Time-in-Grade, Girl. Time-in-Grade!!
I’m off to bed. If anything exciting happens while I’m gone, don’t bother to tell me. I’ve had enough for one day.
Some things can be “controlled,” some can’t. So I quit for the nonce.

If y’all can’t be nice, I’ll have to have a baby or something! Brain you with Girl Scout cookies! Turn the snake loose!
Well, I feel better. Now I have phone calls to make for Girl Scouts. Some days, I wish I was in Oklahoma. I have to call there tomorrow and find out who took out Anoreth’s tonsils and adenoids.

Anyway, back to the hospitality.
We produce our own. 
Say when ...

One bottle will be enough for me.

One bottle would probably be a lifetime supply for me.
Gah! That’s depressing! Makes me want to ...

No, no, don’t even think about it!

I’m going to have a little wine, put my feet up, and read a biography of Charles Gordon (”of Khartoum”).

Trojan horse, eh?
How about a harmless looking robotic vehicle with autnav.
Call it something bizarre, liek Roboi or something.
Have the ‘dragon tickler mk 1’ in the back, and right before it does it’s magic, have it blart out some odd phrases to the enemy about bacon or some demented such.

... and read a biography of Charles Gordon (”of Khartoum”). Should be a good read. It has everything; guns, steel, and even germs!

I wanted to get my hands on some fluorescent
metatorbernite.
Unfortunately, it seems to be hard to come by.
And, I don't think anyone would like me having a lead lined and inert gas filled display case..

Yeah, we have to find some way to keep our ‘passers by’ returning.

I’ll be the escort for this excursion.
Nevermind the body armor, it’s simply standard protocol when travelling into the underdark.

"I wanted to get my hands on some fluorescent metatorbernite. Unfortunately, it seems to be hard to come by." Now you see the wisdom of our having proceeded directly to the manufacture of those little nubbins. No casting, no machining, just direct electrochemical deposition. Precise, pure, and reproducible.
A little physics, a little chemistry, and *poof*, problems go away.
And as far as "Trojan Horse", think more along the lines of "Trojan Spiders", able to go anywhere a man can go, especially for example, underground ...

Why am I envisioning the trojan spider speaking in a Dalek voice while cutting open a door?
And why am I also seeing the event of one walking past some pedestrian and declaring, “You are an inferior pedestrian, exterminate!”
Probably because I am sleep deprived, but that’s when all the horrible and humorous ideas come.

Interactions with pedestrians should be typically unnecessary. Where an interaction would occur, it would more likely be an observe, scan, and ignore, much like a Borg, followed perhaps by a polite “Excuse me!” as the robot ripped the door off its hinges.
Also, keep in mind that these are the minibots. They are built to easily move through standard corridors, doorways, stairs, and windows.
I’m glad they’re on our side.
I think they’re on our side.

“I’m glad they’re on our side.
I think they’re on our side.”
Meanwhile, down in sublevel A6, home of the most ‘unintended events’ we’ve seen, the minibots are merrily observing, scanning, and copying their ‘closest at hand study subjects’.

Lots of germs, including that global sensation, cholera. I made it through the Taiping Rebellion before I fell asleep.

I’m always happy to know that people are amused. There’s just too much grumpiness in the world. Imagine how awful it would be if we were all suicidal Finns!

"Imagine how awful it would be if we were all suicidal Finns!" I can imagine. It would be like the third year of an Obama Administration.
