Ask the Moon: Belated Edition
Written By Valkyrie

The editor is nervous (there's been no word from Moone); she chews her nails a little before giving the order, “Go find her!”


 


So, with your mailbag slung over your shoulder, you brave the Mistmas crowds, asking hassled shopkeepers and harried mothers, “Have you seen the Moone?”


 


As a reward they give you a look that clearly says they fear for your sanity.


 


You find her finally, on a hill overlooking Darkwood Hollow. She ignores you until (feeling a little desperate) you clear your throat loudly.


 


She opens one pale eye, taking in the mailbag and your shuffling feet with a nod. Moone holds out an envelope with a smile then goes back to meditating.

Starshine's Rosaliyah had this question:


Um...hey! Now, you see, I have this really good friend who is in love but he won't confess. Seriously, I'm tired of making him confess and I could really really really use some help.


 


Dear Rosaliyah,


I am enclosing two tickets to the yearly Kelpie bikini fest. If anything will snap him out of this...funk, it will be blue women in skimpy clothes. If that doesn't work: also enclosed is a big stick. A sound thrashing will put the rosey back in his cheeks in a hurry. Swing batter-batter!

Masterpiece and Ponder (a very curious and somewhat snarky Vix) dropped by with this question:


 Um...hello, I suppose. I was wondering if there's any way to get these ridiculous cuffs off my wrists, and this collar off my neck? They're driving me insane, what with their strange markings, and I can't figure out. How. To. Get. Them. Off.


Yeah, she's a bit upset, as you can see. We'd love some advice!


 


Dear Ponder,


One word: poppet -- then 3 more: begging, whining, and threatening. Perhaps getting Masterpiece her own set of cuff and collar under the guise of being twins for a day will help your plight. I personally know from experience that this works (ask Valkyrie sometime about the matching acid green sweaters in her closet). Good luck!

Monsono's pet Dignity presented Moone this question:


I have a bit of a dilemma here...I'm a Lanturn Ahbruis and my head is a pumpkin. No matter what I eat, I always taste pumpkin. Pumpkin. Pumpkin. Pumpkin. It's driving me crazy! Is there anything I can eat or do to put an end to this?


 


Dear Dignity,


Short of decapitation? Maybe not... I understand that Straw the Berry leaves a pretty powerful after taste (if your tastes run to squalling berries) or there is always food from Flaming Treats. The Lava Bites should render you unable to taste anything. I have this on good authority...don't ask....

Skyleigh's Noelle asked:


Um...hi!...but...would you happen to know the best way for me to decorate my friends' house for Mistmas? She wants it to look SUPER awesome, but...I don't know how to make it look very unique! If it helps, she likes fish! *giggles*


 


Dear Noelle,


I am having visions of clam shell garland and dangling Benny plushies from a Mistmas tree. I'm sure Skyleigh wouldn't mind if you invited a troop of Blubbies wearing Mistmas scarves to live in her house for the season. Teach them to croon carols like “Pandoria bless merry Blarneys,” “Crashing through the snow” and my personal favorite, “Tubular Smells.” Of course you would need to flood the house first to make them feel at home; unhappy Blubbies tend to howl a lot and chew the furniture.


Merry Mistmas!

From Dreamcatcher:


Ohh, this looks fun! Although, I'm not sure if any of my pets have questions, they-- oh, what's this? Seems one of my younger fellows wants a go. Alright, here's--hey, no shoving!


Heinous: Ehehehe... so, little Braenon, I have a question for you. I've been getting bored with the current locations of Mistica. After so many lovely, terror-filled visits from myself and the hauntings of Lanturnaucht now passed, I feel as if I'm being overlooked. I don't want to hear “Oh, time for that brainwashed creature to come around; lock your doors.” Ho-hum lines? At my arrival? Oh no. I want to spread my “games” to new areas of Mistica, thrash havoc into the lives of new victims, maybe even find a place to settle in with creatures like myself. When will -- is bonked on the head -- I've been... so rudely alerted, that my question may be asking for spoilers. Balderdash. Fine, then. Might you have any idea what really scares fellow Misticans besides a slaughter-crazed beastie like me? Seems I've gotten rusty.


...Oh dear. So that's what he's been plotting?


 


Dear Heinous,


Hello massive nightmarish – doggish psycho. What scares fellow Misticans? Rollbacks for starters, that's enough to turn even the most stalwart Mistican into a sniveling mess. Even Rougarou turns in a pansy when threatened with an account reset. Glitches will also strike terror into the hearts of the entire community. Canceling Mistmas works too.

From Sidewalk’s pet, Series:


Hi Moone! OMG your cold! need a blanket or hot cocoa?..are you ok now?


..umm what do i look like if i don't have a mask skull in my head..do i look preety?


 


Dear Series,


Other than being a carrion eater you are absolutely lovely in all ways (except your breath).


Moone~


 


From SotoOnde and Cizion:


Hello there, Moone. Don't you ever get cold, always being a frost pet? What, no, that's not my question, honestly, woman! It's not often I get to talk for myself so just hold your horses. Anyway! As much as I dislike being cold, I'm not sure I like what my owner has planned for me anymore. She plans to box me Inferno! She wants to set me on fire! Can you believe that? When I think about it, though, I've seen lots of Inferno pets around and they don't seem to be fried to a crisp by their fires. So my question is this: How do Inferno pets keep from being burned by the fires that are constantly alight on their body? I'd feel better about being boxed if I knew I wouldn't be burned to cinders, ya know?


 


Dear Cizion,


Run! That is all.


Moone~


 


 


Odin's 13th had this question:


As much as I love being a Lanturn Jinx, I do have to ask: Why are Jinx the only pet that does not have a punkin head?


 


Dear 13th,


I have it from a good source that the Jinx threatened to curse Lanturnatch if forced to wear a pommekin on their heads! So Jasper in turn threatened to close his rewards shop forever and release his critters from the sideshow, which of course would have resulted in a Mistica wide zombie apocalypse. Under this threat Albrecht said he would trap people in his maze making them his slaves unless they agreed to give him 75% of their earnings. Makoto upon hearing about the threat to his profits this promptly shed his entire coat making him naked, traumatizing a group of DayDream Sprites on a field trip to the Light House Cove, who ran into Darkwood Hollow, never to be seen again (which sparked an off season Imp/Sprite war).... So, you see, that's why the Jinx remains lounging on top of the pommekin.

A message from Blue:


Moone. I really like this... other baby pet, but she isn't owned by my mommie. What should I do to get her to notice me?


 


Dear Blue,


Climb the tree outside her room and gaze longingly at her through a pair of binoculars. That should do the trick.


Moone~


 


Kage:


Why is Valkyrie so evil with anagrams?


 


Dear Kage,


I did indeed present Kyrie with your question, but it may have been too soon after my CS event when I broke into her Safebox. I am typing with the worst set of dish-pan hands imaginable and have been “volunteered” to do community service at the pound (for serious, what are they feeding them?!?). Thank you for your interest though.


Moone~
