Honorverse Humor or lack thereof.

What do you get when you cross a treecat with a Detwiler?



<Nothing... there are some things a 'cat just will NOT do>

Chief, "So Mange what do you think of White Tallon's joke?"

Mange, <Not bad, I would have said 'Lunch for the treecat,' as the punch line."

"Hey mange, did you see this on fanfiction.net:"

http://www.fanfiction.net/s/7771006/1/Wrath-of-the-Witch-Maiden

"Sixteen chapters almost as good as Weber"

<No one is as good as Runs For Celery, two-leg!>

"Temper Mange, I said 'almost'. Worth a look IMHO."

<Good, I hate cleaning blood from my fur when I shred a two-leg.>

Poker and Mange

It’s been quite a while since I posted in this thread. Have no fear I am still a fan of Honorverse and I plan on staying that way for a long time. :)
< Trust me, I'm still here as well. >

Ah yes, and Snowfire my treecat protector/shadow/gambler.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Manticorian warship is docked quite close to a Grayson warship in Hephaestus. A Manticorian sailor meets a Grayson sailor on the way back to his ship.
"How's the Alliance's second largest Navy doing?" The Mantie asked with quite a bit of pride.

The Grayson replies calmly: "Just fine, mate. How's the Alliance's second best doing?"

Edited for a typo, as this post was kind of rushed.

Mange? Did you see my joke about the Detwilers at the conference table? Was that any good?

Chief, "Check your site mail you got a PM with some Honorverse fan art, some not PG."

PS. "Watch out for Admiral Star Night's treecat, Snowfire, and keep your hand on your wallet, just saying."

<But she's a looker,> Mange blows a kiss.

Mange, <Where have you been?>

Chief, "All over the Net. Check out this fan-art:"

<Ah, Climbs Quickly stalking cluster stalk. Hey finally an artist rendition of a treecat with the native accouterments of a sentient being! No fat house-cat in the arms of his two-leg, a true portrait of a scout of the People!>

"Just so. So Mange got a joke?"

<What do you call a treecat in a greenhouse of Sphinxian celery?>

"On cloud nine?"

<No, constipated!> "Bleek, bleek,...bleek."

"Lousy six limbed walking flea circus!"

Mange, <I like a lot. You know that Strikes Quickly was one fisherman Rear Admiral Emo Otaku wouldn't try his "21. Give a man a fish, feed him for a day. Take his fish away and tell him he's lucky just to be alive, and he'll figure out how to catch another one for you to take tomorrow," tag line on without getting dealt with properly.>

"Bleek, bleek, bleek,...bleek."

"Temper, Mange, don't go snarking at Rear Admirals!"

<How about biting one in the rear?>

Chief shrugs shaking his head, "Treecats."

A certain treecat with an attitude problem should also remember that this admiral knows the other rules including:-

6. If violence wasn’t your last resort, you failed to resort to enough of it
27. Don't be afraid to be the first to resort to violence.
37. There is no 'overkill.' There is only 'open fire' and 'I need to reload.'

and strangely appropriate

8. Mockery and derision have their place. Usually, it's on the far side of the airlock.

Just remember

Mange, <Hey Chief did you see this one from Spacekewi in Firebrands famous last words?>

Its like that joke about the President when he comes into the White House.

"All right, I want to know everything."


"Sorry Mr President, you are not cleared for that."

"But I'm the President. I hold the highest security clearance there is."

"You are the President, that is correct."

"Can you tell me how many more levels there are above me, or who holds those levels then?"


"I'm sorry Mr. President, you are not cleared for that."

its not paranoia if its justified...
