Indium was anchoring the nine o'clock news. "And now," she said, "with tomorrow's weather, here's Mercury— unfortunately."

"Haters Gonna Hate," said Mercury with a telegenic smile. "We're expecting the first heavy snowfall of the season tomorrow, and GREAT GOOGLY MOOGLY WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!!"

Indium pulled a face off-camera. "...WHAT," she said flatly.

Mercury waved her arms in the air. "POLAR VORTEX!!" she cried. "STORM OF THE CENTURY!! SNOW UP TO OUR FREAKIN' EYEBALLS!! EEEEEEEE!!"

Indium held her face in her hands. "WHY are you ALLOWED on the AIR," she whimpered.

"Because I make the weather interesting," Mercury said proudly.
