*Genrewriter puts his computer on automatic and glances over to Dr. Warmflash.*

Genrewriter: We can finish the checkup later.

Dr. Warmflash: What's the matter?

Genrewriter: Something came up.

*Genrewriter looks over as the computer begins to beep furiously. Looking at the paper that comes out, he frowns and rushes out to M's office.*

:phone rings. Xenobia checks. It's Ken Livingstone calling:

I think the Lord Mayor was partial to Regents Street. Ah well.

Is it really that hard for terrorists to submit permits before they try their hand at urban redevelopment?

:Goes to personal safe to retrieve the non-import Vodka and fresh ground pepper:

Come hither Athena. :sets up shots: Rule number one of working here: You run with the double-ohs you play by their rules. Getting turned on by objects exploding near you (see Xen's essay on missile launchers and le petit mort), is an excellent start.

Now drink your shot and type up your version of events. M is going to want to see a version that does not involve details supposing the drinking, dressing, and dating habits of the predators.

Having things explode around you is not only fun and exciting, but its downright good therapy. (Office work is so stressful at times.)

If there's a hidden meaning behind that - I got it. If theres not, there should be.

Excellent. Do, my belov'd Athena, take up your ink and quill and by writing, put to rights all those details left untold. I.E.: I would love to the passenger's perspective of the events as they unfolded.

Bartender: (recognizing Bryce) Get out!

003: Relax Vlad...I'm not here to put the wall back up. Guinness and a MaCallan 18.

003: (not taking his eyes from pint as he sips) Tell Yuri back there to behave himself unless he'd like another manners lesson.

So you are going ahead with your plans to try and gentrify 003 and 004. Good luck.

See you in ten years.

Do you think Bryce would mind if I borrowed some of that C-4 he was playing with earlier. I think a certain administrator at my college needs her day brightened.

Why? So you can figure out how to keep the bar open so you can do shots while being shot at?

I'm disappointed...why not add some Bailey's and have an Irish Car Bomb.

Or did you blow up enough cars today?

Really 003, it will be months before M and the chief of the MI5 are speaking again! Not to mention Ken Livingstone is talking about turning Vauxhall into a Co-op complex! Just look at what you have done!

*Bryce finishes pint and shot, pays bill, steps over slumped figure of Yuri, heads for door*

Thanks Vlad (gestures to Yuri on floor who groans slightly) buy him a shot of warm gin when he comes around.

*Climbs in Jag, prints out most recent posts in thread from CD player*

Hmmmmm.......

Yeah 004, we're in for it.

Asterix is going to string us from the yard arm.

and Xen - A "Car Bomb" is Jameson (Irish), Bailey's and topped with a bit of Guinness in a shot glass. Not a pint.

No....

That's only if a Wuss drinks it.

The version I had not once, not twice, but three times at a barbeque is the following:

1 pint of Guinness into which is dropped a shot glass with either Jameson or Scotch (whatever is handy) with a bit of Bailey's on top of the shot.

The shot will cause a fizzle in the pint -- ergo the explosion.

Nice to see I can out do you at something.

No, really, I believe you. That would explain why things go up in flames so fast when you and Matt are around. It's not the weapons, it's the alcohol.

[Glor (009)]

*009 steps back from his office window and takes a long drag on his Cohiba, smiling when he sees the smoke rising up from the "small" explosion 003 and 004 just created. He had been reading through some briefs and trying to avoid the mayhem involving G's techs and adhesive earlier in the day.

Glor puts down the file, throws on his jacket, checks his 4 sidearms and 2 throwing knives, and once again steps over a few techs on his way out of the office suppressing a chuckle as he thinks of the poor fools that chased 004 and their deserved end. Pitty he was in the office at the time. Would have been nice to try out the latest version of the C4 mini RCs Q sent up.

Passing by 003's office 009 sets a bottle of 25 year old Scotch into 003's in box with a note "sorry about the office, that tech seems to have decided to move to Paraguay. Guess he didn't realize you would be there soon. BTW, it was Xen that fingered you as the culprit. Enjoy the Scotch." Takes all of the files marked "Urgent Paperwork" and drops them in 006's In Box and heads for the lift.

Sees light in Moneypenny's office on and calls out "Goodnight Moneypenny, see you around the office 004."

[Xenobia]

Oh I have no doubt that 003 is to blame, but what did I finger him for doing?

Heey, be careful. Don't rush into becoming friends with 003 too quickly. Next thing you know your playing toss-across with hand grenade in the MI5 parking lot.

Okay, so it's fun.....but its just....well....it's kinda wrong.

Only if you are Lieutenant Colonel Slade and you manage to blind yourself.

But then again, Slade went pretty far with his four senses.

And if I was blind, I wouldn't have to see the mess you and 003 make on a regular basis.

No problem.

I will happily e-mail you photos of some of my favorite "messes."

Some of them as they occured.

[Xenobia]

I dare you to send me that email.

And another thing...I can awaken before ten am before work, but try to avoid it at all costs.

Things are much prettier at night. That's the best time to be alive.

This is the "Thread About Nothing."

Of course you have to read all fifteen+ pages for any of it to begin to make sense...

...not that it ever really will.

Like Hell miss Suzy Goose.....

As I happened to be at the pub last night, just happened to be, and I considered a Car Bomb (well, I was considering one for the black sedan that was parked in the alley across the street with Yuri and a few goons) and I compared notes with my bartender (the very same chap who oversaw the serving of 55 people at my DAD party).

There are, in fact, three versions - The TRUE car bomb is done as a shot.
Two types of Irish Whisky
Baileys
Splash of Guinness

Your version is hardly in the same league. Now, knowing what an EXPERIENCED drinker you are, I'll let it slide. Both are fine drinks, but the TRUE one packs a bit more C-4.

Check your facts next time.

009 - Mistakes happen and when your bowels are clinching from bad tabasco, logic takes a back seat - No worries;) Thanks for the intel and the scotch and re: 006 - Bloody well done! Join 004 & I for lunch - Scott's 1pm - The Angus steaks are the best in town.

Beat me at drinking or knowledge of alcohol??

Silly Girl......or is that silly "goose"

Sorry Old Man,

Forgive me, sir, but one does not begin a book at the middle or read it from the end backwards.

Some of the banter you can get away with scanning through, however, those portions of prose and poetry (forgive me for calling it that) are very much worth the endeavor.

Investigate and discover the path to truth.
Seek and ye shall find.
Do it your damn self.

You know....stuff like that.

Blah.
