You may recall the post about the Shining Spiral universe over on General a bit back. Well, I've run into a beautiful use for the Junior Vorlon Scouts (a subsect of Reform neo-Discordianism) in that universe and I figured that it would be polite to ask permission from whoever came up with it (I honestly do not currently recall) and probably Gryphon as well (on general principles). Basically, if anyone *would* be miffed at this, I'd like to know.

That is all. Thank you for your time.

Hmmm..

Junior Vorlon Scouts, parsed through $Brain, filtered to Eyrie only, returns no hits.

or, in english.. I can't recall ever seeing any mention of Junior Vorlon Scouts in the Eyrie body of work, and Gryphon, while he did give Kosh some wonderful lines, did not create the character.

Just a niggle in my cerebrum. Personally, I dig the idea of Junior Vorlon Scouts selling cookies..

"what kind of cookie do you most resemble?"

Err, that image just caused the following mental train wreck:

If they were, I suspect that they would be highly hallucinogenic.

I claim the coinage of the phrase "Junior Vorlon Scout", as applied to a human initiated into the Vorlon way of looking at things (the canonical example would be John Sheridan during his "I think I'll let Kosh make me crawl into ventilation shafts on my off hours" phase), but little else.

ARRRHG! you just caused flashbacks to a (very bad) Sailormoon/B5 crossover fic I read long ago. Sailor Vorlon, Sailor Narn, Sailor Mimbar, a mortified Ivonava as Sailor Babylon (she was DAMN glad for that disguise feild), and Tuxedo Mike (Garibaldi) *slams head against wall trying to drive out the images of G'kar undergoing a Starlight-esque transformation*

Although Mercury freaking out on seeing a Pakmara(sp? the carrion eaters) and mistaking it for Cuthulu (she'd read Poe's novels) was amusing.

Erm, that's Lovecraft, or Derleth at the very least. Not Poe. But the imagery still made me lose Sanity Points.

Hmmm. I haven't seen that particular variation. How about this one?

*shrugs* I know of one SM/HP fic in which Draco's a vampire, Usagi/Serena's in love with him and wants to become a vamp too. That was in the description of the story, I don't know anything more (nor do I want to).

Oh and Ebony? as far as the poe/lovecraft mix up, all I can say is DOH!

I'm gonna pretend I never saw that...I stink I need a thiff drink now...had a recurring image of Kosh-ko Kamen for some odd reason.

That would be "Encountersuit Mask". Not much of a disguise, really, but put a masquerade-ball mask and top hat on anyone and Clark Kent Syndrome suddenly takes effect.

On the other hand, he'd be about as helpful as the original, too. :)

The analogy holds. :)

Bad example; the only person Mystère's mask fooled was Mystère. :) Everyone else was all, "Hey, Leo, what's with the mask?"

Y'Know, that explains so much. The reason Kosh never made sense is because Pinky was doing the talking!

Are you kidding? That's the best dub speech I've ever seen. The folks at Cloverway ought to hire you to do their mistranslating. At least then it would be surreal, and not merely kiddified.

Thank you I now have the perfect thing to say to my girlfriend when I dont want to have to sit up to watch a sub hehe
