Eustace has a lot of pets, both supernatural and mundane. Hi and Lois are named after a newspaper comic strip that Eustace likes.
Don’t forget to check out the Kickstarter!!!

I’d noticed the vegetable lamb, though that’s not hard when I think Greg was petting it.
Have you seen Dungeon Meshi? At one point, they decide to eat a vegetable lamb that isn’t ripe and it’s kinda gross.
I remember that! I can’t remember what they said a ripe one tastes like…
Speaking of Dungeon Meshi, um… how… edible would you say some mythical animals (and, um, people, I guess) are? I get that a large part of staying a secret is because of safety, but how many in the mythical community know what they taste like? o.o’
Do you know what the turkey legs are Disney are really made of…?
Now you’re reminding me of the first D&D session I sat in on. The group exited the dungeon and the DM told them the date & time (as if the local chamber of commerce had sponsored a magically-updating sign). The guy I was sitting next to pointed to his character sheet, showing that they’d been inside for a month with the standard one week’s rations. He whispered to me, “What did we eat?”
I whispered back, “You don’t want to know!”
Since then, I’ve joked about such menu items as “Don’t-Ask Stew” and “You-Don’t-Want-To-Know Casserole”.
“The Ranger and the druid took care of us.”
“What?”
“between the two of them, they know a lot about foraging in almost every environment natural, urban, or otherwise. Just don’t ask them where the meat came from.”
“Why n-”
“DO NOT ASK THEM WHERE THE MEAT CAME FROM!”
Looking up that comic: That one page was enough Midwest wholesomeness for probably the rest of my year. XD
I’m from New York! Our bodies aren’t built for that! That was barely a joke!
With almost every mythological creature being somewhat real in your world, my question is are gods and giants and titans from myth real too? Like are they just another classification of creature, or is there something deeper going on?
Seeing how rambunctious young gryphons are, what kind of toys can distract them enough to give their parents a reprieve? I was reading about the Mexican jumping beans of my childhood and for some reason I thought it would have made a great toy for an excited gryphlet.
Hyperactive young kittens are a nightmare from the first minute of the day to the last one, normal young kittens have quiet moments. That is the only difference. Gryphons having feline traits, being a good kid might still mean rambuctious, but with rest periods. :D
Now you’ve reminded me of a kitten my buddy and I (both recent science students at uni) named Joule. That’s a metric unit of energy defined in terms of motion, but it’s pronounced like “Jewel”.

I also want to hear about mythical toys!
But just t be clear, grphons are not rambunctious by nature of their species. Pul and Tobias were good boys:

Colin and Jim were just hyperactive.
