8th Invasion

Hey!  What was that weird music just now all about?  Is that part of Christmas?  Does it mean I'm getting more presents like that teleporter machine Santa gave me last week?

That's not--

... teleporter machine?

[moemoetentacles]

I haven't figured out how it works yet, though. It didn't come with instructions.

[hwamei]

Did you try looking for a switch? [ wait why is she even asking that ] Are you absolutely sure it's what you say it is?

[moemoetentacles]

"Santa said I had to wait to open it until I got home or it might not be in the box he gave me anymore. So that means it had to either be alive, or a teleporting device, because how else would it get out of the box on its own?"

[Logic - she has it.]

[olympicswimmer]

You got a teleporter?

[moemoetentacles]

I think so. But I don't know how it works.

[olympicswimmer]

Woah -- woah! So it could get us out of here!

[moemoetentacles]

It does stuff when I shake it, but it hasn't teleported me anywhere yet.

[getsciencedone]

You received a teleporter machine?

[moemoetentacles]

It's either that or a snowglobe.

[getsciencedone]

.....

You can't tell the difference?

[moemoetentacles]

Taiwan said it was a snowglobe, but Santa told me when he gave it to me that if I didn't wait until I got home to open it, it wouldn't be in the box anymore when I looked. So I figured it had to either be something alive so it could get out on its own, or a teleporter machine because then it could teleport out!

[has_a_name]

... you have a teleportation device...?

[moemoetentacles]

It actually probably isn't.

[has_a_name]

... oh...

... what is it...?

[moemoetentacles]

A snowglobe.

[dodo_master]

He gave you a teleporting machine?! [Damn, he's jealous.]

[moemoetentacles]

Um, yeah, false alarm.

[dodo_master]

What, really? Does it not work?

[moemoetentacles]

You could say that.
