It was a fine day in HQ. The emotions were helping Riley get ready for the day, as she had school to attend. Anxiety was making sure Riley was getting everything done. All of a sudden, Joy was grunting, trying to pull a box. However, she was struggling to do so.

Embarrassment rushed over and helped Joy with the box. He put it to where everyone can look at it.

"Joy?" Anxiety wondered. "What is that?"

"I'm not sure," Joy answered. "We'll have to open it and see!"

"But what if it's bad?!" Anxiety panicked. "What if it's a prank?! What if there's like a bomb or something like that-"

"Oh, would you cut it out?!" Anger face-palmed.

"Besides, who would want to send us a bomb anyway?" Disgust commented. "There's no one here that's against us."

"Well, I dunno about that..." Fear said, thinking of the Mind Police.

"Besides, the box was inspected beforehand, so there's nothing that will hurt us!" Joy said, opening the box. The first thing she saw was a smaller box. She picked that up and opened it. Inside was a bunch of cards that had questions. Joy gasped.

"What?! What is it?!" Anxiety asked in anticipation.

Joy showed the cards to the emotions. "The questions are back!" she cheered.

"Questions? What questions?" Envy asked.

"A couple years ago, fans would ask us questions in these cards and we had to answer them!" Joy explained. "Now we get to do it again with the new emotions!"

"Fans?!" Envy exclaimed with googly eyes. "We have fans?!"

"We sure do!" Joy smiled. "And they're back with more questions than ever!"

"So...we just answer the questions? That's it?" Anxiety asked.

"That's it!" Joy said. "Here, let's ask one for each of the OG's, so the newbies can get an idea!" Joy picked up a card. "This is for Sadness! Would you rather have Joy or Anger as a best friend?"

"Well, Joy is already my best friend," Sadness answered. "But it would be cool if Anger and I were friends, as long as he doesn't lose his temper with me."

"But I'm Anger! It's what I'm supposed to do!" Anger exclaimed. "It's like a hobby of mine!"

Sadness sighed and grabbed the next card. "The person that answers reads the next question, which is for Joy..." Sadness read it out. "Cherry pie or blueberry pie?"

"Ooh! That is tricky!" Joy said. "Both are delicious! But if I had to pick, I would say cherry!" Joy grabbed the next card. "This is for Anger. Why do you call Fear a beanpole?"

"Because he looks like one obviously!" Anger grabbed the purple emotion's arm and pointed at him as if he was presenting him. "Look at him! He's completely shaped like one!"

Fear chuckled nervously.

"Speaking of which, this is for beanpole himself," Anger said. "Fear, would you rather kiss Joy or have a pillow fight with her?"

"Huh?! K-Kiss?!" Fear yelped. "I don't wanna kiss anyone! I'm too scared! Even though I'll lose, I'll say pillow fight!"

Joy sighed with relief, as she was surprised with the awkward question.

"This is for Disgust," Fear said. "Disgust, what is the secret of being fabulous?"

"It's all about the confidence," Disgust smiled, flipping her hair. "It's about loving yourself and how you look." She noticed Envy staring at her with googly eyes. "Are you done?" the green emotion said in annoyance.

"I'm sorry, I just can't help it!" Envy giggled.

"I guess you're next, since you got my attention," Disgust sighed. She grabbed a card. "Envy, do you like Anxiety?"

"Of course I do!" Envy said. "We're basically best friends! I'm like her sidekick!" Envy was too small to reach the box so Embarrassment got the next card for her. "Thanks, Embarrassment! Oh, this is for Ennui. What kind of games do you play on your phone?"

"I'm not a games type of person," Ennui said. "I like to scroll through social media and watch boring political speeches to put myself to sleep at night. That's it." Joy handed the bored emotion the next card. "Embarrassment," Ennui said. Her eyes widened with slight interest. Embarrassment started to get nervous.

"Embarrassment, do you like Sadness?" Ennui read out.

"Huh?" Sadness looked up. "M-Me?"

Embarrassment gasped in shock and hid himself in his hoodie.

"It's ok, Embarrassment! We won't judge no matter what answer you give us!" Joy reassured.

The pink emotion peeked out and quickly said, "As friends." Then he covered himself once again and ducked to the ground.

Sadness smiled slightly, as Joy commented, "I'll read this next one for Anxiety!"

"Ok..." Anxiety breathed. "Ok ok ok...it's only a question..."

"There you go!" Joy said. "Deep breaths! It's only a question! It's not gonna be anything..." Joy paused. "Oh..."

Anxiety froze. "What?! What?! What is it?! Is it bad?!"

"No no no, it's not terrible, it's just...it's a dare," Joy stated.

"WHAT?!" Anxiety shrieked. "A DARE?! No no no no, not a dare! Anythig but that!" The orange emotion began running around in full panic.

"What is the dare, Joy?" Sadness asked curiously.

"She has to annoy Anger," Joy said.

"ANNOY ANGER?!" Anxiety freaked out even more. "This can't be any worse! No no no, I can't annoy Anger!"

"Give me a break!" Anger sighed. "Just get it over with and don't worry about it."

"But what if I cross the line and you start to hate me?! You'll say that you won't hate me but deep down you really do and this causes issues in Headquarters and-"

"OH WOULD YOU JUST SHUT UP?!" Anger screamed with fire coming out of his head.

Anxiety yelped and then gasped. "Wait a minute! I did it!"

Anger was all of a sudden confused then smirked. "Not bad. Not bad at all."

Everyone applauded Anxiety as she smiled and grabbed the next card. "Ooh, this is for all of us! Since we've known and lived with each other for years, with 5 of you living with each other for 13 years, do you consider yourselves family?"

"Of course!" Joy beamed. "Team Happy forever!" She pulled everyone into a group hug.

"What about us? The new emotions?" Anxiety asked nervously.

"Of course!" Joy said. "We are all family, no matter how new!" She invited everyone into the hug. Envy and Anxiety came over, but Embarrassment and Ennui refused.

"Let's do another round of questions!" Joy said, releasing the hug. She grabbed a card. "This is for Fear. Ooh, it's a dare! And it's a good one!"

"Uh...you mean good as in good for me or entertaining for all of you?" Fear questioned.

"Both!" Joy smiled. "You have to tell me a joke!"

"A joke?!" Fear stuttered. "I-I don't know any jokes! But...I can try..."

"Don't worry! You can tell me any jokes, no matter how bad! I'll always laugh!" Joy encouraged.

"Hmm..ok...I got one. Why don't scientists trust atoms?"

Joy thought for a moment. "Ooohh, I'm not sure. Why?"

"Because they make everything up!"

Joy was the only emotion to burst into laughter. "HA! I totally get it! Because atoms make everything!"

"You just completely ruined the joke by explaining it," Disgust scoffed at Joy. "And Fear, you really had to do the joke that Bree already told us?"

"That was the only one I could think of!" Fear explained. "This is for Disgust. So we know you have a crush on Lance Slashblade."

"Who doesn't?" Disgust sighed romantically.

Joy pointed at herself. "You're looking at her."

"Anyway, this person wants to know...how did it all start?" Fear continued.

"Great question," Disgust smiled. "When Riley first saw Lance in the game he's in, I knew she had a crush on him. She would always play him and never picked any other character. I started to fall for him too. It's just...he has the voice, the strength, the personality...ugh, he has everything a girl could ever want. However, Bree and Grace didn't exactly feel that way about Lance, specifically because of his power move, so she kept her crush on him a secret, which was why he was banished into the vault."

"Banished?" Joy said. "Ok, you're starting to sound like him."

"Anyway," Disgust said firmly, glaring at Joy. "Did I let him be thrown away? No! I made sure that he believed in himself, even with his weak power move."

"Awww..." Fear, Anxiety, Envy, and Sadness said in unison.

"Ok, yeah, cool, how romantic..." Joy said sarcastically. "Anyway! Next question, Dis!" Joy quickly handed the green emotion the next card.

Disgust grumbled at the happy emotion. "This is for Ennui. Can you do something else besides scroll on your phone all day?"

Ennui glanced from her phone. "Do you have a problem with it?" she inquired, as if talking to the fan who asked. "My phone is of very high importance." She shows the console app. "Without my phone, Riley and I would be ruined." She reaches over and grabs the next card. "Anger. What shocked you the most about Joy's outburst in Long Term Memory?"

"Outburst?" Sadness asked in confusion, as she wasn't here for it.

"I'll explain later," Joy giggled. "Anyway, Anger, answer?"

"I was shocked that she got angry in the first place," Anger answered. "I was actually impressed. I like when people stand up for themselves. It makes me feel purposeful. I'm glad Joy has an angry side." Anger grinned at the yellow emotion, to which she grinned back. "This is for Joy. Have you thought about Bing Bong during your second journey in Long Term Memory?"

"Although I was focused on getting back to HQ with Riley's sense of self, yes I did," Joy grieved. "Long Termwas where we first met, but I definitely thought of him in Imagination Land. He was the mayor there and he introduced me and Sadness to it!" Joy sighed but then got herself together. "Envy!" Joy giggled at the next dare. "You have to sit in Disgust's lap!"

"HUH?!" Disgust gasped.

"Ooh, ok!" Envy carelessly walked to the green emotion. Anger and Joy were bursting with laughter.

"NO! NO WAY!" Disgust cried. "Don't you dare!"

"Oh come onnnn! Pleeeeease?!" Envy's googly eyes return.

Disgust groaned. "Fine...but this is gonna be so awkward..." She picks up the tiny emotion and places her on her legs. She hands Envy the next card. "This is for Sadness," Envy said. "Do YOU like Embarrassment?"

"U-Uh...I mean...I don't understand why people pair us up but...similar to Embarrassment, yes, he's a good friend," Sadness said. Embarrassment blushed and looked away bashfully. "Anxiety, what would you do if someone sat on your chair?"

"I mean, I don't want to be selfish," Anxiety said. "If they want to use it, they can but..." She gasped. "We don't have enough chairs! We need to have another one in case Fear needed to use it but it was occupied!"

"Good thinking," Fear nodded in approval.

"I'll get that in ASAP!" Joy said.

"This is for everyone but Joy and Sadness," Anxiety said. "How did you react when Joy told you that Bing Bing died? Is there a way to bring him back?"

"Oh Bing Bong..." Sadness started to cry.

"Being forgotten in the Memory Dump is scary so props to him for sacrificing himself so Joy can get to Headquarters," Fear said.

"Teenagers don't really have imaginary friends anymore so I don't know if there's a way to bring him back," Disgust added.

"If only I didn't do that stupid runaway idea..." Anger growled.

"This is for Embarrassment," Fear said. "Have you ever considered asking Sadness out on a date?"

"Another one...?" Sadness sighed.

"We're friends..." Embarrassment face-palmed. He covered himself yet again and walked away.

Joy looked at the screen. "Oh! Riley's about to head for school! We have time for one more question!" Joy grabbed a card. "This is for all of us! Who is your favorite emotion?"

"Joy!" Sadness, Anger, Disgust, and Fear said in unison.

"Awe, shucks," Joy smiled. "You guys are too much. I'm gonna say my bestie, Sadness!"

"I say Disgust!" Envy said. "I wanna look as good as her!"

"Shocker," Disgust grumbled. "Can she get off of my lap now?!"

"Ok ok, fine!" Joy chuckled. The green emotion tossed Envy out of her lap and wiped her leggings.

"I guess the one that I would be annoyed with the most is Anger," Ennui said.

"Fear and I are very similar!" Anxiety said.

"And I assume Embarrassment would say Sadness?" Joy wondered.

From the other side of HQ, Embarrassment peeked and nodded. He looked at the screen and gasped, seeing that it was time for Riley to go.

"Uh oh! Mom and Dad are calling us!" Anxiety panicked. She ran to the console to get Riley to hurry up.

"Riley has to go to school now! I guess we need to wrap it up," Joy said.

"But we didn't answer all of the questions," Sadness commented.

"Don't worry! We'll answer them plus more in the next round!" Joy reassured and headed to the console.

Hey guys! I'm so sorry I didn't answer all of your questions! As Joy mentioned, they WILL be answered in the future! It would've taken wayyy too long to answer every single one of them. Until then, keep asking some more! I really enjoyed all of them! I will try to get a lot more answered next time!

New chapters will be posted every couple of days so new reviews can come in. Anyways, toodles!
