Home Sweet Home...

I took this photo a while ago, but I wanted to show off my beloved cactus fountain—which now runs water!! It was broken for the longest time, and you wouldn't believe what I had to kill in the sewers to get it working again...

Anyway, the town just gets prettier and prettier each day, I think! Anyone wanna invest in a nice vacation home? 😊

Your hair looks like pumpkin/pos ❤️

Heheh, you think so? Theo does call me "pumpkinhead" sometimes..

Do you guys have Halloween plans, by the way? I'm gonna be pumpkin carving, and then we're going to have a pumpkin FEAST, complete with pumpkin pie, pumpkin mousse, pumpkin soufflé, pumpkin shortbread—and most importantly, pumpkin ramen!!

Bus Stop on Route 398

Bean boy left camp before I did, so I went to go see him off. Sunsets are always so beautiful, but I don’t think I’ll ever forget this one..

..Heh! Thanks for all the ammo. 😏 Heard they're having a water balloon fight over there, and there’s someone I've been really looking forward to saying hello to.

Rumour is, he’s a real scumbag.

Stranger Things than It have happened..

[ Before dance night vs. After dance night ! ]

What an event!! I did have to leave Bean alone for a bit to take care of some business at some point...but then I came right back and we moshed the evening away to some hardcore jams~

As for what said business was...well, I really don’t want to spoil anything, so you’ll just have to find out for yourself:

Dear Friends in The Kissing Room

I wandered around the dance hall all evening looking for a certain someone, but he was just nowhere to be found....until I witnessed a horde of flustered teens running out of the pantry in the blacklight corner. Turns out an adult had accidentally crashed their spin-the-bottle party. 😊

Auntie Miru’s milkshakes bring all of my friends to the yard

[CONTINUED FROM [LINK]]

I lost count of the number of times I’d cried at camp, but I swear to you that they were all good cries!

[audtreegrace]

I met a Lorax for the first time!

His name was the Bankax, and...how should I describe him? Shortish, oldish, brownish, mossy...and he was in charge of our dear little Cashtie, who’s actually a full grown adult Once-ler in their home realm. Apparently the notorious Cashtea-ler makes a habit of inviting people to his casino, striking deals with them and then stealing their souls. Pretty crazy, right?

But I’m probably even crazier...because I told the Bankax that I’d help him take down Cashtea and free all the trapped souls. Mmmmaybe it was against my better judgement, since I’d...also risk losing my soul, haha. But!! Mister Bankax was just so cute, okay?? And he even let me harvest two large bags of truffula fruit to take home with me! That’s SO MANY more seeds we can plant in town...so if this is what you call being charmed by a forest spirit, I guess I’m okay with it.

...And..you know, it just seemed like he’d been having a rough time fighting all alone for so many years. I could relate to that.

I also still believe that there’s some good left in Cashtea. He’s just under some kind of curse, is all, and I know very well that curses can be broken.

Surprise Party with 69 Cakes

[Art by @clarabellumsart​]

Auntie Miru threw a surprise birthday party for me this year!?? Som and Hudson had helped her to make 69 cakes for all who attended, and I received a lot of wonderful gifts, too…..

I’m,,..really not used to having so much attention on me, but…it was kind of nice! 🥺🧡

It was a mistake to make myself a Tumblr because now I talk TOO MUCH....

Birthday Calamities

I still remember all the things I used to do when I was the resident zombie slayer at Som’s factory. These would include, but not be limited to, factory “sweeps” to make sure there weren’t any zombies in or around the factory, rooftop lookouts, digging hole traps, listening to the radio, making all kinds of soups, learning guitar, building pillow forts in the gaymes room, sleeping huddled up together on a giant Once-ler bed, and most of all, changing bandages.

Space and time are warped out there, though, so I don’t even know who all still remembers those times anymore, but I hope they’ll at least stay with me forever. I...wouldn’t be the same person without them.

And for the record, I know two Soms. The other Som is the one from my alternate beach life, whom I officially got reunited with shortly after I arrived at camp. He's also very dear to me, so at least I still have him.

What else was I going to say..oh yeah. Does anyone else ever get the jitters on certain days of the year, due to bad things having happened on those days in the past? I hope that’s a totally normal thing. For me, it’s unfortunately always when September the 16th approaches..

Punishment Day for Little Cashtie

In which I follow through with Coal’s detention request for Cashtie.

It’s tough when you think you’re doing the right thing, but then it blows up in your face and you accidentally set off someone’s Once-ler Destiny..

But we’ll live to fight another day, won’t we? I’ll fix it, I promise.

Shoutout to Johnny’s dad for bringing the costumes to us. Johnny still owes me one for choosing to be stuck in the dirt all evening while I had to greet his dad all by myself, JUST sayin’.

Happy summerween Audrey!! What’s your costume this year?

HAPPY SUMMERWEEN!! Johnny and I got to make a dramatic entrance to the Summerween party last night as Sailor Moon and Tuxedo Mask!!

Aren’t we sexy?? It’s been way, waaay too long since we got to cosplay together.. :,) So of course we jumped at the opportunity. Anime buddies forever and ever. ✌️

Archery 101 with Fellow Adventurer Nenela!! (feat. Bean ♥)

[Catdrey art by Chase]

I should probably say something again about my actual job at summer camp, huh? It’s been a pleasure teaching archery to kids, despite being forced to have the younger ones use plunger arrows instead of real arrows (yes, I’m still upset over that), and mainly it’s just been really cool to give them that confidence boost through archery.

Also, a secret: I learned archery intuitively while surviving in the wastelands, but doing and teaching are two different things, so...I actually had to look up online how to teach it real quick before I got started at Weehawken. 😂 Don’t tell anyone, okay!! Bean boy said I was pretty good at the instructor thing!! It helped to have good students too though, like sweet little Nenela...I hope she enjoyed the lesson. 🥰 Even though I got rather distracted halfway through..

[Dunking his head in a body of water is what Bean did the previous summer, in reaction to receiving love confessions from his friends Ted Wiggins and Audrey Jones]
