The, er, Truck Scene came into things late. When I made hints before the story came out about "characters you never expected" most of you jumped to a certain conclusion. It was the wrong conclusion--I truly, honestly meant the GB3/GB2000 characters--but I started playing with the idea in my head as I was writing parts 4 and 5... As you might guess, the truck driver's name being "Joe" is significant. Who says I never give the fans what they want? Belated mention, by the way, that the speedbumps' last names are not from the TV show--Ben came up with those. He also suggested the line "What the heck is a Junior Ghostbuster?" I'll try to get some sort of acknowledgement added and uploaded to the page.

What would have been even fummier would have been to have the Crash Test Dummies, Vince and Larry, drive the truck. We all know who voiced Larry...

Ah, but I'm not sure that's the Larry Fritz meant. You have to wonder what the 'L' in L. Ditillio stood for. The 'WTF' story of the year is coming along nicely Fritz, you're still throwing the crowd balls from left field with this decided warped universe and it's obvious you're having a ball with it. Using the mistaken assumption of the JGBs was a neat touch, and the identities of Nodus in both of the fractured worlds is not only disturbing but obviously shows the level of insanity of Nodus himself. Looking forward to the conclusion. LMAO!!! I guess in writing alternate realities you can pretty much get away with anything... Darn trucks! lol Don't say that! You don't know who might be listening!

But it makes what Delphia said make so much more since too. Of course they need to find Nodus, because Nodus is the other twin. And I didn't know what the J. in JMS stood for. I've always heard him called, J. Micheal Strazinsky (SP?) What confuses me is why they are grown in 1999? And why Romulus is semi-immune to the proton blasts.? I have lots of other questions too, but I'll keep them quiet right now. But those questions don't have to be answered right now. The only thing I want to know right now is when do you think part 6 will be ready?

Ghostbusters: Gemini Rising, Part SixJune 13, 1999--Timeline Y//---error---error---error--- // In the Null Zone, two teams of Ghostbusters each encounter each other, convinced the other is some sort of bizarre parody. Romulus and Pollux's secret is exposed, and only half as many Ghostbusters as before walk away from the ramifications...

This is DEFINITELY going to be your masterpiece, Fritz! Things are (literally) coming together. Gotta admit, my jaw hit the floor at LEAST twice...
And I never thought anyone could reconcile the various versions of the guys and Janine. Guess I was wrong on that one...
And I never imagined the Romulus secret...

Me neither. Let's see...you have two extremely hacked-off new parents...one of whom wants blood, the other VERY willing to help her get it...*rubs hands* BRING ON THE PAIN!!! (Caps added for emphasis)
Or however Fritz decides to handle it...

One of those full-circle stories; it seems we're pretty much back to the point at which part 1 ended. Which leaves the climax, I guess - should be interesting.

I'm so blown away, I really don't know what to say. I had already figured some things out, but some things were pure WTF moments. I agree that everyone will have to hold Janine back to keep her from killing Nodus, if he still exist, if he is indeed a real person anymore. 'Cause I really don't know. I am very glad to see some of the questions I have finally coming together, though the way these stories all have something to do with each other flabbergasts me. The whole 'series' has been very well thought through and brought together, and while we may come closer to understanding the scope of it all with this stories conclusion, I have no doubt that you have some other things in mind for this.
And just so you know, I can't get the phrase "Johnathan's tiny little Egon hands' out of my head now. ;D
I look forward to the exciting conclusion and the gushing GBs and relatives over the cute little babies in the next chapter.

The conclusion, I hope, will make everyone's heads explode. I haven't done much on it yet, but there's gonna be some big pay off. I'm planning to finish the GBWC story "Word To Your Mummy" first, so I hope the wait will be worth it.
