Hey everyone, I have a purely hypothetical question for all of you. What would you do if you accidentally, through absolutely no fault of your own, you did something really bad? Wait, no, not did something bad, just caused something bad. Say you, oh, I don’ t know, accidentally doomed a City or something. What would you do? Try to fix it? Find a

HI ANGELICA! HOW ARE YOU DOING!

[Oh that is so strange why did Calvin's voice just jump several octaves]

[microwavemutant]

Calvin. What did you do?

[more_surreal]

I didn't do anything! Honest!

There's just a whole bunch of stuff happening because of me, that's all...

[microwavemutant]

What are you talking about? Tell me right now.

[more_surreal]

Okay, well, you see, it's like this... All the boxes and monsters and dinosaurs are things from my own universe. I think I must have brought them here somehow!

[microwavemutant]

How?! How could you bring those things with you all of a sudden just now?!

[more_surreal]

I think that babysitter you hired has some kind of weird power that makes things come true. He was telling me all kinds of stories on Thursday night, and they included all the stuff that's been happening!

[microwavemutant]

That guy with the nose?

[Angie looks both angry and slightly disturbed.]

So this is Usopp's fault?!

[Temperature rising.......]

[more_surreal]

Yes! The nose! The nose! He did it!

[Calvin hesitates and fidgets. It would be so easy right now to blame everything on Usopp and let him take the fall for it all while Calvin got off scot-free. But... he was a good babysitter and a good storyteller and Calvin does have some limits, so...]

...Well, I don't think he meant to do it though. It's, um, the kind of power you have trouble controlling, I think.

[microwavemutant]

So it was an accident...

[She frowns, but nods. She's been in that situation, having everything melting around her and being unable to stop it.]

Has he tried to make it stop?

[more_surreal]

He's gonna! I'm making him try right now. Don't worry Angelica, I'll have this all sorted out by tomorrow!

[microwavemutant]

And we're sure that won't make it worse?

ITT: FATE IS TEMPTED

[more_surreal]

Completely! A story made them show up, so a story should make them go away. It can't fail!

OH GAWD NO D:

[microwavemutant]

Well, no, see. It can fail. It can totally fail.

This seems like a really bad idea, Calvin.
