Great Grand-Uncle Schimmelhorn's Toolbox

I would be concerned if a child was partaking in either of those.
Our misleading author didn't say anything about 'partaking'. More, obtaining?

Some kids I'm familiar with are/were not at all impressed by booze, and seemed of the opinion you'd have to be... pretty strange to enjoy consuming it.

Hookers? Some sort of slightly strangely-dressed babysitter? Maybe considered a bit expensive, though...

Of course, Papa S. might have... rather different opinions...
 
Nah, like someone said before me, it's a license to drive, alright... to drive their parents and any other older relatives insane.

To someone who defines themselves by their intellect and the use thereof, the consumption of... well, addictive substances (other than sugar and caffeine) is pretty much anathema.
Or at least, it is to me.
 
I rarely consume anything alcoholic. I don't like the taste of most such beverages. They're too damn bitter IMO. And the ones not bitter? My thought often is "Why would you ruin a good beverage by adding alcohol to it?"

Once in a blue moon I'll drink a Blue Moon, or some other pale wheat ale with a meal. But only one, and only if it's cold.
 
I keep trying to get updates when this updates, yet even though I had this thread watched for OP notifications... I got no emails about, yet it works for other fanfics on this site...

So I unwatched and rewatched with OP notifications in hopes I get the next update email...
 
Ms. Aoyama is from the fanfic Desperately Seeking Ranma.

Her powers are to unintentionally creep everyone out and make everyone else jump to conclusions that are amusing to us, the readers, and to the protagonists of the story.
This is incorrect. The semi-magical disguise that is "Ms Aoyama" includes a ki signature that is deliberately warped such that anyone interacting with her is actively creeped out by the subconscious sensation of utter wrongness that results. It's much worse for people who can sense ki and who actually know and understand what they're perceiving.

Ah, but I didn't want to spoil it too much for anyone who hadn't read that doorstopper.
 
And so Danny's blood pressure continues to rise....
Nice picture. Adding a tie and/or lapel pin (of a globe?) might be worth considering? (Doesn't need to be fully detailed/readable.) Often it is little details that can help...

Why do I have the impression that UNION is gradually expanding until Cauldron becomes public property, and after the collapse of the Protectorate and PRT, it will replace them?
 
I want to know how good Lisa is at doing a (Illya Kuryakin) Russian accent. :)

(U.N.C.L.E. - I guess there was 'Girl from U.N.C.L.E.'... Don't know how many might have seen the 2015 film... (I didn't.) Sounds like it suffered from 'lack of a good story'...)

They could rescue Amy from someone stupid enough to kidnap her?
Kidnapping Panacea is putting a city sized target on your back that's gonna be aimed at by every single cape (hero, villain, independent and rogue) in the entire NE area of US and Canada. There wouldn't be a rathole deep enough to protect the moron that pulled that type of stunt. She's worked on a significant number of parahumans, so they've been directly healed or know someone who has been. Taylor wouldn't need to go rescue her. Agent Gimme could sit back and watch the fireworks as the wrath of god was rained down on the perpetrators.

That is all assuming Amy didn't get her hands on the abductor's first, in which case, they are going to have a very, very short, and possibly final, day.

Who'd do that? This is Brockton Bay, a shortage of 'stupid' is rarely an issue...

There's stupid, and then there is suicidal. While Brockton Bay has a surplus of stupid, very few people appear to have the level of suicidal required to try and kidnap Panacea.
