Shadows of Dooooom! – part 4
I think when I was younger a castle with a retro futuristic lab would have bothered me as nonsensical. Now I just think it’s awesome.
The Flame-ingo Thrower I think is powered by heartburn inducing tomato sauce. At least that’s what sets my heart burn racing.

Let me guess, are the researchers modeled after friends of yours?
Something cheaper to slay shadows… maybe wooden stakes slathered with pitch and set on fire?

Also, I thought the flame-ingo might be powered the way a bombardier beetle is, by mixing two chemical reactants.

Lars – actually, no the scientists aren’t based on friends the way many of the flag artists are. I don’t have any scientist friends. 🙁
Maybe the flame-ingo is powered by a chimerical reaction?

Maybe they could butter the king up by getting him a flagmingo.

Somehow castles with labs don’t bother me at all, even though I’m usually a stickler for this sort of thing. I guess it would have bothered me in a historical setting? But in fantasy it just works, especially in such a whimsical sort of fantasy.
I guess I just associate castles with mad scientists on some level.

Is it a toxic bee shooter? Or is it a…BEE-BEE GUN!?!

Das: I think a dalmatian would fit the tone of the story better.
