leaf budg

just a little leaf glider!

[leafgliderofficial]

what is this? is phone? will use for talking with other budgs.

been through a lot for a little guy, but i keep on keeping on!

{Hey! This is a joke rp acount by @fantasydragon08 . This is a verdania leaf glider from Silksong! It's just a little guy so no Nsfw, rude asks, impersonation, or hate. I reserve the right to not interact with others if I feel like that is required.

Note: The leaf glider is an all lowercase text blog, so if something is boldened or uppercase, that's a sign of big things happening.

*a small green leaf shaped bug is now wandering near you.*

do do do do do

@leafgliderofficial

hmm…?

oh…! hello, dear…

[the Leaf Glider is gently lifted with one pair of clawed hands, so it can be examined more closely.]

are you lost, little one…?

[leafgliderofficial]

oh, hai! i'm not lost, but can see where you'd think that! i'm just wandering around. what's your name?

*it smiles at the weaver and adjusts its wings a bit.*

[slowly-spinning-my-fate]

…i am Fatespinner, the Silken Prophet…

you are a strange little bug… i do not believe you are from around here.

(ooc: for clarification, her Weavenest is near the Citadel! she isn’t connected to the Citadel though)

[leafgliderofficial]

nice to meet you, fatespinner! i'm from verdania, so yeah it's a ways from here. prophet, huh? sounds cool!

[slowly-spinning-my-fate]

verdania…? i was under the impression that verdania had fallen long ago…

…

…yes, my dear… a Prophet is a bug who can read the Silken strands of fate.

[leafgliderofficial]

well, yeah, but slow progress is being made to revive it!

that sounds so cool... and hard to do.

[slowly-spinning-my-fate]

revival of a fallen land…? fascinating…

it is not exactly hard… but one does need the gift of foresight.

[leafgliderofficial]

need it? how so?

*it tilts its head.*

[slowly-spinning-my-fate]

you see, my dear… foresight and prophecies are intertwined… one cannot exist without the other…

to see what will happen… that is the gift of foresight, a blessing and a curse… sometimes in vague prophecies… sometimes in vivid daydreams…

[leafgliderofficial]

oh wow... that's really changy. what kinda forward sight do you get the most often?

[leafgliderofficial]

woe, bubble bath be upon ye

*it gasps happily*

oh my goodness! it's so cool and fun looking!!

[targetedknowledge]

[echothevessel]

This is how Verdania was made

[leafgliderofficial]

can confirm

[leafgliderofficial]

🫪

*small gasp*

oohoohoo!

🫪

*wiggles of joy*

it's so silly!!!

[leafgliderofficial]

*gives you a big shiny diamond*

whoa... for me?? thank ya! it's so pretty!

*it proceeds to sit and stare at the diamond, fascinated by the facets.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

how goes it? i've been hanging out like you asked!

@leafgliderofficial

"Oh, I'm doing so much better! I think I'm getting back together with my ex! I'm overjoyed! You have no idea how happy I am! I can barely believe it! WOOOO!"

[leafgliderofficial]

yay! i knew it would all end well! good job!

*it does a little happy dance.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

"Thank you!" Dryya picks it up and places it on her shoulder.

[leafgliderofficial]

*it sits gripping the fabric, looking very happy, like a little green lion surveying its territory.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

"You're quite comfortable there, aren't you? Say, did I ask your name last time? It's been a while and a lot has been on my mind."

[leafgliderofficial]

oh! no, i never told you! ya see, i never really worried about my name, but this nice bug that was also a place called the wisp thicket gave me the name foliole! i use it on occasion, i'm very proud of it.

*it puffs up its little chest.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

"Foliole? That's a beautiful name! My name is Dryya, if you forgot. Care to stay a while? Do you want to go on a walk?"

[leafgliderofficial]

i remember! and sure! i like walks.

[dryya-the-fierce]

"Let me show you the Royal Waterways! They're dangerous, but you can fly and I'm immune to acid."

Dryya retrieves her armor and weapon, ready for the journey.

[leafgliderofficial]

obiekaybie!

*it does a little shake-rustle thingy.*

okay, i'm ready! heheh.

[dryya-the-fierce]

They walk, or well, Dryya walks while Foliole crawled around on her, looking at the infrastructure. It was a beautiful place for pumping water, but the water had sadly of gone acidic over time. Yet another project to fix.

They come to a ledge, below being acid and ahead being the way forward. There was one place Dryya wanted to take Foliole to.

"Fly ahead, I'll swim over."

[leafgliderofficial]

okay! hup!

*it pushes off of Dryya's shoulder, beating its wings and flitting around. it flies ahead, turning to make sure its friend is still there, then continues.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya swims after. There was some bright aura around her, keeping the acid from hurting her. She climbs up using her mantis claws. She points her friend to a luscious part of the waterworks. The greenery was quite unexpected in the developed area.

[leafgliderofficial]

oooh, you have a shiny protec bubble!

*foliole flaps over and lands in the greenery, rubbing against the moss and leaves.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

"Isma's blessing. She's one of the Great Knights, just as I am. This is her grove. She liked plants and wanted to mimic her home, so the Pale King let her set up her garden here."

[leafgliderofficial]

wow... that's awesome.

*it turns a circle, admiring the area from its vantage point on the ground.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

"This place reminds me a little of Greenpath. Have you been there?"

[leafgliderofficial]

i think so... i thought of my home, verdania. full of clovers and life! have you been?

[dryya-the-fierce]

"To Verdania? No. I don't know what that is."

[leafgliderofficial]

oh! it's in pharloom, so faaaaaaar from here, like really far. probably the farthest you can get!

[dryya-the-fierce]

"I've been in Pharloom twice. I never got farther than the lower sections. Moss Grotto, Deep Docks and Greymoor. I gotta say, I did not have a good time in Pharloom."

[leafgliderofficial]

really? dang. i will say, it's a lot different then hallownest. but it has its own charm! tell me about wha happened!

[dryya-the-fierce]

"Didn't I tell you last time? I had broken up with my girlfriend due to...a situation. I traveled to Pharloom and got so depressed that I got Lost. I took off my armor to get the weight off, mind you I have nothing underneath. I got forcefully taken away down to Moss Grotto and had to travel through half the damn kingdom naked and hallucinating. Not fun at all."

[leafgliderofficial]

ooooohhh i think you told me part of it... *it shudders, making a face.* that's rough...

[dryya-the-fierce]

"It was really tough. At least it made me hate my body a little less."

[leafgliderofficial]

well yeah, true true... how is the significant other anyways? last i knew she was out...

[dryya-the-fierce]

"Unconscious, yes. She woke up yesterday. She seemed so happy to be with me again..." Dryya seems to want to say more.

[leafgliderofficial]

oh yay! what else?

*>:3 it can tell.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya stays silent for a moment, then sits down on the edge of the platform.

"Don't tell anyone this. Thistle loves me and I adore her, but... I hurt her. I can't be trusted. I'd eventually hurt her again if I go back, and I'd hurt her if I don't. The thing is that staying with her for longer will only make her heartbroken when it happens. I don't want that. The thing that is best is if she gets her revenge and leaves me. That would hurt her the least. I tried to make her, but she wouldn't... I'm a bad person."

[leafgliderofficial]

*its face falls into a frown, and it marches up to be as close to Drrya as posible.*

hey! don't say that! did you want to hurt her? you can't determine the future! you've just gotta live in the now! if you don't, you'll waste your life! worry about today, cause tomorrow will worry about itself.

[dryya-the-fierce]

"How can I give her my love if I don't have any for myself? It doesn't make sense. I don't deserve her. I don't deserve anyone."

Dryya hides her face from the leafglider.

[leafgliderofficial]

*it marches around to where it can see her face again, placing one small foot on her.*

you're what, i dont know how old, and im just a little short lived bug, so i don' know a whole lot. but, i do know that love isn't something you earn, its something that just... is! you wouldn't turn down geo if it was just given to you, right? you may think you're not worth it, but guess what, she disagrees! so keep trying! maybe, just maybe, as you see the love she gives to you, you can learn how to do it to yourself. cause i know you know how to give it to others. don't prove the saying an old flea can't learn new tricks.

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya was crying, which is why she had turned away in the first place.

"I'm scared! Okay? We both almost died by direct consequence of my mistakes! I can't put her in danger like that. Damn emotions! Why do they have to be so powerful?!" Dryya punches the ground with her repaired claw. It hurt a lot.

[leafgliderofficial]

*it hops up on her lap, nudging her.*

and what do you do with your mistakes? learn from 'em! just cause you made 'em once doesn't mean it'll happen again! move forward!

*it also looks very concerned at her claw.*

oh, and please don't hurt yourself.

[dryya-the-fierce]

"But I have learned!" Dryya picks it up and puts it to the side. She really didn't want to cuddle right now.

"I'm sorry, this is a lot. I have to talk with Thistle." Dryya picks it up again and begins the return to the Village.

[leafgliderofficial]

hm.

i cant say i didn't try... just hope she doesn't do anything too fast...

i hope i didn't hurt her feelings or push her too much...

people are hard.

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya leaves the little bug by the entrance to the Village before getting a better idea.

"Do you want to sleep at our home tonight? Just as a thanks for being so nice."

[leafgliderofficial]

that would be nice... i don't mind doing anything. i don't want to intrude though...

[dryya-the-fierce]

"I'll make you a little bed. You're not intruding at all! You're a good anchor to keep me grounded in all my stress. You're really nice."

[leafgliderofficial]

*it smiles.*

thank you! ill try my best to keep doing that.

[dryya-the-fierce]

She pats its head.

"Yes please!"

[dryya-the-fierce]

how goes it? i've been hanging out like you asked!

@leafgliderofficial

"Oh, I'm doing so much better! I think I'm getting back together with my ex! I'm overjoyed! You have no idea how happy I am! I can barely believe it! WOOOO!"

[leafgliderofficial]

oh yay! what else?

*>:3 it can tell.*

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya stays silent for a moment, then sits down on the edge of the platform.

"Don't tell anyone this. Thistle loves me and I adore her, but... I hurt her. I can't be trusted. I'd eventually hurt her again if I go back, and I'd hurt her if I don't. The thing is that staying with her for longer will only make her heartbroken when it happens. I don't want that. The thing that is best is if she gets her revenge and leaves me. That would hurt her the least. I tried to make her, but she wouldn't... I'm a bad person."

[leafgliderofficial]

*its face falls into a frown, and it marches up to be as close to Drrya as posible.*

hey! don't say that! did you want to hurt her? you can't determine the future! you've just gotta live in the now! if you don't, you'll waste your life! worry about today, cause tomorrow will worry about itself.

[dryya-the-fierce]

"How can I give her my love if I don't have any for myself? It doesn't make sense. I don't deserve her. I don't deserve anyone."

Dryya hides her face from the leafglider.

[leafgliderofficial]

*it marches around to where it can see her face again, placing one small foot on her.*

you're what, i dont know how old, and im just a little short lived bug, so i don' know a whole lot. but, i do know that love isn't something you earn, its something that just... is! you wouldn't turn down geo if it was just given to you, right? you may think you're not worth it, but guess what, she disagrees! so keep trying! maybe, just maybe, as you see the love she gives to you, you can learn how to do it to yourself. cause i know you know how to give it to others. don't prove the saying an old flea can't learn new tricks.

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya was crying, which is why she had turned away in the first place.

"I'm scared! Okay? We both almost died by direct consequence of my mistakes! I can't put her in danger like that. Damn emotions! Why do they have to be so powerful?!" Dryya punches the ground with her repaired claw. It hurt a lot.

[leafgliderofficial]

*it hops up on her lap, nudging her.*

and what do you do with your mistakes? learn from 'em! just cause you made 'em once doesn't mean it'll happen again! move forward!

*it also looks very concerned at her claw.*

oh, and please don't hurt yourself.

[dryya-the-fierce]

"But I have learned!" Dryya picks it up and puts it to the side. She really didn't want to cuddle right now.

"I'm sorry, this is a lot. I have to talk with Thistle." Dryya picks it up again and begins the return to the Village.

[leafgliderofficial]

hm.

i cant say i didn't try... just hope she doesn't do anything too fast...

i hope i didn't hurt her feelings or push her too much...

people are hard.

[dryya-the-fierce]

Dryya leaves the little bug by the entrance to the Village before getting a better idea.

"Do you want to sleep at our home tonight? Just as a thanks for being so nice."

[leafgliderofficial]

that would be nice... i don't mind doing anything. i don't want to intrude though...
