After a character had a major traumatic experience, John asked Luna (a telepath) to see what she could do for her.

Luna: "Oh, yeah. It's a real fixer-upper in here (a character's mind)."
John: "Yeah, I can't just take her brain out, put it in the anti-pickle jar, then put it back in her head."

(The anti-pickle jar is a magical jar that, anything inside it regenerates to its ideal status. It didn't have a name until right then.)

Reminded of a Champions game by the Wonder Woman thread in GURPS:

[Phantasm]

a bit of fooling around in my server as we're trying to get into our characters' heads:

Janessa: "So, uh... Chelsea? I have some good news and some bad news. Which do you want first?"
Chelsea: "Might as well get the bad news out of the way. What did you do?"
Janessa: "Well, I, uh... Well, I warned you not to leave me unsupervised around tech, right?"
Chelsea: "What did you do?!"
Janessa: "Iaccidentallyturnedyourtourbusintoanautobot!"
Chelsea: "Okay but what's the bad news?"

Seriously, though, how does one answer that question, when "accidentally turned the [other PC's] tour bus into a transforming robot" is supposed to be the "bad" news?

The transformation permanently removed the bathroom from the tour bus?

The tour bus's radio only picks up one radio station. And it's random every day, but never anything anyone likes? Any sound system installed suffers the same glitch.
