Spoiler Joke from Beginings

Image

Mange, <What were Laughs brightly's famous last words?>

Chief, “Beats me.”
Image

<Read the following quote from BEGININGS:>

In 'THE BEST LAID PLANS' David Weber wrote:
[Laughs Brightly talking with his younger brother Sharp Nose while watching Dances on clouds.]

<She is truly Death Fang’s Bane’s daughter, however many the turnings between them, and not just because she, too, dances upon the clouds,> Laughs Brightly said quietly. <I have tasted Death Fang’s Bane many times in the memory songs, and this one . . . this one will be as strong, do as many things—or more—I believe.>

<Have you ever considered bonding with one of the two-legs?> Sharp Nose asked, and Laughs Brightly bleeked softly in amusement.

<Not I, little brother! If I had, I would probably have leapt at the chance to bond with her father when he was but little older than she is now. Yes, their mind-glows blaze bright, but their lives are too short. There are too many wonders in this world still for me to see to bind myself to a two-leg, even one as youthful as this youngling, and miss so many of them! Besides, she is Deep Roots’ daughter even more than she is Death Fang’s Bane’s. Like him, she is bound for other worlds, other suns, and I am a child of this world, Sharp Nose. Scout though I may be, I do not wish to leave it.>


<As you see yielding Laughs Brightly's famous last words, "I'll not bond with Dances on Clouds preferring to be safely home and not leave the planet," NOT :!: >

Chief, "I don't want Admiral Werrf to get a big head but David Weber quoted his joke in his latest Tweet:"

Quoting Werrf on the http://davidweber.net forums... "How do Manticoran sensor crews report no contacts on their watch?" "Not a Peep."


Mange, <Bye the bye he's my favorite jokester too.> :lol:

"Traitor!"

Mange a treecat shrug.

Actually, they have killed some imaginary characters, and forced others into hiding or retirement.

It's not like they have never skinned a cat before.
