I don't think Ragnarok has happened anytime recently, but there has been some re-writing of the constitution and some minor inventions (such as CAFfeine.) By the way, I don't think we've met before, so nice to meet you!

Another returned-bie here with a hug and a graduated cylinder because I don't remember giving it to you on the first go. :D

But you missed a few thousand penguins being let loose on HQ, the entire HQ being Anime-ified, and the decision to render Cute Animal Friends for CAFfiene, at least since I've been here.

Welcome back!

Good to have you back. I don't believe we've met before, as I only joined up back in May, but I'd like to welcome you back all the same. It seems a lot of oldbies have been making a return as of late... I guess the wonderful insanity of it all could not be ignored. Anyway, because I like the word anyway, have some bleepolate cupcakes and join the fun.

As a gift I bequeath to you an Awake of dubious origin. It primarily feeds on espresso, but anything other then CAFfeine should be fine. Somehow, CAFfeine induces a state wherein the Awake tries to pump out as many offspring as possible.

Awkwardness? Here? Nah, we'll just through marshmallows at you or something. (Well...I might. The others? Who knows? X3)

Welocme back, oldbie!

In your absence a substance known as CAFfeine was invented by yours truely. It is a faintly sparky pink liquid made from Cute Animal Friends with similar properties to caffeine.
So as a welcome back gift have some shiny cans of the stuff.

Have cup of welcome-back soup! Is made in glorious Motherland.

...Actually, never mind. You know what happens to people who try to eat food of Soviet Russia :V

(Spoiler: food eats you!)

Have some welcome-back fudge!

-Waves- Hi, nice to meet you. Here, have a pack of tea. The tea comes from my very best carnivorous tea, but it's killed and in tea bags, so it's unlikely to eat you.
-Is a midbie(?)-

Khroma! We missed you last shipfest, y'know. Me and Bryn and Caddy were actually wondering what had happened to you. It's very nice to see you alive and well and back. Will you be returning to the IRC?

Glad to see there are still oldbies coming back! As for important news, well... The Constitution has been revised and is shinier than ever. That's about all that has happened so far during my stay at the PPC. *is a fairly shiny newbie*
Anyway, as a welcome back present, here, have an Unlikely Avian. This owl will self-destruct in sixty seconds.
