The Saucepan Man has been trapped in the Barrow!
Question

A bundle of tumbleweed blows forlornly across the REB2 threads.

A solitary figure bedecked in pots and pans wanders into view.

"Hello," he cries. "Is there anybody there?" But his words simply echo in the vast emptiness ...

Tumbleweed tumbles

I would like to post, yet I went not so long ago. That said, if no-one's going to leap, like a pen-wielding salmon of laughter, into the stream of REB, I might trail my fingers through the dregs of my inspiration.

It does, however, mean I have to disentangle us from Kuru's deft continuity annhilation.

So to speak.

Would you, Rim, pleeeeease?!

*Esty gives him a look that's a heart-melting combination of puppy and Merisu

I would roll up my sleeves and do it myself, if necessary, yet I'd much prefer that someone else take on the task of cleaning up Kuru's mess!

Nice though your molten-canine-look is, Princess, I'll do it for your Merisu side

I'll have a peek this afternoon, and see what new ridiculousness I can foist upon you all.

whew!

Thanks for a wonderful post, Rim! You managed to get the Mixed-Nuts-Ship out of their predicament, though with a bit of the usual mayhem and destruction at the end. (The next poster should be able to find some means of getting them back to their ship, I'm sure.) There are some great laughs in your post, which I shall not count up for various reasons, one of which is the notion of family-friendly posting... I must admit, though, you do have me curious about the "scene that can only be described by someone with the willpower to do it". Oh, and how ingenious to come up with the idea of a ring that changes everyone's personalities!!

At any rate, I am very glad that you jumped into the breach (or was it onto the beach?) to post. Now who'll be next? Thena, who has been working on a post, appears to have fallen prey to real life and hasn't been around lately. Mith, Diamond, and Lush would be the next obvious choices, since it's been about six weeks since their last posts. Game, any of you?

That was family-friendly! Pah! Anyhoo, it transferred minds to correct bodies, and that's what was needed

It would be good to see a little more life in the thread.

I would also like to commend Rimbaud for his efforts, since I am unable to bestow reputation to him at this particular moment. I liked the ADD and AGE parts particularly.
