>Place SOG on table and proceed to contact friends. Also congratulate yourself for a well executed SWEET YOUTH ROLL
>Gourd: Dissapearify.
Sometimes I wish I could go to those meet-ups and stop being such a shut-in, bluh.
==> Put the SOG on the table and go contact your friends.
You plop the PUMPKIN on the FOOD-PREP ISLE on your way in. Looks like your UNCA didn't come home last night either.
Oh well, it's not like he'll never come back. That would be just silly!
You also take a moment to say hi to LOGAN.
==> Get on with the serving!
Yeah yeah. You go through a bunch of stuff nobody wants to read. Sollaris is now in the Medium, saving Agate's ungrateful-yet-shapely posterior from certain doom. You hope.
==> Pumpkin: What pumpkin?
Against all odds, the gourd completely fails to disappearify, or even disappear. It's possible that it was disappearified and replaced in some fashion in the same instant, giving the impression that it never left, but that would just be silly. Nope, definitely just staying put.
Huh.
Weird.

==> Combine hair with shirt.
STRAND OF HAIR && OLD MUSIC NOTE SHIRT = HAIR SHIRT.
....Huh. Maybe if you combine it the other way? You think this is how Lerk told you to...
STRAND OF HAIR || OLD MUSIC NOTE SHIRT = MUSICAL HIPPIE WIG.
Yeeeeeeah you're not going to to mix your hair with anything for a while. This thing is kind of horrific.
You shove the travesties elsewhere - maybe you could convince Agate to wear that wig? - and try combining less nightmarish things.
SHEET MUSIC && SPARE COAT = COAT OF HOMORHYTHM
Now this thing is pretty cool! You're certain Peg and maybe even Sollaris would have a word to say on its tackiness, but you don't care. It's amazing.
SHEET MUSIC || SPARE COAT = Le Cuciture Con Mille
You get a wad of paper that appears to be the entire script and sheet music of a five day long opera about coats. Huh.
You put that aside for later perusal in favor more alchemization.
MIKE AND AMP && FLATTOP = SCREAMING MACHINE
You get a computer that amplifies and projects the tiniest of sounds for half a mile, rendering stealth impossible.
This thing is absolutely useless. But cool!
MIKE AND AMP || FLATTOP = ????
You do not have nearly enough grist for whatever the heck this creates!
Later, when you have all the upgrades for your alchemiter, you will see exactly what this combination results in, and why it costs so much. Too bad that'll be hours and hours in the future!
Oh well.
SCREAMING MACHINE && COAT OF HOMORHYTHM = RIGHTEOUS ROCKIN' ARMOR
This is the most ludicrous and awesome thing you have ever had the pleasure to wear. You think that will soon be trumped, though.
==> Trump the armor.
You pull out what is certainly not the captchalogue card for the scandalous thing you found in BABE's room. Nope.
You mean, it's not THAT weird when you think about it. Your sister is an adult, and is bound to have adult things. You just didn't except to stumble upon one when rooting through her private drawers.
Feeling paranoid, you quickly punch the card. Now, what to combine it with....?
Ah, the code HE gave you would be interesting....
==> Law of narrative causality: Ruin things just as they're getting good.
If said Law has a personification, you cannot currently access it. You do the next best thing and be Peg.
Peg: Reflect on your triumph over the dreaded feline.
You can't do that because you didn't! Triumph, you mean. After a ridiculous amount of time attempting to chase down the warping cat....thing, it apparently took pity on you and dropped the game discs right in front of you.
Well, A game disc - the client, to be exact. You guess you should do something with this...
Heh, the funny thing is when I suggested that I was thinking of Spongebob's "I heart U" shirt made of eyelashes. So amazingly, exactly what I expected to get.

==> Peg: Go home, install client.
Done and done. You actually installed the disc in your flattop as soon as you could; Junca needed you to be home to get anything to work, though. You really hope you don't need to track down the feline to get the second disc - you're running out of time.
