Chapter 31: Games as Open Culture

Excerpts from The Metamora Family: User ID: dnknt98 As darkness arose, and spirits wandered Magoria spoke of the evil deeds that she was ready to carry out. Magoria approched her family and spoke: "This All Hallows Eve, the moon wiil be full and the time has come to complete The Passage of the Dead."

Charlie, unsure of what was being spoken, asked, "What is this evil you speak of Magoria?"

Charlie, unsure of what was being spoken, asked, "What is this evil you speak of Magoria?" "I know, I know we are going to summon the demon of Guton," Wenticia screamed.

Charlie, unsure of what was being spoken, asked, "What is this evil you speak of Magoria?" "Yes that is correct, we shall begin to sacrifice the youth and in return be granted Eternal life." Magoria turned and placed a hand on the grave of Elanora, saying, "This is our family's destiny; we will prevail." Excerpts from Gingerbread: User ID: GoodHumor 1 Like most fleeing edibles, George and Ginny are tormented by the possibility of becoming someone's next meal. Ginny, longing for some normalcy in her life, is hoping to meet new friends and finally settle down in a neighborhood where she and her husband can relax. George, on the other hand, is consumed with the danger of winding up as part of somebody's holiday buffet. It is with some trepidation that Ginny announces,

"George, I have decided to throw a house warming party to get to know our new neighbors."

George is not too keen on this idea until he realizes this would be a golden opportunity to scope out potential enemies, you know, those that might find his curly que hairdo just a little too appetizing. Actually, he worries more for Ginny. She tends to be too trusting. Her kind nature has unfortunately gotten the couple in more than a few mixes…er…fixes.The upside to this is that all this "escaping" has kept the two in prime physical condition. …George insists that he and Ginny sleep in the guest room on the first floor. This way he will be ready for anything that might pop up…a burglary, a fire, a gingernapping…whatever. He worries about Ginny because he loves her so. George has a bad feeling about this Newbie character and plans to keep one frosted eye on him. …A roaring fire seems to calm George, taking him back to his roots. He wishes that just once, he and Ginny could exist in a world free of gingerbread groupies.

With Ginny asleep upstairs, George consumes cup after cup of Expresso in an effort to stay awake as long as possible…just in case.

He is aware that Joy Holiday is lurking outside the window, in cahoots with Bob, of course. George already informed Joy that he and Ginny have no desire to be storefront props for her stupid Bakery. These humans!!!

But George is playing it cool. He does not want Joy to know he is on to her. He's not worried, though. She'll get hers too. With escalating paranoia, George aims his new telescope in the direction of the Newbie home. And just as he suspected, Bob is having some sort of kitchen table meeting with one of Simville's senior citizens, Joy Holiday.

"OK," sighs George, "That makes Joy suspect #4. Geez, you can't trust anyone these days." George notices Bob Newbie spending way too much time at the house with Ginny. And just the other day, he noticed Bob hand Ginny a slip of paper. What was THAT all about? And, to make matters worse, George is not imagining that Frankie still wants to claim the gingerbread home as his own, preferably not including its present inhabitants. George decides surveillance cameras, alarms, and telescopes alone won't due. Extra precautions are needed. He heads over to the shed out back… Zendo Dungeon Seige editor Scourge Done Slick, 1998 | Quake Done Quick Father Frags Best, 1999 | Phil Rice aka Overman Devil's Covenant, 1998 | Clan Phantasm Anachronox, 2001 | Jake Hughes, Director
