Well. . . I decided I needed another Moderator, and Amanda Kondrael graciously allowed me to steal her away for a time. I want to thank you, Amanda, for all the joy you have brought to the forum, all the while striving in quality and leadership across all postings. I look forward to working with you more closely in the months to come!

Congratulations, Amanda!

I am so happy to see you in green, it will be a pleasure to work with you! Welcome to the Mod team!

*happy gasp* Really? Truly? AMANDA!! *hugs and showers with cupcakes* Now you cannot escape Leah, ever, anywhere, because we are on THE SAME RANK.

This is gonna be fun.

Thanks so much for stepping up to fill Reiyen's spot! *hugs again*

Thank you all! *is now thoroughly hugged and squeezed* XD I hope I shall be able to fulfill your expectations of Manda the Mod.

@Shawn - *holds hands over ears* Inside shrieking volume, please. Don't you worry, we can still take over the world; I haven't truly left the HRM ranks. Down past this coating of green paint is purple, and I can change at will. When the time comes, we shall rise up, and win the Glomp Wars once and for all and Rule. The. WORLD!!!!!!!! *evil laugh* (did I just give our plan away? Ooops. )

@Leah - I didn't know there was a place I could escape from you before. More of now, it's that you can not escape from me. Oh yes, this is going to be fun. Very fun indeed.

*huggles AK* (It's in the Chat Mishaps anywho...)

CONGRATS, Manda! I'm so happy for you, big sister!

Congratulations, Amanda!

@SH - *is huggled again, and glomps back* (oh right, I'd forgotten about that. Maybe we should make new plans, and pretend those are the real ones?)

Thank you, my little sisters!

OH MY GOODNESS OH MY GOODNESS! You are green?!?!?!

Mandy is green!!!! *insertSpazydancehere*

I... hadn't thought about it... like that...

Thank you, Seven, Arwen and Za!

@Leah - Muh ha ha ha!

*cries bitterly and blows nose *

You're no longer one of her purple ducklings, Amanda.

Ahhhhh. * hugs Airi * Don't you worry! Beneath this green paint still lies a purple duckling! And anyway, oughten you be proud that your purple duckling grew up into a green duck? XD

They aren't ducks once they are green. *sniffs * I am proud of you, though, because of course, my duckling was chosen.

Does everyone have ducklings? *looks around for missing duckling or ducklord*

No, absolutely not!!! Only Airi has ducklings, and they are the purple people.

*gets a mental image of a duck covered in green paint*

Horrors!

So ducklings never grow up into ducks around here. Strange.

I guess they only change color....

Nope, they forever remain ducklings.

But different colored ducklings right?

*chuckles * Well, depends. I do still have some green, and even yellow people, who refer to themselves as my Ducklings.

Yes! I knew it! I hope someday I grow up to be a duckling...

*chuckles * You never know...

For lack of a better way to congratulate my dearest Cat when I arrive so late. . . *blows up thread* *tiptoes away*

*Chuckles* Scurries around trying, in vain, to sweep up all the debris.

* the penguins do their best aid Elanor in gluing the thread back together *

Alrighty, who gave her explosives? * catches the naughty Mousie and grins * You realize you'll have to clean this all up now, right?

*struggles against grip and whines* But Elanor (wait, what are we calling her these days?) and Shawn already did! Put me down! It was for your congratulations, wasn't it?

* holds Mousie firmly * No, they said they did so "in vain". Only the person who made the mess can actually clean it up. It was, and I appreciate it... sorta...

*laughs*
