So. Y'know how sometimes things from people's worlds get loose and start causin' all sorts of trouble and the person from that world's the only person who can stop 'em so they've got to tell everybody to stay outta their way 'cause they'll just get hurt?

That's happenin' right now. Nobody panic; there's just a transsexual merman on the prowl. I've

Shivering in my knickers.

[numanstan]

If y'see a very bright light, try to run away. Don't look directly into it.

[is_an_island]

Fine, I'll bite.

How have you fucked up today?

[numanstan]

It's not my fault, honest! I didn't even think of keepin' an eye on him; I was too busy tryin' not to get killed!

[is_an_island]

Why is there a transsexual mermen on the prowl?

And why should is he such a threat that you're our single ray of hope in the bleak situation?

[numanstan]

Well, he's probably lookin' for a boyfriend; that's sorta what he does. And if the guys he's taken react how anybody would... Well, I know they come back, but it'd be nice if they didn't need to be skinned alive, yeah?

[is_an_island]

That's an unusual way to find a boyfriend.

But you didn't answer my other question. How are you going to be a one-man-wonder and rescue them all?

[numanstan]

He still owes me a jump rope contest!

[is_an_island]

What sort of half-arsed idea is that?

You're... honestly going to try and beat him by doing a double-skip?

[numanstan]

Um, yeah. What's wrong with my plan?

[is_an_island]

You think he's going to be so... awed... by your criss-cross that he'll let go of everybody?

[numanstan]

Sure, once I win the bet by out-double dutchin' him!

[is_an_island]

What happens if you lose?

[numanstan]

I won't.

[is_an_island]

Cocky.

Won any championships with your double dutch?

[numanstan]

I've beaten loads of small children, so I think I'm well prepared for this.
