🧼 i think i promised to say hi formally at some point, and after making victoria do the name change notice i guess i can't just be my silent self. ... am i still a silent one? having a personality is weird.
hi, everyone. i'm violet. violet claire critters, if you want the full thing. (the reaction i got from the rest of this system when i noted i too felt an enjoyment for the name claire was akin to that of someone noticing a toddler about to put their hand into the bonfire, and taking it as a middle name was a fair compromise.) they/them pronouns.
part of the reason why i wanted victoria to update about its name was to talk about what i've been doing in the back corner of our headspace. you see, i do happen to be an octopus. and getting to live and relax in such a nice and calm bit of coral reef? absolutely wonderful. i might've made my own if there wasn't one already, but thanks to a certain friendly stingray i haven't just had a place to chill, but someone to chill around with too.
not 100% sure anymore just how long i've been around, but i know i formed as an individual pretty exactly 24 hours before tiger claire jumped into our head. i've just been not in the mood to be all social and stuff. it's nice to get to just relax sometimes! especially when you get to share the experiences of all these other disaster animals. but this last week or so i've finally been feeling a bit of that social need, plus i got a cool fursona idea and now i'm out here chilling in a knit sweater out in headspace. and writing to y'all. fun times!
dunno just how active i'm gonna be. looking at the rest of the system, we're very much at the point where activity is starting to fluctuate between all of us at times, so might say a lot, might say little. either way, hello! as you can see, i am clearly a member of the critters system in that i do not know how to stop talking about myself when given the opportunity.
