Rhymescribe? The plot thickens. :-)

Author's Response:

in this case, I'm slightly satirizing the DC Comics 1970s concept, where the Justice League, by means of the Flash's cosmic treadmill, went to Earth-Prime, where super heroes only appear in comics. There they met the staff of DC who created them, and had to find a way back to their own earth-one. I thought, I'd split the word prime into "prose" and "rhyme" to play on my own mixture of narrative text and poetry.

Eye Box, huh? Does this mean the next masochist on the menu will be "Command U-2-Eat-Me?"

Author's Response:

Could be, with Mother Box, Brother Eye, and the Inferior 5 all being sent up here.

"He?" As in the late, lamented, non-super Jacoby?

Author's Response:

not late yet... and maybe never

Are these Space Girls from the planet Zigazig-ugh, by any chance?

Author's Response:

I don't know. Can Encylopedia Carycomica provide any information about this planet.... such as Terry forming, whoever Terry may be LOL?

"Get your Slipper Cycles movin'.
Head out on the Fly Way!
Lookin' for adventure...

Author's Response:

Yes, and what would the tune be?

You know, you'd probably get a kick out of the "Alternate Earths" section @ Jeff Christiansen's "UHOTMU (Unofficial Handbook Of The Marvel Universe) Appendix" website.

Author's Response:

Sure would. Thanks!

This ongoing inside-the-stomach plot intrigues me. Keep it going please.



Author's Response:

Well it won't go on forever, but there are similar elements throughout the story, as you've probably already found out.

1) I know. But, Jack Kirby (nee Jacob Kurtzenberg) was often affectionately referred to, by Stan Lee et al., as "King" Kirby.

2) I was well aware of the mythological aspect. But, I also know that the Australian desert lizard I was alluding to is sometimes also referred to as "the moloch" (emphasis on the lower case m). I could even send you a zoological clip from Youtube, if you like!

Author's Response:

Well I didn't know of the Australian lizard until Encyclopedia Carycomica mentioned it. As for Molech, he was a false god myth, but people nonetheless followed it and actually sacrificed their own children in fires. Awful part of human history for sure.

Jacoby Kurk, eh? What royal-sounding nickname will you give him, I wonder: Duke or Earl?

;-D

Seriously, though? Thanks for sharing these add-ons. They helped to alleviate a lot of midday boredom!

Author's Response:

Actually, he's a sendup of comic writers' names eg Jack Kirby.

"Mike's Roman; Mike's Roman.
Inside her stomach till he grows old.
He'll be forever 'Roman'
Within Brandi Gold."

Sorry; for some reason, I was reminded of an eighteenth-century British naval song from Disney's THE SCARECROW OF ROMNEY MARSH.

Author's Response:

Well I guess he'll be roman around in there somewhere ("roaming")

Just one question: is that "molech" as in the Australian horned dragon?*

* #My fellow American readers: the above is a lizard similar to the southwestern U.S. horned "toad."

Author's Response:

Re previous review, btw, readers are not meant to like the Prime Minister of Australia in this story.

And now re Molech, he was the pagan false god of child sacrifice in the old testament, and hence I thought his modern followers would be suitable villains to be taken down in this story... and I do mean down, down, down LOL.

#My fellow American readers: the kiwi is the national bird of New Zealand. Totally endemic to that island! But, since at least the 1960's, it has also become a generic slang term for expatriate human (as opposed to avian) New Zealanders.

Author's Response:

Yes, and it was the character, rather than the author, who was using that slang to refer to them too.

Well, you said Vector had continued aging within Princess Chunder's stomach. So, I merely surmised that _he_ became a gts-author in his dotage.

Author's Response:

But how would he have written anything in there? Or do you mean after he got out of her stomach?

Date: August 18 2014 11:52 PM Title: Chapter 90: SUB-MOLECH-ULAR UNIVERSE

That's certainly one way to bring down a government. Though I'm almost inclined to say that shrinking is too good for 'em. ;-)

Author's Response:

Ah yes, well I try to be a forgiving Christian, and this is just a sci-fi, and the government did seem like a suitable plot device to use.

Reviewer: Carycomic Signed starstarstarstarstar [Report This]
Date: August 18 2014 9:03 AM Title: Chapter 88: LET THE SHRINKING VOTERS DECIDE

OK! I'm going to be uncharacteristically serious, here, for a moment. This prime minister sounds a lot like the type of paranoid psychiatrists refer to as "self-fulfilling prophets." These are the kinds of people who violently strike out at one or more segments of society they fear (usually, for no good reason). And, when that segment violently retaliates, they loudly proclaim they were right, all along.

God save us from such "allies."

Author's Response:

Well I was surprised to find that an Australian reader Digitaltuna mentioned the Australian government in his review of a recent chapter, and that it struck a chord with him too.

Well, I'm "probably" biased. But, I like my group-name suggestion, better.

I guess that answers the previous question.

I've got a good name already picked out for them: The Just-Us-Tinies League.

What? You don't like Surreptitious and Somewhat Secluded Six?

Like, say, a geriatric author of erotic science fiction?

It would seem we're both Australian, yeah.

Author's Response:

I'm on the outskirts of Sydney, NSW. I've never met or even heard of any Australian woman into giantess vore. The last woman I told about it hasn't spoken to me since I brought it up in April (and she previously said she liked every character trait about me, and that I was "extremely talented writer, and very handsome, to boot.") Two weeks ago, she saw me in a Woolworths aisle, grabbed her kids and bolted in the opposite direction. (I guess telling her that the fantasy worked whenever I looked into her laughing mouth really wasn't such a good idea).

Ah Timescribe, your observation of the current government in Australia is second-to-none. And one could reasonably imagine them acting the same way in this situation. Bravo.

Author's Response:

Thanks for the feedback! Does this mean I've finally found a fellow gts fan in AUSTRALIA?
