If Billie could recognize Tom from that distance, that’s a pretty light mist. It gets foggy enough here that if you run into something whilst driving you have to get out of the car to see what it is you hit…
We have entire mountain ranges renowned for their fogginess, not to mention more than a few bayside cities known for perpetual rain and fog. They’re just not the places that most of our movies depict.
This raises the question- is there a general term for the alien robot species that include the Valleymen and the Daffodil Haters? Convertors? Alternators? Trawsnewidyddion?
Also noting that my family had a cat named Gareth when I was a kid. He was a wonderful cat. We had a kind of tradition we sort of sometimes followed in my family of naming cats and dogs after figures from Arthurian legend, so we named him after Sir Gareth. He had some sort of neurological problem, and he looked exactly like one of the Kliban cats. The other cats tended to be very protective of him, probably because they could tell he was a bit disabled.
GoBots Go!
All this convenient fog. It makes me wonder how creatives not blessed to live on the blasted isles manage. [I suppose parts of the US are… dusty?]
There are misty areas, for sure. It’s not all cowboys and oil rigs out here…
Though we are trying awfully hard…

It was the gait that gave him away I think.
The Gait of Hell
Sean, excellent XD

Ever hear of the Great Smoky Mountains?
In Billie’s defence, it’s hard to be precious about misusing a trademark when it’s so popular it’s become a verb. Gareth should Google it.
CAN CAUSE GREAT HARM.
SELLS HIS SERVICES TO BOTH SIDES.
NO, HE IS ACTUALLY COOL AND DANGEROUS. REALLY.
SPECIALY WHEN VICTIM IS NOT AWARE.

Auto-macross?
I had an idea for an alien robot species called the Adenoids and their enemy the Hemorrhoids.
That did not make me laugh so much as make me curse your eyes.
In keeping with the whole vehicle thing, Autonoids and Hemi-roids?

Hmmm. Maybe we should bank “Pellinore” and “Palamedes” as names for future cats
We had a dachshund named Pellinore.
That sounds impossibly cute! ❤️🥹❤️
“They do tend to get real upset when you call em’ Go Bots.”
Still loving that Gareth has a strong Welsh accent. It adds so much to the story.
Morphulators killed my cousin.
Billie is right. That’s a very bad reason for do something that even could destroy you. Also, let’s admit it, Tom looks fabulous in that fake uniform.
Tom is always fabulous. Pity about his personality.
You got this Billie! No matter what Tom can’t change that you’re immeasurably more likable than him.
I so appreciate the *PRECISION* of the, uh, morphulating onomatopoeia!
But I was told they were both mighty robots AND mighty vehicles!
No, no, they might be robots and they might be vehicles.
But they’re certainly giant.
That’s my new exit line, ‘MORPH-U-LATOR LOSERS!’
Morph-U-Lator, tailgater!
