josh or i really need to talk to someone about ghosts of christmas always
i went to dinner with my parents and a couple of their friends. it was the first time that has happened in my entire adult life. i think i was a good dinner companion. i yes-and-tell-me-mored their stories and laughed at the points where tone, demeanor, and traditional narrative structures indicated i should. when it was my turn, i told the most normal anecdote about my recent life that i could, and i pretended that i thought it was a compliment when they said, that is so interesting. i ate crawfish étouffée
i think of the hallmark christmas movies as episodes in a twilight zone type anthology series. sometimes the moment of departure from our shared reality is explicitly depicted. sometimes we start already immersed in an altered reality. ghosts of christmas always handles this transition in an interesting way. it also does some world building that feels like a foundation for future episodes, but that isn't the way this show usually works

If your name for them is an obvious derivation of one of the above, please choose that and clarify spelling/spacing/adjectives in the notes. Save "other" for complete departures, pls.
I thought about using the 10th option for "Lunch!" but didn't want to throw off the numbers.

24 - Shallow
Katchi marveled at how clear the water was, must be from seeping out the rock face. She knew this was the preferred breeding ground of the mudbugs and with this clarity, hunting would be easy.

God I would fucking love to share my Ghoul oc but I never know where to start when sharing new ocs and ACK. So we’re gonna try anyways
Their name is Bug/ Mud bc we’re pulling one of those “multi ghouls never have just one name” moments. Bug because I fucking love they like insects and tend to skitter around like a little buggy; mud because they specialize in drums (earth) and bass (water). There’s other reasons behind these names too but you have to be at least lv 1 friend with them to find out.
Mudbug is also acceptable. Reminds them of worms :) and the most common used name.
Garden ghoul… pollinator enthusiast… rock collector. Not one of Primo’s ghouls but plant pawpaw can appreciate their pest control (because invasive species suck). They have a large terrarium in their room dedicated to local detritivores (dead/decaying matter eaters) and often lifts rotting food from the kitchens to feed the lil buggies.
They don’t publicly play music at all. At least, not in a while. The most people have heard the past few months is the thumping happening behind their closed door.
Not all musically talented ghouls have to preform… Not everyone can handle the stage… they weren’t summoned for music anyways. It was just a lucky bonus at the time.
They’re a groundskeeper. Gutters stuffed? They’ll clear them. Rocks in the drive way? Moved to a safe location. Multiple potholes from another ghoul trying to catch a mole? Filled and leveled. Even the scrubbing of gravestones and statues is left to them. There’s just something about losing yourself to the removal of dirt and moss that feels… safe. Comforting. And if that bitch isn’t shining when they’re done.
You know that meme where it’s “aw you’re just a little guy. Actually you’re pretty fucked up”
That’s what it’s like befriending mudbug. Just. Don’t worry about it!
One of my absolute besties is working on a commission of them for me (hi corpse ily corpse) so I’ll happily post that once it’s done. In the mean time, mudbug is 5’6, curvaceous, wears a stag beetle ring on their left middle finger, and has an Impera era mask. The right lense is cracked, it features no distinct patches, and her horns are black with a ring of silver around the mid point.
You have not unlocked casual mudbug yet.
This concludes this post. Swag.
