[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Byron's not grumpy! He's just opinionated. And needy. And the sweetest gray kitty cat ever.

Help! I need tag-line help! Not a tag-line for here, tho':

I'm putting the finishing touches on Steampunk Tales #2 and it occurs to me that I need tag lines for the in-application story index. Could each of you send me a brief one sentence "tag line" that I can use for the index? Something like, "Anarcho-Marxist agitator Jane Sallow leads a revolution against the clockwork world."

I was thinking of something like "Gothic cupcake Jillian is still searching for a time machine and a personal assistant". What do you folks think?

Seems like it could be steampunkier.

Jillian is still searching for aviatrix goggles in pink and black striped satin. You may reach her via pneumatic tube.

Hmmm. I'm not going to mention goggles, because I kind of snark about them in the course of the story.

"Cupcake Goth Jillian is still searching for a time machine, thus allowing her to shop for boots throughout the ages." Yes? No?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Pete's suggestion:

"Cupcake Goth Jillian is still searching for a time machine from a reputable vendor".

Can 'time machine' be made steampunkier? Like, say, "chronological locomotive'?

The alt-text made me laugh and laugh.

I KNOW!

Jilli, how about Mechanical Personal Assistant?

Maybe call it Personal Assistant Automaton?

Oh yeah! Chronocomotive!
