1303: The Morning of Many Alters (12/6): Once again, while most Risen were asleep or unknowing, many Alters were performed on Harmonia, Cole, and Spider. And now back to Luna. The morning started alright. Dolos came by and gave us various highly dangerous weapons that we'll probably never use. And then Spider appeared to be drunk off her ass. She was also scared of me for some reason and planned to attack. I shouted at her to try and release her from Terminal's grip but instead she disappeared. Harmonia felt like a child again, she wanted to be held and to hold plushies. She also wanted her mom and dad, something that I was able to relate to. I got her calmed down, but then Cole and Harmonia went back to the bunker for some reason. All three returned shortly after. Harmonia was unable to meet my eyes and was focused on decorating for Christmas. Cole drew me a picture of someone who looked similar to Terminal but they had bony looking wings. We learned that he has this ability but past looks, we don't know anything else about it. 1304: Holding Hands at Applebees (12/6): Harmonia shared some screenshots of her conversations with NolanHaunted. They were harmless for the most part, but at one point, Nolan asked to hold hands at the Applebees. We joked around saying it was the one in Onalaska, WI with the severed head in the toilet. Afterwards, they went into DMs and it was about the same as before. Random banter and weird images. 1305: Rose's Fighting Stance (12/6): Harmonia, Cole, and Spider went back to Drake's house for some reason. And for some other reason, Sugar Lance was summoned? We quickly dispelled her and Drake was back to normal, though slightly aggressive with a slap directly across Harmonia's face. Then they sparred inside of Drake's house. Harmonia wasn't too bad. Harmonia asked Drake to try and hurt her which triggered Drake. And then Rose's old fighting stance came back. One hand behind the back, a look of pure concentration on her face. Shockingly, she was really really good at fighting Drake off, keeping up with moves and dishing back as much damage as Drake caused. Unfortunately for them, Happy Meal was still servantized and joined the brawl to protect Drake. He had a knife and was ready to attack at will. Spider disarmed HMF (Happy meal friend) but even that wasn't enough. As Drake was still mid-stance, even she was ready to fight back. Spider, Cole, and Harmonia fought the duo with all of their power. HMF was easily knocked down with a punch to the temple, but Drake was relentless, biting into Harmonia's shoulder. Quickly, she found a video on youtube of someone saying "good girl" over and over. This was enough to distract Drake and release from her shoulders. Even this wasn't enough to finish the battle. They tried showing Drake a gif of green, but that wasn't enough. Thinking quickly, Spider grabbed a blanket and put it over Drake's eyes, getting her to defocus from fighting. And this. This was enough to end the fight. Cole healed Harmonia and they returned home. On twitter, this image was linked to us alongside a link to Hurt by Oliver Tree. 1306: Terminal's Loon Episode (12/6) Terminal appeared in Harmonia's living room randomly and chased after Cole, who seemed to be dying from a low battery. He wanted to be there for him. Thankfully Cole didn't die, and he swapped intentions with just staring at him. And he did just that until others tried to pry him away. He stared kinda creepily at Harmonia. And then he went to me. I allowed him to look cuz he wasn't doing anything bad. That is until he tried to pull my cat ears off. They're very sensitive so it really hurts. After some time passed, another staple to Harmonia's ever-growing house appeared. Oh and a chill with Mirror Man by Jack Stauber was there too. 1307: (DLH) Dolos is Normal? (12/7): Dolos returned and Terminal swapped his focus from my cute blue eyes to Dolos's uhhhhh… very looks. He allowed Terminal to stare and enjoy his somewhat human looks fully. Dolos wanted to give Harmonia a gift, but because we didn't know where she was, we couldn't allow him..After some vague threats mostly about Harmonia, Dolos left. And the curtain closed. 1308: Mocha (12/7): The curtain opened to Dolos harassing us once more with the promise of gifts and even more vague threats about trauma and torment, once again, mostly targeting Harmonia and Chris. After he left, Spider had shifted into her wolf form to comfort Harmonia. Terminal appeared and apologized profusely for his actions the previous night after Chris explained what happened: Terminal noticed Spider was in her feral wolf form and began petting her and calling her Mocha. He continued petting her and petting her… and petting her. Even continuing to do so while Spider fell asleep. When Spider noticed he wasn't stopped, she shifted back to her human and growled at him to stop. He stopped quickly only to swap to a loon episode and stared into her eyes. She punched him in the face to stop. After Terminal apologized and explained more about his loonism, and how the cloak he normally wears helps mask human faces and denies his loon episodes, Spider shifted back and allowed Terminal to continue petting her. He had a very childish grin on his face during all of this and small giggles could be heard from him. After hours of non-stop petting, Terminal's hands started to become sore and almost bloody. Spider realized this, shifted back to her human form, and applied first aid to his hands. Afterwards, he returned back to his World. 1309: Updating Pie on Drake (12/7): The majority of the day was quiet. Around early evening, Pie contacted us asking for updates on Drake after having a nightmare. We told him about how she's got her own house and it's owned by someone she accidentally servantized. Pie was reasonably concerned and told us about his nightmare. "Saw some room with a guy I didn't know standing in it. The lights went out then back on, Drake was on the ground not moving and the person was smiling. I woke up after that." He described the person as some dog non-feral with an unknown hybrid 2. It's Happy Meal Friend. Pie requested that Drake stay away from the servant, but we explained that HMF was Hallowed, basically an ultra obedient servant and attack dog. If Drake needed a place to stay, he could stay at Harmonia's. 1310: Therapy Woes (12/7): Matilda, one of Chris's "emotional council" members took over and requested a straitjacket so that she and Cole could have a talk. This freaked out Terminal and I led him into the kitchen to keep him away. We talked about therapy and Terminal believed it was more akin to torture. I tried to explain otherwise but he wouldn't budge from this mindset. In his words: "they dig into every little thing about you to learn how you tick to use it against you to learn more and more and more and more." Sounds more like mental torture than therapy. Regardless, he wasn't ready to change by my words alone, so we waited for Chris to be finished. 1311: Happy Meal Comes Over (12/7): Later on, Harmonia tweeted out that she wanted to deck NolanHaunted. And then a few minutes later, Happy Meal Friend found his way to her house and stared at her with deadpan eyes and blood dripping from his mouth. NolanHaunted was therefore confirmed to be HMF (and will be called Nolan from here on out). Terminal entered the living room and was startled seeing Nolan there. He offered to Alter the rest of the proxy off of him for us. We accepted and they both disappeared. 1313: Get Well Soon (12/7): The main account sent a forced message through the system wishing Nolan to get well soon. Athan's account, from Relived Eternally, did the same thing, except encoded in Mexican Army Wheel Cipher (with the disks set at 05, 30, 53, 90). 3657247534411682194418 becomes GETWELLSOON. Crossworld shenanigans are slowly returning to focus. Oh and there was a link to We Don't Talk About Bruno from Encanto alongside "Don't tell her" 1314: The Christmas Tree (12/8): The morning utterly sucked. We got attacked by Dolos for seemingly no reason other than to cause chaos and stress to us. He did leave us a rather beautiful Christmas tree on the bright side, even if the promise of Christmas Day chaos is in the midst. Terminal arrived at the house shortly after Dolos left us. His eyes lit up at the display and was very content to just look at it. It truly was a nicely decorated tree. Terminal told us the Alter to remove Nolan's servantization was a success, though that was only because Drake had initiated the process previously. 1315: Connection Failure (12/8): I tried to connect to Ace because that's who I believed NolanHaunted truly was, but was met with an unknown error. Troubleshooting said error only caused another unknown error to take its place. I tried connecting to Nolan using DATRRS as well, but he wasn't responding, but it did connect. 1316: Spider's Intervention (12/8): For the majority of the day, Spider and Terminal had a bit of a spat in the living room. It led to us giving Spider an intervention and reminding her that she's important to us all. Unfortunately, Terminal didn't react so well to everything, so to stop her from lying to us anymore, he performed an Alter where everyone is unable to lie at the same time, not even to themselves. We all suffered greatly, even revealing a lot of secrets accidentally. After some time, the Alter wore off and our emotions recovered.
