Chatterbox: Pudding's Place

PARADISE --- 

PARADISE --- 

your fingers run down the forest green spine of your favorite book. you've read it far too many times, and you think it's now time for a new favorite. your eyes flicker around the vast expanses of the alcoves of the library. what next? 

 you run your hand along the leathery spines of the books, one after another, stretching seemingly infinitely, a snake eating it's own tail. 

 you decide on a book covered in golden dust. you flip it open, stardust glittering on the pages, and you begin to read. the words slide together, however, and you find yourself in a void of emptiness with nothing but a letter in your hand. you open it. 

 dear recipient, 

 you are cordially invited to the annual midnight masquerade in three weeks. it will be hosted by eden this time — and it will be located at the marble masoleum ptolomea.

 a three week trip to the midnight masquerade will also be sponsored. we will walk you through the 9 rings, as well as eden, if time allows. we hope to see you there. 

 sincerely, 

  uriel of eden. 

so. will you go?

Love Sansevieria's name btw!!! Like, just the sound and how it's spelled and her nickname and the vibe it gives off. And then I looked her name up and SNAKE PLANTS. I love snake plants!! Oh which btw reminds me during the CB break I went inside this pet store to look at the critters bc why not and there was a boa who was SO CUTEEEEE and I was totally like DARKVINE!! except I didn't really shout, I, like, whisper-shouted, but-

ok yeah idk what the point of that story was :)

CBER / AE FORM 

NAME :  Scuttles
PRONOUNS :  eh. Anything works. Whatever's easiest.
APPEARANCE : I'm tall, with tannish skin and lots of freckles, and short hair that is naturally a dark brown but is almost always dyed one or more bright colors. I have big, feathery moth antennae and large moth wing of various shades of gray, black, and white. They look like your typical moth wings, with the little eyespots and whatnot. My eyes are an amber brown. For casual outfits, I'll typically wear black or dark gray sweatpants, cargo pants, or jeans, with a sleeveless T-shirt and a brightly colored scarf. If it's warmer out, the scarf will be of a lighter material, and thicker if it's cooler. I might also wear a sweatshirt or coat if the weather is cooler. I'll probably be wearing boots or my favorite pair of galaxy-patterned black vans high tops. One of the high tops has a neon yellow shoelace and the other one has a hot pink one. I might also wear a beanie sometimes. For formal wear, I'll wear nice-ish black cargo pants, a boring-ish white shirt, and a dramatic long overcoat that's part evening jacket and part steampunk-esque trench coat, with plenty of interesting enamel pins. And a brightly colored scarf, of course. Maybe a top hat if I'm feeling fancy. Depending on the occasion, I might wear my favorite previously mentioned high tops, or I might wear another interesting pair of high tops or shoes just to spice it up.
PERSONALITY : I'm silly, spunky, and fiercely independent. Proudly ridiculous. I like both logic and illogic, and I'm pretty outgoing but need my alone time too. I'm bold and perhaps sometimes overconfident. I have a tendency to overuse parentheses and em dashes.
LUGGAGE : Computer (with stickers on it), drawing tablet (with stickers) and stylus, phone (you guessed it–stickers), multiple sketchbooks/sketch pads of varying sizes (stickers on the cover, again), art supplies (art pencils, colored pencils, art pens, paint, paintbrushes, markers, stickers) enamel pin collection, Nintendo switch, beanies, sharpies, hair dye, two long coils of nylon rope (approved for rock climbing), a belay device (which is something you use to safely rock climb), two rock climbing harnesses (one for me and one spare, in case anybody forgot theirs (because obviously a rock climbing harness is an essential piece of luggage on any trip)), black duct tape.
FAVORITE FLOWER : Torch lilies or corpse flowers.
EDEN OR OLYMPUS :  depends on the mood I'm in.

NAME :  Fluffles
PRONOUNS : he/him
APPEARANCE :  Bright orange corn snake. Often wears a blue bandana. Might sometimes sprout arms when nobody is looking.
PERSONALITY :  He's pretty calm, and usually plays the role of my voice of reason. Not quite as ridiculous as me. He has a tendency to be rather sarcastic at times, but never fear, his sarcasm is usually directed at only me. He's cool in a tough situation. He's also rather loyal, and he'd never betray be.
LUGGAGE :  his bandana, and his snake food, tank, and other care supplies.
Are you pangolin?
