Methinks this encounter was a prelude to some future bruhaha between Mentl and Ponty

But as a slur…it’s just ick - they’re brothers, fer crying out loud!

Dang… I just thought I might catch you on Pony… but, LFG is too cool for any displeasure at any mention of it, intentional or unintentional.
So, I’ll just sit here and wait for my copy of the twins, while eating some cheesecake and enjoy the fan club company.

Both of them took shots at each other, it can end there, as Ponty tried to push and Mentl didn’t back down.

Round 2
Ponty: *laughs at the obvious (to him) image of Mentl and the brawny barbarian babe
Mentl: *throws down the guantlet at the obvious insult and smacks Ponty like a biznatch*
At this point, they are still even, tit for tat, although I think Ponty is starting to tread a grey area because he keeps instigating.

Mentl then starts to Chant because, let’s face it, if we all thought there was going to be a throwdown, how must it be looking for Mentl with 6′+ of boorish brawn stepping up into his grill? So IMHO, I think the cha is still balanced, because I think Mentl wasn’t so much going to blast him, as put himself into a more even combat mode. That song isn’t about blasting, it’s about letting off steam and kicking ass. our boy has a streak of fairness in him that sometimes shows itself in some unexpected ways, methinks.

Tula steps in at that point because 1) she doesn’t know what that song is and she doesn’t want to see Ponty and the eye candy he’s traveling with spread like strawberry jam across the landscape like the Uurts were. 2) Once you kill any kind of royalty, someone gets pissed off and comes looking for revenge, usually at the exact worse time for something like that to be happening. 3) She may have some history with him (and may be trying to change his chauvantist attitudes in the hopes he’ll become a better playmate).

The beefcake twins, honestly, they probably have seen so much of Ponty’s antics that they take bets on what the outcome is before he ever sets foot in a camp (if he sleeps with one of the girls, for example, which he would have lost big time LOL).

So there you have my humble opinion of the situation.

He may be an idiot, and he may act every bit as much a douchebag as Pontagar in his own way, but unlike Ponty it’s hard to actually dislike Yatta-Ta. I mean, it would feel kinda like kicking a particularly dumb and oblivious puppy.

I love LFG. Especially Richard, though. Wish I could write a character like that, but Zona isn’t enough of a satire to make a mass-murderer likeable like he is. “PONY!” My favorite character, though, is Benny - go figure, right? My favorite gag was where she and Pella have to open a portal by hitting each other with pillows while dressed only in their undies. (”The spell was written by a young mage still in collegium” BWA-haha!)

Yatta-Ta is still in his dressing room, memorizing his lines for his next appearance. You won’t have *too* terribly long to wait, but it’s not for a while. Actually, he’s *counting* his lines and I had a hell of a row with him when I gave him a paragraph-long speech and then cut it because it ruined the flow of the scene. (”It’s not you! I promise! It’s just that the momentum just dies right there.” “You’re just saying that! You never cut HER lines! If I had those boobs you’d never touch the speech” “Actually, I can give you those boobs, if you want, sweetie, but it won’t change anything but which of the fans want to see you topless …” ) I swear it’s like dealing with Shatner …
