That was my favorite pic in the entire story; I may have it printed and framed.

It was very hard, as I said, but it was something that I felt I had to do. I was determined to put the spectre of Imposter's away once and for all and give Frankie the long-overdue happy ending she never got before. She got it, and I will do everything I can to give her everything else she deserves as well, and the rest of the cast, too. No break, though; there's much more to be done, more stories yet to be told, more unfinished business to be dealt with. Some of it I've dropped hints about here and there but which stories will be told and how they'll turn out, well, we'll see when they happen.

Aw, how heartwarming was that? It's so nice to see Frankie and Madame Foster's relationship becoming normal again. And hell yeah, Frankie actually got her vacation!

As for the YouTube clip...hilarious. Simply hilarious XD

Two takes for the video. The first was for the video itself, the second was for the audio track. A little fiddling with Windows Movie Maker was all it took after that.

And holy crap. How do you get people to be abducted?

He won't be back. Abduction courtesy of a game hack. In any case, Goofball is gone, taken by the Zhodani for their own inscrutable purposes. But that's just one way I can deal with characters who cross the line. The next character who sufficiently fracks me off may not be so lucky.

On to the newest pics...

Foster's Valley - Ten mildly amusing random pics

A fateful encounter outside the Wildebrat residence:



"So, Richie Wildebrat, we meet again!" Actually they got along quite well and spent much of the afternoon playing cops and robbers. When dinnertime rolled around, Bloo ate heavily, belched good and loud (which Richie and Blake laughed at), and went home. He did call to say thank you the next day, but I think Mac made him do it. Bloo's been seen a lot around town lately; since the show started airing in the Valley he's been desperately trying to turn himself into a celebrity. Sounds like something he'd do. He hasn't actually watched a full episode, but he knows he's on TV and naturally his already inflated ego inflated a little more. Like it wasn't big enough already.

Dylan Lee, professional womanizer and full-time jerk:



You already know what happened next so I won't bore you with the pics. Suffice it to say that Amanda was not amused, and she hits harder than Frankie. A lot harder. The next day, Dylan saw her at the mall and had the nerve to whistle at her. She slapped him but good. Go ahead, Mr. Lee, play with fire. Just don't say I didn't warn you.

xxxClaire enjoys a private moment with her new mp3 player:



Classic. This pic was taken the morning after the Foster's cast visited the Never Forgotten house. I think she's listening to some death metal band. Having a good time, Claire? Later that same day X_dummkoff_x had a good time, although Imaginary light did not:



I have no idea what prompted this. Boredom, I guess. One minute they're chatting amicably, the next, whammo! Just one of those things, I suppose. Happens a lot.

Ah, the delightfully pungent aroma of IT:



Sparky got the recipe from Frankie during the visit (before Frankie found the disc). There are many ways to prepare a proper batch of IT; this one involved rhubard, mushrooms, and what appeared to be pork liver. Fetid, yeah, but you can't argue with success. You can't eat it, either.

Fomalhaut wandered into the house that afternoon and came upon an all too-familiar sight:



You can almost hear her wondering what kind of nuthouse this is. The blonde girl is Aimee, who came with the game and came home from school with Jekylljuice. The pillow fight was almost inevitable. Jekylljuice wandered off to grab a snack or some such thing, Aimee and Fomalhaut chatted, and Linestra and xxxClaire invited them to come and have some real fun:



I have no idea why using this weird thing makes everyone float but I'm pretty sure that there's no helium involved. They stayed glued to it until after midnight. Fomalhaut and Aimee eventually went home; Linestra and xxxClaire eventually passed out. It was pretty funny.

Breakfast the next day:



Jekylljuice ponders about the meaning of life and the relationship between man and Bubble Blower while Lynnie tells her to straighten up her neck, do you want it to freeze like that? No freezing, fortunately, and yes it does happen, courtesy of an occasional glitch. Lynnie did the dishes, Jekylljuice went to class, and I went to Foster's, where I watched Bendy and Wilt build a pair of snowmen:



I leave it to you to figure out which Imaginary Friend made which snowman. A wrong guess entitles you to a free post in the "Signs you've watched too little Foster's" thread. Nice job to both of them. Wilt gets a high-five; Bendy gets an appointment with the school psychologist. Eduardo made a snowman as well, and in the final pic a visitor checks it out:



Yep, it's a penguin. It gets very cold in the Valley some nights. The penguin also shows up if there are fresh fish available on the lot, which he will eat and then piddle on the lawn. Sometimes this game is so weird.

That about covers it. Up next: more pics and a few minor things for y'all to think about. Stay tuned.
