Furry Runaway Prince & Family

"Big hello to the Mushroom World and beyond! I'm a prince, believe it or not, but I'm not really in line to inherit any thrones. Name's Reuben Marteniz, but everyone calls me Rube; I live in a village on Yoshi Island with Emma, my wife, and Deena, my little girl, and occasionally visit and get visited by my little man 'Gonzales Jr.' as he calls himself. I originally came from a quaint little kingdom called Macrone, though, and I do check in there from time to time." ((OC blog for the parents of the Yoshi Kid from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door.

superspyrothedragon9:

“oh I….didn’t know you were from royalty…..so anyway….how were you on fighting to defend yourself…..” spyro said trying to feel comfortable around him… 

In contrast to Spyro’s awkwardness, Rube continued leisurely swimming around. Now he was floating on his back and kicking with his feet.

“Well, ya already saw how I can handle a sword,” he smiled. “Not that it’s all that useful for anything here besides showing off…”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“yeah true but that’s a good thing” spyro said trying to float on his back but was having some trouble with it

[macroneroyalcousins]

“True… Ya want, we can go lie on the beach now…”

He was now doggy paddling around the dragon.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“hmm alright…..” spyro said heading back to the beach

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube swam his way back to the edge of the water, trotting on all fours back onto land before shaking like a dog. This wasn’t exactly typical yoshi behavior after a swim, but fur wasn’t exactly a typical yoshi trait anyway.

The sand of the beach was course yet soft to the touch at the same time. It was definitely going into the later half of the afternoon by that point, but it was still plenty warm in the area. The red dinosaur stretched out leisurely on his back in the drier sand.

“Ah… Nothing like catching some rays after a good swim…” He closed his eyes in content.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“yeah it really does feel good to feel the sunlight on my body…..” spyro said…”the heat feels really good too”

[macroneroyalcousins]

“Mmm… Yeah… Tropical islands…always the best sun…”

Rube’s voice was getting softer, and he sounded…very cozy.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“I’ve never really been to a beach before but this feels really….really relaxing” spyro said

[macroneroyalcousins]

“Yeah… Beaches… They’re great…”

His voice was rather soft by that point, both in tone and volume. He moved nothing but his mouth as he lied there leisurely on his back. He was looking very cozy.

[superspyrothedragon9]

spyro looked at him and layed down as well “….oh it feels really relaxing laying on the sandy beach right now” spyro said feeling cozy now

[macroneroyalcousins]

“Zzzzzzz...”

That was the only sound coming from him after so long.

[macroneroyalcousins]

superspyrothedragon9:

“Hmm alright sure” spyro said “the beach right?”

“To the beach!” Rube pointed dramatically down the path before merrily trotting along the way, all the way back to the warp pipe leading back to the village.

From there, Rube zealously led Spyro straight through into a path that presumably would take them back to the beach. He smiled back at his guest. “So… What do you think of Yoshi Island by this point, friend?” he asked cheerily.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“Hmm well it’s nice that’s for sure” he said as he did enjoy everything so far

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube’s reaction to that assessment was a very upbeat and positive one. “Happy to hear it!” he declared as he strutted down the path. “Yoshis love visitors! I know I speak for everyone when I say you’re welcome to come back anytime!”

The trees around them eventually thinned until they stepped out onto sandy beach. The shore stretched a long way along the edge of that side of the island. And if one peered carefully down the shoreline, they’d see that the ship dock the pair had met at was clear on the other end of the beach–quite a distance away now.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“hmm so what should we do now I’ve never really got a chance to spend time at the beach” spyro said

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube was already skipping merrily all around the beach, kicking up sand in his energetic display. He might’ve been thought not to hear his new friend speak, the way he was behaving, had he not given response to his question.

“There are all kinds ways to have fun on the beach! You could go swimming, do a little sunbathing, build sand sculptures, munch on bananas…!” He was still hopping and dancing about as he cheered out the list of options.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“oh….hmm I’ll let you decide what we should do” spyro said

[macroneroyalcousins]

The yoshi looked at the dragon, who just stood there and seemed a tad indecisive. After some thought, he shrugged and mused, “You know, they’re all great activities to do. So…why not do ‘em all?”

With a grin, Rube eagerly kicked off his boots and tossed his saddle aside–the only things he’d been wearing. He then made a dash for the shoreline, leaping into the air and flutterjumping in place before falling into the ocean with a laugh.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“heh heh alright” spyro said as he jumped into the water as well “hmm now where is he going to rise up at” he said

[macroneroyalcousins]

After a good few moments, the yoshi rose ‘majestically’ from the water, raising his head up and spitting a stream of seawater into the air like a fountain. He then laughed as he leaned backwards into the water and began backstroking.

“Ahh… Feels good to get in a refreshing dip,” he cheered as he swam. “The water around here is fantastic!”

It was about mid-to-late afternoon by that point, so the sun was still high in the sky and providing heat to the island below. The water provided a cool contrast.

[superspyrothedragon9]

“heh heh so what do you do for fun rube or what did you do for fun when you were younger?” spyro asked curious about how the furry yoshi spends his time or used to spend it when he was younger

[macroneroyalcousins]

“Huh?” The yoshi stopped backstroking to look at him. “Ya wanna know about my childhood?” With a shrug, he gave off a disinterested snort.

“My childhood was pretty boring really… Mostly studies and fancy royal gatherings I had to ‘behave like a gentleman’ at… Most fun I had was when I had the free time to pull harmless pranks on the guards–keep ‘em on their toes–or when my cousin Leo could had time he could set aside to play with me…”

Smiling nostalgically, he leaned back into the water and mused, “Then things real interesting when Leo decided I should know how to fight when I get in trouble…”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“wait you’re royalty?” spyro asked shocked about that not knowing the furry yoshi was that kind of special

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube floated leisurely on his back. “Eh, technically...” He waved his hand in a so-so manner. “I am a relative of the royal family but, like...the extended family. Leo was the king, and his kids are the current rulers. As for me, I left to find a life of my own as a teenager...eventually settled down on this laid-back island.”

He then took a deep breath to hold it before dipping backwards, doing an underwater backflip, and then rising back over the surface again.

[macroneroyalcousins]

superspyrothedragon9:

“Hmm alright sure” spyro said “the beach right?”

[macroneroyalcousins]

superspyrothedragon9:

“Hmm ok” Spyro said as he went into the warp pipe.

The other end of the pipe was sticking out of a similar clearing, albeit seemingly further from the ocean. A few paths branched out here and there, and a sturdy log fence could be seen a fair distance away from the clearing. There was one large and opened gate in the middle of the fence.

“Well, there’s the White Shy Guy village,” Rube nodded to the fence the moment he hopped from the warp pipe after him. “It’s an easy walk to where the portal is, if you still wanna check that out first…”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“shy guys?” spyro asked “you mean….there is a village with nothing but people too shy to say hi?” he asked clearly not knowing what he meant by shy guy

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube scratched his head, looking hardly less loss than his own guest was. “Eh… I don’t really know what Shy Guys are, myself, to be honest… They’re these little guys, but they always wear these cloaks that cover their whole bodies and white masks that cover their faces, so…no one knows what they look like…” he explained awkwardly. “Most are troublemakers or align themselves with bad people, but not these guys.”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“….ok….so….umm let’s keep going” spyro said knowing this was one of those mysteries that just seem to be better left untouched

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube nodded dutifully and led the dragon down a path running parallel to the nearby village wall. They were walking for several more minutes through trees before Rube stopped in the middle of the trail and looked sideways.

“Aaaand…there it is.” Several feet away stood a weathered-looking, irregular rock formation sticking out of the ground and surrounded by tall grass. Rube strolled comfortably around to the other side of the big rock, where it had a large and wide crack down the middle.

There was a field of energy within the crack, through which one could see a thin cluster of trees on the other side. The were clearly different kinds, however, than what were on the island. One could just make out where that forest on the other side ended.

Rube glanced aside to Spyro with an apologetic smile. “I could let you take a peek from a distance if you want…but I don’t think we’d be allowed that far into town. Macrone’s dress code is a bit stricter than Yoshi’s Island, y’see…”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“oh…ok” he said he didn’t know he would’ve offended people with how he looked

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube rubbed the back of his neck, staring through the portal to his native homeland and back to Spyro. “Yeah… I should probably wear something more concealing before we go there,” he said, as he was technically–by Macronite cultural standards–naked. “And maybe check with my relatives there how the rules would apply to someone like you.” Spyro’s unique anatomy made figuring that out a bit more complicated.

“But hey, that’s for another time then!” he grinned, pointing in the general direction back towards the warp pipe. “I can take ya back to the beach, and we can have some fun there!”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“hmm alright…….not sure how I would be able to get in touch with your family in a town I might get in trouble for just walking in because of my appreance….heh a friend of mine might be interesting to try to get in to that town” spyro said trying to imagine how it would even be possible to tell if his best friend had clothing on from a distance

[macroneroyalcousins]

“I’ll handle this; don’t worry,” he chuckled with a smile. He did, however, for a moment or so, take some time to rather conspicuously check Spyro’s body over. Eyeballing for measurements just in case, maybe?

Grinning, Rube was turning to return to the path the moment he finished, “But what say we go have some fun now instead?”

[macroneroyalcousins]

superspyrothedragon9:

“Hmm ok” Spyro said as he went into the warp pipe.

The other end of the pipe was sticking out of a similar clearing, albeit seemingly further from the ocean. A few paths branched out here and there, and a sturdy log fence could be seen a fair distance away from the clearing. There was one large and opened gate in the middle of the fence.

“….ok….so….umm let’s keep going” spyro said knowing this was one of those mysteries that just seem to be better left untouched

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube nodded dutifully and led the dragon down a path running parallel to the nearby village wall. They were walking for several more minutes through trees before Rube stopped in the middle of the trail and looked sideways.

“Aaaand…there it is.” Several feet away stood a weathered-looking, irregular rock formation sticking out of the ground and surrounded by tall grass. Rube strolled comfortably around to the other side of the big rock, where it had a large and wide crack down the middle.

There was a field of energy within the crack, through which one could see a thin cluster of trees on the other side. The were clearly different kinds, however, than what were on the island. One could just make out where that forest on the other side ended.

Rube glanced aside to Spyro with an apologetic smile. “I could let you take a peek from a distance if you want…but I don’t think we’d be allowed that far into town. Macrone’s dress code is a bit stricter than Yoshi’s Island, y’see…”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“oh…ok” he said he didn’t know he would’ve offended people with how he looked

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube rubbed the back of his neck, staring through the portal to his native homeland and back to Spyro. “Yeah... I should probably wear something more concealing before we go there,” he said, as he was technically--by Macronite cultural standards--naked. “And maybe check with my relatives there how the rules would apply to someone like you.” Spyro’s unique anatomy made figuring that out a bit more complicated.

“But hey, that’s for another time then!” he grinned, pointing in the general direction back towards the warp pipe. “I can take ya back to the beach, and we can have some fun there!”

[macroneroyalcousins]

superspyrothedragon9:

“Hmm ok” Spyro said as he went into the warp pipe.

The other end of the pipe was sticking out of a similar clearing, albeit seemingly further from the ocean. A few paths branched out here and there, and a sturdy log fence could be seen a fair distance away from the clearing. There was one large and opened gate in the middle of the fence.

“Well, there’s the White Shy Guy village,” Rube nodded to the fence the moment he hopped from the warp pipe after him. “It’s an easy walk to where the portal is, if you still wanna check that out first…”

[superspyrothedragon9]

“shy guys?” spyro asked “you mean….there is a village with nothing but people too shy to say hi?” he asked clearly not knowing what he meant by shy guy

[macroneroyalcousins]

Rube scratched his head, looking hardly less loss than his own guest was. “Eh… I don’t really know what Shy Guys are, myself, to be honest… They’re these little guys, but they always wear these cloaks that cover their whole bodies and white masks that cover their faces, so…no one knows what they look like…” he explained awkwardly. “Most are troublemakers or align themselves with bad people, but not these guys.”
