Who knew the Mysterons had an LJ?

You find out something new every day. (Although sometimes very belatedly. They don't post a whole lot, either.)

1:36am:
This is Captain Black, relaying a message from the Mysterons.

The Mysterons have spent the last several weeks in seclusion at their citadel on Mars. They have been considering many things, primarily to do with their ongoing war of nerves against your species.

They have been deliberating on the nature of the robotic life form known as spiritrover. They have been observing this being since inadvertently damaging her shortly after her arrival on Mars. They have come to greatly admire her strength, determination, powers of recovery, and independence. This has caused them to re-evaluate much of what they believed to be true about her creators - you Earthmen.

Now their deliberations are complete, and the Mysterons command me to deliver to you this offer:

They will forgive your attack upon their Martian complex and call off their war of nerves against your species if you provide them with spiritrover's telephone number.

Is that all? Message complete? I hope you realize how deeply, deeply embarrassing this is for me. But, of course, you do, or you would have posted the offer yourselves. Don't give me that. The only thing wrong with your computer is its jammed caps-lock key... oh, what now?

Oh, yes. Under these terms, you are also required to keep opportunitygrrl at least 50 kilometers from the pyramids of Cydonia at all times. The Mysterons have nothing against her and follow her LJ, but she is far too chirpy for direct contact.

The Mysterons have spoken.
