Cole
gets shot. Quint has to help with first aid since she can't go to a hospital. (note: This is actually played out on the tenth and further, but I'm fudging the time a bit so we can say the files were tested on Time and Oil. Blame it on the Nexus. ;) )
December 2
Someone in the Nexus talks about
misconceptions. Ballade is more interested in their wings.
Adapting some of the Beast Wars tech for use in Robot Master systems is finished, and Quint
waits in one of his hiding places to give the appropriate files to Enker. Some of the data would be tested using Time and Oil, and eventually be used for Zero.
December 4
Quint chats with
MST3K's Crow.
December 5
Quint sees a
ghost!Robin in the Nexus and tries to help, but that Robin is
too scared of that world's Raven and flees. (Some time muddle here, so I put it under the date of the earlier of the two posts)
December 6
A
RockOpera!Blues oneshot is a little disturbing for both Blues and Proto.
Timeman is activated and makes his
first appearance in the Nexus.
Plant is
still embarrassed by how she acted while drunk, and would still like to learn to knit.
And Snake thinks a baby
Midgar Zolom is adorable.
December 7
Crystal asks a
question in the Hub. So does Elec, though his is about Roll's
recent behavior.

Elec's Journal))
December 8
Another Nexus visit from
Chibiverse!Blues.

Timeman finds out why he's the
odd one out among a group of industrial designs. And doesn't like the news at all.

Forte's Journal))
December 11
Nexus Events and talking to her younger brothers has
Roll confused. She tries to sort out what to do, the situation made even more confusing when Time considers trying to
solve things by wiping them all out of existance. After a
journal update she ends up having a
talk with Dr. Light about the whole mess ((Last post is both misdated (like a lot of early journal entries -_-; ) and unfinished))
((Update to
Quint's Journal December 12
Forte meets Timeman and an alternate of Mega. And
is a jerk to both, no surprise. Elec's not amused by anyone picking on Time, and Quint finds himself unable to behave around an alt of Mega.
Forte gets a bit of karmic
payback when he returns to the Castle, courtesy of Crash and Quick. Both Quick and Crash are sent back to the Gallery over the resulting mess. (Note: This is the 'Tapioca Incident' and was never played out due to the loss of our original player for Crash. The current mun has no clue exactly what was planned for that ton of tapioca, other than it involved Forte, so it seems this will never clearly be known now.)
Blues gets a message from Proto about Quint (see his journal entry) and
replies to it.

Elec finds out
why in some universes the Alphas are still with the Lights... and decides those universes can keep it. A few others talk to the latest Rock alt as well.

December 14
Roll talks to Pitch about
cooking.
Is hell
endothermic or exothermic. Who knows...
December 15
Roll decides some distance might help her sort out what to do, and
moves out for a while. She ends up staying in
another universe and teaching Pitch how to cook.
Blues spots
Proto in the Nexus and stops to chat.
There's an
odd question from Patience in the Hub.
((Update to
Quint's Journal))
December 16
Rock starts
checking the Nexus for any clues as to where Roll went.

December 17
Pitch
makes pancakes while Roll talks to that universe's Mega.
Rock and Blues both answer a
question.
Blues thinks a good holiday gift for Proto is to make sure the kid has
backup the next time he gets into a mess.
An X asks a
semi-nonsensical question, and gets an equally odd answer from Ballade.

Blues' Journal,

December 18
The younger alt of
Kalinka is in the Nexus again.
Punk talks to
Vile.
Elec talks to
Cartoonverse!Mega.
Rock talks to
Cartoon!Mega. It doesn't go well.
While he's gone,
Patience shows up at the Light Residence in Neo Tokyo to ask Dr. Light some questions.
Ballade encounters
Santa Claus, which in turn
prompts him to ask a
couple questions in the Nexus as he searches for fun things to do with coal.
And Quint gives a
predictable answer to a question from an alternate of X.
((Update to
Quint's Journal))
December 20
The younger Kalinka is in the Nexus again, asking about
presents. Plant, Roll, Ballade, and Quint all talk to her.
Ballade, meanwhile, is very happy about the idea of
getting coal for the holidays.

Ballade's Journal,

December 21
Quint meets and talks to a
Dr. Cain. He finds out about the virus, and is given some files about it. (There's also some annoyance from a Dr. Light here. I'd wonder how the hell would he even know about Zero to butt in like that, but - It's an Asshat!Blues pup, so of course they're metagaming out their ass. 9.9 )
Shadow meets a Boomer Kuwanger on the latter's
first trip into the Nexus. He's only wandering through the Nexus to
find Forte, who'd been AWOL and had his comm off when Wily had wanted him to go on a
raid.
As it turned out,
Forte, as well as Plant, Snake, Ballade, and Quint, were at a
Winter Solstice party. Ballade managed to remain undiscovered, but Plant and Snake had to escort Forte and Patience to Skull Castle in time for Zero to be
activated. Zero was them ordered to destroy Forte, but Forte, Gospel, and Patience all managed to
escape.
Plant and Snake were also punished for attending the party, though they hadn't actually disobeyed to do so.
Elec talks to
Cartoon!Mega again, and finds out he's been talking to Rock - very ineffectively.
There's a very creepy
Mary Sue in the Nexus. Ballade remains oblivious to the creature's nature, while Blues thinks it might be evidence that hell has frozen over when the twisted one-shot wanders off with Perv!Sigma.
Ballade is also easily confused by
Scrooged characters, but at least he got a book out of it.

December 22
Ballade finds a random
lost sock in the Nexus.
Forte and Gospel end up
deactivated in the Nexus. Ballade pokes him with a stick until Quint arrives and takes him to Waspinator's to be put in the
CR there.
Meanwhile, Zero is in the Nexus, asking about
kinds of shampoo. He meets Boomer Kuwanger, and is accosted by a pervert alternate of Sigma.

Punk's Journal,

December 23
Ballade spots
Tinkerbell in the Nexus, who, being sparkly, gets his attention easily.
Forte heads to the
Hub, meets up with Patience, and they end up going to
Shido's. Forte will end up living in the basement there for a while.
He falls asleep again there, having a few program errors as he recovers from breaking First Law. Blues drops by to chat about that.
Zero's in the Nexus again, confused because Pervert!Sigma called him a
'reploid', a term that doesn't exist at that point in WW!History. He meets an Axl and hears some more things about possible futures that he doesn't like the sound of very much.
As a result, he starts asking anyone who seems to know something about the
Maverick Hunters, as he can't understand why he'd be one in the future.
Punk responds to an odd question about what effect the Nexus No Violence Field would have on a
mosh pit.
((Update to
Ballade's Journal))
December 24
Roll sees a
very strange version of Dr. Light in the Nexus.
Having heard so far that his future selves have lost their memories, that none of the Robot Masters have survived, and that future Zeros work for the government and are friends with a Lightbot, Zero sees
absolutely nothing about the future that he'd like to have happen. And so, he decides he won't let it. He also meets a Dynamo, and promptly asks him what shampoo he uses. He also sees a large dog named
Mouse, and has some
cookies.
Snake asks about
pet names.
The Nexus continues to have the occasional
wierd question.

Quint mentions having
three more siblings as the best present of the year.
When Zero finds out that
snowballs are not stopped by the No Violence Field, Elec starts a
snowball fight in the Nexus.
There's some
trading of presents before Roll goes to try to spend some time in the Nexus. She gets involved in the snowball fight, and spends some time
talking to the younger Kalinka.
Ballade is very happy to have gotten a whole
quarter ton of coal.
Zero finds
Boomer Kuwanger to give him a present. He also keeps
eating food handed out by people in the Nexus, and yet - amazingly - hasn't been LOLed yet..

Runaways!Wind
shows up in the Nexus, with a 'present' for Runaways!Air that turns out to be what's left of that universe's Elec in a shoebox. He attracts the usual lynch mob, but all they manage to do is cover him in tar and holiday ornaments.
Blues takes Quint and Leader-1 on a little trip to the ruins of the
third Skull Castle... where they find a not-quite-finished Wilybot hidden away.

Nexus.
Blues talks to Proto about

Pitch gets
armor, prompting comments from both Elec and Roll. Elec particularly is not happy about this.
December 30
Quint gives a very
predictable answer to a random nexus question.
And Zero meets
another Axl.

Roll's Journal, Elec's Journal))
December 31
Quint tries to ask a
technical question in the Nexus, but doesn't get much help. (There's some wank here from an anonymouse. The post is about average for good Nexus posts, and I've seen lots longer, but once it was behind a cut there were almost no replies.) He asks in
the Hub as well, and tells Cole what he knows about what's going to happen before they
go home. (The last post is off-date due to THNMY)
And Zero meets a
Dr. Doppler.
((Update to
Blues' Journal))
(There's also an OOC post from Zero on
Dear Mun.)
