Dramatic SFB: The Lizard's Tale

[joshua s]

Nice way to start the morning spit out my coffee laughing so hard.

Adding a tail to a robot wouldn’t serve any practical purpose other than to tuck it away running from that DN.

It had been a trying quarter for the Great Green Gorn. It started out with Mr. Gorntastic losing the support of his last remaining allies in the government. And, he couldn’t blame them really. He accepted that it was partially his fault. He’d invited them to grand party on Magrathea with promises of luxury and pleasures rarely seen in the Gorn empire.

But mostly he blamed his fleet captains! After all, it was their job to procure and deliver prophylactics, blow, cheese, and crackers and they couldn’t even do that! His guests were left wandering around an empty ball room with young female models that they could do little more with than grab their tails! Not that Mr. Gorntastic saw anything wrong with that, it’s just that he, and they, were expecting so much more!

With the loss of his last remaining supporters, a vote of ‘No Confidence’ in his leadership passed in Congress. This led to the equivalent of a government shut down while the Great Green Gorn empire ushered out Mr. Gorntastic from his leadership position and ordered an off cycle election to find his successor.

There were many entrants into the election for reptiles to try and gain the title of GGG Emperor, but the vote eventually went to Mr. Bossk who ran a campaign based on ‘Make the Great Green Gorn Great again… and Green again”. Well, that would have been his campaign slogan if he could have fit it all on the front of a baseball cap. Mr. Bossk’s campaign eventually had to settle for the slogan, “WE’RE NOT YELLOW, mostly”. The last little bit was required based in the Gorn’s ‘Truth in Advertising’ law.

Of course, with new leadership comes a new attitude, especially when dealing with galactic neighbors. So far, the Paravian Jagdstaffel were decent neighbors despite Mr. Bossk villainizing them in his campaign speeches and insisting that they would pay for the Great Green Gorn’s new galactic shield that Mr. Bossk was promising. That might be why they were having an issue on their border with some kind of hostages, or something. Considering they were hostages out on the empire's border, Mr. Bossk didn't really care. After all, it wasn't him who was in that situation!  (Greg, this one is your call (scenario 2484). I can retreat if you’d rather have this one.)

Then there were the Andromedans. The long-time pain in the tail that the previous administrations were unable to address. In the first incident that came to Mr. Bossk's attention, his fleet and an Andromedan fleet were trying to mine crystals near a black hole (Scenario 2490). Mr. Bossk ordered his captain to call the Andromedan some derogatory names which was enough to send the Andro crying with his tail between his legs which led Mr. Bossk to wonder, “Do Andro’s have tails?”

The second encounter was going to be a little tougher (more tough?). The Andros were running a convoy close to the border. No telling what kind of nefarious intentions they had with that convoy. Mr. Bossk dispatched a fleet to investigate. But, no matter how many names they were called, the Andros would not allow the Gorn to board the freighters for an 'inspection'. That means they could only be transporting something good! (Scenario 2491: I’m good with tomorrow, Josh. Let me know what time works for you. I’m also free most of this week, if another time/date is needed.)

The only other disturbance that Mr. Bossk needed to address this quarter was with his yellow cousins. They were infringing (once again) on GGG territory! This would not be tolerated! It was now time to prove that the Great Green Gorn truly were great, and green, and Gorn!  (Scenario 2497: Let me know what you want to do with this Roch. I’m available for the rest of this week.)
