} Hmmm - tricky! You see, the tooth fairy is just an imaginary creature,
} invented to reduce the trauma of children losing their first teeth, so
} it's a bit difficult to introduce you to him... [Him? I always thought
} the tooth fairy was female.]
}
} Come to think of it, there may be one way... Just a moment...

} You are in Lisa's bedroom, a small, velvety room which is dominated by a
} huge bed. There's a mirror on the ceiling directly above the bed. The
} air smells of a heavy perfume. Lisa's vibrator collection is on display
} in a glass case. Some discarded clothing is lying on the floor.

} lingerie.
}
} Lisa takes off her bra.
} Lisa picks up a lipstick from the table.
} Lisa starts painting her nipples.
}
} Suddenly, you hear a loud beeping sound and luminous letters materialize
} in front of you:

} } Get back to work! Now!
}
} [ Shit! I'll have to get back to this later. ]

}
} Excuse me, got a little carried away there. Now, why did you ask me to
} introduce me to the tooth fairy when you couldn't behave yourself?
} You'd better stop behaving like a nerd, or be prepared to spend the rest
} of your life in a terminal room...
}
} You owe the Oracle a Macintosh implementation of the FANTASY game. With
} animated graphics.
