Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Welcome to the Treehouse Maut! It is a wonderful place where CBers and AEs can relax together, have pie wars, and all the CB classics! To go here, please take this note and put it high in the branches of a nearby mango tree. Password is mangrove. A mystical bird will then swoop in, take the letter, and take you to a castle in the sky.* This 14 day vacation will be an awesome respite from the usual craziness of the CB, and if you like the craziness, there is a great place for yelling maniacally, pizza, and murders**. Come to the Treehouse Maut today!
*Not actually a castle. And no, I have not just finished reading Howl’s Moving Castle. I don’t even like it! It was House of Many Ways. So there.
**Not that I’m suggesting anything!
Sincerely, Chaan Aakash.
You look up from the note. It’s the season of fall turning into winter, where everything is gray and rainy. A break would be nice- no. No. What are you thinking? It’s obviously a ski lodge. You are going to get murdered so fast, it won’t even be fun. A raindrop falls on your head. You sigh and stand up to go inside, where you find the CAPTCHAs have stolen all your chocolate. “Really?” you groan. The letter is in your pocket. Now you have to make a choice.
You walk up to an old mango tree and clamber up, placing your note inside. But perhaps you would not have done it if you had known the meaning of the word maut.
You probably can tell by now this is a Ski Lodge. Fill out this form here to join!

Weapons are allowed- technically peace bonded, but who cares about that? However, you did get the wrong password. I wanted you to actually go look for it, that wasn't the password. I'll still let you in if it's wrong, but can you find the right one? I hid it in the main post because I wanted people to read it, so can you find the right one? Thanks.

Tried to post this once before but I guess it didn't go through?
I'm on a trip right now and I have very bad internet, but I'd like to reserve a spot if possible. Mangrove. I'll be back Monday so I should be able to fill out forms then.

Any excuse to climb a tree.
Name: Viola?
AE, Captcha, or CBer?: CBer
Perceived age: Secreteen
Personality: Overly dramatic, often like a living cartoon. Worries about that meaning she has psychopathic tendencies (expressing emotions because they should be felt rather than that they actually are), but emotes truthfully to strange reactions (excitement about reading Lovecraft, being fascinated by anatomy and botany, not liking puppies, being reminded of songs). Keeps herself busy and is accordingly tired and/or distracted a lot. When comfortable, cheerful, makes a lot of low-key jokes, loves identifying plants and animals to anyone who will listen. Very delicate in doing a lot of things, fond of precision. Can be determined, trusting, adaptable, complacent, oblivious, neglectful, anxious and gullible. Can't find a personality test that gives an accurate result. Enjoys shocking people in little ways (climbing trees, being creepy) and subtly steering conversations.
Insanity level: 42 (or was it 84?)
Appearance: Tall, thin, with long hair and nails. Prefers T-shirts, jeans, hiking socks and sneakers. Usually wears a pendant.
Favorite type of tree: Magnolia for its beauty and often being perfect for climbing, split-leaf maple, dogwood and crabapple for the same reasons, beech, pine and spruce for being pretty, maple for being pretty and nostalgic... In short, can't decide because they're all too awesome.
Packing list: An apothecary book, a few novels, her sketchbook and drawing materials, her diary, a Cheshire cat plushie, a small first-aid kit, the usual spare clothes and toiletries, a Swiss army knife, 50 feet of rope, 60 inches of string, a one-person sleeping bag, some popcorn, a recurve bow and arrows, a small and empty glass bottle, a flashlight, and stuff to carry it all in.
Other: Usually introduces herself as an eccentric artist and fangirl of many webcomics.
Password: Mangrove.
Hey, Nymph, do you want to come?
*looks it over* Eh, sure.
Name: Nymph
AE, Captcha or CBer?: AE
Percieved age: Unknown (shapeshifter)
Personality: Grumpy, snarky, antisocial, competitive. Somewhat arrogant and dramatic, easily upset by the wrong people. Hates shipping. Thoughtful and subconsciously sensitive, independent and physically infinitely capable, won't accept help from anyone. Not above pranking. Surprisingly smart, feels like she should be able to do anything and everything, but doesn't necessarily want to. Has respect for anything that is older and more powerful than her and yet is humble. Has absolutely no respect for those she actively dislikes. Hates being wrong.
Insanity level: 23
Appearance: Variable (possibly-unlimited shapeshifter)
Favorite type of tree: Oak, maybe
Packing list: A few clothes. Can shapeshift for pretty much anything else she needs.
Other: Speaks in bold italics. Queen of several forests. Gender-fluid, uses female pronouns. Hasn't told her maybe-boyfriend Devin; assumed he could figure it out and doesn't think he cares.
Password: Mangrove.
SG! You want to come, make it a party?
I suppose... I am not eager to be murdered, nor to be the murderer.
Aww. Yeah, I guess you're right. Go on, go fly kites on the beach with Celeste.
*blushes* *fades away*
Maxi says ennt! She's not coming, though, I think.

The Ski Lodge will be starting today, or tomorrow if writing the post takes longer than I've expected. HAB, you haven't submitted your sheet yet. I'm starting because it might die if I wait too long, but you can submit your sheet anytime. Please try to submit it today or tomorrow, though. Thanks!

Chaan Aakash stood in a hidden alcove, a sceen of branches and leaves obscuring them from the collection of CBers and, suprisingly, only one AE, below them. The assortment of people, turquoise and peacock feathers and white blond, are still coming into the area, looking around in wonder.
The house is built on the water, mangrove trees coming up and going through holes cut into the floor made of many different woods. The first story is huge and open, small areas shown by a different color of woods or carpet, and different things to do- easels and beanbag chairs and a swing out over the blue-green lagoon. There are no walls on the first story, and a CBer with long dark hair and a hint of feathers and magic swings around one of the thick columns holding it up, the columns that are actually the living mangrove trees.
The second story is the same size, but not exactly over the first one, more overlapping with it and the lagoon. A spiral staircase made of interwoven brances leads up to it, and it has the same columns but is less open, with walls although the windows and doors are simply open spaces, and rooms for each CBer, AE, and CAPTCHA that build the interior based on whoever lives there.
The third story is tiny, no walls or columns, and has diving boards and a long twirling waterslide, and a rooftop garden up with the stars and clouds and blue blue sky.
There is a fourth story, that only a few people can see. This is where Chaan stands now, making a choice. Who will kill... and who will be murdered.

Sorry about the delay. Back now!
Name: Hotairballoon
AE, CAPTCHAE, or CBer?: CBer
Perceived age: 14
Personality: Not very outgoing, likes being alone but doesn't mind participating in group events as long as he doesn't have to lead the charge. Dry, kinda sarcastic, cracks a lot of jokes. Did I get everything?
Insanity(scale from one to one hundred): Probably like a 15 or 20? Not very high.
Appearance: Tall male, usually wearing casual clothes. Hair dyed some shade of white or very light grey.
Favorite type of tree: I've always been partial to willows.
Packing List: Normal stuff you'd bring on a vacation - spare clothes, books, a translucent vial filled with some sort of orange goo, you know. The usuals.
Password: Mangrove (again)
(I feel bad about doing this in case you've already decided who lives and who dies, but I'm also bringing an AE if that's okay? If not, just ignore his sheet, it's fine.)
I have returned from saving the entire world for the fifth time this month, and I'm ready for a vacation!
Weren't you just on one? Didn't you tell me earlier you were going to the beach for a week?
No, I just told you I was saving the entire world for the fifth time this month. Do you need a hearing aid?
That's not what I-- oh, whatever.
Name: Spyro
AE, CAPTCHAE, or CBer?: AE
Perceived age: Something something ageless? Not elderly, that's for sure.
Personality: Arrogant, sometimes annoyingly so. Shouts a lot (often maniacally, so that place you mentioned is sounding better and better) and likes showing off. Has a good(?) heart but doesn't usually care to open up to people that much. Oh, and there's the insanity factor of course.
Insanity(scale from one to one hundred): Somewhere around seventy.
Appearance: Eh... just look up Spyro on google images. HAB was not particularly creative at age eleven.
Favorite type of tree: Favorite tree? FAVORITE TREE?! Who has a favorite tree?! Not me. Any tree that doesn't come alive and physically attack me is a great tree in my book.
Packing List: If you don't want me to go into a detailed explanation of the specific types of donuts I'm packing, suffice it to say: a lot of donuts. Also, boring things like clothes and less boring things like a CHICKEN GUN!
*ahem*
Password: Uh... Corpus Christi! 1973! Alabaster! Me llamo Jamie! Oh, mangrove. Right.
Again, if you're too far in to include another AE, don't bother. I'm okay on my own. Thanks :)
(May 7, 2018 - 7:19 am)
Spyro is fine :) I've decided who the culprit is, but not the exact deaths yet, so... EVERYONE SPYRO'S NOT THE MURDERER! Next story post will be tomorrow. I have to go to track now so byeeeeee!!
