I would like to adopt! (A beautiful little charrie)

Number: #9

Picture:

Name: Elle (I adore her name!)

Species: Fox

Personality:
SHY:Elle is quite shy and silent, her cheeks going rosey when she receives a compliemt, and expecially red if she does something wrong. She is usual quite, but is a lot more outgoing when she is around her friends.
Kind:Elle is a very, very friendly girl. She is always looking to help others, maybe try to sit with somebody who looks as if they are lonley (if she can get past her shyness), and she always tries to be respectful and considerate of others.
Outgoing:When Elle is around her friends, she opens up more, talking and attempts to make them laugh. They often try to get her to try new things, which makes her a little nervaus, but she usual ends up loving what they made her try.
Creative:Elle is the most creative girl her friends and family know. She can always be seen writing songs, sketching pictures, creating accsessories, building little bird houses out of sticks, and painting. But her favorite activity is writing stories, and she writes almost every day. One of her dreams is being able to publish one of her own stories for all to read.
Organized:Elle is very organized. Disorganization makes her a little bit nervaus, because she might lose something important. What if she loses her stories? or one of her papers gets ripped? That is very unlikley to happen, considering Elle keeps all her important papers, poems, drawings and stories in neat little folders to make sure they stay all together.
Worrysom:Elle has always been a little bit of an over worrier, which is one of the reasons she is so organized. Public speaking makes her nervaus because she worries she might mess up her lines, or misplace of her neatly organized index cards. Her friends try to tell her to let lose and not worry about the little things to much
Fun/daring:This is a side of Elle people rarley see. This side of her personality is the one that loves to go to parties, socialize with others, try to things voulentarily, and explore the cities. Elle usually reserves this side of her for when she is with her friends and family.



Likes: Reading, poetry, forests, nature, exploring, being with her friends and family, smiling, writing, a nice, cool day, taking little swims.

Dislikes: Mean people, arguing, being trapped inside, public speaking, doing things wrong, being embarresed, hot weather,


Background (Optional, but it gives you a better shot. 2500 words maximum, 100 words minimum. We value quality over quantity, you can have five pages and still say absolutely nothing.)


September 4th, First day of school.
I woke up and looked around tiredly, the sun shining through the tree leaves. Suddenly I remembered. IT'S THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL. My heart started beating faster, my worrying habit taking over. "What if nobody likes me? what if i make a fool of myself? what if the teachers dont like me?" I took a deep breath. "Stop it" I thought to myself, "Everything is going to be okay" I looked over to see my mother and father still fast asleep. I stretched out my back and got to my feet, still having that little worried feeling inside of me. After brushing out my hair and getting my little folder of poems, books, pencils and paper, I headed to the place that my school form said we would be meeting. Walking through the forest calmed me down a little. "What is their to worry about?" I said to myself. "I am smart and respectful, so the teachers should like me. I am friendly..I think, so I might possibly make new friends.." I finally got to a little clearing in the forest were other animals were sitting. A adult wolf was sitting behind a fallen tree, writing some things down on paper. I saw some birds flying in the air playing tag, some boy foxes chasing each other around the tree's, and a group of really pretty foxes sitting together giggling. "Here goes nothing!" I said silently. I took a seat next to two squirrles who were talking about what they did over the summer, and how much fun they had. I took out my notebook and began to write a little poem.

I sit here silently,
watching the others run and play
and while I sit here I wonder, "will I have a good day?"

"Class! Please take your seats" I heard the adult wolf say. I shut my notebook and put it back into my folder as the other animals took their seats around me. "Hello, everybody. My name is Mrs.marriweather, and I'm going to be your teacher for the year!" The others groaned at the thought of the whole entire school year ahead. "To begin" Mrs.Marriweather said, "We are going to go around the circle saying our names and a little about us" Gulp! I have to speak in front of the class? I sat nervously as I listented to a fox named kelly tell us she likes to swim, a bird named baily tell us he likes to eat nuts, and one of the pretty foxes I saw giggling say her name was Seline and she enjoys gymnastics. "Very nice, Seline. Next" Uh oh! That's me! SAY SOMETHING! "Umm..Hello, everyone. My name is..uh....um...Elle and I enjoy reading and porty. I mean poetry.. and, Uhh... learning" I said silently. The pretty girl foxes laughed at me and I heard one say "dork". This is not starting off well!
"Very nice, Elle" I gave her a small, shy smile. After we went around the little circle, Mrs.Marriweather stood back up. "Nice to meet you, all! Now we are going to do a little mathmatics" Again, everybody groaned. Except for me, I could handle math. It's not that I liked math, it was just easy for me. After finishing math, doing a little reading, and reciting some lines Mrs.Marriweather held up, it was time for break. I walked off with my sketchbook and sat under one of the trees, away from the others. I was to shy to talk to anybody. I looked straight ahead to see a beautiful pink flower growing next to a tree. It's pettles were soft and pink, a little white sewn into it. It had big, full green leaves sprouting from each side, and a mix of different greens going down it's stem. "ooh! that is so beautiful" I thought to myself, beginning to sketch it on one of the pages. Suddenly, I heared somebody walking behind me. "Hello" a soft voice said. I turned around to see a pretty girl wolf coming towerds me. "Um. Hi" I replied. "My name is Kim. What's yours?" "....Elle" She looked at me and smiled brightly. "Elle? That is a very pretty name! So, what are you doing way over here by yourself?" Kim said, sitting next to me. My cheeks went rosey pink. "Oh..I..I..I just wanted to draw for a little bit" Kim looked down at my drawing. "Oh! That's amazing! You are such a skilled artist!" She exclaimed. Once again, My cheeks went red. "Oh! Thank you..Are you into drawing, too?" I asked her. "Yeah, I like to draw. I love singing, though. I would LOVE to become a singer one day!" Hmm, singing. Interesting. "Oh, Uh..that's cool!" I cant belive I'm not being as shy as I usually would! I think I just got a new friend! "Thank you! Hey, would you like to meet some of my other friends?" "Sure" I said quitly, putting my sketchbook back into my folder.
We walked for a little while until we got to a little group of two wolves, one fox, and a squirrle sitting together. "Hey guys!" Kim said cheerfully, "This is Elle. I saw her sitting by herself, so I thought she could use some new friends" "Hi, Elle. I'm kayla" a white wolf said. "I'm sasha! Hi!!!!" "sasha is a little overly hyper," Kim whispered to me.
Ah" I replied. "Hey, I'm jay" The fox said. "Oh...He's a boy.." I thought to myself. That just made me more shy! "Hi! I'm Muffin!" The little squirrle said. "Hello Kayla, Sasha......Jay.......And Muffin" I said to them all. "Kayla loves to read, Sasha loves making desserts and things, which probably describes why she is so hyper...Jay Likes to draw and write, Hey! Just like you, and Muffin loves to run. She's like the fastest in our class!" "Ah, cool!" I said. "I think this is the start of a good friendship!!!" Sasha exclaimed. And that it was! Every day for weeks I would hang out with Kayla, sasha,......Jay, Muffin and Kim, which made me very, very happy. I finally had some great friends! About for weeks into school, We all started to see little posters hung up on the tree's for a dance. "Oh! A dance! Wouldn't it be SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO cool if jarred asked me???!!!" Sasha yelled in her usual hyper mood. "Yeah, that would be cute. The dance is tommarow!" Kim said, reading off one of the little posters. I knew I wasn't going to get asked, but I could still enjoy the dance, right? "Let's all go hang out at my place" Muffin said, heading into the forest. "Ok!" all the girls chipped in. As I was starting to follow, I heard jay's voice behind me.
"Um.....Elle?" I turned around to see him standing their, looking very shy. "I..I..I was wondering If maybe, I mean you dont have to, but IF you wanted to, Possibly hang out with me at the dance?......Maybe?" My heart started beating faster. "He is cute...And he's nice, too! He is into writing and drawing, and someone is acctually asking me...SAY YES!"
I thought to myself. "Umm...Sure!" "Oh! That's great!! Uh..I mean, cool. See you there...I have to go" Jay said quickly, walk-running back into the forest. "Hey! Elle, you comin'?" I heard Kayla ask. "Yeah...I'm coming" As I started to walk in their direction, I thought to myself, "Great friends? A.....'date' to the dance? Maybe school isn't going to be that bad after all!"

Any extra conditions?:
Keep the species
Keep the Markings

[[Would it be alright if I just made a whole bunch of designs and donated them? Just to help this place get back on it's feet again.]]

[Atwood]

Actually, Wendigo and I are in the middle of renovating TaN, so things might be a bit chaotic around here as we figure out how things are going to be. ;3 Once we've got it set up again, we'd certainly welcome some new designs though. ^^

[Micki.]

[[Aha! I knew there was a reason this thread wasn't very active. Alright, I'll wait until TaN is renovated. I can't wait. :D]]

Just curious, but will you guys be making a new thread? This one's gotten pretty long. xD

I think I might make some new designs too, though maybe no more sable antelopes... No one seems to be interested in the one I made. :3

[Atwood]

As far as I know, we're planning to keep the same thread, but we'll see how it goes. :3 Most of the changes will be along the lines of organizational changes, guideline additions, rule clarification/updates and so on, all of which can be done while keeping the original thread.
