In Memoriam
Cheesy Flapjack Stack was loved very much and hugged 73 times too many. It is now in several pieces, all of them cherished.
Rest in crumbs, Vanilla Snowcone. MrCuddles shared it with 64 friends, so it was a very sociable goodbye.
Gone but not forgotten: Jelly Slingshot. Shelly_Belly dropped it in a puddle in Glimmer Square. Neither has been the same since.
Ask Stargazer Wren
Wren says the stars answer most questions. This column is for the ones they skipped.
costume_crisis writes: “What should my Glimling dress as this year?”
A comet is easy: one tail, lots of confidence. If it sulks, it can be a very small black hole.
darnling_bestie writes: “My Darnling took every button off my coat. Should I ask for them back?”
Ask nicely, then give it a button of its own. One button. Two, if it sulks.
star_catcher writes: “Where do falling stars land?”
Somewhere in Glimmeria, usually just after someone makes a wish. Keep an eye on the map and a spade handy.
