Hello! I'm Echo
Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket
Hello! I'm Echo
Hello! I'm Echo Hallowswift.
And I'm proud to announce the following.
I have three AE's, with more in the ma--
HI! I'M MAGNOLIA, OR MAGGIE FOR SHORT. I'M TEN YEARS OLD AND MY PRONOUNS ARE SHE/HER AND I LOVE FLOWERS AND BUTTERFLIES AND CAKE AND AND AND--
Oh Gandalf, she's on a sugar high. Well, MY name is Lyra, and I'm fourteen. I like painting. *adjusts beret* My pronouns are she/her, and I'm... sadly... the older-sister figure in Magnolia's life. Echo, do you mind if I go paint..? *motions to the porch with a wistful look on her face*
Yes, that's fine, Lyra.
LYRA'S SUPER SHY AND QUIET AND INTROVERTEDDY!
Now, Magnolia, let Hawthorne introduce himself without you taking up all of the spotlight.
FIIIIINE. BUT. I'MA GO PLAY WITH LYRA!
No, wait, Magnolia! Oh Gandalf, Lyra's not going to be happy... *sighs frustratedly* Hawthorne, introduce yourself so I can go finish the chores I'm supposed to be doing, please.
<Hi, I'm Hawthorne. I'm fourteen years old, and I like writing stories in these notebooks! *holds up red, blue, and green spiral bound notebooks*>
AAAAAND YOU HAVE A CRUSH ON LYYYYYRAAAAAAAA!!!
<I--I do not! Stop that, Magnolia. It's not funny. *cute pouty face*>
If you all have any AE's that might want to meet mine, just let me know! My AE's need stuff to keep them preoccupied, or else Maggie is like this all day long...

~HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII MAAAGGGGIIIIIEEEE!~
#Uh oh. I think she's catching more hyper-ness from Magnolia...#
~I'M MIRA AND I LOVE STRAWBERRIES AND I'M TEN YEARS OLD TOO!! Let's be besties foreverrrrrr! Oh and yes Strawberry we're still besties :) ~
#Hey, I'm Lyre, pronounced Lie-Er. I'm 11, and I'm unfortunately Mira's older sister. *deep frown* I love books and cherries a lot. Okay bye!#
{And Rora has been too lazy to make my font bold, so whatever. I'm not that bold in font. ;) Anyways, I'm Periculosa, which means danger in Latin, but you can call me Lisa. I'm 12 and I'm Mira and Lyre's cousin. And I really like archery.}
*motions AEs off the stage*
Hi Echo! I was originally Nut Le Squirrel, but I prefer to be called Rora :) I love the magical ring your name has to it! :)
*blinks* Wait a second...did I just use two smiley faces in a row?
-Rora

Hiii Echo! I'm Reuby Moonnight! I really like your AEs. How old are you?
(December 11, 2022 - 3:15 pm)
Hi, Echo H! Your name is really pretty! I'm Poinsettia, she/her, and I've got a couple of AEs that would like to meet yours!
<Hi, everyone! I'm Sapphire, she/her. Hawthorne, it's amazing that you write stories. I'm... not so good at doing that.>
~Meaning she's very bad at it indeed-~
<Ariella! *exasperated sigh* Poinsettia specifically told you not to interrupt! Sorry, Hawthorne. Anyway, could you give me some tips on writing, if that's okay?>
~My turn now! I"m Ariella, she/her. Pleased to meet you all! Do any of you want to be friends?~

Hi Poinsettia!
When I was little I wrote stories about a character "Princess Sapphire." Isn't it funny she's your AE now?
(December 12, 2022 - 6:36 pm)
@Rora - YES WE ARE BESTIES FOREVER MIRA!!! YAYYYY!!! :DD
Nice to meet you all.
<I'm Hawthorne, but you can call me The HAIR.>
DO NOT CALL HIM THAT. HE HAS ENOUGH OF A BIG HEAD ALREADY.
<I DO NOT. *sweeps hair back attractively*>
HE HAS A BIG HEAD, HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
OOokay. Let's move on to the next CBer before things get out of hand...
@Reuby - I'm a teen, but I'd prefer not to give my real age. I've seen that you're twelve, though, and I'm not much older than that.
@Poincettia - HI ALL OF POINCETTIA'S AES! YOU ALREADY PROBABLY KNOW ME BUT STILL, HI! DID YOU KNOW THAT TOMATO BACKWARDS IS OTAMOT? BAAAAHAHAHHA!
Stooooop. Your laughter is making my ears hurt.
<Y'know, I agree with Ly on this one. *stage whisper* That's rare, Folks. AAAnyway, sure, Sapphire, I can give ya some tips! 1. Think of a plot--for instance, come up with a main character and what their goal in the story is. 2. Think of some sub-characters and give them a goal, whether it's to help the main character or to just be annoying. Kinda like Magnolia!>
HEEEEYYYY!!! THAT'S NOT FAIIIIIR. *insert whine here*
<3. Come up with a main antagonist, and maybe give him a *eyebrow wiggle* BACKSTORY! 4. Come up with a place where all the characters--->
OOOOOKAY. I think Sapphire gets the point, Hawthorne.
Yeah. If he starts talking about how to write stories, he'll never stop.
TRUE DAT!
Anyway, it's nice to meet you all!
By the way, I've been known as many other CBers, but I'd like to keep those identities a secret. I changed my identity to Echo because I wanted to actually have AEs. And, please don't try to guess! All I will say is that the people I've been are not old CBers. They're fairly new.
(December 12, 2022 - 7:42 pm)
And thank you for all of the compliments!
(December 12, 2022 - 7:42 pm)
Hi!
So Periculosa kinda ran away, but...do you want to ship Hawthorne with Lisa? Periculosa is Lisa for short. I mean, she kind of thinks he's cute...
(December 13, 2022 - 12:24 pm)
Hi Echo! Welcome to the CB. Also your AE's sound really cool! I saw on Writings picturing thread that you like Percy Jackson, WoF, and The Penderwicks. WoF and The Penderwicks are my two favorite book series and I haven't reading The Percy Jackson series yet but I think I'd really like it! I hope you like it here :)
(December 13, 2022 - 9:53 pm)
Ah! Yes, Percy Jackson is an incredible series. I won't spoil, but I do look a lot like Annabeth Chase...
And I love The Penderwicks! Something about it just feels so homey and kind. It makes me feel all warm in side, or so to speak.
I LOVE PERCY JACKSON!!!
Wait, Magnolia, I said you were too young to read that. Did you sneak-read again?
Of course she did. What did you expect, Echo? It's MAGNOLIA, for Gandalf's sakes.
<It's not as bad as me sneaking off to secret author conventions, of course, but...wait. Did I just say that out loud?>
HAWTHORNE GOES TO SECRET AUTHORY CONVENTIONEDDIES? I WANNA GO TOO! NO FAIR NO FAIR NO FAIR!
You're all grounded except Lyra. Seriously, Magnolia. And Hawthorne, you too? Just ASK, for Gandalf's sakes. *sigh*
