Post #12, by Little Yoshi

Tim/Little Yoshi was the younger brother of the much better known, freshly minted forum admin Chris, who we'll meet shortly.

Most heads turned to see an odd Yoshi-shaped vehicle riding through the water coming toward Eagleland. Some were nervous that Nntendo was coming to examine the island, until a Starmen Net flag was un-ravled on the top.

Did anyone ever make a Starmen.Net flag? It feels like someone should have, but I can't recall one. The Syndicate has one, of course... but it's secret.

"Now how do I dock this thing?" Little Yoshi, or humanly known as Tim, wondered.

He's only half human, you see.

He decided he would activate the spring-out-of-the-water system, land in some pond(hoping there was one), activate Security System 00, disembark, and find the party.

He activated the spring-out-of-the-water sytem, and, what misfortune! Not a single pond or lake on Eagleland!
"Ummm..." He thought franticaly. He remembered from his Crash of Rhinos Magic card "...if there is no way, it will make a way." He quickly scanned the area for an area without animals, and fired a defensive laser at it, creating a small body of water which luckly didn't spread across the island. he landed in it, and found the party nearby.

That's one hell of a laser, that's able to summon water out of the air and fill a crater with it. Instantaneously. I'd definitely keep that baby close at hand for the rest of the story, if I were him.

"Hello all!" He yelled, activated security system 00 on the Yoshi vehicle, and continued,"Hey, where are we all gonna sleep?"

I dunno. Maybe on the island somewhere? Hey, if someone thinks to bring some inflatable rafts, your laser can create us a swimming pool and we can sleep floating on the rafts!

At his home in Winnipeg MB, Cyan683 was just finishing packing for his trip to Eagleland. After stowing his extra set of Genji armour, and his reading material, He equiped his Genji Armour, and his Sky Render and went outside. "X-Zone!" shouted Cyan, and a large black portal materialized in front of him. Cyan entered the portal and navigated his way to Eagleland. After a few minutes, Cyan exited another portal, and set foot for the first time, on Eagleland.

I'm not sure Cyan quite understands how X-Zone works. It's kind of a one way ticket. That's why traditionally you'd need to be f---ed up in the head (read: confused) to case X-Zone on yourself.

Cyan made his way over to Anthadd and greeted him with his usual greeting of a hearty "Good day!". Seeing that the party was still just beginning, Cyan then headed over to the nearest place of lodging, where he found his room, and put his things away.

Hope Tim's taking notes. That's the beauty of IF, really: Just name your problem and the next poster will solve it! Usually while introducing a much worse problem, but still. Don't be whiny about it.

Having rid himself of his bag, Cyan returned to the beach to wait for the other partiers, and in particular, the other Canadians.

Cyan had/has a serious Canadian patriotism complex. Although if I recall correctly it was Anthadd who finally flipped out after two or three months of me incessantly making snide references to how all Canadians live in igloos.
