What follows is the third installment of Dr. Sloth's Webjournal entries, I
hope you enjoy it. If this is completely foreign to you, I suggest you look
up part
1 and part
2 before you begin.

Dearest Webjournal,
The days grow long and looming. As I sit here typing away, my heart grows heavy.
The Evil Denizens Costume Ball was a complete disaster. The Pant Devil kept
stealing parts of my costume out of sheer jealousy. He was dressed very unimaginatively
in a white wig, fake beard and white robe. I still don't know who or what he
was supposed to be, but his claws were longer than usual and he was carrying
this unusual stick. I was, of course, bent on winning the best costume prize,
but once he hid my attack fork I no longer stood a chance. To make matters worse,
my lovely companion Jhudora's affections have waned. She spent most of the night
in the company of a Vampiric Blumaroo. She claimed her costume went well with
his, but I saw through her petty lies.
There was a brief scuffle a little later when The Snowager turned up dressed
as Illusen, the Earth Faerie. It seems Jhudora dislikes Illusen rather strongly.
I had to threaten them both with my sludge ray before they finally calmed down.
The worst part was that it has broken once again since the Snowager blasted
it with ice. I'm afraid I'll have to build a whole new weapon now. Perhaps I'll
reinforce it with transparisteel this time.
That reminds me, Binky has been asking me to get him a 'NeoHome.' I must look
into it later when I am less depressed. Right now I'm going to finish off that
carton of triple chocolate chunky mynci ice cream.

The oddest thing happened this morning. I had just returned from my morning
jog around the space station when I got home and noticed Binky acting rather
strangely. Apparently he has come down with a strange disease in which he believes
himself to be a chicken. I'm not quite certain how to deal with this rather
alarming condition. Jhu suggested I take him over to the Healing Springs, which
I am hoping was her subtle method of inviting me to her cloud which is the next
cloud over from her. I am pleased to report that she Neomailed me last night
to apologise for her appalling behaviour at the costume ball.
I asked her what was wrong and she claimed Von Roo knew where my attack fork
was and that she was trying to get it back so I might still be eligible to win
best costume. That's so typical of Jhu, always thinking of others. How could
I possibly hold a grudge when she was simply trying to help me? I think I will
head over to Faerie Land now and put her theory to the test. I'll just change
and grab Binky from the coop and be off!

Dearest, most wonderful Webjournal,
I am in love!
When I took Binky to the Healing Springs yesterday, the Water Faerie there gave
me a poisonous snowball. I'm still not quite certain what to make of that. Poor
Binky is still clucking and eating nothing but grain, but that is inconsequential
in the scheme of things. When I stopped by Jhudora's Cloud she was delighted
to see me. Before arriving, I stopped by the marketplace and picked up a slime
potion as a token of my affections. She was delighted with my gesture and to
show her appreciation she gave me a lollipop! And it's such a lovely colour
as well, purple and green, her favourite. She even asked me to return tomorrow!
I have a date with Jhudora tomorrow! I'm so happy! But whatever will I wear?
Perhaps I need to run back out to the clothing shop this evening.
To celebrate my newfound happiness I think I will go torture some minions.

I am slightly confused today. Once again I brought Binky over to the healing
springs, but the Water Faerie simply gave me a mushroom, which, when I administered
to poor Binky did nothing but increase his health point by one. He still believes
himself to be a chicken.
Next I stopped in to see Jhudora and she asked me to run an errand for her.
I went out and got what she asked, but she seemed slightly distracted and told
me to return tomorrow. She must have been very busy; I know how it can be when
you are plotting to overthrow a world. Which reminds me, I must get back to
work on that new ultimate weapon. Neopia is so wretchedly peaceful these days,
I must invade soon before someone else does. Perhaps I will go do some spying.

I had an interesting day in Meridell today. There was a farm where I went and
stacked some turnips. I'm not quite sure I understood the game fully, they seemed
angry when I tried to mutate the turnips into an army of irate vegetables. Then
I counted some potatoes, although I'm not sure I fully understood the point
of that game either. Next they handed me a basket and sent me out into the fields
to pick berries. I found nothing but rotten berries, old boots and dung. I think
there may be a conspiracy.
Jhudora once again asked for my help in finding an item for her evil plotting.
I'm more than happy to help with anything to overthrow Neopia, but she refuses
to tell me what she's up to. When I asked she just cackled and said Fyora was
going to be very angry when she finds out. She did give me a rather unusual
looking green potion though. I'm debating whether or not to feed it to Binky,
perhaps it will cure him of his ailment. The Water Faerie is being no help at
all; today she healed him by 3 points, but refused to cure him.

Binky still thinks he's a chicken, I'm giving up all hope of ever getting
him back to normal.
The healing springs were, of course, no help today either. I wonder if there
might not be some sort of 'pharmacy' where I can go and buy medicine to cure
Binky. After all, if this has happened to him, it must have happened to other
Neopets. Unless it's another of Fyora's plots to run me out of Neopia. She truly
is cruel.
Today Jhudora sent me out for a Grilled Cheese and gave me her personal hairbrush
in return! And here I thought she wasn't interested anymore. Even super intelligent
criminal masterminds can make mistakes.
Which reminds me, I've been neglecting my plotting.
