Robin: Allright, your turn, Talon.
	Talon: Okay, but give me a moment to think here, Robin.
	Robin: Sure. Take your time.
	Chance: ... Robin, what are you doing?
	Robin: What does it look like? I'm playing Chess with Talon.
	Chance: I don't want you playing any of your sneaky little tricks on him, Robin.
	Robin: My, how rude! What on Phainein makes you think I'd do something like that?
	Chance: Maybe because of the time you conned Raymond out of all of his money by playing a card game with him?
	Robin: It's not my fault he was such a bad player.
	Chance: It is your fault that you were making up the rules as you went along.
	Talon: I think it's okay, Chance. We're not playing for money.
	Robin: Yes. Besides, I'd play with Chester, but he's preoccupied at the moment...
	Chester: Dude, okay, this time, I'll be O's. Dammit! Lost again. Okay, I'll be O's again... Dude! WTF? Okay, one more try. I think I'll get it this time... Consarnit!!
	Chance: ...and you still love this guy?
	Robin: If I didn't, who would?
	Honen: Stupid children, don't you know how to be quiet? A mad scientist can't do any research around here with you making so much noise, ay?
	Chance: Watch it, Honen. I'm the librarian here, not you.
	Talon: Sorry, Dr. Calzoun. We didn't mean to interrupt you.
	Honen: Bah...zit...nevermind.
	Talon: ... So, um, what exactly are you researching?
	Honen: Why you want to know, mountaindevil?
	Talon: Uh, just curious...Um, something else I wanted to ask. It's been kind of bothering me for some time now...
	Chester: Dude, crap, man...I just can't figure this game out...
	Robin: Try being the X's, Chet.
	Chester: Oh, dude...didn't think of that. I'll give it a try...
	Honen: You were saying, mountaindevil?
	Talon: Well, I know how you like...want to conquer all the beings who have magical powers...But what about me? I have magic in my blood, but I can't actually use it. So, um, technically, I'm not a magic-user. But it is still there in my blood. So, would you have to crush me, too?
	Honen:
	Robin: Woo...tree in the woods...
	Chance: Talon?
	Talon: Oh, yes, Chance?
	Chance: Please don't ask questions like that around here. The universe might implode again.
	Talon: Oh, sorry...
	Chester: WOO-DOGGIES!! WILLYA LOOK AT THAT!! I played as the X's AND I FINALLY WON!! Dude, I am awesome!!! Thanks for the tip, Robin.
	Robin: *sigh* I just hope THAT doesn't cause the universe to implode.
FWOOMP!!!
	Talon: Whoah, what the heck?
	Chester: Dude!
	Robin: Universe implosion?
	Chance: No. Power outage.
	Honen: 3rd time zis week. Should we do someting?
	Chance: No, sit tight. Let Lizaki and Deuce handle it.
	Talon: I never noticed it before, but I appear to have hazel eyes.
	Robin: I wonder what could be causing these blackouts?
	Chester: Dude, I think it has something to do with that.
	Chance: With what?
	Chester: That.
	Talon: Gah! Is it a ghost? A haunted chess piece? Wha..?
	Chance: More like Robin's magic tricks.
	Robin: No not me, I swear it. And no one else in this room is psionic or magical...
	???: Oh, no, that was just me, I bumped the table when I woke up.
	Robin: Ack! Who is that?
	???: The only person around here who doesn't have eyes.
	Robin: Zumo?! What the hell are you doing under the table??
	Zumo: I told you I was asleep. I couldn't help it. Honen's research always has that effect on me.
	Honen: Wretched worm! Dat's where you been all zis time?
	Zumo: Chill, man, I'll go scope out the power situation since I don't need light to see. And...by the way...you've got some serious eyeball deformity goin' on there, man.
	Honen: Aye, yai, yai. Ver stupide.
	Chester: Dude, if we were an animated cartoon, we'd be saving big time on the animation bill right now.
	Robin: But we're not, so I guess all we're really saving is a little bandwidth.
	Honen: And according to my research, zis site uses only 1% of itz alloted bandwidth.
	Talon: Seriously? Is that what you've been researching all this time?
	Honen: Aye. I had to make sure zis website had enough space for me to upload all my work.
	Talon: Cool! We must have an awesome host.
	Chance: Honen, stop trying to turn Talon into a blatant promo for our webhosting service.
	Zumo: ELLLLLL-O! We have power in 5, 4, 3, 2...
FWOOMP!!!
	Robin: Well, thank goodness that's over.
	Zumo: You're telling me. For awhile there, I thought I wasn't going to actually appear in my first appearance in this series.
	Chance: Any idea what caused it, Zumo?
	Zumo: Yeah. Seems there's a giant cat roaming loose in the ventilation system. It keeps tripping the power cords.
	Chester: Dude! Now that the power's back, I can play another game... Dude...this could be really difficult...I have yet to score a point.
	Robin: *sigh* Checkmate, Talon.
	Talon: Well, at least I'm still doing better than Chester! >D
