A/N - It's about time I actually use a suggestion! You'll know if it's yours just by the story. Oh, one thing: I don't actually use most of these sites and apps you guys are suggesting, so I may not be able to accurately portray them easily. Sorry about the (2?) month hiatus, I recently got into Undertale and wanted to write stuff for it... and got sidetracked from life in general. So, I hope you enjoy this chapter, and let the story commence!
Joy, after getting Riley to turn off her computer for the night, sighed contentedly. Riley had enjoyed an eventful day - hockey lessons from 8-10 in the morning, a birthday party at Riley's new friend Jordan's house from 11-4, and the rest of her day had been spent reading fanfictions about this movie called "Inside Out". Though she had not seen the movie, and it had not occurred to her that this movie was even in theatres, much less out on disc, the fanfictions had proved to cause her a slight deja vu in that she semi-recognized the characters from somewhere... but from where was still left in the dark.
"Guys, 5 seconds 'til lights out!" Joy called to the other emotions, who were huddled in a corner discussing the plans for the next day. Sadness looked up from the diagram that she had been drawing of Riley's school's interior, and nodded, noting Joy's sudden jolt. Joy seemed to have been frozen in time, like an iceberg, never to melt, until she seemed to glow even brighter.
"Do you guys remember that website that Jordan was showing us at his house?" She slowly questioned her team. The other three brightly colored emotions looked up from the diagram and nodded slowly. Joy illuminated the entire room, at this point, she was too excited about her idea.
"We should make an account too! Riley might like drawing, maybe we could become popular there, and people would like our art!"
"Joy, we don't just become popular because of art, and I'm pretty sure that Riley's art is nothing to be known for," The bright green emotion shook her head, clearly disgusted with Joy's idea. "Besides, most of the people on that site were way better than Riley or Jordan. Heck, they were even better than Riley's art teacher. There's no way we could become popular because of this. We're just not good enough."
Fear began wringing his hands in anxiety. "I dunno Joy... what if the kids at school recognize our work and hate it and make fun of Riley at school, and what if some stranger starts following Riley... What if Riley begins being stalked!" The purple emotion had begun pacing in circles around the table on which the diagram stood; he had almost made a 10th lap around the table when the brick-red emotion stopped him by standing in his way.
"If you wear a hole in this floor from your pacing, I swear I'll burn you to a crisp! I took ages yesterday cleaning it from when Disgust found that awful fanfiction and threw up! I'm not cleaning it again!" The brick's head had burst into flames, causing the more nervous of the two to jump into the air and curl into a ball upon landing.
"Guys... It'll be fine! And if any of those things do happen," Joy told the other emotions calmly while watching the screen go black, "We'll just tell our parents, and they'll fix it!"
Anger nodded, letting his head cool down, and Disgust snorted. "Well, if you are actually going to create an account on Deviant Art, then make sure to let me decide what gets put on it. I don't want us getting a bad rep for terrible art that you pick out, Joy."
Joy nodded, acknowledging the shorter emotion's comment. "Alright then Disgust. Fear, Sadness, are you two ok with us creating this account?"
Fear hesitated, seemingly going over a list of possible malignant outcomes in his head, but he eventually decided that the consequences could be handled, and nodded cautiously. Sadness saw nothing wrong with the idea, so she nodded solemnly.
"Joy? As long as nothing sad happens... I'll be ok with this. Just... if anyone says anything mean to us about it... let's tell Mom and Dad." The tear-shaped emotion confirmed with the star.
Joy smiled, knowing that they'd have something new to do in the morning. "Alright then it's settled! When we get up, we'll create this account and maybe post something?"
"Yeah!" The other emotions agreed in unision. After completing their diagram, and planning out the routes to their classes, they all headed to bed, ready for the next day.
A/N - So, this chapter will have 2 parts, because I was able to figure out how to write longer stories and make them more interesting. The next part will hopefully be written soon, and I'll hopefully be back to updating around once a week.
