Niffty popped into existence like a glitch in reality, as if sheād taken a wrong turn through Hellās basement and wound up plopped onto this unfamiliar sidewalk with a plop! of mop water. Clutching her mop and bucket like prized possessions, she blinked up at the world around her, her eye darting with jittery curiosity.
The surroundings were weirdābut not too weirdāand that made it even weirder. She shuffled forward, then paused, locking onto a figure ahead with intense focus.
"Whoaaa, hey there!" she chirped, voice bubbling with a cocktail of glee and surprise. "You look super familiar! Waitādid I clean your ribcage once? No, wait⦠that was someone else. With horns. Or was it antlers? Huh! Anyway!"
She giggled, her mop now held up like a clunky, makeshift scepter as she peered at Joyer with unabashed interest.
"Iām Niffty!" she beamed, bouncing on her toes. "And youāre lookinā real⦠mysterious stranger energy if you ask me!"
She leaned in, close enough to almost boop him with her mop handle. "So whatcha up to? Just chillinā? I mean, I donāt wanna bug ya unless you wanna be buggedāwhich, by the way, Iām really good at! Bugging and unbugging! I clean bugs!" A pause. Then a shrug. "Well. Sometimes."
Joyer stares down at the tiny canon character with interest.
Huh, not every day Iām approached by someone whoās actually part of the main timeline. Ah well, at least I got something to do before Joy Itself decides to not use my blog for the next three months.
And yeah, Iām chilling. Planning world domination. The usual. -š
