Kai NRG Posted June 27, 2015 Location: E06 Tags: Civil, Building, Vehicle, Land Vehicle, Exploration Now this is my kinda life. No specimens, no crazy alien ships, no oblivious scientists... Hey there, Guy! Hello J.S! Brought that softener? Sure did! Great! How are things going? They're going awesome man! You wouldn't believe where I was this morning! Where? Oh, over on Jurin II. Awesome place man! Really? I've had enough of that sort of stuff, you know. Yeah, but Hannibal is making things easier for us. You know he's our new Branch Executive. Wait... you mean we have a new Branch Executive? Yeah, he got promoted I guess! So... no more sample crazy scientists? You bet not! In fact, we're all on vacation pretty much. I'm telling you man, Jurin is a beautiful place! Tropical islands, fantastic climate, sandy beaches... Hmm... this is kind of a lackluster job here, working in the laundry room... but then, it does keep me out of those nerve wracking situations... Nerve wracking situations? You're kidding me! It's a paradise out there! Well... I don't know... Man, I'm telling you, if you don't jump on this, you just don't know what you're missing! Beautiful beaches, gorgeous sunsets, lush vegetation... You know what, you're right! No more of this stinky laundry! Now you're talking! And you know, we might even have a clash with Mantis in there somewhere! Well, see you on the other side then! See you! um... wait up!. What was that about Mantis?... oh well, never mind. No more fabric softener for me! I'm getting back in the cockpit once again! Guy K. Wynd, reporting! Sure does feel good to be back! Good to have you Guy! On your way to Jurin II? Yes sir! Alright, have a good time! Oh, and watch out for Mantis. Signing off! You know, I'm starting to have second thoughts about this. Why do I keep hearing about Mantis? Oh well, how bad could they be anyways? * * * Well, J.S. was right. This place is just awesome! Thanks little guy. But I'd really prefer a donut to an apple... *crash* What. was. that?!? MeeMawMeeMaw... *splash* Wow. I didn't know robots were programmed to run away! Um... *gulp* Can I ask what you're doing here? Okay! I'll take that for a nooooo...! This is not my idea of a vaaacaaaatioooon!! * * * Hannibal, what's the fastest way off this planet? What's that? What's the fastest way off this planet?!?! Okay, so, what planet are you on again? A shot of the whole (new) laundry room! Overview of the island retreat - before it was invaded. And a view of the M.A.N.T.I.S. walker! Thanks for checking it out! I had a good deal of fun with this one, especially with the little Mantis thing! I believe it's the first time I've used a spinner in a MOC too! C&C appreciated as always! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
