Foxifae

Facts
Foxifae are fox-sized mammals that have been recently discovered in many different environments around the globe. Usually shortened to “foxi,” the furry marsupials typically are found to keep an item in their pouch that has special meaning and value to them. While there is a common and ‘default’ breed of foxi, several different subtypes with traits adapted to their specific environments have been observed and more are being discovered all the time! They produce a fairy-dust of sorts that allows for brief flight and levitation despite their wing stubs not being fully developed. They are social animals that exhibit very human-like emotions, and even more surprisingly, perform selfless and heartfelt acts of kindness for and to support not only their fellow foxi, but other animals and even humans as well. They thrive off the affection and care of each other and it seems that family is by no way limited to blood in their communities. In fact, it seems that they've even began accepting complete outsiders into their communities, allowing for unprecedented opportunities for research of these fascinating creatures. Will you join us in our research of this amazing community?

prompt response; Fae's entire life revolves around being happy. Cheerful. Fun to be around. Never once has she made a frown, or was sad. Fae's mother even claimed she was born not crying, but smiling! The flower crown she wore has flowers from her childhood. It started out as one flower, then another, til it became the way you see it now. Fae hated to see any one down. When ever someone was down, she would try her best to cheer them up, successful most times. Although, all her life, some have spotted weird and odd behavior from her. Maybe an eye twitch, maybe they caught a glimpse of her frowning, but turned around and back, and saw her laughing at something again. Fae's mother and father have said they would occasionally hear someone outside crying, but there was nobody outside. Of course.. it couldn't be... Fae? The cheerful Fae.. crying? A friend of hers had said that maybe after all these years of being "happy", she may have pent up anger, but that was a rumor.

On one sunny day, Fae decided that she would spend some time in nature. She went out into her back yard, and into the forest that lies beyond it. She spent many hours in the grass, maybe rolling around, maybe staring up in the sun in thought. While walking, she encountered a... dead rose? A dead rose? She picked up the rose from the ground. She stared at it in her paws. All of a sudden, she just had a breakdown. That rose reminded her of all those years of being supposedly "happy and cheerful" and of all of the pent up anger she had. When she stopped crying, she put the rose in her pouch.

......and its been there ever since.

Packing

Today i'm going camping again!
I know, I know, it's not a surprise. But I feel like something big is going to happen while camping. I may be imagining things. I don't know. I'm packing everything right now. I'll write to you when i'm at the campsite.

9:30 AM
Arrived

I've arrived at the campsite.
It's eerily quiet. I wonder why nobody's here?
All I found was a dead rose. What could it mean?

10:29 AM
Finished Unpacking

I just finished unpacking and setting the tent up. Still, nobody has shown up. Does it have something to do with the dead rose?
I'm going crazy. This is the first time i've ever arrived at a campsite when nobody else is here. Why isn't anybody here? I'm confused.

12:00 N
Dead Rose

The dead rose is getting on my nerves. Why is it here? I already searched the area for the rosebush it fell off of, but there aren't any roses here. Did somebody come and leave it here? Did they get scared of something? So many questions, not enough answers.

12:09 PM
Noises

I just heard something rustling in the bushes. I feel like something is going to do something to me. I think it has something to do with the rose. But what?

3:25 PM
Settling In

I haven't heard anything else. The loneliness must be getting to me.
Anyways, I settled in and made a campfire. I'm making s'mores.

7:51 PM
Roses

I think I just saw somebody. Should I go investigate? No. I'll do it in the morning.
As for the rose, I stuck it in my pouch so I can research it when I get home.

11:59 PM
Leaving

I have to go now. Now before -=-=- gets me. I saw it. I saw it. I'm never going camping again. This is the last entry. I'm sorry, but I have to -=--=--=---=--=-=.

prompt response; The day I met him, my whole life was turned upside-down. Everything was different, but it was all the same. The changes he brought were unimaginably large, yet they were no bigger than the smallest grain of the sweetest sugar.

You see, Ry was dead.

I was taking one of my midnight walks, gazing up at the stars and planets littering the sky. As I wandered along the well-trodden path, I felt an extraordinary feeling. It was a feeling of immense sorrow, but that there was still a little hope left. Then I saw him. Ry was sitting next to a rose bush covered in blood-red roses. He held a single white rose in his mouth. He spoke to me in a quiet voice. “Would you like a rose?”
“I’d love one.” I said softly. “This is the most beautiful rose I’ve ever seen.” I took it from his mouth gently. Ry’s fur was an unearthly silver. The light that illuminated him seemed to come from someone else, and it was this light that made him the silver colour. His entire body was this colour or a shade of it, apart from his eyes. His eyes were a deep, sorrowful black.

We met at that bush every night after that. Every time he saw me come down the path, a little of the sadness in Ry’s eyes lifted. I kept the rose that he’d given me when we first met in my pouch, replacing whatever had been in there beforehand. One day, a few months after we’d first met, I took the rose out of my pouch to examine it. As I admired it, a single petal fell from the delicate flower. As it fell, I knew that something was wrong with Ry.

I sprinted down the path that night, hoping that Ry was there, hoping that he was okay. I spotted him and a wave of relief washed over me, but his eyes told the whole story. Something was wrong, but he didn’t tell me. He knew that I knew. That night, we sat with each other, not speaking, just enjoying the company of the other.

When dawn arrived and the sun rose over the horizon, he looked at me. I knew what he wanted, and I gave the rose to him. I laid it on the grass delicately, and he picked it up with his paws. After touching it with his nose, he laid it back on the ground, gesturing to me to take it. With that, he faded away as the sun’s rays pierced his silhouetted form.

A few days after we last met, I took the white rose from my pouch to look at it. I knew that the rose had been kept alive by him, and my suspicions were confirmed when I saw that the rose had died. I cried myself to sleep that night, knowing that I would never see Ry again.

:C

I really loved everyone's stories but I can't give out any RUs or Credits for a few adopts c:

so,
without further ado,

I believe this Foxifae will be going to...

canary22!


I loved that Ry was covered in beautiful flowers, and he gave her a gorgeous white rose,
but once he died...it died along with him.
It was sweet yet sad. u w u


I also really liked GreenPanthr's story, but I feel like it needed more backstory, and when did they meet this....=.=.?

but other than that I found that very intriguing!

and of course, last but most definitely not least, Crypup's story was interesting as well!


thank you all for your entries and I hope you continue to try out!

[coppercanary]

Thank you so much!
