Favorite Objects: Edgar’s two favorite objects are an orb that gives off a soft, baby blue glow in the moonlight tied to his tail (that he had with him ever since…who knows when) and a bracelet with a handmade clay star charm that has “E.B.B” engraved in it and a small bit of an abalone shell made by a friend.

How I was Raised:

[ Told by Edgar ]
═════════════════════
I was raised by a boy named James and his Papa that I call Papa too. I have been with them ever since I can remember. James and his Papa are like family now. They gave me a place to stay in their home and in their hearts, and I love them like family now! They are really nice people and I think they are the best people in the world.

Papa is so cool. He’s smart, kind, strong, and there’s nothing he can’t do. He works in a ship, and he sometimes takes me and James out to show us what he does. He usually works on the ship, cleaning and making sure everything is going smoothly, but sometimes he hauls up a big net that is full of fish to sell for the markets and stuff. It’s really heavy—I tried once to help, but I couldn’t. So that day, I said I’m going to grow up to be as strong as Papa! I told Papa and he said that maybe I’m not strong today, but tomorrow I will be stronger and stronger until one day I’m as big as him!

Sometimes, when Papa stops at a port to drop off some of his “cargo” as he put it, James and I go to the beach and collect cool things. I once found a cool spiral shell and James found a really cool shell with lots of different colors! When we showed it to Papa, he said it was an abalone shell. James and I thought it was so cool, we decided to keep it.

James kept it in his room and wherever he went. I wanted to see it too, but sometimes James wouldn’t let me see it and he’d keep it all to himself. I told Papa and said he was being mean, and so Papa tried to tell James to show it to me too. He said no, and so I got angry and tried to take it out of his hand but it flew out of both of our hands and it broke into two pieces when it fell to the ground. James and I both started crying, so Papa gave us a big hug and said that it’s okay and that we learned our lesson. We wiped off our tears and we each took a piece of the abalone shell.

A few days later, when I was sitting in a little corner looking at my piece of shell, James tapped me on the shoulder and said if he could talk to me for a second. I sniffled and said he could, and he gave a small smile as he held up his piece of the abalone shell, made into a little charm for a bracelet. I almost started crying and I crashed into him as I gave him a big hug. And when we were done hugging, I gave him my piece of shell and said, “Since you gave me your piece, I guess I should give you my piece.” We made a bracelet for me to wear for it, and we both laughed and played together the rest of the day. It became one of my favorite memories.

Papa is a sailor and he loves the ocean and looking at the stars. When it’s night time and Papa has free time, he likes to sit outside as we all cuddle with each other. I once asked Papa why he likes the ocean. He replied, “It’s because there’s so many undiscovered things out there. I enjoy going out to the ocean to have adventures.” James and I nodded and I asked why he liked looking at the stars too. He said, “If you think about it, those stars are millions and millions of miles, and even light years away! To know that it’s all out there, and you’re here, makes you want to learn more about them. That’s what I think.” I nodded again and said, “Yeah, it’s really cool…” And then I asked him out of the two, which one he liked. “That’s tricky,” he had said, “but I have to go with looking at the stars. With the ocean, if you look out into the ocean, it’s bound to end somewhere. Even though Earth is big, the ocean does have an end. With the stars and space and universe, not even scientists know whether or not it even ends! And I think that’s incredible. We live in an incredible world, and I feel that every time that I look at the night sky. That’s why I would have to say that looking at the night sky is better than the ocean.” James and I listened in awe. We had never thought about it that way before! “Wow,” James said, “I will never think of the night sky the same way again.” I nodded and said, “Me too! I would like to go to space, I think.” James and Papa laughed and gave me a big hug. “And you probably will, Edgar.” Suddenly, a shooting star flew across the sky and James said, “Quick! Wish upon the shooting star, everybody!” And everybody wished upon the star. After that night, I saw the night sky in a new way, thanks to Papa.

A few months later, James got a book about the stars and constellations and galaxies. One day, James woke me up and set the book in front of me. “Let’s look at pictures and stuff about stars!” he said, opening it to a random page. I rubbed my eyes and looked at the pages. They were so pretty. There were things I never saw in the night sky. The book said you couldn’t see some of them because they were just too far away. A telescope up in space had taken these pictures. I suddenly got excited and pointed to pictures with James and giggled and gasped in awe as we looked at the pictures. We flipped to a picture of the constellation Orion. It listed the names of the stars in the constellation. One of them was “Bellatrix.” I looked at it and said, “That’s a cool name… I wish I had that name.” James looked at me and said, “Well, you’re only called Edgar. We should give you another name! And you said you liked the name ‘Bellatrix,’ so you can be ‘Edgar Bellatrix!’” I thought about it and then beamed. “Yeah!” I exclaimed. “That’s awesome!” Then James frowned, and said, “But that’s unfair. I have a first, middle, and last name. James Tomas Elmerick. You need a last name!” I thought about it again and nodded. “I want a last name too,” I said, and we began to flip through the book for other cool names. We went through Andromeda, Ursa Major, Aquarius, Pinwheel…until we came up to a galaxy named ‘Bode’s Galaxy.’ I thought it was so cool looking, with the spiral and for some reason, I thought it was really ‘mesmerizing’ (I used a word my Papa used!). James nodded and announced, “I now proclaim you to be ‘Edgar Bellatrix Bode!’” I said the name a few times and then beamed proudly. I am now Edgar Bellatrix Bode! We went to Papa and said, “Edgar is now ‘Edgar Bellatrix Bode,’ Papa!” He chuckled and hugged me saying, “That’s a wonderful name, Edgar!” he said. James said he helped and he laughed and scooped us both up and hugged us. James later gave me a little clay star charm that had “E.B.B” written on it. “You are now officially Edgar Bellatrix Bode!” he exclaimed. We put it on the bracelet that had the abalone shell on it and I wore it around proudly the rest of the day (and I will probably wear it around the rest of my life too!). That was the day I was officially Edgar Bellatrix Bode, and not just ‘Edgar.’

I’m still with James and Papa and I’m learning new stuff every day! Papa recently gave me and James a telescope so we can look at the stars more detailed. Papa is now also the captain of the ship and he now takes us on trips on his ship, and he likes to show us what he does on the ship. He’s now much busier now that he’s captain, but he always makes sure that he watches the stars with us. We told him he has to watch the stars with us at least two times a week, if not a lot more. He laughs and says he’ll try, and he does. On those nights, we like to cuddle and try to find shapes and pictures in the sky. And there’s sometimes the rare shooting star. We all wish for something when we see one.
What do I wish for?
…It’s a secret!

Don’t Stop Me Now – By Queen

════════════════════════

Tonight I'm gonna have myself a real good time
I feel alive and the world it's turning inside out Yeah!
I'm floating around in ecstasy
So don't stop me now don't stop me
'Cause I'm having a good time, having a good time

I'm a shooting star leaping through the skies
Like a tiger defying the laws of gravity
I'm a racing car passing by like Lady Godiva
I'm gonna go go go
There's no stopping me

I'm burning through the skies Yeah!
Two hundred degrees
That's why they call me Mister Fahrenheit
I'm trav'ling at the speed of light
I wanna make a supersonic man of you!

Don't stop me now I'm having such a good time
I'm having a ball don't stop me now
If you wanna have a good time just give me a call
Don't stop me now ('Cause I'm having a good time)
Don't stop me now (Yes I'm having a good time)
I don't want to stop at all!

════════════════════════

This song best expresses his spontaneous enthusiasm at times.
Whether it be because of a sudden determination to do something
or just because he's having a fun time with his friends, it seems
as if nothing can stop him. Despite how he may seem a bit mellow,
when he gets excited enough, he is a little ball of energy that doesn't
want sit still!

The Vault of Dreams:

I heard that if you tied something to yourself, you can remember stuff. So I tied my orb to my tail so I can remember all the dreams I had!

The star that got away…almost.

It starts off with me, stargazing as usual. It’s seemingly normal, until a shooting star blazes across the horizon. I follow it for a while, and then it starts going faster and faster and faster until I have to run my fastest to even try to catch up to it. Now, I’m running so fast that I can even zip across the water! The star then twinkles and drifts down onto my snout like a butterfly. I smile and just when I try to catch it with my paw, it bounces out of sight and skips across the water. I try to run across the water again, but this time, as I run, I slowly feel my whole body rising and rising, until I can fly and zip around like the star that’s running away.

The star likes to trick me. When I’m just that close to catching the star, the star jumps away at that exact moment, telling me to catch it soon! I would get a bit tired and stop to rest a bit, whether it be on a cloud, on the water, wherever it was, but the bright twinkling of the star motivated me to try to capture it. So even though I felt sore, I would go on. Every time I made that decision, I felt a surge of energy flow through me. I felt determined to catch this star, no matter what!

After that, I’d jump up and soar through the sky, making a blazing path behind me like I’m two hundred degrees, and I’d be so fast, I would start racing it. The star would start to twinkle less and less until I’m far ahead of it. I’d feel really proud of myself and then…
I’d stop suddenly, so the star crashes into me because it’s going so fast. I would stretch out my arms like I’m Papa waiting for James to crash into his arms for a big hug and then CRASH! the star would crash into my arms. I would then giggle and hug the star as close to me as I can. The star glows softly and then I hug it even tighter. And then I whisper my life long wish to make it come true one day.
And then I wake up, with determination to start off the day and strive to make my wish come true.

I quite like that dream.

How I was Raised:
I was raised to be loyal and honest to friends and family and to be weary of strangers. I was raised by an elder JBD that taught me about astronomy, astronomy's connection to magic, and how it all is used. He also taught me about the history of JBD's and how they came to be (the first beans, Anu, the first female, and Brawnen, the first male, were brought to Earth by the man in the moon and the stars guided them until they found their permanent home in a large desert oasis).
Favorite Objects:
An obsidian pyramid and a dark blue crystal shard necklace given to her by the elder JBD that raised her.

Username:
Bati

Name:
Ochita Hoshi

Name Meaning:
The name in Japanese means Fallen star. Ochita is fallen, and it pronounced as (och-i-ta), and the second is pronouced as seen. The reason I picked the name is because he was truely a star that fell from the sky's dead night. He was born of this world, but to me, I thought he was a fallen star that was given. Even the little bean himself thinks so. His nicknames are Ochi, Hoshi, Titi, Or Fallen as his English name.

Gender:
I think I see him as a male ♂ gender.

Age:
He is ten years old, and is growing as the years go on.

How I was Raised:
Ochi can remember the days of his early life very well, yet it was not the way some others might know. He was separated from his sibling at an early age. He ran off from his mother, and his idea to exploring lead him to a dragon den to where their he forgot his memories for a while due to the power of the constellation. He was raised not only by a dragon, but a dragon named Draco, and yet even while living with the large beast that was unlike himself he found out then he was not just a dragon but the fallen constellation Draco. He was taught at an early age by the old dragon beast, to study the stars for they held life in each bright shining one, to never look at the sun for it was too great to behold, and the moon was the light that guided all though the darkness as a dark light. The dragon was of old age, and one night Ochi can remember the dragon coming out from his cave to stare at the stars with a sad smile. Ochi followed, and asked him what was wrong at the tiny hours of the night. Draco looked at him with his eyes of blue fire before sighing gently as he tilted his head towards the moonless sky. "I am begin forgotten young one. My life is fading away as people forget about me. I am Draco the group of stars the last bright star on this earth that is a dragon from the group. The rest of my kind died away, and I can't give the other dragons and humans life anymore by my old age," he said with a sigh. Ochi didn't know much about the Draco group of stars, but he knew his friend enough that he couldn't stand to see him begin hurt. "Draco, why don't I get them to believe again? I got the spirit, you said so yourself, why can't I be the one to help them better understand the stars?" Draco looked at the young dragon with his pelt of pure black with no light on it, and shook his head. "Not possible, how can a little one like you do it?" Ochi backed up from his master and looked at the ground with confusion. "I am a dragon, I can help you with this task Draco. Let me do so, for you," Draco shook his head before bringing it down to nuzzle his head softly with his large nose. "You show determination to not be denied, very well. You Ochita Hoshi will be a fallen star. A descendent of the constellation Draco meaning dragon. I will give you a pelt of stars that is symbol of the light in your heart, and from this moment on you will be the one born of the starlight in an old dragon's heart. That night Ochi didn't feel much of a change to himself as he fell asleep, but as he did so Draco faded away from his mind, and the old tales became lost to him as he woke up the next morning with his memory changed. He was a JBD, but he didn't have any recollection of the old dragon, old tale, or even how he earned the stars that shined against his black pelt. He was a fallen star and forgot his master, but his spirit of determination for the love of the night still remained and his hope to remember them in his heart. Then on, he went into the world of humans and other beans to find myself and be new friends with his young age. He was a star of Draco, and that night even the constellation made him forget in an act to make him the best of all. Now as he grows the marking on his face expands to soon overtake the design on his body. The design will connect to the dots and form his very own star design, himself as one in a million, and when it finishes he will gain back every single memory.

Quirks:
✯ Vampire-ish (Night Bean, sleeps during the day, fasciation for drinking red Cool-aid.)
This little bean is not a full vampire, but he could be considered one. He likes to sleep during the day and stay up though the night to either read, star gaze, explore, or do his games. He never usually likes to wake up during the day and will get quite upset if you wake him up during the day. Yet, he will be up at night into the early morning. At times he might sleep at night, but this is rare since he has developed a habit. Although, he will sleep during the night if I tell him, he will listen, but he still will stay awake really. wip~
✯ Likes Christmas Lights
He can't help near Christmas that he will take the lights and cover himself in them. He has a stash under his bed and likes to sometimes to come out of his room with his body flashing like a tree. I think it is because he is afraid of the dark and he likes the colors, but I really don't know why he loves the lights so much because he won't tell.
✯ Is a bit nervous of the dark
✯ Likes Fish as a Food
✯ Can Sing Japanese
✯ Has Problems with short term memories

Personality:
Main traits: Curious, Courageous, Fighter, Playful, Caring
Curious-
Ochi is what you call a curious bean with no limit to finding out the world in his own special way. This is partly the reason why he has a desire to always be with the stars since he feels so different from the rest of them, but at the same time this little bean wants to know as much as he can about the world. He has watched the National Geographic channel many times and is always learning new things about the world's special land and creatures that he has yet to find. So, if he ever did go on an adventure to a new country he might wander off by all the sights. This is a reason we use a leash on him at times, but he is earning slowly to stay nearby even if he sees something new and cool.
Courageous and Never Gives Up-
Ochi is a very brave boy and doesn't back down from anything that he sets his mind to. He won't give up for anything that he desires, and he is not afraid to face the fears in is life to achieve his dream. He might still be young, but this boy has a heart of a lion that can't be taken away from him no matter the challenges in life that face him. He always wants to try and do the right thing, save another, and feel the warmth of having a smile brought to life on someone's face that he could do. This young bean might not know much about the traits of courage, but even now he stills tries to be brave for another bean or person in his life.
Playful-
Ochi is playful little soul who enjoys to have fun like any other young bean. He likes fun little jokes, tricks, and at times to be noticed too when he does something wrong. The bean will be playful at times, but knows also when to get serious. Yet, with his nature of a lucky little guy he usually does his duty while in this trait most of the time.
Caring-
Ochi is a caring boy and will always be their for another person no matter how wrong they might be.


Favorite Objects:
[size=92]This little boy just loves his star map that he brings with him everywhere. It helped him find a family, and thus it gives him some since of luck to have it with him from the moment he found his home and owner. Ochi also wears a small bit of glowing worm inside a bottle on his neck. The reason he picked this is because of the glow it gives off. The little boy thinks of it as his own mini star light, and keeps it near him to keep him safe, and to him it also glows like the beat of his heart as if it was alive. Mostly, it is a symbol, but he enjoys it either way. His last object is something he keeps at home. His telescope. I got it for him when he first arrived and he sadly complained he couldn't see the moon up close and the stars detailed. So, I went out to the nearest store and bought him a telescope for his welcome home gift. He went crazy and spent an entire night into the wee hours of morning to watch the stars with his personal one nearby, star map, and me watching with him. These are his person and favorite objects he loves.

She who watches the stars

Username:

Sir Swift

Name:
Auva

Name Meaning:

Delta Virginis (δ Vir, δ Virginis) is a star in the zodiac constellation of Virgo. It has the traditional name Auva. With an apparent visual magnitude of 3.4, this star is bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Based upon parallax measurements, it is located at a distance of about 198 light-years (61 parsecs) from Earth.

Gender:
Female

Age:
11

How I was Raised:

I was raised at the Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii, by a kindly young couple of the names Konani and Maleko. They lived and worked at the observatory and taught me of the stars. Konani's favourite star was Auva, and she named me after it. I had no name - that I knew of - and told her so. So she took it upon herself to name me, and did so. Now that I possessed a name, Konani and Maleko began to introduce me to the workers at the observatory.

They all took a great liking to me, especially a woman by the name of Hokulani. She was so kind to me, baked me cookies, told me stories, took me on walks. She had a dog by the name of Nemo. He was small, extremely hairy, and a bit of a tyke. He didn't like me very much, and I can't say I felt anything other than the purest hatred of him. He was quite big, and used to chase me up and down the beach, snapping at my heels and growling.

Hokulani soon figured out that we hated each others' guts, and locked Kimo in the house every time we went out. Then one day the inevitable happened. Hokulani had accidentally left the back door open, and Kimo got out and hared after us. I must say, what a shock it gave us. I was off like a shot, Kimo close behind. Poor Hokulani was left to trail behind us, calling the dog's name in vain. We raced along, past the place where we usually turned back, and on into unknown sands. The ground went from solid and damp to soft and dry.

I turned my head slightly to see how close Kimo was, and suddenly I felt myself plummeting downwards. I landed in a puddle of sea water at the bottom of a hole, sand all over me. Kimo fell down behind me with a bark of surprise. I managed to scramble out of the way just before he landed. What an uproar! He sat up and immediately began to wail his head off, as if he were a little baby pup. Ridiculous! Hokulani came running up and peered into the hole to see what all the fuss was about.

Favorite Objects:

My favourite objects? Well...

Item 1. - My Telescope - Maleko gave it to me on the evening of my 10th birthday. He, Konani and I sat and watched the stars together through it.

Item 2. - My Kaleidoscope - I found it one day when I was walking along the beach. Someone must have dropped it.

Item 3. - My Calculator - An odd item to love, really... Konani gave it to me. She said it was her fathers, told me to treasure it. So treasure it I do.

Item 4. - My Thermometer - Another obscure favourite. Can't really explain why I love it so. This thermometer is not for medical uses. It is for measuring the climate of the atmosphere and the ocean. Quite a useful little gizmo when you're about to take a swim in potentially freezing, or boiling, waters.

Personality:
Extra 1
Calm /\ Sensible /\ Logical /\ Polite /\ Cold

Calm
Auva is very calm at all times. She keeps a level head and clear mind, so when trouble comes along she can deal with it in a calm manner.

Logical
