Her thoughts insistently composed gibberish in French to the click of the car wheels. The carriage smelled like the inside of a small boy’s pocket. Her hands sweated under the coarse red blanket. The glow from the electric signs blared over Paris in the distance like the glare of a pottery kiln. It wouldn’t be hard packing, they had so little junk: a broken tea-set, relic of a pilgrimage to Valence from St-Raphael, a few photographs-she was sorry she hadn’t brought the one of David taken on the porch in Connecticut-some books, and David’s crated paintings. She supposed David would leave the linen at the American Express. She had some dirty clothes in the laundry, too-Mademoiselle could pack them with the linen when they moved. It was nice of Mademoiselle to give her a bunch of maguey she was sorry she had forgotten it on the mantelpiece at home. She couldn’t see the maitresse de ballet till the day after she got there. Alabama went over her plans sympathetically to herself as a mother might soothe an unhappy child.

Her suit wasn’t right for second class Yvonne Davidson had made it out of the reflections of an Armistice parade-the lines of the horizon-blue helmet and the sweep of the cape were too generous for the constraint of the scratchy lace-covered benches.

Her face flattened to a stone carving in the mirror. “Be sure to have Mademoiselle get Bonnie’s underwear from Old England-”Īlabama stuck her head inside the dim incandescence of the train lit like a spiritualist’s seance. “Good-bye-Oh, David!” she called as the train shoved away. Unconscious relief buckled their parting with sad constraint-innumerable involuntary associations smothered their good-byes in platonic despair. The weight of their individual reactions separated them like a barrage. “I’d rather feel I could afford it from the beginning.” Won’t you let me have them change you to first?” he said. “I’m going to Switzerland as soon as we can close the apartment-I’ll send Bonnie to you when you’re ready to have her.”Ī demi-Perrier sizzled in the car window. “You’ll get awfully sick of telling people how I’m getting along-” “If you need anything I’ll always be there,” he said.Īlabama cried and swallowed a spoonful of yellow sedative.

Saturated air hung between the train windows and Paris like a heavy blanket.ĭavid and Alabama filled the second class wagon-lit with brassy cigarette smoke. They can move swiftly in it, and they regain their shape when they exit the water.Dahlias stuck out of green tins at the station flower stalls like the paper fans that come with pop-corn packages the oranges were piled like Minie balls along the newsstands the windows of the buffet de la gare sported three American grapefruit like the balls of a gastronomic pawnshop. The melted blobs are known as Dust Blobs. Depending on how big the water is, portions of the Blobs can melt. Puddles of water are fine, but Blobs can melt into big containers of water. Blobs can't 'die,' but they're mostly not resistant to water. Both of Muddele's pets have tentacles, which is ther reason why they're given their names after tentacles. There's Sloppy Blob, which is a messier version of a Blob, LikeBlob, inspiring Like-Likes from The Legend of Zelda, which can only suck you in from the top (the Slime type is the most popular), Tarntacle, which is Muddele's Tar Blob pet with curved horns, and Swampacle, which is Muddele's Swamp pet created by EternalZoroark's Yellow with straight horns. The Blobs have special types, that act different. Since their mass is air-pocketed, they can stay inside Blobs as long as they want without suffocating. If they do get pulled in, they are entirely trapped into a comfy, air-pocketed mass that people can play around in, and they can simply get out if they want to. Sometimes they can pull them in after wrapping their tentacle around them.

Unlike the monsters for most anime 'ooh-la-la' shows (for the purpose of making the content mostly appropriate), the Blobs can wrap them around the human(s) that are inside or outside them, and gives them gentle squeezes. They may look like a threat, but really, they just want to spend some time with you! They'll allow you to go inside them, and depending on the type of quicksand they are, they can suck you in fast, slow, or can have tentacles. These creatures are mutated quicksand types that are created by a special DNA, which also gives them beady eyes. Muddele is also the creator of a bunch of friendly, vore-like lifeforms known as Blobs.
