Jun 19, 2011 10:25

{First, a public phone call, filtered from drones.]

Hello again, Mayfield. I've been noticing plenty of new faces around town as of late. Plenty of people with plenty of questions.

Every question has an answer, friends---I can guarantee you that. And I, Edward Nigma, can help you find all of these answers. And more. Now, I'm sure I can already ( Read more... )

... A hole?

[You have five seconds to convince him that this isn't the stupidest idea ever thought up by anyone ever.]

puzzlerprince June 20 2011, 01:14:22 UTC

Indeed, Jonathan.

[Give him some time, you know how much he loves drawing out his schemes.]

You're aware that the ability to "dig to China" is an urban legend, aren't you?

puzzlerprince June 20 2011, 01:48:21 UTC

You'd equate the nature of my schemes to that of a Looney Toons short?

[At a stop sign, Lex will be walk toward the Riddler Mobile.]

We need to talk.

puzzlerprince June 20 2011, 00:23:12 UTC

[Rolling down the window.]

What about?

greatestmanll40 June 20 2011, 01:27:08 UTC

May I join you for a ride?

I can assure you that I am... well.

puzzlerprince June 20 2011, 01:29:21 UTC

If you must.

[You'd best be careful with this car, Lex. It is like his third son here in Mayfield.]

[Edgar's not one to pass up a good riddle, and so he thinks about it for a bit, before responding.]

A hole seems like the likely answer.

That said, if that's meant to be a clue as to the nature of your project, it's rather vague. What good do you intend to achieve with a hole? I assume there's more to it than that, however.

puzzlerprince June 20 2011, 01:25:38 UTC

Far more to it than that, friend. Tell me something. What does one do with holes?

autocrossbowplz June 20 2011, 01:29:58 UTC

Typically? Dig them, and fill them in again, usually with altered contents than what they first contained.

So what do you intend to fill your newly made hole with?

A base of operations, of course. A place in which we can mount a resistance and strike when they least expect us.

[Relax? On her watch? Never. For whatever reason, Charlie felt like Mr. Nigma needed a visit. unLucky for him, Charlie teleports right on into the passenger seat of his car.]

I got it!

[And once he's recovered from that mini-heart attack, he shoots Charlie a glare.]

Don't... don't do that again.

brbgoing2russia June 20 2011, 01:41:52 UTC

[WOW BUDDY YOU SUCK AT DRIVING. Charlie looks like she's almost had her own miniature heart attack. BUT NEVERMIND THAT she has something important to say, so she just blurts it out.]

I figured out your [dumb] riddle!

[Seriously, he needs to put some kind of tracker on you guys.]

My plan isn't nearly that idiotic.

...you know Susan?

puzzlerprince June 23 2011, 03:52:52 UTC

She's my assigned wife, yes. [His body tenses up when she begins to speak about her, but he manages to relax slightly when she drops the subject.] It's fine. Don't worry about it.

[Eddie drops his supplies to the ground and leans back against the car.]

This town makes it difficult not to be in a bad mood. It's nothing personal. [Though he still has plenty of issues with a certain twin brother of hers...]

You'd be willing to help? You mean that?
