This is my entry, I changed the costume a bit, she no longer has white gloves, an umbrella and her hat, hope that's okay. The backstory is kind of long but I don't want to delete any of it now.
-----------------------------Backstory-------------------------------------- (This all takes in the 1800's ) Her parents, upon her birth, noticed that she had pointed ears. They took this to mean that she was a child of the devil. Without naming her they quickly whisked her of to the orphanage where the left her on the front step. The mistress of the orphanage eventually found her and took her inside, not even bothering to name her. Everyone at the orphanage was very eager for workers to do sewing and other jobs, for of course schooling was a privilege not given to poor, unfortunate, orphans. She spent 7 horrible years nameless, until one day, kids came along once more, to bully her about her elf ears, the things that got her abandoned. Oh, how did she hate those elf ears, long and crooked and different from everyone else's. In the middle of the tormenting on of the teasers stopped, and said, " what your name, I bet it is something awfully stupid." "name?" she replied. "what's that?" "names, stupid, are what we call things, like that over there is a table." Snickers at this point where echoing through the room. " yes know that", she said, but I thought we all have the same name name, people, like are chairs are chairs." Roars of laughter echo all over the room. She is now almost to the point of tears. Later at night she looks out a window. A pearly milky white circle winks back at her. She has looked at this object sitting high in the sky for years but has never questioned what it s name could be. Now, after today's ordeal it is a question that is banging around in her head, just waiting to be answered. She scampers over to the girl in the next bed, and asks her what the object is. "That, silly, is the Moon." The girl replies. She scampers back into her bed, and thinks for a moment.Then, after a while she says, " Moon, you and I now share the same name. Isn't that lovely?" ( 15 years later) Moon now has something she has dreamed of the very day that she named herself, she is an astronomer, doing what she loves and making enough to live, Moon after so many years, is finally happy. Hey that story was long! Thanks for reading to the end of it! :D
