      At first I thought Anthony Daniels, but you’re right–John Cleese would work better.

      Although Ian McKellen might work too, come to think of it…

    What does he mean by petit fours?

      Little tiny snack cakes.

    she thinks she has mental powers, this can only end well.

    Since it’s just his head, and his torso is somewhere else, isn’t he *already* broken?

    Her colleagues at the Institute laughed, laughed!, when she spoke of her mental powers. But now she will Show Them All! ^_~

      “Not only am I an agent of Anasigma, but I’m also a client!”

    If I were Moustachio I’d pretend to keel over, then escape.

      In the World of Skin Horse, it’s kinda hard to tell…

        You do realize that your talking about a talking dog made by a mad scientist who is in love with a nano cyborg zombie female roommate?
        Everyone is at least allowed one moment of instant as reality kicks back in.
        Besides I thought the cross dresser was the sane one?

          I think he’s talking about the woman from the Institute, who has “sane” right in her job description.

            I’m so slow. Only just realised that she was the Institute employee who appeared briefly during Tigerlily’s escape. Presumably it’s the same woman who let Tigerlily out on the work release program back in monochrome days?
            [I’m sorry, these “face” things you fleshlings have really aren’t very distinctive at all.]

            Yes she is.

    (Based on “The Raven”, Edgar Allan Poe)

    Once, within the town of Akron,
    Anasigma’s quick attack run
    Caused the drone to overload and do a faceplant on the floor …
    Doctor used her mental scrambler
    On the robot called Ramshambler,
    But she ends up saying “Damn!” Her
    Psychic blows he’ll just ignore …
    “Tell me, monster! What will work
    Against these mental blocks of yours?”
    “Just small talk and petit fours.”

    I see walnuts in her future… Lots of walnuts. “Dick van Dyke Show” quantities… Extirpation is not a pleasant thing…

    I wonder if Anasigma has problems with agents, er, “going over to the other side”. Spend too much time around madness and you might find it catching.

    At least, that’s how I explain it to others when they ask.

      Would A-Sig actually have a.problem with that, though? I mean, their shoe care standard, time travel experiments, and base full of poison lizards suggests there’s Mad all the way through the upper echelons…

      As it is, they seem perfectly OK with Mad, provided you’re working for them and not complicating the definition of “people” by building more!

    Is there evidence that the woman works for Anasigma or that the Institute is associated with Anasigma? I assumed that Anasigma had just placed the guy there to screw things up, but everything else (including zapping civilians) was standard Institute procedures.

      Yes there is.

    I don’t know what it means that the sentence that made me laugh the most was “Nick, we gotta save Akron!”
