A/N: I can't believe it's been four years since I last updated this story. I kinda just shifted all my focus onto solely working on Chaos on Earth (along with the occasional oneshot), but after looking back at my fanfics, as well as all their stats, I realized that I miss working on multiple fanfics. And it's also good for me to relax and not write seriously every once in a while.

With that being said, Chaos on Earth will still be my number one fanfic, but it's always nice to have side projects too. So what better fanfic to bring back than Logical Mario?

Time for fanmail!

Ooh, nice cliff-hanger! I wonder whats about to happen! So, Wario and Waluigi get to be hero's now, that's certainly going to be interesting. And all hail count bleck, one of my favorite mario villains!

Anyway, I'll look forward to the next chapter!

Hail Bleck! He is one of my favorite Mario villains too!

BOOM Fanfic-a-latta (chapter 3)

Oh! CDi reference!

Mah boi, these references are what all true writers strive for!

BOOM Fanfic-a-latta (chapter 18)

Hey, Count Bleck!

Also, evil glowing TV is evil.

Also also, I love this story.

Also also also, what if you talk about stickers/cards?

That's actually a great idea! I think I'll use it in one of the next chapters!

That is super cool! My Arms Are Blue happens to be one of my favorite fanfics of all time!

'What Mario and Luigi saw next shocked them to the core...' Bowser in a dress? Bowser in a dress and wig.

Might have to use that idea in a future chapter... XD

Mario and Luigi were shocked at what they saw on the TV. Or rather, what was in it.

"Is that... a clear warp pipe...?" Luigi asked.

Mario immediately leaped out of his seat. "It's our way out!"

"Now just a minute!" Bowser called from a smaller screen within the TV. "You're supposed to be magically trapped inside your home as a prisoner of logic. Don't even think about jumping into that pipe-"

"Too late!" Mario called as he leaped headfirst through the warp pipe in the screen.

"Mama mia... What am I gonna do with him?" Luigi said to himself as he followed his brother through the pipe.

Both brothers sailed through what seemed like an endless field of white. Fortunately, there was no sign of Bowser anymore.

"...Is this illogical or what?" Mario thought aloud.

"Tell me about it," Luigi agreed. "Just when it seemed Bowser was going to gain power from your anger, somehow, we escaped. Don't question it, just follow your instincts, am I right?"

"Now we're talking!" the plumber in red said.

Moments later, Mario and Luigi emerged from the clear pipe and found themselves in Super Bell Hill.

"So… there's no explanation for that warp pipe appearing out of the screen, huh?" Mario said.

"Guess not," Luigi said. "Oh yeah, isn't the whole concept of clear pipes kinda defying the laws of physics?"

"They're like glorified vacuum cleaners!" Mario responded. "You stick your hand in there and then you suddenly get sucked through and out the other side. And it works the same going the other way!"

"These things are impossible to keep clean!" said a random Goomba who emerged from another clear pipe. "Hey, aren't you two supposed to be back home watching illogical videos?"

"Nope!" Mario said. "Long answer, the author changed the flow of the story for probably the third time, maybe fourth, and he's going back to the way it was from like chapter 7 or 8 where all the good stuff is. Short answer, Bowser can't make me reject what has grown on me for over 37 years."

"Oh…" the Goomba blinked. "Fair point."

"No Piranha Plants?" Luigi said.

"Nope!" the Goomba said. "Where do their roots attach to? Actually, never mind, they're in regular warp pipes too. Unless we're talking about Ptooies who can actually walk."

"While we're here, let's talk about Super Bells!" Mario said.

"Finally, a new powerup that's not a mushroom or a flower!" Luigi said.

"You don't want those things," the Goomba warned. "Eating the hard, metallic-coated plastic of those bells will change your brain waves and make you think you're a cat, like for real. Also it turns you into a Super Saiyan, but I don't know about that part. Plus it jingles when you hiccup, and it's really annoying."

"I already used them dozens of times and there were no issues," Mario said.

"Oh… Maybe it just affects Goombas… and Bullet Bills… and Thwomps… and–"

"Stop rambling and keep cleaning these clear pipes!" Goomboss ordered from a lawn chair set up nearby. "And don't even think about turning into a Cat Goomba! Cats don't make good Goomba henchmen!"

"I'm so glad they don't have these clear pipes back in Brooklyn…" Luigi shrugged as the Goomba continued cleaning the pipes with its somewhat nonexistent hands.

"Why are you making him do this again?" Mario asked Goomboss.

"Because 'boss' is literally in my name," Goomboss said. "Also I'm an environmentalist. And aren't you supposed to be kidnapped by me inside a painting?"

"Remakes are barely canon, so I doubt it," Mario said.

"If it weren't for that game, I'd still be stuck with being called just 'Goomba King,'" he said, looking back at his magazine. "At least Goomboss is an actual name. And I also got to be in Mario Kart DS, so there's that."

"True," Mario said.

"Oh yeah, let's not forget that cats can't glide in real life!" the Goomba said. "Super Bells make you be able to do that!"

"Okay, now I have to try that!" Goomboss said as he got up and ran toward the nearest bell tree. Before anyone could stop him, he was now Cat Goomboss.

"Non-canon transformation alert!" the Goomba called as Goomboss ran off to test his new powers. "Also, he's distracted which means I'm free!"

He ran off too, leaving just Mario and Luigi.

"…What just happened…?" Luigi said.

A/N: After four years, it's so good to be back.

I wanted to return to Logical Mario first because it's the easiest to write on the fly without needing to take any notes. However, I may want to try and continue some of my other fanfics as well, so here's the rundown:

SMB:TNC is still on hiatus because I want to make sure my notes look good after four years before continuing it; I have the next chapter of The Mossflower Excursion written down with notes, and I thought I cancelled it the way I did with Team Sonic's Education and Learning, but it turns out I never did; the aforementioned Team Sonic story is unfortunately still cancelled, but I may recycle some ideas for a new fanfic; I'm doing my best to plan some chapters for Tales from Amset-Ra's Fighting Pyramid, and I'm currently writing the next chapter of Dimitri's Revenge.

I know this is a fanfiction and not a blog, but I have a Twitter page where you can check for updates! Check it out in my profile page!

Also, I liked the Logical Mario format from chapters 4 through 11, so I wanna bring the story back to that. I'll probably have a bunch of villains chasing the Mario Bros to bring them back though!

I wrote the first several paragraphs up until they emerged from the clear pipe back shortly after I finished chapter 18, and I wrote the rest over the last two days.

Just like before, updates will be sporadic, but I hope to be able to tide people over while I'm nearly finished the next chapter of Chaos on Earth.

Until next time everybody, do the Mario!

I really missed saying that...
