storyteller mimosa revival when?!

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

The boyo is now 22

And he...

Decided to write a letter to people really important for him

Tw: death and war mention! Stay safe!

I'mma tag a couple of people

Mimosa is a dark cream shipchild inspired by @zu-is-here 's dark cream comic

Cross belongs to @jakei95

Shattered Dream belongs to @shattereddreamsau

Shine and Malignance belong to @creative-firebug

The rest of the characters (Lint, Mynn, "the messenger" aka Jasy ) in are mine, @bluepalleteuniverse

I used this website to turn the text into some sort of letter (I wanted to use Mimosa's font, "happy monkey", but was feeling too lazy to spent time searching how to do that)

Under the cut the same text but typed

Hello dads, 

I'm finally writing to you like I wanted to for a long while. But it was hard to find the words, you know? Each time, I ended up crying and messing with the ink after the two first sentences. But I guess I'm more ready now. Am I really? Well, I'm as ready as I can. And it only took me what? 14 years! It has been a long while, uh. I'm no longer the child you knew.I'm 21 now. No, actually I'm 22, it's my birthday today. I lived longer without you two than with you now...

I have to warn you, Daddy, Dada, this letter will be long and probably messy. A lot of things happened in 14 years and I want to lie down on the paper many thoughts I had during those. So hum, story time ?

I don't think I'd muster the courage to make this letter without a recent someone's visit. You must have seen them before, they were carrying a message from you after all. And what a message it was. I'll write it down here. I know you surely remember it still but I'm gonna keep this letter anyway and I never want to forget it. I'll put it at the end of the paper so you can easily ignore it and I can easily find it to read later. 

I never want to forget something that important ever again. Like I did with Mu when I was young. Yes, I remember Mu. I remember my dear little sister. And you were right, she was alive. I found her randomly when Lint dragged me- Lint is a friend who is also a half-sister? Like one of her parents is you, Daddy, but less dark ? Ok so, I found her during a play trip. She was in a house in an empty town nearby. Near where you died. Oh, I thought my hand would shake harder than that writing that! I guess time really heals anything...

Well almost. You're still pretty much dead. So I found her so no need to worry anymore! She's doing extra well! She decided to go to school in a deltarune au. You must know this kind of universe, well Fancy told me you knew and since he has your memories I think I can believe that information. Fancy is one of the persons who took care of Mu by the way. He's a nice guy. You would have found him a bit weird? Especially with the whole "I-was-born-from-a-war" thing. I should ask him what you'd think about him later...

Speaking about the war stuff...

Yes, I know why you left. However I'll do as if I didn't hear your message yet or learnt what I know for a second. I'm gonna be honest, a lot of things went through my mind that day and none of them including the fact you left without warning to fight in a war you'd die in. Once I learned the truth. I was relieved about one thing. You didn't leave because of me. I thought for long it had been my fault. That I had been a bad child that you ended up being fed up about. It's probably why I tried so hard to please anyone I'd reluctantly accept to get close enough to call them family. At least, that way of thinking did give me a new family. Plenty of siblings and friends spread across universes and multiverses. I never was truly alone since you left but for long I felt like I was alone even with others. I couldn't get the right words on it when I was young but I guess I really missed you. Yes, even you, Daddy, I don't blame you for shouting at me when Mu disappeared. Not that I think it was right of you to do that obviously. But I forgave you long ago. So don't you dare guiltrip yourself with that!

When I'm still not ready to forgive is the fact you didn't tell me you were leaving the house... Hey but I'll write you another letter when I'm ready. So don't you worry about that! And give me a bit of time. I promise I'll make an effort about that! :D

Also you know how you were worried about the fact I couldn't use magic ? Well except for vital stuff like seeing or eating. I can use magic! I still can't do stuff like throwing bones, summoning constructs, heal easily or just move my tentacles (I'm a bit salty I never manage to move these but life is life) but!

I can do portals !

Really inconvenient portals but still! 

I use them to visit various universes and gather stories! Oh yes I forgot to tell you. I'm a sort of storyteller now? I move around, listen and tell stories to who's ready to listen. It's not a well-paid job or something very important but I like it. I know you'd prefer if I had been some kind of warrior however I stay pretty bad in a fight. I had plenty of people who tried to teach me some moves and it never stuck. Even if I did know how to fight, even then I'm not sure I would nonetheless. But I know how to dodge and I'm fast so I usually don't even have to think about fighting ! I wonder if you'd like my friends? Lint is a bit chaotic but always somewhat nice to others, Mynn is responsible but stubborn. Would you have liked my adoptive siblings, Shine and Malignance, as well ? They saved me. And continued to save me again and again since then. Without asking questions. I never felt alone with them. Well, I felt alone but I never truly was? I don't know if I'm making sense but I can't explain it any better. 

What could I tell you other than that? Oh yes! I know what's up with my magic. A monster named "Sci" or was it a nickname ? He examined my soul. I know you told me to never show it to a stranger but it was a health matter. My family. Uh my new family I mean. They wanted to be sure I was ok. Because as you know, my healing is far worse than most. I didn't understand everything. But it's a matter of corruption, he told me. My soul and my magic doesn't like the corruption I was born with so they fight. They use all their strength to avoid that the corruption touch my soul and that's why I can't move my tentacles! They're just not connected to my soul ! Which sadly means I'll never be able to move them but at least I know why... I just hid them in my backpack these days, it's easier than dragging them around. I was told to avoid being low in magic and big stress? I'm not entirely sure why but I swear I'm being careful ! So don't you two worry about that. I'm making friends from everywhere and life is great. I still miss you sometimes. Often. 

... 

Do you know sewing with a knife isn't that hard? As long as the knife isn't too sharp and the string too thin it's pretty easy. I practiced for a while and now nobody would be able to guess I'm making my stitches with anything other than these horrendous things called "sewing needles". Let's not talk about those...

I'm running out of things to say, am I not? I need to say goodbye soon. But I don't want to. Not yet.

I waited so long, wishing to be able to say a proper goodbye. However, now that I have reached that moment... I don't want to anymore. I feel as if you two (or more so my memories of you two) will fade away the instant I write these final words? 

Allow me to be selfish for a little longer, will you?

I need to end the letter soon, I'm starting to shake again. 

But I just wanted you to know I survived alright. I couldn't follow all your advice as I got your message a bit late. And I would have loved to find the knives you were talking about but Fancy told me the house was destroyed... I don't need them anymore however.

I'm building my life.

I don't know where I am going exactly. But I am.

I am going.

Thanks for taking care of me for 8 years.

Your message or what I remember of it (and I asked the messenger to tell it again and again so I think I remember everything right):

"Mimosa my baby, we're sorry. So so sorry but you're gonna... You're gonna have to continue alone. We- We made a mistake and I can't imagine how you must be feeling right now. We shouldn't have left you alone like that. I guess we thought it would be quick. *Ugly chuckles* But now... We can't even come back and you're alone in this big house. And we were living such a hidden life that I know we were all you had. You never complained about that but I- no We were wrong and I can see that now. You don't even have any friends because of that. But after Mu... It was your lil' sister but you forgot about her. She disappeared when you were 4 and after that... We were afraid to loose you as well if we left you out too much... Sorry. Sorry. Sorry.  We left the messenger a bunch of names and places you could ask for help. But I have no idea how many are still... there...

"Stop avoiding the words. They're dead. Probably all of them. We're dead, Mimi. We won't come back. You have to be strong and survive. You are strong and fast, not powerful, but you can do it. Flee when you can't win, be smart. If you see us again, you're allowed to punch as hard as you can then run. Run for your life. Steal, hurt, swear. I want you to do anything you have to do to live. Maybe you'll end up finding your little sister on the way."

"Dream…"

'No, I'm sure she's alive somewhere. If you find her, protect her. You're the big brother after all. Orange eyes. Mute girl. A tentacle around the neck. You can't miss her.

Take the knives I'm hiding under my pillow as well. And take care of yourself or else-

...

I love you you lil' crybaby"

"I love you too"

"Goodbye."

See you Daddy,

See you Dada,

your son,

Mimosa.

#long post #it long #messy writing #it's been quite a time since last time I posted here uh ;) #I should redrew the ref or stuff #I hope you enjoy reading that as much as I enjoyed writing that #it's so long and yet... not everything was said

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

mimosa are you like traveling? you also have magic right because you don’t send a blaster to carry the bag as well?

Mimosa : I like to travel ! Other universes and worlds are fun to visit. I stop here and there to listen and tell stories.

Blasters? I don't have those. Are blasters this common? Towards magic, well... I can't do much.

*shrugs*

The only thing I can do is portals but they are really limited. I can do one per universe but I don't choose where to place it and I can't change the location. I can only use it at that exact location after. I'm not sure if I'm clear? It took me a while to understand it myself. Oh! I know ! I made a drawing last time I explained it, perhaps it will help.

(lil' drawing came from an older ask)

I don't need magic to carry around my bags. I have three.

The bigger one weighs pretty much nothing despite its size! A friend of mine is good with enchantment and put one on my bag so it's very light and I can put about anything in it. Like an inventory. If it's big like that it's because I'm using it as a cushion when I sleep outside it's comfy. The backpack I wear most of the time is actually a "fake" bag. Let me show you.

*removes the bag*

The bag is empty. I use it to hide my goopy tentacles. It's more practical than having to hold them or drag them. They are limp, I can't move it so it can be annoying. So putting them into the backpack is easier.

The smaller bag is for my important stuff. Sometimes it's empty. Sometimes it's not.

#ask #bags #magic #blaster #kiwi-draw #the one that put the enchantment on the bag is Seabyl for those who know her

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

hey mimosa brought gifts * a box of cookies and a badly knitted garment *

Mimosa :"Oh! Gifts! Thanks, that's very kind of you."

*takes your knitted garment and fold it carefully before putting it in his bigger bag*

"I'll keep it preciously."

*puts a cookie in his mouth before starting to talk again*

"Do you want one too? There're enough to share."

*swallows whole the cookie*

"If you're fast enough, I'm sure you can eat some before I end the box."

*smirks*

"Anyway... Do you mind if I removed my backpack? I need to scratch my back byut it's hard to access where it's itchy with the bag on."

You will always be a baby bean <3

Mimosa : I'm a grown-up skeleton. Don't call me a baby.

Ok, I guess I can act like a baby sometimes. But if I'm a baby, I may call you a cute toddler. I don't leave you the choice.

Today adult!Mimosa is 21 years old 🎉

He decided to go back home to spend his birthday with his family.

#not like I have a whole lot of asks anyway #but I thought it would be nice to make him go home for the day

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

Do you ever heard about someone called Mu?

Oh hello! Been a while since last time I had some visit.

Mu? If you're talking about my baby sister, obviously I know her. *Soft laugh* I shouldn't call her baby anymore, she's already 16 after all.

I'm wondering what she's currently doing ? She's going to a school in this au, I hope she's making friends...

[Mu belongs to me]

#ask #oh you sneaky pants I didn't think someone would actually come here to ask about Mu #this blog is the ultimate spoiler XD #anon

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

So, what do you think of your siblings datemates?

Oh you wanna know about my siblings's datemates ? I don't know why but I have the feeling someone already asked me this question a long time ago... So the datemates ! They're all quite interesting ! I can only talk about four of them actually... Ursula, Butterfly, Rooth and Nova.

It's been a while since my first meeting with Ursula ! I think she fit nicely in our little -hm- big family. I don't really understand how Mirage convinced her... She's all sweet while Mirage... I forgot how many times he yeets me by the window... I know it takes a lot to actually hurt me but I don't know how to fly, Mirage. *Whispers* Unlike the ladybug I put on his shoulder last time.

Everybody was confused and I'm sure I heard at least one "he got a point". Yeah, fun days. *Giggles*

I think Ursula was there for all my dumbest things. *Dry laugh* She fainted one time. Mirage was mad. Had to hide all day on the roof.

I think the day I learned Reaper was her parent was quite funny. I runned everywhere happily shouting "Death is in our family!"

Obviously, I tried to touch Reaper. I didn't succeed. But only because he cheated! I can't fly and Ursula's daughter refused to help me. Now that I think about it, the fact I didn't touch death this day was, probably, for the best.

*Deep thinking*

*Giggles*

Anyway enough talking about Ursula ! Let's talk about Butterfly ! Some could find her scary I guess. She got quite the temper sometimes. I guess I'm kinda used to see her around since she's Malignance's datemate. I guess she got used to me too since I managed to survive to calling her "not-a-knife" as a nickname... several times...

I always give something that's not a knife at each of her birthdays. For example, last time it was a chocolate knife. It looked like a real knife. I remembered when she found out it was just chocolate. I was long gone at that moment. I waited a few days to come back. Just to be safe. Better be safe than sorry, no? That's what people say... I think.

Rooth, now. Rooth is nice! He takes good care of Apollo. I remembered someone calling Rooth and Apollo "bunnies"...? I still haven't understand this one honestly. They don't look like bunnies at all. Rooth kinda looks like a dog tho. Big paws. Waggy tail. One thing I can say is...

Dog this part of the family is so big, I'm completly lost.

*Laugh*

I'm glad I don't have to give gifts to each member for the birthdays and things like christmas... It would be never ending !

*Looks at his fingers*

Ursula... Butterfly... Rooth... And...

Yes Nova!

I don't have a lot to say about Nova...? Been a long while since last time I saw him. Same goes with Star. I saw often enough baby Sigma but their parents?

*Shrugs*

Ah I know ! One thing I noticed! He knows a lot about space. It's interesting to listen.

Now if-

Are you listening to me ? You look... sleepy?

Aww I was too long to answer? Sorry! We'll talk another time, take some rest! I hope to see you in perfect shape another time. Bye!

Hello Epoch! How are you?

(Hi Coffee! Btw just in case you don't know... The events of this side blog took place in a future timeline. 12 years in the future, St! Mimosa is 20. So you have 2 choices. Add 12 years to Epoch age or keep his age and tell this Epoch isn't from this timeline. The choice is yours (≧▽≦). It only matters if you send others asks tho XD)

Apparently you have a "cursed book", can you tell us about it?

A "cursed book" ?

Oh that's how my sib' call my notebook! You're already see it. I did all my sketchs for the stories and explanations in it. I wrote a lot of things since my childhood. Like "the training is better with several persons" or "Mirage lost his friendship bracelets privileges". The whole family began to call it "cursed" suddenly.

*Confused noises*

I don't know why...? But it became a dare to snatch the "cursed book". I guess the first time, someone did... fall in the stairs after taking it...

*Looks at the notebook suspiciously*

Nu It's not cursed but definitly magic.

If not... How do you explain that I never run out of place after having it for like... 16 years?

#ask #Mimosa #cursed book

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

Could you tell me a story of one of the places you visited, please? You're a pretty good storyteller, btw.

Mmmmm

I know! I'll tell you this one.

It was when I was still learning how to use correctly my portals... I was so happy to finally be able to use a bit of magic! And I was so eager to try it that I left at the moment to a foreign place. It was foolish. Really. I wasn't aware of my limits.

In fact, my portals are restrictive. I can only create a portal at one and only one location in an au.

Hold on, lemme grab my notebook...

If I need to create a new portal to leave, I need to do it at the exact same place as the first portal I used to come in.

This day I stuck my portal in a tree, a big tree. First mistake.

Hum hum let me tell you about the place I fall on this first "fly".

It was quite beautiful. After climbing down the tall plant (falling on the butt), I took time to look around. The forest I was in had giant blueish trees with fiery leaves. Some birds were singing a soft song. I learned their names long after but it's another story.

Despite the pain from the fall, I was looking around astonished of this new wolrd. I'm pretty sure, one of my eye was a star at this moment. So much new things to discover! I spend quite a time looking at a mushroom pumpkin. Yeah! A mushroom pumpkin ! Little round orange things with blue and white hats! I wondered what the taste could be ? More mushroom or more pumpkin ? I had an answer quick. Rotten apples. Makes me sick for half an hour. Don't eat weird plants. Curiosity kills the dumb cat. Don't worry, I didn't die. It would be a pretty bad story if I died from pumpkin mushrooms... Or was it mushroom pumpkin? Not sure anymore.

I followed a path of green flowers after the effect stopped. I should stop putting foreign objects in my mouth. Never did me any well.

Followed the path for a while, the night was already here before I found anything.

But what I found then is a small village. Empty. Well, I thought it was empty. The houses were the color of the dirt. The only colorful element was a statue in the very middle of the village. It was a pink pig... With wings...? I found it instantaneously awesome ! It was a rough work, all in rock. The paint was fading here and there and plants were climbing on it but!

Boi I was excited! I absolutly loved the idea of flying pig. Are there actually flying pigs here? Where ? In the trees? Is that why the trees are this tall? Where there flying pigs's nests in the trees? In fact I don't really remember about what I thought but I guess it was something like that...

I spend so much time looking at it that I didn't notice the place wasn't empty anymore. Of course when I fell no-nose to nose with a pig very much alive, I was a bit... startled. I screamed.

Pigs, pigs, pigs everywhere. Looked like they heard me coming. They must have hide. I was kinda worried about the number of the pink beasts. One came closer and just stayed there staring at me. I stared back obviously. The pig won the stare fight.

Pig gave me a banana after so I guess I didn't need to worry... It was a great day! I don't know if you've ever been at a pig party but it's pretty cool. We played touch-the-pig, pigball, pig-pong and so more! I don't really remember the other games but I'm sure I had fun anyway. I learned about the flying pig's legend. Not by the pigs mouth. Pigs don't talk, crazy nut. But they aren't half bad to draw and write. If I understood right, the flying pig is a deity. If a pig succeed to reach and climb the tallest tree of the land, the flying pig give them the ability to fly. But when a new pig climb up, the blessing is taken from the former and given to the new. At the end, the pigs never try to fly, scared to lost the ability too far from the ground. I don't know if there is some truth in this legend but since I had to catch a tiny piglet falling from the sky at one moment...

The party ended at dawn and sleeping corpses were in every corner. I decided to go home then. Not enough tired to sleep on the ground.

I panicked when I found out I couldn't open a portal... I tried very hard. But no magic portals. I calmed down the faster possible. Panic wasn't the good answer. Of course I didn't take any devices that could be use to go home or call someone. Sitting on the ground, eyes closed, deep breaths, emptying my head. Why couldn't I open a portal? I came with one just fine! I could almost still feel it! Wait...? I could still feel my portal back where I opened it. It didn't close itself after or something like that? I needed to go see. So I went all the way back to the tree. Tall tree. I'm sure the size is average here but oh dear it was tall.

I must have a sketch of it. Here !

Oh but it's getting dark... You won't see anything.... Hold on- A bit of light, please?

Better!

It was a no-no for me. I was far too tired for this. So I stayed staring at it. For a while... I didn't know any other way to leave. At least, the pigs are funny and the place looks safe. This one, in front of me, have a green bow on his tail. It's cute.

What are you doing here, piggie? You followed me? Where are your friends?

The piggie had followed me. And the pig friends stood behind me, forming a huge pile of pigs.

One, two, three... twenty-eight, twenty-nine... 29 pigs... On top of each other... And if Piggie climb up, it would 30... No 30 is too much. Stay there Piggie. But the pile was enough to reach the top of the tree... It seemed. I must have stared for too long because Piggie bite my hand.

Ok, Ok, I'll climb up and be the 30th pig.

I won't talk about how it is to climb a huge pile of pigs. You'll have to try it yourself.

When I was finally there, I tried to found out my portal. Not there. No portal. Last try, opening a new portal here. The portal opened and it felt right.

Yeah back to home!

That's where this story ends. I always think about it when I'm eating ham.

Oh and before you leave ! Thank you for telling I'm a pretty good storyteller ! You're a great listener!

[ask-storyteller-mimosa]

Do you have any stories about your siblings?

*Mimosa sat under a tree*

Mmm stories about my siblings ? Yes I have some! But on wich one? I'm from a big family! If you want stories on one in particular, you'll need to be more precise!

Hm hm. So do you know about Oriana? Sis can only be seen and heard by us. And I have a blind brother, Apollo. So since Apollo couldn't see them and nobody tell him no one could see or hear Oriana. For months, all strangers meeting the two together left convinced the poor boy was hearing voices and Mirage found the idea so funny... he tried to make Apollo believe it as well. Apollo was just sad to not be able to hug the bean.

So Mirage have a partner, Ursula. Ursula did often clothes for others. She even made me socks once! However, there was this time where she was sick but wanted to do clothes even then. Mirage had the ugliest bright green sweater I never seen! *Laughs*

It had 3 arms! We were all amused by it until Ursula succeed to made others... For us...

This day became the ugly sweater day. Each year we put on ugly sweaters. And wear them very seriously all day. If one sibling laughs, they'll have to do whatever the sibling (who makes them laugh) wants for the following day! I lost last year on a neon pink sweater with a big yellow nose... I had to walk on my hands for 24h...

The twins kept throwing up on everybody. We lost one once, found them under a rock. I don't know how.

So Shine. Shine is affected by other's feelings and can be hurt by them. We were on the beach and Shine kept getting hurt by happy feelings. It was strange because everybody was too worried to be happy. It took a while to found the culprit... A VERY cheerful lobster... Yeah a lobster... We called them Lob. Last time I visit them, Lob was quite healthy and almost more cheerful than before.

Ow I could keep talking for a while... But it'll stop there today! I'm kinda hungry. If you want other stories on specific subjects or people, you can always ask. But later. My legendary sandwich is waiting.

#ask #sibling story #Mimosa would have never stop if not for his sandwich
