As the muns plot ((Compy post))

So, yes, the muns are plotting. Poor Maddie, the target of that plotting. Little does she know that as she goes into the Compy Lab to see what horrorswonders await her.

Behold, the shiny technology.

Behold, the intrawebs.

Behold, the BBS, which, only occasionally like the BBC, is calling her name.

Actually, I don't believe the BBC called Maddie.

The mun has a disgraceful habit of following bunny trails in Maddie's posts. Let us get to the point, if you please.

Maddie goes into the Compy Lab and after registering the very clever screenname of "MysteryAuthor" posts the following:

As one who is new to this bulletin board service style of posting,
I was wondering how does one integrate this into normal social gatherings? 
Is it an adjunct to mixers and face to face contact or a replacement for them?


Maddie really doesn't know much about these things.

Alternate? Zex is confused. Alternative to what?

"I'm afraid I don't know what you mean- I'm alien to this place and not terribly well-acquainted with its customs.

Is there any specific behavior that would trouble you?"

Certainly- My people have that custom. You aren't upset by it, are you? Most people around here seem to wear clothes, but I have noticed one or two exceptions.

Alright! If you want to know, I'll be wearing a black VUX military uniform with badges. I hope you are not put off by it!
As I've said before, I'm not from here and that- tends to bother some people. But I have an open mind! And will be looking forward to meeting you. How can I recognize you?

((The whole 'forgot to mention I have tentacles' thing is inexcusable, really. Let's just say he thinks she might know what a VUX is.))
