Chapter 22: Bigfoot Versus The Lochness Monster





 

Side A: Bigfoot Versus The Lochness Monster



While one day randomly visiting the same shore, Bigfoot and The Loch Ness Monster noticed each other. Nessy, overjoyed to discover another monster of mystery such as herself, assumed she had finally found a soulmate, and immediately fell in love. Bigfoot, being a simple-minded creature of instinct, assumed he was under attack and prepared to defend himself from his moist new foe.

An epic grappling match ensued between the two titans: one merely yearning for the embrace that would end a eon of loneliness, the other fighting instinctively for survival, and both unable to realize the other’s objective was opposite their own.

But when it was finally over, they both walked away content, each presuming to be the only victor.


Side B: Vivian O'Blivion In The Jungle of Curious Delights

 

The Prodigal Stunt: Seeking inspiration for a new adventure, Vivian consults the Fortune Teller - whose warning to avoid the Jungle of Curious Delights only intrigues her. Throwing caution (of self-fulfilling prophecies) to the wind, Vivian seeks out and ventures into the Jungle of Curious Delights. Once deep inside, she is pleased to discover many exotic and delicious-looking flowers, which she proceeds to collect and sample.

Saguaro: "Hmm... these flowers are TOO SOFT."

Jurupa: "Umm... these flowers are TOO TOUGH."

Monstera Deliciosa: "Mmm... this flower is JUST RIGHT!"

Cadaver / Can't Have Her: After having collected and eaten various tasty but poisonous Jungle flowers, Vivian becomes ill - first with fever, then bone-chilling shivers, and finally the exhaustion that overcomes her. Soon after, a Wandering Woodsman comes across her unconscious body. He then carries her to the outskirts of the Jungle, where she wakes, thanks him, and gives him her last remaining flower.

Relapse (Don't Do It): Powerless, flowerless, but still curious, Vivian contemplates exploring the Jungle once last time.

Chapter 20: Maverick Monk & The Vow Of Science




 

The Sculptor’s Dream, Maverick Monk & The Vow Of Science: After years of meditation in the Monastery, the candle-carving monk finally concludes that god is an illusion created by god. So he abandons his vow of silence, and begins his pursuit of science.

Rise & Fall of the Automatons: The monk’s first project involves combining his candle-carving skills with his new-found scientific knowledge to fashion automaton altar boys from wax. He presents them to the Abbot, expecting encouragement, but instead receiving a direct order to melt the automatons back into candles and abandon his new blasphemous pursuits once and for all.

Nun of a Kind, Obese with Two Backs, Tip Toe Through the Two Lips: Maverick Monk meets a large, like-minded Nun and visits her in the Rectory.

The Walls of Tarquinius, Death by Dust Bunnies: Discovered by the Abbot, the Monk and the Nun are sealed behind the stone walls of the Monastery’s cellar for all eternity.

The Witch Doctor, Riot in the Abbey: The monk manages to fashion an explosive out of ingredients he finds in the cellar. The explosion shakes the Monastery, and a thousand monks riot around the blasphemous fiery glory.
