[under construction] ROY IS HELPING.

Philippe is inscrutable. Philippe loves you. This is fan art; no infringement intended.

Alt-text for some images can get a bit chatty ;)

REGGIE AND ROY DISCO
Close up of a medium sized, medium blue peep and a medium sized, royal blue peep. In the background is a disco ball with multicolored light vibes coming out from it.

Roshelle and/or Roshawn wish you a good day.
Roshelle, a pink zigzag peep, is on the left and Roshawn, a light blue zigzag peep, is on the right. Both are facing the camera.

Roy and Reggie wish you a good morning or whatever your local equivalent is.
Two medium-sized blue peeps. Roy is on the left and is royal blue and shaggy. Reggie is on the right and is a very slightly lighter shade of blue and slightly less shaggy. We haven't come up with the right term for Reggie's shade of blue yet. But Roy is canonically royal blue.

Joshua waits. (Please note that pictures of Joshua's Odyssey are not in chronological order. They were beamed into Roy's transponder buffer in a linear fashion but then Roy re-reticulated the splines without telling us and now they are all jumbled up, like potsherds.)
Joshua, a small yellow peep, waits in a spacious, high-ceilinged lobby with clerestory* windows through which a blue sky can be seen. It's giving airport. Peep seems alert but in a good way. Maybe even excited. *peeps just leared the word "clerestory" and were looking for an excuse to use it in an actual context, as opposed to Roy and Reggie just taking turns yelling it at one another

Joshua can't wait to get to the bottom of peeps morning coffee.
Joshua, a small yellow peep, sits behind a cup of espresso on a hotel breakfast table. The cup is almost full, and part of a logo can be seen on the side. The logo is that of Loumidis Coffee: the word "Loumidis" in all-caps Greek over a picture of a red, green, and white parrot with upstretched wings. Joshua is peering over the rim of the espresso cup and seems to be waiting for the photo shoot to be over so peep can get peeps caffeine hit. Joshua knows that the dregs of Greek coffee are not for drinking, they are for telling fortunes.

ROY SAYS HELLO
Closeup of Roy, a medium-sized, slightly shaggy royal blue peep. Roy looks a bit wired, maybe because peeps fur naturally goes up. But really you're free to project whatever emotion you want onto Roy.

Why is ChatGPT down? Horatio has been eating the cables.

Horatio: *burp*
Horatio, a small, light blue, scallop-patterned peep, sits in front of a stainless steel serving bowl filled with white USB-C cables. A spaghetti server holds some of the cables as if they were spaghetti. Next to Horatio are a tomato, a jar of dried basil, an onion barely visible behind the serving bowl, and a jar of dried oregano. Horatio has a white napkin arranged as if it's tucked into peeps collar, although we're not sure how exactly because peep does not actually have a collar. Maybe it's quantum.

It seems to be working!
Roy, a medium-sized royal blue peep, poses in a closeup against a background of glowing red concentric squares that look suspiciously like the "they've gone to plaid" bit in the Ludicrous Speed scene from Spaceballs (1987).

Leland and Chaka encourage everyone to be kind and stay warm.
Two smalish peeps, Leland the orange one on the left and Chaka the green one on the right, sit on a grey sofa. Peeps are bundled up in a rainbow stripèd knit scarf. Peeps are sharing the scarf; it's a bot too big even for the two of them together.

Some knitting in progress, with assorted boxes of tea in the background. The knitting project is a scarf in stockinette stitch made with self-striping yarn. Dominant colors are shades of blue, pink, and purple, but there are also small fields of orange and tan in there too. Two sets of circular kneedles are visible--one for the actual knitting, and the other to hold a dropped stitch. Three cakes of wool yarn are visible, all of the same type, but with different colorways: one slate blue and peacock blue, one various shades of pink, one grey and tan.

Ziggy (right) meets new friend Aurora. Aurora is named after the Aurora Borealis.
Aurora, a small grey spotted narwhal, has a conversation with Ziggy, a small rainbow tie-dyed peep. They are sitting on a grey couch cushion, with a lught blue corduroy throw pillow behind them.

Ziggy
Peep destroyed peeps dodecahedron
Yes
YES
Ziggy is out

(after "The Tiger" by Nael, age 6)
Ziggy, a small rainbow tie-dyed peep, sits atop a toy dodecahedron, made from magnetic pentagon shapes, that has been partially dismantled.

Philippe Navidad! (a day late)

Ziggy is starting to find some snow!
Ziggy, a small rainbow tie-dyed peep, looks out the window of a moving bus. The roadside trees and grass are covered with a light coating of snow.

Ziggy goes forth in search of snow. Peep has seen a few snowflakes but they're not really showing up in this photo.
Ziggy, a small, rainbow tie-dyed peep looks out an intercity bus window at a road with some leafless trees alongside it. No snowflakes are visible.

ROY WISHES A GOOD WEEKEND TO ALL WHO CELEBRATE
Closeup of Roy, a medium-sized, royal blue, slightly shaggy peep looking at the camera. The camera is centered on Roy's face so you don't see all of peeps ears.

This is McGILL, who is li'l. (Yes, peep is named after the Beatles lyrics.). Peeps name may also be spelled MAGILL or also maybe MACGILL. Peep likes to fly around and enjoys trying new dessert items. Peep has a degree in electrical engineering, apparently. Who knew?
McGill, a little white plushie ghost with a cheery face and cute little arms, sits on a brown houndstooth pattern pillow against a tweedy kind of looking sofa.

This is HORATIO. Peep is a friendly, earnest peep who is still figuring out peeps place in the world. Peep may be developing an interest in marine life and maritime pursuits. Peep looks a little bit like a deer caught in headlights because peep just found out we meant WORLD wide web literally.
Horatio, a smallish, light blue peep whose fur is shaggy in a scallop pattern, looks at the camera. Peep is posing against an upright pillow on a bedspread both of which have multicolored stripes. In the background, out of sight of Horatio, can be seen several other peeps reclining against another pillow. What are those peeps up to? Are they plotting something? This alt-text is not big enough to encompass that investigation. Back to Horatio. Peep is cute but looks maybe a tiny bit intimidated.

This is ROY. ROY is short for ROYAL BLUE PEEP. ROY is understuffed and overcaffeinated. ROY first manifested inthis dimension in a 24-hour CVS. Peep was exposed to bright fluorescent lighting and interruptions at all times, so peep has had some developmental issues.
Roy, a medium-sized, royal blue, somewhat shaggy peep looks at the camera. The background is of a black granite kitchen counter with a wooden bowl full of snacks. In the back can be seen some built-in bookshelves and some small pieces of abstract art.

This is REGGIE. Peep sometimes glides to get around. Peep is best friends with Roy. We'll have a separate thread about the two of them. Reggie knows Ancient Sumerian but tends to keep that knowledge to peepself (Reggie is a peep of few words).
Reggie, a medium-sized medium-blue peep, faces the camera. Peep is sitting against a black wooden headboard, so the top half of the background is a write wall and the bottom half is the black headboard. Peep is a bit shaggy and seems pensive or maybe just minding peeps own business

Philippe says hi! (This is actually an old photo, but peep likes it, not sure it survived the port to this site so here it is). Philippe is admiring some garlic blossoms. Yes, they emit a delicate smell of garlic.
Philippe, a large yellow peep, admires a clear jar holding cut garlic flowers. Most of them are still closed and the buds are purple. There is also a yellow flower in the bunch which I think is from some broccoli or other brassica that sprouted or bolted or whatever the term is.

Hello! This is a thread to introduce the various peeps in our peep collective. Let's start woth PHILIPPE. Philippe is the original peep and is the one whose name goes on most of the paperwork. Philippe is a benign being and loves you just the way you are. Peep is inscrutable.

Roy, a shaggy medium-sized roy blue peep, looks at a laptop screen on which a window shows the progress bar for the Porto app. According to the progress bar, about a third of the 3,000 tweets have been imported to Bluesky so far.
