Smuggler Archive
Thread: Not long ago, in a forum not far away....
Devy-Wevy and Smuggly, the Smuggler were holding hands and walking through the Forest on Endless Dreams.
"Will we'll ever really be able to smuggle?" asked Smuggly hopefully.
"Sure," said Devy-Wevy, "it'll be real soon."
Suddenly, Brainless Bunny hopped in front of them. "Can I slice an ADK?"
"Sure you can!" said Smuggly. "Happy to help out!"
Devy-Wevy and Smuggly kept holding hands and happily walking along.
"Speaking of slicing, is it always going to be as simple as it is now?"
Devy-Wevy smiled down at Smuggly. "Of course it is. If we made anything that was more interesting and challenging, people might not like it. We want everything to be easy."
"That's good," signed Smuggly. "I don't like things that are scarey or hard."
Suddenly, Brainless Bunny hopped in front of them. "Can I slice an ADK?"
"Sure you can!" said Smuggly. "Happy to help out!"
"Can we stop and rest for a moment?" asked Smuggly. "I'm getting tired carrying all these slicing components."
"Oh, you shouldn't be tired. We fixed that."
"I still had a bunch of old ones, but it's ok that they won't stack. One step at a time!" said Smuggly, gazing adoringly at Devy-Wevy.
Suddenly, Brainless Bunny hopped in front of them. "Can I slice an ADK?"
"Sure you can!" said Smuggly. "Happy to help out!"
As the two of them continued walking, Glowy Jebay stepped out from behind a tree.
"Hi Devy! Could you do me a favor? I don't like the way Smuggly is standing there. Can you kick him in the 'nads for me?"
Devy looked at Jebay for a moment. Happily, he turned to Smuggly, raised his foot suddenly, and lifted Smuggly eight inches off the ground.
"Thanks!" said Jebay. "I have to go finish AFK grinding my template now!" He waved and ran off.
Devy watched him run off with a proud sigh. Suddenly, he remembered Smuggly rolling around on the ground in pain.
"Here you go, little Smuggly," he said while helping him up. "Here... let me give you a combat skill, but you can't use it in PvP or Jebay might get mad. You know what happens then."
"Thanks, Devy. You're the best," said Smuggly.
Suddenly, Brainless Bunny hopped in front of them. "Can I slice an ADK?"
"Sure you can!" said Smuggly. "Happy to help out!"
Without warning, a real smuggler staggers into their path, reaking of Beer and Pie.
"Ya f'ing idiot. We've done all this already! We've been promised revamps but all they do is nerf us. *belch* Look at what just happened. Whatever the freakin' jedi want, they get -- and no one cares what happens to the other profs. We tried being nice, we tried being mean, doesn't matter. Years and we got nuthin' to show for it."
The real smuggler looked at both of the Smugglys standing before his blurred eyes. "Nevermind. You wanna act like you're important and will save the prof. Whatever. I'm outta here.... as soon as I can find that ranger. I'm f'ing lost again. Enjoy your non-revamp." With that, the smuggler dove back into the bushes, leaving a stream of curses and beer cans in his wake.
"Golly," said Smuggly. "He sounded really mean. You wouldn't really do those things he said, would you Devy?"
"Of course not."
Suddenly, Brainless Bunny hopped in front of them. "Can I slice an ADK?"
"Sure you can!" said Smuggly. "Happy to help out!"

Profound. True.
Why this game is run like this confounds me to the bottom of my very own soul.

And as Devy-wevy and Smuggly pass down the trail, rustling is heard in the bushes. One figure pads out of the underbrush, licking the reminants of the jebay from under its nails. Another casts its dead milky white eyes after the hand-holders, a sneer bareing its blood flecked teeth. And the last, dressed in green, twitches a rapier while scaning the surroundings with clenched teeth."This place gets worse every day.""Yeah, but its the only place we got.""No, there is another."Suddenly, Brainless Bunny hopped in front of them. "Can I slice a--ggggacckkk..."The three smirk at each other, and continue along the trail, stalking their prey, leaving another small red smear on the path in their wake.
LOL.
