Bibi stumbles as she picks herself up from the ground, shooting a glare towards the place she just got kicked out of for starting a fight. "Ya well..,, I didn't fucking wanna stay any.. anyways. 's god damn boooring in there." He shouts as if the door hadn't already been slammed shut.

They start walking swaying a bit and having trouble walking straight. Finding themselves bumping into brick they grumble and brace their hands against it for support.

Fuck he is sooo wasted and probably a bit high on top of that.

She is pretty fucking disorientated to say the least. Which direction was home again? They do not particularly want to deal with Glimmer riding their ass about doing this again.

Another hand hovers above his eyes as if that would actually help him see better and figure out where he's heading. Landmarks.. landmarks..

That way. Maybe. Whatever, it's better than standing around. And off they go again. Trying to steer clear of any would be spots authorities might be hanging out.

[mercurial--supernovae]

I can't get away with anything because they always know.

[mercurial--supernovae]

Dad: What prompted you to follow Unity's lead?

"I mean.. one might think it's cheesy. But I fell hard and fast for Unity. Maybe it was simply a moth to a flame situation. But I was infatuated with her. Smart, cunning, charismatic when she wants to be, powerful. Not to mention incredibly good looking.."

"She knows what she wants and will stop at nothing to get it. I admired her drive as we spoke."

"Why wouldn't I want to be a part of those ambitions?"

[mercurial--supernovae]

Mom: why do you keep yapping in bibi's head when they use their power?

"I contact Cephei far more often than simply that. Although they are prone to attempting to ignore my communications, if not downright attempting to block out my presence entirely with whatever means she can."

"However. Rebellious progeny are far more keen on doing as you'd like if they're under the impression they're doing the opposite."

"I'm simply giving him a nudge in the right direction. I will not allow for them to be for nothing but a waste of my time and energy."

Send "Mom" or "Dad" and a question and my muse's corresponding parent will answer.

[mercurial--supernovae]

Send, "You got me something?" for receiver to give sender a holiday gift!

Send, "This is for you!" and sender will give receiver a present!

[mercurial--supernovae]

No, you don’t understand… I’ll die if I go back! Please don’t tell me to go!

[mercurial--supernovae]

"..I do wonder, would she taste like mint?"

[mercurial--supernovae]

❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️❄️

Huh. You'd think that it was too hot on this planet to produce a decent snowball. Oh well. The attempt at flight would prompt the jolly green menace to start rapid-fire chucking the stuff at you.

Snowballs fell into Mary's hands as though spawned from nowhere, and were catapulted in quick succession, arms twisting at the elbow like a ball-jointed doll.

"ueehee, UEEHEE! WHAt fun, whAT FUN!"

But whatever fun she seemed to be having started to fade quickly, as her smile begins to slip. This new playmate was swift as a snowstorm! Not that this is a problem though!

In a storm of glitter, Mary launches herself into the air, skipping on nothing like some kind of magical reindeer.

Ah. She's coming right toward you.

And she's twirling some tinsel like a lasso.

At least snowballs are much more harmless an ammo when compared to the immense arsenal of mint just moments ago.

Still, Bibi doesn't want those touching him any, doesn't trust it won't end up doing some sort of bizarre nonsense or being more dangerous than they appear.

Whatever, her glaive can melt snow just fine, swinging at any projectile that comes too close to comfort for a dodge. Safe to say, the moth is not smiling as they keep flying as fast as their wings can take them in the opposing direction

Even less when she realizes this freak of Christmas spirit can just bound on air and seemed to have intent to wrangle herself a Bibi.

"Oh no you don't.."

Suddenly their flight pattern becomes more erratic, flitting here and there. Zagging and looping to try and throw off any good clean openings if they can.

[mercurial--supernovae]

You'll be trapped in a future where you can't bare to look yourself in the mirror because your own face makes you sick to your stomach.

send ❄️ to throw a snowball at my muse

[mercurial--supernovae]

Now I see my destiny only brings me pain...

[mercurial--supernovae]

@h0liday-h4v0c :

Welp. It hits her right in the head, and those yellow glowing swirlies are looking right at you with that beautiful ear-to-ear grin.

The confection spins in the air on impact, and lands in Mary Crisis' waiting claws. She lets out a shrill, high-pitched giggle as the candy cane is now twice- thrice- ten times its size, as the massive mint is twirled in her claws.

"ueehEE! GAMES FOR YOu and games for mE!"

Oh, she's winding up.

"CANDY CANE Tag is what i wANT TO SEE!"

The immense treat is now hurling back at you with significantly more force than the first time.

And now more of them are seemingly spawning from the ether, right in your direction... whatever the hell was going on, judging by the delighted giggles coming from the menace's mouth, this being clearly saw it in a deeply skewed light.

They.. May have made a mistake.

Scratch that.

They definitely made a mistake.

Bibi gasps, eyes widening as the candy cane they'd thrown only grew in size, by an alarming amount.

Thank goodness for wings, fluttering fast the moth bolts out of the way of the way of the sugary treat hurtling their direction.

"I didn't agree to this game!"

As more start to appear out of fucking nowhere they can only do what seems like the most sensible thing and take off as fast as they can go. Uncollapsing their glaive in case they may have to slice and dice some incoming mints.

[mercurial--supernovae]

Having so many people around is... comforting...

[mercurial--supernovae]

@h0liday-h4v0c:

here comes a holiday menace! whizzing by and covering the entire street in garlands and tinsel, mary makes her presence known to the populace at large by hurling fucking candy canes at the citizenry.

everywhere the damn thing goes immediately smells of pine and sugar, and - whoop! - one of those candy canes whizzes right by your head.

"ueEHEE! MERR CRIMBS to me, maRY CRISIS! UEEHEE!"

a lanky, shimmering arm chucks what looks like a christmas tree bauble ornament into the air, which bursts into a blinding light, and rains glowing white "snowflakes" down around everything, sticking to everything they touched like glitter.

!!!

One moment you can be minding your own business with plans to do a little grocery shopping and some scouting revolving around some jobs while you're at it. Idly admiring the fact it seemed like the city was actually getting festive this year with the decor, the next a candy cane narrowly misses your fucking face.

Bibi's gaze flicks to the culprit of the attempted sugary assault and their eyes widen. They're really starting to question what normal is even supposed to look like lately.

The moth attempts to brush these glowing snowflakes off their vest, only to promptly realize this is in fact a mistake.

"Oh come on, you have to be fucking kidding me..!"

Any attempts to wipe them off their hands only transfers and exasperates this newfound problem. It's clinging to their velvet so bad. Oh the horror. The indignity!

Finally in exasperation, they pluck up the minty confection that had nearly hit them before and.. throws it hard in the direction of this strange glowing glitter producing Christmas menace.

What could they possibly be hoping to accomplish by doing that? No idea, even they couldn't tell you.

[mercurial--supernovae]

@h0liday-h4v0c:

oh wow oh wow oh WOW!

that circle is doing a lot right now! each component begins to glow a bright white, before shooting frigid energy upward! a bright white line begins to slowly make its way around to each component to the ritual, with a red and green pillar of light emanating within the circle.

the very air in front of kallex begins to warp, and eight, sharp, candy-colored talons begin to tear through the fabric of reality. two golden eyes peek out from within...

as the lumbering figure lurches out of her festive rift in spacetime, pegged legs hit the ground with a loud

clack!

clack!

as the figure straightened to a full 9 foot 3, staring down at the chimera with a shrill, gleeful giggle, before disappearing, the rift swirling closed behind her.

at kallex's feet, lie the remnants of the ritual, the the promised payment.

this. was absolutely just fine.

And thus Kallex receives truly the most precious of gifts to kick off this holiday season...

Friendship.

At least he still got his fancy boots and shield out of this. They even seemed tailored with his aesthetic in mind. How thoughtful!

The chimera stands there in shocked bewilderment, speechless after what had just transpired before his eyes.

This probably should have been expected, but apparently not.

With this strange figure gone, he reaches down to gather his payment, raising down as he picks up a picture that'd been so graciously added to the pot.

What had he gone and gotten himself into..?
