I've been so excited for this one cause I've been laughing about it ever since HeavensLuminousArc brought it up XD

I hope I did your idea justice!

Disclaimer: I don't own RotG, Apple products, or the song 'You Spin Me Round' by Dead or Alive (or the Little Match Girl, which I forgot to disclaim in the previous chapter, hence doing it here)

'Boogie'man


...

Jack shoved a fist into his mouth to bite back the laughter threatening to bubble up in his throat. Who knew North had a security office? The yeti on duty had spotted him in the doorway and waved him in and now they were going through a few highlights caught on camera. He'd particularly enjoyed the ones from the times he'd tried to break in, or the one where the elves had tried to create some sort of giant robot armour and ended up blowing a fuse and leaving the Workshop in darkness, but his favourite was still the one where his seasonal siblings had passed around eggnog to the elves with rather sadistic expressions on his face. It was recent, too, and he had a rather decided feeling that he didn't want to know the story behind that one.

But then they reached another folder and another file which quickly replaced the eggnog one as his favourite; not just because of the video itself – but also its potential. Actually, now that he thought about it, this wasn't the first time he'd seen the potential, only at that time he hadn't had any way of recording it. But now…

"Hey, do you think I could get a copy of this?" Jack asked the yeti (Jim, if he remembered correctly).

Jim nodded, probably thinking the exact same thing he was, and pulled a USB out of a drawer.

...


...

"Jamie, I need to borrow you!" Jack called through the classroom window. The pane of glass muffled his voice but Jamie still heard (along with several others, he noted happily), turning his head away from where his teacher was talking about something or other to stare at him.

"I'm in class," he mouthed back.

Jack held up the USB he'd borrowed from Jim as if that explained everything. "This is more important!"

Jamie rolled his eyes, turned back to the front of the class and held up his hand.

"Yes, Jamie," his teacher asked, eyebrow raised.

"Could I please go to the bathroom?"

"Quickly, then."

Jamie hurriedly scooted out of his seat and out the door, heading in the opposite direction of where he'd claimed to be going.

"This better be important," he told the winter spirit the moment he stepped outside. "Calculus is really hard."

"Calcu-what? Nevermind. Yes, I promise it's really important. But we're going to need a computer," Jack replied, an energetic grin splitting his face.

"Can it wait until lunch? Then we'll have a whole hour instead of a few minutes."

"Fiiiiiine," Jack groaned. "How long 'til lunch?"

"About an hour."

Jack heaved an exaggerated sigh but relented, deciding to follow Jamie back to the classroom. He quickly decided he hated calculus, after which point very little calculus actually got done.

...


...

They borrowed a computer in one of the science labs. After plugging in the USB and playing the file, Jamie was quick to conclude that, yes, this was more important than calculus.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Jamie asked, an uncharacteristically conniving grin on his face.

"If you're thinking of making this into a remix with music then yes, yes I am."

"Hang on, I think I have just the song," Jamie reached into his bag and rummaged around until he found his iPod. "Do spirits have the equivalent of YouTube?"

"I don't think so," Jack frowned. "But I do know someone who has a rather large connections base and would love to spread this as far as possible. We'll have to put it on some kind of portable device, though."

"Perfect."

...


...

Lleu was laughing so hard he couldn't breathe. Jack had to snatch the mp4 player off him before he could drop it or incinerate it. Jamie had said it was old and that it didn't matter too much if it got damaged, but he would rather keep it in as few pieces as possible; especially if it was going to be making a few trips around the world.

"I-I knew he was the Boogieman," Lleu gasped, trying to catch his breath. "But I didn't- didn't know he was the- the Boogieman!"

Jack snorted at the joke, pausing the video. "So, think you can make it go viral?"

"I would be honoured. How did you get this?!"

"It was caught on the security cameras at the North Pole and Jamie made the remix and added the music."

"That kid is gold," Lleu said, slowly calming down. "Never let him go."

"I don't intend to."

"Okay, okay, I have to go show this to Fool," Lleu took the mp4 player from him. "Catch you later, Snow Cone!"

Jack waved, silently hoping Pitch never found out (although a part of him wanted him to know at the same time). He would probably never forgive him for spreading a video of him dancing on North's Globe to Dead or Alive's 'You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)'. But, to be fair, it was Pitch's fault; if he hadn't showed off his Broadway skills (numerous times, actually) during that little fiasco when he'd tried to take over, Jack wouldn't have had the video to begin with.

Satisfied with that conclusion, Jack chuckled to himself as he flew back to the Pole to return the USB. And maybe there were some more videos worth watching.


Guest Review Responses:

WEast: Haha Sandy's great XD That girl was the main character from the fairy tale "The Little Match Girl". It's really sad but a really lovely story. Would recommend. I do love the wind; such a great character for something that's not actually a character :P

Shttrd Glas: I was planning a chapter about something similar, actually. I'd love to discuss it more with you; is there a way for me to do that? (doesn't have to be FFN - if you have a dA account or an account somewhere else, that would work)
