Ascici -- Son of Rick and ... Dr. Sappho?

[Kieran]

First off I'd like to wish everyone a pleasant holiday as I delurk. (First post here too!)

When it comes to the question of who (if anyone) is Ascici's other parent there's a striking resemblence between our recently repaired amnesiac and Lucritzia Sappho, same fur color at hands and tip of tail, both on the feline side. I wonder if there's anything more to this...

Consider this an open armed invitation for flashbacks

There is one other question that's been consuming my brain cycles:

How is one supposed to pronounce Ascici?

• Asky chi?
• Ah si chi?

Once again Alan, you've left us a nifty plot twist! Thanks![/list]

Welcome Kieran! Hope you have a good time here on one of the nicest forums on the web. A number of forumites are currently unavailable for the holidays. There is some leftover sachertorte on the buffet. Don't confuse it with Rick's ceramics project.

{{{HUG}}}
(other greetings optional)

Ascici is pronounced 'ah-see-see', or as I kidded Allen in a destroyed thread "a sissy".

*A blue Mini suddely zooms up, and screeches to a halt in front of Kieran. A large red anthro python gets out of the passenger seat while a thinner fox anthro sits behind the wheel. Quickly, the python grabs up Kieran and gives him a big hug. Then just as suddenly, jumps back in the Mini and shouts "GO! GO!" and the Mini takes off with a squeal of burning rubber.*

=^-^= Congratulations, Rep Psy and I have just made you a victim of a drive by hugging. Welcome Kieran!

Fox - Happy to be the wheel man for any drive by hugging.

Thank you, DetailBear, Fox, and RepPsy for the greetings and hugs!

Hugs returned to anyone still in range, and held in reserve for those curretly out of range...

And of course the correct answer as to how to say "Ascici" is something I would not have guessed
