#felid bittys

[vex-bittys]

Dp you have any fic recomendation about felid bitties? I've seen a lot of normal bittybones and lamia bitties, but I'm curious if there are any Felid stories? Any kind would be nice, I might not read them all, but this is also for other people as well!

*I haven't seen any stories about the Felid bitties so far! I do love a good bittybones or lamia bittybones story though. I even have my own Bittybones and Bittyswap stories in progress!

*I think it would be fun if everyone sent in recommendations for their favorite bittybones, lamia bittybones, or non-skeleton bitty stories. I could then post the list with links for everyone to enjoy! Feel free to make suggestions in the comments, reblogs, or ask box (anon is always available).

A flock of crows, part one

Behind the curtain: Wooops we had a coding glitch! So sorry, here’s the corrected version! There’s no trigger warning for this part, but there will be for the next one! Please don’t get too attached to the characters.

...

« Please don’t give me away! I’ll be a good bitty! Better! » He flails, hits the ground with his feets in his tantrum. His owner raises an eyebrow, his eyes lasting on the being, he seems to doubt... But no.

 The pet creature was a cancer since day one. To the never-ending wailing had added hidden orders, reflexions and comments... Critics. On the way he was living, his way of clothing himself, the hour he was waking up on week-ends! He had took that baby blue as a good deed, since one of his friend was moving in where they weren’t allowed. But now? This good deed had been drown by months of hard feelings about this thing, high as two berrys but so irritating. Putting a flyer down in front of the bitty, the baby blue could clearly hear his owner tell…

 « I’m bringing you where they will take care of you to your worth. » Blue was forced to take a few step back as the blow of the flyer nearly knocked him out of his feet. He bends to the paper, tries to read.

 « Beaux Cieux Breeding ? » Stutters Blue, raising a questionning face to his human.

« You’ll end your days as a stallion. » His owner giggles. « I’m nearly jealous. »

 ...

 The silence clearly didn’t came to the rendez-vous during the whole car ride. The pleading becomes thumping. Blue now yells to be heard, soiling the poor hamster cage he was carried away with tears and other colored fluids.

  « HUMAN DON’T DO THAT !! » He bawls. « THIS IS THE WORST DECISION OF YOUR LIFE !! » The said human turns higher the radio volume but the screamings won’t stop anyway. What follows of the speech is the same refrain. ‘Not that you’re used to take good decisions ! / you’re gonna regret me / I’m your bitty and I love you ! / bring me home, I know you love me too !’. When Blue ends up understanding that he won’t have any answers, his words melt into a high-pitching wailing. The crys go on and on until the car stops in front of an adorable little farm, all that picturesque. At twenty minutes from town, the air there is pur. Half-feral cats hang out in the courtyard, rubbing themselves to the human legs as he slaps close his car’s door. This one used to be brand new, once there was a time, before that Blue idiot had this idea that a turquoise color will better fit a vehicule of his ‘magnificence’... And starts to repaint it with a colored pencil. The horrid cracks on his car painting would have finished convincing the human that his choice was for the best, if he had doubted it only a little.

 « Welcome ! » A young girl, maybe forteen, comes running. Her full face and her lively eyes bring a smile to the human.

 « Thanks! Are your parents here ? » He asks, this barely audible, drown by the bitty cries that came back stronger. The girl raises her shoulders.

 « They’re busy. But they told me to take the bitty. You’re the person we had on the phone? » The human uses a small time to bring himself back together.

 « Oh. Yes. Here’s Blue. Here... » He hands the cage and the girl takes it with a whole particular caution. The human goes away, missing by a second the glance of malice living in the girl’s eyes.

 « So, Blue, we’re a lil grumpy? » She let away, gaining a truce in the cries. Blue raises his huge wet eyesockets to the teen. « Name’s Jessica and, you’ll see, you’ll have such a blast, here ! » Taking no care to the cats swarming to her feets whom were interested in the small rodent, she walks toward a small barn, a little far from the main house. Blue clumsily walks to the front of his cage, his cute lil hands holding the bars.

 « You’re my new mommy ? » He ask, a shiver in his voice. Jessica softly laughs.

 « Whatever. » She breaths, ignoring the dumb face of the bitty, falling apart to such an answer. Putting the cage to the ground, so she can push with both of her hands a door way too heavy, Blue see agglutinating around him the felides, meowing of hunger as if he was a can of tuna.

 « Er... Jessica? » Squeals the scared bitty. But nobody answers him excepted the heavy creaking of the wood door. At last, the door had given up and opens on a dumping ground drown in darkness. Blue doesn’t have any time to prepare himself before his cage is balancing again at the end of the young girl arms. She dumps it in a CLANK that can’t be unheard on something that had metal on it- another cage? Then she rubs her hands.

 « You’ll be fine, here, until the chirurgy. » Blue frozes to such speaking. Chirurgy? But wasn’t it...

 Why would he needs chirurgy?

 « I’m not ill ! » The bitty defends himself. « Chirurgy, it’s for people who’re really ill! » He whines but that does nothing if not amusing the teen. She doesn’t bother answering and goes away, having the same struggle to close the door after her. Just before the outside light dims into a stray of light, Blue has the time to see one of the cat slithers into the barn.

 « Hey ! »

 Then, the nothingness. Or it was what he belived. But as his eardrums get used to the lack of stimulis, he ends up earing way weaker sounds. The noise of one- no, hundreads of breathings, harshs, terrified, brokens. Mad laughing and wailing melted and- oh, the meowing develishly high-pitched of the cat, prowling through the aisles. The aisles... He eyesockets grows used to the darkness. There’s rows and rows... Is that cages? Blue let away a chocked breath.

 « IS THERE SOMETHING HERE? » Yells the baby blue. He stands surprised not to have any answers and insists. « Please ! » The last word, a weak pleading.

 « Shut the fuck up. » The blue’s eyesockets grows bigger.

 « LANGUAGE !! » He spats, a reflex of when he was at the adoption center. One cage down, the red eyelights of what seems to be an edgy become sharper. He stares the maybe ennemi for a time before understanding what’s in front of his eyes.

 « A baby blue. Tch. As if I needed that. » The voice sounds clear. The edgy have several months less than the baby blue.

 « A JUNIOR! ALL FOR THE BETTER! MY MAGNIFICENT EXEMPLE WILL- »

 « I don’t think that’s the time for that’. » White pupils shining in the cage in front of his calmly answer. Blue hesitates for a moment. A... Sansy ? « Just do what he says, we don’t really have the soul to have a chat. »

 « Nonsense ! » Complains the little Blue. « I just arrived and I need answers ! » Useless to say that the tiny creature is deeply insulted. « At what time do we have a snack, here ? » There’s a silence, then the frenetical laughter of the edgy. Blue frowns. Did he... Missed snack time? It was so villain to laugh at him...! « Good, and what are we doing here? » He carrys on, a little less brave. « Oh, it’s for a birthday surprise, it is it? » His excited voice suddenly slips to the idea. « We are the gifts, aren’t we? » To whom will they be gifted? To a child who would play with them all day long? To a sweet human girl who would love cuddles? Or even to a monster, Blue wasn’t difficult! As long as the person would be willing to let them sleep in the bed...

 « Fuck... » Laughs the red one. « I tell him ? »

 « No ! » Yells the sansy in a panic. « Let him in his world. For now... » It was better to keep the eyesockets closed. It will always be time to stress out to the bone later one... But the edgy didn’t seem to want to hear such an answer. With a cruel smile, he blurted out.

 « Eh, dumb-face... Look what’s over yout head! »

 « UH ?? » Blue raises his face without thinking, suddenly noticing a glimpse of silver light hanging on the ceiling.

 « It’s the ‘chirurgy chain’. » Continues the edgy, a sadistic tone ringing in his voice. « The shiny thingy, it’s a butcher hook~ >> He soft talks, exctatic, despite the whimperings of the sansy, trying his best to make him shut up. Blue’s bones grow paler as he registers the words.

 « Ha... Haha? » He answers back. « YOU GOT ME WELL, EDGY, BUT I DID NOT FALL FOR THAT! THERE’S AN END TO ALL BAD JOKES! »

Crysta’s Lamia Experience: Two comedian lamias fall in love

A visit to @vex-bittys‘ s Lamia and Felid Bitty Center has an unexpected event.   Prev AO3 (Later) 

"Hey Vex, I brought some visitors!" I wave towards the shopkeeper. Abbott (Corny) and Costello (Coral) riding together on my shoulder with little baby Marx (Pygmy) peeping and beeping in excitement, poking his head out from my hair, waggling his 'eyebrows' at Vex, an expression Costello taught him. They both appeared tired, trying to keep up with their energetic hatchling day in and out, Abbott almost seeming to be asleep with his head on Costello’s shoulder, as they both took turns using blue magic to make sure Marx didn't fall off of my head.

Hero is behind me with Munchkin hanging off his back, tail twitching as he looks around the shop for his friend. "These two wanted to check in on any others that were rescued from the collector to see how they were fairing and recovering after their rescue. I..."

I stopped mid-step as I felt a tug from the collar of my shirt. As best as I could, I glance back and see both Costello and Abbott are leaning over, Costello's mouth hanging wide open while Abbott has his arm wrapped around Costello to make sure he didn't fall off while his other hand held onto my shirt collar. I follow their gaze towards the Krait pool where a FireRing and a Krait seem to be enjoying a conversation together. I glance between the two pairs with curious interest before looking at Vex as Hero gives me a knowing look.

Their weight disappeared from my shoulder as they short-cut down to the ground to watch the two from a distance with awe struck expressions. Abbott leans over to Costello and whispers something to him. Costello nods and pretends to nervously adjust an invisible tie, never keeping his eye-lights off the pair by the pool. Abbott, blushed and smiled with a nod, a bit of a longing gleam in his eye-light as he joined Costello in watching the two Lamias interact.

I ease Marx out of my hair, tickling him under his chin as I approach Vex, the little Pygmy peeping excitedly at her, and whisper, “Are you seeing the same thing I’m seeing?”

(Well, I wanted to send this as an ask, but at last, it was too long… so a post it shall be. So Yes, Costello and Abbott are quite smitten by the FireRing and Krait. Love at first sight. They are already used to being in a poly relationship with their past Pygmy lover. Vex, please take your time replying, I don’t mind waiting if you need it. Been meaning to send this in for a while, figured it was time. Thank You!)

[vex-bittys]

*I am, in fact, working on these! I’m picking the breeds and planning the characteristics. Once that is complete, I will be getting some commissioned art from @redkammy​ (a very talented artist) for the bios! Here’s a sneak peek at some of the cat breeds that I will be using:

UT!Undyne: Russian Blue (Russyne)

UT!Alphys: Munchkin (Alphkin)

US!Undyne: Sphynx Cat (Undynx)

US!Alphys: Bengal Cat (Benphys)

UF!Undyne: Abyssinian (Abyssine)

UF!Alphys: Turkish Angora (Alphora)

SF!Undyne: Siamese (Siamyne)

SF!Alphys: Savannah Cat (Alphannah)

*These bitties, called Felid bitties, will resemble a “cattaur” with an Alphys or Undyne torso and a cat lower body. They will only come in one size: kitten sized! This means that they will stand about 4 inches tall at the cat shoulder with an overall height of about 7 inches.

Do you know anyone who offers kitty bitties?

Dotchi: Kitty Bitties? Like bitties that are part cat? Or actually bitty kitties? 

‘Cause bitties that are part cat is @meadowlarkkitties specialty from what I see! @vex-bittys did mention she might make part cat bitties of Undyne and Alphys if those are the ones you want instead of the bone brothers, but she did say she might take a while on those!

[vex-bittys]

Fire, Bon, and Ora all show up to the shop, nail tools in hand. Fire let out a friendly bellow. “Hey y’all! Free manicures happening in the meet n greet area! We can do some basic nail art too!”

Fire’s king, Tyr, came in after, carting a huge box of nail polishes, tools, and equipment. “Yesss. Nail art.” He didn’t seem thrilled, more resigned, but he would always support his squish.

Fire found a place to plug in her gel nail light and sat next to it, making sure there was somewhere corals could sit and not watch at all. After all, corals couldn’t enjoy things like this, it wasn’t in their nature. As soon as her cousin was sitting, she snagged Ora’s hand and started painting her nails with the colors of a coral’s tail, then started adding a subtle scale pattern with a piece of a produce bag that looked like miniature fishnets. There were plenty of bitty sized fake nails for anyone who wanted to try their hand at either having them painted or doing it themselves. They were more than happy to do the same thing again on the felid level if the felids didn’t want to join the lamia.

~ In response to this ask

*Usually, the Felids stay in their upstairs area, preferring the customized environment to the lamia adoption area downstairs, but today is an exception. Even Edgar has seen fit to lead a neat down row of hatchlings from the nursery to observe the nail art station. Some of the older hatchlings are even waiting their turn to try some nail art.

*Glitter and rhinestones abound as Papythons, Mambas, and Abyssines design their signature looks. A few Cornies have rolled over to model different style for those who aren't sure what will look best and end up wearing a rather eclectic collection of nails, polishes and gels, and decorations. Corals are totally not crowded around watching and sneaking rhinestones into their pockets and gel onto their nails. No sir. They were just slithering by!

*The scale pattern using the fishnet bag is a big hit, and if fishnet bags dipped in golds, silvers, and iridescent polishes happen to dab along Coral fingertips? Well, that's purely by accident! The Mambas dabbing gold scale patterns onto their bodies is extremely on purpose though. Soon enough, Edgar has to escort the hatchlings back to the nursery, borrowing a very gentle polish remover from Fire for some overzealous little ones who proudly wear large nail paint handprints on their faces.

[vex-bittys]

Hi, I was wondering if I could get a match up. Either Lamia or Felid I don't mind since I love both. I'm pretty shy and I have social anxiety. I can come off as quiet and reserved when I first meet people, due to trust issues. I'm writer and I love playing video games or solving word puzzles and reading, often while listening to music. I don't feel comfrotable being touched by people I don't know, but with the ones I trust I'm often super affectionate. Thank you~ 🦋

My recommendations for you are:

Alphkin (UT!Alphys x Munchkin): If you're looking for a Felid who isn't extremely boisterous, an Alphkin might work for you. Alphkin is a bit shy herself, but once trust is built, she's very affectionate. Alphkin is very clever and loves challenging puzzles, including word puzzles. Her favorite video games are ones with interesting storylines!

Honey Bo (US!Papyrus x Boa Constrictor): Honey Bo's need personal space and time to build trust, so they understand a person who is reserved and doesn't want to be touched right away. Honey Bos are great listeners, so feel free to bounce writing ideas off of him. He will also make you playlists for al of your activities!

Chain (SF!Papyrus x Eastern King Snake): Chains form a unique SOULbond with their adopters. A Chain can sense strong emotions from his bonded adopter, and this helps him understand you better. A Chain is very laidback and enjoys video games or just spending time relaxing with his adopter. He wants them to be happy and will always respect boundaries.

*Let me know if you'd like an adoption scenario.

[vex-bittys]

sorry if this was asked before or/and if its dumb, is it possible for your bittys to be trans or non-binary?

(I don’t mind if a question comes up more than once. That just means that it is a topic that people find important! And I don’t consider any questions to be dumb unless the person is deliberately trying to be. You can’t get answers if you don’t ask questions, so questions aren’t dumb!)

*YES! Though I refer to the lamias with he/him pronouns and the felids with she/her pronouns, once you adopt the bitty, you can imagine them however you want. This includes being trans or non-binary! 

*The lamias especially don’t have any gender identifying “signs,” so it really depends on how they identify more than any physical feature of their bodies. A lamia or felid will communicate their gender identity to you if necessary to make sure there aren’t any misunderstandings. If you’re looking for a male lamia, it would be very awkward to adopt one who identifies as female.

[vex-bittys]

*There is excitement at the shop since you called ahead about bringing food over. Lamias of all types and sizes, and even the Felid bitties (who have happily settled into their upstairs habitat) are eager to try some of the foods. As soon as you arrive, you see eager faces peering out the window.

*The stir fry is a huge success. The lamias and felids both enjoy the teriyaki flavors, and some of the shier felids and lamias are able to take some food on a stick back to their nests or dens.

*Edgar has set up a little picnic party for the hatchlings and a few new felid kittens who have recently appeared. The little ones are especially excited about the pancakes and jams, and soon every single little face (and several little bodies) are smeared with sticky sweetness.

*Looks like the babies are due for an impromptu bathtime when they get back to the nursery!

[Lamia-Bitty Daily life!10]

Hello my Lamia lovers how are all of you, good I hope! Yeah my last post I told you of a harrowing experience with a entitled mother trying to take Chip. Well as I like to do I’ll entertain you with a little sweetness to counterbalance the bitter taste of human behavior.

Now I may have to pause a few times cause I’m actually cooking as I’m typing this.

What am I cooking? Well I’m making something for the Lamias’ over at Vex’s shop, a way of saying thank you for all the kindness she provides for both Lamias and other creatures.

[Going back to chop some stuff, and fry some meat an fish]

I asked Vex what would be the best things to bring to the shop, she instructed me on things that are not too spicy or too sweet. So I’m making a shrimp and beef stir-fry, I’m using teriyaki sauce to flavor it.

Dante is having a blast, he’s cooking the beef and shrimp right now while I’m handling the veggies.

Chip is......currently laying in the middle of the kitchen, being a trip hazard. Though I’d say he’s acting like bread cause he’s ‘loaf’ing around.

[he’s giving me a big grin now and pointing to the butter, saying I’m that cause I’m on a roll XD]

.....

Ok we just finished the stir-fry, a little set back though cause we now have a bunch of left over meat and shrimp.

AND leave it to my Dante to figure out how to fix it, he got out some bamboo sticks bought on a whim once and started making teriyaki beef an grilled shrimp all on the skewers. While he did that I went to work on a little surprise for dessert, I got a mini pancake/mini waffle iron to make for our desserts.

Now near where I live there’s a farmers market an I decided to pop down there real quick to get something for the special desserts. I got plenty of fresh fruit but the real fun bit is the homemade Jams, Preserves and Jellies I got.

I got Strawberry rhubarb jam, Blueberry Jam, BlackBerry Perserves, Pear jelly, Apricot jelly, Apple preserves, orange blossom honey and few more Apple related things like Jelly and of course Apple Butter.

The desserts I’m making are mini pancakes an mini waffles with a nice smear of their choice of condiment.

.........

Sorry for that pause, the boys an I were just packing up the food and the mini hot iron. As for drinks I’m bringing just juice like cranberry, pomegranate and grape, all low to no sugar, can’t have Pygmy’s and Mamba’s going crazy on us.

So Vex on the way with some Yummy stuff for the cuties!

I’ll keep you posted for more cooking stuff with Dante an I

[going to @vex-bittys shop!]

[vex-bittys]

Which bitties, lamia and felids alike, like nail art the best?

*The winners for most love of nail art goes to:

Corals and Abyssines!

*Corals love the texture of nail polishes and gels. They love the colors. The love the little embellishments you can add, and oh man, the stim videos of people creating that nail art? Absolute peak serotonin hours for a Coral. You will never catch them watching the videos. They will deny this love, but if you come home with some freshly done nail art, a Coral will find a reason to touch!

*Abyssines may be tough as nails... but they also like having pretty nails. Abyssine believes that there’s no reason a powerful female can’t be pretty or like dainty things. Plus you could get your nails filed to points and painted to look like they’re all bloody from battle!

*So how do the rest of the bitties feel about nail art?

Like it because fashion statement: Papython, Mamba, Alphkin (gets a full SanRio set), Undynx, Alphora

Too lazy to try it, but thinks it’s pretty: Corny, Honey Bo

Pretty indifferent to it (it’s just fingernails?): Pygmy, Krait, Siamyne

Thinks it’s a bit impractical: King, Chain, Russyne, Benphys, Alphannah

Avoids it because the materials are flammable and he is literally fire: FireRing

**NOTE: Please send asks for the felids and lamias separately as it can be hard to write answers for all of them (18 bitties!) in one post!

[vex-bittys]

I took the match-up quiz, I would like to adopt a Chain Lamia bitty. I have a five others including bittys from @service-bittys-and-flashfiction

If that is okay? May I adopt one?

*The Chain stretched languidly, then rolled onto his back to let the sunlight streaming through the large window warm his tummy scales. Other Chains were always so eager to set out on journeys to find their SOULbonds, but not him. He knew that if he was patient, the right person would come to him, and lately that patience started paying off.

*He noticed you the first time you walked in front of the window of the Lamia (and Felid) Bittybones Adoption Center. You stopped and read the small sign advertising the online matchup form, fiddled with you phone, and, when he curiously peeked, matched with a Chain. His SOUL did a little flip. He heard your SOUL's song even through the pane of glass. It fascinated him, but you didn't enter the shop. The Chain had a feeling that, like him, you weren't quite ready yet. He'd been patient before. He could be patient again.

*It wasn't long before he saw you again. This time you entered the shop and headed for the front desk. He slithered in that direction too, drawn by the sound of your SOUL. The song was complex, like several different songs that overlapped on the same beat- a beat that matched his SOUL. When you asked to adopt Chain, he spoke up. "Me," he said simply. You locked eye(light)s with him for a long moment before nodding. You must have felt it too! He waited, still patiently, while you filled out the paperwork.

[vex-bittys]

Just here to ask if I could adopt a Krait Bitty, I accidentally sent this message to someone completely different initially whoops!

(It’s ok!)

*The Kraits seem to be having some sort of pool party today. Every Krait in the shop is in the play pools, and they are having a blast! Kraits dive. Kraits do flips. Kraits do complex synchronized swimming. Kraits splash and chase. Kraits smile and laugh. It would be a perfect time for a potential adopter to find the Krait of their dreams.

*You've come to the Lamia (and Felid) Bittybones Adoption Center to find the Krait of your dreams. You follow the sounds of splashing and giggles to the back of the shop, where you find the play pools filled with joyful striped lamias. They see you watching them and immediately begin performing aquatic feats to make you smile.

*The Kraits doing choreography begin a new routine. During the routine, they lift a fake clam shell out of the water. The shell opens, revealing a very handsome Krait. The Krait does a spectacular high-dive and the group finishes their routine with the clam shell Krait as the obvious star.

*You know you want to adopt the talented Krait, but you also realize that you didn't bring anything for the little guy to stow away in! Thankfully, Vex anticipated such possible issues and has provided an array of canvas bags near the Krait pools. You take a bag and casually place it near your feet. While you pretend not to pay attention, the synchronized swimmer Kraits help their friend settle into the tote bag... fake clam shell and all!

[vex-bittys]

Heya i was wondering if you could write a fic of me adopting a dread mainly because i love ur AU and nightmare is one of my comfort characters its okay if ur busy just take ur time no rush.

*Unfortunately, these are not lamia types that I do adoptions for. I believe the creator of these lamias is no longer doing adoption scenarios, but stated that people could write, draw, or imagine their own adoption scenarios.

*I really only do adoptions for the lamia types offered here and the felid bitties. You can check out the types that are available in the pinned post. I do occasionally write other adoptions for the original and yanderetale bittybones since the creators gave express permission for it, but that's something that has to be discussed beforehand.

[vex-bittys]

walks in with a tinx on their shoulder, absolutely thrilled to be there.

"Hello! I came here to ask if Soda Pop, a honey bo, was still up for adoption? A friend mentioned him."

"Pop pop new frends!" The tinx all but purred.

"Also, I've come to check for any chains that might want to come along? No pressure on them"

(I hope I did this right)

*Your visit to the Lamia (and Felid) Bittybones Adoption Center is a little bit different than most. You'd been talking with Miss Vex about the possibility of adopting a full-sized Honey Bo named Sodapop, and she thinks he's finally ready to be placed in a new home. She's been showing him your messages, and he is looking forward to your visit and possible adoption.

*You're nervous about introducing Sodapop to your energetic Tinx, and it turns out Sodapop is a bit nervous as well. He's made a friend in the shop that he doesn't want to leave behind. You and Sodapop head to the meet and greet room to relax on some beanbag chairs and talk. You show Sodapop your drawing tablet, and he watches as you begin to sketch him while Tinx explores his hoodie pocket. You're so distracted by your artwork that you don't notice Sodapop subtly nodding towards you.

*Being a Chain isn't easy. You spend your life looking for that oh-so-perfect SOUL bond, then hope that the person with the compatible SOUL wants to bond with you. That might not be a problem for most charming Chains, but this Chain hatched a bit different. The very end of his tail is curled into a little circle, and he's worried that nobody will want to SOULbond with a weird Chain.

*The Chain grew up around Sodapop, and the pair of lamias have become close friends. Sodapop's potential adopter even has a compatible SOUL! The Chain is just worried that Sodapop's new owner won't want him when they see his tail. The Chain is so preoccupied that he doesn't notice you noticing him. You've felt the tug on your SOUL since you entered the shop, and you're curious about the mystery Chain who hasn't made an appearance yet.

*Exasperated, Sodapop slithers off of his beanbag and goes to collect his friend. The Chain shouldn't have worried. You reach out to him immediately with only a glance at his odd tail. His skeletal phalanges touch yours, and the bond settles. Sodapop breathes a sigh of relief, and Tinx chirps out: "Two frends!!" Two friends for your Tinx, and two new lamia bitties for you.

[vex-bittys]

Could Char please get a Corny and a full sized Chain?

*Char thought today would be a good self-esteem day, but the longer she's in public, the more self-conscious she begins to feel. Today is an important day; she's finally going to adopt some lamia bitties ... but there's a nagging doubt in her mind that the lamias might be put off by her scarred appearance. She approaches the desk where a Corny perches atop a stack of papers, thinking that perhaps some self-deprecating jokes might be just the thing to put her mind at ease.

*"Any lamias here interested in damaged goods?" she starts, but the Corny makes his own joke before she can say anything else. "damaged goods are fine; it's damaged bads we dislike," he comments with a cheeky wink. With a blip, he teleports to a perch on top of her head, rolling himself in her curly hair like a very unnecessary curler. He can feel the smile and laughter as it vibrates through her body.

*He'd been reading and re-reading a matchup request for a person named Char, and he's sure this is her. She definitely needs a Corny in her life, and he thinks he fits her needs. He launches another pun to further test their compatibility. "how does the rabbi make coffee?" he asks, and Char calls out what she thinks is the answer: "He-brews it!" but the Corny gives his own deadpan answer that has her good eye tearing up with mirth. "nah, he's a busy guy, he gets it at Star-(of David)-bucks."

*The Chain behind the front desk can't wait another moment. His Corny friend wanted to meet Char first, so he agreed to wait. He's done waiting though. He wants to tell Char just how beautiful her SOUL song is to him. He pops up from behind the desk, startling her, but she doesn't stay startled.
