Nothing of the serious flavor yet, though the [[Angry Marines]] page has plenty of the comedic stuff.

A Thing That Happens

The young chapter brother was straddled aside the most outrageously slapshod reconstruction of an artillery cannon that had ever caught the eyes of Brother Cid. If the young Brother Thomas had understood how he had earned his nick-name of "Thunder God," he probably would have been more respectful and dignified in his use of profanity, but ignorance was bliss. Thomas "Biggie "The Tank Engine"" (as he called himself and absolutely nobody else did) celebrated by hollering "Fuck yeah, motherfuckers! FOR THE EMPEROR'S FUCKING WET-NURSE!" before howling with delight at the ensuing cluster of explosions his contraption, somehow, had caused.

Cid pondered on how he would need to ensure that the device was destroyed, if the worst came to it and the Orks broke the line. It wouldn't do to be giving them free designs to draw inspiration from, especially ones this damnably efficacious. 'Fire for effect,' indeed, Thomas, he thought. Well played. That bought him enough time to occupy his mind tactically and not just be stuck watching the explosions happen from afar, until Thomas, the little sonuvabitch, flipped open a hidden panel. Of course it contained a big red button. Of course he smashed it with his fist so hard it broke. Of course it was immediately followed by the Emperor's own fury of melta bombs and promethium fires.

Thomas was flailing all of his limbs and cackling like a heathen on fire. "EMPEROR HELP ME, if I get any harder, I'll be a CHAOS MARINE!" 

Cid heard exactly enough words of that statement. ''Ding''

Thomas didn't even register that the metal clunk against the side of his head was an entire bolter rifle. He just turned his eyes, tried to quiet down his laughing and asked "Hahaha what's up, Cid, you jealous of the Emperor's cock right now? I sure as hell am."

"''So you were just making a joke a second ago, right?''" Cid said, somehow both louder and quieter than every other sound Thomas had ever heard in his life. ''Oh.''

"Wai-wh-about the Chaos thing? You serious?" He stammered. Cid did not move. At all. It was uncanny how little he moved. He didn't even seem to be breathing, how was he

"''Yes, Thomas "Biggie "The Tank Engine"". I am dead serious.''"

The longest second of both their lives passed very slowly over the course of a few million years. Eventually, the big crunch happened, time continued, and Thomas "Biggie "The Tank Engine"" fell out of his chair laughing.

He will never admit to it, but "Thunder God" Cid may have let out a little chuckle, too.
