Man did I have a laugh while writing this. This very chapter was originally written in a very different way but sometime during my summer vacation I scetched a comic-version of it and this scene appeared. In the comic version, Torn's face is hidden most of the time cause I find his tattos a bit hard to scetch, so in this chapter, his entire head is hidden by a large squid on his head.
CHAPTER 6
KREW, THE WORLDS FATTEST SUPPLIER
(A slightly funny scene, not for people with squid-allergy)
(Underground HQ)
Torn: (is only wearing a towel saying"Right", a t-shirt saying"Praxis makes great buns" and a squid on his head) I hope this is important! I was in the shower!
Daxter: wearing a t-shirt?
Torn: yeah? You never take of your clothes when you're bathing either
Daxter: what's it saying? "Praxis makes great buns"?
Torn: yes! He does!
Daxter:...
Jak: (carries a bread-pizza) we saw something odd in the fortress. You, Kim and Erol was giving away eco to Bunny and Lucy!
Torn: perhaps it was their birthday?
Daxter: I said that!
Well: (carries a strawberry-pizza) it could have been wedding
Daxter: nah, it's as good as no male metalheads
Civilian Guy: (carries taco) it could have been Christmas Eve
Daxter: in June?
Torn: I guess he should tell the Shadow; meanwhile you can take this eco-ore to Krew, the world's fattest mutant, on Hip Hog Heaven by the dock. Maybe he even has some deadly weapons?
Jak: (smiles from ear to ear)
Torn: and while you're there, pump Krew, the world's fattest informant, for information, and perhaps some fat, he's way to fat.
Jak: (writes a memo) ask for info and dieting, got it! Let's go Well, you to Daxter
Civilian Guy: can I come?
Jak: sure, and leave Torn's fridge alone!
Daxter: (comes out from the fridge) but I wanted pudding!
Jak: (puts Daxter on a leach an leaves after giving Torn the pizzas)
Torn: damn, there's no squid on these pizzas,
The squid on Torn's head: (shivers)
(Hip Hog Heaven Saloon, later known as the Naughty Ottsel)
Daxter: man! This is the most depressive bar I've ever seen! Oh well, (walks up to Krew, the world's fattest weapon supplier) You Krew, the world's fattest monkey? WOW! You really need a strong diet!
Krew: Really? You don't think its just side effects from my vaccination do you?
Jak: ?
Daxter: ?
Sig: ?
Well: ?
Erol: HICK?
Jak: what the hell are you doing here?
Erol: drinking HICK!
Krew, the world's fattest game character: you probably want a reward?
Jak: (nods in excitement)
Krew, the world's fattest! Period!: fine. Sig, give these guys their price
Sig: (gives Jak a morph gun)
Jak: (smiles from the tip of his ear to the tip of his other ear (remember, Jak's ears are about one and a half feet long so this makes a huge smile))
Daxter: aw, no water balloons?
Sig: nope, here are some oil balloons though
Krew, word's fattest rabbit eater: sorry pin head! We're all out of water balloons.
Civilian Guy: what about me?
Sig: sure, here's a slingshot
Civilian Guy: awesome! I should have had this two years ago. When a jerk from the past came and landed on me. I hope I find him, and then I'll kill him!
Jak: (hugs his morph gun while shivering with fear)
Krew, the word's sickest guy: do you want to test your new toys out in the wasteland? Sig got a job to do out there and need someone to watch his back
Jak: like a baby sitter?
Krew, the world's fattest handicapped: something like that
Jak: sounds cool, wanna tag along Civilian Guy?
Civilian Guy: don't count on me; I've already got a job (takes on his waiter costume)
Erol: more beer!
Civilian Guy: Get it yourself!
