you can count on me
The Kamui Delta had become much prettier since the last time she had visited. Flowers littered the area in shades of pink and yellow, bringing spectacular life to the delta. Even small butterflies fluttered about, along with smaller looking bugs and critters. Last time it had been cold, the air chilly, the stream frozen in several areas. There were no flowers, only dried emerald grass and wet dirt. Now...it was lovely. Arivae giggled quietly to herself, her legs carrying her through the beds of flowers. She often lowered her head to look closely at their tiny petals, and even the ladybugs that perched themselves there. But most of the time, her impossibly sapphire gaze was on the whole beautiful scenery, scanning everything, taking in the beauty. It was nearly as pretty as the Redbud Nook. She remembered...the pink flowers that covered the trees, all of them. And despite the heat, it was all still beautiful. And besides, she had been there with Tibertius...so after awhile, the heat had become nothing but a thought in the very back of her mind. Of course it was still pretty hot here, at the delta. But there was a gentle breeze that often streamed through, as well as everything distracting her. The young dame sighed quietly and made her way over to a smaller-looking bed of flowers, plopping herself down in the very middle. Just as she did, a whole bunch of grasshoppers flew up like confetti, fleeing from her presence. She laughed aloud and rolled over slowly. Even with the occasional reminder of her loneliness, and the lack of friends she had, she still thought being a loner was great. She was okay to do whatever she liked, as long as she didn't venture aimlessly upon the territory of another. The last time she did that...she was spared. But some may not be as nice as Odette was. |
