  • hehe. Yeah, a chicken just told me a cautionary tale - beware the ides of Tii. We should start compiling them:

    A Chicken Named Cyclonius:  Beware the ides of Tii.

    You talked to a Chicken. 

    A Chicken Named Cyclonius  You don’t believe me? Fine. Just come the ides of Tii, you’ll see. Anything can happen: poisonings, insanification, spontaneous explosionings…

    A Chicken Named Cyclonius  …gravity sucks and sudden baldness. I’ve seen it all. I’ve seen it all. You watch your step on the ides of Tii.

    A Chicken Named Cyclonius  I look like I know? I couldn’t tell you. They’re dangerous, though. Beware them. Beware. Beware the ides of Tii.

    A Chicken Named Cyclonius  Not a problem.

  • Just got a tree and a piggy, well I never.
    A talking tree!

    A Piggy Named Foster  Man, one time? On Recurse Eve? In the dying days of the thirteenth age of Pot…
    A Piggy Named Foster  Or nineteeth. Whatever. Whichever of those was the totally righteous one. In the dying days of THAT era, I heard the most dedicated of the Potians wiped out the entire world stock of hooch before the party was halfway done.
    A Piggy Named Foster  They had to break into the Giants' Private Cavern, and "borrow" their stash of Hell Wine.
    A Piggy Named Foster  Ya, dude. You know? From those crazy hellish grapes?
    A Piggy Named Foster  You haven’t? Dude. Be grateful. That stuff is some bad, BAD vino.

    Bubble Tree  Pop! Pop pop pop!
    Bubble Tree  Shhhhhh. Testing for hidden wires. Can you hear whining? Feedback? Pop! Pop pop! Shhh…
    Bubble Tree  Come back later. Another time. Be on the safe side. In the meantime: trust no one. NO ONE.

  • Yeah! Let's all post everything the plants and animals say in here, so no one else gets a nice surprise!

  • Not everyone is getting the same stories. In fact at the moment nobody is getting the same stories. Also, people don't have to read them if they prefer a surprise. Some people aren't getting them at all.

  • Beryl Rock  Spriggan thought it was funny, you know.

    You talked to a Beryl Rock. 

    Beryl Rock  To get back at almighty Zille, creator of all, Spriggan offered to help out tending the rocks one day. You know, to get on her good side.

    Beryl Rock  ZILLE, may she look kindly upon my greenly obedience. Zille? The one true giant? Giant before all giants, sculptor of creation, she who cannot be shaken? Zille, all obsequious obeisance to her name. Anyway, to make a long story short…

    Beryl Rock  …Spriggan, so proud of the way his piffling tree things worked, decided everything, everything should have roots. And PING! Everyone gets roots. And suddenly PAF. Beryl gets to grow back.

    Beryl Rock  I know. Ridiculous. That Spriggan. Don’t tell anyone I said this, but – *shhhh* – he’s not as funny as he thinks he is. And what is more…

    Beryl Rock  Regeneration is a right pain in the elements.

    Beryl Rock  You mocking me, Glitch?

  • shhexy corin - personally, i love the fact that those of us who have been playing for some time do not miss out on these new quests and badges.

    Thank you TS for allowing us to do them retrospectively!

  • Me too.

    I'm grateful for the chance to keep some things quiet, but wish all of the talking things had their tongues ripped out permanently :)

  • Sparkly Rock  Ooooooh, it’s YOU!

    Sparkly Rock  I was just thinking about you, princess.

    Sparkly Rock  Well, not about you specifically. More about Glitches
    in general.

    Sparkly Rock  You know, this might be the first age, but you were not the first two-legged blips to pop from the combined minds of the giants.

    Sparkly Rock  Oh, you should have seen the others though. Dark clouds over their heads, some of them, wouldn’t smile for love nor tickling, swords in hand, beards full of grizzle. Bleh! Filthy, they were!
    Sparkly Rock  Oh, they didn’t last. There were more, too. Shouty ones, twitchy fingered short ones, they weren’t around for long, I’ll tell you that. I’ll tell you this, too…

    Sparkly Rock  You’re FAR more my type, handsome.

  • I spoke to a rock and a chicken today. ...

     I'm not as crazy as some may think.

  • I am so glad the stories are back.  My favourites are the paranoid bubble trees and the grumpy peat bogs.

  • Common Complaints of Beryl
    Beryl Rock: If you think this is bad, you should have seen the place when Zille first invented chickens.

    me: What was bad? What? Wait, Zille invented Chickens?!?

    Beryl Rock:  Zille invented EVERYTHING, may her almighty Zilleness show mercy to my very muttering of her name. She had a mind to create something, she said, more huggable than a rock, so she created these little beaked terrors. Bane of our lives, they were.

    me: Don't like chickens?

    Beryl Rock:  Didn’t like the fact that Zille couldn’t see the point in wings. Or legs.

    me: Hm...

    Beryl Rock:  So they just sat there, squawking and complaining, and pecking at the heels of anyone who was unfortunate enough to pass close by.

    me: But they HAVE wings. And legs.

    Beryl Rock:  Only because Zille, may she smile kindly upon her gravel-brained servant, invented Humbaba and Cosma to do her bidding and get the little blighters moving.

    me: That's...

    Beryl Rock:  Amazing, yes, all praise to her omnipotent and glorious Zilleness.

    me: ...I was going to say odd. But ok.

  • The Dramatic History of Dullite
    Dullite Rock: Hey, psst. Who's winning?

    Me: Huh?

    Dullite Rock  The era. Who’s winning the era?

    Me:  I don't really...

    Dullite Rock  Huh. I bet with my brother over there?

    Me: Again, huh?

    Dullite Rock  About which giant will win the era? Ringing any bells? Oy, they don’t tell you anything, do they?

    me: No?

    Dullite Rock  *Sigh*. Ok, so the core of the matter… Heh. Core? Like in geology? Heh. Anyway. Each Giant had their chance, each existed only one at a time, and had dominion for a whole age - some long, some short, whatever, everything’s short when you’re a rock. But however long, each giant failed to balance the world on their own. Some spectacularly.

    Me: Oh?

    Dullite Rock  Mm. So now here we are. Twelfth era. Where one giant must prove their right to dominate the world and control the imaginations of the rest. FOR EVER MORE. Or something like that. That’s what I heard, anyway.

    Me: So who's winning?

    Dullite Rock  That’s what I was asking you.

    Me: Ah yes. Sorry. No Idea.

  • Piggy Tales
    Pig: Man, one time? On Recurse Eve? In the dying days of the thirteenth age of Pot…

    me: Thirteenth?

    Pig: Or nineteeth. Whatever. Whichever of those was the totally righteous one. In the dying days of THAT era, I heard the most dedicated of the Potians wiped out the entire world stock of hooch before the party was halfway done.

    me: What Happened?

    Pig: They had to break into the Giants' Private Cavern, and "borrow" their stash of Hell Wine.

    me: Hell Wine?!?

    Pig: Ya, dude. You know? From those crazy hellish grapes?

    Me: The grapes, yeah. But I've never even seen hell wine...

    Pig: You haven’t? Dude. Be grateful. That stuff is some bad, BAD vino.

    Me: Gotcha.
