    :eek: clever!

    Just in case, though...the teashoes are always broadcasting. They generate their own power supply from walking...

    Ladies, gentlemen, and others, could I have your attention please? Thank you. In my recent research into the Royal Archives, it has come to my attention that the first whole week in July is supposed to be devoted to the yearly Tea Festival, which is held in Mount Tealeaf. We apologize for missing these important dates, but the point is that we know about it now! Therefore, I hereby declare the Tea Festival to be open. :p

    ((Not sure about this one. If you instantly know that I effectively made MaxSpock a Quadruple-Agent, It might cause some plot-problems. Otherwise I wouldnt have had the EMP....Maybe only some got through, and the Meaning is Open to pretty Broad Interperatation? Unless, of course, you knowing instantly plays a major role in your planned storyline))

    ((This was mostly trebort's idea, not mine. I'm more like Q from the Bond movies on this one. I'm sure you can come up with a clever idea to fix this, but for now let's say we only got parts and most of it is taken out on context.))

Oh, and please, for my sake, don't ask how an EMP can be temporary. Now, The reason I called you here..."

    *leans in closer*

    Antagonist- "Now, as you may know, Teacup land has decided to spy on me. How, I don't know. What I do know is that I have a very delicate operation in the works, that may insure the success of all of my many endeavors for years to come!"

    *Leans in even closer*

    Antagonist- "So, Considering the circumstances, I have decided that, to insure my success, I need someone like you. Someone who those Teacuppers trust."

    *Leans in even closer, to the point where MaxSpock's Personal space has likely been violated*

    Antagonist- "What I need is a Double-Agent, an Inside Man."

    *Leans in so close that MaxSpock's and the Antagonist's noses are touching*

    Antagonist- "And that man, MaxSpock, is going to be you!"

    *Resumes his original position*

    Antagonist- "Your primary mission will be feeding them false information, and trying to figure out who their spy is. Other than that, sabotage and info-gathering should keep you busy. So....Congratulations, Double-Agent! You start immediately! Dismissed."

    *The Antagonist exits the conference room, joined by Minioneer in one of the hallways of the lair*

    Antagonist- "Brilliant, eh Minioneer? If they decide to send a spy, Ill know about him before he even gets here, with MaxSpock as a double-agent!"

    Minioneer- "Sir, while it is a good plan, I cant say I share your optimism; Even your best plans have a tendency to spiral into excessively complicated, out of control situations....speaking of which, you haven't shown me what's in that box yet..."

    Antagonist- "Ah! Thank you for reminding me, Minioneer! Come, to the control room! I shall show an object that will be the harbinger of my ultimate salvation! Mwehehe...."

    *The two head to the control room, unaware that they just hired a double agent to work as a double agent spying on the people who hired him to spy on the Antagonist in the first place...or that the contents of the Antagonist's mysterious box will only make even more confusing and complicated....*

    ========================
    *Tries to reconstuct the transmission*
    "All in good time. First, I need to do something as a precaution... *STATIC* ... K'raq may be .... temporary ..., ...have a .... couple of hours..., sorry about that. ... please, ... ask how...temporary. Now, The ... call... as you...know, Teacup land has ...me. ...

Dismissed."

    Wow, lots of good info here: It seems that K'raq is only temporary and only has a few hours to live, Antagonist has a rash in his ear and likes rusty teacups, someone named Double-Man Max is going to the primary feeding which may mean lunch, And they are figuring out how to collect wooden shoes and even have a con-man to mediate. All very interesting.....

    ((ooc: Sorry for the double post, but I wanted to make a quick announcement. We have enough pages to the wiki now that if you want to create a new one, make sure you do a search first to make sure there isn't already an existing page for that topic. :rolleyes:
    Also, I am in need of a photoshop expert.......I'd like to have a picture of King Trebort in a party hat to put on his birthday page, but alas I have zero photoshop skills. :( You can either send a link to me, or put it on the page yourself, either one works. That is all. :D))

    *While of teacupland is reveling in the fun and fanfare of a tea-related holiday, The Antagonist celebrates a much Darker event...*

    Antagonist- "Well? What do your scans say, Minioneer?"
    Minioneer(Using fancy, cheesy-looking equipment to analize the Contents of the mysterious box, a strange, black, textureless orb)- "I dont believe it sir...your hypothesis was correct; this is a self-sustained tear in the fabric of reality....how exactly did you come by this again?"
    Antagonist- "Ran across it while exploring the Catacombs....well, what do you say we hook it up?"
    Minioneer- "Hook it up to what, sir?(The Antagonist wheels out a portal-generator, with an orb)...that portal generator? Really?

    Antagonist- "I dont see the problem...After all, once I hook it up, ill be able to reach any Dimension I want! Mwehehehe....soon...soon...."

    Minioneer- "The one you made out of parts from that dumpster behind that electronics store?"
    Antagonist- "Well, it was supposed to be from Radio Shack's dumpster, but someone else offered them a better publicity deal...."

    Minioneer- "The one you built using ducktape?"

    Antagonist- "Ducktape's cheap, alright? Would you rather i have used that fancy electrical tape? And besides, I have a state of the art power source! (Grabs the orb just as it begins to screech again, occasionally phasing out of existence, and places it in the slot on the portal-generator. Suddenly, a tear in reality itself appears in the portal, distorting the area around it) See? I mean, so what if its extremely unstable? And so what if It's thousands of years old?(Turns towards Minioneer, away from the portal, where a strange disturbance is forming in the center of the tear) I mean, at most, it'll short out. (The disturbance grows in size, manifesting as a horizontal line, still relatively centered, Minioneer looking at it intently) Seriously Minioneer, Tell me, what's the worst that could happen?"

    Minioneer- "....Probably....that, sir..."

    *The Antagonist turns around, just as the Disturbance begins to Open, revealing a massive, glowing Eye......*

    Antagonist- "Ok....so...that's pretty bad...I suppose..(the eye starts to dilate rapidly, emitting a moaning, echoing screech)....Ya, there isn't any chance that it's the good kind of creep, unholy screeching-noise, is there? (Screeching becomes louder, more disturbing) Ya....I didn't think so..."

    ((Oh, and feel free to add to any of my articles(The Antagonist article and the Minioneer article for now, eventually King Mocha and the Generals); Ill make whatever changes are needed, so dont be shy:). After all, I could use all the help I can get:D))

Why do you care? .....What do you mean its "Not one of our products"? So...your saying that you needed to reach a quota, so you just sold an orb you found in the Ancient Underground? Kinda cheap, dont you think? ....Yes, I tried to use it in a portal machine....What do you mean it will continue expanding until it destroys everything? ....Cant you stop it? wait....you have no idea how it works? Well, a giant Eye appeared in the middle, does that mean anything? ....What do you mean you have "No Idea" because its "Not Technically yours"? ....probably not a good thing? I could have figured that one out myself, thank you very much! ...No, thank you for your time, you mindless blue-collar fool!"
