PUBLIC CHANNEL

The Psionic here with a very important announcement.

The sense of camaraderie in our department is at an all time low. So, to fix this, attendance at Rex the Rat's birthday party is now mandatory for all Labor Department members. Also I will be bringing twister and you absolutely will have to play.

Chiaki may have gotten out of planning, but Lars, don't think you won't have to make the food still. And I think we have someone new so if your name is Adrien and you're listening to this, please go ahead and publicly introduce yourself. Yes you will have to come to the party.

If anyone knows any party games that will force people to get up close and personal, I'm open to suggestions.

[He doesn't even know who "the Johns" are so that won't be too hard.]

I won't.

[dorkypantsuit]

So tell me about France and Europe.

[chattypuns]

What do you want to know about them?

[dorkypantsuit]

Is giving vague answers a tradition there?

[chattypuns]

[Okay, he laughs a little at that.]

Sorry, I'm not trying to... I just wasn't expecting so many questions.

[dorkypantsuit]

This is why we need to have a party, so everyone can get to know each other without feeling like their playing 'a fair assortment of strategically asked questions.'

[chattypuns]

I think a party sounds like fun.

[dorkypantsuit]

Bonus points, you've just earned some newbie.

[chattypuns]

Just for liking parties?

[dorkypantsuit]

Yes, just for that.

That should give you some idea of the kind of people I have to deal with around here.

[chattypuns]

I was wondering why a party would have to be mandatory.

[dorkypantsuit]

Yeah, you'd think people would want to have fun.

[chattypuns]

Maybe they just aren't sure about a party for a rat?

[dorkypantsuit]

It's not just a rat it's a King Rat.

[chattypuns]

What's so royal about a rat?

[dorkypantsuit]

That's it's species.

[He clarifies with a laugh.]

It's a person sized rodent with about 6 heads.

[chattypuns]

And we're throwing it a party?? [That sounds terrifying, honestly. And he's seen some weird things before.]

[dorkypantsuit]

Favoritism at its best.

If you want to know why none of the other menagerie animals get party's you'll have to ask Ginko.

[chattypuns]

I think I'm okay not knowing.

whoops it's a threadjack

[dontpokethat]

[Too bad, Adrien.] Okay, first of all, the party wasn't even my idea, and second of all, Rex is the only one whose birthday we have any way of knowing.

Welcome to the labor department, by the way.

good

[dorkypantsuit]

But did you even try asking Slenderman his birthday?

[dontpokethat]

Slenderman doesn't talk.

[dorkypantsuit]

Maybe not to you.

[chattypuns]

Thank you? [He thinks, at least. He's not so sure about the labor department now...]

Do I want to know what a "Slenderman" is?

[dontpokethat]

Maybe not, but you'll probably see him at some point anyway. Looks like a really tall person in a suit, with no face, though you aren't supposed to look at him for too long, anyway... sometimes he teleports out of his enclosure, which is pretty inconvenient.
