One cool thing about getting old? Some of your friends will just start to look like this. Maybe you will. And you won't have that crack, that hole, not physically anyway. But it will still be there.

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

This is the aspirational message I needed this morning. I'm not quite there yet, but I'm at a point where I have friends who are.

Come what may, I will be that friend.

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

I should...pick some appropriate tags for Marionette posting. It's kind of #SizeSky, being doll sized. But without anyone else for scale, well...

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Maybe there will be another fun new chance to tag it tomorrow...

Who can say...?

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh my god, the crop. I promise they're different pictures.

tfwnogiantgf.bsky.social•2 days ago

the crop actually made the "scare" more effective for me, personally!

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

I keep hearing this! I'm so glad!

laceyfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh goodness.... it's beautiful...

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

It really is. I keep looking at it and just smiling.

laceyfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

I keep looking at it and thinking... wow.... I should... like... go talk to it.... get in close...

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

So strange, it doesn't seem to be moving, but the closer you get, the further it seems to be. And when did it get so dark...?

laceyfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

How odd.... I've got my wings all lit up too, and it doesn't seem to be helping... maybe if I walk a little faster? Surely that wouldn't provoke it, right?

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Provoke? Nooooo, never. Faster though, that's perfect. More of that. Just focus on the pretty doll, don't pay any mind to what's happening around you...

tinyscribej.bsky.social•2 days ago

The crop kinda adds to it, cause when you click one, then tab to the other, you get the terrifying head snap.😬 Quite frightening, yet also attractive.

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

It is kind of perfect, honestly, isn't it?

tinyscribej.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yeah, Eldritch really nailed it.😍😱

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Always does!

I love it's long lacy gloves!! :3

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Right? Gosh, so stylish. Makes a gal want to just get tangled up in them...

hazelthefae.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh goshh tangled up in them.... you'd have to be pretty small for that....

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Okay. Okay I said Marionette was leas sizey, but if catches wind of this, it will absolutely drop whatever it has planned to try to make it happen.

How could a doll not help another, suddenly much smaller, doll enjoy the ecstasy of entanglement?

hazelthefae.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh goshh caught like a fly in a spiders web.... @_@

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Mm. You know, speaking of catching bugs, I'm sure it knows some knots that would fit perfectly around pretty fairy wings...

laceyfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's wearing me as gloves!?

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Surprise!

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

This is what happens when you chase dolls into nondescript dark voids.

laceyfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

... but.... I think I'm okay with this...

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Good, good.

Isn't it nice to be a pretty thing adoring another pretty thing?

Something in constant contact, stretching and straining with its every little movement. Pinched and pulled thoughtlessly in quiet moments...

laceyfairy.bsky.social•2 days ago

If I can enhance it's beauty by being a cute little accessory... then gosh... does it get any better than this?

thehaarpist.bsky.social•2 days ago

Beautiful

rmjwmmd.bsky.social•2 days ago

SO COOL! I love that dress on it, so perfect for the vibe ❤️❤️❤️

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

RIGHT OH MY GOSH

Eld is a wizard at this.

rmjwmmd.bsky.social•2 days ago

They make characters look so damn good.

I’d let Marionette haunt my house, total cutie

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Careful where you say that, you never know what's listening~

Although, it's...probably less of an immediate threat at your size.

rmjwmmd.bsky.social•2 days ago

It can still scare the bejeezus out if me at 3 am, but it could also join the plushie collection if it wanted to

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Late at night when no one is watching, nestling in the impossibly soft pile. Just for a little while...

chuckdraug.bsky.social•2 days ago

She looks amazing, loving that dress. And look at that attitude too.

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

Right? Rocking the look and it knows it

chuckdraug.bsky.social•2 days ago

True, it, sorry about that. Looks gorgeous and can't wait to see where this goes next.

bonesrambles.bsky.social•2 days ago

It's okay! New character. I almost slip and say she sometimes too, no harm done.

Thank you! I'm excited to do more.

chuckdraug.bsky.social•2 days ago

Can tell how excited you are, there are characters which are a hit the very first time you see them.
