Hide a little. Hide away a little. Get some rest alone, a little. But she is only alone for a little. A little bit of time, Atropos is alone. She was by herself here, but it did not last. Even tiny, dangerous things need naps. Atropos needed a nap, but she would not rest for long. There were things to be done. There were sisters to see. A sister, she could see. A sister that seemed to melt out of the shadows, all bright and shining in the low light that filtered in from the window behind her. Swathed in sunlight and something else, something better. Something more comfortable for the strange creatures that they were. Atropos fixed her gaze on the woman, blinking slowly, sleepily. Delight. The shine in her eyes is unmistakable. Delight, and something that fans the flame that already exists deep in her chest. She's quite pleased. Her tail wags, thumping on the bed beside her, stirring up some of the dust that had settled here over time. Atropos cannot help herself, but to allow the feelings in her heart to be painted on her face. A rarity, but not an unwelcome one. Still, words fail her in this moment. Words were hard, after all. Feelings? Easy. Words? Not easy. "You found me!" The same whimsy as a child that's just been discovered during a round of hide and seek. Wasn't that what this was, after all? Just an extended game of hide and seek. Lurid won. She usually did, but it usually took some time. Just like this time. Yes, just like this time. Atropos was pleased. atropos feelin like a freak on a leash you wanna see the light |
