Keiki (GM): Anyway, I think it's time to start. Where's Beepo at?
..."Feyesh": The question remains.
Steev: flashbacks to bumping into snowmen
Steev kicks her Noki Noki Shell at --, rebounding it and dealing 2 damage!
..."Feyesh": Take easy on --!
Steev: what and who is that
Keiki (GM): ... I don't know.
Steev: is it the scarecrow from ocarina of time
..."Feyesh": ...Penguin's Slide's... Slide!
yay sherbet land
The group pops out of the cave, pushing Brownie out. He is now a... sled.
[MUSIC] Penguin's Slide's Slide
..."Feyesh": ...a sled.
Bakudan: ...I feel like I just hibernated a month. Anyone else get that feeling?
Zing Li Fast: This was taking long. I went to feed the birds and later return.
I have returned.
..."Feyesh": cake. my token pls
Zing Li Fast fastly zooms super fast onto the scene.
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: The flesh sled just ate Bakudan.
Zing Li Fast: That's too lewd.
Shin: Zing Li!
Zing Li Fast: .
Shin: We found some weeeeird transformation gear things.
Zing Li Fast: omgwtfyay
Shin: One of them turned Brownie into a... bobsled.
Zing Li Fast: ...This Bobsled is Brownie.
Koopeep: Maybe it'll turn you into a canoe
Zing Li Fast: That's WEEEIIIIIRD, son.
Nah, I'd be a good old plane.
Shin reaches into his pockets.
Shin: Well, turns out there was another one.
Zing Li Fast: .
Shin: And seeing that you love cogs...
Zing Li Fast: :
Shin: And that you love going fast...
Zing Li Fast: .
Shin: And that you may like sleds...
Zing Li Fast: So how do you use this ...(S)?
Koopeep: I think he just touched it
Zing Li Fast: rofl nope I didn't
Shin holds up the gear, still floating around inside of a mysterious bubble.
Koopeep: Brownie touched it
Zing Li Fast: Ohz.
Shin: I think you just pop it.
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: Also remember that deserter beetle we found in the cave?
the one that was hilariously helpless and stuck on that patch of ice?
Zing Li Fast: :
Koopeep: the one who hated Private Garrison's leadership?
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: What happened to him, did we forget him in there or what.
Zing Li Fast: ?
Anyway, this sounds fun, so thud.
Zing Li Fast touches the goddamn orb
Koopeep: AAAA GA WHA
Zing Li Fast is a goddamn bobsled.
Koopeep: It never gets any easier seeing that happen
Zing Li Fast: ...(S) that's ...(S)ing awesome.
Bobo_Jinky: do you just have a sprite of everyone as a sled
Zing Li Fast: Who wants a Nice. Ice. ride?
Bakudan: I do!
Zing Li Fast: Well, then pick your goddamn sled.
It's me or hot old Brownie.
Bakudan: I am underneath you.
Zing Li Fast: oops, LOL
Keiki (GM): Huh. It's not loading the picture for some reason.
Bakudan: Stop floating!
That's cheating.
You need to be touching the snow.
Zing Li Fast: I don't wanna. I'm just gonna hover over it like a mother...(S)ing ...(S)ass.
Koopeep: How
exactly
does this help us again?
I get that we want to beat Avalanche at sledding for disrespecting the name of Lord Bowser.
Shin shrugs.
Zing Li Fast: Hovering over snow feels great, especially when you're a Buller Sled.
Bakudan: We can enter a race and crush Avalanche with sheer skill!
Koopeep: But how does that, y'know, benefit us
Zing Li Fast: Bullet*
Shin: I think it'd help Brownie out since he entered into the competition on a bet.
Keiki (GM): Gonna refresh.
Zing Li Fast: ...on a bet
Koopeep: I have to bail out that brown bobsled every other fight! Now I have to help him win a bet he can't win?
Zing Li Fast: Never pick a bet you can't win.
..."Feyesh": Cake, my picture is still not loading =/
Keiki (GM): Yeah. This is weird.
..."Feyesh": .
Keiki (GM): Roll20 is being... dumb.
..."Feyesh": .
beeoi h.: Ok this website is such complete garbage
Keiki (GM): Anyway. I think we'll just have to continue as is.
..."Feyesh": CRUNCH! The_Heap'll add it to The_Heap!
Shin: Hm. How do we even enter?
Zing Li Fast: The question remains.
Brownie: Man, it feels like I've been in a coma for 3 weeks or something.
..."Feyesh": omgwtfyay it loaded
Shin: Oh hey, a bird.
Zing Li Fast: ...a bird picpic
Bakudan: Hello birdybird!
Zing Li Fast: I'm not a bird! pecks Keiki (GM)
Koopeep: Every time you talk it just adds to my confusion and terror about this whole metamorphosis.
Franz Kafka himself could not design such a nightmarish transformation.
Zing Li Fast: ok better now
kafka fetish
..."Feyesh": Both sled pictures are very great.
Koopeep: Can we please do... whatever it is we're doing?
Zing Li Fast: I don't know, can we?
Shin: Come to think of it... Weren't we going to get information on Bowser from Elder Pennington?
Brownie: Were we?
I only recall turning into a sled.
Zing Li Fast: ...Elder Pennington
Bob B.: Hopefullly this time my connection will stay...
Brownie: And I moneymatched a penguin.
Don't wanna be late for that.
..."Feyesh": .
Shin: Sled races are pretty great, but we should take care of some business.
Zing Li Fast: :
Ake: All of our connections suck apparently.
..."Feyesh": .
Koopeep perks right up
Koopeep: Then let's go find out about Lord Bowser's whereabouts!
Bakudan: Can our friends... unsled?
Brownie: You really know how to put us on the right track, Shin. It's like you're pals with some sort of omniscient narrator..
Koopeep: ...I don't feel like pushing these big clunky sleds up the hill
Zing Li Fast: prollynotherelol
Bakudan: Or do we bring them in sled form?
Brownie: I never liked these transformations all that much.
Shin turns to the sledpeople.
Zing Li Fast: I don't need anyone pushing me, I can just glide over the snow. Because I'm a rebel. Oh yeah.
Shin: Do you guys want to... unsled?
Zing Li Fast: How to unsled?
Brownie: I dunno, is it super neccesary?
Bakudan: Well, I suppose you could talk to the elder as a sled.
Brownie: I think this would be a good way of practicing for the sledoff, but if I have to.
Shin: You could be a sled for the rest of your life.
Brownie: I mean, your'e kidding, right? It's Mario.
Of course I can talk as a sled.
Zing Li Fast: .
Brownie: Oh.
Koopeep: OR
Or
Brownie: Well that would be crud.
Koopeep: we leave these abominations at the bottom of the hill
Zing Li Fast: So how do you turn this off? Is it just as easy as pushing a button? Sled on, sled off.
Brownie: How do I unsled, then?
Koopeep: And then get them when it's time to use these tools
Shin shrugs.
Zing Li Fast: ..."abominations"
Shin: Maybe thinking really hard about unsledding?
Has that thought ever crossed your mind in your life?
Just... unsledding.
Zing Li Fast buzzes in really hard with his imagination
Shin: It's a weird thought.
Brownie thinks really hard about unsledding and spots the dog
Zing Li Fast: .
Bakudan falls to the ground!
Bakudan: Oof!
Koopeep: Zing vanished
damn it
he's back
Zing Li Fast comes out of the Hyperbolic Sled Chamber
Zing Li Fast: Just in time>_>
oops, LOL
Well, I'd like to become a sled when it's time to race.
Otherwise, nah, too busy parroting.
Brownie: Let's go parrot up some penguins.
Zing Li Fast: .
..."Feyesh": Our pictures are gone again...
Keiki (GM): It's happening again.
..."Feyesh": .
Shin: Good idea, Brownie. We need to find out where he is!
Steev: Pictures are not important, we know who's who
Koopeep huffs and puffs as she stomps up the snowy hill
Shin: I wonder if those penguins are still at the top.
Koopeep: I... hate... hiking
Brownie: #Navigation
Zing Li Fast helps pulls Bakudan out of the ground
Bakudan measures how deep the snow is.
Shin: #Climb
Zing Li Fast: #Tumble
Koopeep: I hate the snow, and I hate the cold
I hate the cold, and I hate the snow
Brownie: I agree with the princess for once, hiking's a bore.
The snow appears to be rather deep.
..."Feyesh": I HATE ICE!!!!!!
Zing Li Fast: ...princess
deep. win.
Bakudan: I hope I don't trip and roll down the hill!
:
rolling d20

Zing Li Fast: .
Bakudan trips and rolls down the hill.
Koopeep: Huff... Pufff... and huff'n'puff
Bakudan: Damnit!
Zing Li Fast: HEFF...PEFF... and HEFFn'PEFF
Bakudan: Hey Garrison!
You coming?
Bakudan lifts Garrison.
Bakudan brings him up the hill.
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: You. Pinkguin
Keiki (GM): Bree is apparently having connection problems.
Koopeep: Tell me where your elder is
Ashley Pennington: Elder? Elder who?
Zing Li Fast: ...Ashley Pennington
Ashley Pennington: Do you mean grandad?
Koopeep: Sure.
Probably.
Bob B.: Ooh, I see things!
Ashley Pennington: ... Oh. Tee hee! Well, he's in the big house back west. He lives in-town.
Garrison Jr.: I feel like I've been having flashbacks to bootcamp
Ashley Pennington: I'm helping these guys fix their sled.
Brownie: That doesnt' look like a sled.
Koopeep: That's because it's broken
Brownie: More like a tree stump, or a rock on a bad day.
Koopeep: Don't be rude
Thank you for your help, young lady.
Ashley Pennington: Tee hee! You're welcome!
Ashley Pennington winks.
Brownie blinks
Garrison Jr.: What happened to our Yoshi Sled?
Ake: Is Bitto RPing Ashley or something?
Brownie: I undid the transformation.
Koopeep: He turned back into a regular Yoshi, keep up
Zing Li Fast: ...Ashley Pennington winks.
Koopeep: Alright, Koopa Troop! We're marching west!
Ashley Pennington: Aren't those guys weird? I'd rate them lower than my classmates.
Garrison Jr.: I follow no Koopa!
Zing Li Fast: classmate fetish
Koopeep: Walking behind me makes you following a koopa, you goob
Zing Li Fast: ...goob
Brownie: I guess we're just ignoring this silly sled thing? Well, I'll emphasize speed over compassion any day.
Brownie mock-marches
[MUSIC] Penguin's Slide
[MUSIC] Wind
Zing Li Fast: Brownie's Brownie's name, speed's his game.
Brownie: Is it this one? or did they mean the item shop.
I'm just gonna go with my gut.
Brownie opens Da Door
Zing Li Fast follows Brownie
Shin: She said it was the big house.
But we can go in there!
Garrison Jr.: The one in the north is the biggest one around, then
Shin: Not like we could get arrested and tortured for entering random houses in this world.
Koopeep: Whaaat
Since when
Brownie: Is this house not big enough for you, Shin????
Zing Li Fast: ...Shin????
...Bumpty
beeoi h.: What a house.
Bumpty puts down his book and feigns surprise at the entry of Brownie and Zing Li.
Koopeep: This big house is small
Bumpty: Oh hello. I didn't see you there.
beeoi h.: Hey dude, your house hasn't got any goodies in hit.
Brownie: Hey dude, your house hasn't got any goodies in hit.
Zing Li Fast: Hullo.
Bumpty: I was just reading about the Penguin's Slide Race. It's a very deep book.
Acre: two hours of file select screen and maybe some dire dire docks mixed in
Bob B.: His house looks pretty bare to be holding anything
Koopeep: For god's sake, close the door you two
Brownie: 'Is this story going to end in me getting an item or a statistical bonus?
Cuz if not I'm afraid I'm not interested.
..."Feyesh": Acre, gamers.
Acre: acregames is my youtube channel
it's aitch tee tee pee
Zing Li Fast: So what kind of deep. win. things did you learn?
Bumpty: 'Fraid I don't have anything on me but the dramatic stories I tell.
..."Feyesh": .
Zing Li Fast: Fill us with lol drama, then.
Bumpty: I learned that the Penguin's Slide Race can be quite... dirty. In fact, it's completely condoned.
Brownie: I might as well take a break and hear the deets.
Shocking!
Acre: holy crap Acre Gamers is an actual youtube channel.
SV, you are a monster.
..."Feyesh": ...Acre Gamers
Bumpty: It's not uncommon for the competitors to fight on top of their sleds mid-race.
Acre: it's probably brazilian??
Zing Li Fast: That's WEEEEIIIIRD, man.
..."Feyesh": I never heard of it???
Zing Li Fast: Why would you fight on the top of a sled.
It's cold out there.
Acre: Crazy_e-Sports vs -ExploZioN.
Brownie: I'm a lover, not a fighter.
Bumpty: Some noble penguins are honorable. Some of them... they just want to win.
Steev: If you can take advantage of a situation in some way, it's your duty as an american to do it. Why should the race always be to the swift, or the jumble to the quick-witted? Should they be allowed to win merely because of the gifts god gave them? Well I say, "Cheating is the gift man gives himself."
..."Feyesh": ... Crazy_e-Sports vs -ExploZioN.
Zing Li Fast: I'm a racer, not a fighter.
Bumpty: Understandable!
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: Avalanche is a particular dirty racer lately. We bumpties call these racers a "heel"
Zing Li Fast: So... why is it condoned, if it's dirty?
..."heel"
Bumpty: Because we penguins like the spectacle of it all.
Zing Li Fast: .
Acre: All drama, no race
Brownie: As much as I can appreciate that, I kind of bet money on this race.
Bumpty: Is the penguin with the regular name going to win? Or will the Understinker take it all?
Brownie: So I really need to win.
..."Feyesh": also awesome SM64 as always said
Zing Li Fast: ...Understinker
Acre: hecka windy though
..."Feyesh": .
Zing Li Fast: So like. are the races one on one?
Bumpty: Nope. Usually a handful compete at once.
There's a saying you hear occasionally. It is "The more the derriere"
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: We actually believe in a more obscure phrase, "The more the merrier"
Zing Li Fast: .
So... what are the usual rewards for winning?
Steev: Enrollment in the Koopa Troop I bet
..."Feyesh": koopa troop fetish
Bumpty: The Star Trophy! It's an artifact from the nearby Celestial Sanctum.
It's said to radiate power, as if it grants a mystical resource of the stars!
Zing Li Fast: intervessing
So, there's only one of those?
Bumpty flips pages through his book.
Bumpty: No. There's one every year.
Steev: if you haven't noticed my koopa troop fetish by now I don't know what's wrong with you
Zing Li Fast: .
And... is it that time of the year?
Bumpty nods.
Bumpty: When the hardest snow hits, we race.
Steev: you guys we gotta win the Twilight Town struggle tournament to get that trophy
Zing Li Fast: .
..."Feyesh": .
Zing Li Fast: Are bets common between racers?
Brownie: Got any cheat codes in that book that can help me win?
Bumpty: If it happens, I think it happens behind the scenes.
Zing Li Fast: cheating fetish
Bumpty: Never know with the shadier types.
Bumpty flips through his book.
Bumpty: I only see the big head cheat code, but I don't think anyone really wants that.
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: Anyway. You two looks like you'd make a sterling team or something. If not that, then... perhaps it's the twinkle in your eye that says it all.
Zing Li Fast: I'm the fastest sledder this side of Nice. Ice. Peak.
Steev: Big Head mode will help us win
Brownie: I getcha.
Zing Li Fast: .
One last question: who's the biggest winner of these races?
Bumpty: Just one person?
Well... Avalanche has been winning a lot recently. Always causes a ruckus about it, too.
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: You don't even see this much ruckus when we play cave hockey.
At night!
Zing Li Fast: LOL I PLAY CAVE HOCKY AT NIGHT
Bumpty sips some herbal tea.
Bumpty: Mm... Turtley Leaf.
Brownie: Cool story bro, but we've gotta meet with someone.
See you at the race if you're in the audience.
Brownie leaves Da House.
Bumpty: I may just watch. I love seeing outsiders enter.
Zing Li Fast: This sounds deep. win.
Well, thanks for zee storiesness.
Bumpty nods.
Zing Li Fast also leaves Da House
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: I appreciate your company.
... I wish they'd close that door.
Shin: Y'know, I think I like the shape.
... Of the house, y'know.
It feels like it'd contain someone important.
Zing Li Fast: .
Bakudan: Of t-- Yeah, it's pretty cool!
Garrison Jr. knocks on the door with his cannon
Brownie jumps through the window
Brownie looks like a dopey crow that flies into a window.
Garrison Jr.: It's a classic
beeoi h.: ...A dopey crow that flies into a window.
"Come in, come in!" An older voice calls out.
beeoi h.: That's a pretty dopey crow
Brownie comes ins.
Bakudan also comes in!
Zing Li Fast: ...These crows are so "dopey".
Garrison Jr. goes in
Zing Li Fast also goes innside
Bakudan: Hello elder bumpty!
We're prospective racers!
Koopeep can't wait to get out of the cold
Zing Li Fast: Hello, proud penelder!
Koopeep closes the door
Garrison Jr. closes the door
Bakudan: This is a very lovely house you have!
Koopeep: Beat you to it again, bug
It's sweet of you to follow a Koopa's lead
Elder Pennington bundles himself up in an elaborate blanket and sighs.
Garrison Jr. grumbles
Elder Pennington: Why yes, it is a rather lovely abode.
Koopeep: A salubrius salutation to you, elder pennington
We have some business to discuss with you
Elder Pennington: Aren't you a diverse troupe? What brings you to our humble town in the mountains?
Ooh, business?
Koopeep: We were pointed this way by a Goomba Elder from Boot Town.
Keiki (GM): Phone
beeoi h.: Phone
Bobo_Jinky: who was it
Keiki (GM): Some guy. Anyway.
Elder Pennington: Oh yes, a goomba elder?
Elder Pennington chuckles.
Elder Pennington: I bet I know who you're talking about. What was his name again?
Koopeep: eheh, you know I am the worst with names. Mr. Shin, what was the name of the goomba elder in Boot Town?
The one who gave us that lovely Terra Quilt patch as a boon
Shin checks his notes.
Bakudan: Braum or something?
Shin: Ah, Goombraum was his anme.
Koopeep: Thank you
Elder Goombraum.
He said you could help us in our quest to collect the Terra Quilt
Elder Pennington: Ah, he gave you the Terra Patch, eh? I don't see him doing that so easy.
He must really trust you lot.
... Hmm...
Elder Pennington pauses.
Koopeep: We had to destroy a castle and a giant cannon bombarding his village.
Most of us died.
Then we got better.
You could say we're pretty trustworthy.
Koopeep whispers "except the buzzy beetle."
Elder Pennington coughs.
Elder Pennington: I think you are rather trustable.
Brownie: Our tables can much trust, yes.
contain*
Koopeep: Then I trust you to help us
Shin sits down on the chair.
Koopeep: We'd like the terra patch and directions to the next elder.
You can trust us. Did you see the way we closed your door?
Bakudan: We should at least do him a favour for it first.
Koopeep deathglares at Bakudan
Elder Pennington: Well... The thing is, I'm not sure I could just give up this patch.
Bakudan: How about...
...We sew you a new patch?
Elder Pennington: It's not that I don't trust you. It's just that the thing holds too great of a sentimental value to me.
Koopeep: And we appreciate that
But this is a "fate of the world" sort of urgency.
At least we imagine it is.
Acre: it's not
Bakudan: Do you know Mario?
Elder Pennington rolls over to the side of his bed.
Garrison Jr.: We are willing to aid you in return for your aid, sir!
Elder Pennington: I do indeed know Mario. But say you complete this with the other... oh, 6 patches left.
What do you intend to do with a completed Terra Quilt?
Acre: why is pennington holding a cane while also lying inside of a bed
Brownie: We never really planned that out, did we?
Bakudan: Well, Mario is committing acts of evil.
Acre: or on, rather, and covered in blankets
Koopeep: Keep them safe
Bakudan: We believe he's being mind controlled.
Koopeep: From that villainous Mario.
YOU believe he's being mind controlled.
Bakudan: The Terra Quilt is our attempt at stopping him.
Elder Pennington nods.
Koopeep: I've seen scores of my people crushed under his feet. SCORES, I say!
Bakudan: Goombraum mentioned a mind control badge!
Acre: the score comes from the urtle after getting crushed
Koopeep: He also mentioned a fancy painting, that doesn't mean it's going to be relevant to our quest.
Acre: get your facts right
Garrison Jr.: Eggheads keep treading where beetlekind was not meant to tread
Elder Pennington lets out a hacking cough.
Bakudan: When we're done with the quilt, we'll return the patches to their previous owners.
Koopeep: Absolutely
Koopeep crosses her fingers behind her back.
Koopeep: Do you need a heal?
I can do that sort of thing.
I'm pretty great at it.
Best white magikoopa in my entire class.
The only one, but still the best.
Acre: and the worst
Steev: Yes acre that's exactly what it says in my character's bio
Elder Pennington: Oh, you are a healer? I have a mysterious cough... I'm not sure what is causing it...
It happened around racing season.
Garrison Jr.: Her class was the remedial one
Brownie: Has white magic even progressed to that point?
If you can prevent illnesses, maybe you should go back in time and save Bobbery's wife.
Koopeep: There's a big jump between healing a cough and time traveling
You can go fast. Why not outrun death?
Brownie: I plan on it.
Koopeep: Anyway, let's give this a shot.
Koopeep casts a healing spell on Bumpty, healing for 3 HP!
beeoi h.: Also in the Mario universe time travel is possible, while illnesses are hard to deal with
Partners in Time son
I'm up on my mario lore
Shin: I don't see any harm in healing him.
Elder Pennington: Ooh, that feels wond--
Acre: but if you save bobbery's wife, he might not go with mario and then the shadow queen might end up destroying the world
Steev: Let's just wait for another time traveling alien invasion
Elder Pennington suddenly conks out.
Koopeep: Welp
We did our best
The next thing we should do is go to the race track and firm up our alibis.
Brownie: I'm half with you.
Garrison Jr.: Is he dead?
Koopeep: No, he's not dead!
I had my wand set to "heal"
Bakudan: ...What did you do to him?
This is no way to get the patch!
Koopeep quickly switches the setting on the wand to heal
Brownie: We do need to go to the race track and put the track on download at some point.
But hey, Bakudan's got a point.
Koopeep: Old people always want favors!
Brownie: Dude's knocked out, why don't we just grab the patch?
Garrison Jr.: We should make sure the elder is okay, first
Koopeep: Why can't they just make way for the new hotness.
Brow is correct.
Garrison Jr.: A town can't be left without a leader!
Shin checks Elder Pennington's vitals.
Bakudan: I can't believe you'd consider that.
Koopeep: I'd bet that the prolonged exposure to the patch is what's makign him sick anyway
Bakudan: You know what would happen if you took it?
Koopeep: And Private Garrison, that's like saying an army can't be left without its leader, and yet yours is doing fine
Brownie: ...We'd be one step closer to quest completion?
Bakudan: We go to the next elder, and he'll say, "Oh, Elder Pennington contacted me! You have bounties on your head! I sure do want that gold!"
Garrison Jr.: I agree with Bakudan, we can't stoop to something so dishonorable!
Shin: Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear...
Brownie: I'm ok with playing Mario Theft Auto.
The door starts to turn.
Koopeep: Then i'll just heal THAT elder and we'll take his patch too
Bakudan: Ashley!
Your grandpa is sick with something.
Koopeep: Oh
Ashley Pennington: Grandad!
Koopeep: Hello
Pinkguin
Ashley Pennington: ... He's sick? Oh no! Dang it...
He should be taking his medicine!
Bakudan: Where is it?
Ashley Pennington looks in surprise.
Ashley Pennington: Oh no! Oh no oh no oh no...
Ashley Pennington checks a cabinet below the television set.
Acre: penguin murder mystery time
Ashley Pennington: Take your medicine, grandad.
Koopeep: Maybe he'll feel better with his favorite quilt wrapped around him.
You go bring that here
The elder penguin slowly chews on his medicine before swallowing it.
Elder Pennington perks up again.
Elder Pennington: Hoo boy huzzats-- Oh.
What's going on?
Bakudan: What are you sick with?
Koopeep: You were about to give us the Terra Patch for healing you
Elder Pennington: I dunno. It's quite a drag.
Ashley Pennington: Clutch the special blankie, grandad, it'll make you feel better.
Elder Pennington nods and smacks his beak-chops.
Elder Pennington: Right, right...
About giving you that Terra Patch...
Koopeep: Yesssss?
Elder Pennington: ... I can't. I'd love to be selfless, frankly, I need it right now to keep me through this illness.
Garrison Jr.: What if we found a way to cure your illness, sir?
Brownie: That's a great idea. We could raise money for...whatever-it-is-you-have awareness.
Elder Pennington: I would happily depart with it, in that case. I don't want to hold onto this for sentimental sake.
Bakudan: What could possibly cure it, though?
Elder Pennington: Well...
I do. But you get the idea.
Koopeep: But you said before you WERE holding onto it for--
dght
Ashley Pennington gets in a huff.
Koopeep: Fine.
How about another healing spell.
Brownie gets in a puff.
Ashley Pennington: Grandad, have you been eating Ancheepies again? Your breath smells!
Garrison Jr.: Your healing spell did nothing of the sort. Stand down!
Acre: ....ancheepies
Elder Pennington: ... Maybe.
I got them from a nice old penguin from Rockhop. You don't see many nice ones these days!
Ashley Pennington: ... Hm.
Koopeep: Quiet, beetle, or I'll "heal" you next.
Garrison Jr.: Is there something wrong with ancheepies?
Ashley Pennington: Well... There shouldn't be.
Bakudan: Do you think they were poisoned?
Ashley Pennington: I should go get my thinking cap for this one. Seeya!
Ashley Pennington leaves.
Bakudan: Well.
Brownie puts on his thinking cap.
Garrison Jr.: Is there someone after your position, sir? Do you have any enemies?
Brownie: Well, I've got an hypothesis.
Elder Pennington: Oogh...
Koopeep: I'd imagine the second oldest Bumpty would be in line for the spot of elder.
Brownie: NONE OF THIS IS AS IMPORTANT AS MY SLEDDING MATCH.
Therefore, I propose we sled the ...(S) out of this 6 penguin town.
Koopeep: You're the only one who cares about the hole you dug yourself into!
Elder Pennington: Oh, you're entered to sled?
Brownie: I bet Zing would have my back if he wasn't a snail.
You bet.
Elder Pennington: Weird... I don't see anything on the rosters...
I suppose since I can't give you the Terra Patch right now, I could pull some strings...
Brownie: What, do I have to fill out paperwork, or something? Nobody told me about the proper procedure, dude.
Koopeep grumbles
Koopeep: You CAN you just don't want to.
Elder Pennington: I'll waive the Penguin Coin entry fee for you to join the competition.
Brownie: Awesome, thanks you sick ...(S)
I think Zing wanted to join too, though he seems to be coming down with something himself.
Bakudan: Thank you!
Acre: Just twenty more minutes for literally two hours of file select screen
..."Feyesh": flop20. flop.
Still awesome music
Koopeep: So IF we win the race.
What, will you give us that Terra Patch boon then?
Zing Li Fast: I wanna be the very fastest
Elder Pennington coughs.
Elder Pennington: I suppose we'll see.
Zing Li Fast: Like no Bullet Penguin ever was
So I'm in.
Elder Pennington: It'd be nice to see someone bring Avalanche down a peg.
Elder Pennington nods.
Elder Pennington: I'll get you entered.
Zing Li Fast: .
Elder Pennington: Both of you.
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: No no no nononono
..."Feyesh": Acre: This is the WORST BADGE EVER, gamers.
Koopeep: No "we'll see"
We are trying to save the world.
We need a promise
Bakudan: We're entering anyway, Koopeep.
Acre: This is the worst badge ever indeed.
Elder Pennington chuckles.
..."Feyesh": :(
Elder Pennington: Fraid I can't promise anything.
Acre: ... gamers
..."Feyesh": .
Elder Pennington: Hope you folks bring your A-game to the competition.
Zing Li Fast: .
Brownie: I'm brignin' my (S) Game
Zing Li Fast: (S) Sleds!
Koopeep slams her head against the wall
Zing Li Fast: that's dangerous
Acre: whoa, there
watch for the galsses
..."Feyesh": ...galsses
Acre: you just broke your glasses on your face, koopeep
way to go, genius
Koopeep: Just ONCE
..."Feyesh": way to go, gamers.
Koopeep: Just once I would like the rest of you to make something simple.
Fine
Go sledding.
As Koopeep pounds her head on the wall, a closet door opens.
Zing Li Fast: Sledding... and ice cream cake! Vbaboovoovoo!
Acre: ... vbaboovoovoo
..."Feyesh": .
A broom falls out of the broom closet.
Acre: what the (S) is "vbaboovoovoo"
Koopeep pounces on the broom
Koopeep: MINE
..."Feyesh": It is VROOM! VROOM!, only sleddier.
Elder Pennington: Hey, could you shut that closet door? I'd appreciate it.
..."Feyesh": And less fire partyish.
Acre: ... Vroom VROOM
..."Feyesh": .
Acre: get it because brooms
..."Feyesh": .
Koopeep: Tell me this is an enchanted broom. It would make my life so much simpler.
Elder Pennington: Huh? Uh...
Alright.
It is an enchanted broom.
Koopeep doesnt' notice the hesitation
Koopeep: Yesssss
Koopeep closes the closet door and keeps the broom
Zing Li Fast: broom fetish
Koopeep: That's right, bullet.
Elder Pennington: I need to get a new broom that ain't wicker, anyway.
Zing Li Fast: .
beeoi h.: Ain't No Rest For the Wicker
Koopeep: Finally, I'll be able to fly like a proper magikoopa!
Zing Li Fast: awesome
Koopeep: I can't wait to go outside and try it out!
Koopeep rushes outside
Brownie spins around an arbitrary number of times and then goes outside too
Shin: Thanks, sir!
Bakudan: Thanks for all your help, elder!
Shin: We'll try and win the race.
Bakudan: I hope you get well soon!
Shin leaves.
Zing Li Fast 's ribbon doesn't spin, so he leaves.
Bakudan leaves.
Garrison Jr.: When is this race, anyway?
Shin: You seem really excited for something, Koopeep!
You were pounding your head on the wall earlier.
Zing Li Fast: .
Shin: Did you pound some happiness into your soul?
Koopeep: No, Mr. Shin.
I have in my hands, a magic broomstick
Acre: whao since when are we in "mr." territory
Steev: Since literally the second session
..."Feyesh": ...whao
Shin looks at the broom.
Brownie: ur mr shin
Acre: wahey
..."Feyesh": .
Shin pulls out the book to flip through a few pages, and then puts it away.
Shin: I'm not sure if that's actually magical, Koopeep!
Koopeep: Of course it is.
Brownie pulls out his pokemon gold strategy guide and flips through a few pages before putting it away.
Koopeep: ...why do you say that.
Brownie: Nope. Says right here it is.
Koopeep: Do NOT say that.
Zing Li Fast: (S)mon gold more like (S)mon gold
Acre: it's not magical, it's enchanted
Koopeep: I don't care WHAT it is, as long as it's flying!
Avalanche: Heh.
Zing Li Fast: ...Heh.
Acre: ......Heh.
Avalanche: ....................... Heh.
Zing Li Fast: .................................................................Heh, gamers.
Brownie: I think he's got us beat there.
Acre: damn
..."Feyesh": .
Acre: I got out.............hehed
Shin: Well uh... You can try it out!
..."Feyesh": ...heheheh I win
Koopeep sits on the Broomstick and says the magic words
Koopeep: Upsie Daisy!
Zing Li Fast: Hi Koopeep's Daisy.
The broomstick sits around.
Acre: roll smarts to see if you pronounced it properly
Koopeep:

Acre: brooms are sticklers for pronunciation
ho ho ho ho hoooooo
Shin: Whoa, nice trips, Zing Li.
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: So
This isn't a flying broomstick.
Shin: It seems that's just a regular broomstick!
But hey, maybe you can whack people with it.
Koopeep: I think I'm going to cry.
Garrison Jr.: Maybe the broomstick doesn't need to be magical. Maybe the power is inside you.
Acre: Throw it like a javelin and it's a flying broom.
..."Feyesh": javelin fetish
Shin: Well... At the very least you can maybe get it enchanted.
Koopeep: Let's just sled or something, I don't even care anymore.
Bobo_Jinky: Q_Q
Brownie: Q_Q
Zing Li Fast: Q_Q
Acre: Q_Q
Brownie: We shall sled.
Zing Li Fast: This is taking long. I shall sled with the birds and return.
I have returned.
Brownie: So what are the non-sledders gonna do during the race?
Zing Li Fast: Ride us?
Brownie: Just gonna be cheerleaders?
Shin: I imagine I'm going to have fun and ride you!
Brownie: Yeah, that makes sense.
Zing Li Fast: Makes sense. Makes sense.
Brownie: Is there enough room for everyne?
one*
Bakudan: Two people per sled sounds okay to me!
Garrison Jr.: We all fit on you before
Shin: Let's head to the practice slopes.
Zing Li Fast: .
Brownie: I thought that was a DM fiat.
Zing Li Fast: ...DM fiat
Koopeep: Having more weight on a sled would increase its speed.
Brownie: Anyway, let's get to checking out our mountain.
Bakudan: I get dibs on Zing Li!
Zing Li Fast: .
Bakudan heads to the slopes!
Zing Li Fast also heads to the slopes
Acre: official two hour point of title select screen
Koopeep: nope
Acre: Maybe?
Koopeep: music changed
..."Feyesh": now two hours of yay sherbet land
Acre: did it change before
Brownie: Wasn't this the loser slope? Thought I heard something about that.
Zing Li Fast: ...loser slope
Bakudan: Pfft, who cares.
Sled yourself!
Zing Li Fast: I have a better idea. I... will ride Brownie, and everyone else rides me. We shall call it the (S) Mountain Sled of Doom.
I'm kidding.
Bumpty: ... Mountain Sled of Doom.
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: Oh hey!
We got our sled fixed!
Bakudan: Oh good, who fixed it?
Zing Li Fast: omgwtfyay
Bumpty: Ashley did earlier!
Zing Li Fast: ...A "grrl" fixed it.
Bakudan: That's great! Hopefully she isn't a secret agent of Avalanche.
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: Pssh. Fat chance!
About as fat as... Avalanche.
Hey, do you guys know how to sled?
Brownie thinks about being a sled.
Bumpty: ... Do you guys even have sleds?
Brownie becomes a goddamn bobled.
Bakudan: Yes!
Zing Li Fast touches the goddamn orb, and becomes a goddamn sled.
... bobled
Zing Li Fast: ...bobled
Garrison Jr.: We have two!
Acre: ...
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: Fancy... technology you have there.
Brownie: Where's the turbo boost on this thing.
Acre: what
Koopeep: Oh yeah. It's MAGIC. They touch a thing and THEY get MAGIC VEHICLES
Zing Li Fast: .
So who will be the ride of ..."Koopeep"
Koopeep: I'd love to have a magic vehicle. But NOOOOO
Shin: Hm... I wonder who's going to ride which one?
Bakudan: Maybe if you think hard enough you'll become a flesh broom.
Brownie: Women and children don't ride me
Potentially traumatizing experience.
Zing Li Fast: .
Koopeep: well I hate zing, but I hate garrison.
Acre: but
baby mario rode you >:c
Zing Li Fast: .
Bumpty: You may have fancy sleds, but we better teach you the ropes!
Zing Li Fast: ...>:c
Koopeep: and Brownie was officially made my mount, but bakudan and shin are the only two I can even stand
Zing Li Fast: ok hop on in "kooky" person
Acre: mr. "orginal yoshi from every sixth level in yoshi island".
yeah, I'm calling you out as a FAKER
The two bumpties bring their sled over.
..."Feyesh": ...mr. "orginal yoshi from every sixth level in yoshi island".
Steev: mr oc I already stole
Koopeep: maybe bakudan will explode and kill me.
That'd be nice.
beeoi h.: I found you
FAKER
Zing Li Fast: that's dangerous
Garrison Jr.: That would kill Zing, too
Acre: faker?
Bumpty: So first you need the back person to be behind, pushing the sled.
Bakudan: Don't set my fuse on fire while you're behind me!
Garrison Jr.: We can't be down two soldiers!
Acre: you're the fake yoshi around here
...I don't remember the rest
beeoi h.: Remarkable--for someone such as I to have located this spiny mammal of the subfamily Erinaceinae in such a timely fashion! Alas, I have no time to celebrate, as you have offended me with the ingenuine nature of your being.
Shin: I suppose I better get ready.
Zing Li Fast: I'm immune to explosions. Because I'm a rebel. Oh yeah.
Brownie: This course hardly looks dynamic.
Zing Li Fast: Brownie is the greatest example of an admired aesthetic associated with rebels.
Koopeep: It just dawned on me that only two people in our party have real working arms.
Zing Li Fast: I have arms too, you ...(S)er.
Bumpty: You're gonna be pushing the sled from behind, and once you got it there, it's the sled's work to steer.
Acre: I can't wait to witness the sled physics engine
Koopeep: You and the yoshi have vestigial arms.
Acre: Maybe that's why the symbol for a sled is a cog.
Bumpty: You guys ready?
Zing Li Fast: I can pick things up just alright. I could pick you up like a bodybuilder!
Bakudan: I'm ready!
Zing Li Fast: .
Brownie: gogogogo
Bumpty: Ready...
Set...
Keiki (GM): End of session!

beeoi h.: SEAMLESS cliffhanger
Bob B.: The suspense!
