I've been informed that these cute little creatures are the subject of a thirty-year-old horror film. 'Tis the season for mischief and all that. Though gifting potentially dangerous creatures en masse does seem a bit over the top for a holiday prank. I've switched on the film to find out what we're in for exactly. Is it meant to be a comedy, or should I not be laughing?

Do we need to establish House Rules regarding the Mogwai or have you both pawned yours off on someone else already?

	Nothing says holiday cheer quite like a gift for your child that has the potential for mass homicide. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Welcome to the recall from hell. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The instructions that came in the box with these creatures reads like a review from a disgruntled buyer. Don't feed it, water it, or take it out of the box, lest you want it to reproduce, transform into a monster, or catch fire. The recall writes itself, really. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Sounds like the typical villain's approach to holidays in Gotham. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Holidays were prone to alien invasions on the Earth that I come from. What sort of mayhem are we talking about with your villains? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Alien invasions, sure, but more likely poison in the turkey, sabotaged toys, parade ambushes ... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So the objective is chaos. Doesn't it get exhausting trying to make order out of a city in disorder? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fallenrobin 2017-11-03 04:45 pm UTC (link)
	Sure, but I like watching the bad guys squirm. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spoilers_ 2017-11-03 05:26 pm UTC (link)
	Naturally. Do you get a lot of repeat offenders? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fallenrobin 2017-11-03 10:22 pm UTC (link)
	Gotham as a whole? Sure. Me? Not as often. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I see. I'm unfamiliar with the whole super-villain thing. It sounds tedious. Is that why there are so many of you in that city? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That has way more to do with Bruce's hoarding tendencies than the supervillains. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spoilers_ 2017-11-04 02:15 am UTC (link)
	So it's like a cat hoarding situation. Only with proteges? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fallenrobin 2017-11-04 02:15 am UTC (link)
	Pretty sure it's genetic. Mini-Bruce has already started collecting minions. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I hope your city is faring well in your absence. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fallenrobin 2017-11-04 02:31 am UTC (link)
	No idea. Although they apparently haven't noticed I'm gone. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spoilers_ 2017-11-04 02:58 am UTC (link)
	Interesting. That lends credence to the theory that when we are returned from here, we are deposited at the moment of our removal. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fallenrobin 2017-11-04 03:11 am UTC (link)
	Either that or a splinter universe is created every time one of us leaves. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	spoilers_ 2017-11-04 03:37 am UTC (link)
	A possibility, but that wouldn't explain how your absence in your original time and place went unnoticed. Unless we ourselves are splintered as well? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	fallenrobin 2017-11-04 09:09 am UTC (link)
	Could be. (Reply to this) (Parent)
