This is a nice tale.

A perfect ending fit for the birthday boy!

This was beautiful! I’m surprised Alex doesn’t know Bob Omb Battlefield since he played Super Mario 64. I guess he just forgot. Nevertheless, I would’ve loved to be at the party Alex got. It sounds like a really amazing party and I’m really happy for the kid! Great job on this!

That was an excellent conclusion, StarlitDuck! What better way than to have the party set up in Bob-omb Battlefield! Especially since King Bob-omb was already ousted way long ago.

And thank you so much for writing this story for me. You don’t know how happy that made me when you featured Alex in there. Keep it up!

Underwater driving fun!

That was an amazing trip back to Peach’s castle.

I liked the part where they went underwater and checked out the coral reefs and such. It’s a shame that they had to come across an eel.

But what confuses me is why Alex was able to breathe underwater if he’s not a superhuman. I’ll figure it out later.

Anyway, I’m looking forward to the party!

This was a breathtaking chapter! And now I’m gonna say this, “GCN Mushroom City and 3ds Cheep Cheep Lagoon (Aqua Lagoon in my canon) for Mario Kart 9!”

Mario and Yoshi are still afraid of eels! Just perfect! And being aroused by Italian food. You got the characters just right. Now it’s time to party!

A party? I love parties! I have a feeling Alex is going to have a blast at that party.

The best we can hope for is that Mario and friends make it back to Toad Town in time for the party.

But for now, see you later, Celia and Ruby.

Driving time!

This was short but still sweet! I like the designs you made up for each of the karts and their emblems. Can’t wait for the party!

Now that is a great race!

That was awesome! I played Double Dash music as I was reading this. I liked the strategies that Celia and Alex were using. I liked the inclusion of Aqua’s Special Item like I predicted in Ask Mario.

It was nice that they tied, but that’s not possible in the actual game. Like nintendoscript15 said, I would’ve asked to see a slow mo video to determine the winner.

But nevertheless, this was a very fun chapter!

Alex’s words at the end made my heart feel happy.

That was a fun race!

I like how the tension was building up during all three laps with Alex and Celia using different items and having to deal with their kart briefly losing control.

If I was Alex, however, I would ask for a video review to see who actually crossed the finish line first. But I liked the chapter over all.

And that was nice advice Alex gave Mario after it was over.
