5th Invasion

[moemoetentacles]

[Hey look, a certain denizen of the ocean finally figured out how to use the telephone after almost an entire month of living in Mayfield!  Squid Girl's voice comes ringing over the lines loud and clear, and also completely unfiltered.  Hey, let's not ask for miracles, okay?  It's amazing she even made it this far on her own.  Anyway, she's excited as heck, and about to make a huge announcement.]

"Attention, people of Mayfield!  This is Squid Girl speaking!  I am pleased to announce that I have just formed an unofficial alliance with the nation of Taiwan - it's called the Squid Girl-Taiwanese Unofficial Alliance!  I've also been informed that there's no ocean here to pollute, so I've decided to protect whatever water there is in Mayfield, starting with that pond in the park!  If you pollute it, you'll have to answer to both me and my new ally!  And if anyone messes with one of us, you'll now have to fight us both!  So do the smart thing and give up now - there's no way you'll be able to resist our combined powers!"

[At this point, there's a few seconds of silence.  She's trying to think of something cool to say to wrap this thing up.]

"...That is all!"

[Totally nailed it.]

It's not a conventional name by human standards, indeed.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

That's what people keep telling me.

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

...How much of you is squid? If you do not mind me asking.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I have tentacles and can spit ink out of my mouth.

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

How interesting.

I do hope you follow a more peaceful alternative to your campaign than this, however. If you require assistance, I would be happy to help.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

You'll really help? What's your name?

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

Professor Hershel Layton. It is a pleasure to meet you.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Nice to meet you!

Now, the first order of business in order to promote environmental awareness is to produce posters of some sort.

"I was thinking of doing that with Taiwan!"

[She actually totally wasn't, but since it's been brought up, and since it's what she ends up doing later anyway, she might as well claim that it was her idea right here.]

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

Well, that is certainly a good start.

It would also be wise to have checks on the pond everyday to make sure it is healthy.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Yeah, we were talking about doing patrols and stuff too.

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

And perhaps someone could go door to door to help spread the message?

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

That's a good idea too! Maybe we'll try that!

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

I'll be happy to aid you, if you wish.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Yeah! We'll knock on every door in town!

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

It would only require some information on ponds...

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Information? Can't we just tell people not to dump trash in it?

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

People always ask for reasons why they shouldn't be doing things. Obviously, the main reason is the wildlife.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Right! There's ducks and fish and stuff that live there!

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

And the plants as well.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

Yeah, like algae and stuff. The fish eat that!

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

There is certainly enough evidence to persuade most people in this town.

If you and your friend would be so kind, I'm sure we can work together to achieve our goal.

[moemoetentacles.livejournal.com]

I'll ask her about it! I bet she'll like the idea.

[teawithpuzzles.livejournal.com]

I'm sure she will. Contact me when you wish to start our planning, if you wish.
