African Adventures with Verdana's Wyrms

[Lady Masquerade]

omg
one of the coolest wyrms ever yup
perf <3

Travelling was a lot simpler when I only had two wyrms >.< Now I have five, and after much deliberation, I decided that they would stay home during my holiday. I organised a wyrmsitter, and I hoped that I would be able to leave without too much fuss. I thought they wouldn't notice.

I was horribly wrong.

You see, something is different in the house.

'Mum's clothes are all over the bed.'

'There's a suitcase in the hallway.'

That can only mean one thing: There's an adventure going down. And the squirm wants in on it.

I should have gotten concerned when I caught them conspiring. Fool that I am, I thought they were all finally 'playing nice'.

Then I opened my case, to see this.

When I told them, gently but firmly, that they would not be coming with me, the battle began in earnest.

"Very funny, Vula. Now, out you get."

"I can see you, Tok! No means no. I'm serious. You're not coming."

"Shirts, trousers, swimming costume, so... Wait a second!"

"Oula! Not you too!"

"Clothes? Check. Shoes? Check."
...
"Hold on..."

"Get out of there! You too, Trixie."

"How did you know I was taking that bag? Actually, I'm not even mad. That's amazing."

"Passport, purse, phone, fluff..."
"FLUFF?"

"Come on out, you lot."

I gathered them 'round for a stern telling off... But they looked up at me with those eager, hopeful eyes.

Have to stay firm.

For the good of my holiday.

...

How am I going to get them past airport security?

Awww, thank you Lady! How on earth did you manage that? Give me some notes?

I love your expanding brood too!

[Lady Masquerade]

Giant shoe box. I put 'em all in there, and just carry it around with me. xD

[Hekomi]

I went to walmart and just bought a ton of the little boxes D ships things in. Makes for safe travelling.

I don't like to carry a big purse to places like DisneyWorld, so I only took my hornless platinum point, Plink. She fit in a small side pocket of my purse, and I could take her out and put her back in easily. I would be afraid for my horned wyrms. I do take them all to cons with me, and have a few at my dealer's table for company.

And we return! All wyrms are unscathed (save a tiny bit of sand between Vula's plating) and have flopped into their sleeping spots in a windswept pile.

First, my motley crew went to the beach.
Khan lapping up the sun in a shell deposit.
Vula finds a craggy growler cave.
'What are you lookin' at, bub?'
Oula nestles in a shady alcove.
People-eater finds a cave
'Can I share your ledge?'
Taking shelter from the wind.
'MY branch!'
Beneath the roots.

But, it grew too windy, so the wyrms had to retreat to a safer spot. Thankfully, they found a squirm-sized cave to hide in.

The next adventure was a game reserve only accessible by boat.
Vula on the boat.
Oula watches impala and nyala from a cautious distance.
Khan is curious about these magnificent, horned creatures,
while Nomvula challenges one to a fight.
People-eater laughs at a waterbuck's ringed rump.
He is fascinated by the giraffe.
Oula leans in for a closer look.

Trixie's seen it all, though, and she preferred to curl up on my lap, and let the others gawk. I could see her thinking, 'Amateurs'.

Khan met a curious school of koi fish at an old university.

Then we went to Addo Elephant Park.

There, we saw, as you could expect: lots and lots of elephants! Though Vula was far more interested in a pair of ambling tortoises.

Other venues weren't quite as wyrm-friendly, but rest assured, my squirm had plenty of adventure this past week.
