PEACE-ING TOGETHER THE PIECES
As seen all throughout the imPort cities:
Word has been spreading about imPort intentions to launch a mission to Mars, and the rumours are running rife with it. Reports of the imPort militarisation of space are catching like wild fire, and concerned native citizens and those who already had an axe to grind against imPorts are finding common cause. A nation-wide day of protest is being planned, with the major sit-ins being staged in all the known imPort populated cities. Come out and show your support!
EAR YE EAR YE
As heard online:
A new imPort-themed podcast had hit the scene! In the wake of a new wave of imPortmania (the kind that always tends to pool around the summer), a fresh podcast built entirely on BACKSTORY GUESSING and LORE BUILDING called MYTHOS AND LEGIONS PODCAST has ascended into trending popularity. Each Wednesday there's a new theme with a selection of imPorts who are discussed in detail by a HIP YET ACADEMIC panel. This last Wednesday showcased the theme of UNLIKELY ALLIES and featured discussion about Danger, Clarisse la Rue, Loki, and Logan Delos.
Please be sure to rate it on PineApple podcasts!
GLAD-I-ATE-HER
As heard by word of mouth and ghosting bwitter accounts:
Ads have been appearing on the dark web, looking for imPorts to sign up for an 'incredibly dangerous and incredibly rewarding' entertainment experience. " Want to be famous? Want to use your powers to their fullest extent? Want to fight your enemies and friends to the death and reign triumphant over a mountain of corpses, until they are resurrected and ready to fight again? Immortal Imports is the show for you! Now taking imPort applicants who can prove they have the stones to face down death against their peers, and return victorious. Interested? Please submit a video of you and your fighting prowess with the hashtag #immortal on bwitter or bluetube, and you'll hear from us soon.
CRANE-KY
As seen on blogs, news sites, and gossip columns:
Import memes have dominated online pages recently. First, there were the adventurous cats discussing various Imports, and now there are the "Condescending Cranes" otherwise known as "Jonathan Crane Being An Asshole". Running rampant online, the meme involves taking a photo of the notorious import and superimposing it with one of his unkind quotes about some subject or other. The bizarre trend creates images that look like this, and many of the newer memes circulating involve him being sarcastic generally
Doctor Crane would only answer that the memes reported are "In essence, all true", though he has yet to report his favorite. Asked about how he feels about the fact many younger people are becoming familiar with him through memes, he replied: "I am happy if they learn from it."
BOOTES-LICIOUS
As seen in the night sky of Maurtia Falls:
Maurtia Falls astronomers remained perplexed for an entire night when it appeared that the constellation Boötes had rearranged itself to form the head and horns of a goat. Strange that this phenomenon was only apparent to residents of Maurtia Falls, and that it happened just on the last night before the summer solstice.
PO-ET CETERA
As seen in local newspapers in all imPort cities:
AND THE WINNER IS...
Kissed a boy so right,
Music played when our lips touched.
Where did it come from?
- Maxwell Carson
Congratulations on your Power Dampener**! The device will be delivered to your residence today!
**Power Dampener is an experimental DARPA prototype that will last exactly two hours after activation. It is a stainless steel bracelet that will depower an imPort to negligible levels of power. It cannot be replicated. After two hours, the hardware will internally leak lithium and self-destruct without bringing any harm to the wearer. Powers will then resume as per normal.
CODE SWITCH
The Homeland Security Advisory System has moved from CAUTIONARY PALE to SWEET SUMMER MILD.
