Cat's Chimerical Creations Lore: Nublet
This is Nublet the Walking Fish:
When he was very small, he was travelling with his mummy when they were caught in a flash flood. While Mumsivore managed to get Nublet onto a floating piece of driftwood, a huge wave struck before she was able to climb aboard herself and the two were swept away and seperated.
Nublet floated for many days and many nights, eventually washing ashore on a stony beach in the Isle of Man. He was hungry, cold, wet, and missing his mummy terribly. He gripped his back toes with his front paws, curled himself into a tight ball, and began to roll.
He rolled and he rolled and he rolled, and finally he bumped up against a plain white door with a peeling-paint doorstep, which is where we found him.
He arrived in November, just as our household was switching over from watching horror movies and getting cozy to celebrate Halloween, to watching horror movies and getting cozy to celebrate Christmas.
Nublet's big blue eyes drank in the twinkling lights and shimmering tinsel, the televised gore, the heaped mounds of plushie brothers and sisters crowding the back of the sofa and tumbling down to lay amidst the cushions.
He was invited to a sleepover by some of his brothers, but misunderstood when someone told him sleepovers weren't for sleeping and tried to stay awake forever. Luckily Chimble and Chomble, the two headed pigs that love nothing more than snoozing, were able to teach him their Sleeping Ways.
Minty the Minotaur, self-appointed Spookums King, explained horror movies and all things Spooky to him. Nublet decided he would be a Spookums King aswell, and after a brief moment of "woeing" over the loss of his power, Minty agreed this would be fine.
When January came and the Christmas decorations were packed away, Nublet became very upset. We gave him a piece of emotional support tinsel to tide him over until the season returned, which he held onto for a long time. These days it mostly stays inside Fattiyeti's suitcase, but Nublet does get it out occasionally when he's feeling bad.
We figured from his wings that Nublet would probably be able to fly once he got older, but were suprised to learn that he was also an airbender. When watching the Legend of Aang, Nublet casually mentioned "I can do that" and proceeded to airbend a few of his brothers off the couch.
Nublet enjoys being taken on trips to Spookums Places (even if he does have to stop Minty from putting "lies" in witch bottles every time they go to a churchyard together), cuddling with his brothers and wearing his Christmas hat at all times.
Nublet and Tulip the Stranger Things Demodog help Bill from Billing put up Christmas lights:
Nublet, Minty, Fattiyeti and Uncle Cornelias Minty the Ghost Ancestor take a trip to the graveyard (it was raining so they used a Marksies bag as their picnic blanket)
