Re: All Sorts of Music 2016-01-19
We see the dialog say "non-paras", but they probably said something equivalent to "muggles". Do the paras plan on ever 'coming out'? (Don't know how that would work. Was that mentioned in the Harry Potter books as to why that would be unwise?) A general failure of the World Grid...

Re: All Sorts of Music 2016-01-19
Humans have a pretty gnarly xenophobic streak. They also can breed like Weasley rabbits and have access to world-breaking bombs that eternally poison the surrounding countryside. It is generally unwise to poke humans with a stick. a) Ahem. Chimera. b) "It is generally unwise to poke humans wit...

Re: Got This 2015-01-29
Phrases that should terrify:
From a 2nd Lieutenant: "In my experience..."
From a teenage para: "I'm gonna put my book smarts to work!"
Accent-wise, is Atsali channeling Euryale?

Re: Not A Problem 2015-01-16
If we're really entering the Scooby-zone, then the obvious addition to this little mystery-solving team is Dietzel, subverting the Scooby role into the Responsible Adult. (I mean, looking back on things with my head tilted just-so, it's entirely clear that he has been Monica's MIB handler at least a...

Re: Not A Problem 2015-01-16
Speaking of shadows, I find it interesting to see just how connected Tsillah is to her shadow: step on my foot, and I'll feel it; step on my shadow, and I won't even know... Not so with Tsillah. She apparently has a very direct connection with her shadow: the closed left eye and the star next to th...

Re: Did You Hear That 2015-01-07
From Phix, or a handful of others, I would have pegged this as Xanatos-level reverse psychology... But this... this just seems like Atsali taking soaring flights of assumption. I wouldn't call it Xanatos level. As Dave points out, this is just an episode of 'How to train your teenager'. Can Phix lo...

DAMN!!! And here thought we were going to engage in mindless teen dating rituals... oh well, this sounds like it has similar catastrophic potential... I'm pretty sure that, in the Wapsiverse, and for paras, this qualifies as a mindless dating ritual. And if Grandma and her sidekick are along, it's ...

Re: First Introductory Thread
Hi Bosses, I've been reading Wapsi for years (9 or so, off and on) and have occasionally appeared in both original and facebook comment streams (found some of my old ones during my latest deep dive). Been meaning to get around to posting here as I've read more, especially as we seem to be kicking ov...

Conflicting Twin Cities.
I'm currently having the most wonderful time balancing mental images of Minneapolis/St Paul between the Wapsiverse and John Sandford's "Prey" novels. Imagine, if you will, the aftermath of Bud's 'throwing golf balls at the sun' episode where the MIB have covered it up with "kids playi...

Re: Meet Tomorrow 2014-12-30
I gotta go with lake_wrangler, below. The Monica vibe here is powerful, even without the 8-ball. Or perhaps, it's not so much the Monica thing from Atsali, but the Kevin reaction from Jacob.oldmanmickey wrote:And here we see the first proud graduate of aunt shellys school of how to handle men.
