  Summary

  Or: How Polly Became Poly

  The origins and tales of my darling gremlin skeleton OC with a love for neon colors and heelies.

  The story of how Polly's life was before becoming the healer for Nightmare and his gang, and some of the aftermath as well. Many downs, followed by ups, a nice slice of life for us and a new life for them.

  It always gets worse before it gets better.

  Summary

  Polly just wants a quiet night in the gardens of Nightmare's Castle. Such a shame their rather handsome yet persistent guard refuses to leave them be.

  My first fic with my favorite OC, Polly! A half skeleton, half lizard monster who can't fight but can heal.

  Just what the LV-ridden Cross ordered.
