So, part 1 of the Pod Pilots thread. Kryiptuun said he'd take a shot at the next part.
Be sure to start your own threads, the more people involved the better!
In the Paradox Laboratory, Pod Captain AJR7 smacked his console. “Stupid thing’s broken again. Never should have trusted Assembly with this.” He turned to the other minifig in the room. “Hey, Muckrake! Get Augie Ninewells in here now.”
