Have you done something about Big Emma/Bertha? (I think she (she had two names, hence why I put that) was designed to be an absolute unit and bank trains up the Lickey Incline?)
Not really, she was really popular for a while, and I've never felt I really had anything special to say about her. She was allocated to Wellsworth following Typhoon being reallocated to Tidmouth, but by 1963 BR attempted to withdraw her.
Before the North Western and British Railways could get into yet another brawl, a preservation group formed to save the engine approached with an offer to purchase her. The offer was unexpectedly large (its suspected the NWR made a generous donation) and BR happily accepted, not even complaining when the 58100 Preservation Group signed a deal with the North Western for her to assist with on their lines when not visting Preservation Lines in turn for taking on her overhuals.
Emma, as she prefers to be called, spends thetourist season touring preservation lines across the United Kingdom, a popular attraction where ever she goes. When not traveling she calls Vicarstown sheds her home, happily working with Typhoon, who she'd became close with during their time together on the Lickey incline.
An iincident of not occured in 2019, when a frieght stalled on the Lickey Incline. Emma had been traveling back towards the North Western following a visit to a heritage line when she was stopped and asked if she would assist. Footage of the 0-10-0 banking a modern train up the incline went viral, and was one of the last major railfan events before lockdown.

The Wayne kids have been kidnapped so often that they have a rating list of which rouges are the better kidnappers.
Steph- Everyone thinks Two-Face is a criminal genius, but he spent so much time fighting with himself that I was able to walk right out the door
Damian- Cobblepot is my personal favorite. Sometimes I let myself be taken just so I can return the favor with his henchbirds. I've nearly amassed my own flock. How he hasn't noticed yet is beyond me.
Tim- Riddler likes to watch the people trying to get me back fight with his riddles, so I'm usually locked up in a quiet, dark cell. Alone. For hours. It's great. He sometimes gives me blankets and pillows and I'm able to make a little fort and just sleep.
Dick, holding up his hand- Harley gave me a manicure and we hate watched reality shows until Ivy came home and made her release me

Do you think Meta Knight would take Kirby to Waffle Houses for food in a Metadad fashion, but also for training?
(Waffle Houses are known in America for delicious breakfast food but also and oddly enough, night time scuffles).
Asjdjkskfs that does fit them very well XD
MK takes Kirby to a Waffle House thinking it's the one-stop shop for all his babysitting needs and immediately gets banned from every single one 👍
