Those eyes!! <3

I was just reading Dama’s bio, and when I went back to it, it changed

F=15
T=3452452
first page

The T, if I am reading it correctly, links to this pet. It could be something else but it’s a start

https://www.chickensmoothie.com/viewpet.php?id=%203452452


Now to figure out the F and first page...

edit

Perhaps it means the 2015 staff pup

i believe it's actually a post link!

f= forum
t= thread

the link to threads has f=(number)&t=(number) in the URL! if you input 15 and 3452452 into the cs link, it leads to this thread. i can't find anything that stands out on the first page yet though!

p.s. the link looks like this: Forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=3452452

Regarding Dama's thread, this is the hidden text:

“As these creatures grow, [redacted] shed from their bodies. When they reach adulthood, the [redacted] bloom all over like a bird’s plumage”

I'm not much of a guesser, but thought I would leave this here for those who are!

It sounds like molting!
Maybe the pet would molt depending on species that they are referenced from?
I haven't got a clue as to which pet it may be :'>

Also worth noting that this outcome has a lot of similarities to this one (Dama's from last year):


The style of the lineart edits are very similar, and it has a gradient/colored tag. :^)

[Bernouli]

I'm revisiting Bernouli's clues today as I keep wondering if it might be either the aquapup (doesn't quite fit with the clues... yet unless it's something to do with strong swimming and water-trails, although the lack of a tail is one of those things that keeps dragging me back to it) or the palest pup



"• Hint #1: ""This one's mine, it's exuding positive wispy energy""
(as many of the staffers were grabbing pups and sticking dress-ups on at the time I think it is a lovely example of early trolling. Gonna stick a bridge on this one and jump to the next clue.)

• Hint #2: Ghost of Tsushima GIF
• Hint #3: Picture with fox was posted on page 71!
I came across this offsite reference as well (ironically while I was looking up 'ghost fox' at the time because wispy energy, and fox hints.
a pale pup suggests spooky/ghost/spirit/wisps - also /foxfire/ the little lights that mislead travellers in the swamps/fens/bogs)

[i]• Hint #4: hm, staff, what would your pups talent be?
- Eat fifty eggs. Did you ever eat fifty eggs? Nobody ever eat fifty eggs. My boy says he can eat fifty eggs,
he can eat fifty eggs. A hour.
(oh is this the Cool Hand Luke clue that I saw being bandied about. I like the idea that this ties in with the pup being fox like again as foxes in the henhouse are reknowned for decimating the poultry products. Long shot thought, the skull relates to the fact that the pup is a ghost/spirit fox rather than being the literal skull. Which ties in nicely with the fact that the skull pup was denied as their outcome. If there is another meaning tie in with the clue I'm not versed enough with Cool Hand Luke to guess at it.)

• Hint #5: what does your pup smell like/of? Fresh dirt and incense
(Nearly left this one, but fresh dirt and incense are prevalent in funerary rites and graveyards. Again tying in with the ghostfox theme. Bernouli's Beetlejuice/BetelGeuse 'ghost' pic could be another clue towards that tricky ghost aspect)

• Hint #6: Gif of a Cat dressed up with samurai armour - Pg 111
(I know it's relevant, but I'm not sure how yet)

• Hint #7: Teasing Gif as a respond to a pup guess - Pg 126"
(I get the sense that these tie in with a the mischievious foxfire theme going on or just a general 'no, you're not quite on the right track with this guess response)

Here we go then, Bernouli, is the pale pup yours then?
