Propinquity Associates
Propinquity Associates is a transdimensional corporation which provides propinquity (nonfiction)-related services, mainly involving sex (nonfiction) and/or death (nonfiction).
Competition
National Razor
Propinquity Associates and National Razor have a long-standing grudge over who has a better grasp on Occam's Razor (nonfiction).
The Uncials
The Uncials sometimes beat Propinquity Associates to the punch, and there is a certain amount of playful but murderous donnybrooking, with the Uncials getting the worst of it, every time.
These outbursts of violence are inevitably followed by the ritual drinking of Extract of Radium, and the usual resulting incidents of scrimshaw abuse.
Here again the Uncials keep getting the worst of it, with Propinquity Associates at least having the sense to vomit up that last unwise shot of hemlock (nonfiction) and Extract of Radium (see Mispent Youth).
It keeps happening, over and over again, and you think the Uncials would learn. But no.
Perhaps it must be all in good fun, like medieval jousting (nonfiction).
