[ask-october-fox]

You all are so kind for checking in on me, even when I have only been back for a couple of days! Now how about I return the favor, and you tell me about your goings on, hm?

~Headcannon reaction~

When a Vex remembers their life was like when they were alive clearly, they can do more than the basic Vex...

I.E. they can speak, think, and act with compassion and sadness... use stronger magics...

BUT they are still little gremlins deep down and will still behave with malice at times...

( I would do Alliys too, but I figured one headcannon at a time... ^_^; )

[ Past Wounds Arc - Peaceful Kingdom]

- - -

All seems well in the kingdom on a sunny day. New faces have arrived for visits and leisure, and current residents seem to be welcoming those who are here for the first time. All seems peaceful.

A rumbling in the distance, however, seems to say otherwise, completely missed by the citizens of the kingdom...

[ Featuring Wanda and Stella of @wanda-the-hungry-warden and Mason and Orchid of @orchid-151

I'm so sorry it's been so long since I've posted, guys! I've been so busy looking for a new job since I need better than mu current one, and I've been trying to take care of myself.

But! I'm feeling better, and Angel and I have a little something planned here... >:3c]

[the-child-ender]

Has finding food been a problem for you? Are you keeping yourself nourished?

Almie sat pondering away, wondering if this is worth it...

Hunger twisted at her tummy... She's not used to finding food in the Nether. Preferring the Overworld's options.

While the mushrooms of the Nether is safe to ate, taught by her Father, she still didn't like it. The texture, the lack of flavor, the weird after taste... Almie wishesd with all of her little heart that this shroom is transformed into something else...

Quiet frankly, everything else will do! Bread, Overworld fruits, or the kills her haunting members provides. Alas, Almie does not have the power of wish making and this shroom is all that she can find. She needs to recover faster... Almie never liked the Nether.

Almie will eat the mushroom...

[ask-wretched]

Just curious, can you smell the difference between Villagers and Illagers? Does the scent change if an Illager lives with villagers for a long time?

(I know he is going to be a jacka$$... Just asking...)

“Yeah, it’s pretty easy for someone with a sniffer as strong as mine ‘ta tell a difference. Sure, they’ll smell like a weird mixture of the two, but there ain’t no maskin’ that stench.”

@orchid-151 – Starter.

      Mist billowed from the Warden’s snout as he pushed it upward to sniff at his surroundings. Having walked for miles with very ill preparation for such a journey left him fatigued and incredibly parched, so the distant aroma of ripening crops and fresh well-water beckoned him forth. Normally Wretched refused to go anywhere near villages if he couldn’t do so without being detected, but this time he just didn’t care. If troubled stirred, then so be it; at least his belly would be full.

     The delicate foliage and leaf litter crunched loudly beneath the behemoth’s thunderous footsteps as he closed in on the village. Clearly, he was not trying to be sneaky—as if something so big even could—as he breached the perimeter. Fruitful gardens with their array of root vegetables and wheat called to him, but he ignored them for now and tried to focus on navigating to the well.

     Upon being noticed Wretched’s grip squeezed around the gnarled handle of his axe, yet it remained lax at his side… for now. 

     “Don’t go an’ make this difficult,” he growled aloud. “Ain’t no need for a panic, or drama, or anythin’ else you damned villagers are good at stirrin’ up.”

[raylans-diary-logs]

What.... Exactly happens at night? Anything scary comes at night or...

RAYLAN: Oh man, aside from hardly seeing anything beyond whatever my torches and lanterns can reach?

RAYLAN: There’s these scary dark shapes that float in the sky that shoot BLUE FRICKIN’ LIGHTNING!! And GOD do I get WAYY too close every time I encounter ‘em!!

RAYLAN: And then there’s these spooky birds and plants that shoot some sorta poison?? LIKE HELL I’M STICKING AROUND TO FIND OUT!!

RAYLAN: Overall?? I just stick to the extra houses or attempt to build my own shelther to hide away from all the nasties.

RAYLAN: Better to make progress on foot in the morning anyways, y’know, when I can actually see a couple feet ahead of me!!

《Mun talking》

I honestly have no idea where to start, I just started following you last year, but your yearly visit has me all inspired to do my own event in October~

I guess I can say after your last visit, I had gotten me a better paying job (only slightly more pay than my old one). I was finally able to pay for my own ride and have been able to spoil my children some~ you might see my picture again if they find out about you, wanting to ask so many questions 😋 but that's children for you, they get exited about the littlest things~ I was even able to plan ahead for Halloween this year for them~

Truly, I have more than enough positivity to share thanks to them~

+🍎🍎🍎🍏 (+golden apple) [no emoji for the last one :( ...]

Well hello there! I am glad that you are getting a chance to join me again! Even more so to know that I am helping to inspire new celebrations of the Best Holiday Ever ™️ Congratulations on the better pay of a new job! Thats always quite nice im sure! By all means I'll do my best to answer any questions that your children may have, they are so curious after all! I am looking to forward to hearing about how your Halloween celebration goes this year! 🍎

Aye, first one! Cheers!]]

👌- [Exploring a PLATONIC relationship]

[ Sol ]

.Sol is used to be solitary for a loong time now and the concept of friendship still feels foreign to him. It's a little weird to him but he's making an effort to understand it better as of late. Means, them becoming friends isn't impossible after all!

.People (humans, villagers and illagers alike) tend to accuse him to bring bad omens, disasters, bad luck and simply death itself, if he even so came near a settlement. Brines [Herobrine] are largely seen as dangerous and all powerful beings, so he simply expects people to be scared and act irrational just spotting him. In any case the usual folk isn't too happy to see him and likewise he isn't too enthusiastic to run into strangers either. Unless he wants to make a scene on purpose because he's bored, caving in on the expectiations put on him.

.Orchid being a friendly illager, though practically raised by villagers, would make him ponder just a bit and distract him a little from his otherwise usual fight or flight response. Anything out of the ordinary- like peoples behaviour being so different from what he'd assume from them- make him halt in his tracks and curiosity takes over. He'll overthink for a while. That can start up a conversation as he ponders and might be inclined to ask questions on the hows and whys.

.Maybe they can bond little over how people assume bad things about them, just because of what they are. Hope she doesn't mind him following her for a while as he tends to when he's mildly interested in someones story.

.Sol will make snarky and grumpy remarks and likely mess with her, but has no malicious intent at the end of the day. Kindness and general hospitality towards him usually takes him aback, but they could genuinelly be chill with each other.

[ Lune ]

.She is by far easier to befriend and appears more cheerful with a spring in her step, though looks can be decieving.

.There would be interest in Orchid as Lune probably never ran into a non-hostile illager. Not quite with an occupation like this. She'd think Orchid is someone special. Some rare NPC! She wouldn't pass up on the chance to get on good terms with a special mob.

.She might appear like a bipedal sheep in a pink apron, but she will do and try anything to know more about Orchid and gain trust in hopes to unlock some rare loot or something. If she ever catches wind of her ability to create Notch god apples, then surely she'll want to have some of that.

.Lune tends to be relentless in her efforts. Though her motives of building up trust doesn't spark the proper idea of friendship, she wouldn't dare hurt or upset her.

.Eventually she'll drop the player-driven urge to yearn for loot and collectibles around Orchid and would be fine just chilling or trading things each found on their travels. Funnily enough, Orchid could mutter about needing something and the player sheep would just assume it's a quest and fetch it for her. Pf.

.Maybe not exactly a friendship, but it can be benefitial for both. In Lunes eyes Orchid is a unique NPC and worth protecting and questing for. P:

Gray. Lighter grays are often thought of as more feminine while darker grays more masculine. Gray is considered by many to be a neutral colour; the perfect balance between light and dark / good and evil. Pop up the lighter grays and add a little shine to it, and thought immediately turns to silver, which correlates to wealth.
