Obolensky is served - Steelhead Legal Strike Force at work from two perspectives

[Baron Klaus Wulfenbach]

Edited for clarity of narrative

[19:21] Redgrrl Llewellyn: Was that Dr. O who just landed?
[19:21] Matteo Serevi: so just visiting although business brought me here the other day
[19:21] Doctor Obolensky: Of course! Why turn up if you can't do it in style?
[19:21] Softpaw Sommer: Yes in a giant flying bug...you know Doc if you want fairy wings I can just arange that for you
[19:22] Doctor Obolensky: Well, if you want to be rid of yours, just let me know.
[19:22] Bookworm Hienrichs eyes Dr. Obolensky warily.
[19:23] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach looks over at Obolensky coldly
[19:24] Eugenia Burton tenses when someone walks past, her face paling a bit.
[19:24] Riven Homewood: Hi Forelle
[19:24] Myrtil Igaly: whot?
[19:25] Riven Homewood: Hi Fuzz
[19:25] Fuzzball Ortega: Hello, Riven
[19:25] Kembri Tomsen smiles at Doctor Oblensky as he wafts past
[19:27] Doctor Obolensky: Hmmm....I really should have brought Lord Smashington.
[19:27] Doctor Obolensky: He knows a few dance steps.
[19:28] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: You've caused enough trouble lately.
[19:28] Bookworm Hienrichs: Indeed.
[19:28] Doctor Obolensky: And you haven't cause enough. You're getting downright boring, Baron.
[19:28] Jimmy Branagh: :)
[19:28] Magdalena Kamenev was just inside of Smashington's head yesterday. "What a nice long tongue you gave him, Dr. O."
[19:28] Lumina Elvehjem: OH MY!
[19:28] Softpaw Sommer snickers
[19:28] Jimmy Branagh: 'oo's causin' trouble Herr Baron?
[19:28] Doctor Obolensky: Are you insane woman?
[19:29] Lumina Elvehjem mrrls that obolensky is almost callin the baron out
[19:29] Forelle Broek: Our Baron, trouble?
[19:29] Myrtil Igaly: I was wondering too but didn't dare to ask
[19:29] Bookworm Hienrichs: All the better to lick us all, I suppose.
[19:29] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach ignores the toothless comment
[19:29] Magdalena Kamenev: Frankly, yes.
[19:29] Doctor Obolensky: Smashington has no tongue, and he's currently in storage, so I doubt you were even there.
[19:29] Magdalena Kamenev: Oh! You dont' know ...
[19:29] Magdalena Kamenev: The Smashington that's been used to destroy part of Steam SkyCity has been rehabilitated.
[19:30] Doctor Obolensky: Impossible, as I moved every scrap of him.
[19:30] Annechen Lowey: Pardon, Mr Smashcan, I must attend to something on the other side of the dance floor.
[19:30] Ghilayne Andrew smiles.
[19:30] Doctor Obolensky: If there is one, it's just some sort of feeble imposter.
[19:30] Magdalena Kamenev smiles. "I'm insane, but not feeble, Dr. O."
[19:31] Roy Smashcan: Well, thanks for the dance, Frau Lowey
[19:31] Viv Trafalgar: Miss Lowey, what a fine gown
[19:31] Annechen Lowey mutters, "Where is that idiot?"
[19:31] Bookworm Hienrichs looks around for places to duck, in case the Doctor uses his bee gun again.
[19:31] Fuzzball Ortega: Which one, Annechen?
[19:32] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: My goodness, the place is surreal when half-rezzed.
[19:32] blakopal Galicia: as long as he doesn't start shooting pies!
[19:32] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: Guten Abend, Lady Kitla.
[19:32] Magdalena Kamenev slinks over to the bad, mean Doctor.
[19:33] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: Good even, Lord Baron.
[19:33] Canolli Capalini: sighs.. only about half the population have rezzed for me.
[19:33] Doctor Obolensky: Just push them out of the way as you go.
[19:33] Bookworm Hienrichs: I know the feeling, Canolli.
[19:33] Doctor Obolensky: It really does turn out better that way.
[19:33] Doctor Obolensky: >chuckles<
[19:34] Magdalena Kamenev lets the feathers of her dress brush up against the Doctor.
[19:34] Kalel Venkman: Miss Burton, thank you for a wonderful evening.
[19:34] Magdalena Kamenev: Has anyone pointed out how much you resemble ... Dr. Phibes?
[19:34] Kalel Venkman: I found you most enchanting.
[19:34] Doctor Obolensky: You are the first, but I do appreciate the compliment.
[19:34] Eugenia Burton: Thank you for coming with me, sir. I could not have danced without you to hold me up. Must you go?
[19:34] Magdalena Kamenev smiles.
[19:35] Doctor Obolensky: I find his work laudable, although, of course, he failed to do things the proper way.
[19:35] Kalel Venkman: I'm afraid I must.
[19:35] Magdalena Kamenev: I do wish you would reconsider a dance. I suspect you are ... magnificient on the dance floor.
[19:35] Eugenia Burton smiles, "Be careful and be well, Kal."
[19:35] Kalel Venkman: Real life, unfortunately, requires my immediate attention.
[19:36] Doctor Obolensky: I am a hundred and eight years old, woman. Dancing is both unpleasant and uncomfortable for me.
[19:36] Aeolus Cleanslate yells - everything is uncomfortable for you, Doc
[19:36] Kalel Venkman: Thanks again, Genie. :)
[19:36] Magdalena Kamenev slips the Bad Doctor a little note. "If you change your mind, sir. I'd be gentle with you."
[19:36] Eugenia Burton gets her crutches to hobble to a chair.
[19:36] Lumina Elvehjem: you dont look a day over 100
[19:36] Magdalena Kamenev saunters away ...
[19:37] Doctor Obolensky: With the exception of revenge, mayhem, and chaos, you may have a point.
[19:37] Doctor Obolensky: Oh, and a fine meal.
[19:38] Doctor Obolensky: Well, now this is interesting. >reading note<
[19:38] Magdalena Kamenev: And Doctor O, you have been served.
[19:38] Magdalena Kamenev: In all senses of the term.
[19:38] Eugenia Burton looks triumphant at what she overhears.
[19:38] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach snickers
[19:38] Forelle Broek: Well dne, Miss Mag!
[19:38] Bookworm Hienrichs applauds Mss Kamenev.
[19:38] Softpaw Sommer gigglefits
[19:38] Doctor Obolensky: Oh, don't be silly. This is excellent news.
[19:39] Mosseveno Tenk listens
[19:39] Magdalena Kamenev winks. "But call me if you do change your mind about the dance. I'll be sitting 2nd chair at the trial, so you can find me easily.
[19:39] Rose Springvale smiles
[19:39] Roy Smashcan: Are you without a dancing parter, Magz?
[19:39] Doctor Obolensky: I'm quite thrilled to receive an invitation to visit Steelhead.
[19:39] Magdalena Kamenev: I am, Roy.
[19:40] Magdalena Kamenev: Would you do me the honor, since I was thrown over by Dr. O?
[19:40] Bookworm Hienrichs: Will you let us know when that will be, Miss Kamenev?"
[19:40] Roy Smashcan: Would you like a tango?
[19:40] Lumina Elvehjem: good time to visit steelhead... we ar e doing a tour right now
[19:40] Magdalena Kamenev: Yes, please.
[19:40] Annechen Lowey: Hrmph. I was right. He is thick as a whale omlet.ar.
[19:40] Forelle Broek: Now that' unfair to whales, Frau Lowey!
[19:40] Eugenia Burton glares in the doctor's direction.
[19:40] Fuzzball Ortega: Naturally, if you were to be arrested. You'd have to sleep in the smaller cell.......the rat doesn't like sharing
[19:41] Prettykitty Gumbo: stifles a giggle
[19:41] Eugenia Burton: We'd have -two- rats then.
[19:41] Doctor Obolensky: >rubs his hands together< Luckily, I have Smashington loaded aboard ship already.
[19:41] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: Luckily, you don't get to bring it with you.
[19:41] Eugenia Burton hobbles her way over to the Sheriff to feel a bit safer.
[19:42] Doctor Obolensky: Don't be absurd, Klaus.
[19:42] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: Don't be familiar, Obolensky. You haven't earned the privilege.
[19:42] Doctor Obolensky: Yes, well, then stop speaking nonsense.
[19:42] Aeolus Cleanslate rubs his jaw and wonders about the legality of all this
[19:42] Lumina Elvehjem: now now...
[19:43] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: Do you really think Tensai Hilra would allow that monstrosity of yours in her town?
[19:43] Forelle Broek: Oh Tensai would have some fun with it, I'll wager
[19:43] Annechen Lowey: Oh, she might - she could want something for target practice.
[19:43] Fuzzball Ortega: Woman crashed all of Beta Grid.
[19:43] Doctor Obolensky: Who said I would ask?
[19:43] Lumina Elvehjem: she does love that splode the building thing she has ... alot
[19:44] Eugenia Burton: I will have to tell Mr. Sawyer to keep watch over Cockleburr Corner.
[19:44] Doctor Obolensky: Besides, it's the Americas, and the "Wild West". I'll be suprised if they have two story buildings.
[19:45] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: Who said you'd have a choice?
[19:45] Eugenia Burton glares at Dr. O from behind Fuzzball's shoulder.
[19:45] Forelle Broek: But we still don't have indoor plumbing
[19:45] Doctor Obolensky: >chuckles<
[19:45] Doctor Obolensky: I always have a choice, Baron.
[19:45] Viv Trafalgar: smiles a little nervously
[19:46] Viv Trafalgar: finding herself caught between a Doc and a Baron
[19:46] Bookworm Hienrichs: I think you'll be all right, Viv.
[19:46] Maelstorme Smythe: Hello Ms. Hienrichs.
[19:47] Baron Klaus Wulfenbach: Fraulein, if he pulls anything, I will shield you.
[19:47] Eugenia Burton: Oh, dear. Klaus is being brave and Dr. O is being crabby. It is enough to make me weaker-kneed than I already am.
[19:47] Doctor Obolensky: Hmmm...yes...perhaps the electro-cane.
[19:47] Viv Trafalgar: ::braces::
[19:48] Doctor Obolensky: >taps chin<
[19:48] Viv Trafalgar: perhaps I should step out of the way gentlemen?
[19:48] Viv Trafalgar: really
[19:48] Aeolus Cleanslate shouts: everyone! may I have your attention please?
[19:48] Forelle Broek hates fisticuffs
[19:48] Eugenia Burton: No. Dr. Obolensky will not harm Klaus here.
[19:48] Doctor Obolensky: Of course, there is much to be said for the old-fashioned automatic cannon.
[19:48] Eugenia Burton: I will not allow it.
[19:48] Aeolus Cleanslate: I just wanted to say two quick words before we continue our revelry
[19:48] Magdalena Kamenev looks over at Genie and senses ... something.
[19:49] Eugenia Burton: I may not have my magick, but I have Crutch-Foo.
[19:49] Forelle Broek: *giggle*
[19:49] Lumina Elvehjem: klaus is above such displays at a dance like this too i imagine...unless utterly forced... which is VERY hard to do
[19:53] Aeolus Cleanslate shouts: and finally - let me welcome our friends from the city state of Steelhead - we in the Tenk administration will offer our full support to their efforts to bring Doctor Obolensky to Justice
[19:53] Aeolus Cleanslate shouts: and now - please enjoy the rest of your night!
[19:53] Forelle Broek bows
[19:53] Jimmy Branagh applauds.
[19:54] Eugenia Burton smiles and bobs as much of a curtsy as she can on crutches.
[19:54] Viv Trafalgar: waits for the Maceholder to get covered in oil or giant lobsters or something


'...meanwhile, back at the ranch...'

[19:20] Eugenia Burton: Did you make it yet, Forelle?
[19:20] Forelle Broek: yes, I'm just behind you I think
[19:22] Magdalena Kamenev: The target is on the premises!
[19:23] Forelle Broek: Yes, so I see
[19:23] Eugenia Burton: I see you!
[19:29] Eugenia Burton: I can't hear himi! GACK!
[19:29] Eugenia Burton: Did he insult my Baron?
[19:29] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: Oh, dear ....
[19:29] Forelle Broek: He tried to, inartfully!
[19:29] Hotspur Otoole: I didn't! I just got on.
[19:30] Annechen Lowey: Drat it, wrong side of the dance floor.
[19:30] Forelle Broek: Miss Mags, feel like playing process server?
[19:30] Eugenia Burton: Hrmph! Wehre is he?
[19:30] Fuzzball Ortega: It's ok, Hotspur.
[19:30] Hotspur Otoole: Whew
[19:30] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: TP, please, Annecehn?
[19:32] Magdalena Kamenev considers. "I've never served anyone before."
[19:32] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: Good exerience.
[19:32] Forelle Broek: Well this can be your initiation then. He'll never suspect anything from you
[19:33] Fuzzball Ortega: Yup, the lawyer's got a point.
[19:33] Forelle Broek: I do. But I wear a hat, so nobody can tell
[19:33] Hotspur Otoole: This reminds me of my failed process serving business.
[19:33] Annechen Lowey: Ooh, the Miss West Approach, good.
[19:33] Fuzzball Ortega: We could've probably sent Willard,
[19:33] Forelle Broek: heh, really 'Spur?
[19:33] Hotspur Otoole: We would show up dressed as Yogi Bear and Booboo
[19:33] Forelle Broek always thought Magz was a bit slinky
[19:34] Fuzzball Ortega: Yup, when she's good, she's good. When she's bad........she's better
[19:34] Hotspur Otoole: Everyone trusts Yogi and Boo, and would always open the door.
[19:34] Fuzzball Ortega: What about Ranger Smith, Hotspur?
[19:34] Forelle Broek watches with anticipation
[19:34] Hotspur Otoole: Nah, looks too much like a cop.
[19:35] Fuzzball Ortega: He doesn't trust Yogi. That's my point.
[19:35] Annechen Lowey: Ranger Doug, then.
[19:35] Forelle Broek: Or Ranger Willie B. Safe (creepy U.S. Govt. public service chaacter!)
[19:35] KlausWulfenbach Outlander: As Herr Broek said, it had no tooth.
[19:36] Hotspur Otoole: oh, I thought you meant, did we ever dress up as Ranger Smith.
[19:37] Forelle Broek: so has Dr. O just not rezzed fo me, or does he always loook lke that?
[19:37] Eugenia Burton: Crap. I crashed. Did I miss it?
[19:37] Forelle Broek: oh, he's a real charer
[19:37] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: Melodrama is his tailor.
[19:37] Forelle Broek: Nope, not et. Mags is still wooing him
[19:37] Fuzzball Ortega: He always looks like that
[19:37] Hotspur Otoole: are you folks in Babbage?
[19:37] Fuzzball Ortega: Yes, believe it or not, I'm in Babbage
[19:37] KitlalminaQuetzal Nightfire: Yes, would you care for a TP, Commodore?
[19:37] Dracona Lisle: the theme is gold
[19:37] Magdalena Kamenev: He accepted the note!
[19:37] Fuzzball Ortega: And I'm in black
[19:37] Lumina Elvehjem: we all are... or most of us
[19:38] Hotspur Otoole: I'll only believe it when I see it.
[19:38] Forelle Broek: Hoooo!
[19:38] Fuzzball Ortega: Representing oil. Black gold.
[19:38] Eugenia Burton: Someone notecard it. I missed it!
[19:44] Fuzzball Ortega: If he does enter Steelhead, unless he's a citizen, he can't rez a darn thing

[Forelle Broek]

[Genie]

I'm so glad you were there, Sheriff. I felt much safer!

[Fuzzball Ortega]

And that was the first time I attended an event in New Babbage.


Now someone, Forelle Broek, needs to keep me informed of this trial thing. Don't wanna log in and find out I'm missing stuff.
