a tantrum in my room

She sobbed and ran, ran towards the islands to get away from everyone else. She wanted to go to black island but she didn’t trust herself so for a long while she just hid on Nephilim island. Everyone used it more of a bridge than anything else anyway and she was left undisturbed to cry away her sorrows. To lament everything she felt was wrong in her life and the absolute unfairness of it all. She was blind to her blessings, and dwelled on her jealousy.
The sea ate her tears, and as the tide was rising to her paws she caught movement from the corner of her eye. Ikigai’s pale coat reflected the setting sun and she walked as if she really was the goddess Toxicity thought. Kiyohime could have cried harder had she not shed all her tears. Part of her hated how perfect her sister was, despised having to look at everything she wasn’t day in and day out. Jealousy burned beneath the surface and Ike nearly spit like a frightened cat when the princess approached with her package.
Ike settled at Iki spoke, offered her condolences for her sadness and a gift to help make her feel better. Ike didn’t want to look at it, but very cautiously she reached out and revealed the gift. A beautiful, incredibly crafted headdress with her antlers as the centerpiece. All of the anger and disappointment in herself surfaced and the princess Shuriken grit her teeth and squeezed her eyes shut as the emotions overwhelmed her.
"Why, Iki?” She cried through clenched teeth, her heart about to burst from her chest as she gasped for breath and tried not to scream. "Why are you so perfect?” Ike questioned, the gift forgotten as she lost control of herself, she lost her virtues and herself. Just barely she restrained her taloned paws in hitting the box right into the ocean, but there was still a sliver of self that remained.
"Speech"
