Yeah, Sultan Selim II "the drunkard" wanted the best wine in the world, so he sent his fleet to conquer Cyprus, for example...

Hello Ms. Vivien.
Welcome. Though you understand that I suspect all new members of being alter egos of the current group of miscreants...especially that dasterdly Weasel...
*Crosses out Ysh and writes in 'G-e-o-r-g-i' in big red crayon*: You underestood! Someone actually understood something I'd said?!

*Viv had not thought of that, Viv now thinks of clever and distracting come back.*
Let's see...first of all, it was a suggestion to practice. If Georgi was there, I'm sure she'd understand Plus, are you a DarkFlame, or a DarkFlame! *isn't even sure what that means*
Look! Over there! A puffin!
okay okay!! you win!! *confused expression*

LOL, well Waverly probably just wanted to make sure you were for real before he started flirting...
*ahem* Do I look like Ysh...?
I'm not wearing bar towels, for one thing...

Well, considering the outbreak of alteregos a while back, it's not surprising
Everyone gets accused of being an alterego
Ummm, nonalcoholic, of course... it's tea

Tenchi tea!

I make mistakes like that all the time
I noticed and fixed it. *puts the ductape back in her case*
Georgi: Oh Queen? Are you expecting your crown? I believe DP has that as well
Mr. Sleep: I've heard of 'Goody' from oldtimers like yourself
That was with Weasel and Waverly and a bunch of other men?...together...talking...no women in sight except for the occasional one who would be run off...
No wonder you all turned to Puffins
