[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 2397725, member: 63"] [i]October 29, 2005 2:45 pm[/i] "Robert-san," Wiji-wiji says, "I gotta you zhi tahki reggo." Robert accepts the turkey leg, takes a bite, then notices that one of the turkeys sitting next to Wiji-wiji has no legs. It's not bleeding; rather, it's body is fully smooth. "Good stuff," Robert says, looking off and thinking. "A little dry. Hey, how are you here?" "I ama touristo." "No, I mean, how are you [i]here[/i]? On 'Gaia'? With a flock of turkeys. No wait, don't answer that last one. I don't really care. But yeah, how'd you get here?" The Japanese man chews on his own turkey leg, smiling at Robert with narrow eyes. "We pray gorufu, [i]ne[/i]?" A moment passes when Robert thinks it would be a good idea to kill this man. As fun as he is, he's a little irritating, and this is a bad time for irritation. "Alright," Robert says. "Where does the course start? Oh, and can the others play too?

The stragglers are a one-legged turkey that hops after the flock, and a no-legged turkey that rolls itself across the ground like a ball. Robert heads back inside to let the others know they've been invited to a game of golf. John and Belladonna decide to join in, while Scarpedin stays behind and tries to shape things with his mind, believing he might actually be in The Matrix.
