Karkaeology: The Karkus in the Garden
I don't think stories got this silly leading up to this one, and lord did it give me ideas to go sillier. Sometimes it worked, and sometimes not (we'll get to those), but this one did okay. The Mandrel Brothers - Spliff and Nutmeg (Nutmeg's the one who wears a badge) are based off whoever you want them to be: Fast Times at Ridgemont High's Jeff Spicoli, Danny the Dealer from Withnail & I (there's a reference in the dialogue). Whichever you choose, they're drug-addled wasters, playing the punchline in this story - the acme of their character development. They're probably my most rounded and consistent characters.
Hot take: I actually like Harry.
