    It seems that our Unity has a rather conflicted relationship with conflict resolution. On the one hand, she doesn’t cause it. On the other, she thinks there’s oddly sexy about it.

    Maybe Sweetheart’s worried that Unity will want to stay here. And, really, why wouldn’t she?

      Yes, but would they want to have her? I figure a maximum of a fortnight before the train goes off the tracks if she’s allowed to run loose and unsupervised…

        I understand that UNITY has an unparalleled capacity for mayhem at an individual level, but when compared to an entire ship of Madboys? I think St. Charlie can take whatever she can throw at it. Even if it’s St. Charlie she throws.

    Just thought… different universe entirely, but a certain Jobe Wilkins would no doubt feel at home there… 😀

      Congratulations. You made me do a spit take with my soda. And Jobe Wilkins would have his/her flesh-eating flukeworms much better trained. 🙂

        I don’t think it’s a matter of the flukeworms not being well-trained, so much as letting people know to move to one side if they don’t want to get eaten.

    (TUNE: “I’d Like To Teach The World To Sing”, The Hillside Singers)

    I’d like to ride upon a train
    That’s hidden underground,
    Where crazy things like cyborg wings
    And zombies can be found!
    I’d like to hug the scientists,
    They’re mad, without a doubt!
    Punch time and space right in the face
    And turn ’em inside-out!

     It’s a crazy train!
     And it’s so friggin’ cool!
     It makes Unity drool!
     It’s a crazy train!

    I’d like to have a look around
    While waiting for G.O.D.O.T. …
    They’re all insane aboard this train
    (Except for us, you know)
    Where giant flatworms run amok,
    While going, “Gnar gnar gnar …”
    And ev’ry day, they eat their way
    Right through the dining car!

     It’s a crazy train!
     Where the worms eat your face!
     It’s an int’resting place!
     It’s a crazy train!

    I’d like to live aboard this train,
    And sing this happy song!
    Where beast and man are asking, “Can
    We all just get along?”
    Where Unity can find a friend,
    But Tip can’t find a girl!
    And Ginny Lee will drink sangi-a
    ‘Til she starts to hurl!

     It’s a crazy train!
     Ev’rybody have some
     Coka-Cola with rum!
     It’s a crazy train!

    Sweetheart is apparently just a little miffed by the “anything goes, anything possible” vibe in St. Charlie. It rankles her beauracratic little soul. If she wasn’t a talking dog, she wouldn’t be within a hundred miles of the place. (If St. Charlie finds a way to turn her human, she’d run to the nearest gov’t office, laughing all the way.)

      So you’re saying there’s a lot of zombies in Canada?

        No, but there sure are a lot of giant flesh-eating fluke worms.

    Don’t be fooled, Unity. This momentary peace and quiet is only a fluke!

    Because the only thing better than flesh-eating flukeworms is GIANT flesh-eating flukeworms.

      Hmm… “Giant Flesh-Eating Flukeworms” sounds like a good name for a rock band…
