kindly keep in mind that this page is very under construction... thank you
Conspiracies, Information, and Conjectures. If you aren't Rushishi, I command you to eat this notebook immediately without reading any further. Wait, that's a bad idea. I take that back; don't eat it, got it? Just leave it where you found it. I'm never far away from it, anyway. In fact, those footsteps you hear are probably me, so you'd better just drop this notebook and run away before I find you reading something that isn't yours. And if you're reading this far, that must mean that you're me!Welcome back.
So I was reading the Neopian Times again today, like I do every week, looking for clues. I tell you, these people are up to something. I don't know why they would want to hide this from anyone, but they are doing everything they can to cover up the existence of Jelly World, the place of my origin. I don't care what everyone else says. It's real. It's got to be.
But here's the clipping…
Why would Neopets go looking for some place that doesn't exist? It just seems silly. Any Neopet in his or her right mind knows Jelly World is just a myth.
See? Downright depressing and elating all at once. I know for sure it's real. If such a place didn't exist, they wouldn't try so hard to make us believe it didn't, would they? Does that make sense? I don't know. Why am I talking to myself?
I'm not crazy!
I'm not crazy.
I'm not crazy…
Name: RushishiI, unfortunately, have no proof of this besides clues and rumors scattered across the face of Neopia. It is rumored that there is a creature that guards the entrance jealously, but no one has seen it. There is also a rumor that there is an enormous pile of jelly that spontaneously replenishes itself to keep all of Neopia happy and well-fed. The rumors of towns and trees made entirely out of jelly are told in children's stories.
Jelly World… I don't remember ever being there.
But I know I must have been.
I am from Jelly World.
The tales of Jelly World are quite old. First mention, I think, came from a traveler that everyone called insane after he repeatedly insisted that he had found a world made of Jelly. Scattered reports followed, so many and so strange that it's quite impossible to tell the tales of attention-seekers from the facts of real-life adventurers.
That's what I will be one day.
An adventurer.
I will see Jelly World.
That is the reason I started keeping notes in this notebook! I wanted to remember everything that I saw. There are many great and amazing sights across Neopia, too many to keep in one tiny head like mine. So I have this notebook!
I think I said that already.
I am going to travel each of the lands in turn, looking for this fabled place. I know I'll find it! I have to. I feel it calling me… It's hard to explain, how I feel it. A distance call, a longing. A feeling that somewhere not here that I haven't found, that I've never felt… somewhere, there is home.
It is quite a large station, with three decks open to the public and who knows what else besides. I mostly lived in the bottom deck, the cargo and ship area. Plenty of boxes to hide behind and enough room that no one will bother you. It was there I first formulated my theories.
After I departed Virtupets Space Station, I traveled almost everywhere except Jelly World. It is elusive. In any case, to write about each and every land in all fairness would take more paper than my miniature notebook possesses. Despite this, I will say a bit about some of the most interesting places and the things that happened to me there. I suppose that leads me to something else entirely...

If you are interested in the "real" story of how I got Ru, you have come to the right place. I didn't have a lab map at the time, so of course I did not lab him myself. There is a button on his lookup that says "Pound Rescued," which is totally true. I rescued Ru from the pound, but my story with Ru actually begins quite a long time before that...Ru had been listed as Up for Adoption for a long time, and I was looking for some pet to adopt, but anything but a Blumaroo. So don't ask me why when I saw that "Rushishi the Jelly Blumaroo is UFA" did I even give it a second look. Blumaroos were certainly low on my list of favorite species. I looked at his page several times over the next couple of months to see if he had been adopted. No luck for poor Ru.
Then, for some unknown reason, I started to put together an application for him. I never finished it, but doubtless by this time I wanted to adopt no other pet than Ru. I had started calling him by his nickname, thinking up all the ways I could customize him, I even wrote a story for him. I told myself I would apply when I was all done with all of my plans. He had not been adopted yet, it was unlikely he ever would be.
Well, I'm a forgetful person, and I eventually forgot that I was going to apply for Ru, mostly because I went on a year-long hiatus from Neopets. The second thing I did upon coming back, though (after feeding poor McCloud, my Eyrie and first pet ever) was look up Ru.
He was in the pound. I guess his previous owner got tired of trying to adopt him out and needed to make room for a new lab pet. His name was too long, or his color was undesirable. Whatever the reason, Ru stayed in the pound for a while after even I found out. Maybe he was being pound transferred? But, no, the next day he was still crying in the pound.
I adopted him immediately.
Ru now holds a special place in my heart, even for a pixel pet. He inhabits story worlds I have made up, and I try my hand at drawing him quite frequently (though I haven't quite succeeded, yet). I wonder if his old owner has checked up on him. It doesn't really matter. Ru is definately one of my favorite pets (don't tell McCloud!), irreplaceable, even if his name isn't the best or his color isn't the brightest. It just took a while for him to get home.
And that, my good reader, is the story of Ru.
All you have to do is follow these rules...
1. I didn't draw these. These are Neopets' images. But if I edited it, then don't enter it in the BC. You will probably just be laughed at in secret if you do, just because these are tiny and everyone knows it's a Neopet's image.
2. The text I have for you to get has a link back here in it, and that's just so others can request one if they want a custom or a certain color. That is all. You can take the link out if you really want to, I guess. But that would just be mean.
3. That is all. Thanks for reading!
Now, how you use this little box is you copy what is in there, and paste it on whatever petpage you want. Then you replace the word "COLOR" with whatever color you wanted (or, in the case of a custom, the FULL NAME of the pet). It's just that simple! :)
