The leaves had fallen so fast. A drizzle of rain was all it took for the trees to give up their color, and then soon enough snow would blanket the ground in a frozen wasteland. The thick smoke of her pipe swirled into the air, and her boots tenativley whispered on the cold pavement; free hand shoved deep in the pocket of her black wool military jacket. A quick visit to the "Alice in Wonderland" statue, and a stroll in the park always helped clear her mind. Silver eyes studied the bronze, her hand pulled the pipe away from her red lips. Contemplation.
Not long ago, a year maybe? No. Three? She had found a mini voodoo princess on the streets of the city. It seemed like mere hours had passed since they shared Thanksgiving together, with her uncle, father, and a legion of other tragedies. The corner of her lip curled to think the package would reach the child's apartment soon. Full of spooky candies, home made baked goods, and other halloween treasures. She turned her face to the west, as if hoping for a glimpse of the plane. The setting sun made her ghostly skin glow. They had left for California, no amount of resentment would change what she missed so dearly. A blondie, who cleaned up his act. And his girl; a beautiful young woman, with a tattoo of a fish. A few cards were sent out to them.
Her mind turned dust-covered pages to find a girl with curling blonde hair. White gloves, a carefree smile, and excellent taste in poetry. Ah, yes. The woman locked eyes with the larger-than-life bronze gaze of Alice seated atop a giant mushroom, and she smiled again, remembering the young woman's hunger for adventure. If she could only go back. Tea in beautiful gardens, the warmth of the sun on lace and silk, the shamelessness of giggling like children.
And finally, the immortal turned her attention to a captain with firey red hair, a taste for rum, and star-filled moonless nights.
I try to find my way in this endless forest
But recently it seems like I've been walking in circles with no clue of where to go next
I hear deer in the far distance
It sounds like it sad
Sad just like me..
Thought you needed me as much
With time I learned I was wrong all along..
I built up a perfect picture of you and me
Everything was so perfect
But I forgot the most important part
The truth..
You were not even close the image I had built in my head for so many years
It hurts my soul to say you were a stranger
And the fact was that I knew nothing about you
Every time you hit me to the ground with your hurtful words I closed my eyes
I didn't want to see
Didn't want to hear
That you put my heart through more pain than happiness
I couldn't look into those ocean blue eyes
I was afraid
Afraid to see the truth that was so clear
That in fact I didn't mean a thing to you
Not anymore I didn't
I was nothing more than a pathetic stalker..
And you just wanted me out of your life
But baby see
I've given up so you got what you wanted in the end
It's over
I am changing my main account. From now on, I'll be using this name. c: I'll eventually move all bios from there to here, and I'll also recreate the BZD update blog too. <3
This website is not letting me reply to your lovely posts! I cannot figure it out. It says I have to select a valid author or something? I can't figure it out.
Also, I was paling around with some fawns earlier. For some reason my screenshot button doesn't work so I can't post pictures, but I was wondering who they were.
One of them was regular, like me, and the other had a flower headdress. We got separated so I mostly stuck to the regular fawn, then I found the flower-headdress fawn but lost the other... and then vice versa again. I don't think the headdress fawn liked me. But then again, I'm apparently incapable of understanding these lovely gestures.
So then I stuck with the other fawn the rest of the time and he showed me where to change my pelt to red, then we went to the Abiogenesis and we turned ourselves white. We stopped at the graveyard and that's when they logged off, so I decided to as well.
I hope I can find you guys! I'll be able to recognize your pictographs when I see them, but it's very hard to search specifically on here like that.
Thank you very much! (And if you saw us fooling around- sorry about being such kids :3)

The fog broke like dawn, all of the sudden turning into daylight, leaving things a little changed in their place. I'd never seen the world go from night to day so slowly and so all-at-once like that: the forest's time is odd, but that moment left be breathless and clean.
After candles and lightning, graves (was my own grave, empty, among them? I get little chills), and bursts of poppies sending out bubbling opiates like fountains of light... It's strange that the departure of someone powerful and distant as a star, not the presence but the absence of something -- that such a thing is what leaves me breathless is astonishing in and of itself.
He came up to where Walter, Illrose, and I were sitting. I don't really understand how she could stand to be near him... Except, perhaps, that she's like me, and can't tear herself away. I'm not sure.
But one moment, I was thinking about ... other things... And the next, when my attention returned, there he was. I wondered if he had read my poem about him -- had he liked it? I bet he hated it. It really could have been better -- I had never even noticed that he breathes white smoke, or even thicker mist containing a thousand motes of light. How emberassing!
After he had gone, I sat for a little while with Rutilus on the edge of the fog, watching the light begin to change, and feeling like I was witnessing the heart of something stunning, in the soft half-grey, half-gold light. They should have sent a better poet. Well, I will consider the matter further.
...Still, I doubt he even knows I exist. All the same, it was impressive. And to watch the fog lift and light seep in like a sudden breaking of surfce tension -- even as I played among the giant mushrooms...
I'd really appreciate it if anyone could help cast the mini spell on this picto, please. I'm sitting in a mushroom circle with the dotd mask, doe nubs and zombie pelt. ShikaTale is already helping me, but if anyone else could I'd really be grateful.
