Thanks for a wonderful post,
Rim! You managed to get the Mixed-Nuts-Ship out of their predicament, though with a bit of the usual mayhem and destruction at the end. (The next poster should be able to find some means of getting them back to their ship, I'm sure.) There are some great laughs in your post, which I shall not count up for various reasons, one of which is the notion of family-friendly posting...
I must admit, though, you do have me curious about the "scene that can only be described by someone with the willpower to do it". Oh, and how ingenious to come up with the idea of a ring that changes everyone's personalities!!
At any rate, I am very glad that you jumped into the breach (or was it onto the beach?) to post. Now who'll be next?
Thena, who has been working on a post, appears to have fallen prey to real life and hasn't been around lately.
Mith,
Diamond, and
Lush would be the next obvious choices, since it's been about six weeks since their last posts. Game, any of you?
