You settle down for the night. Despite being exposed to the elements you manage to get comfy, and strangely, don't feel too cold while you sleep. In fact, you feel quite warm and cozy, as if being wrapped up in soft, fluffy blanket.

You're vaguely aware of this soft, fluffy feeling as you start to awaken. Opening your eyes, you look down to see two long fluffy tubes flopped over you like a blanket. You rub your forehead in confusion, and then remember.

You sit up and look behind you. Toddle is sitting crosslegged a little way away, grinning at you. He brings a fluffy arm up and tickles your nose in greeting.

"Good Morning~!" he says cheerily, kneeling and walking over to you on his knees. He had a sing song quality to his voice, as if he was always on the verge of bursting into rhyme. He unravels his arms and they flop beside him lazily as he settles down next to you.

Image
You can use your items from this point onwards.

The two of you sit and talk for a while. Toddle asks you lots of questions, and seems genuinely intrigued by your responses. Sometimes he leans in with his floppy arms propping up his chin, other times he leans back and props himself up on his arms.

After a while, the both of you decide to pop by the Goblin and see what he's up to. He lies asleep in a rickety old rocking chair, snoring away loudly. You decide to browse his wares for a bit as you wait for him. The bottles glisten in the morning sunlight. Toddle's fascinated, like he's never seen such amazing things. He handles the bottles carefully, cradling them in his fluffy arms like he was handing the finest china.

The moment you make a decision about what you'd like, the goblin is up beside you in a flash. You hadn't even heard him move.

"oooh, shiny." Toddle says as you finalise the purchase, the light of the bottles reflecting off his face.

You settle down for the night in between your new companions. It takes a little bit of time to get comfy, but you must of drifted off to sleep. The first thing you notice as you're waking is the sound of quiet whispering.

"She adopted both of us together! My name's Amie, what's yours?" It is a young voice, bubbling with excitement. You pull yourself up and look over to see Aura kneeling and Amie standing in front of her, smiling. Aura looks over at you, as if she knew you were awake. Amie, noticing the change in her attention, looks round at you with a beaming smile.

Next thing you know she's running over to you, little arms outstretched, and then she's hugging you tightly.

"Thankyou thankyou thankyou!" she squeals happily. "I can't wait to go on adventures together with you and Aura!"

The three of you soon decide to leave the clearing, You walk and talk - well, Airheart hovers, you and her talk, and MARK-12 and you walk - getting to know each other. Airheart is very polite and sweet. She seems to laugh alot more with her new ether powers, and occasionally she'll shoot her hands foreward and cause little stars to spark forth. MARK-12 seems a bit quiet, but you don't get the feeling he is antisocal, just a little stoic. Eventually, you slow down and come to a stop.

The land you are standing in is quite different. You don't really remember leaving the Land of Lost Things, but you are most certainly in a different place now.
"That's the way the world works." Airheart says, drifting down next to you. "One minute here, one moment there. Time and travel work quite differently here." She lands on the ground.

"We have a choice to make." says MARK-12 quite suddenly. His voice is smooth and deep. It surprises you, for he had not spoken a word since he woke up. He points foreward to the horizon.

To the left of you lies a great green forest. The trees around the edge are small, but in the distance you can see the canopy of giant trees that stretch high into the sky. Following his finger, you look to the right of you. In the distance the sky is redder, the ground is dirt, and large hunks of metal stretch upwards, left abandoned. It reminds you alot of the land of Lost Things, except a bit more lonesome.


"We should find a place to settle and shelter." says MARK-12 quite matter of factly.

"Oh yes!" says Airheart, her face lighting up as she turns to you. "It would be nice to have a home, somewhere we can stay out of the elements. Sleeping out under the stars is all well and good, but it's been so long since I've had a nice comfy place to call my own. A nice little cottage in the wood, perhaps, surrounded by flowers and wildlife-"

"My vote is for the Mech Graveyard. Plenty of materials to build with and free land to use." MARK-12 cuts her off, looking at you directly. He seems quite uninterested in the forest path and has taken a step towards the right.

Airheart lifts off the ground in surprise.
"You can't be serious! That place is a wasteland. It's full of old chunks of metal and nothings grows there. Really, the Great Forest is a much better place to stay - we can grow lots of food to eat and make friends with the forest dwellers-"

"-and there are lots of wild animals and anything could live nearby." finished MARK-12.

"Well, what about your idea? It's called a graveyard for a reason! It's completely unsuitable to live in." Airheart replied, crossing her arms.

"You lack creativity. It is full of potential and an appropriate place to settle."

You watch the two go back and forth for a while before they settle down a bit. Airheart stands to the left of you, and MARK-12 to the right. They turn towards you.

"Well, what do you think?" asked Airheart.

MARK-12 nodded. "Where do you think would be a good place to stay?"

Live in the Great Forest or the Mech Graveyard?


Feel free to get fanart of your characters made, they're yours now! I would love to see more art of them. Credit or references to this thread would be lovely, although references aren't necessary if you don't want to.

I laugh and hug Amie back.

"I look forward to it as well, Amie. I know that you, me, and Aura will get along great." After a moment I let her go, then slowly stand up to stretch.

"Ooof. Oh, I'm Lorelei. Errr... Sorry. I tend to be a little hyper when I wake up... or a total bore. Lucky you got the hyper me, huh?" I laugh, a little nervously. I shuffle my feet a little, uncertain.
"So, where are we going? Or do you two want to stay here and talk a little?"


(ugh, that's so bad...)

Ahh! I was gonna ask if we could doodle them, glad to know that we can~

As the two mechs bickered, Mocking sighed and rubbed his temples. Living in the forest would be fine and dandy, but they'd need to build a tree house to keep the major wildlife from intruding and to keep sunlight filtering through their house. Also, it would be very hard to fix up the metallic beings fallen from the treehouse without the proper materials--metal, to be precise. As lovely as the forest would be, the Mech Graveyard would be better for his dear misfits. (Though, the name did send a tremble through his spine, and he gravitated closer to Airheart.)

"Look, Airheart," Mocking began slowly, "There was an ecosystem-in-a-bottle back at that goblin's market. I'd love to live in the forest, but it's just so dangerous. Not everyone can float, unfortunately. I'm sure we won't stay too long; I rather like exploring, but having someplace to return to to call 'home' where I can fix you both up is needed for my own sanity. MARK-12 is right, the graveyard would be better. Eventually, I'm sure, we'll have a bountiful garden and trees to shade us, and we'll feel even more accomplished knowing we did that ourselves!" He slightly winced as he spoke, knowing that he could not please both of the robots, and that forest did look welcoming. Welcoming things always disturbed Mocking, though. So, the Mech Graveyard was the path he decided to stroll down, casting a worried look back at Airheart.

You tug the cloth off the bottle with one strong movement and suddenly you are blasted by the sounds of laughter, kazoos and party poppers. Confetti after confetti explode out the bottle, creating a waist-deep pile around you in mere moments, and a cotton candy cloud forms above your head, snowing bite-sized pieces of pink and blue. You look through the hubbhub to find Toddle, but he is nowhere to be seen. And then....

"Woohoohoo!" Toddle jumped out of the pile of confetti, shooting popcorn out of his hands and candyfloss out his hat. He is wearing a dapper suit, and his bowtie is spinning around and around in his excitement. He looks quite different, though his eyes glint with a spark of laughter that had just come alive.

Catching your eye he grins and wiggles his fancy new moustache up and down. He soumersaults over your head, landing behind you, and giving a sweeping bow.

Amie flaps her arms up and down in excitement. "I like hyper people! They're so much more fun then quiet ones!" she says, attempting a cartwheel across the ground and not quite managing it. She topples to the side and looks up at Aura. "Oh! But I like you too Aura! A lot. You're fine just the way you are even if you're quiet!"

This managed to get a grin out of Aura, the first you'd seen from her. She walks over to the pair of you, nodding to the horizon.
"We could stay here and talk a while, or follow wherever the horizon talks us."

"I want to play!" Amie added, scrambing up to her feet and trying again. "Look Look Look - I can do a really good cartwheel-" she fell over, and scrambled up again, "No really keep looking! See!" and finally landed the perfect cartwheel. "Did you see? Were you looking? I did it!" she said grinning, and then went right back to cartwheeling around.

Aura watched her, thinking. [/i]"We'll need to find a place to stay eventually. Somewhere warm and safe where Amie can grow up well." she looks over to you. "What do you think?"

Suddenly, a squeal from Amie catches your attention. She'd made it halfway across the clearing.
"Look at these!" she says, scooping up a bunch of bottles from the Goblin's stall into her arms. "This ones got a crown on! Can we get some? Pleaaaase?"

You spend a bit of time bartering with the goblin, and purchase some new bottles.

Airheart looked a little worried as she stared down the Mech path. "I trust your judgement." she said slowly, turning to look you in the eye. She managed a small smile, and bowed her head in respect. "I am sure that, wherever we go, we can make do." Still, you couldn't help but notice that she looked apprehensious as you all walked down the path together. MARK-12 was once again quiet, though he did seem to approve of your decision.

The sky tints red as you enter the graveyard. Sure enough, there is much metal and old wires surrounding you. A huge metal head lies half buried in the ground, barely recognisable as some sort of giant robot from long past. Even the ground has a red hue to it, but you are sure that things could grow here with some hard work and maybe a little help. You know it will take a while you build a house, but it will be well worth it when it's done.

As you are looking for a good place to settle, you come across an area where it is unusually clear. But that was not the wierdest thing - sitting nearby was a red postbox, looking a little worn and strangely out of place. You wonder why it was here and who built it.

As you approach, it spits out a piece of brightly coloured paper. As you skim through it, you realise it's an order form for the Goblin's shop.


"How terribly ingenious."said Airheart, looking over your shoulder, quite bemused."Do you think he knew you wanted the bottle? As she spoke, words began to fill the order, appearing before you as if they had seeped out the very paper itself. As your staring at the writing, you feel a gust of wind tugging at you. The next thing you know your arm had been pulled into the postbox. You feel the paper ripped from your grasp, but as you as grasping for it, you feel cool glass pressing against your palm.

You stumble backwards from the postbox, now holding the ecosystem bottle in your hand. Airheart rushes to your side.
"Goodness, are you ok? what a terrible fright!"

MARK-12 seems to have already made a start on looking through the wreckages.

Lovers Labyrinth will soon be open

Hi guys! It makes me so happy to see your Misfits in your signatures! Hope everyone is having fun :wave: I will be out of town visiting a friend this weekend and will not have my tablet, so this weekend will be a bit quiet.

But, new Bottles and new Misfits will be restocked early next week when I get home, as well as the first location being unlocked :woo:!

and if anyone does any fanart for their characters, I'd love to see <3 !

Also, some extra titbits:
•If I ever make a mistake with your inventories feel free to correct me! I almost made a mistake with the files today, so if you you think theres something wrong with your inventories at any point, just say so and I will correct it. I'm going to do a check weekly to make sure everything on the front page is accurate and up to date :hooray:

• I promise you can never lose your Misfits, even if they squabble, misbehave or dissapear sometimes. They will always come back to you. So don't worry Mockingbird, even if Airheart went into a strop it wouldn't last long!

•There *might* be some sneaky things with houses next week too!

Alpha blinked in surprise as Toddle popped into view. She watched his antics with complete and total amusement in her eyes, though somehow managed to keep a straight face. However, it wasn't long until she let out a humorous 'squee!', a smile appearing on her face, and rushed to Toddle, hugging him. She stepped back a moment later, still giggling at the crazy Misfit before managing to calm herself down a bit.

"You, sir, are freaking adorable! We are going to have a lot of fun!" Alpha chuckled again, knowing her words were going to ring true in the near future.
:D <3 <3
