Celtis returns to the forest.

There are few in it now that he knows. So many new name-shapes. So few old friends. His pelt is bare, his face unmasked.

Please don't take offense to this old dusty deer. He may 'talk' in an old-fashioned way, and seem to stop and stare at all the new little groups of friends; he may brave tossing a few spells onto you, or do the opposite, turn tail and run.

He never was a very brave deer. Now he's shy and old.






((The last time I was in the forest had to have been at least a year ago, if not more. Probably more. Maybe two years? Funny how so much and so little has changed...I think I saw one person I remembered from Ye Olden Days...I look forward to meeting many more of you.))

I'm not sure how I did it. I don't know why it worked. The first glitch I've seen in our very own green forest that didn't make me irked.

Sliding. While laying down. And turning at my own free will. Again, don't ask how, I don't know, but it worked. I veered across the forest, reclined and at ease, circling the pond. I wish I'd seen someone to chase, in my relaxed state. I suppose they would have been surprised.

Sliding Slides I know the angle isn't great. I'm going to try to replicate what I did.

If you get more than 30, I strongly recommend some counseling
If you get more than 20, you’re paranoid.
If you get 10-20, you are normal.
If you get 10 or less, you’re fearless.
People who don’t have any are liars
