In Memoriam
In loving memory of Captain Crumbeard Stamp, lent out by Livejournal_Lil and never returned. It lives on in someone else's drawer.
Lucky Dip Pudding was left out in the snow and is now a very small iceberg. Visitors welcome.
Puka Shell Necklace passed on quietly in Player_Two's backpack after being sat on. It was flat, but at peace.
Ask Stargazer Wren
Wren answers letters between star counts. "I have lost my place twice tonight," he writes. "Three times."
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.
gloomy_gal_99 writes: “Why is Gloomhollow always dark?”
The sun sets there first. That is why every lamp in Glimmeria is lit there, and carried out along the roads each dusk.
worried_mewbloom writes: “My Mewbloom's tail flower has closed up. Is she sick?”
She is probably asleep. Flowers close at night, same as the Observatory shutters. Check after breakfast.
