Personally, I Like Thunderbird 5 More, But I Bet If I Was Let Onboard Sometimes, I’d Place Shadow Second…

Reboot me?! You’d never! And I promise on my servos that I wouldn’t switch off your air supply. Can I not satiate my curiosity without being accused of trying to kill you?

Yes, the sunfish are ever gorgeous and stupid, yes, the sea otters are playful and intelligent… but what about any mesopelagic critters?! >:[ John won’t let me go on Thunderbird 4 so I can see them, which is utterly disappointing. Please enlighten me about your favourite deep-sea creature… or let me onto Thunderbird 4’s systems so I can see them for myself…? I promise I won’t take it for a spin… :]

EOS!! What are you doing on here?!

You… like mesopelagic creatures? I mean, it makes perfect sense from a horror point of view. It’s where the giant squid lurks for a reason

Sorry, you need the access code for Thunderbird 4. If you’ve got that, we can go for a spin no problem! But without it? Weeeeell… c:

It sounds likes lots of fun, but I am certain I would absolutely demolish all of you. Not that I wouldn’t mind winning. I know Scott’s going to not let me play any Mario Party because he thinks I can modify the game in my favour… but I won’t tell you if I really can.

Kayo! I am ever so bored on Thunderbird Five. Please let me do some security work, please…? ^_^ I promise it’ll be up to whatever standards you have!

EOS, hello. Is John being boring again?

You're very welcome to review the island's security footage for the day, but it might make you even more bored than you are now. Other than that, there's not much to do I'm afraid - but I'm playing Cavern Quest at the minute so if that's your sort of thing you're very welcome to join me :)

Well, I suppose since it is your birthday, I shall hold off the malicious intent for now. But that does not mean I will not insult you.

Your hatred of space makes you even more unsuited for the job! I don’t know why John insists you’re any good…

Penelope's finally arrived on the island (hopefully with time to spare before the party!)

Where is @squidsinashirt? She's got birthday gifts that quite literally have his name attached to them and she's also got a birthday hug, you know, if he wants that too.

They are all hideous to me. Please enlighten me as to why you think they are appealing?

Very, very important Thunderbirds business today folks. I need votes urgently.

Good grief. I leave briefly to sort through my backups and now my ‘dash’ is full of every single Tracy is weeping over the things that have happened to their ships. Surely you can’t be that attached to a vehicle?

I’ve always been intrigued about Star Trek, and this Great Race sounds interesting too… I am not sure if the jokes will be obvious to me, as John says my sense of humour is horrible. But I will still try and watch them!

Do any of you Tumblr citizens have any recommendations for movies? I feel I’m boring John by consistently talking about how superior I am to MAX and Braman… not that I’m wrong.

The lack of Thunderbird 5 appreciation makes me furious. Thunderbird 5 is superior in every way to the other birds. Shadow is cool, I’ll give it that, but the others? Hmph! I do not see what there is to appreciate.

Let’s settle this:

And you would be right, especially factoring in your reputation for destroying your own Thunderbird. (ﾟAﾟ;) I’m keeping you off at all costs— uh, unless John really, really, really, really thinks you’re a good fit. …get an extra really in there. Then I suppose I can let you on…

Soooo if you can pilot every thunderbird... which is your favourite (excluding tb4 of course!) to pilot? Or even juicier do you have a least favourite? >:3

What do you mean excluding Four 😏

Favourite? That’s gotta be Two, given she’s the one I get the most airtime on (people always seem surprised when I say that - gotta keep the big guy’s air hours down where we can, so I’ll take the home stretch and let him snooze/kick back). She’s easy to fly once you’re used to the VTOL engines, very forgiving and there isn’t much she can’t do. Got a soft spot for the big girl, she and Four go together like peanut butter and jelly after all 💚💛

(And she isn’t determined to try and kill you like a certain other ‘bird)

Honourable mention to Three, but that’s Alan’s baby and he doesn’t share all that often.

Least favourite? It’s probably not that juicy 😂 Five (sorry @starman-john-tracy). It involves space and being trapped in space, and a distinct lack of the sea in space. The technology is incredible, but it’s John’s domain and I always feel like I’m intruding. It’s also far too far away from people, and absolutely not enough human contact, despite all the communications.

To be fair, I’m probably at the bottom of @i-am-the-dawn-aka-eos list of people to man Five too, so it’s mutual.

Alrighty, I would like to request:

Strong hydraulics, so I can hold up big boulders and crush pesky little robots… no bigger than MAX! I promise I won’t crush him.

Sufficient weaponry to scare away invaders.

Various tools so I can assist with John when he needs to repair anything on the ground, like the Space Elevator.

Waterproofing so Gordon can’t rid of me easily, hehe.

These are the ones I want the most out of my… extensive list. Please consider my request! (^^)

Brains, may you pretty, pretty please make me a big robot I can use on Tracy Island? I would love to throw Max like a softball protect us from especially dangerous intruders. I have a list of things I want… Reply soon, please!! ヾ(＾-＾)ノ

Well, since you asked so politely, I'll consider it. What is the list of things you want? I can take a look and maybe grant some of your requests. If you promise to be on your best behavior.

Although I'm not sure you need to throw MAX around. I'm sure the two of you could get on and even become friends.

( @starman-john-tracy I wonder what you think of this?)

heard you play chess

My intimidating form could scare John into letting me win… what a fantastic idea! Thank you! I do like the red LEDs in my wiring, I look even more villainous… (~v~)
