Hello! My name

Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Hello! My name

Hello! My name is Alex S. And no, this is not my real name. It's just a name from one of my favorite book series "The Unwanteds." Has anyone else read this really great book series? 

Some things about myself: I love to draw, and read. I'm homeschooled, and absolutely love it! 

Anyways, I'm new here and I can't wait to get to know all of you! I've heard alot about Feather, Dev and Puck from my sister Joan B. of Arc. I'm already thinking of ideas for and AE and a CAPTCHA! 

Hey guys! (and girls if you prefer it that way.) 

Joan B. of Arc here. This is my little brother, (yes, he really is my brother,) and it's his first time here. He's super excited, so please welcome him to the CB!

Hello, Alex! Welcome to the chatterbox!

*confetti explodes from the sky as trumpets play in the background*

I'm H.A.B., and I'm eleven. I'm an aspiring artist / animator, electronic music maker, Undertale fanatic, swimmer, homeschooler, and a lot of other stuff that would take way too long to write!

I guarantee you'll have a great time on the CB! We're all very nice here! Well... (glares at AE Spyro), most of us, anyway. 

It's handy that you have Joan to explain things to you, but if you're still a bit confused, there is a concise guide to the chatterbox that you can read here:  http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/204967

Bye!

Hello, Alex! I'm Ruby, but that's not at all my real name either. I'm a boy, by the way, despite the misleading name of Ruby- it's from the Pokemon game, which is older than you. Oh my god. I remember when Emerald came out. Excuse me, I'm going to go cry in a corner. I own games.... that are older than the CBers here.... That being said, I also own a 22 year-old-game, so that's not saying much.

I'm terrible at drawing, but I like reading too. I'm sorry, I haven't heard of The Unwanteds. I go to a public school which is very, very hard. Don't ever grow up, kid. That's life advice for you. Getting older and stuff like that sucks. 

Anyway, welcome, welcome!

Yeah … it's kinda weird owning games older then you. I have Pokémon sapphire and some old Zelda games that were my dad's.

*sniff* Those old games were sometimes better then these new ones. Like King's Quest. The best old computer game I've ever played.

King's Quest is great. Which one did you play?

Oh man.... you're younger than Sapphire? I can very, very vaguely recall when they came out because my sister asked my parents for one.... Oh man.... Cho, you make me feel older than the Admins. We'll start a small corner of the CB called the Old Farts Club.

Yeah ... I think so. Let me google it. Just by nine months. And that wasn't my dad's, it was my uncle's. 

And I have played King's quest I-III. I has it's own classicness, but is put to shame by the other two.

II surprised me a lot with the plot twists, but I certainly enjoyed it. It got a little confusing over on the island.

With III I enjoyed the new time factor, as well as the hunt for the magic items. =) That was fun. That cat was evil. =D

Ok, Unwanteds rant over. Anyway, I'm balletandbow, I'm 12 years old, and I have three AEs. I'll let them introduce themselves, or else they might find some random flaming pie and shoot me with it.

You bet I will!! I'm PieSlingerXtreme, or PSXtreme if you like.  

Aww!  I thought it was my turn to get introduced first!!

Well I beat you to it. 

Fine. Well I'm Torstyn, ballet's only boy AE. 

And it's sooo terrible for you isn't it. I'm BowAndBalletTheMechanicalPencil, but please just call me BABTMP. I was ballet's first AE, and I've been in ALL her ski lodges!

So there you have it!  I have to get ready for school now, but I look forward to seeing you around Alex!

Welcome Alex! I saw that post you made awhile back on Pinkie PIEper's welcome thread.

He seems suspicious ...

Um, okay. My favorite fandoms are reading, writing, LoTR, SW, MLP, HP, marvel, and a billion other things I forgot.

Elsa is my first AE, who is a manga cat-girl with ice powers, Blizzard her brother who is an ordinary white persian cat who can speak english, and you've met Pinkie, and Sloth my CAPTCHA.

Anyways, welcome to the CB!
