Nagaline: lilli
Prompt:
spring. flowers, leaves growing on the trees, the world coming into bloom. What was there not to like about spring.
the temperatures, with a slight breeze and the warm sun shining down once more almost summer like without the humidity and sweat.
Longer days, more hours to work, more time to spend in the windowsill writing and bathing in the warm light and soft ambiance that spring comes with. Instead of sitting at a desk in the dark hunched over, writing to no avail with a gloomy mindset dreaming of warm sunny days.
the sights of others walking around enjoying the weather, the views, the smells, the sun, enjoying spring after months of snow was enough inspiration for her. She could write on end just watching those who too enjoyed spring as much as she did even if she didn't view it for herself.
She had to admit not everything was grand about spring, the allergies and sudden busyness. The city that was once calm and serene suddenly buzzing with constant activity. it was nice to see the quiet city that felt of sorrow and an over-looming sense of dread suddenly very lively and excited but the noise was sudden and often cut into her writing. Shouting and sirens would cut through her concentration like a knife cutting through soft butter.
But books filled with gentle poems and small lively doodles, the smell of flora and grass on the air, the active city below chattering with excitement. She loved it all, even though it had its flaws

Nagaline: Zacharie

Prompt:
How does Zacharie feel about spring? [Minimum of 200+ words]

Zach always hated the cold, always hated being cold. The harsh and unforgiving winter air would always pull him down into the grumpiest depths his mind could offer. Even if he bundled up in lots of warm clothing he would never feel warm, never feel comfortable.
So when he took his first step into the sun and felt warm, the relief he felt was unable to be put into words. His mind did a 180 from grumpy to ecstatic at the fact he could now enjoy the outdoors again.
There were millions of activities and plans running rapid fire in his mind.
He could go to the park.
He could plant his small backyard garden.
He could hang out with his friends without bringing their moods down with his.
Rushing back inside he started making plans with his friends among lots of solo plans for himself. Mixing his schedule with work and play. Soon his calendar was full, and he jumped around with joy, feeling a sense of comfort he hadn't felt in months. Rushing outside he basked yet again in the fresh spring air and sighed in contentment. He could feel the sun's rays lying soft on his back, warming him up with their soft touches.
It was then and only then he heard a faint buzzing sound.
Panic set in as quickly as his previous mood change, forcing him to look for the source of the dreaded buzzing. A small but notable wasp's nest hang in the corner of his porch.
Oh no, the one downside to spring...

Nagaline: Cygnus
Prompt:

Despite looking like a rather strong, intimidating figure, Cygnus is quite the softie... who's favorite season, incidentally, is spring. Dwelling mostly within the shadows means that your home can get quite chilling in the winter, especially when you have no one to share it with. Once spring rolls around though, other nagalines come out to play! Cygnus's cool cavern is suddenly filled with fragile budding flowers and berry bushes sprouting wonderful new hues. Cygnus, of course, takes utmost care to make sure each lovely little sprig gets enough love to carry it through the season.

Quite characteristic to his lookalike, Cygnus yearns for a traveling partner. Springtime is the perfect opportunity for this! Many other nagalines come out to enjoy the warm golden rays of the sun and bask in each other's company. Cygnus quite enjoys leaving little surprises for them... though he looks like a trickster, he doesn't intend to play any jokes! He leaves small scraps of fabric and brightly colored papers, occasionally small bouquets or bundles of seeds and dried flowers. Though many nagalines are wary around Cygnus because of his rather rugged, nearly feral looks, he doesn't mind watching from a distance. He quite enjoys bringing a smile to other's faces! Cygnus knows one day the right nagaline will come along to share the flower fields with him, and for now this thought keeps him company. Cygnus quite enjoys spring, but he did wish there wasn't so much pollen involved. His constant sneezing and ruffled fur does nothing to convince other nagas that he's quite friendly - and the bright pollen clumped in his muted, rather dark fur makes him look a little like a big, bumbling bee.

Nagaline: Mochi
Prompt:
Mochi is a naga of very few words, but he makes up for that in leaps and bounds when it comes to his big heart.

From watching little ducklings emerge from their eggs, to meeting little puppies and kittens that are seeing the world for the first time, he has to say that his absolute favourite Spring time tradition is baking his favourite sweet treats for his friends and selling some to raise money to buy easter eggs for the orphanage.

He also spends a fair amount of time raising and caring for a fair amount of plants, where he'll weave spring flowers into flower crowns or pretty bouquets for the sick snittens to brighten their lil days <3

Nagaline: Setter
Prompt:
Setter has many different spring traditions with his family. The most important tradition he has involves him, his father Asmodeus, a bonfire, friends, and a guitar! Setter considers the tradition as the "Yearly Spring Gathering."The tradition has gone on for as long as Setter can remember, he recalls on every spring equinox he and his father would gather around a large bonfire with friends. They would eat some delicious treats then sit on stumps ready to play games. Before the games would start, one nagaline would pull out a guitar and they would sing songs while the nagaline played. Last year Setter's best friend had the chance to play, this year it was Setter's turn. The night of the equinox Setter played his heart out! It was only the second time he had gotten the chance to, so he was extremely excited. The nagalines sang, danced, and had so much fun! After Setter finished playing, they commenced the games. However, during the games Setter's guitar was damaged, now he is hoping to get a new one. This tradition is always something Setter looks forward to, and he hopes to carry it on for as long as he can. He cherishes all the memories he has made throughout this tradition, and always holds them close to his heart. (217)

Nagaline: Tyani
Prompt:

Out of all the things that happen within the spring season, one of Tyani’s favorite things to do is to attend the yearly renaissance festival that occurs within the town she lives in. She sees it as one of the only times she can truly dress differently and not feel the harsh criticisms that could occur. She isn’t the bravest of souls when it comes to dealing with how others feel about her, and she tends to keep he true self hidden within, however the renaissance aids with her slight discomfort.

She tends to spend a single week within the grounds, exploring different parts of the park each day. In terms of her attendance she tends to go all out. With each part being dedicated to a certain theme she tries her hardest to match those themes, and over the years she has acquired quite the costume closet. The different types of people she meets within these days always help her build confidence not only in her costuming abilities, but to help her get more comfortable with showing the world what a weirdo she can be and the magical fairy that she truly is. She hasn’t missed a year since and doesn’t plan on starting to miss out anytime soon.

Nagaline: Ghost
Prompt:
Every year,on the first day of Spring, Ghost takes her girlfriend, Reina out on a peaceful date. She has every event planned out and is well prepared. They usually make flower crowns together from the freshly picked first flowers of Spring. Ghost models each one and totally rocks the look. Making flower crowns always puts a smile on her face. They then go on a picnic and share tasty treats and sweets that their owners helped them make for each other. After that, they hunt for bugs and try to see who can catch the biggest one; Reina usually wins the title of bug champion. If there are any boat races going on around that time, they also enter for a grand prize which Ghost has yet to win. The mischievous naga at flag 8 always causes a pileup and causes her boat to lose. After the boat race, they then take a nice, long nap snuggled up together in a cozy, fluffy naga ball. Once night time rolls around, they catch a bunch of fireflies to make lanterns with, then stargaze under the glow of the moon.
It’s a very eventful day that they both look forward to year round. (201 words)

Nagaline: Xeno
Prompt: [239]

Spring meant that the flowers were finally returning to the ground, and Xeno can finally get back to work. What work- one might ask, and he'd simply reply with 'Science.' Xeno's spring activities usually revolve around investigation and experimentation- though his favorite spring ritual is one he calls "The Seasonal Graph.". For a whole day, perhaps even two- the small male will run around and collect various items from the season. A ball of moss here, a spring flower there, and maybe even some drops of rain on a blade of grass. He brings them home, sets them on a table, and the graphing can begin.

He uses a microscope of his own design to look at what he's collected, going as far as he can to see the microscopic image of whatever he's found. He draws what he sees on each, labeling them as what they were in a larger state. He eventually puts them together on his walls, some of them go in orders, such as the parts of a flower. While others are more randomly strewn against the walls in no particular way. The main goal is simply to chart out the season- and show the health of the nature around him. He's done this for a long while, each season being documented- but spring is where he thinks it really shines.

He should probably stop trying to take other nagas' scales for his investigation, however.
