[ amaterasu is laying, head up, in a sand box. there's the sound of child glee and laughter in the back ground. a small boy - maybe three or four - is sitting against her side. they're practically attached.
she looks content and lazy. ]
Good afternoon. Good afternoon, especially, to those still settling in. Before you say, 'what's good about it?' If you're still breathing, consider it good. Every single -
[ a tiny pair of hands opens up her muzzle and sets a chicken nugget on her tongue. she takes a moment to munch it down and swallow. ]
These chicken nuggets are very tasty! He's a very sharing little thing. [ little licks on child's hands. he laughs, before flopping against her and wrapping arms around her neck. the weight makes her shift to her side. ]
As I was saying, whenever I read the news, I ache a little. As I'm sure most do. I'm reminded here, more frequently than anywhere, just how precious life is. If I were able to stop every horrible thing I saw, I would do it instantly, you realize. None the less, it's nearly just as bad to let things out of your control hold you down in a bad spot.
Things are heavy and bleak. Please, do not think I don't realize that. Simply, I want to say to try your best to keep your chin up through things. Maybe you haven't even thought of dropping it. If that's the case, I'm proud of you. Later if you think about it, remember that the small things add up.
[ her ears are getting tugged at. she's getting smooches on her nose and face and little white doggy brows. ]
Things will come around, eventually. In favor of life. 'A light shines brightest in the dark,' and all that.
One last thing. Newcomer Faith Center, I do hope that will last you for some time. [ yeah. amaterasu ransacked, searched, dug, got into things she probably shouldn't have and collected at least five hundred dollars in coins alone. hey, she's extremely persistent! anyhow. she left it there in a paper sack. enjoy counting that shit. ]
( oops, brief note: ;w; all replies will be video & written. and perhaps imagery, if i feel less lazy. )
