@Unicorn: I apologize but I do not quite understand. Could you elaborate on your troubles, my friend?
@Tuijp: I would rather it not escalate to violence! I am sure it is merely a misunderstanding. If not, however, I am positive my friends here will help me greatly!
@sunny: Yes! Volties did remarkably on Velvet's request, and I cannot wait to see what possibilities emerge this time around.

@Unicorn: Ah, most certainly! Feel free to post any designs or simply converse with me as I and Leo would love the company.

Can not wait to see what you have in mind!
Submission 1: Birb Slip: Cute fuzzy fluffy bird themed slippers because I am your Voltra neighborhood crazy bird lady (Millet being a beloved seed of many birds) so it would be a crime if I didn't make one submission bird related. (the birb ending with b is not a typo. Its meme lingo haha)
Submission 2: Scaler: A reptile, platform combat boot- though I think one of the yellow varieties should probably be leopard print? or a yellow scale print too idk.
half joke submission 3: "The Modern Trojan". Back in the day you needed a army to operate a trojan horse, with today's advancements you need only one.
If you can walk on stilts you can walk in this metal contraption that still manages to look gallant AF:

Ah, you all came! My apologies for the short notice, but I am unfortunately in quite the bind, and would be most appreciative of any assistance you can offer!
You see, I received a curious call early this morning. It was from the shoe manufacturing company responsible for turning my designs into reality. They informed me that they would no longer be accepting my ideas, and would have to terminate our partnership with no further explanation.
I questioned the decision, of course, and told them I would be more than happy to work with them on pursuing creative avenues that would align with their wants. But suddenly there was this strange laughter before the call cut off as if the line disconnected. When I attempted to redial the number, I reached a voicemail belonging to the company. I left a detailed message, then, and await their reply!
While I do wonder what spurred such a spontaneous move, I have a thought. Perhaps my shoes have indeed grown stale? It is true I have been spending more time on my novel, and artistic block is a strong possibility. That is where you come in, friends!
After your glorious aid to Velvet, I humbly ask that you grant me license to your creative genius! Lobster shoes? Melon clogs? I foresee no end to the innovative possibilities and request thus: share with me your concepts for footwear, and I am sure I could win back the support of this company, or! Hmm.
I could potentially start my own as such programs to produce your own products are becoming popular online, are they not?
Should Vontell start up his own shoe making business?
OR
Should Vontell look for another manufacturer?

@Miss Kitty: "Indeed! Congratulations Team Ice. You deserve the win. Thank you to everyone who cheered us on as well! We still have a shot in the Repechage match." He smiles gently.

Vontell smiles while adjusting the collar of his shirt. Some would call his business attire on the beach to be unorthodox, but such was the writer's way. He's drenched in sweat but still giving it his all.
"They are very good. This game is exhilerating, Vregory! We may not win, but I have enjoyed our partnership."
Vreg nods happily, "Is good fun with dashing man."

Vontell smiles as a bead of sweat drips from his brow.
"It seems we have the support of the masses, Vregory! Let us give this our all."

"Correct, I did not warn you, and I do apologize. However, I will admit to misleading you twice..." he laughed gently, before looking down at his furry companion, "He is more of a friend than a pet... But yes... You have proven yourself..." As he spoke his cocoon began to glow, before The Caterpillar, now The Butterfly, broke free. He smiled down at Static, "Now is the time, my friend, to free me of my curse. I have been bound to this mushroom throne... Let me spread my wings and be free..."
Static nodded in understanding, lifting the heart shaped object in his hand. Summoning his own will, the heart activated, shining bright before suddenly The Butterfly shot up into the air. He few above them with a pleasant laugh, "Well done... Now, before I leave... The Queen's Guards are looking for you, try not to travel the main roads... Farewell, and good travels. You'll be home in no time..."
And with that, The Butterfly was gone.

CATERPILLAR
"I wondered when you would be arriving... I sensed you would be the one to bring change to this land," The Caterpillar laughed softly from inside his cocoon, "That is why I've begun this transformation... But as we wait, let's test one last time..."
"Which of these are untrue?"
@Vontell: I was your guide to the flower garden.
@Vontell: I have a butter-capybara companion.
@Vontell: I warned you of the curse.

The Caterpillar watches you at work with a faint smile, moving to inhale from his pipe. With a sigh he exhales a puff of smoke. When it clears, a small package has mysteriously appeared on a smaller toadstool nearby.
