The howls in the leafless trees of the Sleepy Snowy Hollows send chills down Jeanne's lack of a spine. Jeanne was going out to pick berries, but ended up lost. Jeanne chitters nervously, hearing an echoing cackle in response.
Jeanne looks to see where the laughter is coming from, seeing Knitto with a grayscale cubit... seemingly inverted? "Sokket, I gotta say," Knitto says cackling, "It was real difficult to transport to the Moon and back! I mean... you'd think using a cannon as a jetpack would be inefficient! And... well it is!" Sokket rolls it's real eye, trying not to get it's costume snagged by the many twigs belying the ground, ready to break the costume and drain the essence of those that see Sokket's true form.
Sokket groans, barely able to move at all on it's own, before noticing Jeanne. Sokket grins, as sock puppets can... attempt to express. As Jeanne approaches, it accidentally steps on the cat Nixel's fake tail, making them sad. "ExCUSE me," Knitto says, "Do you have ANY manners???" She pulls out a cannon filled with round-eared Nixels, slapping it on the cat Nixel.
The Nixel fires out the Nixels with zero mercy, overwhelming and ripping parts of Jeanne's legs. A nearby Lankzo is sniffing around, finding Jeanne. Lankzo feels sad, making a fax noise toward Planet Mixel.
A mysterious Clothian known as Glave-Gleve appears, stitching up and healing Jeanne's injuries. "Ohh,, hhello!! I am Glave. And I'm Gleve! We hhelp Clothians in need so,, yeah!" Sokket sputters, sounding like a dying mixamal. Glave-Gleve nervously sweats, "We're afraid that fellow is beyond repair,," They then disappear.
Many Nixels strewn about, Knitto and Sokket don't even have words to describe how ticked off they are. Sokket pulls out a neutral cubit, the two Mixels get surrounded by stabbing, painful shell piercing and caking... as their Mixel flesh stings and morphs. The various Nixels having their white flesh string around like cheese. The two's cloth-like material would seem fitting, but only worsens the pain.
The mux roars, Jeanne being bombarded by horrific messages that Lankzo is unaware of. Lankzo spits out a cubit to help Jeanne calm down. However, as Jeanne grabs for it, Lankzo books it, leading Jeanne to follow close behind. The mux scampers after them with a muckton of legs, zigzagging due to a lack of coordination.
Lankzo slows down, sensing they've lost the mux in the woods. Jeanne catches their breath, grabbing the cubit with it's leg. A trumpet plays as the two are packed up and shipped to the Frozen Volcanoes. When the shipment returns, it's now a super lanky mix with a 30-day return policy.
"yOOO000uuUV caaAAnN RUVNN," the mux says, "BUUVUUT YOO000U CAANNN0T HII11D3E..." the mix is horrified, since both can understand it's scratchy way of forcing out words through the teethy, flaky and moist flesh-filled gullet. Nonetheless, the mix jumpscares the mux, kicking the abomination so hard it splits and the Mixels careen to the edge of the woods.
