I’m a resident new to New Babbage, and a little unique physically compared to you. Basically I’m you 100,000 years ago, when we were at the limit of our tchnology and power.
A scientist and explorer is what I am, and part of failed Time Travel experiment. It failed because I ddin’t travel in time, but hit a parallel world wormhole which dumped me here. While I need to find out how to get back, I need to live here as you would expect me too.
I do find humans to be a retro grade step in evolution, I found you can’t even peel bananas with your feet now, shame. You’ll find me dancing on, or with, a barrel organ as you would expect me to do while watching for suitable technology to steal to get me home.
I found a steamboat which will become a part of the needed technology, at least the seat is comfortable and I can steer with my feet while eating a banana. I also have a needed power supply in my home. Now to teach you how to add corect punctuation to Oook.
Welcome to New Babbage, Mr. Wyrmmonkey. Since we have a number of non-human residents already, I’m sure a monkey will ruffle no feathers, or rub anyone’s fur up the wrong way.
Thank you Miss Psaltery, I look forward to meeting others too, human or otherwise. Can any of these other creatures unwrap bananas with their feet? we regard it as a mark of civilisation.
Several hours of concentration later in the back of the fruit warehouse…..
Yes, i can, errrr……. course, it depends if yer want the inside of the banana fer anything after, but skin an inside definatly seperate from each other….. Banana smoothy, anyone?
It’s simple to remember young urchin, inside is most nutritious, outside is most mischievious. I hope I’m not leading you into new ideas for mischief, oh dear.
There is a baby spider monkey running around town every now and then. I’m sure he can manage the banana trick, but I’ve never witnessed it myself.
Welcome to New Babbage, sir.
That may be my diguiseMiss Ginsberg, I also appear as a baby Spider monkey to throw others off my trail especially when looking for new technology- or fresh bananas.
Welcome to New-Babbage! Yay!
I’m Avariel Falcon, your local friendly clockwork unicorn, I run the power station in Clockhaven.
I hear that you are in need of a power source for various scientific experiments?
Certainly I can help with that requirement! I can send some clockwork down to your laboratory at your convenience to connect your equipment to the aetheric power network!
I also hear that you like banannas, we get shipments in through the portal each week by aetheric post so I can send a few of those your way as well. *nods*
A clockwork unicorn, unique indeed. I look forward to working with you, power is needed for the machinery, and bananas for myself. Help is most appreciated.
That’s a very nice picture. I had to look closely to see you, but there you are, the lord of all you survey!
Yes, my apologies for the rough landing on the roof, my home is now securely embedded in New Babbage.
::glances down to his oversized apelike feet:: Maybe.. But bananas are a bit small.. I can, however, crack open coconuts with them. And welcome to town!
*quietly puts a helmet on her coconut*
Good thinking Miss Wells, if it doesn’t protect your coconut you may yet get all the pieces back.
Uh oh, makes note to be polite to Yang Moreau, thank you for the welcome. I have met some interesting residents here, but nothing borrowed has Yang moreau on it.
I like monkeys. Where do you live?
Are you the Morlock who tried to eat me? I escaped on my airship, I live in the sky at the Port District.
See you tonight yummy monkey
*prods the Morlock with her pointy*
I would recommend leaving the small furry residents of this fair city uneaten as they are under the protection of… The Dark Unicorn of New-Babbage!
*does the dramatic Dark Unicorn of New-Babbage thing*
I live under your station – look out
Uh oh, will deep freeze some bananas and concuss you with em, will have to get an ammo belt and stock up on them. Or maybe stilts will work? but if all else fails I’ll sing, I’m not usually that cruel but…..
Thank You Miss Falcon, I’m in awe of the Dark Unicorn of New Babbage thing .
