EDWARD NYGMA

WHAT AM I?

Edward liked riddles. His ability solve them and his pure genius gave him some sense of superiority. Even now- was he just a little better because he had hands and could walk like a man. He felt awkward in this form. His arms were far too long and he already imagined having to make his own clothes. He liked green. A nice green suit would be nice.

Head perked as he listened to their responses, body shifting towards the shark cat. His hands gave a thumbs up this time. "Correct! A name. It belongs to you, but it's used by others." He smiled lightly, fanged teeth bared. He didn't quite get smiling correct in this form, it was more like showing of teeth. "As for my name, we're getting there."

He looked at the maine coon now with expectant brown eyes, leaning forward. His hand still up, now pointed towards Buckingham, turned into a thumbs down. That stupid, ugly smile dropped into a frown and he deflated a little. "I'm sorry, that is not the correct answer." He made a rotating motion with his arms, as if he was showing himself off. "The answer is, an enigma!" Edward shuffled forward, considering giving them a handshake to introduce himself with... but figured he'd already embarrassed himself enough.

"I'm Edward Nygma, or, E. Nygma. Nygma also works, but that's mostly from my co-workers. " See what I did there? Get it?
