“My most humble apologies, I assumed you were planning the conquest of Jupiter with our general. Your stealth skills are impressive indeed.”

”You might escape, but know that if you do manage to do so and get in our way again, we will be much less forgiving”

“I’m doing that too, fool.”

*disappears* “how are the plans for the conquest of Jupiter coming?”

*reappears* “see?”

Bookwyrm stared at Symphonian flatly.

"Starvation? That's the best excuse you could come up with? If you really cared about these people, you'd be cultivating stable, nutritious food sources. You'd work on economy and biology. I recommend Entomophagy; if we switch to eating bugs as a staple food source, we could create a stable food source, help slow climate change, and further a stable system. And it would be far easier to do that then it would be to turn entire worlds into pies. And what happens when you decide to turn our own world into pie? What then? How many deaths will you cause?"

Symph stared back at Bookwyrm. "Pies, depending on their materials, can be healthy. Also, if we change everything into pre-created pies, then we wouldn't have the deaths of plants or of creatures (such as bugs) on our hands. We have never said we want to turn our world into pie, only others. If changing things into pie is the only thing we can do now, and people are dying, what do ou suppose we should do? No excercize this power?"

"It's really the only thing you can do? With technology to do this you can't do anything else to help people?"

I'm not worried about that...

[Lord Gregorio he/him]

*sneezes

"Oh boy. This is getting interesting."

*Begins deep critical thinking*

Also. Are we planning on moving this to the RPG section, @Cash67?

"I'm the master of jellies, not of tech... Is there anything that you're doing that's solving these problems? Because this seems to be the only solution we have as of now."

Sorry if this sounds rude or anything!!

I think we should, but I don’t know how @Lord Gregorio

Oh.  I guess you better know how. That might help. There's a report button somewhere. You can use that to send a message to the moderator dudes, asking them to move it. They will eventually. At least. That's how I've done it.

Do we speak ooc in quotes now?

Yeah, I think so.

 

[Cash67]

I go to the room where @Witless of Shinovar is and ask to hear the plans for Jupiter's pieification

[SymphonianBookworm she/her]

Symph was sitting in the corner of the room, quietly munching on basalt pie. "Anyone want a slice?"

[Edema Rue she/her]

"I'll take one."

[Cash67]

I taste a spoonful just like I did with the last pie. 

[SymphonianBookworm she/her]

The pie is actually just a salt pie. It is, surprisingly, incredibly salty. And slightly spicy. “It’s good, right? Though, I might have added a couple jalapeños…”

[The Bookwyrm he/him]

Bookwyrm narrowly managed to escape the MPI's headquarters. He took a helicopter to the nearest airport, then an airplane to NASA headquarters. He walked inside and conversed with many of their leaders, beginning the opposition to MPI.

"We'll need to organize a new space administration," one of the administrators said. "Bookwyrm, we're putting you in charge."

"Me? I-"

"No excuses. This is of vital importance."

The administrator walked out of the conference room, leaving Bookwyrm alone.

Well...now what?

can I join? Followup, if I do join, can I have the title of first/second executive Platypus (if you're the executive Platypus then I'll be the second or assistant executive Platypus, if you're not I'd love to be the executive Platypus)? after all, I too, am a platypus. I think my job would be emotional and moral support!  Competitive environments like this one will need support like that.

@Being of Cacophony Welcome. Don't betray us as Bookwrym did. We shall see where our president puts you.

I was wandering the halls, taking not of logistical things when I discover Bookwrym is no longer here.

I immediately send a message to @Cash67 that we may have a problem.

[Telrao she/her]

"Storms, the guy escaped!" I say, heading towards the door. "I'm going to check out NASA and see what's happening over there."

[Edema Rue she/her]

"Can I have some more pie? Or I guess I can catch him first if you want."

[Immortal Platypus]

A random platypus walks in the door.

"Pie? I thought this was NASA. I was going to ask them where the MPI HQ is. Do you know where I could find that? I'd like to apply for a job."

@Cash67

“Indeed, your request has been granted Executive Platypus Cacophony! Your first job is to support our logistics master @Lord Gregorio and our special forces commander @Aes Sedai to track down our escaped convict. When you return, you may work with our Master of Ceremonies @Shining Silhouette to prepare the best way to communicate to the world that we tolerate no traitors. You shall do nothing if the traitor is not actively pursuing our demise, but if he is…. I trust that you all will deal with this in a quick and efficient manner. “
 

“Excellent work @Telrao, please do be sure to quell any rebellions happening within the organization.”

Do y’all think we should place a summary of the story in the OP so that people can grasp what’s going on without reading the whole thread?

i would recommend it. it would help me at least, and probably others who want to join.

"Yes sir!" the platypus salutes from the ground. "Happy to help."

Then it turns to @Lord Gregorio. "What would you like me to do? I'll obey you probably, unless it's something crazy. Plus I'm good for emotional support. High stakes tracking sessions need emotional support more often than you'd think."

“Also, now that we have made the Moon Pie, do we need a revision of the Mission Statement?”
