Starting On A New Story for Ginger West

kb7rky · Post by **kb7rky** » Fri Oct 08, 2004 9:41 pm

Hey all:

I'm writing a story inspired by Ginger's graciousness to produce custom videos for us. Hopefully, she'll use the concept in an upcoming video just for us

I'd like to get a few of Fembot Central Regulars involved in this story.

Here's what I have planned:

The small town of Notta, Washington, has put in a bid for a new piece of police equipment. What they get is Charlie 25, the newest crime-fighting android from TDD Labs, Inc.

(what? Not Dolly Depot, Robo Depot, or Boomers R Us? Oh, the humanity!)

Of course, Charlie 25 makes a few mistakes (arresting the wrong person, blowing a big sting operation, ticketing people for the most minor of infractions), but, during an especially heart-wrenching 911 callout, she eventually learns that it takes a special kind of person to be a good police officer.

Here's who I have planned to appear in the story (at least):

Charlie 25 - Ginger
Police Chief
Police Captain - Myself (Doug)
Police Officer(s) - about 4 or 5 (remember, this is a small town)
Dispatch/911 Operator ("Station")
Lawbreakers

Of course, I'm certain we can't just go out and get a few police cars if Ginger decided to make this into a video, but I do have a Kawasaki Police 1000, complete with lights and siren

Okay, so who wants to be made famous?

I demand to be the "King of Town" in this story Doug. Hehe, just kidding...but I am very interested in seeing where this goes. Who knows maybe I can make a trip out there myself on a day when you guys are shooting to see what goes on behind the scenes, Seattle isn't too far away after all.

KingJeremy

P.S.

A cookie for the first person besides Kishin to get my reference.

I've got a feeling I know...I just can't place the reference, though...

Dang. Ryn beat me to it. What do you get for second place? A trophy? Or maybe a pizza?

Maybe a pizza trophy?

Everybody gets a cookie! Don't blame me for how they taste though...The Poopsmith made 'em.

I shoulda known you guys were too hip to not know about Homestar and crew. (I knew Kishin did from his avatar.)

Anyway, /hijack off. Sorry about the mini derail there Doug, please keep us informed with the story's progress.

NP...gotta have a little fun along the way.

I shoulda remembered that site! It's where Kish got his avatar from

(I feel so...so...common, now!

)

Anyway, got a couple of updates for the casting list:

Charlie 25 - Ginger
Police Chief
Police Captain - Myself (Doug)
Police Officer(s) - about 4 or 5 (remember, this is a small town)
Dispatch/911 Operator ("Station")
Lawbreakers

I think KJ wanted to be someone important, so I'm thinking Police Chief Jeremy

and I chatted with Triumph (who is not a motorcycle or car) and Barakuda (who is a man and not a fish) last night (to borrow some of KJ's thunder...they know what I'm referring to

) Triumph'll make a good K-9 officer, but I don't know if Kuda was interested...

Anyway, still hashing out the details right now...will keep everyone posted.

Oh, yeah, the image for the Notta PD is up in the Gallery:

Enjoy!

Hee, Hee, Hee....

Before I forget, my first photo is at http://www.fembotcentral.com/gallery/de ... ode=search

Sounds great! I have the uniform, but no hat or badge. Remember, I am in the Coast Guard Auxiliary. I have footage of a police boat and I will be in Seattle at Pier 36 on the 15th at the Coast Guard station for a day of training. Perhaps, if Jeremy is available that Friday night???, we could get some footage.

We can also set up a day out here, North of Seattle for anyone in the area to do some shooting.

Sounds good so far. I have a lot of James Bond Coast Guard boating maneuvers. Really cool stuff.

Aw, nuts...and I'm going to be up on Elk Summit, ID, that weekend

Well...perhaps another time

Doug

ps Be sure to drop in to Ivar's on Pier 54 and pick me up a tanker of clam chowder

Just thought of another, VERY IMPORTANT, person to add to the list:

Charlie 25 - Ginger
Police Chief - KingJeremy
Police Captain - Myself (Doug)
Police Officer(s) - about 4 or 5 (remember, this is a small town)
Dispatch/911 Operator ("Station")
K-9 - Triumph
Lawbreakers
FedEx Guy

Can't forget the FedEx Guy! Sheesh...how would Charlie 25 be delivered to the Notta PD?

"Holy craaaaaaaaaaaaaap!"

Keep in mind Doug when you are writing your story, if you want me to actually film and produce it, that it is only realistic to have one visible character. Others are on the other side of the camera that I am just talking to. The script has to be obvious that I am having a conversation but it also can only be one sided. That is the tricky part.

Keep me posted.

Of course...I'm just writing the story...what you want to do with it is up to you

I just asked the FC Regulars if they'd like to appear in the story itself

would love to be in it Doug,I'm sure you can find a suitable role for me, either as a robot,or maybe they release the 'method' of making these female robots and I'm the latest human transformation.Anyway Yes I'm definitely up for it,I always enjoy someone else writing a story concerning me as well as doing them myself

"Notta police station"
ROFLM*O!!!!!

I enjoyed the first part of your script, especially that line.

Good job.

Now, if you or someone could write something for me really fast.

Scenario: New model still ho hair, makeup, clothing etc... being taken to TDD Robot Inc.'s secret island lab by boat to be programmed and to get the finishing touches. The finished unit either has long straight vibrant silky blue hair with matching lips, etc...

Or, short straight silver tinsel hair with silver makeup.

She can be named whatever you like as long as TDD is the prefix AND she can be programmed for anything but graphic sex. Perhaps she is programmed to maintain the new owner's yacht, or do his grocery shopping,

And yes, I will go into a grocery store with blue hair acting like an android.

By Jove, I think she got it!

(I'll get some ideas thrown your way ASAP, BTW)

Okay, an explanation, for those of you still going

I used to own a Ford Crown Vic (Police Interceptor special...I think I have a thing for old police vehicles) when I worked at the Moscow/Pullman Daily News : http://www.dnews.com. I had made a comment to the office staff then that I wanted to restore it to police specs (lights, siren, radio, etc), and then put decals on it with a special license plate.

The decals?

"Notta Police"

The special plate?

"CAR"

These were going to be on the trunk lid, so if I ever got stopped by the police, they'd have a good laugh at my expense while I was filling out the ticket...

It's been a long-running joke for 6 years now...and, now that I have a police motorcycle, I can, at least, fulfill my joke a little...
