Drabble Repost

Inspired by Ben Edlund's little "Spoooooooon!" shout-out in this week's "Angel", I'm reposting my old sunday100 drabble.

Deep Down in the City of ...The City

"Nothing in the world is the way it ought to be, Connor. But that's why there's us. Champions!"

"So evil-doers, prepare! Because you know what Champions eat. They eat Wheaties! And it's time for us to drench the City with our milky justice, and make breakfast of the forces of Darkness!"

"SPOOOOOOOOOON!"

Connor silently regarded the blue stranger. He was strong, nigh-invulnerable, and tirelessly devoted to stamping out all forms of injustice. However, listening to his mixed-up, homily influenced blather was even worse than living with Angel.

And, he'd rather go back to Quartoth than wear a moth costume.

Carpeted Man, now he could really cook up a storm. And that orangutan side-kick, I wanted to know more about him...

Yeah. And what's up with the Human Bullet? How can anyone survive all those concussions.

Sadly, we only had the one series in the U.K, so I've only ever seen glimpses of the 'little wooden boy' and Speak. I have all thefirst series episodes on tape though, although they're starting to wear a little thin now. Particularly The Bread Master's: "he baked a muffin...that stole my car!!"

::sighs::

So nice to meet another Tick devotee though. Over here, we are a rare breed.
