Hank was out for a stroll to get some fresh air. He'd been cooped up long enough, and after getting a good night's sleep and a long, hot bath, it was just what the doctor ordered. It fact, he prescribed it himself.

Passing under a tree, he saw a curious bit of mistletoe hanging from one of its branches.

"Now how did that get there, I wonder?

Meanwhile, the puppy and her lobster guardian were bounding through the park. Or rather, Bingo was bounding and Zoidberg was scuttling along behind her, trying to keep up.

"Wait! Friend Bingo! You're too swift for old Zoidberg!" He whoops softly, legs moving rapidly to keep up with the energetic pup. Luckily, she soon came to a stop, having found someone interesting to smell. Indeed, she'd happened upon a certain blue furry mutant and decided he needed investigating. She approached Hank boldly, with her master close behind. "Bingo! You should always ask permission first! That way he won't strike you for being rude."

Not knowing entirely why, Hank suddenly went starry-eyed and scooped up the puppy, embracing it lovingly! :O cats and dogs, living together!

"Oh, you're an absolute sweetheart!" he said, when suddenly his eye caught Zoidberg.

Zoidberg couldn't help but feel his hearts swell too. Imagine, his little Bingo, so popular and making friends! It was enough to make him want to vomit from both his saltwater and freshwater stomachs. So cuuuuuuute!

"His name is Bingo! He's my loyal hound! What a good friend he is!" Zoidberg announced proudly. Oh yes, he'd done such a fine job raising his puppy, despite that fact that he didn't know its gender. "Bingo, say hello to the nice man!"

[ In the crisp winter afternoon, Arcade is stretching his legs away from the cramped, albeit rather cozy, halls of the MAC. All bundled up (the City's climate doesn't really correlate to the constant near-110 degree weather he's used to), he's regarding the hanging pieces of mistletoe with some righteous holiday-fueled disgust.

When he sees Zoidberg walking along with the adorable, though kind of pitifully dressed dog, he immediately sidles up beside him taking an equal pace. He can't really help but be inquisitive. After all, he is human. ]

Hey there. Uh. What breed of creature are you?

He's a bulldog!

[Zoidberg looks downright delighted, picking up Bingo to show her off proudly. He could get used to all this positive attention, oh yes he could.]

As for me, I'm a Decapodian.

[ Arcade almost coos as he leans forward and scratches Bingo behind her ears, being careful not to knock the hat off her head. ]

Cute. The dog. I mean. [ He looks sheepish, and continues hurriedly: ] Not to say you're not attractive for a crustacean, I'm sure you're quite popular with others of your... race? Uh. Nice weather today, right?

OOC: OH MY GOD I AM SO SORRY! I decided to be lazy for a day and then I totally forgot about this log. Are you fine with continuing it? Again, sorry!

[He beams! You'll never find a happier looking lobster. It's so nice to be complimented, even if it's not even remotely true. He's not a very attractive Decapodian, after all.]

It's lovely weather! Very Eks-masy weather! Bingo and I were just enjoying a pleasant frolic, why not.

ooc: No worries! I'm more than happy to continue! :D

Seras had decided to walk a beat that night for her shift. After being trapped in that hotel for four days she wanted to be outside as much as possible. Her route took her through the park and she was pleasantly surprised to see Zoidberg there walking...a dog? Well, she had seen stranger things before. Jogging to catch up to the pair she settled into their pace once she was alongside them. "Didn't think I'd see you out here. Got over your fear of Santa?"

"Seras!" Zoidberg clapped his claws excitedly, turning to the puppy, to hold her up for an introduction. "Bingo, this is Seras! She's a close, personal friend! And this is Bingo, my loyal hound!"

He sets the dog back down on the ground, all starry-eyed and warm from his previous mistletoe experiences. "We're still frightened of Santa, but Red Queen says Bingo needs exercise, so here we are! And why not! It's a beautiful day!"

"Hello Bingo," Seras said as she waved at the dog. She would have bent down to pet it, but she still wasn't sure how it might react to her being undead. Not well, she suspected. "It really is a nice evening. Especially after being locked up in that hotel for so long. It's why I asked to patrol tonight. You wouldn't mind if I did a bit of that with you two for a while would you?"

He blinked back a wistful, misty-eyed expression, one which slowly turned into the Decapodian approximation of a smile. "We would be honored to accompany you, wouldn't we!" Bingo seemed more interested in eating some snow. "Come, let us scuttle!"

He is walking through the park. A shortcut. Necessary, because he's cursing against the cold. More like he's yelling at the sky every so often. Typical Drakken, really.

He is very definitely going to notice the red, walking crustacean. He stops, mid-mutter.

"Woah. Well this is new."

"Hello!" Zoidberg said, waving at the stranger. He was meeting so many new people! It was an Eks-mas miracle! Perhaps this Eks-mas of the past wasn't so horrible and frightening after all.

He blinked a few times. Given his experience of alien life, an enthusiastic 'hello' wasn't exactly in the handbook.

"Um...hello?"

Oh yay! This new person wasn't scampering off in fear! Perhaps this was a sign that he and Zoidberg were meant to be the closest of friends!

"You look slightly bluish, friend. Are you perhaps a little cold? Maybe you should do the heat seeking dance, to warm yourself up." Zoidberg demonstrates be squatting and scuttling in a strange pattern. Meanwhile, his puppy barks happily.
