When They Were Kids...


Bronze Knight

 

Posted

* Lord Recluse was sent to the Principal's office for putting spiders in the girls' hair.

* Ghost Widow was a Grateful Dead groupie.

* Lord Nemesis was the nerdy kid who always asked if he could exceed the 5 page limit on his book report plot summary.

* Positron would always wear the same set of clothes until his mother threatened to burn them if he didn't change.

* Westin Phipps was the kid who would talk politely to your face then try to sell your kidneys to local gangs when you were elsewhere.

* Blue Steel used to protect Chuck Norris from bullies on the schoolyard.

* Citadel was a Commodore 64.

* Fusionette had a deep affection for candy and vans.

* Foreshadow was that kid nobody liked because he acted like he knew everything.

* Synapse had Attention Deficit Dis... oh look! A bunny!

* Captain Mako's mother had rather extreme methods of punishment... the most memorable one being what she did to him for not eating his fish sticks.

* Willie Wheeler ran for class president every year... and every year he only got one vote. (They wouldn't accept the write-in vote from his mother.)

* Montague Castanella never could get that "pick a card... any card" trick right.

* Scirocco was a whiny little kid with a "why me" attitude who moped around when he wasn't getting beaten up by the bigger kids. He has since changed... he is no longer a little kid.

* Silver Mantis forged her parents' signatures on the school permission slip allowing the Principal to spank students as a means of punishment.

* Back Alley Brawler? Mutton Chops. Big, Hairy Mutton Chops.

* Lanaru the Mad's parents thought he was "just going through a phase."

* Captain Castillo suffered from terminal shyness and bad self-esteem.

* Infernal had trouble making friends.

* Emperor Cole was an okay kid until the Principal let him have a turn as Hall Monitor... the power went right to his head and the rest is history.

Steelclaw, I found myself thinking, "Well, of course" as I read each one of these.

It is so well done, I am not sure if this is a comedy list or a documentary!


"How do you know you are on the side of good?" a Paragon citizen asked him. "How can we even know what is 'good'?"

Don't forget how he once handed in a 5 page summary of Catcher In the Rye and, through a series of brilliant actions, actually summarized the cult classic A Clockwork Orange by tricking six other students into writing the report for him after they did his laundry, took the blame for that one time he toilet-papered the principal's house and gave him all their lunch money.

Mr. G went to every school dance without a date. Not because he was just that interesting...he was just that unpopular.

* Jim Temblor always just managed to see the van speeding away with Fusionette inside.

* Steelcaw had tons and tons of notebooks and binders full of lists, notes, jokes, spreadsheets, stories, scripts, plots, plans and ideas all over his bedroom.

The Clockwork King always had the best action figures.

Manticore was the first kid to get the newest toy.

They were all good but these were awesome.

Ummm.... well... I once had a job where my only responsibility was staying awake from 11 at night to 7 in the morning... to pass the time I created my own role playing game.... basically a Professional Wrestling combat system..

By the time I was done it was 136 hand-written pages in a notebook.

So yeah.... good guess.

Yep... At a high-rise condominium. I was DOORMAN! Protector of Privacy and Carrier of Luggage!

I should make a character of that version of me someday... heh.

And thus Doorclaw was born...

-Swan was one of "those" children that had a problem with clothes.

-Sister Psyche kept asking for piggy-back rides.

-Aurora always gave piggy-back rides.

-Sunstorm kept being convinced to drop fireworks into the toilets, ruining everything.

-Ms. Liberty was a cheerleader who always swore she was cool with the nerds.

-Trapdoor wasn't really that bad, but everyone hated him, oddly. He always wore a shirt that said "L2P."

I chuckled at the Citadel one

Why did Citadel steal Zapp Brannigan's title?


@Blaze Moon, Blaze Moon the 2nd

This is where something more interesting than my global and this sentence would be.

And amazingly, the principal never ever questioned why Silver Mantis kept being sent to his office at least once per day (even on weekends).

Castle always had cereal with his breakfast, which is part of a perfectly balanced meal.

Sister Psyche aced all of her tests. Everyone always wondered why when little Billy wrote down "I don't know" on his answer sheet, Sister Psyche wrote on her sheet, "me either."

Crimson and Indigo would never talk to each other directly. They would always use friends to relay messages to one another.

Once you learn that this continued even after she graduated, a theory takes shape...
