Octonauts Q&A

ANYWAYS five things about...

"Okay," laughed Crash. "Enough mucking around. We're playing five things now, and Yza you can watch the first round to learn. Nothing personal, it's just that I've explained it a couple times now, and the definitely not real audience of sound effects is starting to get bored."

He then proceeded to pluck a name out of the first hat. Everyone in the room--except for the questioners, of course--looked incredibly anxious.

"Paani."

One particular monkey tried to make himself invisible, and it wasn't Yza. Perhaps he was sending urgent prayers to whatever deity he believed in concerning the next name to be drawn. Perhaps he was wondering whether not moving for a very long time could make him invisible like Drax from Guardians of the Galaxy claimed it could. Crash simply shrugged and pulled the name from the other hat.

Everyone's breath caught.

"Professor Inkling."

Paani released his breath.

"Oh well that's not too hard." The Professor looked rather pleased. "What am I supposed to do again? Insult him?"

"No!" Princess said with a shake of her head. The Professor did not looked so pleased any more. "You're supposed to say your five favourite things about him."

"Oh well that's still easy," Paani said hurriedly. (A whisper of "smooth save" could be heard from a very certain pirate cat).

"He's very kind."

"Why thank you Paani."

"He's got a lot of helpful books in his library."

"That's true," chimed in Shellington. "Any subject, any author, he's got it. It's like the Tardis. Those bookshelves hold more information than is humanly possible."

"Thirdly he is very knowledgeable himself. And he loves to share all the stuff he's got up there," Paani continued with a tap of his temple.

"Fourthly... Fourth? Fourthly? Fourth? Anyways, the fourth thing is that he's very humble. It's impossible to get the man to say a good word about himself."

Everyone nodded.

"Your last compliment to our dear Professor?" Amy asked.

"I like his herbal tea."

This last one was met with very, very  mixed expressions. To point out a couple, Shellington was shocked, the Professor was pleased and Kwazii was utterly mortified. 

Mixed emotions indeed. 

"Well," Amy shrugged. "That was a fun little introduction to this new little game. Who's next?"

Crash smirked, or everyone could tell that the little fish in the jar was smirking. One or the other.

"We'll just have to wait and see..."
