After months of

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

After months of

After months of waiting..............

I've finally developed an AE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Developed?

Yes, developed.

Oh.

What did you think?

I just thought it would be nicer to say that we come from the mysterious unseen depths of the Chatterbox waiting to be invented and brought to the light of the seen posts and comments by our Chatterboxer.

You know that's a run-on sentence, right?

Whatever.

Anyway, meet Alex!!!

Alex?

[distantly] What?

You're supposed to say hi to all the nice Chatterboxers out there.

[still distant] I'd rather not.

*sigh* You'll have to sometime.

[hardly intelligible] Fine. Hi.

*rolls eyes* Here's her sheet:

Name: Alex

Age: Appears about 12-13

Gender: Female

Looks: Dark reddish-brown shoulder-length hair, often loose, dark purple glasses, emerald/hazel-ish eyes, pale, slightly tannish skin, often wears leggings and cool colored striped tops.

Personality: Quiet, introvert, studious, but not boring when you get to know her.

Likes: Yarn, reading, puns, romance novels, ski lodges, coconuts.

Dislikes: Attention, loud noises, neon colors, socializing with strangers, sports.

Other: Is what you might call a "nerd" *sigh* That's what everyone says. 

She may be a bit overdeveloped, but I have had 5 months to think about her....:)

CBers and CBettes... my first AE!!!!

Hiya Alex! Pleasure to meetcha! I'm Aryss! As you've noticed, I'm a dragon! Do you like explosions by any chance? *evil grin*

Aryss....

Ah, don't "Aryss" me, Juniper party pooper.

Um, what?

Perhaps you could both be... quiet?

Ooh yes, silence please.

Y'all are BOTH party poopers. Spoilsports.

Fine.

~*sighs and flicks bangs*~

Hey, Eclipse, why don't you introduce yourself?

~What's tha point if they know my name already?~

This discussion is getting a little old...

~Mph. *scowls*~

Hey, guys, why don't we, uh... bring up the vibe a bit? Hi, Alex. Sorry 'bout them. I'm Juniper! What's your favorite kind of book?

Hello, Alex! Welcome to the CB. :)

Oh a new person! Hi, I'm Jupiter! Pleased to make your acquaintance! Have you ever heard of Rick Riordan? Uncle Rick's the best author out there! 

Well, he's not the best, in my opinion, but---wait no we are not discussing this again. Come on, before you scare off the new girl. 

Awww but-

Jupiter, no.

[pouts] fine. Hope you like the Cb, Alex!

I like her already. Hi, Alex!

Hello, Alex. Welcome to the Chatterbox!

...

*gasps* Nymph, do you--dare I say it--not hate her?

She's smart not to trust strangers, but romance novels are dumb.

Don't say that, you've never read one. Unless you have. Would you tell me if that was the case, though?

No.

Didn't think so... I do think that Sea Glass likes her, though.

Likes platonically or romantically?

You know I'd ship it either way.

I suppose such is true. 

We're probably destroying her with all the greetings and attention, though. Come on, let's give her some peace.

See, I told you they were friendly.

Yeah, but...

What?

*gestures to a curious poster that states "I'd rather be reading"*

*sigh* At least respond to the nice AEs who welcomed you.

Ok, ok. *scribbles furiously on a piece of paper, then dashes to her room*

*peeks at the note* Reads:

Annabelle - Same to you I'm sure.

Aryss - I do enjoy explosions if they involve a popcorn popper and butter

Eclipse - Introducing yourself is all too prone to get old. That's why I have an introduction saved on my laptop for such a time.

Juniper - It's no problem. I'm used to this sort of thing. I quite enjoy romance novels, mysteries, and science fiction.

Jupiter - Thank you. I've heard of him, but I've never read his books.

Sea Glass - Many thanks. I find this place quite perplexing, yet surprisingly tranquil.

Nymph - In most cases they are, but sometimes that makes them all the more enjoyable.

Yup, she's very fun and creative, but really very shy. She won't admit it though...

Eclipse is kinda the same way, but more... prickly. And difficult. And Puck-ish. (Reference to the Winterling Trilogy! Those books are amazing...)

~How d'you know I'm NOT a puck?~

Oh man. Are you?

~Perhaps. *flicks bangs out of eyes*~

Ahhh yes Alex, popcorn is wonderful. But still not as good as candy! Or BACON!

Ohh yes, science fiction is really cool! I heard of one sci-fi book called Daniel Coldstar: The Relic War. Have you heard of it?

Oh hey, Seren, I don't think you actually introduced yourself.

That is easily solved. Greetings, Alex, I am Seren. And yes, I am indeed an elf.

Yeah, how old are you now anyway, Seren?

*glares* That is none of your business, and I do not know anyway. Shut your jaws, please.

Suure, I can shut my jaws!*clashes teeth together* There ya go! Happy?

...Not exactly. But never mind.
