#goodnight aaaaaaaaaaaaa why do I do this to myself

THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY ESSAY OF ALL TIME!!! THAT’S RIGHT NEXT UP IS MY BOY EXTRA!!! honestly he might have the shortest essay of them all because there’s really not much to him (THAT WILL HOPEFULLY CHANGE, KEEP IN MIND A LOTTA THIS IS JUST THE INITAL IDEAS SO THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE MY BOY EXTRA WILL GET A LOT MORE DEVELOPMENT AND PERSONALITY WHEN I GET THE CHANCE!!!)

ANYWAY!!!

I LOVE HIM OUUUGHHH (UNSURPRISINGLY) (I LOVE ALL MY OCS) (HE’S SO AWESOME) ANYWAY

Extra was screwed over from the second he was born because he had the misfortune of being the child of Pumpkin Daddy and Gourdie of all people. Yikes. The couple of all time, that’s for sure, but two hyperactive irrational fools with a debilitating fear of the passage of time might not be the best influence on a growing child. Also one of them is a literal gourd (surprisingly, not the one with gourd in their name). BUT ANYWAY despite their…shortcomings, the two actually were trying to be good parents.

Everything seemed fine at first but WHOOPS. Erm. Turns out that the whole pumpkin head disease thing is genetic! Yikes! Congratulations ma’am you’ve given birth to a beautiful gourd! But much like how it is with pumpkin daddy himself, it doesn’t really cause any health issues. It was just…bizarre. Turns out though that for younger people it’s significantly harder if not impossible to control when you go pumpkin mode, so Extra was always kinda screwed in that department. Now let me address the obvious: his stupid name. Extraordinarily. Most would think that an adverb, let alone one that’s such a mouthful, would be a terrible thing to name a child. Pumpkin daddy would disagree, unfortunately. He thought it was a good name become extra was so…extraordinary….so very extraordinarily talented…so very extraordinarily wonderful…the sentiment was nice, I guess, but. Yeahhhhhh. Not the best name. To be fair there are a bunch of other ridiculous names. Anyhoo Extraordinarily is usually just shortened to Extra, as you’ve already probably guessed.

SO Extra lived a relatively normal life for his first few years. As normal as the circumstances would allow, anyway. He was taught a lot about TBYTF and the dangers of it (or, when being taught by Gourdie, the wonders of it) and overall topics that aren’t imperative to a child’s development, but they found it necessary anyway. The child MUST know how to spot the signs that someone is in a catatonic illusion!!! What do you mean he doesn’t need to know that at 3 years old!!! He was also gifted a really horribly handmade plush from pumpkin daddy that’s the stuff of nightmares. But yeah, Extra, aside from the whole pumpkin head thing, lead a relatively normal life. It was pretty obvious right away that his personality kinda clashed with his parents, being a lot more low key and relaxed. Much more go with the flow, meanwhile pumpkin daddy was more so “I need to be the one controlling the flow or someone is going to get hurt”. But for the most part they got alone fiiiine. Normal parent child relationship stuff. Bellona would watch over him on occasion and she absolutely ADORED him he is WONDERFUL and PRECIOUS.

But then OH NO!!! here comes the BIG BAD DIVORCE (WELL TECHNICALLY THEY DIDNT GET LEGALLY DIVORCED BUT THEY SPLIT UP)!!! Yeah so uh. Pumpkin daddy and Gourdie got a divorce when Extra was like, what, around 5ish? So young enough he wasn’t absolutely devastated. He wasn’t dragged into the divorce thankfully. Bellona took care of Extra a lot while they sorted things out, and took advantage of the opportunity to use him as a test audience for her Super Wonderful Children’s Book (which as I said before was a complete and total failure). She didn’t do the best job she could’ve, because she herself was pretty strung out from not only having a job at a hospital, but also having to be the shoulder to cry on for both Gourdie and pumpkin daddy. So she wasn’t the perfect caregiver but she was…trying. Trying to cheer Extra up and also trying not to swear in front of him (challenge impossible). Anyhoo aside from that she actually did a decent job with Extra, she cheered him up a decent amount and would play games with him a lot. Especially Yahtzee. Which would lead Extra into a lifelong love of the game. She also made him a necklace of dice as a present which he wears to this day (which pumpkin daddy vehemently insists is cursed because the dice are always apparently showing the number four which is the EVIL number we can NOT have that!!!)

Aaanyhoo. As time went on, Extra became quite resentful of pumpkin daddy. Mostly in a “why would you create me, I am a GOURD why would you subject me to this fate” kinda way. Which I mean, sucks that Extra would feel that way, but that part of him is so funny to me because he gave himself daddy issues out of Nothing. He even acknowledges that his blame is misplaced and that pumpkin daddy treated him wonderfully, but ya gotta blame SOMEONE, so may as well go with the guy who passed down the damn pumpkin gene. This fella basically just created daddy issues out of nothing, gotta respect the hustle (though I mean. In all honesty he’s not wrong in feeling upset, I’d probably harbor some resentment too). Despite the overall consensus on the island that pumpkin heads are Cool and Hip and a sign of status, Extra absolutely HATED his (rightfully so, I’d say) and took to covering himself with a paper bag. Which just drew more attention to him, probably. The constant paper bag wearing ended up conducting near-constant static electricity so his hair is pretty much permanently stuck being all floaty and weird (“that’s not how science works” I KNOW). ALSO SIDE NOTE his hair is ivory because whatever color your stupid pumpkin head is decides your hair color. The more you know. But as I was saying, Extra took to covering his head in paper bags, and he ended up becoming quite the…expert at it? He developed a skill at drawing faces on them and switching them out quickly to show different expressions, at least.

Eventually he moved in with Gourdie to have as little as possible to do with pumpkin daddy. He also developed an interest in weather around this time, especially due to the widely varying weather phenomenon across the island. It was probably for the best he moved when he did though because pumpkin daddy started making his hybrids. Extra was NOT a fan of them!!! They creeped him out!!! Especially Fina!!! He did end up striking up a friendship with one of them though, albeit unknowingly. Most hybrids don’t leave the alcoves due to their sensitivity to cold temperatures, but this hybrid, The Boogeyman, was one of the few who dared to enter the real world. The boogeyman is a…strange fellow, pretty much the exact opposite of Extra, and for whatever reason was a stereotypical Canadian (nobody knows how this happened, pumpkin daddy vehemently denies doing anything to cause it). But despite their differences they became friends, and the boogeyman was also used as a sort of in-between for extra and pumpkin daddy so they could communicate without actually having to.

Extra soon moved out entirely and landed a dead end janitor job alongside the boogeyman at what used to be pumpkin daddy and Gourdie’s TBYTF-researching group, which had since changed leadership and was now the shell of a bustling business ran by the Ramsay clan. It wasn’t the ideal situation, but it paid the bills and gave him plenty of free time. He also dabbled as an amateur weatherman, getting his own block of time on air every day to do the weather reports. Alas this dream job ended up causing some problems as due to his prevalent position, he was sorta forced into communicating with pumpkin daddy to schedule things. They managed to remain somewhat cooperative, though. This didn’t last though. Extra reached out to him and offered to play an online game of Yahtzee (the only true way to bond with an estranged parent) which went well. At first. Extra apparently did not realize how…dramatic pumpkin daddy is, and pumpkin daddy went absolutely ballistic when he lost the game. To make it worse he lost by exactly four points, reinforcing his assertion that four was an unlucky number. So that attempt at reconciliation went horribly and pumpkin daddy broke his phone while raging. Oops. Things got even WORSE though because during one of the daily weather reports, Extra was CLEARLY not having a good day, and after losing his script he instead decided to do an impromptu hit piece on pumpkin daddy, calling him the worst, most offensive name imaginable (neenerhead). This became a huge scandal and it upset pumpkin daddy to the point he didn’t leave his house for a week straight (honestly it was less of an ego thing and more of a Oh No My Son Really Does Hate Me kinda thing). Gourdie described the incident as being “embarrassing as hell for both parties involved”. Extra felt bad though, realizing his outburst was a bit unjustified, and took it upon himself to rid the world of any footage of the incident. That became a huge scandal in of itself because so many people wanted to see the fabled “neenerhead tapes” and Domitone was especially upset because Extra was erasing history (unforgivable crime). The tapes did end up leaking eventually though, no footage can ever be fully lost.

The incident eventually blew over though, and things were, for the most part, settled down. He continued his weatherman work, and slowly gained a bit more control over the whole pumpkin head thing. He still insisted on the paper bag, though. He’d be invited to the harvest festival every year, something you’re more or less forced to attend, but he always came up with an excuse to avoid it. His suspicion of Fina also continued to grow. It was becoming pretty obvious to him, from the little he saw of her, that she definitely was an arm of TBYTF and was definitely a soon to be murderer. He also caught wind of Bellona’s death and was pretty upset about it. He was also getting more and more attempts at reconciliation from pumpkin daddy because by that point he’d gone full on panic mode and had to make amends with everyone because We Are Going To Die. Right before what would be the last true harvest festival, he was visited by a HORRIBLE VILE CREATURE (one of the tiny gopher pumpkin daddies) while chilling in a broom closet. He was once again offered an invitation to the harvest festival, which he again declined, though considered it for a moment. Before the HIDEOUS VILE CREATURE left, however, it informed Extra of its own suspicions with Fina, and warned him that it believed Fina may try to kill him. Extra was very distressed by this, as one would be, and decided to go warn pumpkin daddy that Hey, she is planning to kill us all, probably!

He ended up missing the harvest festival, chickening out at the last second, but was determined to go to where the negotiations were being held to inform pumpkin daddy of, well, what I just said. She is planning to kill them all, probably. Buuut things immediately went south because turns out Gourdie brought her dogs. And extra is allergic to dogs. Like, pretty damn allergic. But luckily for him Gourdie for whatever reason hoards epipens (not saying for whatever reason in the sense there’s no canon explanation, the canon explanation is literally just that she does it for no particular reason) so pumpkin daddy snatched one from her and saved Extra. Yippee. No emotional reunion because he immediately told Extra to go to the bathroom to calm down while he fought with Gourdie. Wonderful.

I’ve mentioned this section already in a separate post but I’ll go over it briefly, at this point the negotiations were supposed to go through but Where The Hell Is Pumpkin Daddy. Extra was the one who ended up finding him, but one of the head negotiators just kinda brushed him off because by that point they were having more fun starting fight clubs than actually stopping the war. Extra managed to track down Gourdie though, and explained the whole situation with Fina to him. Although she was skeptical she believed him, but refused to let him tell pumpkin daddy because “oh he’s sad enough already :(“ GREAT IDEA GOURDIE I’M SURE THATLL HAVE NO CONSEQUENCES. anyway blah blah blah, already explained this part, some vivid hallucinations of Extra getting mauled to death by Snoopy later, pumpkin daddy’s completely gone. Despite Extra’s best efforts, he never found him. And I mean, post-pumpkin daddy disappearance, Extra doesn’t do a whole lot. He probably will eventually, but like I said, this is all very not-fleshed-out. Assumedly, he just continues his work as a weatherman and does the super cool activity called “being constantly stressed out over the fact that before you could properly reconcile with a loved one they presumably died.” Fun stuff! And he reconnected with Gourdie a bit more (their relationship was never as strained but they weren’t very close either). But yeah I don’t think he does anything particularly interesting, really all he wants is a boring mundane life. Wish I could end this with some dramatic thing he does but uh. Nah he gets a somewhat happy ending (ASIDE FROM THE CRUSHING REGRET!!!), he just gets to live the rest of his life as lowkey as he wants to with no drama. So good for him I guess, one of the few main-ish characters to have a neutral ending. Everyone else is either living their best life, living their worst life, or not living at all. Tbh there’s probably a Lot I could do with extra, but I never gave him much thought. Maybe someday. If so I’ll post some updated lore. But for now that’s all.

RANDOM TRIVIA UHHHH

• he usually wears llama hair sweaters he always gets gifted from his dad. like ok that guy’s annoying, but he knits a killer sweater

• there was not one but two instances of him and pumpkin daddy getting into violent arguments over Yahtzee. Probably should’ve learned from the first time it wasn’t a good idea!!!

• He’s intersex!!

• Despite having the ability to change his name due to the common naming customs, he never actually did. Sure, the name Extra sucks, but at a certain point that’s really the only remnant of pumpkin daddy he still has so may as well keep the name (BUT IF HE WASNT SUCH A SENTIMENTAL FOOL HE WOULD BE NAMED YAHTZEE SO BAD) (DON’T LET HIM CALL HIMSELF THAT THAT’S AN EVEN WORSE NAME SOMEHOW)

• the he/they/she of all time

THAT IS ALL (UNLESS I’M FORGETTING SOMETHING IT’S LIKE MIDNIGHT)UHHHHGOODBYE

"Please don't scream I won't hurt you m'dear"

He hesitates then removes his hand.

"Who are you ?"

"I am music Man but you can call me DJ"

I am snapped out of my thoughts as she stares at me.

"Yes my little diamond?"

"Ok so one don't call me that two why was you smiling and dribbling three please sit back I'm gonna go find a hotel to stay in now."

Every corner I take I purposely speed up causing him to roll all around the back seat .As we get closer to a traffic light it turns red.

"Hahahaha perfect"I say

"Huh?"

"I break extremely hard causing him to go face first into the back of the passenger seat.

I park my car in a parking lot next to a overgrown bush.

"Diamond can I come too?"

"No you can not skinny man"

"Watch your mouth DIAMOND"

I climb out and slam the door locking him inside.

"Hi welcome to the star hotel!"

"Hi may I book a room for two weeks?"

"Of course you can have it free"

"R-really?"

"Of course it's the least I could do and you can stay as long as you want!"

The short brunette-haired lady gives me a card.

"Room 28 is free it's on the second floor"

"Thx"

When she gets there

I open the door and close it.

*Sigh*

I turn round and is face to face with DJ.

"OMFG JUST LEAVE ME THE HELL ALONE"

I climb in between his legs take my sandals off and throw them at him.He ducks causing the the black sandals to hit the door.

I throw my jacket on the floor and jump under the covers.

He walks over to me, takes out a music box and winds it up.(The song you have to listen to thought SoundCloud or Spotify sorry. Y'all those were the only options it had)

"Welp my little diamond I'll go back to car and leave you -
