Shinrin bent down to the ground, his big eyes milimetres away from a little green clover growing in the lawn.
"Ahhh it's so soft!" cried Amie excitedly as she lifted up her dress and kicked off her shoes, running across the grass happily. Aura followed her, picking up the delicate slippers and holding them for her patiently.
Willa was still swaying gently in the breeze. "We must of~" she sighed peacefully, her eyes sparkling. "It must be the power of a Forest Guardian and Dryad coming together, catalysed by the energy of you three. Plants need to be loved and cherished to thrive, after all~"
you spend some time evaluating this little niche you'd set camp in the night before. You decide, with the nature here, it might be a good place to set up home.
You leave your Misfits to celebrate for the time being and head over to the Goblin's Hut, introducing yourself as his new neighbour.
He rubs his chin as he rocks backwards and forewards in his old rocking chair.
"Intrestin', never heard of a bunch of Misfits settling down in these lands. Mostly goblins and the like, or lost critters dancing about the place. There aint much rain or sun here, and it can be a little dangerous at times, but theres always an adventure to be had and strange things await you out in these lands. Even goblin kin aint never explored all of it." As a show of good faith you buy a few new bottles and head back towards home. Butterflies rose in your chest at the word - home. It didn't look like much yet, but you were sure the five of you could build a wonderful place to live.
You suddenly stop, your thoughts cut short, one foot still lifted off the ground. The feeling was more familliar now, and you turned to follow your gut.
Two Misfits in the clearing caught your eye this time; at completely seperate sides to each other. Both were resting in the shade, but at opposite ends of the clearing. One was a woman, looking quite fearsome and resolute. The other a relatively lithe man who seemed a little mysterious.
You scratch your head and sit down on the ground. Perhaps Shinrin would come to check up on you soon, and the pair of you might be able to bring these new companions back with you.

you climb to the top of the pile of Lost Things and train with Shad for a little while. He doesn't talk much, but you can see he is fully aware of everything happening around him at all times. Even when his eyes were closed. Come late morning, the two of you return to the ground. You stop by the Goblin's shack and buy a shocking blue bottle. It tingles a little as you hold it in your hands. You pull out the previous bottle you purchased, and decide to use it on Shad...

"Boar?"asked Baird, staring at you suspiciously. He followed your gaze up to his hat, and slowly removed it from his head, bringing it down to eye height. The boar, which had previously been very very quiet - and somehow miraculously stayed on Baird's hat through the adventure - began to swish it's tail happily and sniff loudly.
Baird stared. His eyes narrowed. "This little thing? This isn't a boar, it's a snack at best. The thing's the same size as my hand!" he grinned, flashing his teeth brightly, opening his mouth...
The boar squealed, shocked that it's master was not as kind as he thought. He lept off the hat and ran for his life around the boat. Baird roared with laughter which brought a sleepy Puuyo, a sickly looking Isobelle and a still-angry Reina out from inside the ship.
"Catch that pig!" roared Baird as he dashed after the little thing. Puuyo, curious, followed at a leisurely pace. You think Isobelle was still a little disorientated, but she came to stand beside you and watch the fiasco as it happened.
Reina looked unimpressed.
The air was filled with the sound of coughing and spluttering. You turn, just in time to look on in surprise at the mailbox, spitting out the order you filed when you arrived.

You turn and start walking back to the clearing, Toddle walking beside you with an unnecessary low gait, his arms dragging beside him as if he was trying to walk down some stairs. By the time you'd arrived at the clearing, he'd gotten bored of that and instead started walking like a gorilla, leaving a trail of popcorn behind him.
You pause over a girl about the age of seven. She was curled up into a ball, her hands pressed up against her face, her hair obscuring most of her expression from view. You couldn't help getting the feeling that this was a very delicate child, and decide to sit down quietly beside her.
"ooooh, a child?" whispered Toddle from beside you, his eyes twinkling. No doubt he really liked the idea of having an excuse next time he did something silly or fun. You pat the ground next to you and he flops down, keeping a watchful eye on her.
You press your finger to your lips and smile. "Her names Agalia." you explain. Knowing that Toddle would usually get bored and start playing games when left to sit for a long time, you offer to let him go grab you a bottle from the goblin to keep him busy. To your surprise he refuses your offer. You pop over to the goblin's shack, who smiles at you with a toothy grin and nods his head to his wares.
"Hey there! So nice to see the two of you back to visit. Hope that one's been keeping out of trouble. Sure it's never a bore around with him though - anyway - heres our new bottles in, take a look."
You pick up a bottle that you'd mistaken for a candle at first. The wax on the outside peels off in your hands, and you can see that there is indeed a bottle within. Heading back over to Toddle, you are surprised to see he has been very dutifully watching over Agalia while you were gone.
Well, he offered you a box of popcorn. "I love his movie! The next part's the best bit." he whispered to you.

The cool ether air is refreshing, and you take in a deep breath as you arrive at the clearing. Piles of Lost Things line the edges, reaching high into the sky that swirled with all the colours of the rainbow. You walk past the sleeping bodies of all sorts of different creatures and people - robots, mushroom men, valkyries. You wonder about their stories, but are strangely not worried about them. There is an enchantment on this place, one you could feel right in your bones. Goblin magic protected theese people, as they awaited those that would come take them from this place.
Right in the centre of this clearing, sitting in a patch of light, were two young children sleeping deeply. One was a boy who could not have been older then four, another a determined looking girl who looked around eight.
"Recognise them?" the goblin asks you with a nod, and you realise you already know who they are: Blink and Chocco. "They've been waiting for you. Here, com with me and you can buy some presents for 'em." he takes you over to a small, rickety stall, similar to one you might see at a carnival or farmers market. Lining the shelves are lots of unusual bottles, each glowing with a strange light from within them. You pick out two that take your fancy - a feathery bottle that seems fierce and strong, and a bottle made of deliate paper, beautifully folded. You return to your Misfits, treasure in hand, and await their awakening.

Cindy flicked her fringe out of her eyes. "The Imagiplex? That's cool. I know the way, guys, follow me. You pick up a few more bottles on the way out and the four of you depart the clearing. As you walk through the Land of Lost Things, it slowly begins to get foggy, until you are standing in the middle of a sprawling plains. Beside you to your left you can see the building known as the Lover's Labyrinth. Cindy nods to the horizon. "We should hit it if we keep walking this way. It's a bit of a walk, but I reaaally like it there." Izzy was picking daisies nearby, "I think she will, too. Children always love it there."

You could feel yourself being pulled back into that strange dreamtime world. This time, the air smelt sweet and smoke billowed about you. Things seemed a little clearer, although you still felt floaty, like air.
"This should help ground you a little while your at my store." said a gravelly voice you couldn't place. In front of you glittered the many different bottles, this time different from your last visit. One in particular catches your eye. "Here, let me get that for you."

Diaval's forked tongue darted out, and suddenly you felt something cold running up your cheek. A shudder ran down your spine and you frowned. You could swear Diaval's eyes held a glint of mischievous glee in them, before he closed them shut and all you could see were the dark clouds, billowing out from under the wheelbarrow.
Not even, you thought, he was going to take a while to live this down. Probably longer, if Bas decided he wanted to tease him some more...
Master Tizzlewhick's gaze fell on the lovely Aendy. "Sister?" he exclaimed, wrinkling his nose. "Ew! All sister's do is yell at you and stamp their feet and get in the way of science. Still, maybe a younger one's easier."he muttered with a huff, crossing his arms accusingly. Aendy's bright, happy expression fell to a pout. You could tell she was really excited about having a sibling. She was about three quarters of Tizzlewhick's height, but she strode right up to him and looked him dead in the eye.
They weighed each other up.
"Hm!" exclaimed Aendy after a while, and she turned on her heels and walked to stand beside you. She refused to look at him.
You scratch your head, but decide that they're just being kids, and would probably work things out with a little encouragement sooner or later. You decide now was the best time to set off, so you have one last stop at the goblin's stall before leaving the clearing and the Land of Lost hings altogether.
Bas offers to push the now empty wheelbarrow, and you can hear a quiet hiss from under it at the idea.

The Land of Lost Things was an unusual place indeed. You step across the clearing, the ether storms raging above, but strangely their influence didn't stretch down here to the ground. Around you lay the sleeping bodies of many different people from all different walks of life, and you wondered about the tales they had to tell.
One in particular took your eye; a young poised women who you recognised as Livessa. You stared at her for a while, and as you looked on, you could swear colour was starting to return to her cheeks. It was like your recognition of her had triggered her awakening.
"Welcome, welcome!" called a voice from beside you, and the goblin led you to his stall. "We have something for everybody, here. Take your pick."
You pick out your chosen bottles and head back to the sleeping lady. You settle down and resolve to watch over her through the night.

It seemed your Misfits had fallen into their own roles since the house had gone up. Airheart was a bit like a bustling mother hen, always making sure that everyone was looked after and remembered to eat. She was still a little formal and didn't know how to go about playing with Bolts and Wylde, but they found ways to amuse themselves, and Wylde had certainly taken a liking to Seven, even if he did tend to chew on her arm. Not that she minded much, she seemed delighted to have people to play with. She was, after all, very doll like, and you wondered how she'd ended up in the Land of Lost Things in the first place.
Bolts, it seemed, had taken a shining interest in MARK-12, who wasn't quite sure how to take it. It seemed Bolt's recognised that MARK-12 was in some way mechanical, and he really seemed to look up to him. Still, MARK-12 was always busy exploring the Mechnical Graveyard and bringing back old parts to use for furnishing the house. Bolts was very good at melding things together, and it seemed he had some sort of blowtorch ability. A cap would come off his index finger and erupt into flame.
MARK-12 would always be sure to be very far away when it happened.
All in all, as you gathered up your Misfits to discuss the issue of names, you couldn't help but feel like this place was slowly becoming homely. Even the mailbox seemed to be settling in nicely, for sometimes it liked to guess at what sort of bottles you planned on ordering. When the last catalogue came through, some of the bottles had already been highlighted in cherry-red ink. You smiled and patted the mailbox, agreeing with at least some of it's choices.
Yeah, this world was really wierd. You wondered what adventures lay in store for you now that you had a place to live with your Misfits.

sorry for the lateness of my post, I had a very busy week ^^ I applied for an apprenticeship in graphic design that I really wanted and they accepted the application. I should be starting late next week or monday the week after, so if posts get a bit frazzled while I get used to the hours, that's why. Don't worry though, Misfits will be continuing on as usual. Hopefully my art quality should improve during the placement too, particularly landscapes ;D
Sorry Tangle, Morro has already been adopted. In future, I will write on the front page when a Misfit has been adopted, just so people are aware before I make a post. When I started the thread I'd usually respond really quickly when someone adopted a Misfit so I didn't think about it at the time, but I think it's a bit more needed now. Sorry again to you and Umbrah, I promise it'll be more easy to tell in future!
No worries Sparrowflight! Please don't feel guilty for dong this out of character. That's actually how I assumed people would play origionally, it was just a pleasant surprise when people joined in with me. What is more important is that you are having fun, so please don't pressure yourself to make posts :3
Also, if we had a Wishfit week, each Wishfit would be reserved for the person who wished for them, no need to pay. Wishfit weeks would only occur when there were 6 wished for Wishfits, and perhaps 6 bottles. I haven't fully fleshed out the details yet, but it would mean there would still be 6 Misfits available for anyone to buy the rest of the time. Wishfits would probably be reserved for a week, unless someone explicitly stated they were going away or offered the Misfit for anyone to adopt.
