Putrid, the unloveable god

Putrid, the unloveable god

Allow us to introduce you to the one and only Putrid, our story’s resident not-so-handsome, “holy moly, did a truck hit him?” heartthrob. Seriously, the mirror contemplates breaking itself when he approaches. He is UGLY!

But hold onto your monocles, folks, because even Putrid’s very own mother, the glamorous Venus, needs to take a long sip of tea before looking at him.

And then, enter Cupid, the swoon-worthy son with a face that even unicorns are envious of. Venus has practically handed him all her affection on a golden platter, leaving Putrid to catch emotional frostbite while wrapped up in a blanket of “Why not me?” vibes.

 

You’d think this lopsided affection would send Putrid spiraling into a life of binge-watching rom-coms and talking to his pet cactus, but no siree! Putrid’s got spunk. He’s on a mission to prove that beneath that exterior that looks like it wrestled with a blender, there beats a heart of gold – probably slightly misplaced, but golden nonetheless.

 

Now, brace yourself for the main event: Will Putrid ever find a soulmate who can see past his quirks and celebrate the dazzling disco inferno that is his inner fabulousness? Even if Venus needs a GPS to locate her motherly instincts, Putrid’s spirit is unbreakable. He’s diving headfirst into the pool of optimism, believing that love will eventually hunt him down like a persistent puppy.

 

Will Putrid ever find a significant other who can see past his outward quirks and appreciate the true essence of his inner fabulousness? Well, even though Venus might need a crash course in parenting that includes seeing beyond skin-deep, Putrid’s optimism is unshakable. He’s all in, believing that love will find him.

Get ready to raise your eyebrows, your glasses, and your spirits – it’s puppetry with a twist that you won’t want to miss!
