Introduction post!

Hello, my name is Echo! I run this blog, and I created Caiden and Jaiden, aka the bups. A couple years ago, before I left for college, a friend of mine gifted me a doll of them. I take the doll almost everywhere with me, and I like to take photos of them in various places. This blog is dedicated to sharing those photos!

Caiden has brown eyes/brown hair, Jaiden has green eyes/black hair.

Questions and Answers

Q: Why are they called the bups/bup doll? A: One of the first drawings I did of them, I drew them at a bus stop. After seeing a photo that said "bup stop", I thought it'd be funny to make the sign say "bup stop."

Q: Why do they have two heads?

A: Its just a design choice I made. I wanted to make them look unique. I have no process behind my characters lol

Q: Why did the formatting change after the first Q/A? A: Because I don't know how formatting on Tumblr works

Q: You're weird for making a blog dedicated to a doll of your OCs A: Dandori issue

They've got hats! I picked out the fabric and buttons, and my mom sewed them. I'm so happy with how they look!!

This is the only hat I have that fits them, and I'm going to try to measure it so I can make more. They look so cute it in!

Ignore the "cringe". Carry that plushie around.

Really. I've taken Caiden and Jaiden everywhere with me for a bit over 3 years. The worst reaction I've gotten is people staring. Majority of the time, people will just ignore it.

But then there's the times I've had people come up to me and tell me how cool my plush looks. Or ask questions like how I got it, is it based on anything, etc. When I tell them its my own characters, they think its awesome. Take your favorite anime doll to class. Sit down to eat with one of your stuffed animals.

I'm posting this because I saw someone post about how their waitress brought a booster seat for their Pomni plush, and someone else said they needed to "act like an adult." Don't let anyone tell you to lose that inner child. Its more fun being "cringe" than trying to be "normal."

Couple years ago. I don't remember how I got that little sword glowstick, but it fit perfectly

Usually they stay in my backpack, but sometimes I buckle them in the front seat of my car. I mainly do it when I have a long drive by myself

This is what I use for my profile pic + close ups of the bracelets themselves. The bracelets are cute head pieces, but eventually I'm gonna make them some actual hats! Since they're a custom made doll, standard stuff doesn't fit (except for 1 hat I found)

First year of college, I was waiting to get my stuff to move in. I was playing with them to calm down about how big of a deal this was. I think they looked cute in my hat lol
