Just when I thought, perhaps I should go to Eggie's and learn how to moon about properly, Martin brings Addy chips and allows me to share.

The universe, the cosmos, the whole great glass bubble will be fine, so long as there are chips.

chips, addison, martin

I am now picturing you buying one of Chazzers' mechanical animal toys and calling it "Chips."

amelia_r2a July 22 2008, 13:32:05 UTC

No, no, I would make my own.

Except it would come out looking more like a watch.

In fact, it would probably just be a watch.

If only we could make an engine that worked in Amber that created proper Fish 'n' Chips.

So, whereas some filks work in clay and always make an ashtray, no matter what they intended...you always make watches?

amelia_r2a July 22 2008, 14:08:37 UTC

Not entirely. I think it has more to do with the Begman toy aesthetic. Combat toys hold nothing to a finely made watch that one can take apart and put back together.

As the Center of the Known Universe and the Greatest Power Known, you would expect it to provide One Solitary Sad Little Chip Shoppe. But no. Not a single chip. The lack of proper deep frying is disturbing.

But lo, Martin did bring us chips, even if they were only warm, and the packet of vinegar was small. The Pattern has finally brought forth something Good and Worthwhile, and they are chips.

Thinking of it, I believe it is for the greater good that there is no full chip shoppe. It wouldn't do for the Chantrises and Dares to go to riot in the streets over who gets to use the spare news paper.

The answer there is "Benedict" because he needs to do the Daily Crossword.

amelia_r2a July 22 2008, 15:28:18 UTC

Precisely my concern. What is the point of proper chips if one cannot wrap them in news paper. Until we have some way of providing Benedict with his crossword puzzle all the technology in the world will not benefit us.

Blast it!

You know, with all the death and terror and fear and pain and all, I didn't get any chips-in-paper on the last Begma trip.

Which I only realized since you mentioned it.

...And now I have a horrible case of the uncurable munchies!

I propose we may a stop before we go to face the next unknowable creature.
