Warrior Water
Dec. 29th, 2004 01:57 amJust had a long, long, long complicated dream, involving Guy Gardner in his armoured up Warrior form. We were about to crash land somewhere so he made like a crash pod with soft inside bits and armour on the outside. And when we moved about he kind of gasped then grred very carefully 'Stay still. You are treading on my internal organs.' Which sounded a lot more tough-guy in the dream. And then we crashed, and for a while I wasn't up to walking, much less running, so he made his armour act like a mecha pod with me on the inside and he was all running around doing hero stuff with me stuck to the front like... okay, 'like a baby in a carry harness' isn't exactly sexy, and it felt sexy, but that is pretty descriptive. And then we got separated. I'm not sure why. When I was next paying attention, there were cows. And a lot of, er, cow-mud. So I made boots. Big stompy boots, of red armour. And eventually all over armour, mostly hiding under my clothes, and a frame to keep my backpack from dragging at my shoulders, and then a breathing mask when I was in the machine that did my hair in less than 30 seconds - really badly. I was trying to get it colored red to match the armour, but it only managed on the outer layers, and even then it was drippy and unfinished. I thought at the time my armour had interacted poorly with the machine, but when I went into a different hairdresser with human workers so I could get it fixed they said 'Oh, Heat huh'. Which was the exact color I'd chosen. Grrr.
And then it turned confusing and complicated and involved a lot of running to find a new hairdresser after the last one screwed up my hair worse. I think I was on my way to having Guy-hair. Not of the good.
ANYways, why this was all interesting is- either I was Vuldarian and didn't know it, and that was why Guy was protecting me in the first place, but something about his presence triggered my transformation. Or the armour is simply contagious under the right circumstances. Cause I didn't drink any Warrior Water (that I know of).
(Yes, I know it was a dream and they frequently lack internal logic. Go with me here, its a story.)
Guy being the only Vuldarian on the planet, fair enough, the only one to survive the transformation. Guy being the only one to carry the genes? Not so likely. And making a many thousand year breeding program to make only *one* last-of-the-race Guy? Not such the good idea. Because there are standard and approved strategies for not being the last of your race, and they involve a lot of girls. Unless Vuldarians really can get pregnant. If they designed the original problem to be non-recurring then they would plan for a hermaphroditic offspring who could continue the race even if they were the last. So the whole Girl Gardner thing could be Dementor with an 'I know something you don't know' funny.
But if not, if Guy is just a Guy, there need to be girl-Vuldarians. And lots of sex. And making all the girls go far away and drink the water would be logical only if you do not in fact want the experiment to work. If you just want someone altered only enough to carry a fully Vuldarian child then Guy could be carrying around a set of triggers without knowing it, and trigger the transformation in a suitable girl. And then there would be sex.
Not that I'm obsessed with sex and Guy Gardner. But come on, isn't 'Hey, I'm the last of my race, I must breed!' right up there with 'All our men died. Happy.' in the cliche alien chat up lines?

*big grin of pervy invention*
Superpowered sex lives obviously need much thinking about.
