╔═══════════════════════╗

A poppy-red, faintly disheveled one,
and one, compact, all indigo in faint green water.
They wear comical whiskers and gather beneath us
as we lean on the cement railing

Achromatic. With the period. But you can call me Cat or A.C. if you want.

A pretty girl needs a pretty name. That's right, it's a girl, and I'm naming her chrysanthemum night.

Image
This little mutato caught my eye the moment I set eyes on it. It's just so delicate. The autumn-like forest pattern on its body immediately reminded my of a sentence in a poem, "And in the garden, the chrysanthemums bloom." Chrysanthemums are delicate too, often blooming in autumn, flourishing the season with their vibrant hues. However, what was truly impressive about this design is the night sky tail that trails behind the autumn. That's why I'm naming her chrysanthemum night. A bit long, but poetic.

the form for this beautiful mutato. good luck to everyone! :)

+Your Username - Kaitlynizer

+Name of the Mutato - Ai Bao

++Reason for choosing the name - I chose this name because "ai" means love, and "bao" means jewel in chinese, and this mutato reminds me of a gorgeous golden jewel and koi fish. It just seemed to fit.

+Answer (and explain) this riddle (I made it up, there are no right answers): What is as free as the wind, yet as caged as a bird? - Wild fish in a pond, because they are free, but they are trapped in an area of water and cannot escape without help.

.Thirst. is what I go by :3
;;Name of Mutato;;
This Mutato's name would be Ike. Just Ike. Nothing else.
;;Reason for Choosing it;;
Ike means 'pond' in Japanese, and that was the first thing I thought of when I saw his design. Ike is also a nice name for a boy, and it sounds fluent on this boy.
;;Answer;;
What is as free as the wind, yet as caged as a bird?
I dunno, what is it? I'm going to have to say life. With life, you're free to go anywhere, see anything, do anything you want to, but then you only have a specific period, kinda like you're trapped between the time you were born and the time you will die. Like a bird trapped in a cage, you're trapped with the burden of death. But live it while it lasts, because you are free in the time you're alive.

Who am I?
Hello! My username is JayzPF :3
What would you call it?
If I won it, I would
name this gorgeous
Mutato Balio.

Your Reasoning?
Balio means "Valuable" in the beautiful language of Basque. The shiny golden scales convinced me of that. Also, koi fish in Japan are very valuable and good ones are expensive. Balio just seemed to jump at me.
Theme Song Extra:

Friend or Foe - TATU

I picked this song because I think it suits the Mutato and my response. Imagination is a good thing, but it can also distract you from important things. Is it good or bad? Friend or foe? The koi fish in the body remind me of fighters circling each other, but also of friends playing a game of tag. Opposites, per se.


What is as free as the wind, yet as caged as a bird?
I thought about this question, and I think Imagination is a suitable answer. It probably isn't as good as the other ones but it makes sense to me. Imagination is unlimited and free, like the wind. You can imagine anything you want. However, as wonderful as this might be, the things that imagination can do are very limited. Stuff doesn't happen just because you thought it up. You have to actually work for it. Also, your imagination takes place in your brain, which is trapped in your skull. But I think that would be considered a bad answer so disregard that.

+Your Username
Ashihak

+Name of the Mutato
Sakuratsu (Sah-coo-rah-sue)

++Reason for choosing the name
Sakura bō~tsu
cherry blossom daze


Whenever I see the iconic koi fish, I always think of cherry blossom petals floating from their tree and landing gracefully onto the water and then a large koi swimming beneath it. So, what was better than to not incorporate the cherry blossom tree? Sakura is a word that is pretty common for people who are new to the japanese language, so I decided to make it different by adding 'daze', since the pretty pink petals against the clear water and the bright koi could put me in a daze for days. I removed the bo to shorten it to just Sakuratsu, since I found Sakurabotsu was just to long and confusing. I wanted a graceful name, a short and interesting name, a sort of earthly word that calmed you as much as meditation.

+Answer (and explain) this riddle: What is as free as the wind, yet as caged as a bird?
Our true selves. We're probably the most free-minded animals on planet earth, we have so much to offer, but instead we cage our amazing thoughts, our true unique personality within us to stand with a crowd instead of apart. We crave the acceptance of many people, and we fear that we can't get this attention and acceptance that friends offer with our own personalities, which is truly sad. Think if everyone was themselves. This planet would be amazing. More ideas would be spoken, everyone would feel happy about themselves, but instead we lie, we pretend to be someone we don't, and when you drown yourself you drown your thoughts and ideas, so no one looks at you funny when you have an idea you think is truly brilliant, but sounds foolish to others.

The master of this is... falling feather ;

Everyone calls me... ゴールデン恋
My full name is Gōruden Koi, a simple yet meaningful Japanese name. Everyone just calls her Koi, Fishy, or Rue.


My name was chosen because... wordswordswords

Something as free as the wind, but as caged as a bird... Faith, wip.

Extra... My extra is a piece of art, which is viewed at the top. Not much, but, you know. c:

Hey ya'll, I'm ScarxofxMine.
+Name of the Mutato
Hamato
++Reason for choosing the name
Seeing the koi made me think of Japan, and Japan made me think of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Hamato is their last name, and I think it fits.
+Answer (and explain) this riddle (I made it up, there are no right answers): What is as free as the wind, yet as caged as a bird? I would have to say the will of man. We can do anything we wish yet we so constantly get in our own way, caging ourselves if you will.
+Extra... How about a picture of Hamato Yoshi and Hamato Splinter from the original comics? Image
they/them
