Cursed Buddoll

The day after hallows day, Cupio started to feel pretty productive, so he dragged Bludbag and his pets Gleeble to help him clean out the attic. “I know this sucks, but we gotta clear out space, the shops are getting full, and no one's buying, my stuffs gotta go.” Bludbag huffed sadly, not really wanting anything taken away, and tried to drag a large tome off a very comically small table, it dropped to the ground leaving a cloud of 5 years of dust and most likely mold… “BLUD WHAT THE- Are you okay…?” Cupio picked up the book and waved away the dust, gently picking up the poor Budling from the cloud of dust, Blud snuffled. After some time, almost everything was sorted to be sold or kept but the book layed on the middle of the floor, untouched, until Cupios foot hit it, he picked it up and took a closer look ‘Oh, woah, I haven't seen this in ages! This was some creepy story I bought at that one shop!” Cupio looked at Blud “I should totally read this!” Blud just grumbled, she really just wanted to get out of the creepy attic already, her eye staring at the dark edges of the attic. Bludbag settles in Cupio's lap on the floor with Gleeble seemingly absent mindedly staring out the small attic window, though there was not much to see. “So the story goes… a young succubud missing… yata yata… Dark forest… Just some child's story.. Blegh.. There's noth- oh something interesting! Blud, look at this,” Cupio moves the book down lower to show Bludbag, “Instructions to some place, an altar..? Let's give it a look?” Blud protested for a couple of days about Cupio visiting, but curiosity eventually took hold. The leaves crunched under Cupio and Bluds feet, Cupio held a large bag with books, food, and water, though even with such preparation a feeling of unease swept under the both of them, every step Cupio took, it felt heavier, more drowsy, his legs shook as his monitor began to glitch, it made a grating screech enough to make your ears bleed, his vision flatlines and he collapses. Blud has never been an expert at anything, but she doubted that Cupio would wake any time soon, so she dragged him with her small stubby legs working hard to pull him to the altar, even if its not particularly safe, dragging him all the way back to even the Monibuds, who knows what scary things lurked in the woods? Blud isnt the strongest, and Cupio is faster than he is strong. And so Blud dragged… and dragged.. And dragged. The altar was there, a raised mound nearby. Did she really want to know what was in the mound? Not reall- “Blud… You there..? Where.. Are we?” “Mhm, altar!” “oh..Can you.. Tell me a joke..?” “Oh… hm.What do you call 2 monibud chefs?.. they’re Taste buds.. Because..” Blud started to go quiet, her eye couldnt look at him.. “Heheh.. Don't worry I get it.. I..” Cupios' eyes darken and he falls back asleep.. Blud just looks at him helplessly. Blud looks up at the ever darkening sky, and moves closer to Cupio, she would not let anyone hurt her friend, not while she's here.. Hours go by where she stares at his monitor, everythings fine and he’s breathing… Blud stares at the altar, It's decorated with flowers, trinkets, and small toys.. Her eye lands on something familiar to her, a buddoll nearby, it casts a shadow over the two.. She looks at Cupio, one moment won't kill him. She slinked towards the doll and picked it up with her tendrils. She hears Cupio rustle and immediately goes back to him, his eyes are glazed, unfocused. “Come closer~” for a moment Blud could see a figure Cupio suddenly picks up Blud, his moniter going off and Cupio shaking more with every second. “I think.. we should go home.” After that day Cupio planned to go alone, While Blud slept, he crept out of his home and went to the altar, and approached the doll. He felt tired and everything despite being bleak, felt overwhelming and too much to process. “Come closer~” Cupio takes a step forward and sees an apparition of a Succubud, a buddoll in hand, looking as if grieving.. “I'm close enough, can you understand me?” The ghostly succubud looks up slowly. “Let's chat. You and me.”
