"Awwww, but it's fun."

Their horns show up slowly, fading in like a bad PowerPoint presentation effect. They aren't going to be too extra here, but come on. It can have a little fun.

"Okay then."

They nod, crossing one leg over the other to wait.

SINCLAIR FUNERAL OPEN RP

CW: death (obviously)

Lyf looked down at the coffin and the person in it. Everything was.. they wouldn't say perfect, but it was as they wanted. They put a hand on Sinclair's, uncomfortable with the stiffness, with the cold.

It wasn't fair.

It wasn't fair...

"They tried to convince me to cremate... but I know how much you hate the heat," Lyf said softly to the corpse. "Besides... you always wanted to be given back to the Earth. I hope it's kind to you." They gave a wobbly smile, trying to hold back the tears.

They turned only when they heard footsteps approach. Ah.. it was time then. "Welcome," they said, stepping aside. "Thank you for coming."

Tal is up to their usual chaos, rotating random furniture in the institute. They see someone walking over, ducking to hide under a desk.

They watch the person for a few seconds, giggling quietly in their two voices, before popping up closer to the person and taking their shadow. They turn around and run off as a cat, dragging the shadow behind them by the leg.

"Yoink!"

A neon orange worm on a string drops onto Valentine's head. Tal is crouched on the ceiling, scuttling away to be just out of sight when they look up.

Valentine picks it up, shakes it around a bit, and then glances around, trying to spy its source. No sane, living creature would come into the home of a Spiral uninvited, so this is clearly only one, or perhaps neither.

"Helloooo?" they call out. "Come out, come out, wherever you are."

Fae can't keep the laughter out of faer voice. This is going to be a fun night.

Tal still looks concerned, ears swiveling back and forth and wings flared out a little.

"Yes, it was the boy that brought me here the first time. This time I got pushed through, the door was apparently opened to here."

- @eyes-that-decieve (sorry my phone would NOT let me reblog the post anymore lol)

"And was that a choice?" it questions, so quietly it barely rustles the leaves beneath it. "Or just an action without thought, a reflex unquestioned?"

It is rambling. It will not stop itself.

[eyes-that-decieve]

Fuck you.

Fuck you.

I haven't been sleeping very well... I'm so tired. That guy with the rainbow hair came around again. They just.. stood outside my house, across the street, staring for hours.

I'm thinking it's time to move.

Tal has forgotten to keep itself out of Sight, by now. They haven't been paying attention for a while, at this point.

What was originally going to be a little crying session to cope has turned into an isolating one. Again. They're holed up under the bed, in the shape of a squirrel with their big fluffy tail wrapped around itself.

- @eyes-that-decieve

Lyf was packing up some things of Sinclair's, sniffling and doing their best to not cry again. Marius was with them, it made things easier. Still... they couldn't believe they were gone. They wiped their eyes, staring at one of the many pictures Sinclair took of them and just about everyone around them. Even some of Amelie had actually shown up pretty clear. "Why did it have to be them?" they murmured to themself.

One of the pictures fell and slid under the bed. "Shit," they mumbled.

"I've got it," Marius said, getting up from the bed and dropping to the floor, reaching for the picture. His hand brushed something fluffy and he frowned, immediately thinking it was one of the animals and grabbing it. They pulled it out and... "Did you get another weird cat?"

Lyf stared at the being. That was a.. very small weird cat. No, they knew that one. "It's a... a sq... I can't pronounce it."

[eyes-that-decieve]

This is Tal every time you close a door

Can confirm damn you

Most normal orange cat

[ericfosterpi]

You the one he was simping over in his posts?

Also thankee for making this blog more colorful, it was so boring when I was bothering him :((

(( @eyes-that-decieve ))

I am! I'm his wife, nice to meet you! Are you also clients of his? Friends? Please tell me you're friends of his.

RIGHT! I tried telling him, but NOOOOooooOOOOO what do I know?

[eyes-that-decieve]

"Dammit," Pamela curses.

Oh, well. This could easily have gotten a lot more embarrassing.

She gets up and goes to make them some breakfast. Spi can't cook, but it likes these little gestures of self-reliance. Choosing what they wear, what they eat. That matters after a long time of no choices.

"How do you like your eggs?"

@visceralfractal

"Dunno. Haven't had those in a while."

Niss shakes themselves, prompting more sleepy grumbling from Tal.

[residentsofhollowville]

There's a door creaking behind Jude, six sets of footsteps, then he's promptly gently picked up by the shoulders like a stuffed toy. Two voices ring out, greeting him in harmony.

"HIIII!¡"

- @eyes-that-decieve

He kicks and thrashes, but his feet strike nothing but scaly skin and air.

"What the - how the - put me down!"

[eyes-that-decieve]

Tal. This is a crime I know you have committed

Denied

[lyfedda]

Y ou doin g ok?¿

(( @eyes-that-decieve ))

No.

Are you okay, Tal? Where are you? Styx was very worried about you.

[eyes-that-decieve]

A flickering door is in a wall, seeming unable to decide between being covered in shifting colors and nothing. The door opens, a figure stumbling out. It seems to be in a similar state to the door itself, form flickering between covered in shadows or bright and colorless.

It glances back and forth with one blue eye on one side and a purple eye and a yellow eye on the other, before promptly collapsing onto the ground.

I have slowly been acquiring more Far Frozen yeti OCs, and I keep forgetting to post them.

These three are little frostlings, and all siblings. The first one is Sprout (she/they), the second is Fractal (he/they), and the third is Crystal (they/them). Fractal and Crystal are twins.

Trick! Bald :)
