Re: The Asylum

*Sniffs* Man, do I miss that boy, though. Damn him for going off to do Nano-y stuff.

Hallo, Grimmmm-leh!

Re: The Asylum

Cheers Ace, Hoops, Karn, and dinner-eating-wolfie-in-absentia.

All doing well, I hope? Arms appear to be quite attached there, Hoops; your housemate chose not to take them with him as a precaution, then? Where did the Nano-y stuff take him?

So our friendly wrym *at this, Wat leaps off the fridge and zips around the fireball a few times, then returns to perch* is named Wat; Freda does have a flair for picking them....

Re: The Asylum

It wasn't so much picking as finding, Grim. Same with Tangle, or so I remember hearing.


Juken! You put that toy train down right now! It's not yours!

Re: The Asylum

He's gone to Nottingham to do a Masters in Nanotechnology. After which time he'll probably build his power armour at last and take over the world with his nanobots.

Another one of my housemates, who's staying here, is doing a PhD to do with nanoparticles, and particularly what effect they might have in the environment. Especially as they're now being used in things used as toothpaste, washing machines and socks.

Whereas I'm going to do a Masters focused on scriptwriting and make a film about it all!

Re: The Asylum

Sounds like a plan, or several. Are you sure he's not a bowman, off to rejoin his happy hoodlum chums in the woods? (OK, that one was bad....)

Nanoparticles? In my toothpaste?

*Holds up tube and looks into it suspiciously*

EDIT: Oye, so it is....

Re: The Asylum

He did do archery, actually...

It's not so bad, Nottingham is about forty-five minutes away by train from my family home, so when I pop up there for a visit, I could go a little further and see him, too.

Yah...silver nanoparticles are particularly popular because they kill harmful bacteria. But once they're washed out into the environment, who knows what kind of effect they'll have on it (well...I know some of the effects on fish, due to the third year project my friend did...)

Re: The Asylum

Plants don't wage war on everyone-I, for one, have no autoimmune responses.

Re: The Asylum

You wait mana - oneday, oneday when your all alone in the house they will come. Slow and steady they will come for you! With thorns and stingers - root and vine - they will come for you!

See yah Grim - good luck with the training!

Re: The Asylum

Now don't be silly, wolf. My histamine levels remain in check. *Picks OR up and trots him over to the pool* Now you sit here and be a nice, quiet little dire wolf.
