Happy Holidays, mansion folk.

In addition to being unable to move right now thanks to copious amounts of food (don't worry, Matt, I'm totally prepped for Midnight Mass, I've got like two hours until I have to be mobile), I felt the need to share with you all the fact that I woke up this morning with tickets for a tour of the Hadron Collider taped to my forehead. I know who you are, sneaky person who also taped a note to my face, and I wanted to say thank you because this is epic.

Also, Darcy, why are Doc Foster and I tied? I am totally better at feeding myself without being reminded that she is!

Hope all of you are having a great time, too.

I've got like four tickets, you can totally come with if you wanna.

For reals? Totally reals? Absolutely seriously reals?

Absolutely for seriously for reals yes.

OMG You're awesome! Eeeee!

I'd fist bump you, but I'm definitely in the lab at the moment. But I'm fist bumping you is spirit.

ORLY? Whatcha workin on? Need a hand?

Kind of working on a chemical analysis thing at the moment, so not sure it's your kinda science, but you're totally welcome to come down and peer at these slides with me, if you want.

Yeeeeah, that sounds fun but you're right, I like analyzing techy stuff. I'm gonna go work on my bike. I'm almost done, I think!

Sweet! Let me know how those thrusters work out.

Oh, tangentially related to the thing I'm working on, are you familiar with miniaturizing, like, spring-loaded things? I've got a thing I'm thinking of, and normally I'd handle it myself, but I've got this chemical thing I'm doing.

Totally! I FINALLY managed to figure out what was up with the thermocouple so now it should be easier for it to run longer without kicking off and crashing to the ground.

Not really but I do love a challenge! I could take a look at it?

I can't wait to see it in non-crashing action.

I've got a thing you can use kind of as a blueprint. But also, how do you feel about aerosol cans?

I'm SO ready to fly it. We used these speeder things back in Asgard to chase after Trolls and it was awesome. Mine isn't gonna be as pretty but it'll be a start!

Um...Good? Why? Is there a supervillain called Spray Can Man that I don't know about or something?

Definitely looking forward to seeing it in action. You'll have to let me try it out some time.

I mean, do you think you can do a miniaturized pressure-release thingie spring-loaded what'sit and also an aerosolized thing? Possibly in the same unit?

Totally, once I get all the kinks worked out. If it crashes, I'm unsquishable so making a crater wouldn't be as bad.

Dunno, maybe? I'm kinda the 'play with it until it works' kinda girl. That okay? We on a deadline here?

Awesome. Totally looking forward to it.

Nah, no deadline. And you're more than welcome to come hang out in the lab down here with me while you're working on it. Like I said, I've got some stuff sorted out already, if you wanna take a look at it. And we can go over more specifics.

Sweet :-D

Sure, why not? I'll see what I can do! I'm always up for working on my skills.

You wanting to shoot arrows out of your wrists or something? Kinda like Buffy with stakes?

Something like that. I'll definitely fill you in once you're down here.

Roger that, boss.
