Well, of course. I doubt anyone'd be crazy enough to write up a command interpreter just for an ARG.



Actually, that sounds kind of cool...

I can hear it now . . .

PM #1: "Oh, good grief . . . "

PM #2: "What is it?"

PM #1: "Some crazy Beekeeper wants us to write up a command interpreter for the HALO ARG."

PM #2: "*CENSORED*! *CENSORED*, *CENSORED*, *CENSORED* *CENSORED*!"

 		In light of the recenst release of the Princess . . .
. . . I have written yet aqnother exceedingly lengthy message to ladybee777SPLAThotmail.com, this one addressed specifically to the Princess herself and marked URGENT.

Here's the text of the message (and don't say I didn't warn you!):

Quote:

To Her Royal Highness the Sleeping Princess of the Apocalypso, greetings from your loyal subjects.

I, Private First Class Peter Walker of the 255th Marine Battalion, commonly called the "Black Omega Mob", wish to inform you that your faithful servants are overjoyed to learn that the operative dispatched to rescue you - Special Agent HMRPITA - was successful at securing your release. No doubt Queen Melissa is quite irate at these latest developments.

During your absence, the ranks of those of us who sympathize with you and wish to be of assistance have grown considerably. I therefore humbly submit the following roster of those known to be faithful to your cause:

Envoy Dorkmaster, Ambassador At Large
Squire Septimus, Assistant to Envoy Dorkmaster
Sir Centipede, Knight Rider of the Army of the Sleeping Princess
Sir CoffeeJedi, Knight
Sir Killer-of-Lawyers, Knight of the Court
Sir Starblade, Keeper of Sajuuk
High Priestess Nuriko
Nightmare Tony, Chandler to the Princess
Court Jester Dabo King

PFC Peter "Macavity" Walker, 255th Marines (The Black Omega Mob)
PFC Epic1980, 1980th Marines (The Eighties Men)
PFC B. "HitsHerMark" Wench, Sharpshooter, 50th Marines (The Bullseye Brigade)
Cpl. Snorlinson, 32nd Marines (The Less-Than-A-Minute Men)
Sgt. Aelith, also of the 32nd Marines
Lt. Asp Masterson, UNSC Apocalypso Galley Crew

Special Agent JOHNNY NITRO
Special Agent KRUNKSPLEIN
Special Agent ASTUTE FALCON
Special Agent HMRPITA

Tactician Theo Rizer
Navigation officer Charles "Checksum" Michaels

I have also compiled a list of those who would wish to see us fail in our objectives. They are comprised mainly of command staff, although they do have a few sympathizers amongst the enlisted crew. These people are:

Ensign Kamen
Ensign Dragonrider
Ensign Krystyn
PFC Ben
Cpl. Mazian
Sgt. Mann Alive
Master Chief Petty Officer Chappy
Lt. Weephun (it was he who betrayed you to the Queen)
Lt. Carlson
Lt. Adam
Lt. Archon
Maj. Jared Mach
Lt. Cmdr. Shadow
Cmdr. Mike Wasz
Col. X. N. Bomb

It's good to have you back, Princess. If there is anything else I can assist you with, do not hesistate to contact me.

I am, as ever, your humble servant.

PFC Peter "Macavity" Walker, 255th Marines
Loyal soldier of the Army of the Sleeping Princess

 		My turn (and thanks by the way for the concise list of who's "with" who, I had thought of trying to put that together myself, but didn't have the time):
Quote:
I told you that SOMEBODY was out to get you.

Glad you're back now. Sorry to see that you've chosen to ally yourself with the Pious Flea though ... Be careful, you've seen what he's done to the Queen.

I personally would not choose trying to hide forever over the possibility of getting free (like I mentioned before we may be able to convince the Queen to let you go if we could get rid of the Pious Flea and his influence over her) but I guess the choice is yours, huh?

Well, good luck anyway Smile
Weephun

No problem, Weephun (and I'm sorry I ratted on you to the Princess, but she's probably wondering how the Queen was able to find and trap her so fast).

 		Here's what I just emailed to our Princess:

Quote:
Dear Sleeping Princess,

Many of us consider you to be family. We are so happy to have you back. I'm sorry I caused you to go down the wrong path, but alas you still found your way back home thanks to our friend Pita.

You have so many friends that want to protect you from the evil Queen so that she will not lock you up anymore. While you were locked away, an army has formed that will make sure to it that the Queen cannot catch you again. We should take action now to force the Queen off the throne.

This task will be scarier that the one where you lost your family. However, you are not alone in this battle. PFC Peter "Macavity" Walker sent you the roster of those people who have sworn to protect you. The Queen can usually be found in the kitchen. I suggest we start there.

You don't have to worry about the Queen locking you up anymore.

Welcome back, Princess!


Lt. Aspmaster, at your service.

Mine either, and I think I was the first one to talk to the SP.

 		... So proclaiming myself "Beer Wench 1st Class" of the SPARMY wasn't memorable enough Macavaty?

Cool Laughing

I was very sad when I saw that the Queen had found you on the 404
page. And I'm very happy to see that you're back.

I think the problem is that some people underestimated the Queen when
they were talking to her...

Some people still seem to be doing that...

Now, not only does the Queen know Dana's name, but it appears to some
of us that she's started messing around with her bank accounts and
such.

Most of us didn't think she could do much of anything but call pay
phones, but phone lines are what hold most of the Global Economy
together...

Dana's last name was not given over the phone, but a little digging on
the server that contains the ilovebees site would probably result in
that.

Dana is now in a foreign country, on the opposite side of the globe
from her home with no money in her bank account.

It seems obvious that the Queen is responsible, but that might not be
the case. (Mistakes do happen.) Anyway you look at it, the only
person in a position to check if it's true and, possibly, do anything
about it is you at the moment.

Though you've certainly been through enough as it is I think.

I realise you still need to figure out who to trust and all that. So
I'm not going to tell you what to do, or where to go...

I'm just letting you know the current situation, and asking that you be careful.

Love,
HitsHerMark

 		Go Lee Oh, that should have been posted in the Questions section, but here is the thread you are looking for.

To paraphrase an earlier post made to Asmpaster:

Who says a Lieutenant Commander can't also be a Special Agent? As I recall, Ian Fleming's character James Bond was a 00-class agent AND a Commander.

Also (and this is for Astald and Gilada), that letter mentions only the people whose loyalties are known to be for one of the other. At the time I was writing it, I didn't know which sides you two were "on" (and I still don't know which side Astald is "on").

I'll email an update to the Princess either later today or tomorrow sometime.

 		I wasn't trying to complain about not being on the list, just trying to be a nuisance is all. When it comes to sides, I would say I am primarily on Dana's side. And with the AIs, I tend to lean a little to the SP. I am trying to remain as balanced as possible though. I won't do anything to jeopardize the Princess though, so the SPArmy can count on me.
