All these puns are making me a little green around the O'gills, and quite Frankly are earning my Eire.

Poor Monica...looks like the bikini string had already started melting before Euryale could thaw her out...and her brain seems to be a bit melty too. :( I wonder how quickly she'll snap out of this.

I suspect the only "cure" for her issue is a remedy from a book you can only find at a certain library.

It looks like more than the crazy is loose. :lol:

Regarding the string I'm pretty sure the care instruction on the laundry tag should read, "Do not freeze dry." Even after being thawed, it's likely it was broken down by the drastic changes in temperature. The stress on that particular string led it to be the first to go.

Regarding her being confused, well brain freeze only affects a remarkably small protion of you.
COMPLETE brain/body freeze on the other hand should require a significant amount of time to recover.

Apparently, yes.

well I think that pablo has caught the moment that the string has *just* pinged off... another second, and her attributes would fall to their normal resting position.. 8-) 8-)

Monica on the rocks?, nah to easy... yeah i got nothing also..
How about she's shaken but not stirred?
dont know about shaken, but i think she will need depth charged of air to bring her Slowly back from being incoherent depending on how she was fast she was unfrozen due being in a warm place, i suspect Euryal flash froze her so fast that the oxygen discharged and she couldn't breath during the flash frozen,so i would have to say with drinking analogy we can come up would be in fact..

Pretty much, yeah. Monica is acting pretty darn Tzadle-bay right now.

I think that recent history shows us that "Monica on the rocks" requires a different chaser.

Dr Custard??? She see's Dr Custard when looking at Shelly??? Emergency Poit to the nearest MRI scanner, STAT !
She is in serious distress here!!

I can't tell which way she is facing in relationship to the ocean, which is the direction ocean breezes come from.
So there is only one direction she can face safely.

Given M's cup size, Gravity doesn't have a chance unless she bends forward. If needed Shelly can do a "Being Erica" and help preserve Monica's dignity.

Finally, I thought Gorgon's turned you to stone.

Well, Euryale's ice-gaze has been established for awhile in the story. Paul had a comment once, now hidden, where only Medusa had the stone gaze. Third sister Stheno turns people to sand. According to the Horse's Mouth.

TALK TO THE SAND.

Who was opining that the Crimson Mantis was the villain, and Dr Custard, the hero? I don't think the crew has been let in on this part of Monica's interior life.

I suppose this means her brains and bosom are still thawing out. Or maybe she's a very special kind of dead drunk, and the Lethe is a river of frosty honey mead.
