[The feed opens up with... a far-too-close zoom-in on Enna's eye. But then once she's satisfied it's on, she leans back, and nods to herself.]

Hello! So, Vee did that game where everyone got to ask it three questions. And I thought it seemed kinda fun. It would be a fun way to get to know everyone here. So I think it should be a game for everyone to play.

If you can do this.... Caw, ICP? Thingy. And talk to people. Let people ask you three questions and use it to get to know people! And even if you're the kind of person who doesn't care about getting to know people, it's still worth trying, because if we're all on teams and going on missions together, the more we know about each other, the better we can work together. Tactics, battle strategy, abilities, knowledge, strengths and weaknesses... And things like personality, history, all of that. The more we know about each other, the better we'll be.

Ready? I'll start!

Would you tell us about your children?

[They are certainly important to her, and he is curious.]

[sos_pilot]

They're triplet boys and ten years old! Huey's got an amazing memory, Dewey's the best dancer, and Louie's so clever it's scary!

[namethattune]

They sound like quite the handful.

[The way he says it, it sounds like a compliment.]

[sos_pilot]

[ And Della takes it as one! ]

They are! They are such wonderful little troublemakers. Some days I can barely keep up with them!

[namethattune]

What is the most trouble they have ever gotten into?

[She must have stories.]

[sos_pilot]

Hmmm... Depends on what you mean. The good kind of trouble where we all laughed and smiled at the end, or the actual bad kind where I nearly had a heart attack because of what they did?

[namethattune]

Whichever you would prefer, or both.

[sos_pilot]

All right, I'll start with the heart attack one.

Louie's always been... a bad mix of greedy and lazy. He wants to be a millionaire like our uncle, but doesn't want to do the hard work necessary for it. So he thought he'd take the easy way out big time. He "borrowed" an invention from Uncle Scrooge's top scientist - a time machine in a tub. And he used it to go back and forth through time to bring back treasure before it was found in history.

But, well, time isn't supposed to be messed with like that. He accidentally wound up creating a time typhoon... a time-phoon... that launched dangerous people and forces from the past to our time, while also sending me and the rest of the family back in various periods of time.

Not a fun day.

['Time machine in a tub' gets an immediate double-take, and he spends the rest of the story slightly agog. How does Della's dimension function-]

[But the questions he would have are likely not ones Della would be able to answer (or even interested in answering, more likely), and they are beside the subject at hand.]

How on Earth did you resolve that?

[sos_pilot]

[ Let's face it, Della's dimension barely functions as is. ]

The only way to fix it was to put everything back where it belong - both the treasures he took, and the various ninjas, cowboys, pirates, freedom fighters, and so on from other times. It was close, but we made it before all of time collapsed.

Then I had to do one of the most difficult things I'd ever done in my whole life...

... I had to punish Louie.

[namethattune]

[He's starting to pick up on that.]

I would imagine that to be a normal part of parenting.

[It's not phrased like a question, but it may as well be one.]

[sos_pilot]

I know, but... it was my first time doing it. And I'll probably have to do it again. I guess I was so looking forward to all the fun times, I never thought about the inevitable bad ones.
