Bare Success

--[x][Diplomacy] Open diplomatic channels with the US Government (Janus Lee) (53% w/ XP)
DC 95 (Reduced by XP)
67+18+26+3=114
Mild Success
Recognizing his talent for disguising insane scientific madness under a facade of reason, cooler heads in your administration assigned Janus Lee the unenviable task of reaching out to the United States government. A minor issue arose as you insisted upon a proper diplomat meeting your envoy, a somewhat touchy subject given the government's continued non-recognition of Doofania as a state, region, or coherent idea. A compromise was reached when Janus met with Dawn Folsom, Senator 'in absentia' for the state of Minnesota. As a rising star known for her strict demeanor and championing the cause of those displaced by the Midwest Dustbowl, Folsom proved able and willing to establish a basic understanding with the government, namely that no you will not be taking back the Doofania thing, but that DEI would be willing to provide various useful services to the government in… basically the same way your fellow corporate overlords already do. It's not the full recognition you were hoping for, they seem dead set on avoiding that for some reason, but it is something. It's a bit of an awkward arrangement, but it should be a workable one.
Reward: Collaborate with the US Government unlocked!
Research Agreement with the US Government unlocked!
Imagination Institute action unlocked!
US Government opinion tracker unlocked! (This will be filtered through Doofenshmirtz's perceptions)
--[x][Diplomacy] Recruit from your rolodex: Gomez (Juniper) (77% w/ XP)
DC 60
71+18+17+1=107
Decent Success
When Juniper let you know that you had an occult scientist right under your nose, you were understandably interested. It turns out that Gomez was already sorta working for you under LOVEMUFFIN, so all Juniper really had to do was tell him to move his office. He doesn't seem to have actually done anything when the rest of L.O.V.E.M.U.F.F.I.N. threw their collective selves off an overpass, so you're willing to give him a shot.
Gomez has been added to your hero units!

--[x][Stewardship] Start a Greevil Energy Conservation campaign (Phineas and Ferb) (78% w/ XP)
DC 65 (Increased by Big Idea, reduced by XP)
81+24+38+3=146
Critical Success!
While you were busy with other projects, you assigned your interns the task of getting that old Greevil Energy campaign off the ground. You didn't think they had it in them, but Phineas & Ferb did a musical number that had the whole Tri-State Area conserving in the name of Greevil! You predict the city's energy consumption dropped to a fraction of what it used to be!
…Wait, why is the energy consumption going back up?

--[x][Intrigue] Investigate what's happening in Florida (Queen Lizzy) (57% w/ XP)
DC 90
49+17+18+1+10=95
Bare Success
Lizzy's investigation into Florida was a bit weird. You were surprised to hear that she liked a lot of people down there for being 'agreeable' and 'straightforward', which you realized a little later probably means that they were all just as disturbing as she was. Harsh, but true. Their fashion sense was out of date too, with most people dressing like it was still the 1950s or something- so many fedoras. Bad memories.
Just when you were worried Lizzy would get nothing out of this, she informed you that she had noticed a 'real creeper' (again, this is coming from her) trying to be sneaky in the area and not fitting in with the usual aesthetic. He left behind a poorly scrawled note saying "Awl is knot wheel", which your cryptanalysts believe to be a form of secret code portending grave danger. Perhaps you should look into this.
'Investigate the Suburban Smilers' Action unlocked!

--[x][Learning] Study weird object (Dr. Jumba Jookiba) (50% w/ XP)
DC 130 (Reduced by XP)
24+38+38+3=103
Failure
Jumba was intrigued to be placed on the task of puzzling out this strange little object, whose confusing whorls and mysterious runes befuddled even him. You get the feeling that for a guy like him, it's basically a non-copyrighted colorful square puzzle cube. He seems willing to take another crack at it… after a suitable length of time performing Science!, of course.
--[x][Occult] Form a Coven (Janna Ordonia) (77% w/ XP)
DC 85
1+4+17+12+3=50
Personal Attention reroll! Critical Failure averted!
28+4+17+12+3=64
Failure!
You've come to realize that maybe Janna wasn't the best person to put in charge of your coven. While she didn't just ignore the project this is basically the exact opposite of what she's good at, and she wasn't exactly successful in organizing your band of assorted magic users into anything resembling a functional organization.
-[X] Personal Actions:
--[X] Doof:
---[X] Personal Attention: Form a Coven
---[x] Tinker with your Inators
[ ] The Equivalent Exchange-inator! Next turn, one random, successful national action becomes a critical success. One other random action becomes a critical failure, regardless of whatever it rolls.
[ ] The Rainfoodinator! Giant falling meatballs and sausages crush cars and clog the streets with rotting meat. Take an income hit from the cleanup. Doof's public image is damaged.
Votes for an inator will be included in an upcoming interlude.
--[X] Goofy (Finish your degree online)
20
After a very long hiatus, Goofy attempted to continue his online degree. Unfortunately, after being so busy for the last year or so and everything else that had been going on, he didn't make much progress at all, essentially having to start his classes over from the beginning.
--[X] Major Francis Monogram (Reorganize OWCA (242/250))
39
To be continued in Interlude: Priorities Delivery
--[X] Genghis Khan (Study science and technology (154/200))
76
Temujin's studies have served him well. While he's still far from an expert in the modern sciences, Ludivine is proud to say that he is no longer baffled by the concept of telecommunication or space travel. He's well on his way to being a functional member of society. Poor guy.
'Artifact of the Past' malus reduced!
--[X] Hego (Do Good Deeds)

To be concluded in Crisis: Kataclysm
--[X] Dennis the Duck (Train with Maui Mallard)
50
Dennis pestered Maui for ages before the poor duck finally gave in and started him on an intense ninja training regimen. For weeks on end, Dennis punched logs and waxed Maui's surfboard, all amounting to… a slight improvement for the diminutive toon.
Progress revealed: 50/250
--[X] TECHNOR (Psychoanalyze: Doof)
66
To be continued in Interlude: Priorities Delivery
--[X] Max (Bond with Dad)
88
You allowed Max and Goofy to take a vacation last month despite Max having used up the last of his vacation days on a trip to Cocomo last November. The two of them took a wonderful cross-country road trip that was never once interrupted by supervillain attacks, insane shenanigans, or the most terrifying animatronic park known to man. While this is just a single occurrence of you doing something nice for them, it's representative of a broader company culture that Goofy truly appreciates and Max at least bears with.
Goofy quite enjoyed what was essentially a paid vacation and is a bit more loyal as a result! Goofy gains +10 loyalty!
--[x] Vanessa (Learn Capoeira)
29+10=39
Your little pumpkin's attempts to learn capoeira weren't the greatest. Normally you'd argue that anything Vanessa does is brilliant, but here… you kinda have to agree with the instructor, her form is all off and she only seems to have the barest of the basics down.
--[X] Kitsune (Spread Chaos)
97+10=107
To be continued in Interlude: Priorities Delivery
--[X] Roddy Blair, King of Lairs (Build an evil lair)
84
To be continued in Crisis: Kataclysm
--[X] Tom Lucitor (Rule The Underworld)
No roll needed
Tom was off in the Underworld these past few months, tending to his duties as a prince.
--[x] Wasabi (Organize your Workstation)
69
Wasabi spent quite some time organizing his workstation, making sure all his pencils were sharpened to perfection and meticulously dusted, as well as bolting several objects to his desk to avoid any potential toon madness. Overall, it seemed to have a calming effect on him. You noticed that his eyes weren't twitching as much when he glanced at your 'Doofenshmirtz Evil Vending Machine' in the breakroom. When asked, he claims he is 'updating His System to work under unusual duress', whatever that means.
Progress Revealed: 69/150
--[X] Malifishmertz (Tend your goozim menagerie)
58
The miserable bundles of hatred weren't any more pleasant today than they were any other day. They weren't any less pleasant either, so you'll count that as a win!
--[x] Marco Diaz (Train with Macbeth)
80
Marco disappeared for several months to train with some weird old guy in New York City. He didn't tell you much but you got the impression that things went well.
