#You sound like a villain.*cough*Notmuchdiffrentfromreality*cough*#
*gasp*
*also gasps* DrAmA~
But anyway, here’s the LMWAY!
>*is sorting through papers quickly* Uh, Writing??<
Yeah?
>No one answered.<
… Oh. Well, that’s fine, it was our first time in December. Let’s try it again. But a different question!
[Note; The question last time, for anyone who’s curious, was “What do you want us to bring back from the Floof MCUs (that we haven't already)?”]
#This month’s question is… *drumroll on random desk* What is your favorite prank to play on your family or friends?#
[Remember that out next MCU is for April :D]
>*sighs* I tried to say this shouldn’t be the LMWAY. I’m scared of arming both Tempest and the CAPTCHAs with prank ideas. Not to mention even more chaotic AEs.<
#Darn right you should be scared! I’m already making a list!# *metoo*
… For your own safety, please don’t ask what Tempest and General Gumdrops mean by “list”.
Now, ‘tis time for the Location of the Month!
In third place, from Emekittycon Kitten, we’ve got IN HEART-SHAPED CHOCOLATES! Creative, but yet, it poses a question. How tHE HECK DID WE GET IN THERE??? #Well, I mean I could TECHNICALLY do that but-# But not most people! Still, great entry!
Second place, curtsy of Wren, we’ve got WAITING FOR THE DAFFODILS! Because up here in New York I’m completely sick of snow! It SUCKS and I will GLADLY join you in waiting for daffodils!
And in first place…
IN A WARM EMBRACE! Amazing, Tsuki! Foreshadows both spring warmth and Valentine's hugs! *virtual hug in the general direction of the CB, unless you’re not a hugger, than it’s a lollipop*
>*is suddenly hit in the face with a lollipop* AUGH-< #*bursts out laughing* Guess you’re not a hugger??# >I suppose… *rubs where the lollipop hit with hand* *pops lollipop in mouth*<
Next, we’ve got quotes, this time with Alizabella!
First, the inspirational quote, “Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.” - William James. A funny CB quote, “Yeah, well, Bruno doesn’t talk about you either,” - MoonKitten. Because Encanto is amazing. And, lastly, a quote from a book, “I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore. And by that, I mean we’re actually in Kansas.” - Conner Bailey, The Land Of Stories: Beyond The Kingdoms.
#One of my favorite Land Of Stories quotes.#
YOU picked it.
#Exactly.#
*grumbles*
*sighs* Can you guys PLEASE work together for just a BIT LONGER? We’re almost done, just gotta do

#and a wonderful section we’re re-adding because we can never have too much humor…#
#April jokes!#
But before we sign off…
Please know that we’re always accepting ideas for future LMWAYs, sections, or anything else. Making an MCU is harder than it seems, even if it is only every other month.
Yes, new ideas or advice for making this even more AWESOME is always helpful! We love constructive criticism here!
#But not DEstructive criticism. That sucks.#
… What’s destructive criticism?
#The opposite of constructive criticism.#
… Okay.
Anyway, thank you all for reading this! I’m afraid we have to have an abrupt stop here, because I’m already late for school… Luckily I’m homeschooled so it’s not a big deal, but STILL. Um…
