Image; ; my username at this moment is camelopadalis. This is because I really love all animals, but my favorite is the giraffe. The scientific name for the giraffe if I remember correctly is Giraffa camelopardalis, and so from that came camelopardalis.

Image; ; his name would be Ferdinand. At first, this might seem strange or surprising. However, the name Ferdinand seems to fit this boy. In German, it means daring and adventurous. It's a popular Chilean name, and when I see this boy I think of bright colors, which somehow leads me to think that he seems like he would be from Spain. The daring and adventurous seems to fit him also- this is how I imagined he would be like. Ferdinand doesn't like his name being shortened, so it's just Ferdinand.

Image; ; the small JBD laughed as his cat ran towards him. He was snorting and puffing, just like a bull! With his long, red cape, Ferdinand fit the part of the bullfighter. He spun in a circle, laughing. He wanted to have all the fun he could with this cat. "Ole! Ole!" The small JBD cried, lifting up the cape at the last moment, just so that his cat could bend under it. He laughed and bent down, rubbing that cat's back, who purred and arched his spine under Ferdinand's warm touch. It was the second cat that Ferdinand had found that week and he liked it the best so far. Sadly all the animals that came to see him always left no matter how hard he tried to make them stay. Even though he gave them all they needed, most of the pets that came to his house left soon. Ferdinand wanted a real pet, one that he could keep company with and do things with and love, and be sure that it would never leave. His favorite animals that came to stay were cats, but there had been a few dogs and once even a ferret. He wasn't exactly sure how he had gotten in, and one morning the ferret was just gone. With all these cats around, Ferdinand was hoping it hadn't gotten out the way he was thinking it did.
The sun was setting, and it was late, so Ferdinand decided to go to sleep. He took off his cape and his golden bracelet and grabbed his stuffed cat, who he named Tinea. It was the only animal that he owned that had never run away from him. Before retiring for the night, however, he set out a plate of milk for the cats and a bowl of some dog food he had bought at the market for all the hounds. There were only two, frequent visitors. The cats gathered around him as he set the plate down and they purred, licking the milk tray- and some him -and raising their tails in a sign of appreciation. He smiled at their happiness and padded back towards his bed, pulling the blanket up so he was warm.
The next morning he woke up to a very strange sight. The three cats were all crowded around one spot in the room. They were in the 'play' position, except they weren't playing. Their tails twitched and they seemed to be staring intently at something. But what? Ferdinand hopped out of bed and went to the spot they were crowded around. It was a table, except it was just too low to the ground for them to go under. The cats -even the ginger one he had been playing with the last night- were swiping their paws underneath. When they saw him, the cats all let out small meows. He swatted them away, not too hard, and then peeked under the table after them. He couldn't see anything at first, but then he noticed something in the corner- a small, wet ball of grey. It was shivering violently. Obviously it was some sort of animal in trouble. Ferdinand shook his head and swatted the cats, a little harder, out of the room. He moved the table- careful not to harm the small creature- and picked it up. He could feel its small heartbeat in his palm and somehow he knew that this was the companion he had been looking for.
The creature didn't seem to know it was being held until Ferdinand gently splashed some warm water on it. Shivering a little bit less violently, it unrolled itself from the ball it had been in to reveal a small grey mouse. Ferdinand gasped. The mouse was perfect! It has a long tail almost it's body length and four small pink paws. They were warm to the touch and seemed perfectly formed. His ears were the same, so thin Ferdinand could almost see through them. A small little muzzle was peeking upwards, and Ferdinand found himself staring into small, shiny black eyes. The mouse snuffled a bit on his hand, and then sucked on one paw, falling to sleep.
Ferdinand found himself captivated by the small creature. That night, after all the rest of his street was quiet, he lay in his bed, cuddling with the small, soft creature. It had taken well to him too, and it sucked on his hand. "You need a name now, don't you?" Asked Ferdinand, his voice a whisper. He wasn't expecting the mouse to reply, so he continued, "What sort of names do you like? It neds to be something small, and warm. Something that described you." He lay in bed feeling the warmth emenating from the small creature. "How about Mist?" The little animal turned in his hand and sighed, falling to sleep. "Yes, it is Mist. Goodnight, my Mist."
"My friend."

Image; ; if I had to pick five word to secribe Ferdinand, the first would be curious. He's always sticking his nose into things. Another would be daring. He always has to do what the most unsafe thing is. Another is animal-lover. He loves all animals of any kind and can't resist hellping them, which leads us to our next word. Helpful. He's always wiling to lend a hand. The last would be small. He's always shy and talks quietly.

ImageI would love to see time-period themed JBDs, like from the 1800s. I'd also love to see country themed JBDs, like from Africa or something like that. A magician themed JBD would always be wecomed by me also!

Username;

immask1

Name;

Nate

Short story under 800 words;

It was an extremely beautiful day outside, the birds were whistling a tune that was catchy, every plant was flourishing, and Nate was inside. He was quickly pressing the A button on his Nintendo DS, and was saying to himself, "Bite! Bite! Crunch! Tackle! Stoutland, you piece of poop. Move faster, faaaaster, and yes! I won, again. Ahhahaha, I'm so great, that I won't ever go outside, and I'll play this through the night!" He glanced at the top screen fastly, watching to see how much EXP his Stoutland had gained. He was playing Pokemon White 2, and was proud to say that he was addicted to it.
"Naaaaate," he heard a voice, booming from above him, "When I count to ten, you will have that game being saved. One, twoooo, threeeee, fouuuuur, fiiii-" Nate just ignored the teenager, still letting the music, Driftveil City's, to be exact, boom out of his Nintendo DS. "Ten. Alright, that's it. You, Nate, are going outside! Have fun!" The girl grabbed his game, and pushed him out the door.
-----
"Well, this stinks," Nate said to himself. "I wish I had someone or something to play with." He sighed, glancing up at a bird in a tree. "Welp, it's just you, and me, buddy." The bird twittered, and flew away to a different tree, leaving Nate to himself. Being an indoor kid, he hated anything that had to do wit the outdoors. He was pretty fast, but he just didn't enjoy running around. I wanna go inside! C'mon, pleeeeease? Let me in!" He went up to the front door and started pounding on it, causing every nearby wildlife to flee. "I swear I won't play any video games today! Can I please go in?" Nobody replied, causing him to go back into the backyard. Then he grabbed a baseball bat, and a football. "I know! I'll play faceball, or whatever it's called." He threw the ball way up into the air, and then swung at it, but it landed on his head. "Owww..... I guess I'll just sit around and do nothing." Nate sighed, then flopped down onto his back. "Heh heh, that one looks a rabbit holding a whip.... And that one looks looks like a Stoutland, my Stoutland... Jaaames...." Nate got a mental image of his Nintendo in his brain. He shook around like a wet dog, trying to get the thoughts of Pokemon out of his brain. "No! I, Nate, must stop this foolishness right now. I can't think about it. It is killing my brain, but I just really, truly, sincerely love it." Then, he ran up to the window, and tried to break it open, slamming himself into it, flinging himself at it, and throwing branches at it. "I need to come in! Let me in! Let me in! I wanna go insiiiiide!" He whined. Finally, his friend, the one that threw him out, plodded outside.
"Fine, Nate, I give up. Come on in. But no video games. Get it, got it, good." Nate squealed in delight, and scrambled inside. Then he jumped up on the sofa, and then just started to run around the entire house like the wolrd was ending tomorrow.
"I'm just happy to be inside," Nate said, "I'm never going out there again!" He smiled. The indoors was much, much better, at least for him.

Five words to describe him;

Outgoing, curious, reliable, imaginative, and nimble.

Hmmmm..... I'd personally love to see some more pink, purple, or yellow beans. Or maybe some pastry/desert/junk food themed beans c: I just don't really like too many animal themed ones, but ones like this are nice. Oh, and simple designs also catch my eye, but I'm probably suggesting too much.

name:
his name would be Fennel. His story and name took awhile to develop. At first, I thought he should be in a jungle. The jungle made me think of humid air, which made me think of spices. Fennel is a spice used in many Indian foods, but this one mostly stood out to me because I have tasted chocolate with fennel in it. (No, the spice in the chocolate in the story is not fennel. Spoiler alert cx)
short story under 800 words:

The hot, spicy air greets me. I inhale the scent and humidity. I grin. As my eyes flutter open, I perceive a palace in the distance. Now this, I have to see.

The jungle is warm. The leaves do not flap against my face, but caress it gently. The bees do not swarm angrily, but they hover calmly around me. The air smells of spices, and honey, and hot. The ever-approaching castle gleams in its majesty.

A stumble here, a trip there. I smile to myself. Despite my composed manner, I'm still my clumsy self. A glance at the castle. It ever approaches, gleaming white and polished marble, shimmering gold and polished silver. It is bright red rubies, and midnight-blue sapphires, truly fit for a king. And who better to rule, than king of the jungle himself?

Finally, I am at the gleaming doors to the palace. Taj-Mahal-inspired, it seems to radiate a light of its own. A gentle push with my paw, and it swings open.

I expected to be greeted by warmth, by a feast, by hundreds of dancing colors and scents. Instead, I gently set my pad on the tile. It is not cold, but cool. The inside of the palace is pure white marble, and empty. There is a set of spiraling stairs to my right. I begin to climb.

At the top, a single, circular room. Contrary to the simple, white entrance of the palace, it is full of silky sheets, gold coins, pots of spices. There is a balcony. I look down onto the jungle and laugh. What a wonderful palace, a beautiful palace. In the middle of the jungle, where I may rule in peace.

I don't know when I had decided I ruled the jungle. In the days when I was a simple baby bean, I suppose. I would leap from treetop to treetop, swing from vine to vine. Yes, the jungle was mine. I could eat what I pleased, sleep where I wanted. The world was my playground. And so, I had assumed, I must be king. Who else would have an entire world to themselves?

I wrap myself in a silky fabric. It hugs and caresses my body. It is so soft, and so warm, yet cool at the same time. I gravitate towards the pots of spices, and smell. Fennel, cardamom, anise, cinnamon, coriander. I especially like the smell of the fennel. It is, after all, my namesake.

There is something in another pot. A chocolate. I break off a piece, and place it delicately in my mouth. It is spicy, yet sweet. It tickles at the back of my throat. It is delicious.

The sweet smell of milk and honey envelops the room. It makes me drowsy. I almost fall asleep. Unless, perhaps, this is a dream?

It feels like a dream, as I look over the balcony and fully appreciate the view, spices enveloping me like the silk on my fur. I am king, and this palace is fit for me! I roar this to the bees, to the treetops, to everything that will listen.

I close my eyes, basking in my glory, and open them only to reveal that I am standing on a branch. The palace has melted away, into this jungle. I smile. As well as ruling the jungle, I have a majestic sense of imagination. I may not have a palace, may not have a kingdom-

But this was my home. I had the jungle all to myself. I was king of the world, standing on that branch. King Fennel-it has a nice ring to it, don't you think?

Serene, majestic, calm, collected and imaginative.

Blueberry (He loves baking)
short story under 800 words:
It was a warm sunny day, with a beautiful blue sky, inside a small cozy house lived Blueberry, the Jelly Bean Dragon that loved to bake. Today, was Saturday, which meant apple sauce day. If you were somewhere near this house, you could hear the sounds of a fresh apple being bit. This, of course, was Blueberry, cutting apples.
*Sliste!* Came a sound when Blueberry was sliceing 4 apples to prepare for apple sauce. At the same time, 2 apples rolled off the counter and 2 more just sat next to the bowl with apple slices in it. It was one of the things that Blueberry loved the most. To make apple sauce. Earlier today, Blueberry went to the super market to buy some and found that the apples were on sale, so instead of buying the normal, 4 apples, he bought 8 apples, which were very hard to "take care" of. While Blueberry was cutting the 1 apple infront of him, it seemed to be like the other 6 apples were yelling at him, not including the one that was already cut.
"Oh, it's alright!" Blueberry said gleefully. "I'm not going to waste you all!" motioning a paw to the fridge. He set the little blade down and picked up 4 apples and walked over to the fridge. "See? Nice and cold so you won't rot." Blueberry carefully set them down one by one.
"Blueberry!" A voice from outside his house yelled. "Come and play with us! Finish you apple sauce later!"
As usual, it was his friend, Lemondrop, asking to play again. Blueberry cares about his apple sauce, but his friends better, so he carefully put the knife in the sink, wrapped the apple slices in tin foil and stuffed it in the fridge. Soon after, he combed his fur a little and walked outside to meet Lemondrop.
five words to describe him:
Magnificent, Unique, Unbarable, Sweet and Beautiful
Any suggestions for new JBD designs?
You can maybe make some zodic designs, or base some JBDs off of times of the day, like sunset or something. Also, food designs! Like pie or cake.

Name:
Azure Sights ( Azzie ((Aussie)) for short.)
Short story under 800 words:
The butterfly flitted from one flower to the next, twirling and swirling around each one, but never landing. Soft periwinkle eyes followed every movement quietly, their owner lying perfectly still. The butterfly began to make its way towards the blue eyes, and then, light as a soft summer kiss, it landed on a nose of cerulean, and the butterfly stayed.
It watched the world with its many eyes, its bright orange wings moving gently as it explored its perch. Then, without any warning, the little creature leapt back into the sky, and fluttered away from the breathless JBD whom it had graced with its touch. The little boy, so brightly colored he was reminiscent of a flower, stared in awe at the piece of art that had touched him, and smiled.
Once the little butterfly was gone from sight, having soared away on the warm summer air, the little JBD looked down at his sketchbook and began to draw.
Minutes passed, time blurring and just as beautiful a butterfly emerged on paper that had just graced the winds. As he smiled down at the picture, he saw in his mind’s eye, the little butterfly he’d drawn taking flight, flittering off to join its colored counterpart and together the two butterflies would dance and dive, creating more magic.
Then, the wind stirred the pages of his sketchbook, flipping open to a blank page, and he looked up. It was time for another drawing, another piece of magic.
