion already? Oh, and there the far side comes into view! I reckon the power box is close to the wall of boxes, maybe we'll even get interrupted by the monster as we try to interact with it. POGS + HULA GIRLS : Oh, so there's a game of "milk caps" that pogs is based on that came from Hawaii! Interesting background detail. TREATS + HULA GIRLS : These things ARE awfully big, aren't they? I suppose Grandpa must have had his reasons for buying them, but I shutter to think what. Maybe he just wanted to create a garden luau at one point. SHOES + HULA GIRLS : ... Again a prompt mentioning the wall of boxes... Is the monster maybe hiding underneath it?? BLUE LADIES PAINTINGS : ... I was just commenting on how some of these we already saw hanging around. But Joey points it out as a plot point. Grandpa has backups that he doesn't look after. The allusion Joey makes to this behaviour made me think about how he cared more for Jade than Joey or Jude. But Blaperile has a point, it could also be a reference to how Grandpa completely ignored Nanna but still collected all these paintings because they reminded him of her. I get that Joey resents him, a lot, and for good reason. But I wonder if, in this particular instance, Grandpa's behaviour came from being scared of the prophecy Betty Crocker made, that Nanna and Grandpa would sire children? Maybe he was scared of having kids with someone else after meeting and subsequently losing Ms. Claire. Of course, it could be he was just afraid of making contact with her (he IS Jake after all). MIX + NARWHAL : N'aww, I knew it. Even to monsters, Joey wouldn't wish any actual harm. Veterinarian in heart and spirit! TREATS + NARWHAL : Pffffff, the deadpan is hard with this one. Looking further ahead for a moment, it would seem as if the mug in the foreground is clickable, but more likely clicking there will trigger some sort of scene? SHOES / POINTES + NARWHAL : I love these little combination prompt pairs. Going further into the basement... THERE's the actual wall of boxes she's talking about! AND IT'S FILLED WITH BETTY CROCKER BOXES!!!! Well, if that isn't a reference that Condy might have something to do with the monsters! ... And the mug is apparently clickable in its own right, pfffffff. And there's the power cabinet! Half-shut, so I wonder how the circuits were tampered with, exactly? Did the monsters not come down here for that intent but just chewed on the powerlines or something? I like that What Pumpkin was able to use the template at least in this way. It's the most they could probably do, copyright-wise. Lots of pink items in this corner of the basement. Reference to Condy too, probably? Plus, the MUG triggers a narration about the sitter, who would've appreciated the colour, too. Kind of creepy, considering what happened to Roxy in B2. Heh, the prompt talks about Grandpa's "special reserve" of booze, and the mug itself says "I <3 'STACHES". Staches, stashes... GREEN KEY / SHOES + MUG : It's actually nice to see Joey doesn't allround pity her sitter, it's just... Today she could've really used her. The skiing equipment looks kind of out of place here, I wonder what's the story here? MIX + SKI POLES : Nice time management skills, sweetheart! BATTERIES + SKI POLES : Another dud! CHERUB KEY + SKI POLES : So Joey doesn't really know whose these are, but if they're her mom's as she starts to think, she would jump on taking up skiing immediately were it not for circumstances, she says. POINTES + SKI POLES : Joey the ballet history geek, heheh. Hmm, okay, so the farthest left box of Crocker stuff implies that it's actually food implements. ... Make sense. Not sure what I was expecting. Shoes, for some reason, due to the shape of the boxes. BATTERIES + BOX : Ooooh, Betty Crocker name drop! Awesome. CHERUB KEY + BOX : Confirmation that all these appliances are Grandpa's, none are Ms. Claire's. It's a mystery to Joey, not to us, but probably not going to be clarified in-game at all. Of course, why wouldn't Ms. Claire have used any of these? Maybe she cooked with all fresh ingredients and with traditional cooking wares. OOOooh, the pile actually prompts different reactions from Joey! Hah, okay, the moving of the junkpile is its own separate command. SHOES + BOX : Someone has an anvil to drop on us. Okay, the pile contains a couple of semi-unethical appliances. Well, uh, yeah, that would seem like kind of the norm for Condy, but what would have been their use in a PRE-apocalyptic society? Ah, phew, MOVING the junkpile doesn't do anything, since it's too dangerous to do by hand. BATTERIES + PILE : Yeah, Joey, "step up your game"! HINT HINT. POGS + PILE : Narration is getting downright impatient with us. :P TREATS + PILE : Joey starts wondering if the monsters were magically summoned. Well, maybe they were SCIENTIFICALLY summoned. CHERUB KEY + PILE : Now I imagine Grandpa using a bulldozer to clear a room for more of his items. So, now to solve the puzzle for real! Ooooh, we weren't interrupted but instead got our first cutscene! Hah, cool! The boxes fell down and Joey moved them over to the side. I actually didn't think cutscenes of any short except the humorous would be this short, I figured we'd get attacked by the monster! I wonder if we'll be able to get the power on and get out of the basement in one go or not? Maybe we need to get back in here to retrieve the attic key after we lose it, as the spoiler we saw at one point seemed to indicate. POGS + CIRCUIT BREAKER : The only thing flipping at this point is the narration. If she had an exile, at this point it'd be screaming at her. :P It would be sweet if flipping the breaker would show us the house from the outside regaining power! ... And of course, this would seem like the perfect moment to do a perspective switch and have us be Jude for a change. In the past. :P ... OKAY. THERE WAS A CUTSCENE, YEAH. But the monster is HERE. Maybe not the long, legged one from the intro, but certainly A long, legged one. I do like that even the basement is suddenly much better lit. Often, the least efficient bulbs are down here. ... Is that a blue spirit-like mask in the bottom left corner? Oh fuck. Blaperile notices the monster's off to the right of the screen! Here comes our first strife! But first, wasn't there a prompt on the ski poles telling us to get the power on already? *looks it up* Yeah, the MIX + SKI POLES. ... Okay yeah, that didn't change. ... Well, guess there's no stalling it! Here we go for the strife! OKAY NEVER MIND, IT IS THE ORIGINAL FLAVOUR SNAKE MONSTER! Well, time to get even! Look at that design though, nice! As tall as Joey. In fact, I kind of hope What Pumpkin is going to bring out a figurine of it! I think it looks appropriately creepy, with human-like teeth, arms and tiny legs. ===> ... Wow. WOOOOOW. THAT WAS INTENSE! I mean, after it became apparent we weren't loosing health, it was just a matter of enjoying the different attacks and defensive moves! "GOTTA HAND IT TO YOU" "LEGGO OF THE PAST" "LET'S DO LUNGE" "CHECK PLEASE" "ASSAULT AND BATTERIES" "PEACE TREAT-Y" "INSUFFICIENT TREATMENT" "STRETCHER LUCK NEXT TIME" And I saw Joey make a different face before the strife started than inside. So, okay, we had some difficulty descerning how to 'win'. It turns out we needed to 'charge' our ballet moves using the tap dancing, heheh. Because Joey's muscles weren't prepared to pirouette away like that right away! Realism strikes again! Also of note, just like in the darkened trophy room, the walkie wasn't working. No backups for you! "PRIMA ABSCOND, YO", though, hahahah. So the snake monster was just too high level for us to engage it directly. Joey's still too inexperienced, but I have hopes we'll get to defeat it or something of equal level later on! Now that we're back in the kitchen, the regular House music is playing. We have the opportunity to explore everything while it's lit up, now. And Jude is contacting us, to congratulate us on the successful quest, I suppose. But we'll keep that for tomorrow. Good game, gents! I wonder if the monsters influencing the walkie talkie and radio has any further connotation beyond general creepiness. It would be something if they turned out to be powered by Void powers. We sure could use a Rogue of Void, in that case.

Our latest episode of the podcast is up for your listening pleasure: The Forgotten Plague- DANCE MANIA!!!

That Time Women Could Divorce Their Husbands By Having Intercourse in Court

Throughout a certain portion of history in the western world, getting a divorce was almost impossible. Even the royals had issues on this front, with perhaps the most famous example being the plight of King Henry 8th, a man whose desire to get an annulment famously led to him starting an entirely new branch of Christianity virtually identical to the old except that he was the ultimate authority and head instead of the Pope.

However, starting around the 14th century in certain parts of Europe, an avenue for a woman to divorce a man was to simply claim that her husband couldn’t consummate the marriage or, to put it more plainly- wasn't able to shampoo the wookie.

While, yes, technically a man could also use this very excuse to get out of a marriage, the social stigma attached to not being able to successfully put a little Ranch in the Hidden Valley bottle was so great that we could find no examples of a man using this excuse to annul a marriage, despite that this was basically a free pass out of any marriage if the man wanted it, given he simply had to not get it up during the trial and he was free.

This all brings us to these so called "Impotence Trials", at their peak with an estimated ten thousand or so taking place throughout Europe in the 17th century alone.

As you can probably imagine, the act of proving one’s innocence of this particular crime in court was naturally, quite hard, despite mostly all you needing to do was, well, get hard, with the occasional added requirement of showing you were capable of a little skeetshooting as well.

So how did this process actually go? It seems to have varied slightly from case to case and country to country, but generally the trials took place in the ecclesiastic courts, though we did find instances of ones that took place in a more normal court of law, one of which we'll get into shortly.

Before such a trial, a rather lengthy waiting period was often required, up to three years, to see if at some point the man was able to violate the prime directive. If, after that time span, the woman still asserted her husband's spelunker hadn't ever explored her cave of wonders then a proper trial would commence.

During the trial, potential witnesses to any relevant acts in question, like servants and friends, would be questioned about any intimate details they knew of the couple.

For example, consider the case of one Nicholas Cantilupe. His wife, Katherine Paynel, gave this account to her friend, Thomas Waus, who, in turn, was a witness at the trial:

That she often tried to find the place of...Nicholas’ genitals with her hands when she lay in bed with... Nicholas and he was asleep, and that she could not stroke nor find anything there and that the place in which Nicholas’ genitals ought be is as flat as the hand of a man.

What was going on with Nicholas' missing measuring stick isn't known as the trial abruptly halted when Nick went into hiding. That is all history will ever remember of Nicholas Cantilupe.

The women could also potentially be subjected to numerous, sometimes rather invasive, tests, particularly if the man otherwise seemed to be able to hit the two ball in the middle pocket when he himself was examined. The most important test for the ladies was the court trying to determine if the woman making the accusations was still a virgin.

Various ways of testing this existed, but one of the most common was to insert a mirror into the woman-in-question’s snu-snu to try to see if the one eyed optometrist had ever showed up to give an examination of his own.

Naturally, this type of mirror examination was hardly conclusive, and even if it was determined the woman had at some point had her triangle bisected by something, some would simply claim her husband had used his hands when his flag couldn't get past halfmast. Thus further casting doubt on the veracity of the results of that examination.

Not all just about being able to get it up, a man being able to impregnate the woman was also a key factor. Thus, other things women had to deal with during impotence trials included being grilled on their sexual proclivities, including how often they had sex and, critically, in what position. The latter was considered especially important because having sex in anything other than the missionary position was considered, if not a sin, at least uncouth, as that position was seen as the best way to get a woman pregnant. This should always, in the eyes of certain clergy, be the point of launching a heat seeking missile at the enemy base. Thus, if the man only ever was willing to put sour cream in his taco from an abnormal position, he was considered not to be doing his marital duties.

Beyond that, if the man had issues finishing the deed when the couple did have sex, the woman could potentially use her man's inability to put a fresh coat of paint on her garden shed as evidence against him.

Now for the men. The tests men had to endure were equally as invasive and, from a social standpoint, potentially even more humiliating as it was their inadequacy as a man that was being challenged, and in an extremely public way, with trial notes from these proceedings being obscenely popular with the masses- humans gonna human, no matter what era.

Again, exactly what happened here seems to have varied a bit from trial to trial and region to region, but the first thing to be determined was if the man was physically capable of doing his best impression of a narwale.

One particularly amusing test, noted to have occurred frequently in Spain, involved alternately dunking Tiny Tim in cold and then hot water and then seeing if he would stand up after.

In other cases, we found accounts of women who were, shall we say, experts on the male magic stick, thoroughly "examining" it and giving their accounts before the court. For example, in one such 1370 instance, we have this account of the results of three women's examination of one John Sanderson. His wife, Tedia Lambhird, had accused him of being impotent:

that the member of the said John is like an empty intestine of mottled skin and it does not have any flesh in it, nor veins in the skin, and the middle of its front is totally black. And said witness stroked it with her hands and... put [it] in that place it neither expanded nor grew. Asked if he has a scrotum with testicles she says that he has the skin of a scrotum, but the testicles do not hang in the scrotum but are connected with the skin as is the case among young infants.

And, yes, this account of poor John's Little Soldier is all history will ever remember of him. Rest in Peace John Sanderson. I bet even at the height of your shame, you never considered that 649 years later a description of your genitals would still be fodder for the amusement of the masses.

Moving swiftly on, in other cases, a (male) doctor might be hired to stimulate the man’s noodle to see if it could be cooked al-dente. Understandably, even men capable of normally rising to the occasion struggled to do so under these circumstances.

For example, in one famous account of the Marquis de Gesvres, it is noted, in his case he was able to achieve a partial erection while being examined, but the examiners felt the, to quote, "tension, hardness, and duration" were inadequate for the required cloning via boning.

Lucky for the men, many of the males who were a part of the trial were sympathetic to this plight, and so failing to release the Kraken wasn't usually immediately seen as a definitive sign that the man wasn't capable of having his corn dog battered under more normal circumstances.

Further, some men even stated their inability to perform during the trial was because the wife had hired a sorcerer to bewitch his giggle stick, such as the case of one Jacques de Sales. In 1603, de Sales was subjected to such a trial and, when he couldn't salute the jurors, stated his wife herself had cast a spell on his penis to keep it from saying hi.

Given the uncertainty in all this and attempts to give the men in question every opportunity to show they could storm the pink fortress, these trials often drug out for some time, even months, or, in some cases, the ruling would be to tack on another duration of up to three years to see if things sorted themselves out, quite literally, in the end.

This all brings us to what was generally the final, and most definitive test- Trial by Congress, which, just so we all know what we're talking about here, was loading the clown into the cannon with an audience nearby.

To give an idea of how potentially humiliating this could be for the man, especially given the trial notes would soon be public fodder, we'll mention a particular one that occurred in Rheims, France, where it was noted:

The experts waited around a fire. Many a time did he call out: “Come! Come now!” but it was always a false alarm. The wife laughed and told them: “Do not hurry so, for I know him well.” The experts said after that never had they laughed as much nor slept as little as on that night.

After the deed was done, or at least the attempt at it, experts would then examine the couple intimately, as well as the sheets, to see if the doughnut had been properly glazed.

However, as you might imagine, doing the dipsy doodle with someone you probably hate at this point, as well as with an audience nearby and your marriage on the line, wasn't exactly an ideal scenario for the man, especially for men that may have already genuinely had trouble saluting Sergent Furburger.

Case in point- one René de Cordouan, aka, the Marquis de Langey. In 1657, the Marquis had his man-handle were put on trial, not in the ecclesiastical courts, but by the High Court of Paris itself. His then 17 year old wife, Mademoiselle Marie de St Simon de Courtemer, had claimed in the four years they'd been together, she had only ever observed his pooch lying there, to quote her, "absolutely destitute of motion".

This disdain for his ability to hold a joint session of congress was in stark contrast to their seemingly happy relationship in the early going given letters that were brought to account during the trial.

Interestingly, in this case, eager to prove his abilities in the bedroom to the masses, Langey himself demanded the Trial by Congress, even though up to this point it had appeared the trial might go his way as he had otherwise demonstrated the necessary abilities and the lady herself was considered not to be a virgin by their examination.

Unfortunately for Langey, the pressure to pickle the prime meridian lest his reputation be besmirched forever, someday even recounted on the interwebs, was too much. After several hours of trying, he could not do the deed. It probably didn't help that a fifteen person jury was hanging out nearby to observe the results.

Thus, the marriage was dissolved, he was forced to pay the legal fees for both he and his ex, he became the butt of jokes among the nobility and the masses, had to return his wife's dowry, and was forbidden to ever marry again.

Critical to his tale is that, after the divorce, despite the court order against it, he went ahead and took another wife, Diana de Navailles. This time he had no such issues, managing to father a whopping seven kids with Diana. Once his virility was proved, he then appealed his former sentence successfully and his marriage to Diana was officially confirmed.

From this and other similar accounts, it does appear there were at least some men back then fully capable of using their schnoodlypooper who were charged with being impotent or otherwise incapable of getting a puck past the goalie.

To add insult to injury, as mentioned in the case of Langey, should the man lose the case, not only was his inability to Mickey a Minnie Mouse now known to the world, along with very explicit and detailed descriptions of his dud of a Weapon of Mass Destruction, he was also liable for the court and legal fees of both he and his former wife.

On this note, upper class women were far more likely to bring claims of impotence against their husbands as they both had the means to hire a lawyer in the first place, and pay if she lost, and also would typically have better prospects for a future husband more able to give her a proper root canal if she won.

As an idea of how much more likely this was, it is noted that in France approximately 20% of all known instances of Impotence Trials were between members of the nobility, despite that these individuals represented only about 3% of the general populace.

In the end, several famous cases where men supposedly proven to be impotent during a trial managed to father children after started to shift the tides against such trials proving anything. Eventually other avenues of divorce also opened up, which all saw impotence trials falling by the wayside by the 19th century. However, let us not forget that for a brief period in European history, men could literally be put on trial for not being able to take the bald-headed gnome for a stroll in the misty forest.
