What's that you sign, Mange? The celery salt has interfered with your ability to properly read mind-glows? I see, well that's awful. Fortunately, I happen to be a fully qualified Sphinxian vet as well as an Admiral, and you can trust an Admiral when he tells you that the best way to clear your head of celery salt poisoning is to find a nice friendly hexapuma and ask it to dance. Trust me!

Unfortunately for Fleet Admiral Werrf's plan to rid the Honorverse of the garlic salt crazed treecat Mange there are no hexapumas on Grayson.

Asked to comment Fleet Admiral Werrf said, "Image, it seemed like a good plan at the time." In a stage whisper to the audience, "Drats! Foiled again by that snarkey 'cat!"

now now, we have all heard that no more shower scenes are coming.

Nothing has been said about bubblebath scenes, however.


Mange to patch up his deteriorating relationship with Admiral Werrf works on the key board:

Honor Harrington Bubble Bath Scene as related to SCF Mangy Fur by Laughs Brightly wrote:
Honor Harrington-Alexander slipped her foot in the warm inviting bubble bath. Using her arms she slowly slipped in the warm soothing embrace of the bubbles that tickled her skin as they burst. She luxuriated in the warm water as hedonistic as any treecat.

But after too short a time in the arms of blissful enveloping wet warmth, Honor proceeded with her mission, cleaning her body, and grabbed the washcloth washing her armpits. This accomplished she moved lower raising her ...


Chief, "Oops the rest won't make it through the Honorverse PG censorship board use your imagination fellow dirty old men."

Silly and Solly meet in the spaceport.
"I am waiting for the Shuttle nr.1" - said Solly.
"Okay." - said Silly. "My shuttle is nr. 2"
Then they sat on the bench, and waited until shuttle nr. 12 was rolled on the launching pad. Then they both boarded it, and went on their way.

Unfortunately for them, it was the prison shuttle.

Anybody got ideas for a "mirrored" DisHonorverse?

You know the one - where the ruthless leadership of Imperial Manticore is supported by CatSec, which consists of goatee sporting treecats and their adopted two-legs...

That creature generates seriously bad vibes. And i'm not talking about two-legged one ;) That goatee? Creepy with capital C. I can already tell that this guy never, ever read anything about Nimitz.

Three admirals -- a Solarian, a Havenite, and a
Manticoran -- were discussing what courage was.

The Solarian admiral said to the other two "Let
me show you what courage is," waving over one
of his junior staff officers. He then told that
officer "Go over to that 50-meter flagpole, climb
up to the top and salute." The Solarian officer
promptly carried out his admiral's order, scurry-
ing quickly up to the top of the flagpole, where
he saluted his superior officer.

The Havenite admiral looked at his Solarian count-
erpart and said "Impressive. But let me show you
what courage is," and waved over one of his staff
officers. When that officer arrived, the Havenite
admiral said "Go to that 75-meter flagpole, climb
up to the top, and salute." The Havenite officer
carried out his order just as quickly as the Solar-
ian officer had, and was soon saluting his super-
ior from the top of the flagpole.

The Manticoran admiral looked at his fellow admirals
and said "That was admittedly courageous, but let me
show you both what we of Her Majesty's Navy call cour-
age."

He then waved one of his officers over and said to
him "Go over to that 150-meter flagpole, climb up
to the top, and salute." The officer looked at his
superior with bug-eyed disbelief and said "Begging
the Admiral's pardon, but you can go straight to
Hell, sir! My parents didn't raise any crazy people."

The Manticoran admiral turned to the Solarian and
Havenite admirals and, with a smug, self-satisfied
smile said "Now that, gentlemen, is what we
call true courage in Manticore."

ok, equal time. Where are the scenes of Hamish in the shower or bath? Or some other hottie gentleman? When does Dame Alice get to settle down with her harem of 4 husbands? :-) :-) :-)
