After so much chatting and talking to one another about everything related to Goomas and the holiday spirit, finally it was time to become a little more festive and ramp the party up to a higher note and more celebratory energy! Everyone was so happy and delighted, bellies full of good snacks and fizzy cider, and then they began to sing!

There were songs about every imaginable aspect of the holiday, and all the little goobies sat and listened to each one, imagining the lyrics as images before their eyes and helping them to really get into the holiday spirit completely.

Ursula was the first of them to begin singing, and at first it was a wordless tune, just an elevated system of humming and vocals, but as she continued she began to add words and formed a beautiful melody about the beauty of life coming full circle, and the little goos getting their influences and turning them into fully fledged goobies themselves. The boys couldn't help but sing and hum along because she had kept the same tempo throughout the song and while they couldn't predict the next word they jumped right into it with gusto.

Not wanting to be left out, Chaos was next but his song was a bit loud and not so melodious, but he really put his heart into it and made a tune all about the wonders and delights of the season, with a special focus on the weather and all of the snow. He made the blustery winds and freezing cold sound like something a bit more magical than it sometimes felt to him, when he had been out in that same weather before coming into the fold. His song was beautiful but it had a harshness to it and between the words there was an unspoken message of the power and brutality of nature, even in the weather that it bestows upon us.

Anemone's song was a happy, somewhat repetitive tune about the delightful goodies of Goomas, the presents and snacks and drinks and parties, about how everyone was together and this was their time to celebrate. While it may not have had the professional air of Ursula's high notes, it was catchy enough that it could certainly become a hit on the radio or at karaoke night.

story: ...to go out and investigate, at least then he might know what to do, or have some peace of mind. So, with reservations, the too got out of bed and started off down the hall, armed only with his flashlight and his wits. He listened close for the pattering sound, and followed it, but just when he was getting close to it, then--!

story: --the source of the pattering was some sort of invisible creature? 'If it's invisible, then how can I properly investigate?' the little goo thought to himself, but then soon his quick wits gave him a great idea! If he ran to the kitchen and grabbed the flour that was left out from baking earlier, then surely pouring that on the invisible creature will reveal it! The only problem with this plan was...

story: ...that it would make a hideous mess. Absolutely terrible.
How'd he even know where the invisible creature was to begin with? Would he just have to go and spread flour everywhere in order to find it? That didn't seem as much as a good idea as he had originally thought.
Maybe instead he'll...

story: ...try to coax it out with a snack! Well, maybe this is just an excuse for the goo to have a midnight snack, but still! It could work, right? So, the goo headed to the kitchen, trying to decide what snack to pick. What kind of snack would an invisible creature like? Maybe some cookies? Well, there was at least a good variety of those, surely at least one type of cookie would be tempting enough for the source of the mysterious noise to investigate, right? The goo reached for the cookie jar, but...
