It suddenly occurs to you that you haven't eaten in a while.

Fortunately, you can solve this problem and your more immediate one at the same time!

"What, again? This is ridiculous!"

[Image: Fogel1172_zps9939acf5.png]

You're really not that hungry any more. Or mobile, for that matter.

"Oh, what? We ran out? Dammit, this thing's a worthless piece of junk!"

"And of course the light's still blinking. Ugh, this is so dumb."

"I should send a formal request to our Glorious Leader to have the tank's designers executed in front of a firing squad."

"Then again, Glorious Leader doesn't like getting complaints mmff mmff mmfff..."

This explosion is a metaphor for suffocating underneath something like fifty feet of snow. And also for being blown up by a landmine buried underneath something like fifty feet of snow.

It looks like you're going to have to deal with this guy. What's the plan?

Whimbrel Wrote:Give him the lad in exchange for safe passage

In a bold display of courage, you offer the monstrosity your younger self in servitude or something.

[Image: Fogel1200_zps241270c3.png]

However, the duck head - which you suddenly recall is a judge - starts screeching something.

[Image: Fogel1201_zps7616556e.png]

Apparently he wants you to prove you have legal custody over your younger self, or else you can't actually hand him over to the monstrosity. At least, that's what you seem to be getting out of it.

[Image: Fogel1202_zps58061ce5.png]

Ugh, this is a lot of paperwork. How long is it going to take you to figure this out?

[Image: Fogel1203_zpsda034dc6.png]

There. Done. Hopefully you can get things sorted out now.

[Image: Fogel1218_zps3e7bd57d.png]

Oh, great, apparently there's a whole trial to go through too. Ugh, what a pain.

[Image: Fogel1204_zps20c9e66c.png]

You engage in an impassioned argument that, since this kid is you, of course you have legal custody over him and can do whatever you want with him, since in the end you're the one who has to live with the consequences.

[Image: Fogel1205_zpsfb360c19.png]

For example, by keeping him out in the cold for hours on end while you fill out forms and hold a trial, you have to live with the consequences of freezing to death years ago. Namely, disappearing from existence because you couldn't possibly be here.

You decide to make the beast an offer, carefully worded in hopes of causing the heads to fight amongst themselves.

[Image: Fogel1207_zps98f64705.png]

Oh. Wait a minute. Your beard seems to have gone missing, probably while you were riding that chocolate artillery shell. You've got no idea where it is.

Well, if bribery won't work, maybe you can try another approach.

Professor zobot Wrote:The horse head looks educated! Appeal to its sensibilities as a scholar and ask it, as a learned man, not to resort to violence, the last resort of the stupid, and simply to let you pass!

You decide to take your chances with the most reasonable-looking of the heads. Maybe if you can get one on your side, the others will leave you alone.

[Image: Fogel1209_zpsc420552d.png]

What's this?

[Image: Fogel1210_zps5ea35edc.png]

Oh. The horse is running for Senate. Maybe it wants your vote?

[Image: Fogel1211_zps183a52b5.png]

Wait a minute. You're an enemy of the state. Do you even get to vote?

[Image: Fogel1212_zps824ac630.png]

Wait a minute. Corruptia is a dictatorship. Does anyone get to vote?

[Image: Fogel1213_zpsf554c332.png]

Wait a minute. Does Corruptia even have a Senate in the first place?

[Image: Fogel1214_zps42d535f0.png]

Oh. Apparently it doesn't.

[Image: Fogel1217_zps12708a90.png]

And apparently this would-be Senator is upset by the fact that there's no Senate for it to run for, and it's inclined to take its anger out on you.

What are you going to do about it?

RE: You Are About 10 Seconds Away From Execution By Firing Squad - AgentBlue - 01-04-2014

Make a makeshift senate out of snow, declare it the official senate, vote for Incitatus and get oats.

RE: You Are About 10 Seconds Away From Execution By Firing Squad - Dragon Fogel - 05-30-2014

Andorxor Wrote:>Inform him that he can't be a judge and senator at the same time

In fact, even if there were a senate, wouldn't it be a conflict of interest to serve as a senator and a judge at the same time?

[Image: Fogel1220_zps4270c2f1.png]

Oh, uh, maybe this wasn't the best time to think of that.

[Image: Fogel1221_zpsdc951dd8.png]

But the duck agrees with you! He explains that according to the precedent for habeus corpus, without equity of redemption the horse has to forgo cross-examination in a trial in absentia.

[Image: Fogel1222_zpsfcf49ddb.png]

The horse responds that the judge's argument is based on incumbency and as he hasn't earmarked any gerrymandering for this legislative session, his response is to launch a filibuster.

[Image: Fogel1223_zpsc8532caf.png]

The judge retorts that, ex post facto, the horse has culpability for no lo contendere, and without casus belli, the only way to keep the injunction out of double jeopardy is a hung jury.

[Image: Fogel1224_zps12376ae1.png]

Oh, and apparently you were the jury. Well, at least the argument's settled, right?

Professor zobot Wrote:Well, if Corruptia doesn't have a senate, then it's obvious what must happen. If it wishes to evoke cultural change that will bring a senate about, The Horse-head must, as a learned entity, engage in civil disobedience. Resisting the present regime is the only way that change may occur. By letting you go here, just a simple act of allowing you your freedom, it could set the foundation for a better Corruptia! It could be known as the Horse that brought democracy to Corruptia someday!

"Wait! Listen, I know you're upset, but I have a solution to your problem!"

[Image: Fogel1226_zps19d67dcf.png]

"We could depose my grandmother! We could form a new Corruptia, one founded on greater principles!"

[Image: Fogel1227_zpsb718377b.png]

"A Corruptia that stands for justice! Equality! Having an elected Senate! Then you can serve as the Senator you were always meant to be!"

[Image: Fogel1228_zpsd3949bfd.png]

Well, they seem to be interested. Hopefully your rousing speech has won you a new ally!

[Image: Fogel1229_zps294b4530.png]

Or not. This calls for a different approach.

"How about if I just build a senate out of snow and then vote you into it, then?"

[Image: Fogel1231_zps8c463eb0.png]

Yeah, of course it agrees with the plan that's a lot more work.

[Image: Fogel1232_zpsd0194ce4.png]

You get your younger self to help out. Luckily, he's pretty eager to play around with snow.

[Image: Fogel1233_zps4bbb2d76.png]

Phew, you're finally done. Just one more step.

[Image: Fogel1235_zps48e5b62c.png]

There's got to be an election!

[Image: Fogel1236_zpsf441740d.png]

The election goes to Incitatus!

[Image: Fogel1238_zpsd6ec5f71.png]

And he immediately delivers on his campaign promise.

[Image: Fogel1239_zps70b831ce.png]

"So this is where you've been, Aureliano! Do you even realize how long I've been looking for you?"

[Image: Fogel1240_zps152d0954.png]

"Honestly, I was worried your younger self might have frozen to death! But it looks like you've found him for me, so we can get things back on track now."

[Image: Fogel1241_zpsac575e13.png]

Oh, hey, it looks like Incitatus isn't happy about having his political career ended so suddenly.

[Image: Fogel1242_zpsa9a71556.png]

"Oh dear, it looks like I'll have to use the shock system. Silly disobedient abomination!

"Oh, that's right, I just have one button for all the pain chips."

[Image: Fogel1245_zpsd079835e.png]

"Well, that was troublesome. General, take care of my good-for-nothing grandson while I get the propulsion systems working again."

[Image: Fogel1247_zpsdf1d0dc7.png]

Oh, hey, this guy is a general after all! You were never quite sure about that.

So what are you going to do?

[Image: Fogel1249_zps5bb8083c.png]

Wait... Technically your youth hasn't been spent yet.

[Image: Fogel1250_zps631104d0.png]

You tell your younger self to seek out the great martial arts guru who probably lives in the mountains and to train yourself with a code phrase so that you will forget about the skills until this very moment.

[Image: Fogel1251_zps8f1f40f3.png]

[Image: Fogel1252_zpsbf50ad86.png]

Ugh. You finally made it. Man, this was a boring trip, better than that stupid vacation though.

[Image: Fogel1254_zps31ff14ce.png]

"Welcome, child. No doubt you have gone through many hardships to come here."

[Image: Fogel1255_zps754a8824.png]

"Many have sought my wisdom, and many have failed. You are one of the few courageous and skilled enough to make it here, and so you are worthy to learn from me."

[Image: Fogel1256_zps0470f97f.png]

"However! I have much wisdom, and little time to share it. You may only ask one thing of me, for I can teach no more than that to a single pupil. Think carefully of what you will ask for."

Man, what's this guy going on about? Why were you even looking for him in the first place?

[Image: Fogel1258_zpsce7eb594.png]

"Can we make an awesome snow fort?"

[Image: Fogel1259_zps150ec771.png]

"A very wise choice, my child. Of all my many skills, my talent at making structures out of snow may well be my greatest."

[Image: Fogel1260_zpsc473d1e9.png]

"You have learned all that I have to teach, child. But be warned: when you leave this mountain, you shall forget these talents until the time is right. Only when the proper words are spoken shall you recall your gift."

[Image: Fogel1262_zpsb95f8b3b.png]

"Yeah, whatever. I'm bored. Cool snow fort, though."

[Image: Fogel1263_zps3a65d8f0.png]

Meanwhile, days before this whole thing happened and years in the future from your perspective, you attempt to recall the secret knowledge you gained. Mostly you're hoping that your guess for the magic words that unlock your knowledge is right.

[Image: Fogel1264_zps93ba7a16.png]

Yes, these are the right words. You feel the lost knowledge flowing into your mind.

[Image: Fogel1265_zps5b30b580.png]

You ready yourself to face your foe. You will do this!

[Image: Fogel1266_zpsf5d2676e.png]

Wow, this is way cooler than your Snow Senate.

You can pretty much guess what happens next.

You don't know where this knowledge came from, but you can tell that it will aid you now.
