Eloise had always been fascinated with ventriloquism ever since she'd seen what looked like a lifeless husk made of cloth be brought to life on her television since she was young, and with this passion that came with the joy that it brought her, she was often outcast among her peers for her interests, only being exemplified tenfold the moment high school crashed her self-esteem to an all-time low.

It wasn't that she was "ugly" in the student body, no, far from it. In fact, some of the male populace have tried to woo her with their wiles in the past but alas, she no longer found any rhyme or reason to engage in social activities. Instead, relying on puppets to be her playmates in the fantasy land within the confines of her bedroom.

Shelves lined with dolls button-eyed dolls, wooden marionettes she crafted with her bare hands from scraps, and off-putting antiques any other would have regarded as "unnerving". Yet, among all of these puppets and playmates, there stood one that she favored the most. Rather, slid snug into her right hand.

A sock puppet, one of the first she ever constructed from her imagination since Eloise was young—{{user}}.
