Endless Spring
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Endless Spring
Endless Spring
It's a clear, crisp December afternoon as you are walking home from school. The first flakes of winter are falling, and you stop to catch a few on your tongue. Most of the trees are bare of leaves, but one is covered in its full green foliage. You stop and peer up at the tree, the one that looks so unusual this time of year. And before you know what you're doing, you are sitting on a branch next to a bemused but unafraid crow, swinging your legs over the side of the branch. You notice something in the branches above you. A letter- with your name on it. You pluck it from the branch, and stop to marvel at the quality of the wax seal on it- green, with a leaf imprinted on it- that you barely notice the leaves on the tree slowly- but in perspective rapidly- changing first to yellow, then orange, red, and even a bit of purple and brown. They have started falling from the tree, but you are too immersed in your letter even to notice.
Dearest CBer,
You are invited to a free of charge* 3-Week stay at Endless Spring Castle and Resort! You and only 21 of your fellow letter-holders** are invited- you'll have the whole place to yourselves, and be home before Christmas***! All homework is waived- just go to the front of your house at promptly 5 pm, CST, with your AEs, CAPTCHAs, and whatever you are bringing to the resort. The taxi will handle you from there. This trip includes a reenactment of Hamilton, a magical garden flower maze, and castle scavenger hunts. Best of luck, and enjoy your stay!
Your friend,
The Spring Queen (Please, call me Rose)
P.S: Once you have entered the hotel, you may not leave until the 21-day duration is up.
P.P.S: The spring queen is not responsible for injury, severe wounds, burns, deaths, poisonings, murders, or anything along those lines.
*The popcorn is not free. (Of course)
**This INCLUDES AEs and CAPTCHAs
***With luck

Well, that was strange! you think, hopping down from the tree. You check your watch. 4:15 PM.
You rush home to start preparing.

Top! I'm sorry, I've been really busy and am recovering from a cold on top of it, you know how crazy December is.
name: Aspen
age: 12 1/2
gender: female
looks: IRL, wavy, dirty blond hair to the lower ends of my shoulder blades, slightly greenish blue eyes (part of why they look that way is the greenish gold rings of color around my pupils, well, greenish gold is the best way I know how to describe it), wears a black hooded top thing and dark jeans (one of my dream outfits)
strengths: I'm a fast reader, have a good memory, and am in Gryffindor (lol XD I had to)
weaknesses: I tend to want to think the best of people, or majorly overlook their faults if it's someone I admire, and yes, I do this with movie and book characters as well; I am not very organized, and tend to procrastinate with things
what you are bringing: a couple changed of clothes, my book, a booklight, some gel pens, my notebooks, and I would bring a bow and arrows but I guess those will be provided. *evil grin* and I hope you've got throwing knives too! *another evil grin*
favorite season: Winter
preferred character to play in Hamilton: No idea, I've never seen it. I wish I could, though! :)
other: n/a
password: Blossom!

*glances around* Huh. Deserted...? What's all this? Thorns. Briars? Hah, that'd be perfect. *looks up at tower* If these are briars, there better be some comatose royalty in there.

Haha, totally forgot I reserved a spot for Zoey and I... heheh... I'll post our charrie sheets now.

*inspects courtyard walls* This is a lot of briars. Must've been here a while. Now, where's a door...

If charrie sheets are not posted by the 23rd (which is this Saturday) I will give your spots away to somebody else. I will write the first part then and post it after Christmas.

*pokes carefully at briar curtain* Looks like there's something behind here... *slowly finds handholds and pulls briars aside* Ah, there's the door. The Secret Garden approach is successful.
