Stuffie Magic!
Added 2022-06-16 23:50:57 +0000 UTCI just finished writing Stuffie Quest: Chapter 1.
It'll publish here this coming Tuesday. In the meantime, I wanted to do a quick preview of Stuffie Magic! There are several StuffieArts, but in this case Beartholomew is using Threadmaturgy.

Two more shooting stars flashed into the clouds. Something strange was going on. Beartholomew shuffled to the edge of Briana’s adult-crib, where a splinter lay hidden next to one of the bars. In a matter of moments he had his paw caught on it, yanking a thread free.
Teasing the thread out further, Beartholomew coaxed it off the splinter and wove it into a pattern in front of him. Threadmaturgy caught the brown line and spun it about, twisting it into shapes and symbols that only a learned stuffie could interpret.
The signs were very bad. Beartholomew felt squished in his torso, as if he’d been stepped on. He read them again, to be sure that he was seeing correctly.
The Scissors, The Gum, and The Tearing. Combat, curse, and wounding, respectively. Only the last sign was not dire. Even so, The Cardboard Box was a mixed sign. It could mean a new adventure, or imprisonment.
