I headed for the playground early, excited for the festivities to begin. There, I met a large group of (evidently) like-minded deer. We danced for a bit, then curled up on one of the rocks, in a circle. We looked quite lovely, with our candled antlers lighting the night.



Then. All of the sudden, I saw him! Oh, how my heart leapt at the sight. The phantom was laying quite a distance away, watching us. I said adieu to the candled deer, hopped down off the rock, and trotted over to where the ever-watchful stag was laying. I gave him a nuzzle, and he got up. At first, I expected him to run -- but he didn't, at first. No, he hung around, watching me curiously. Then he turned, staring me right in the face. I looked up at his curious skull, into his empty eyes, and smiled. He got closer, lingering there, with his muzzle near mine. He made a tiny movement, but shook it off before I could see what he was trying to do. Then he walked slowly past me, so close that our ribcages rubbed together, and I almost expected to hear the sort of sound you'd hear when someone runs their finger down a xylophone. When the yellow aura subsided, he looked back at me, and trotted off.

No sign of my dear ever-watchful, for the past two days. I have to admit, that makes me a little sad. It's nice to have him around, you know. Maybe I'll think of a name to call him; a name that only I know. Since he seems adamant about keeping his name a secret from me, and since I hardly get the chance to speak to him, I suppose it wouldn't hurt much.

Maybe I'll call him 'the phantom'. It is a rather suiting title, wouldn't you agree? That is, given his peculiar habit of appearing and disappearing so suddenly...

Today is a very special day. Tomorrow will be the beginning of a new era. This day only comes once every twelve years, so it is important that we deer make the most of it.

Yesterday I had a lot of fun hanging out with my friend, Seed. He is such a great guy! I really am lucky to have him as a friend. Most of our play was in the pond; we went skinny dipping -- teehee! Well, it's easy for me to go without a set, because I'm a fawn. But I plopped into the water and shed my flowers, anyway.



The other thing I did yesterday, was go for my very first fly through the forest! Yep, I finally did it! I found the perfect launch pad in the middle of a mushroom circle near the pond. I took off, and landed in one of the big willow trees. I danced there for a while, feeling pretty proud of myself.

To those of you who tried to say hi, but were met with a non-responsive Lemon, I'm sorryyyy. D:

Something's up with my connection, and everything in tef is failing. I keep seeing nameless fawns everywhere, and none of my hotkeys work half the time. On top of that, my arrow keys don't work half the time, either. And my framerate is still around 4 fps.

Is anyone else having this problem/know what to do?

Everything was running PERFECT, just a few days ago. :'(

My framerate is also around 4 fps (with spazmoments of around 11 fps xD), today. So um yeah. xD I kind of have trouble keeping up with running deer. <3

It's kind of funny, because everything will be all choppy for a while, and then my computer will catch up and the deer will move in super-fast-forward for a second. xDDD

Sorry! DD:

He nuzzled me.

It took a while for me to get close enough, but eventually, I did. I just gathered up all of my courage, and walked right up to him. I gently reached out and gave him a little nuzzle, trying to tell him that it was alright. And then, he nuzzled me back. Of course, he only did it for a split second, and then he was galloping off again, leaving me all alone in his trail of dust.

But I didn't mind. I was too stunned to care; and for quite a while, I just stood there, mesmerized by what I'd just experienced. Then I laid down, letting my mind wander.

The sound of little hooves roused me from my half-slumber, and I realized that there was a little fawn dancing around in front of me. I shrunk back a little, startled at the fawn's sudden appearance. And all of the sudden, the stag was there. He came galloping up, rearing and bucking, and placed himself right in between the other fawn and myself. He lowered his antlers at the fawn, scratching the ground and rearing in anger. I watched in awe, slightly worried that he would harm the little fawn. At the same time, I couldn't help but wonder... why was he protecting me?

After my little rendezvous with the mysterious dotd stag, I met up with Darcy. Remember, he's the one I fell asleep next to, the day it rained. I was so glad to see such a friendly face! We were joined by another fawn, and we headed off for the playground. Oh, we had so much fun, together!



After a while, two more deer approached us -- one was a beautiful peacock deer, and the other one was a fawn. We had a little dancing party on top of the rocks, before laying down to relax and enjoy the peacefullness of the forest. It was good to rest for a while, since the running, dancing, and climbing we had done earlier was beginning to take its toll on my fragile little fawn-body.



I mean, I do like to play. I'm a cheerful girl. But I'm a lot more laid back and calm, then most fawns are. Sometimes it's nice to just sit back and enjoy the peaceful ways of the forest.

After a while, we fawns began to grow a little restless. We began running around, practicing our leaps and bounds -- and then, of all things, Darcy went and laid down inside a rock, with his head poking out. As soon as I saw him, I began to burst with laughter. The peacock deer and I joined him, and eventually so did one of the other fawns.



Anyway, I began to feel pretty tired, after that. I said my sorrowful goodbyes, and went to sleep.

Today, I ran across the most peculiar fellow. He was a handsome deer, though I couldn't tell if it was a stag or a doe. For the sake of simplicity, I'll just refer to him as a 'he'.

Well, this stag was dressed in a Day of the Dead pelt, with a skull mask and peacock feathers. He would always lay about twenty feet away from wherever there was a big group of deer. I noticed him laying there, alone, while I was romping around with some new friends. I thought maybe he was just shy. So I went over to try and engage him; but he ran away! I followed him for a bit, trying to get him to open up. After a while, though, I started to think that maybe he just wanted to be left alone.



I went and laid near a fallen log, and was surprised by the arrival of a friend of mine -- a mini doe with a beaker-like pictogram. I remember meeting her a while ago, and I was glad to have her company. She laid next to me (though not before giving me a rather silly looking mask), and we chatted a bit. Mostly about the odd weather.



Anyway, after a while, we got up and moved to a nearby mushroom circle, to continue our idle conversation. I fell asleep after a while. When I awoke, I was startled to notice that the strange stag was laying several feet away, watching us! He was laying next to a tree, all alone. I got up and went over to him, and laid down next to him. I didn't say anything, because I didn't want to spook him. He was content to lay there, for a while. It was only when the mini-doe approached with some other deer, that he got up and galloped off into the forest.

LT: It's a long one, folks!

Fitting song for the rain. <3

First off, I apologize for the fact that this entry isn't going to be as upbeat and charming as I would like. Those who know me (which probably is only one or two deer, at best), know that I have two very different sides to my personality. The first part is a child-like, cheerful persona -- the fawn you see jumping over sleeping deer, skipping through the forest, and moonwalking backwards with my best friend, Seed. The other half of me is a dark and depressed soul; a very mature fawn with a dismal outlook on life. Unfortunately, it seems that the rain has brought out the latter half of my persona.

I saw Seth, again! Or, I think it was Seth. He's changed his set, so I can't be sure. The day we spent with Calanthe was such a great day. I always think of that day, and smile. But ever since then, I've been far too shy to approach either of them, again. I doubt they even remember me. But that's okay. The memory of our adventure is good enough, for me.

Anyway, Seth was clowning around with some other grown deer. At first, I was hesitant to join them. The rain has got me feeling rather lonely and shy, you see. But after watching their antics for a while, I did decide to join in their frolicking.



After that, I ran off and met a fawn with blue flowers on his head. I have to tell you, I was absolutely mad about him, for an hour or so! We raced through the forest, kicking up our heels in glee. Oh, it feels so glorious to run!

[sub]Well, I feel much better since my last journal entry. I even made some new friends! And I discovered something rather disturbing.

You see, all this time, I thought I was a boy. Turns out, I'm a girl! Would you believe it? Well, I mean, there's no real way to tell whether your a stag or a doe until your birthday, when you're all grown up. But since the magic has been sticking to fawns, we little ones have been getting more acquainted with our future adult selves.

All this time, I thought that I was a boy. But after trying on so many different sets, I just came to the realization that I'm not a stag at all. This is quite a relief, since I have the biggest crush on an older stag... But I can't say anything about that. I mean, I know this is a journal, and all.. but I would positively die if he found out!

Anyway, I can't remember much about what's happened over the past couple of days, I've just been so busy! Let's see what I do remember.

Well, the first thing I did, after waking, was join a line-dance! Dancing always makes me happy. This time, it was a midget dance. Everybody participating was tiny! Well, actually, there were one or two full-size stags there. But that only made it better! Oh, I had a blast. It feels so good to dance.



I met some new fawns! I know, most of the deer running around as fawns aren't really fawns. With the magic sticking, it seems like everyone wants to be a fawn! But I'm certainly not complaining. I like fawns.
