[color=#000000:post_uid0][quote:post_uid0]Mirror O'Brien: (rallying the slaves) Anyone who wants their freedom, follow me!
Mirror Yang: Free-dohm? That is one of our worship-words. Mirror O'Brien: Less talk, more uprising.[/quote:post_uid0] Nice, Marc. But then again I always love TOS references. [quote:post_uid0]Kira: It wouldn't have been a close call if the three of you had stopped laughing long enough to rescue me sooner. Marc: We couldn't help it after you misheard the charge as "being a bi--[/quote:post_uid0] Favorite part. [quote:post_uid0]7. Chapel: A universe where Spock follows his father's lead in marriage choice 6. Spock: A universe where Chapel follows her fiancé's lead in lifespan [/quote:post_uid0] This one had me chuckling. [quote:post_uid0]Kawalsky: See, the Quantum Mirror isn't like a regular dimensional browser. In fact, you have to channel surf millions of alternate universes to find the one you're looking for. Daniel: No "Favourites" folder? No "History" listing? No dimensional listings channel? Kawalsky: Actually, your last position gets wiped when you turn the mirror off, so you have to surf for it again. [pause] Daniel: This remote sucks. Kawalsky: I don't think they ever got to version 2.0.[/quote:post_uid0] Heh. I don't get Stargate jokes, but I do get computer jokes. Nice one, Nan.[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]My computer is senile, so I was writing somewhat from experience. ;)
GREAT work Derek, Kira, Marc, and IJDGAF! Will Akili be making further appearances, or can we assume she escaped in the confusion? ;)[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]All the fivers are wonderful. My very favorite bits out of them were
[quote:post_uid0]Sisko: Judging from your outfit, it's a place with a ghastly sense of fashion. Mirror O'Brien: Our clothes fit our personalities just fine. Sisko: I was afraid of that. ... Mirror Garak: Bad news, Intendant. No matter how much I flog the slaves, their morale refuses to improve. ... Mirror Mira: ... Mirror Garak: (nodding) Shall I put another notch in your belt on my way out? Mirror Kira: It's over there somewhere with the rest of my clothes.[/quote:post_uid0] [quote:post_uid0]Riker: So Data's my first officer now? B4: Actually, I'm not Data. Riker: Sure, whatever. ... Tomalak: So what didn't strike a chord? We figured you'd waltz right through our simulated future. Riker: It was Minuet who made me face the music. Tomalak: But we chose a love interest who was canon. Riker: Too bad she was just a jazzed up hologram.[/quote:post_uid0] [quote:post_uid0]Kawalsky: Jaffa? DIEDIEDIE! AltAltCarter: Ooooh, freaky hair. ... Carter: We probably succeeded because we're different from the people in your universe. Those slight differences may have help-- AltAltCarter: So you're better than we are, are you? Is that it? Carter: I didn't mean-- AltAltCarter: Bite me. Carter: What just happened? O'Neill: I have a vague suspicion she doesn't deal with the chronic whumping as well as you do. ... [Hug.] Shippers: [swoon] Nan: [i:post_uid0]Gahh![/i:post_uid0][/quote:post_uid0] :D The Sleapers installment was really silly too. [quote:post_uid0]Marc: You call that a plan? IJD: I don't remember you complaining on the wizard world. Marc: You had turned me into a ferret.[/quote:post_uid0] I'm still trying to picture that. :lol: And a thoroughly funny Top Ten list, too! What a great update! :lol: Â :bigsmile:[/color:post_uid0] |

If the next four days are anything like as good, then I'm probably going to end up laughing myself to death.[/color:post_uid0] |

[color=#000000:post_uid0]There was also the "Elbonian Mafia" line at the beginning of Part I. ;)[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]OK, I've only just noticed that - shows how much attention I was paying.[/color:post_uid0]

You read the book? Â :O[/color:post_uid0] |
[color=#000000:post_uid0]^ It's been on my bookshelf for years (as part of a volume of non-Foundation, non-Empire, non-robot Asimov stories.) One of the best sci-fi stories anyone ever wrote. :)[/color:post_uid0]
