The chief finally has a life and asks a woman out on a date. Wonder what that would be like. Mmmmm... Joe/Jason giving tips. I didn't think it would be a rubber room one, some places fans may not wanna go.

If it's Jason would his tips really be meant to be helpful, or would he be messing wth the Chief?

Heh, heh. Thats a tough one! It would either be dull as dirt or waaay too exciting. If he made it at all. (I can imagine a looong series of apology texts before she gives up or quits answering)

Joe: Don't listen to Ken! Jason: Don't listen to Mark!

I could imagine half way through dinner Galactor attacking and calling in the team, then trying to explain it to them that he does have a kinda a life... The romantic getaway to the trailer park and he spends all his time on his monitors and wonders why she gets cranky. Poor woman.

Must. Finish. Current. Work! Maybe when I'm done i'll have time/intrest in re writing Hakase in love. (or not!) defenitely not!

"Hakase in love" is a great title already, ED! Would love to read more -- I absolutely love the idea of Anderson dating, and the G-Force members trying to give him advice!

DT -- Yeah, you'd love the idea of Anderson dating if G-Force was advising him to date you! Admit it!

Would they do that?

Maybe, if you gave them the right incentive...

I was recently re-reading our "Flavour of the month" fic -- enough incentives there!

ED, It would be a different fanfic. A bit of fun too. I could imagine I'd be having him explore a life outside of work, ways of meeting women in his age group, since he's a workaholic plus. I could imagine Ken and Joe taking him to a bar!!! ROTFL! One that serves cocktails in a beaker.

Hola! I've been watching Gatchaman II lately, and something interesting came into mind. I think that Nambu and Pandora could be a nice couple. Besides her being her secretary, for sure she was his confident too. He is the eternal bachelor, she was a widow, so I guess this is a perfect match! Besides, both of them share too much in common: brilliant minds, dedicated to their jobs and share the same passion: science! What do you think?

I'll have to get Gatch II/fighter sometime soon. I was waiting for English translations like they did with Gatchaman I.

Thers lots of good ideas in this thread! A fifty first dates theme would be funny too! I can see him pulling up and seeing some woman twirling her hair and smacking gum and just driving away... I wish they would release Gatch 2 on dvd, i woulnt even care if it was in Japanese!

I could see it, i can also see Nambu only having affairs with married women, this way he still gets what he wants without any strings...

But then there's the complication of angry spouses finding out...unless Nambu's always wearing the latest in bulletproof fashion!

Hola ED, You can watch Gatchaman II in YouTube with English subtitles. As for the DVDs, you can get them in Japanese in some auctions in Japan. If you want, send me your email and when I see them, I could let you know. But bear in mind that for some particular reason, Gatchaman II and F are a bit expensive. Some collections are 150 USD for Gatchama II and 300 USD for Gatchaman F.

Hola EW, Maybe Nambu could borrow Ryu's wings......first, to protect himself and then, to fly away faster from the crime scene jeje

Hola Ebony, Hopefully we won't have to wait long for that miracle to happen! It would be great to understand Gatchaman F ad for Gatchaman II, there are some translations available in YouTube.... Guess, we have to wait a bit longer.... sigh......

Thanks Adrianag! I Pm'ed you!

So, say I did have the first chapter of a new fic...where would one post it on here? It's not rubber room material at this point.

Opposites in personalities can work too. He needs someone to lighten him up a lot. An outgoing personality, or into something that he finds interesting about them. Bridget and Darcy a good example.

Yes he does! She's gonna have to be adaptable, flexable and independent if she wants to keep his interest for very long, I think. It will take an exceptional person to drag him away from his work persona.

He's a bloke, sex!

I think you may have something there...most guys DO seem to like sex...

Just jokes, I'm sure his character has more depth than that.

Sadly, he'd probably be 'that' guy who has his phone on the table (for which he'd apologise, pleading work commitments) then said phone would ring incessantly, for which he would apologise. Of course he'd be obliged to check the caller ID and answer pretty much each and every call, for which he would apologise. In the end, he'd probably give up, admit that it had been a bad idea, apologise some more and bring the evening to a close. Here's where things diverge a little: Nambu would go back to the lab and try to figure out how to convert sexual frustration into a weapon of some kind. I mean, why stop at salad spinner neurosurgery? Anderson would tell Zark to block Jason's incessant texts about dating advice and to delete all those profiles which Jason had put up on all the internet dating sites he'd been able to find. I did write a fic where Jason tried to set Anderson up (albeit for slightly nefarious - but sort of altruistic - purposes.) It did not end well for Jason.

Pandora is looking like a match by the minute! My Obstetician's wife once said she became his secretary so she could see him! I think he would need to have his wife working with him to ever see her. Candle dinner dates in the office with Takeaway.

Originally posted by Ebonyswanne Pandora is looking like a match by the minute!

Wasn't Pandora widowed just before the start of Gatch II? Strikes me as a case of "too soon." I know some people do embark on new relationships within twelve months of the death of a partner but Pandora lost her only child as well. She'd be pretty traumatised and I suspect that those who do get straight back out there are probably in the minority.

Not straight away, No. But you could set one in the future... we love creative flare!

I suppose being Nambu, he could gather up the bits from the rocket wreckage and apply Mad Science: From Advanced Mad Science for Dummies Chapter 5: Build Your Own Shambling Undead Girlfriend in 8 Easy Steps! Ingredients: Tesla coils, lightning rod, big surgical table, hunchbacked assistant - hey where's that guy from the episode with the old king? The one who looks like Peter Lorre? He'll do! - one truckload of suture material with needles, a cadaver for spare parts, sheets, shotgun, a bunch of flowers and a short-term lease on a crumbling castle overlooking a village with a windmill and villagers who own pitchforks and flaming torches. Step 1: separate Pandora bits from inorganic rocket wreckage. Step 2: combine Pandora bits with spares from a handy cadaver using sutures. Step 3: arrange result on surgical table; cover with sheet. Step 4: if necessary arrange change of name by Deed Poll so that hunchbacked assistant is named 'Igor.' (Skip this step if hunchbacked assistant is already named Igor.) Step 5: have hunchbacked assistant connect Tesla coils, lightning rods etc and shuffle around saying, "Yeth, Marthter." Step 5: check weather reports. If no storms are forecast, see Chapter 7 - 'generating dramatic thunderstorms.' (Also see Chapter 9 - 'timing maniacal laughter during dramatic thunderstorms') Step 6: when lightning hits rod, throw switch and wait for signs of life. Step 7: scream, "It's alive!" Step 8: if subject appears homicidal, apply shotgun. If not, give flowers, book table at local restaurant and have fun, kids!

Absolutely!!! Cyborgs are the rage these days.

I needed a chuckle this morning, thank you

Snerk! I love your version of BotP! This is sooo something Jason would do!

Earlier in this thread, I suggested that when faced with the realisation that he's rubbish at dating, Nambu would retreat to the lab and attempt to turn frustration into a weapon. It occurred to me while I was cleaning out the Barn Owlery yesterday just what form this could take. He would, based on an analysis of the biochemistry in question, create a chemical weapon which could be applied to Galactor mooks with the following effects: Mook over 40: on inhaling aerosolised particles, mook (or Evil Commander du jour) reassesses life, quits job, steals red sports car and attempts to date younger women. Mook over 25 but under 40: on inhaling aerosolised particles, mook (or Evil Commander du jour) quits job and goes on trekking holiday with the aim of climbing Mt Kilimanjaro or walking the Kokoda Track. Mook under 25: on inhaling aerosolised particles, mook shuts himself up in his room, paints his fingernails black and listens to Evanescence all day. Berg Katse: gas has no effect.

I'd say post it on this site but in a new thread, then put a link to it in here. Makes it easier for people to find and follow the story as you add to it.
