In which Marilyn confronts the Inner Circle of the Secret Legion. She positions herself with her back to the fireplace, and with a picture of the Dowager Empress at her elbow. Speaking nervously at first, but with increasing authority, she makes her demands. “You have left me without any form of logistic support. I have no supplies, no food or ammunition, no replacements, no gasoline for my tanks, and communications constantly fail. My temporal grinders are down to their nubs, I barely have enough fusion power to reach the end of the episode, the Reality Generators fail, the Mugwumps revert to loathsome originality, and the towers do not open fire. I have to warn you if this situation is permitted to continue, I will have no option but to switch my allegiance to The Dionysian Federation, and you all know what that would mean.”
The ultimatum causes uproar. The Inner Circle of the Secret Legion vocally protests. “Blonde Goddess, such a realignment would fly in the face of everything you stand for.”
At this, Marilyn’s expression is bleak. “Gentlemen, you have no idea what I might stand for.”

Hmm, have you been watching too many old episodes of Star Trek or something? No food,no supplies or ammunition...and Mugwumps...Dionysian Federation...
are you okay?
I'm just fine. Marilyn's adventures do, however, take her to some odd places, but Star Trek? (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)
now, this one was really good.
my salute to the dionysian fed.
Agreed - hurrah for the Dionysians and their Fed. But does this mean that Marilyn is currently hanging out with the Apollonians and their ghastly crew? She doesn't strike me as that sort of gal at all. "You all know what that would mean" - Lord, it makes me tingle all over.
In passing, I so sympathise with Marilyn's aside that her temporal grinders are down to their nubs. It's been that sort of afternoon so far.
you`ve still got it chief
Can't wait for episode 666.
