Hot girl summer

It was strange sometimes how the things in life that seemed difficult could be as easy as, well.. catfishing, while others - things they hadn't even expected, like losing their unborn children - proved so terribly difficult. Life was unpredictable like that though, he supposed. That was something he'd learned pretty early on in life but he'd never experienced anything quite so surprising. But he was trying not to think about their past, and instead focus on their future as best as he could. Currently his attention was on the fish that he'd accidentally caught. It was hard to resist the urge to flick it toward Twig, feeling a bit playful now. Instead he managed to wrangle the thing down and lean to bite down around it's neck, it's wriggling slowly and quickly coming to a halt.

This was the exact sort of thing he needed today. Something simple, to lighten his mood. It was almost laughable how easily it had happened, with only the slightest hint of effort on his part. After a moment of registering what had happened, he let out a loud laugh, a laugh that started slowly at first and then built up stronger in his belly. He wasn't even sure why he was laughing but the situation was so surreal that he couldn't help himself, laughing so hard he felt tears beginning to well up in his eyes. "I have no clue how I did that," he admitted, starting to catch his breath after his little bout of laughter. "But I guess we have a snack now. Not sure I could do that again if I tried."
