Hello once again.

This time instead of gloating, we bring you details.

The snakes will be entering the bar from the end of the movie, arriving straight from being sucked out of the plane. So technically, most of them are dead.

This doesn't mean they're not still pissed. Like it states in their userinfo, the snakes are still under the influence of a hormone that makes them very aggressive. They cannot be reasoned with. They cannot be charmed. They just want to kill you. Yeah, you.

There will be some science skewing...obviously, this chemical wouldn't last forever. But the snakes will be affected by it the entire length of their stay in Milliways.


The snakes will have at least one big entrance in the main bar, as a group. Then they'll be off into the walls, drains, closets, and other crevices of Milliways. Individual snakes will show up time to time in the bar bar in open posts, as well as tagging entrances.

Requests are also perfectly fine! The snakes will be only too pleased to come to you.

Feel free to see snakes around and about, as they will be in many places. However! The snakes are not NPCs, so please don't god them. No direct interaction or attacks without at least an e-mail first.


If you don't want to be tagged or spot any snakes, please reply to this post here. This is completely and in all ways optional. I just want to have fun, and let everyone else do so as well.

Anything else, e-mail us at: snakesona(at)gmail(dot)com

Eventually, we'll need a plan to get these mother@#$%in' snakes out of the mother@#$%in' bar. Until then, enjoy! :D

Just sayin' - Snakes are welcome in any and all of my threads. ... Especially Ace. :D :D This is brilliant.

[fighting_mad]

... this is so much brilliance.

I WANT SNAKES WHENEVER I CAN, BABY

[snakes-inna-bar.livejournal.com]

All night long, perhaps...?

[badninja.livejournal.com]

You darn well buy me diner first.

[vivien]

They can't be charmed, but can magic (such as Petrificus Totalus) work on them?

Please say this will be going on at least through the weekend so I can actually play with snakes. :)

[snakes-inna-bar.livejournal.com]

Magic can certainly work on them. Just nothing mood altering.

Cheering charms, for example, might just make them very happy while biting you.

Feel free to maul them all you like, though.

And yes, they will be around until then. :)

[not_that_spike]

Mauling them all you like -- does that include shooting and killing them? Because if they show up in one of Spike's posts, he'll do that without even stopping to think about it. Especially if Beth and Beth Junior are there with him. So if you'd rather not have dead snakes, perhaps he's not the person to slither up to.

[snakes-inna-bar.livejournal.com]

Indeed it does. Snakes in your threads are free to kill.

[gone_byebye]

Eeee! Snakes!

[tropes.livejournal.com]

I think I can probably speak for Mir when I say No Snakes Onna Sunny. And No Snakes Onna Anthony either.

And very seldom on Bernard please.

Tonks is Meg's problem.

[snakes-inna-bar.livejournal.com]

Absolutely no problem.

[wonderwhatif.livejournal.com]

Waaaaaaaah it figures this would happen while I was on holiday. Alas.

[daniidebrabant.livejournal.com]

...Garion's giving me the glare of a lifetime. That said, feel free to fling them at any of my pups. *suddenly wants Issa to show up inna bar*

And Kevin Fawkes. Yup. PAYback, big brother! ...letting me wake up in the room full of spiders, you big dork...

[qsilver-md.livejournal.com]

...Kevin wants to kill me. But seconded.

The snakes are many - in how far can they be NPCed/godded, at least in retrospect? Example: AS might tell somebody, 'Oh, Gil is horribly busy as all those snakes that are about keep wanting to eat the waitrat, and he has to drive them from the kitchen all the time. And I found one in the library this morning. They are a pest!' even though nothing of that sort has been RPed. But if there is a random number of random snakes loose in the bar, then on eis likely to encounter them, even if time zones might forbid actually interacting with the snakes-mun(s).

[snakes-inna-bar.livejournal.com]

Your example is just fine, yes. Just stick with spotting, running away from, or chasing them off.

Honestly, we don't know exactly how many there are. It's safe to say there are at least several hundred.

We will be attempting to play with everyone who wants to! If times are an issue, we'll figure something out.

[asar-suti.livejournal.com]

I'd definitely like some snakes; but if I can mention the spotting, running-away-from, and chasing of them in a conversation with Gil, that would be fun as well.

I'd also volunteer for the end-game of chasing all snakes out of the bar with many patrons together, if that takes place at a European compatible time. 'They kept scaring the rats, and Gil had to block the faun flap (little door from his room to the kitchen so he can take care of emergencies without taking the long way through the corridor) so the snakes can't come in, that would be enough of a motivation for Asar-Suti to put his magic at the disposal of people driving out snakes.

Much later addendum...

[asar-suti.livejournal.com]

Here is where we've done it (http://community.livejournal.com/milliways_bar/14468147.html), just for your info...

Actual snake hopping by would be fun, but as I'm in Europe and Gil-mun in Britain, it might not happen to happen.

*waves 'Death To Time-Zones' banner*

[mm_madb]

Perfectly willing to have Snakes Onna Sime (or any other Madb-characters that happen to show up).

[quinby.livejournal.com]

Snakes Onna Mark would be -hilarious-. Just don't eat the film. Mark'll be pissed.

I don't think anyone else'll be in.

[http://users.livejournal.com/_our_king_/]

...At least they're not spiders?

{calls over shoulder} Harry, mate, a little help here?

[sanguimmuno.livejournal.com]

Alas, why do I have to be sick today.

[blackswanevent.livejournal.com]

Please Tease, taunt, annoy, ruffle, etc- Every single one of my puppets with the snakies.

<3

[mogget_cat]

... one of the larger snakes should see if it likes the taste of cat.


*grrrrrrin*

[song_tra_bong]

I fangirl this plot hardcore, but one quick question:

is making a particular entrance post anti-snake (even if snakely participation is cool in other settings with said character) an alright thing? For example--this particular EP is too full of plottage or woe or something similar to be able to handle these motherf*$&ing snakes?

[snakes-inna-bar.livejournal.com]

Oh, of course it is! Also, if the snakes tag someone, and you'd rather they didn't, either stick in an OOC request or e-mail, and the snakes can vanish as if they never were.

Like we said, this is totally voluntary stuff, and we just want everyone to have fun. Or angst over snakebites. Whatever!

[song_tra_bong]

That's pretty much what I thought, but figured it couldn't hurt to cover my asp.

[/reallybadsnakepuns]

[weaverandom.livejournal.com]

Any of my pups and any of my threads that are anywhere in the bar WANT SNAKES. This is totally dependent on whether you're online at the same times as me, because I'm online, like, never. But if the opportunity should present itself, I WANT. :D

[wanttobeatree.livejournal.com]

Snakes Onna Sands has far too lovely a ring to it for him to NOT be snaked at.

And Luna's fair game too!

[qsilver-md.livejournal.com]

This character here is canonically scared of snakes to the point of panic. This, of course, means I want Snakes onna Kevin.

(Snakes are also welcome in threads with any of my other pups - Sharpe, Norrington, Gavroche, Lee Scoresby, Petrie, Jonathan Levinson, Michael Guerin, Liam Pace and Mr. Universe).

The only possible problem is that I'm on GMT. Think we can find a workable time for us both to play?
