I can't tell you how much anxiety this causes me.

[coutelier]

I still have my Dingbot around somewhere, although unfortunately it's long since stopped being able to zip about changing directions (not that it was ever really that good at it to be honest).

Dingbot 5400 (DING-BO, OMS-B) by Tomy, Japan (1985). With a design supposedly inspired by ET, Dingbot runs around aimlessly, changing direction whenever it bumps into something. “The battery operated Dingbot is a good communicator, emitting little squeals of excitement as he shakes his head, smiling as he moves about changing direction as he bumps into objects. He is a fast traveling robot who bumps into walls and obsticles, chatters, turns his head, speeds off in another direction, carries his own floor plan in his arms. He is a funny robot who is slowly learning the meaning of walls. He's dingbot.”

#inescapable follow-up thought: dingbot!maedhros#dingbot!all feanorians…don’t kill them just severely compromise their ability to kill�� -@tanoraqui

You underestimate Feanorian ingenuity! Maedhros would live to wield is 6 inch dingbot body as deadly as his 6 foot elf body. 😌 (Possibly by poisoning water supplies, but you can't have everything.)

I just think Maedhros would really enjoy the chance to be Castle Heterodyne, y'know?

Girl Genius Self Insert OC Poll

The world of Girl Genius is frightfully well populated for a setting of Marvelous Manic Mad Science. It's very easy to imagine all sorts of folk in the background feuding, flouncing, fighting, (and other verbs that start with f ;)) without necessarily crossing paths with the main story. With that in mind, let's imagine for a moment...

[big-ass-magnet]

I was mulling over my total inability to guess where the Foglios are ever going with anything, so:

Yes includes things like lost in time, died but was revived, zombie-type revenant, trapped in stasis, trapped in dingbot, or any 'dead in every way that matters' situations.

No includes being dead.

(If his consciousness is in a Lucrezia esque summoning engine: not implanted in a body=dead, in a body=alive)

No 'it's complicated' option because while I know death is a very surmountable problem in the GG universe, to me, "are you alive right this second" is a very yes/no question.

BIG SIPPY

[professorsparklepants]

Sorry but we accidentally put your boyfriend into a dingbot. Yeah we transferred his consciousness from his mortal flesh into a machine the size and shape of a pocket watch. We can't catch him because he keeps hiding in the crawl spaces like a mouse. Sorry.
