Title: All hail me!
Post by: Trout on 08 January, 2003, 07:57:16 PM
Your King is bored and has decided to spend some time revelling in the adulation of his subjects.

He calls upon all of you to praise him now!

Pay tribute to your evil monarch or the consequences will be terrible!

ALL HAIL ME - IMMEDIATELY!

Everyone who praises their King will receive a special award - The 2003 Brass Monkeys Weather Campaign Medal. Wear it with pride!

You will also be eligible for my new innovation: conversion into killer cyborgs, beholden to my will and endowed with super-strength and evil slaughter attachments.

Hurry up, plebs! Praise me!

- Your Mighty Ruler

Ah, well, you could be a good example to use, Bou.

Imagine, subjects, the Mecha-Boudicca, all spikey boots, attached chainsaws and huge guns firing broken pieces of pot she's made herself...

Run, terrified, to the hills, for the Mecha-Bou is coming to tear your extremities off and mash them up!

Bribery over.
You should praise me for I am the King!

RESPECT THE EVIL FISH!

Trout thinks that he' got
A super empire but he's not
Got loyal troopers like I do
And he swims in his poo!

He thinks he's flash and stylish
But he's just a slimy fish
He'd be dumped like a shot
If they knew about his chronic fin rot.

A hearty piscine welcome to the Mecha-Bou, terror of the Isles!

Tremble as she approaches, with her spikiness, scariness and sexiness!

For she is the mighty and somehow-still-feminine Mecha-Bou, follower of the great and mighty mutant fish!

ALL HAIL!

Veneration's good for me. I very much enjoyed the insanaquarium. It reminded me of my childhood, with the invading aliens and bizarre fish events.

Fabulous Mech-Bou pic from Eyebrows. Impressive stuff!

And hello, new person.

ALL HAIL ME!

Post by: Bolt-01 on 10 January, 2003, 02:46:08 AM
I am sure I remember reading about the attantion span of a fish being in the region of thirty seconds. That may explain why the Evil one is forgetting about the rest of fish. If it gets any worse he may decide he has to build his empire from scratch. again. And again. etc...

Heh. I was looking through Empire Magazine the other day when I suddenly realized who it was that Trouty reminded me of. Trouty looks like Micheal Moore, with a slightly better haircut and tidied up a bit.
Title: Re: All hail me!
Post by: Trout on 10 January, 2003, 07:46:40 PM
Inclusion of "with a slightly better haircut and tidied up a bit" will not save you from the fishy dungeons, foolish one.

I'm going to have you beaten to a pulp the first chance I get.

Watch your back at the next convention, Ex-Brunt!

FEAR THE FISH FOR HE IS EVIL!

TO ALL THE FOLLOWERS OF KING TROUTMAN:

HE IS A FORMORAN SEA DEVIL!

Can't you see it?
He has even suborned our noble pagan queen with his wily ways, transforming her into a crude mechanical parody of herself, borg stylee!

Let us to arms, and chase the hideous demi-haddock  back into his murky aquatic netherworld!
Title: Re: All hail me!
Post by: Capt.Zeep on 11 January, 2003, 02:15:46 AM
WHAAAAT!!

So it's just me then...

As a pilot and Captain in the Interdimensional Space & Time Navy, I am trained to recognise evil in all its forms.

The nefarious nautical being we see before us is a full cthonic demonic wotsit of the highest order and should be resisted at all costs!

Corporal Bampton! Prepare my triplane!

Boudicca plays a crafty hand!  (Unwilling to relinquish her shiny new mek armour no doubt - how easily you are swayed by mere trinkets from the dark one!)
And the fish thing himself is pretty quiet - swimming scared...?
Title: Re: All hail me!
Post by: JimBob on 11 January, 2003, 05:12:40 PM
 Let me make something clear subjects of the Crown. His Imperial Troutiness allows you to have your pathetic rebellion so as to let the dog see the rabbit. Crack units of the Imperial Security Forces are waiting to take you all in a series of dawn raids. Every morning rebels will be awoken in their cells by recorded messages featuring Gareth Gates reading the complete scripts of Michael Fleisher and Hilary Bobinson. If this does not work to break your will you will be wrapped in chocolate and thrown to Vanessa Feltz who I will have personally starved by not allowing to eat for up to 15 minutes before hand.
Remember the Iron Fin of the Trout is watching.

As Officially Appointed Royal Rebel Rouser, I confirm that this is true.
The King allows only sanctioned rebellions, and only at the allotted times.
Title: Re: All hail me!
Post by: Trout on 13 January, 2003, 07:04:07 PM
The true explanation is that your pathetic attempts at rebellion are pointless, so I'm not really interested.

You bunch of fools.

King Troutman regretted his foolish words as he looked upon the devastation that had wrought his land. He raised a clutched fin skyward and let out a cry of anguish "My God what have I done...What have I done...  But there were no Gods to hear his cries, nothing but the deep BLUE sea.
