Booklyn~ A Library
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
Booklyn~ A Library
Booklyn~ A Library Lodge
The cover was hard-backed, and it was painted a nice green color. The spine was stiff, and the pages had that smell that only brand new, just-off-the-shelf-smell books had. The pages were white, and had rough edges to give it an olden appearance. There were no words on the pages, blank landscapes page after page. The cover had golden words written in cursive on it, and it spelled out; Booklyn: A place to write your own tail
For some reason, 'tail' replaced 'tale', which didn't make much since, but it didn't really matter all that much. On the title page, the only page with writing, had the publishing date, which read now. Below that, in smaller writing, were the words, Curious? You are my type of person. Tap HERE to learn more.
Once the word HERE was tapped, the air above the open book stuttered, and from the page a hologram appeared. It was of a lady, and though her features were blurred, anyone could see her dark skin, her short, crazy curly hair, and bright, happy eyes. Her teeth were blindingly white, even in this recording, as she smiled and began to speak.
Greetings, fellow book lover. I am The Librarian, and I am inviting you, whomever you are, to join me for a week here in my library. This place is a time to think, relax, read, and be inspired to write stories and poems. I sincerely hope you come, and I will welcome you with open arms. Toodles!
The hologram paused, and then the book flipped to the next page on it's own accord. Now, instead of a white page, a form appeared in that familiar golden writing.

A golden pen with the same golden ink appears on the page. Like any book, the story can continue, or the book can be shut and put away. Whatever happens, always remember, the chose is YOURS.
If you haven't realized by now, this is a ski lodge. There will be no gore, blood, or explicit violence. This lodge will begin on the 1st of January, and no AEs, OCs, or CAPTCHAs. CBers only, and there is a 20 person limit (but I doubt it will get that high. Whatever number of people that have joined by the 1st will be that much. The spots will close regardless of filling all 20 spots or not). Feel free to guess me! Toodles!

Actually, Bob has recently come down with a nasty case of wing rot. I'll be bringing my other pet pterodactyl, Ptheodore, or Ptheo for short. Ptheo likes to wear Psunglasses.

Do you mind sleeping near somebody (or several somebodies?): I'm open to it.
Why are you joining this lodge?: It seemed interesting and one of my friends is.

Name: Lyric
Pronouns: she/her/hers
Appearance (please include your usual attire): T-shirt (solid or with a graphic design), black leggings, green jacket with buttons, glasses, thick black hair, very skinny.
Personality: Gentle, kind, quiet, shy (but I become more talkative as I get to know a person) logical, clever, anxious, optimistic, fidgety, a workaholic (the only way to describe my overcommitment to school, sadly), jumpy, creative, inquisitive, helpful, and thoughtful.
Do you write, or read more?: Write *sighs* I think I wrote thousands of words in the past two weeks, but only read two short poems. I have barely any time to read anymore…(due to school)
Do you like a bunch of snacks through the day with a few meals here and there, or just three, maybe four solid meals?: I always eat three meals a day, but a couple of snacks sandwiched in between, depending on when or if I remember to eat them.
Did dinosaurs exist?: Yes. I’m pretty sure they do.
Do you believe in a higher power?: Assuming you’re referring to religions, yes.
*Offers you two pieces of chocolate* Milk or dark?: Ooh thank you; I love chocolate :) *takes dark chocolate* *sees that most people chose milk chocolate* Oh…um…definitely no peer pressure haha
Do you mind sleeping near somebody (or several somebodies?): Um…maybe not…I know this is a ski lodge and there is safety in numbers but I know irl me would panic because I’ve never been to sleepovers or camp or anything like that, so…yes. I do mind a lot.
Why are you joining this lodge?: Because there is no gore or blood or explicit violence and I have no idea when there will be another ski lodge like that on Pudding’s Place and also because I have the time to join a ski lodge now that my to-do list for school just went down from 16 items to 7 :D
Other: Thank you!! I’m excited :D I love the title btw.
