[Wreck-It Ralph gets up to another daily routine he's settled into, living on the first floor of Community House 7. He makes sure the kid's awake and okay, then he heads over to the community kitchen to down an entire gallon of milk. And eventually, he manages to split off from Vanellope long enough to find somewhere quiet to address the journals.

He'd been avoiding using the journals too much since he arrived. After all, anyone could recognize him as the bad guy or have sore feelings from the wreckage he caused when he first arrived here in Luceti. But he'd have to face them sooner or later, with that whole Christmas thing coming up. First, there was that Secret Santa thing to worry about. He was assigned someone named "Harry Dresden". And he had no idea who that was. And secondly? There was something he needed to do for the kid for Christmas, too. He'd need all the help he could with that one.

But first? He'd have to face the music. And that meant showing his face on the journals.]

Uh, hey... everybody. All you... Luceti guys. A lot of you may recognize me from that, uh, wrecking I did a few weeks back. Or you might recognize me from that video game, Fix-It Felix Junior. [A small frown; he hasn't met anyone familiar with the game yet here.] Either way, I wanna apologize for, y'know... getting off on the wrong foot with you all. I was in kind of a dark place, and really confused... but long story short, I'm feeling a lot better now! Things are going really good. You don't have to worry about me wrecking things and being "the bad guy" anymore. [He says that complete with finger quotes.] Unless you need one, in which case I guess I could try fitting it into my schedule? My name's Ralph by the way. Wreck-It Ralph. [A pause. He tries waving with one of his giant hands, but his brow furrows with confusion.] Do any of you know my game?

[Filtered from Vanellope van Schweetz and Harry Dresden]

I got two unrelated questions for you guys. Now, this doesn't have anything to do with Christmas or anything. But... first of all, is there anyone here who's an expect at this Battle Dome stuff? I need someone who can help me put together a really, super specific simulation for - uh, for a thing. If you know a lot about go-karts, that's a plus.

Oh! And my second question. Who the heck's Harry Dresden?

[folklorist]

You want to know who Harry is? [ Hm. Not the strangest of questions to be sure, but Helios will try to help to the best of his abilities. ]

He's one of the magic users of this place. A rather nice person too. [ Even if Helios knows the other might not like that sort of word coined towards him. ] Any reason why?

[voice]

[gonnawreckit]

Oh, a... magic user, huh? I'm just... curious about the guy! The kind of things he likes and whatnot. No real... reason.

[voice]

[folklorist]

Ah hah. Of course. I do believe he's a fan of Coke and, ah donuts. There's always magical items as well too.

[voice]

[gonnawreckit]

That's some combo there. What if I could find a magic donut?

[voice]

[folklorist]

A magic donut? It sounds like a fantastic idea. [ Helios sounds like he enjoys that idea too. ]

Or a donut with a Coca-Cola frosting.

[voice]

[gonnawreckit]

Sheesh, when he mix and match, the possibilities are endless. I have my - I mean if anyone had him for a Secret Santa or something, they'd have their work cut out for them.

[voice]

[folklorist]

Oh yes, most certainly. I-I mean with so many things to consider...

[ Helios kinda gets where you're going with this Ralph. He won't tell a soul, he promises. ] If you need any help with, ah, magicking something up, though...I wouldn't be opposed to lending a hand.

[voice]

[gonnawreckit]

Oh really? You some kidna mage dude, too?

[voice]

[folklorist]

Ah actually yes! There's a good few of us here to be honest. You c-could probably ask anyone to, um, h-help you out actually. [ If the other wasn't comfortable with Helios offering his assistance that is. ]

[voice]

[gonnawreckit]

Yeah? I bet you could make a whole RPG party between the bunch of you. But I'll check out my options. See if I could get something more down to earth done.

[voice]

[folklorist]

Hm. Coca-Cola flavored donuts might be interesting to try. But...perhaps checking your options would be best, yes. [ Helios can't say he knows if Harry's tastes in such things would be there either. ]
