Messages on Different Familiars

  • Angry Goat: Your familiar harrumphs and growls, but still smiles with his wax lips.
  • Astral Badger: You witness the badger slightly shred the wax lips with his sharp teeth. Better to witness the badger than badger the witness, I always say.
  • Attention-Deficit Demon: Your familiar smiles through his wax lips, then starts chewing on them, then sticks them to his forehead, then starts playing rock-paper-scissors with himself.
  • Baby Gravy Fairy: Your familiar grins a blissed-out grin, the way only mushrooms and fairies can.
  • Baby Yeti: Your familiar grins carnivorously with his wax lips.
  • Barrrnacle: Your familiar smiles almost as if he were a creature incapable of facial expressions who had some wax lips stuck on his shell.
  • Cheshire Bat: Your familiar disappears and reappears, leaving only the wax lips floating in the air in a curious (and curiouser) smile.
  • Clockwork Grapefruit: O, my droogies, Your familiar grins a real horrorshow grin with his wax goobers.
  • Cocoabo: Your familiar smiles uncomfortably with his wax lips. If anyone asks, "do cocoabos have lips?", now the answer is "yes."
  • Coffee Pixie: Your familiar is vibrating so fast her wax lips are a blur, but she appears to be smiling.
  • Crimbo Elf: Your familiar smiles reluctantly with his wax lips.
  • Dandy Lion: Your familiar's fangs poke through the wax lips, making him lisp even more than usual.
  • Emo Squid: Your familiar smiles brightly with his wax lips, but the pain inside still seethes and burns. Your familiar begins to sob.
  • Flaming Gravy Fairy: Your familiar grins with wax lips that are rapidly melting into a bright red liquid.
  • Fuzzy Dice: Your familiar grins with his wax lips. How he manages to roll with the wax lips stuck on one side, we don't know.
  • Ghuol Whelp: Oddly enough, Your familiar grins ghuolishly with his wax lips. At least they hide what he's got stuck in his teeth.
  • Grue: A gleam of white (and bright red) in the dark indicate that Your familiar is smiling with his wax lips.
  • Hand Turkey: Your familiar smiles with his wax lips -- it's a smile you know like the back of your hand.
  • Hanukkimbo dreidl: Your familiar spins again and lands with the wax lips facing up in a very kosher smile.
  • Hovering Sombrero: Your familiar hace una sonrisa brillante con sus labios de cera. (Translation: It does a brilliant smile with its lips of wax.)
  • Jill-O-Lantern: Your familiar smiles brightly with her wax lips, pleased to finally have a full set of teeth.
  • Jitterbug : Your familiar buzzes a catchy tune behind her wax lips.
  • Killer Bee: Your familiar smiles predatorially with his wax lips.
  • Leprechaun: Begorrah, Your familiar grins an Irish grin with his wax lips.
  • Levitating Potato: Your familiar smiles a tuberiffic, tubular smile with his wax lips.
  • Misshapen Animal Skeleton: grins with the wax lips stuck to its skull, making it look even more creepy and disjointed than it did before.
  • Mosquito: Your familiar buzzes ominously while smiling with his wax lips.
  • Nervous Tick: The wax lips bounce up and down as your familiar twitches uncontrollably behind them.
  • Ninja Pirate Zombie Robot: Your familiar grins at you with the wax lips stuck to the outside of his mask. The effect is, on the whole, disturbing.
  • Ninja Snowflake: You see your snowflake smile, the faint impression of the wax lips visible behind his tiny mask.
  • Origami Towel Crane: Your familiar grins at you with its wax lips, and flaps its wings listlessly.
  • Personal Raincloud: Your familiar smiles quickly with the wax lips, before you can wonder how you can stick wax lips on a cloud.
  • Pygmy Bugbear Shaman: Your familiar smiles extra wide with his wax lips. He looks so cute you could just strangle him.
  • Sabre-Toothed Lime: Your familiar grins and almost loses his wax lips (they don't fit well over the sabre teeth, you see).
  • Scary Death Orb: Your familiar bobs up and down in the air, with the wax lips stuck to its front. This is not the strangest thing you've ever seen, but it's close.
  • Snowy Owl: Your familiar pokes its beak through the wax lips and says something that sounds like "O RLY?".
  • Spirit Hobo: Your familiar sneaks a sip of booze underneath his wax lips. They look silly perched on his spectral stubble. Not that anyone doesn't look silly in wax lips.
  • Spooky Gravy Fairy: Your familiar smirks and blows clove-scented smoke through her wax lips.
  • Spooky Pirate Skeleton: Your familiar grins happily, since he now has lips. He still doesn't have any guts, though.
  • Stab Bat: Your familiar grins a bloodthirsty, untrustworthy grin with his wax lips.
  • Star Starfish: Your familiar smiles vertically with his wax lips. You must have stuck them on wrong.
  • Stinky Gravy Fairy: Your familiar smiles invitingly with her wax lips, but you still can't stand to get too close.
  • Sweet Nutcracker: Your familiar makes muffled "clop" noises underneath the wax lips.
  • Teddy Bear: Your familiar smiles broadly through the wax lips. First one to make a "grin and bear it" joke gets kneecapped.
  • Temporal Riftlet: Your familiar smiles in slow motion with the lips that are somehow suspended in his howling void.
  • Wild Hare: Your familiar wiggles his nose from underneath the wax lips. You've never seen a hare with a grin like that before, or a grin with hair like that.
  • Wind-up Chattering Teeth: Your familiar grins at you with its wax lips. Well, it's always grinning, but this time it seems like it really means it.

References

  • The description of this item alludes to a quote by Jack Nicholson, as the Joker, "Tell me something, my friend. You ever dance with the devil by the pale moonlight?", from the 1989 movie Batman. The Joker has always had a large waxy smile. In the film the caricature smile was from permanent scarring, in fact similar to large stuck on wax lips in appearance.
  • In the 1983 Steve Martin comedy The Man with Two Brains, his character Dr. Michael Hfuhruhurr places a glass jar containing the living brain of Ms. Anne Uumellmahaye (with whom he has fallen in love) on the stern seat of a rowing dinghy on a boating lake, then sticks a pair of life-size red wax lips on the glass jar, the better to kiss her.
  • A pair of lips is also the signature image used on Rocky Horror Picture Show DVDs, CDs, and posters, as the movie opens with a giant, disembodied pair of lips singing the song 'Science Fiction: Double Feature'. This is a direct steal from the 1972 play by Samuel Beckett, Not I.
