HAPPY NEW YEAR'S AND A MERRY CHRISTMAS

[trollingismagic.insanejournal.com]

[ Best wishes from Bermuda Isle!



A number of booths have sprung up near the shoreline, enticing you to don yourself in the colorful festive garb of a true Bermuda native! Unwind from your day and come out to see what's offered. ♥ There are all sorts of delicious foods and snacks, and plenty of souvenirs. It's time to ring in the New Year of 2012! Lanterns have been strung up, and the snow seems to have stopped. In fact, no snow is to be seen near the site of the festival itself. Oddly, the booths are all run by strange black goatlike creatures in finely tailored suits...

The catch is, unless you sneak in, you have to come with a friend or a date! So find someone to go in with you! ♥ You may even catch a glimpse of Eureka as she wanders the festival... ]

Yup... I mean, don't go looking for trouble or going out of your way to do things you don't like, and all that. Being happy is real important. But sometimes ya gotta roll with what comes.

[Applejack sighs and trots up alongside Fluttershy, making her best serious face at the goat.]

If'n ya know what's good fer ya, ye'll answer the filly's questions...

[ponycereal.insanejournal.com]

Well, fun's just part'a the territory with bein' friends. Even if it don't go perfect ya can still have fun.

Like when me 'n the girls went ta the Gala last year.

[She smiles and takes his hand, glad to have the help in figuring out all of this festival business. Rukia will be so proud of her. She follows along after him, seeming a little nervous, but then smiles once they're allowed in.]

We did it!

[As if this were a large accomplishment.]

[riderpedia.insanejournal.com]

I agree.

[He loves Shotaro and the others but they're all completely irrational most of the time. But it works for them.]

I'm just.. Philip. I suppose there are other things I could be called but.. none of them quite suit me as well as "Philip".

Would you prefer to be called Brainiac 5? Or Querla? Ms. Dox?

[He's a rather accommodating fellow. Mostly because he's not suited to being alone, and he's trying to befriend as many people as he can. And it would be nice to have someone to research with.]

[watersprout.insanejournal.com]

Oh, no I won't cause any unnessessary trouble or anything like that. You don't have to worry.

I don't think Lady Eureka wouldn't allow trouble on her island.

[upsideyourhead.insanejournal.com]

Heh... If she didn't allow trouble, she wouldn't have brought me.

[partysoft.insanejournal.com]

You don't have to! I mean, um, if you don't feel like it, it's alright...

[ yeah. this isn't going to work. ]

[sealouse.insanejournal.com]

Of course! I'm not a bad guy or anything, ahahaha... haha... haaaa...

... ha?

2/2

[sealouse.insanejournal.com]

...

You just talked, right? I'm not just hearing things?

[partysoft.insanejournal.com]

W-was I not supposed to? I'm sorry...

[sealouse.insanejournal.com]

Uh... n-no, that's okay. I just...

[ You know what? Whatever. WHAT. EVER. IT'S NOT A FISHLIKE CREATURE THAT HOLDS A VENDETTA AGAINST HIM SO HE'S NOT EVEN GOING TO LET IT BOTHER HIM. ]

I don't know any talking ponies.

[coluan.insanejournal.com]

[Her smile isn't as tight-lipped, though still tiny.]

I prefer Brainiac 5 among my teammates, or Ms. Dox with elite company, but for you, you may call me Querla. Dropping the necessities of formality as you have.

[needseyedrops.insanejournal.com]

[And the eyeball starts floating over just because.

Who said final bosses couldn't be bullies?]

[riderpedia.insanejournal.com]

Just Querla then.

[He nodded with a much clearer smile. Philip was very open with his emotions, again if only because he didn't know how not to be. For how smart and rational he was, he was very very childish and easily excited.]

What exactly do you protect against?

[He was curious about this now, wondering if Dopants weren't local to just the world he'd come from.]

[ponycereal.insanejournal.com]

[Applejack frowns and shakes her head a bit. Clearly if she let Fluttershy do the talking, they'd never get anywhere.]

Fluttershy, you let me handle this, okay?

[Applejack steps forward.]

How'd you guys get this all set up so quick? An' what's with all the weird weather?! Ya'll don't look like pegasi!

[coluan.insanejournal.com]

Whatever evil has decided to make nonsense and nothing out of their days. [She sighs, looking to her device.] And then someone tries to demonstrate vain egotism within the team and messes something up yet again.

[riderpedia.insanejournal.com]

...That does seem to be the way of things, doesn't it?

[Though he was sure sometimes it was his own ego that had messed things up. But they'd always come out ahead in the end. At least until Philip had died. But that was taken care of now as well, so he tried not to dwell on it.]

But the familiar is good. Easy to handle.

[coluan.insanejournal.com]

[Querla knew to keep her own ego in check. Of course, she boasted and she prided over her brilliance and title (though often people detailed how it could such a curse), but she never let it interfere with her mission work.] As fun as scraping gelatinous goo from the ceiling truly is?

[She smiles wryly.]

[riderpedia.insanejournal.com]

[Philip chuckles a bit and shakes his head.]

That's not one we usually deal with, fortunately. It's rare anything actually occurs at the agency... Though my cat seems to have made a hobby out of knocking Shotaro's things off of his desk.

[coluan.insanejournal.com]

Only one cat?

[riderpedia.insanejournal.com]

Shotaro doesn't really like Mikku, so I doubt he'd let me bring another cat home... Franky, I'm surprised Shotaro even kept him during the year I was dead.

[soulpaths.insanejournal.com]

[Oh we ain't gonna stop you from doing it, we're just gonna watch and see how this trainwreck turns out. /popcorn.gif]

[watersprout.insanejournal.com]

[Good point. But, he likes to see the point out the good in people so~]

[nervously] Ah--yeah, but you have good reason for it. [He was gonna add, 'most of the time', but that would be impolite, given his nature.]

[upsideyourhead.insanejournal.com]

[Kukaku laughs a bit and musses his hair again.]

I am who I am. I'm trouble but at least my intentions are usually pretty okay.
