I’d bet you money at least one attempt would pop up on youtube before long. Even more certain if they were Apple brand lighters.

Thanks for replying, it’s fun to learn a bit about how this whole universe came together.

The lack of apostrophe is a plot point in the JK episodes, hinting at a secondary meaning of the name. But it’s fun to see it suddenly pop up in an utterly different context.

Very likely. Ghosts Forge/Ghost’s Forge was a place name that Eastwood/Stuart had used since very early on in pre-EN world-building. It was the setting of the very first forum roleplay in the proto-EN universe, in the Year of Your Lord, Two-Thousand-and-Oh-Two. The apostrophe has varied over time, as it does in real place names incorporating a possessive. Now Stuart is known to claim that he never comes up with anything original, just steals from various sources. One night, while chatting with Silversword, I suddenly wondered whence, if this were true, “Ghosts Forge” had originated. Thirty seconds’ quick Googling turned up Jonathan Creek as a likely candidate. Never watched it meself, but I know Stuart to be a fan.

You know I was just rereading the comic and I realized that Virus has done this before. Be all righteous and then show that he isn’t so much ^ . ^ http://exterminatusnow.co.uk/2003-10-17/comic/meet-the-crew/holy-symbol/ though I suppose looting a church is a bit different then leaving behind your symbol of office….

Raise you ten and bet it falls onto a demon’s head, breaking it. Twenty quid says the demon it falls on is the spider woman.

Dunno, on one hand, it’s too obvious for a Chekhov’s Gun.

Across from Starbucks and the local furniture outlet. You can get a divorce and redecorate your house in one visit. No need to worry about a renting a reception hall, they sell cheesecake and coffee next door. The jeweler is just up the hall, and that pesky prenuptial agreement can be signed immediately. And, for couples who want to memorialize the occasion there are photo booth’s and crystal cutters galore.
