Tabitha!

The albino eye obsession has started. The last episode of Oddities I watched, Evan & Mike found this amazing mounted albino deer head, and I was totally in love with this thing. Then I bought an albino dove creature from the wonderful berdandwerm on etsy. Then I bought a ton of albino eyes, and I'm ready to go to town with these beauties.
Anyway, we have a new beast tonight- Tabitha the Trepid!

Here is the Tale of Tabitha the Trepid, Also Known As: Cautionary Tale of "Your Face Will Stick That Way."
The night that Hagatha summoned a spirit and channeled it into Tabitha the Prepid's stuffed body, she had a bit of a problem. She had performed the ritual as she always had, but when the smoke cleared, Hagatha couldn't find the spirit anywhere. It wasn't in the beast, and it wasn't still in the summoning circle so... where was it? A flash of movement caught her eye, and she flung her head around to see where it had come from. A rustle in the drapes gave the spirit away, and Hagatha lifted the corner of the material. A tiny white shape crouched there, with its' arms over its head, cowering. Hagatha sighed, picked the barely-corporeal thing up, and placed it into Tabitha's eyes. In the morning, when the beasts came down to introduce themselves, Tabitha nearly had a panic attack! It took a lot of soothing from The Beast Peddler until she wasn't too frightened to speak. Once she was calmed down, she actually had a lot of things to say about constellations and Tarot cards, and was excited to meet everyone. However, since she had been so frightened in the early phase of waking up, her face was frozen in a perpetually-scared mug.
I've really been loving the names that The Prince comes up with for the beast. Continually impressed.
Have a fantastic night!
