The ancient makeout ritual

A Wombat

I'm not saying that referring to yourself in the third person with all your titles will give you a PhD.

FancyShark

The necklace is filled with grenades

A Wombat

I'm just saying I don't think we can rule out that's why it happens in the Dornverse.

FlippantSausage

Wow she made that in three or four day........oh that was for someone else originally.....

Brendanonymous

The Orville, to its credit, drops so much 20/21st c. pop culture they call out its richness and then make a random 23rd c. reference to "Zorgo the jazz-o-sax player."

A Wombat

Because honestly, this schmuck?

He bought that PhD.

With daddy's money.

FancyShark

He's tenured!

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

This necklace is a big departure from this tribes usual dick-based jewellry

gellaho

"Peace out, bitches"

A Wombat

Is there a reason he didn't take her with him? Besides the obvious?

Like, he killed her husband and then claimed her in a way that no one else will want to have her because she belongs to God.

FancyShark

She had sex with him. Her purpose is complete.

A Wombat

Her life is probably going to suck from this point on.

LyraV 42Dukes

Yeah but then he'd have to like...talk to her and learn about her and stuff.

FlippantSausage

Miller thought " Miller Time continues unabated, its for everyone."

A Wombat

You're right, that's ridiculous.

gellaho

You know, lemon pudding crust. We're all familiar with that

Brendanonymous

Maybe in their society she's now a holy relic and all the men will line up until her blessed vagina knows its deserved holy pleasure.

A Wombat

I'm not sure that's not worse, but sure.

Brendanonymous

Hi, I'm Ice Honey Love, anime artist. Draw the above with your kids using circles and tubes.

FancyShark

Yeah, I've tried that line

A Wombat

So... where's Dorn from?

FancyShark

Murica

FlippantSausage

Dornopolis, circa 3040

gellaho

Miller steadfastly refuses to acknowledge his reality

A Wombat

Right. Is... is lemon pudding served with a hard crust in some part of this country I'm not aware of?

FancyShark

The analogies in this book are amazing

Brendanonymous

He got langoliered!

A Wombat

OH NO.

HIS BOOK IS BEING INVADED BY A MUCH BETTER AUTHOR'S BOOK.

FancyShark

YES!

THE TSUNAMI WAS WAITING FOR HIM!

FlippantSausage

"FREE TRIP TO TAHITI! MILLER TIME BITCHESSSSS!"

gellaho

This exact same thing happened before, but Miller is befuddled

FancyShark

"Huh. Weather."

LyraV 42Dukes

I enjoy that he shouted 'Home free!' after time freezing and the ominous radio message.

FlippantSausage

"There's no possible logical way this could happen twice. So it's obviously not happening."

gellaho

Tsunami: The Revenge

A Wombat

I would have thought short term memory a vital quality in someone flying a plane.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

Did the author that wrote this part read the previous storm scene?

FancyShark

YEEEEESSSSSSS

FlippantSausage

Listening skills too.

A Wombat

Hang on.

Guys, I have it.

We've been wrong all this time.

The storm is the hero.

gellaho

Quite the gamble

FancyShark

Megalodons, I implore you: go for the buzzing thing just above the water!

gellaho

"CRA-ACK!" Went the big guns of the storm

FlippantSausage

I dont think "Fly real low" is the best idea for dealing with bad weather but then again, I'm not a qualified pilot.

A Wombat

Jump, sharks!

Brendanonymous

I just got here, and all I know about Miller is he murdered the only other outsider, seduced a woman, then abandoned her, taking with him the device keeping their culture alive. From this point in the story he is the villain.

A Wombat

Jump like you never jumped before!

FancyShark

You're caught up then

gellaho

Seems legit

FlippantSausage

Enjoy Neptunes cold embrace, Miller!

FancyShark

Tsunami's excited because it was hoping to see Cook again

FlippantSausage

In before he freezes time and walks to Tahiti.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

'bellowed' was an odd choice of word here

gellaho

What luck

A Wombat

I think it works.

Other dumb animals bellow.

FlippantSausage

It's more manly than "screamed girlishly"

FancyShark

The vehicles are lined up to watch him crash

A Wombat

Awww, the thief, murderer and seducer is going to make it.

Our hero, boys and girls.

gellaho

It did. The Artifact. And it was.

A Wombat

Ow.

If it was that heavy, I would think he'd have secured it better.

gellaho

For the people who missed last time, the first thing Yuki did upon meeting Miller was try to fuck him in Pirate's house

A Wombat

On his tiny plane.

A Wombat

Oh good.

FlippantSausage

To be fair I think it could probably increase it's weight as it likes.

A Wombat

I withdraw the charge.

FlippantSausage

That artifact is trying to fuck him up.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

Should have got some bungee cords at the gas station he topped his plane off at

gellaho

They were also horrifically sacrificing people to the artifact, so they're probably better off without it

FancyShark

The Idiot and The Doomsday Device, this Fall on CBS

Brendanonymous

Klingons only have one means of expression. This character has Dornlungs.

A Wombat

I mean, I guess.

FlippantSausage

Hey a communal liquification is what brings a village together!

gellaho

Peace out, bitches

FancyShark

Boom-Crunch is a great cereal. Actually better than Lucky Charms

Brendanonymous

The artifact is God's clitoris, and it is wrathful at Dorn's neglect.

A Wombat

On the other hand, I'm pretty sure that now the artifact is in his hands, we're all much worse off.

So swings and roundabouts.

gellaho

This better be good, Dorn-Hemingway-Lindsay

FancyShark

"Surprise! Happy Birthday!"

A Wombat

A unicorn.

If it's not at least a unicorn, I will be disappointed.

FlippantSausage

Miller Time. Miller Time is what occurred.

FancyShark

A creature wearing the faces of all the dead Arab children he killed appears and gives him a kiss

A Wombat

That is the level of amazement I expect from you now, Dorn.

gellaho

Oh, reality flickered at the end of this. Not the half-dozen times it hit the ground before that

A Wombat

This would beat a unicorn.

gellaho

Everything that happened before reality flickering was perfectly reasonable

FancyShark

Idea: the thing the writers never had, yet also had too many of

A Wombat

Nope. The artifact doing what we were told it can and would do is not unicorn level.

FlippantSausage

It sounds like the authors were trying to convey "time is resetting" but got confused by a passing child with a ball and did "bouncing" instead.

LyraV 42Dukes

He saw all that from the pilots seat with his head turned through a hole in the back of his plane. Good eyes.

gellaho

Maybe the lightning hitting the Artifact going to fix this

FancyShark

FUCKER!

I mean

FLICKER!

gellaho

Oh, wait. Thirty lightning hits makes it worse

A Wombat

Okay, naked blue people.

I guess that counts.

FancyShark

He did see some Avatar Seanbabys though

FlippantSausage

Naked blue people might have been okay, he can liquify a few of them and fuck the rest.

gellaho

Ahuh

FancyShark

maaaaaan

gellaho

I bet Vaseline paid a lot for this

A Wombat

So, how many drugs was Dorn on?

Brendanonymous

That's just a Yondu. What you describe is a planet of Yonsdu.

A Wombat

Let's take bets.

FancyShark

I want that story more than this one

A Wombat

I knew I wouldn't have to correct your grammar.

Yonsdu is the plural of Yondu.

FancyShark

Yes

LyraV 42Dukes

Because nothing bursts with flavor like dirt.

gellaho

Ah, but the runway is still there. Convenient

FlippantSausage

Got them rich flavor crystals.

A Wombat

Maybe he's developed pica.

And synaesthesia.

FlippantSausage

I keep thinking his plane is fucked, didnt part of it get exploded by lightning?

gellaho

Now time travel? Don't be ridiculous

FancyShark

That's right. Fly right at a group of innocent people in your plane, Miller. Nothing you've done in the past should make you hesitate to do that.

A Wombat

No, that was before the magic.

gellaho

Clearly

FlippantSausage

Well no matter, he's in the future now, hes going to have to fuck a morlock to get out of this jam.

A Wombat

At least two morlocks.

FancyShark

"It doesn't have to be a morlock-"

"Nope. Them's the rules."

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

He also needs to convince some morlocks he's a god

A Wombat

Also, he caused this by tampering with the desert island murder people.

They now rule the universe.

And sacrifice people to Ku.

FancyShark

Airports: They show the future

A Wombat

Still.

Brendanonymous

YOU MANIACS YOU GREW IT UP

A Wombat

He made everything worse for everyone!

Our hero, ladies and gentlemen!

gellaho

It didn't survive multiple falls from great height and multiple lighting strikes? They don't make future space artifacts like they used to

Brendanonymous

Every time I take a return flight I'm going to step off and think, "Clearly he was in the future."

FlippantSausage

Pfffffffft in my day mysterious space artifacts from the future could take a beating, these ones are basically made of sandalwood.

FancyShark

Oh darn. Intergalactic war thing broke.

FlippantSausage

cheap Chinese made space artifact knockoffs.

A Wombat

Well, I knew he was going to fuck this up.

FlippantSausage

Fairs fair, they are likea third of the price of the genuine article.

A Wombat

But not in this exact way.

gellaho

Maybe my seamaps will reveal the clues the crazy future man left

FancyShark

I have to leave for a bit to feed a friend's cats. I hope you're all still sane when I get back.

A Wombat

Never was!

Hahaha

sobbing

gellaho

Suddenly, the hunter

FlippantSausage

Someplace "odd people could do their business without attracting attention"............so hes going to Portland?

CENTAUR! CENTAUR!

CMON CENTAUR!

Brendanonymous

What year is this book? The state of infrastructure, he might have just been gone a week.

gellaho

Miller tries to get out of saving this woman

FancyShark

1997

Brendanonymous

gasp

our TREKKIEST YEAR

FlippantSausage

Miller if you hear screams at fraternity parties that does not mean the screaming is not a bad sign.

Miller, I know its 1997 and all but we knew what screams meant back then.

gellaho

Come on, man, act casual around the screaming woman. Gotta be cool

A Wombat

I don't know

His track record with saving things and people isn't great.

Brendanonymous

I can appreciate he's thinking logically.

It will kill him.

A Wombat

This woman may end up struck by lightning fifty times.

And then explode.

FlippantSausage

He should have left logic in Yukis vag where it belongs, hes in Time War territory now.

gellaho

Check the redhead box

FlippantSausage

Shits going down and theres no time for logic!

Sweet! Future Celts!

And a redhead!

A Wombat

There are all sorts of reasons for people to be painted blue.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

The collective noun for a group of men is a clot, apparently

Brendanonymous

Why even try to get home?

FlippantSausage

Could be football fans.

A Wombat

They could be football fans.

gellaho

This is what you call a real Time Blender

A Wombat

Oh.

FlippantSausage

Fuck yeah this book got awesome!

Time Samurai!

A Wombat

He's on the Deadliest Warrior set.

Okay.

Brendanonymous

The Artifact only cultivates warriors from time.

A Wombat

Next, vikings.

Brendanonymous

It's building a time army

A Wombat

Vs ninjas.

FlippantSausage

TIME VIKINGS!

Brendanonymous

Yeah, Vikings or Spartans

gellaho

"Hey, she's your problem now"

A Wombat

Celts in blue warpaint.

FlippantSausage

Theres worse problems to have than a sexy redheaded Celtic lady.

LyraV 42Dukes

Does she get clothes this time?

A Wombat

Well known for speaking Latin.

Famous for it.

Brendanonymous

Luxe redhead is the best housewarming gift.

A Wombat

No.

She's just going to be naked.

You know the drill.

FlippantSausage

Maybe a torc and a smile.

gellaho

Apparently, Miller decides that one of the samurai is "The Samurai"

gellaho

She's got a robe. Better than the paint the decapitated dude was rocking

Brendanonymous

Oh shit, that means he owns the redhead now.

FlippantSausage

I call bullshit, this samurai is INAUTHENTIC Mr. Dorn! He would have used a bow or a spear from horseback!

A Wombat

That is how redhead ownership is transferred.

Brendanonymous

She was held in trust until the Celt turned 18 (kills)

A Wombat

We all know that.

LyraV 42Dukes

Until we get the knives out.

gellaho

Apparently Miller is flying Wonder Woman's invisible jet

A Wombat

In fairness, there's no reason why they would want to get involved with Miller.

gellaho

Samurai fucking love Hulk Hogan mustaches

FlippantSausage

Samurai are notoriously unappreciative of sexy redheads.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

He hung the moustache from the saddle?

A Wombat

Maybe cultural osmosis has turned the samurai into head hunters.

And the Celts now recite poetry.

FlippantSausage

Nah you gotta bring the taisho the heads of the warriors you kill so you can properly be rewarded.

gellaho

Time for revenge magic

FlippantSausage

Its like pokemon.

But for decapitation.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

the ones with moustaches count double

gellaho

Revenge magic is ineffective

A Wombat

Okay, so now it's a fantasy story.

FlippantSausage

You want a head with a nice stache or a good beard for extra grabby handles.

A Wombat

... So, uh.

This is still Tahiti right?

So far as we know?

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

Future Tahiti, with celts and samurai

FlippantSausage

Yeah some Pacific island at least.

Famous haunts of Celts and samurai.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

all we know about the samurai is that they prize moustached heads

A Wombat

Tahiti isn't exactly a big place. Where are all these warring iron age tribes living?

gellaho

The future Tahitian redheaded celtic witch is taking the random appearance of a black archeologist well

A Wombat

Also not readily available on Tahiti? Iron.

LyraV 42Dukes

We all know he manifests gasoline when he needs it so there's no worry there.

A Wombat

Metal in general, really.

I smell shenanigans.

gellaho

Hold up, are you trying to tell me something about this doesn't make sense?

Hmmmmmmm, I don't know

FlippantSausage

It is the future so they've probably repurposed stuff?

A Wombat

Look it's just a minor point.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

It all seemed so plausible up until now

A Wombat

I'm sure he'll put it all back together.

FlippantSausage

Im pretty sure when the artifact broke so did like all of time and space.

gellaho

I'm sure the burning gasoline would have barely affected him, sure

FlippantSausage

Its Civ 5 rules now.

gellaho

Like some kind of Time Blender

Brendanonymous

This woman is the Horse Whisperer of Curses

A Wombat

Can you kill someone with a flare gun?

Like, for real?

gellaho

If they're covered in gasoline

Brendanonymous

Ended the third dimension, scored a hot redhead, net positive day.

FlippantSausage

You can kill someone with just about anything if you apply it enthusiastically.

Brendanonymous

I once killed a man with kindness.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

He knows it's hot enough to burn fuel, he singed his dick with it

gellaho

Or if they roll around in gasoline

FlippantSausage

I tend to prefer hammers, but everyone has their own preferences.

A Wombat

It's not the first time it's come up to me, so I was curious.

gellaho

"WHY ISN'T STOP, DROP, AND ROLL WORKING!!!!!"

LyraV 42Dukes

Remember folks, Miller is no murderer.

FlippantSausage

"SHIGERU IS ON FIRE? HE SCREAMED? SHAMEFUL DISPLAY!"

Please read that in the voice of the Shogun 2 voice over fella.

gellaho

"Oh, my skull"

A Wombat

Yes, that's the appropriate response.

FlippantSausage

She is trying to figure out if hes a sorcerer or a total fuckwit.

gellaho

Green, like the color cats are

A Wombat

If there's one thing we've learned from books, he can be both.

FlippantSausage

"And smacked her palm into the goose egg."

LyraV 42Dukes

Still not like...speaking though.

gellaho

The way she kept running unarmed at Samurai signaled intelligence

Brendanonymous

My cat has yellow-green eyes, which I guess is the hazel of cats

gellaho

She comes from Druidia

FlippantSausage

IS beautiful but SEEMS intelligent.

Shark Puke Fetishist GDC

Funny, she doesn't look Druish.

LyraV 42Dukes

Making a lot of assumptions here Miller.

FlippantSausage

Wow deep Celtic cut there with Mara.

Brendanonymous

Eolas died so that Miller could fuck so that Mara could climax

gellaho

Tony Miller: able to easily identify a torc, unable to recognize the sound of bagpipes

gellaho
FlippantSausage

The ghost writers would have had an aneurism trying to figure out how to spell Niamh or something correctly.

Brendanonymous

Claymoor vs. katana

gellaho

Well, I guess the bagpipes won the day.

FlippantSausage

Good for her talking down to this obvious idiot.

I like her already.

gellaho

Yeah, that's certainly the weirdest thing that's happened

A Wombat

Mara. I give him a C.

Brendanonymous

Oh shit, we found a reverse Hodor.

OPEN THE DOOOOOOOR

FlippantSausage

A Rodoh if you will.

Brendanonymous

Oppidaaaaaaaa

Missed my connection to Tahiti, had a lovely time in Sciretland

gellaho

Samurai hate herbs
