Quote of the Week


We often put pets that are plain with good names in the pound so we can get pets with horrible names. Why not just save your neopoints?


Hurray For Grey Day.



Whatever. Not that you care. I know I don't. Anyways, I'm a grey girl Kougra. I'm not really sure what we're learning here, honestly. Every day, even Grey Day, is boring and drab for me. But nobody gives a rat's hat, so it doesn't matter. Anyways, let's just get this over with. Alright, now I'm going to teach you—wait—how to have f-fff-uunnn -shiver- on Grey Day? -Mumbles- I don't see how that's possible, but I'll give it a shot. Now here are eight not-so-great things to do on Grey Day...

A Happy Neobuddy



Now I look back and ask myself, how many times have I, selfishly, asked for McGee's help? And how many times was he not there when I needed him? The answer to the first question is "many," and to the second is "none." I feel ashamed of exploiting my poor red eyed friend; how cruel I am.

One or two of them noticed him, their sharp young eyes spotting him through the foliage he stood behind, but they exhibited no fear or suspicion at all. This was still an innocent world, then...

"Twilight: A Faerie's Fall" by rainbow_daydreamer
Though she was only a few weeks old, Lumina loved to watch the stars at twilight. Like most of her kind, the little Faerie had come into being at the centre of Faerieland, on a beautiful summer's night. And like her playmates, she was, of course, without an element, and without any magic to command. That was why, in the gentle warmth of the late...
