[video] Astral Pumpkin
Okay okay okay okay. So I know there's an event coming up and we're all freaking out about it, and it's probably gonna be horrible like usual, but I gotta say this before we get too deep into October. So, you know how Halloween is the best holiday, and October is the best month, and autumn is the best season, and all that? And you know how the best thing about all of those is...
[Dramatic pause.]
Pumpkins, obviously. I was thinking, we definitely need to have a pumpkin chunking competition.
[She grins like a wild person.]
So for the uninitiated, pumpkin chunking is when you build something that can launch things--like a catapult, or a trebuchet, or a giant slingshot, or a cannon, and so on--and then you compete to see how far the thing you built can launch a pumpkin. It's literally the best thing, after Halloween and autumn leaves. Since I figure most people don't really know how to build stuff like that, people could team up. You could have team names and give your pumpkin chunker a name like they do with monster trunks. I mean trucks. The only rules is you can't use anything gas powered--it has to all be mechanical. And you also can't, like, murder people with pumpkins.
And knowing Wonderland, there's probably gonna be some crazy ass shit happening for Halloween, but I figure we can pick a day near then and that's when we have the competition. We can roll out our stuff to the checkerboard hills and launch from there, that way we got wide open space and people won't get hit by flying pumpkins.
[She gives the camera a really eager look.]
Whaddaya guys think?

It seems that you have come up with a very fun... [Toriel stops for a moment. 'Event' is the first word that comes to mind for what this is, but given it's connotation here in Wonderland, she doesn't really wanna use it.] thing for people to do! And have given adequate thought to the safety and well-being of all attendees, as well.

[Adults always have certain Opinions about her. Especially mom-types.]
Right? That's the idea. Take people's mind of things if a Wonderland event actually does happen.
