Disney/Kingdom Hearts Loops, Chapter Twenty-One

21.1 (kingofsouls): [Inside Out]

-Reality-

"Riley, this is a bad idea." Fear worriedly pleaded as Riley made her way down the stairs. "Mom will kill us if we go through with this."

"Oh lighten up Fear." scoffed Disgust. "It's just a little practical joke. No big deal."

"Well forgive me for overreacting."

Riley just rolled her eyes, no doubt Disgust's influence bleeding through from Headquarters. "Fear, nothing bad is going to happen. Trust me."

Just before Fear could retort back, Riley had made it to the bottom, jumping of the last step and landing with a thud before darting off to the kitchen where Mom was. "Hey Mom."

"Morning Riley." Mom replied with a smile. "You seem happy this morning. Have a good dream last night?"

"THANK YOU!"

"Shush Joy."

Unawake Joy. She always seemed to be hungry for praise, earned or otherwise. "You could say that." Riley slyly answered as she approached Mom. "Can I ask you a question?"

"Of course you can."

"Here it comes!" Fear moaned.

"Just get the camera ready." Anger growled.

"Do you know anything about Brazilian Helicopter Pilots?"

Mom didn't say anything, but the brief flash of panic was all Riley needed to see.

-Mom's Headquarters-

Mom's Fear spat out her coffee in total shock. "HOW DID RILEY KNOW ABOUT HIM!?" she shrieked.


21.2 (Sonic Raynboom): [Admin Shenanigans]

Janus was hard at work trying to ensure the new Kingdom Hearts expansion would go smoothly when he heard a knock at his door.

Grumbling, Janus opened the door. "What now?"

"I'm your new assistant!"

"What?"

"I'm Turms, the messenger boy... well, I was, then email started up. Now I'm your assistant!" the young boy chirped happily.

"I don't need help." Janus replied curtly.

"Fine, I'll go tell Miss Skuld you said that."

Janus remembered his last encounter with Skuld. "Wait no get back here!"

Turms smirked. "What happened to I don't need help?"

Janus knew when he was beat. "Fine. You can... hmm... you can... aha! I have the perfect Loop for you to run."


21.3 (Evilhumour): [Pirates of the Caribbean]

Jack Sparrow looked at the mutt next to him, scratching under its chin.

"You know dog, you're quite odd," Jack mused to himself, looking at the jail dog as it laid on its side. "No matter where I go, you seem to appear and do just fine."

The dog responded by stretching out its hind leg in bliss.

"I wonder," picking up the dog, the Looping pirate Captain stared into the dog's face. "Are you looping in time with me or some strange loop aware deity that I should really be watching out for?"

The dog responded by licking his face and barking.


21.4 (zeusdemigod131): [Pokémon] / [Percy Jackson]

Misty's pencil clattered to the ground as she woke up, taking in her surroundings she looked around the... classroom?

Misty was used to waking up in Cerulean City, or at least near it, depending on how her relationship with her sisters was that Loop. Occasionally she would wake up somewhere else, Pallet Town whenever she and Ash switched places, Twinleaf whenever she replaced May.

She had never Looped back to trainer school before, and she didn't even recognize this place. Or the wheelchair bound man at the front of the classroom.

Misty took a deep breath and waited a moment as her Loop memories settled in. Her name was Misty Jackson and she was attending Yancy Academy with her twin brother Percy...

"Right," she thought to herself. "This is definitely one of those Fused Loop things Pikachu mentioned."

This idea was cemented when another piece of information, trivial in the memories but major to her, came through.

"No, Pokémon?" She whispered to herself. Ash and Pikachu had mentioned worlds like this, and Misty had not been looking forward to visiting them.

"Is everything alright Miss Jackson?"

Misty snapped to attention and looked up at her teacher. "Uhh, yeah Mr... Brunner, just a little... headache is all."

Mr. Brunner didn't seem convinced but didn't push the matter. Misty looked down at her desk and saw she was in the middle of a history test, she examined the questions for a moment before saying. "Where the heck is Greece?"


Misty walked dejectedly to her dorm room, she was certain she had failed that test, her pre-awake self hadn't studied all that much and since she only knew a few things about this Earth, compared to her own.

Upon further analysis of her Loop memories she found she was not only apparently a "Troubled child", she had ADHD and dyslexia, and so did her brother. Misty sat down on her bed, thankfully she didn't have a roommate, and pulled her holocaster from her subspace pocket.

Ever since they had learned about subspace storage each Looper had taken to storing at least one of the devices in theirs at all times, it made it a lot easier to tell who was awake, as well as find any of their Pokémon who were Looping.

Misty switched on the device. "Hello?" She called, transmitting to all contacts. "Ash? Pikachu? Brock? May? Anyone?" The device offered naught but static. That confused her. "But if Pikachu isn't on then who's the anchor?"

There was a knock at her door and she quickly shoved the holocaster back in her pocket. "Umm, come in?"

As the door opened Misty was greeted by her current twin, although the only thing similar about them was their eyes, both sea green.

"Hey sis," Percy greeted with a smile. "Glad to see you're awake."

Misty blinked once, she was confused at what he meant by that, it wasn't that late and, something clicked in her mind. "Are you a Looper?" she asked hopefully.

Percy sighed in relief. "Good, I hate it when I get unawake new family members." He held out a hand to her. "Hi, I'm Percy Jackson, Anchor for the Last Olympian Loops."

Misty smiled and shook his hand. "Nice to meet you Percy, I'm Misty, just a uh, regular Looper."

"Where from?" Percy asked, sitting down on the bed beside his current sister.

'What do you mean?" Misty asked in confusion.

Percy's eyes widened. "Wow, wait, you mean you haven't visited the Hub yet?"

"Hub?"

Percy sighed. "Alright, I'm assuming you've had the "Welcome to the Multiverse" talk considering you aren't freaked out by a new world."

Misty nodded. "I wasn't personally awake when out Anchor got it but yeah, Pikachu explained-"

"Pikachu?" Percy asked in surprise. "Little electric mouse Pokémon?"

Misty looked at Percy in confusion. "Yeah, but how do you know about Pokémon?"

Percy shook his head. "Can't believe you guys are actually Looping, right hang on a second."

Percy reached into his subspace pocket and pulled out two things, a box set of five books the first being The Lightning Thief, and a DVD titled Pokemon: The First Movie.

Misty stared at the second as she recognizes Mewtwo, Mew and Pikachu on the cover. "How the?"

Percy sighed. "Looks like I've got to explain the Hub now."


Misty tapped her chin as Percy finished explaining. "So let me get this straight, the "Hub" is a universe that contains data on every universe in the loops, but in the form of fiction?"

"Yep," Percy said with a smile. "You guys are actually pretty popular, video games, tv shows, movies, mangas," His smile turned to a slight grimace. "Actually I'm kinda jealous, the books for this Loop are pretty good, but the movies," Percy shuttered. "I freakin' hate those variants."

Misty giggled. "So," she began. "What's your Loop like."

Percy smiled nervously and chuckled. "Nowhere near as peaceful as yours, I can tell ya that. We've got a Pantheon of Loop Aware gods who, due to something involving the River Styx and the Admins, can't interfere with the normal path of the Loop, a bunch of high powered baddies, mainly a currently shredded Titan and his brothers who wants to destroy humanity, the first ever goddess who gets upset when we stop said Titans and tries to destroy the gods, occasionally another set of Loop Aware gods who are the same but different from our own, and sometimes an entirely different gods who don't get along with ours and a giant snake who tries to swallow the sun, and every monster from Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and... a lot of other mythologies who try to eat Half-Bloods."

Misty gaped at him. "Half-Blood?"

"Half human, half god, that's what we are, congrats on being the daughter of Poseidon."

Misty pulled her legs up to her chest. "And how long does this last?"

Percy tapped his chin. "Well one of us, or one of my friends, Nico or Thalia, has to reach sixteen, which is... four years for us, depending on when Thalia wakes up a year to a few months, Nico's a bit tricker but about five to six years depending on how long he's been in the Lotus Casino."

"And that's when the Loop ends?" Misty asked.

Percy shrugged. "Sometimes, it can go about a year or two after when it includes the events surrounding Jason and Gaea."

Misty did some quick math. "So anywhere from just over two years to almost eight?"

Percy shook his head. "Nah, I at least have to reach sixteen, having Thalia chose to preserve Olympus just ends Kronos sooner."

Misty slumped.

"Unless my friend Luke is awake, in which case we don't have to worry about anything until after our sixteenth birthday."

Misty jolted up. "Why didn't you say that in the first place?"

Percy shrugged. "You didn't ask."


Misty set up her bunk in Poseidon Cabin, grumbling to herself, after school had ended, which had taken a few weeks, Misty had met her current mother, the currently unawake Sally Jackson, and her stepfather, whom she would have liked to feed to her Gyarados. Then, as Percy had warned her, they had been attacked by the Minotaur on their vacation, and then taken to Camp Half-Blood by the also currently unawake Grover Underwood, Percy's Satyr friend.

Misty had been disappointed to hear that Luke Castellan, son of Hermes, was unawake as well, and it seemed that so far only Percy's girlfriend Annabeth, and friend/rival Clarisse La Rue were awake.

Fortunately they didn't have to travel to the Underworld this time because Percy, having had many Loops to hone his fighting abilities, had destroyed the Minotaur when it showed up, thus saving his mother, and caught Luke with Zeus' Master Bolt.

Luke had still managed to escape but not without a major dent being put in his plan, one that would only worsen when Annabeth used one of the Golden Fleece she had collected to expunge Thalia from the pine tree on Half-Blood Hill.

"So," Percy asked Misty as he hung a picture of himself, Grover, Annabeth, the centaur Chiron, who was also Mr. Brunner, Misty had learned, Luke, Clarisse, and a few others Misty didn't recognize including a young boy in an aviator outfit, a girl in a "Death To Barbie" T-shirt, and a one eyed boy whom Percy called Tyson, on the wall of his bunk. "We have about a week before the Fleece gets Thalia out, although I don't think she's Looping either, and then the rest of the summer, even if Thalia doesn't join the Hunters of Artemis, and I gotta warn you, her non-Looping self almost always does, we have until winter break before her next birthday."

"And?' Misty asked.

Percy smiled. "You're a water trainer right?"


It wasn't the first time Misty was able to breath underwater, she'd looped as several Water-Type Pokémon. But it was the first time she could do it as a human.

"This is so COOL!" She cried as she swam.

Percy chuckled. "That's what everyone says."


Misty sighed from the deck of their ship as it sailed towards the Sea of Monsters. Percy had been correct about Thalia, the daughter of Zeus was now a member of the hunters of Athena, and while they had managed to rescue Nico and his sister Bianca from their military academy early, the children of Hades weren't awake either, not a surprise since Bianca hadn't even begun Looping yet.

Despite having freed Thalia with the Golden Fleece Luke was still planning to get this Loops version from Polyphemus' island, their spies in his army had assured them, although everyone was more than a little confused as to where a second Golden Fleece had come from.

As the ghostly vessel sailed towards the Sea of Monsters, Misty considered their situation, she, Percy, Annabeth, Clarisse, and her current half brother Tyson were all onboard, as it turned out Tyson was awake this time but had been late getting to Camp Half-Blood.

Percy had told her that they usually took the entrance that involved them battling Scylla and Charybdis. Misty was not looking forward to facing them, especially since Percy said they almost never got past Charybdis unscratched.

So far the only thing Misty was finding positive about this Loop was being the daughter of Poseidon and all the water related perks. As it turned out while Misty could control water the same way Percy did she could also communicate with, and control, sea creatures much more easily than him.

She had heard several jokes from Clarisse where the daughter of Ares compared her to someone named Aquaman, although it was still unclear whether he was a Looper or what.

As the boat entered the strait between the two cliffs it veered to the left, everyone preparing to attack the monster with everything they had. For Misty, this was an enchanted bow she had obtained from camp and her power over water. As the Gym Leader prepared herself she saw the gaping maw of Charybdis open, revealing rows upon rows of spiky jagged, rock-like... pink and blue teeth.

Then the monster spoke, and, in a deep and gravelly voice, said. "Cor-so-la."


"I just don't know what went wrong." Luke Castellan said to himself as he sat in his prison cell on Mt. Olympus. He had just stolen the Golden Fleece from that idiotic Cyclops when the Jacksons and their little team had shown up, at first Luke hadn't been worried. Then a colossal pink and blue monstrosity with a mouth wider than the rest of its body had jumped out of the sea and swallowed his ship.

Happily chirping. "Cor!" As it did.

He had then been captured by the campers and taken to Olympus for trial, it had in all honesty been a pretty fair trial, he had even gotten to pick his lawyer. Of course Zeus was the judge.

"How did they even get Charybdis to listen to them?"


Misty sat on the back of her Pokémon turned ancient Greek monster and stared up at the sky. Corsola was Misty's second Pokémon to start Looping, after Togepi. And she hadn't responded to Misty's message because, in her current form, she lacked arms.

It had taken some convincing to get Corsola permanent residence in the Long Island Sound but Percy had vouched for her.

After they had locked away Luke his army had pretty much fallen apart and Kronos' coffin had been recovered, then thrown into Tartarus. Misty and the rest of the Loopers had spent the past three years in relative peace training at Camp Half-Blood and, in the case of Percy and Clarisse, engaging in their favorite vacation Loop activity, a prank war.

Now, at Misty and Percy's sixteenth birthday, the Loop was, in all likelihood, coming to an end. Percy had checked and since neither Jason nor Sadie, the anchors for their respective segments, were awake, the Egyptian and Roman gods weren't an issue.

"So," Annabeth asked from her place on Corsola's back. "What did you think of your first fused Loop?"

After they imprisoned Luke Annabeth and Misty had begun talking more and trading notes on their home Loops.

Misty looked at her blankly. "I think this just reassured my opinion that every Looper is crazy." She said with a laugh.

Annabeth smiled. "Just wait, when it comes to crazy, you haven't even scraped the surface."


Misty woke up in her bedroom in Cerulean City. She blinked once and waited as her Loop memories set in. This one wasn't that odd, she was the sole Gym Leader because her sisters had all left on a cruise, that seemed to come up a lot, and she hadn't even considered leaving.

After sending out a message on her holocaster she found that Pikachu, Ash, and May were all Awake. She arranged a meeting with them in a few months for when May could actually leave home, then went about her daily business, until a familiar face entered the gym.

"Wait, You're the Cerulean Gym Leader?" Gary Oak asked. "But I heard the Cerulean Gym Leaders were the most beautiful girls in Kanto."

Gary eyed Misty and the shrugged. "Whatever, let's just get this over with."

Misty didn't even look up, after she had met Gary later on in the baseline she found his current self to be even more insufferable than ever.

"Hey, did ya hear me? Just send out a Pokémon already."

Misty gritted her teeth and clenched her fist, she felt a familiar pulling sensation in her gut.

"Come on! What are ya? St-PWAHHH!" Gary never finished his sentence as he was suddenly hit by the entirety of the Gym field. The poor boy was left unconscious plastered against on of the walls.

Misty looked down at her hands, staring in confusion for a moment, then she smiled, at this point, she could only think of one thing to say. "Sweet!"


21.5 (Awesomedude17): [Mortal Kombat] / [Frozen]

*CLANG*

Hanzo Hasashi was a man trying to reform himself, even after so many loops of experience.

*CLANG*

His atonement was not just for his baseline sins, but the sins afterwards as well.

*CLANG*

To him, the best way to atone was to put all visiting loopers on the path to goodness, or at the very least, not towards vengeance if it was the path they were on.

*CLANG*

For this one, the path was clear for her. She was already pure of heart...

*CLANG*

It's just that she was lacking skill.

*CLANG CLANG CLANG*

The woman's sword fell a ways off, right before Hanzo brought the blade to her neck.

He quickly sheathed the blade, and stepped back.

The two bowed, and Hanzo spoke.

"You have improved, but there is still much to be done, Anna."

"Thank, Sensei." Anna replied.

"I do have to ask, why have you come to the Shirai Ryu this loop?"

"Well, my sister Elsa decided she was going to train under Kuai Liang and the Lin Kuei this loops, so I figured that a little sibling rivalry wouldn't hurt."

"We have already made peace together, Anna. We are not in danger of either of us fighting." Hanzo said as he grabbed the sword on the ground.

"Yeah, I know, but Arendelle does have... those loops, and I want to prove that I can fight with my sister."

"I understand. The need to be equal to those who outclass you. The need to be of worth. I may not have been through that path, but I know that if done with reckless abandon, it will only end in tragedy." Hanzo handed the sword to Anna. "The sword is like your destiny. It requires discipline, but once perfected, can be controlled, and powerful."

Anna stared at the sword, and smiled.

"And to think, you used to be a vengeance-ridden fire zombie."

The air suddenly turned hotter as flames seeped through the cracks in the ground, with Hanzo having a not-too-pleased look.

"Not that I'm saying that it was a good thing." Anna quickly backtracked.

"...It seems that discipline is your weakest subject, young one. We shall correct this at once. To the dojo, where you shall perform 100 punches to the pole."

Anna whimpered as she rubbed her knuckles.


21.6 (Crisis): [Inside Out]

"Finally, Joy, where have you–" Disgust began her prepared beration for Joy's absence on Riley's first day of school, only to cut off when she saw the sorry state of the normally peppy emotion. "You look horrible. Did you at least get the number of the tornado that hit you?"

"You know how there's supposedly six main emotions?" Joy asked as she slumped onto the couch.

"Yeah, the five of us and Surprise," Sadness replied. "Why?"

"Well, every few Loops, I look around to see if Surprise actually exists, sometimes seriously, sometimes just in passing. And this must be a Variant, because I found her. At least I'm 63% sure Surprise was a her... I mostly just saw an orange and indigo blur..."

"You did?" Fear blinked in astonishment. "What's she like? Where does she live? Why isn't she here in Headquarters with us?"

"Seriously, does she not like Riley or something?" Disgust wondered.

"No, she loves Riley just as much as any of us, bu–"

"Yeah, not buying it," Anger huffed. "If she loves Riley, then why isn't she helping out up here?"

Joy groaned. "Look... it's... you really don't want Surprise up here. Trust me."

"Why?" Sadness asked from her position at the console while Riley was waiting for her homeroom teacher to show up.

"Because..." Joy sighed tiredly. "Okay, Surprise is femininely androgynous, kind of shaped like an unexploded firework, and spiral-striped orange and indigo like a barber pole. To the point she has heterochromia. Got that pictured?"

"Yeah, and it's tacky," Disgust snorted.

"Now, take the most excitable parts of me and Fear, add them together, and infuse with pure adrenaline."

"Oh, I don't like where this is going..." Fear muttered worriedly.

"Feed a strict diet of energy drinks, sugar, and coffee–"

"And you get Pinkie Pie," Anger huffed.

"Oh, heck no," Joy shook her head, "Surprise makes Pinkie Pie look sedate. And that's when she's not being called to do her job. When that happens, you take everything up to now and hit maximum fast-forward. At that point, she's nothing more than an orange and indigo blur when she slows down."

"What does she even do this Loop?" Disgust scoffed. "And why were you looking for her anyway?"

"I wasn't looking for her actually," Joy sighed. "Riley and I were talking last night about who writes the Mind Reader and I agreed to go find out for her. I got to her office shortly before she had to write this morning's edition."

"Wait, you're telling me that..." Anger trailed off as he looked for the part of the Mind Reader's articles that listed the writer and proceeded to stare as 'by Surprise' greeted him at the top of every single one. "...I don't believe this."

"Believe it. I was right in the middle of the whirlwind as she researched, composed, typed, and printed that whole thing up in under a second," Joy groaned. "Her job is basically to take in all unexpected situations, cross reference senses with known memories, and compile a report to help us decide on the best emotional response to whatever just happened. She decided to write the reports as a newspaper."

"Hey," Riley's mental voice interrupted, "this is really fascinating, but my teacher's coming in now guys and–"

The Mind Reader Anger was holding abruptly shifted, the new headline reading 'OH SHIT! UMBITCH!' and the subheader reading 'Multiverse's worst teacher invades Riley's school!' and a side article read 'What this could mean for our education!'. A small article on the back page was titled 'Head Emotion Joy visits head writer and editor-in-chief of the Mind Reader. Hi Joy!'.

"–crap," Riley finished despondently as the large toadish woman stepped to the front of the room and let out a short *hem-hem*.

"No offense, Riley," Joy sighed from the couch, "but since it seems like you won't be needing me much this morning, I'm going to take a nap. Wake me for lunch and we'll plan pranks."


21.7 (Crisis): [Kingdom Hearts] / [Inside Out]

"So what's the deal with 'Vampire Romance Island'?" Kairi asked her adoptive sister for the Loop. "Does that mean you actually like the Twilight series?"

"Oh, god no," Riley made a face. "It tries to be romantic, I guess, but the whole thing comes off super creepy and disturbing. It's just..."

"Just what?"

"I couldn't put it down!" Riley threw her hands up in exasperation. "The whole series is like the longest, most destructive train wreck ever! No matter how much you hate it, once you start reading you can't stop!"

"I know, right?" Kairi giggled.

"What, you've read it?"

"Of course! You didn't think something like that became multiversally despised simply by word of mouth, did you? From what I hear, Leah hasn't yet had a fused Loop with anyone who didn't know her place's plot backwards and forwards and already had several ideas of how to turn it on its head."

"You included?"

"Let me tell you about the time Sora and I–"


21.8 (kingofsouls): [Inside Out]

"So, tell me again why we went and bought nerd cards?"

Riley sat at her desk, and reached into her bag to take out the nerd cards Disgust spoke of. Thanks to the wonders of time travel and the Subspace Pocket Riley had a small stash of allowance built up from many previous loops. "Well Disgust," Riley replied. "Jace and the others told me about how their branch is a card game in ours. And I was thinking that if spells from their world are in cards in this one, maybe by looking at the cards would be a good way to learn some different spells."

Disgust simply make a sound akin to someone losing their lunch. "Cards don't suit you Riley. Trust me on this one."

"I think it's a good idea." Sadness spoke up. "And I think the art is pretty, right?"

"I disagree." Disgust stamped her foot, the sound of it echoing loud enough for Riley to hear it. "Our Riley playing a nerd game like this? What next, people playing them on motorcycles?"

There was an uncomfortable silence. "...please tell me I'm wrong."

Riley just opened the first pack of cards, leafing through them. "Let's see..."

Joy gasped. Before she could say anything, Fear beat her to the punch. "We are not convincing Riley that summoning sea monsters is a good idea. Summoning anything bigger than us is just asking for trouble."

As Riley leafed through the next few cards, fear became all that Riley knew. "Fear..."

"I'm sorry, but that... how do you say it, El-draz-i? Well whatever it's called, it looks like something we want to stay away from.

"I agree. " Riley shuddered. She leafed past it, and the next card caused Fear to hit the panic button again.

"There's more of those things!?"

Riley suddenly regretted buying several packs of Battle for Zendikar. "Fear, they're just cards."

"But what if you try to summon one of these things for real?

"I wouldn't worry about it." assured his host. "I don't think I can summon something that doesn't exist in our Loop right?"

"I suppose..."

Joy interrupted Fear's musing as Riley reached the end of the pack. "Oh wow, that Island looks AWESOME! I wish we go to wherever that place is sometime!"

"Typical Joy." Anger mused.


21.9 (kingofsouls): [Inside Out]

"Geeze, these Eldrazi things are ugly."

Disgust spoke slowly, the artwork of the monsters not of this world easily triggering her gag reflex. "You're telling me. Whatever hell they crawled out of, they should go back."

I don't think they want to leave where they already are." Disgust shot Sadness a look, before Sadness continued. "Well, it's called Battle for Zendikar right? I think there is a war going on in these cards, right?"

Disgust shrugged, not willing to admit Sadness made a point. "I just don't want to see another one of those things."

"Oh look." Riley duly relied. "Forerunner of Slaughter."

"That's it. I'm done." And with that, Disgust stomped off towards her room.


-Headquarters-

"Is it just me, or do these Kor remind me of Joy?" Sadness asked as Riley leafed through the next pack. Riley paused, taking a closer look at the cards featuring the Kor.

"Must be the white skin." Anger mused.

"Okay, these guys sound nothing like me." Joy rebutted.

"Actually, I think they do." Riley countered. "It sounds like they put a lot of emphasis of teamwork."

"Like Joy." Sadness agreed.

"And it sounds like they refuse to let their allies give up."

"Like Joy." Fear agreed with a nod.

Before Joy could rebut, Disgust had returned. She looked a little disheveled but otherwise okay. "Okay, I'm back. What did I miss?"

"We're comparing Joy to these Kor guys." Anger recapped.

"The who?"

"The creepy white skinned guys." Anger snarked as Riley leafed through her cards and showed Disgust one of the Kor. The green emotion got a closer look, leaning in to see.

"Yea, I can totally see Joy as one of the guys and making it work."

This piqued Joy's interest. "Really?"

"Oh yea. Not a lot of people can pull off the pasty white skinned look. Not to mention those adventure outfits oddly fit your style. Leather is in this Loop I hear."

"Awww, thanks guys." smiled Joy. Her ever present glow brightened as her smile widened. "You're the best!"


21.10 (Crossoverpairinglover): [Disney] / [Attack on Titan]

A fat man with pale blond hair and a red coat lifted up the clothed donkey with a wicked smirk "Now, what might your name be?"

"YEHAAH!"

"Good." He promptly ripped the donkey's clothes off and threw it into a box labeled 'Salt Mines'. The box was already housing several similar donkeys, and many others were boxed around them, with such horrible destinations in mind as 'unlicensed Mississippi petting zoo', 'Taliban', and 'guarding sheep'.

The last box of donkeys were the lucky ones.

"Next!" he was tossed another clothed donkey, which he glared at darkly "What's your name?"

"Eren," the Donkey said blandly as the man eyed the creature in disdain.

"Oh great, you can still talk-" but before he could throw the donkey back into a pen with the rest of the rejects, the Donkey bit his limb.

The Coachman assumed he had another suicidal one on his hands... before the golden lightning hit.


Dressed like a cop and giving the now horrifically beaten up Coachman and henchmen, with several hundred donkeys being led into the back of a posh looking truck destined to go to the magical reversal specialists in Disney City, Mickey Mouse noted the now human boy.

"Excellent job Eren," the Mouse extended his hand to the Soldier. "It's good to make that man pay for his crimes once in awhile".

"Happy to help," Eren smiled as he confirmed the meeting of hands and the resulting firm shake.


21.11 (kingofsouls): [Inside Out]

Riley looked at the barren and empty bedroom she called her own. Like usual, it was gross and disgusting and needed a nice healthy amount of fire to cleanse it.

Obviously Disgust was behind the console. "Is it just me, or is our room even more of a cesspool than it usually is?" Disgust asked, the sounds of her trying to resist hurling quite loud.

Riley looked around the room, and spotted several small collections of dead insects and spiders in myriad piles around the room. And despite opening the window, the room was incredibly dark, as if the light itself fled for dear life. Much to her horror, the dead rat that was usually there had multiplied into three dead rats, the trio rotting in peace.

Disgust quickly muttered a quick excuse before running into the recesses of Headquarters. The sound that followed made it clear of what she was doing. "You know," came the voice of Fear. "You'd think she would be used to this by now."

"The more things change, the more they stay the same." Riley replied.

"Are you talking about the room, or Disgust?"

"A little of both."

"Ah. makes sense."

"Okay, I'm back." came the sound of Disgust. It sounded like she was still reeling from how dirty the room was compared to how dirty it normally was. "Riley, this is like the worst thing ever. On a scale of one to ten, this room is a total F, and I for one do not wish this on anyone. Something must be done."

Riley nodded in agreement, and got up, dusting herself off. Riley then slowly smiled as a thought was forming in her head. "Hey Disgust...remember those art supplies you thought was a good idea to pick up last Loop you were awake?"

The familiar feeling of an idea bulb being plugged into the console soon followed. "Way ahead of you girl."


Later…

Jill looked at Riley's room in amazement, her jaw dropped as far as it could. She had first walked upstairs to see what Riley was doing up in there. What she found was… a surprise to say the least.

The entire room was transformed into a mural, the bright colors of a winter's day in a forest living up the room. The floor and ceiling were painted as well, the former resembling the icy floor of a skating rink, and the latter a beautiful night sky, complete with a painted moon and several of her daughter's glow-in-the-dark stars joining it.

And in the center of the room was Riley, standing on a ladder and garbed in painter's clothing (complete with hat), attaching the last of her stars to the ceiling. She looked down and waved. "Hey mom."

"Hey, Riley." Jill spoke slowly with uncertainty. "What are you doing?"

"Painting." Riley slid down the ladder, thankfully a short distance, and took of her hat. "I thought my room needed a little color, and since the movers are late, I thought now would be a good time to do it. You're not mad, are you?"

Jill just said nothing, amazed at what her daughter was capable of.

-Jill's Headquarters-

"I know Riley liked to draw, but this?" Jill's Disgust asked her fellow emotions. "When did our daughter become Bob Ross?"

"I wanna know where she got the paint." Anger asked. "And the ladder. And those pants and hat."

-Riley's Headquarters-

Disgust gazed at their work with a smile on her face. "Told you guys all that time on Deviantart was worth it."


21.12 (Evilhumour): [My Little Pony] / [Keys to the Kingdom] / [Pirates of the Caribbean] / [Bar Loop] - does not look to have been compiled in MLP Time Loops.

Mac blinked as he Woke up in his bar, everything set out to his normal standards except all his alcohol was still in his pocket.

Wondering at how his bar was set up without him doing it, he sent out a ping and instantly regretted it as the sheer power washed over his body, making his body shift in pain.

Grumbling loudly as he felt his bones actually shift and grow, he quickly put together he was in the House and that any usage of magic was going to be painful.

Ears flicking as he heard the door to his bar open, he was greeted by a somewhat familiar and unwelcome face in his bar.

"Jack Sparrow," Mac shifted the wheat in his mouth, eye's narrowed as he glared at the man in eye, tall enough now to do so with ease. "Why are you in my bar and why are we in the House?"

"Ah, my good bartender," Jack held up a finger to halt his words. "Technically, you are in my ship on the Border Sea, with a few modifications my dear friend."

"What do you mean by modifications?" Mac raised an eyebrow.

"Ah, follow me, my litt-" the captain paused, looking the stallion up and down. "Big pony."

With a grunt, Mac followed him out of the bar and onto a deck of working Denizens, tending to the Black Pearl. Spinning around on spot, Jack grabbed the doorknob and raised it slightly upwards and turned it around. Pushing it open, Mac saw that it was vast vault filled to the brim of casks, more than likely filled with rum knowing Jack.

Turning onto the Anchor, Mac said in his best deadpan voice, "So ya dabbled in House Sorcery just ta make your drinking rooms even bigger?"

The grin on the man's face was all the answer Mac needed and thus the towering stallion facehoofed.


21.13 (Crisis): [Kingdom Hearts] / [Percy Jackson]

"So..." Riku thought about what to say to the visiting looper. The one who looked like he had once had an olive complexion that had gone very pale from lack of sunlight. "You're a son of Hades, huh? ...What's that like?"

"Honestly, not as bad as most people make it out to be," Nico de Angelo replied easily. "My baseline self included."

"Really?" Riku raised an eyebrow. The kid's dad must have been a much nicer variant of Hades than Riku was used to dealing with.

"Yeah, he's a pretty cool dad... For an immortal god that can't always be there for his half-human kids because of cosmic-type rule stuff."

"He at least give you birthday presents?"

"Gifts from gods tend to be a lot more serious than that," Nico defended. "But he does give me a present most Loops."

"Oh yeah? What?"

"A zombie."

Riku failed to keep the wince from his face.

"Specifically an undead 18th-century French chauffeur named Jules-Albert."

"That... Okay, that's a cool zombie."


21.14 (Zephyrous555): [Frozen] / [Gravity Falls]

"So it appeared to me that I was gifted my baseline powers due to some sort of astrological sign," the queen of Arendelle reported. "Something to do with Saturn I believe." Her guest began documenting her findings in the red leather-bound journal in his lap.

"That's incredible," he replied. "And you haven't found any other reports of magic like that?"

"Only when we are fused with Storybrooke."

The mid-afternoon sun shone down on the two of them. One was the perfect model of poise and grace, the other a frantic bundle of questions and curiosity. "You know Dipper, not many loopers really care about the origins of magic. Most of us just take it at face-value."

"I know, your highness," he replied, looking up from his book. "But Gravity Falls isn't like most places. I wanna know as much as I can about magic so I can finally crack its secrets."

"I told you before, just call me Elsa. I do not stand on formality with loopers." Dipper grinned sheepishly before taking a sip from his teacup. "Have you met Twilight Sparkle?" Elsa asked, helping herself to a biscuit off of the tray. "She could probably answer your questions for you."

"Everyone keeps telling me about her, but we haven't looped into Equestria yet. That's why I'm writing all this stuff down; pocket's not big enough for more than a few books and I don't have a laptop or computer in baseline." He took another sip. "Stan's not big on tech."

Their tea time was interrupted by a new arrival to the balcony. "Hey Elsa, you seen Anna," the blond anchor asked. "I was supposed to take her up the mountain with her new friend to meet the trolls." Elsa furrowed her brow.

"Actually no, we haven't heard either of them all day."

"Oh that's never a good sign with Mabel." Dipper announced, hastily shutting the journal. However, before the three of them could begin searching, a joyous "WHOO" caught their attention. From the peak of the castle roof, a body was cast off into mid-air and began a quick descent toward them.

"ANNA" Elsa cried in horror. However, before any of them could react, the falling princess reached out with something and fired a hook into the timber facade of the castle. The rope attached to said hook snapped taut and allowed her to rappel safely down to the balcony where the three stunned onlookers stood. "How was that?" Anna called up to the roof while the contraption in her hand rewound the rope and hook. From the top of the roof, an exasperated voice cried out;

"NO, NO, NO, you did it wrong!"

In an instant, a much younger girl joined Anna on the balcony. "You need to shout 'GRAPPLING HOOK' before you shoot it!"

"Wait, why do I need to do that Mabel?" The twelve-year-old dramatically threw her arms in the air.

"Because it makes it MORE AWESOME!" She replied. Anna stood there thinking for a moment, before shrugging.

"Can't say I disagree. That would explain why Batman was always so grumpy." It was then Anna caught her sister's eye. She grinned and held up the grappling hook in her hand. "She's letting me keep it!"

"Ok, enough with the formalities," Mabel announced. "ON WITH THE PRACTICE!" The two girls held up their devices and shouted.

"GRAPPLING HOOK!"

They then proceed to throw themselves over the balcony railing and continue their rappel down the castle, giggling and gossiping all the way. Kristoff groaned loudly and proceeded to bang his head against the timber door frame. Elsa began breathing deeply in a vain attempt to control the flurries bursting from her fingertips. Dipper, however, simply looked at the sky and groaned.

"Something tells me, this is gonna become a problem."


21.15 (kingofsouls): [Inside Out]

"Disgust," Sadness asked the green emotion, who was currently in the middle of a breakdown. "What's wrong?"

"What's wrong?" Disgust snapped back. "What's wrong!? I took a look in the mirror and do you know what I saw?" Sadness shook her head no. "Broccoli! I look like Broccoli, the most disgusting, hideous, gross thing in everything!"

Disgust let loose a cascade of tears. Sadness said not a word as she patted Disgust on the back. Now probably wasn't a good time to tell Disgust of the time where she was a broccoli.


21.16 (kingofsouls): [Inside Out]

-Headquarters-

"Oh. My. God." Disgust gagged. "Why is everything so retro and junk this Loop?" Everywhere Riley seemed to go was straight out of a disco dance floor. Case in point, her house had no fewer than three disco balls in it, and that was the least of Disgust's complaints. "This is my punishment Loop isn't it? Isn't it?"

"I dunno about that, but I kinda like it." replied Riley. Joy nodded her head with a smile as she gently hit a button on the console. Almost immediately Riley started to bust a groove to the beat of a disco song playing on the radio.

"Okay, I can let the disco thing slide just for you Riley, but I swear I will find a way to torch every polyester suit we come across without getting caught."


21.17 (Crisis): [The Nightmare Before Christmas]

Jack Skellington blinked as he Awoke to a new Loop and beheld a Halloweentown bedecked in... well, he wasn't quite sure. Plenty of shadows as per the norm, but also a variety of colors shining out from odd angles and moving at irregular intervals, creating a spooky sort of rainbow effect.

'Not exactly what I would have done, but not bad...' he appraised, examining further. There were several orbs made from faceted mirrors hanging around town that broke the light into star-dot pinpricks as they slowly rotated, shining a moving starry field onto the ground and walls as if to mimic the night sky. A pulsating dance beat echoed in his bones, driving the pumpkin king to tap his feet with the rhythm.

And in the middle of the town square hung a large banner that read '45th Annual Boogie Man Dance-Off!'.

"Well now," Jack grinned toothily, "what's this?"


21.1: I have the feeling this is in reference to something. I don't know what it is, I don't want to know what it is.

21.2: Turms is an Etruscan god, their equivalent of the Roman Mercury and Greek Hermes.

21.3: If he's a Looper or Loop-Aware, he's not saying.

21.4: (grins) I love this idea.

21.5: Anna's getting quite the workout this Loop.

21.6: Per ruling (and edits), Surprise is a non-canon character and cannot Loop.

21.7: Riley's got a point. (For my part, I originally read Twilight and its sequels just to see what the big screaming deal was. I will admit, some of the music from the movies is good.)

21.8: Not familiar with Battle for Zendikar...

21.9: And more.

21.10: JUSTICE!

21.11: Ai yi yi!

21.12: It's Captain Jack Sparrow, what did you expect he'd do?

21.13: (in response to last line) Yes. Yes, it is.

21.14: Indeed...

21.15: Yikes.

21.16: This probably happened around the time there was a disco outbreak all over the Loops.

21.17: And more disco.
