Thirteen years.
Oh to meet the woman I once was, and ask her questions.
Seems like a new wave of faces and names, and little left of the old days.

Thank you for the company and warmth, dear friend. I've always enjoyed your presence whenever you come around my Jettem. We should speak more often.

Heard little, smelled more of the crisp fall air on her lips and nose. A rare call went out, curious of those awake and about. *One came running, with pelt of brass and gold. A dance and a jig, and the two were off. Bounding, bounding. Great leaps and much laughter, a reason to bring about a true smile even if the face was not a familiar one. An ending dance, sweet goodbyes exchange.
Another time then, golden toes?

Off again, to find paths once walked and see what faces she might recognize. A smell, a massive rack in the distance. A color that would make bleeding berries envious. A trot here, a stand behind a sapling. Another step closer, footsteps giving enough sound so as to avoid startling the mass heavily **Crowned. A passing sniff, a respectful bow given. Unknown and known of, so snuggles might be a bit much. Resting at a short distance she leaned against a tree, wondering how many were left from the days she remembered and cherished. Just a short visit to not overstay her welcome, just enough to offer silent company to the pale bodied stag before venturing off once more.

Red Hill offers a view, eyes staring outward over the vacant scene. The mind echos of memories, ghosts dance in the place where friends and family once did.

Where have you gone?


*No character assigned to account, but the name was JodiePetal123.
Thank you for the dance.

Rushing water roused the sleepless mind, droplets tickling at the velvet inside of a nearby ear tip. Within moments legs took to standing to send the doe into the Idol for a quick rinse, waken the body as the mind was already turning like dusty clockwork. Still figure was nearby, not a stone's throw, motionless and dragging being his own little stream of crimson. Lack of fur or hair brings a moment of curiosity before bounding feet of oncoming Skulled figure sends the doe to hide within the belly of the Idol. Attempts of spying on the bounding figure and crimson tailed one are unsuccessful, as head is visible at the lower gut of the Idol. Future attempts to remain fully hidden taken to note.
Crimson Tail was not amused, wandered off after an episode of awkward staring from the doe who took to sniffing the vacant area of the male once he left. Skinned creatures, peltless, leave behind unique scents and so she investigates before venturing to a nearby patch of blueberries to ease the growling beast within her barrel. Lips are stained beneath the deadly bend and point of her mask.
Fear the Blue Lipped Doe, Destroyer of Berries, Queen of Purple Tongues.

"Peacock!"

Spent some time at her spot between Two Trees to collect her thoughts till she went for a drink at the Crying Idol. Noticed a group of deer sitting around a tree nearby but did not stop to bother them. Glanced in their direction on the way back to the spot before to rest a bit only to have her legs itch for a bit more walking. Stayed within the Hills near the Birch Tree Forest when she saw Reed, joined him swiftly and wandered around back to the Idol with him to find a Talla there to greet them. Her Heart began to strut in front of the two does, earning a smile and laugh from Jettem as the bull pranced about like a peacock.
Played around for a bit and did some dancing, chased after Reed and Talla toward Reed's Logs however she was still unsure to approach them. Instead approached Reed to stand beside him, leaning against his large frame for a time then dashing off again in chasing games.

Missed you...

Woke between her Two Trees and wandered briefly, seeing her Heart near his Logs with a few she didn't know very well. Took a seat nearby to give them some space. Watch after a few moments to see him and another move off.
Retreated back to her Towers to give her Heart some time with others and to lay down, pondering to herself silently. Fell asleep briefly before the need to drink rose sharply, heading to the Crying Idol once more and drinking before seeing an odd sight. Investigated the somewhat scuffled figure, a pig or boar of some kind wearing a skull mask. Sniffed it, finding Reed's scent on it, curious as to why before her Heart showed up and stood between herself and the boar creature. Realized the scuffle had not been friendly and backed off, seeing others nearby that made her wonder what had happened. Followed Him to greet the mystery deer from before he had been sitting with, giving a gentle greeting and bowing to the smaller figure to ease any tension, hopefully.
Was herded back to His logs where she stood for a time, seeing others had followed them and feeling watched for some reason. Sniffed the smaller deer a bit and stood by during the awkward moment before moving back to her Heart after having been apart from him for some time.
The ache in her chest has diminished significantly.
Relaxed for a good while with her Heart, resting off and on near him and using him as her pillow at time before waking up a bit more and whispering soft words to him as he rested/slept next to her. Eventually felt the need to sleep again, nuzzling him goodnight and curling up for the night against him.

...

Woke in the middle of her trees and was promptly visited by a deer wearing the magpie pelt and no mask that she had seen before, cautious till it began rearing and pawing at the ground around and behind her. Moved off to watch, curious of the deer's actions before heading off to the Crying Idol for a drink, very parched for some reason and feeling a dip would be refreshing in the summer heat. Saw a familiar sight and exchanged nuzzles with the smaller doe.

What ever happened to just asking instead of assuming the worst?

Watched the Demon Killer near the Idol, careful as she took her time in getting closer as he slept near his companion. Ran off when he woke, still fearful of tines being lowered to her as previous events had ended in despite her constant wish to try and mend what had somehow been broken. Retreated towards the God's Hill near the Pond, took refuge in the outskirts of the Birch Tree Forest for a time. Still the feeling nagged, returning eventually at a later time to still watch and hope someday she'd find the answer on if it even was mend-able. Ran off again when he not only stood but ran towards her, long legs taking flight instead of standing her ground. The fear is still too strong, knowing one day the crown of unforgiving tines might be the end of her. Best to keep a safe distance even when he was asleep.

Retreated once more to the Birch, rested shaking legs and saw the scared grey stag she once was the eyes for in the distance. Made no movement to visit him, weary still of his words from before and wondering if they would ever cease to echo in her mind. Resting for a bit she wandered later, seemingly lost yet not, eyes searching and feeling her chest ache for what was missing. Wandered for some time before resting again.

The familiar scent came near again, the scarlet ibis following after it to settle near the older stag, looking over the scarring on the side and empty socket. Stayed there for a while, watching and guarding from a distance till Reez appeared. Greeted the little doe and danced a bit with her, feeling worries slip away to be replaced with more happy thoughts, indulging herself in a bit of fun. A comforting weight returned to her, chest no longer aching. Instantly searched for her Heart, leading Reez along till they came to his Logs. Both does crowded Reed and sandwiched him multiple times. Eventually jumped and danced about, each chasing after the other and bringing a smile to her face.

"....?"

Walked aimlessly and with no destination, finding a little Riptail nearby alone. Took quiet caution in approaching, sniffed before standing over as the little stag slept. Ran immediately once Cutlass appeared, giving much distance, knowing how protective the larger stag was of his frail Riptail. Wandered for a long while, feeling lost and out of place with the many unknown faces and unfamiliar scents all over the place. Became afraid for a time, hiding inside the Oak for a time. Was not able to rest due to growing worry, leaving the singing oak and turning towards the pond where she saw a familiar sight.
Took her time going around, approaching Bright Eyes wearily, wondering why such a large creature would be so low in the pond. Thought him to be sick, stood nearby simply watching. Followed the large bird stag to the Crying Idol and attempted to close the distance slowly, finally getting a few sniffs in and wondering what ailed him. Didn't have time to hear the answer, hearing Jack approach from behind and running away to the Red Hill, saw a sleeping Isiel but did not approach.
Illrose came up soon after, Jettem grateful and instantly curling up against the dragon doe with a heavy sigh. Trying to disappear inside the other, not sure why she feels lost recently and worried something is wrong.
Missing her Heart.

"Hmm, must do something about this pelt of yours. I can see bones Illrose... I don't ever want to see bones showing through on such a beautiful doe."

Woke from her rest, wandered till she found herself in the Birch and smelled Ephire nearby. Approached at a distance when she saw others near him she did not recognize. Thought better to let the Raven Stag have his time for others who had missed him while away. Wandered to the Playground where the cardinal doe spotted the silver blue doe Isiel and the rather scary looking stag creature, Ramsus she believed if she remembered correctly. Apparently was much softer in personality than his looks portrayed. Wary though of the two despite the growing urge to associate herself to the doe, knows Ramsus is very protective of Isiel. Walked towards the Idol for a drink till she saw an odd sight, Illrose huddled close to a tree and looking very poor. Underweight, pelt losing its shine and the light in her eyes was diminishing.

Immediately went to Illrose, greeting her warmly and insisting she follow her. Took the silver doe to the blueberries past the Idol, made sure she actually ate and enjoyed a small snack herself. Washed down the sweetness and stained lips with some water and a good body rinse from the Idol's tears, leading Illrose off again to a sunny patch to begin the grooming process and tend to her dear friend as best she could, letting the starved and worry worn doe rest a bit.

"Mmm, good to see your face again Ephire. I have missed you. I trust your journey went well?"

Heard news of the Raven Stag's return, sought him out near the Birch Tree Forest and sat with him a while. Enjoyed having the bull in the Forest again, questions forming though keeping her peace and letting him enjoy being home once more in silence. Later followed him to where Herla and Gehirn sat. Gave bows and hellos to both, snuffing lightly in the royal crown of the smaller doe before giving Herla's forehead a small kiss. Sat at a distance with Ephire, intending to at least sit with him as long as she could. Later moved with the little well known band to sit together for a while, happy to be in their company and rest among friends. Had a treat when Lem stopped by with lit antlers and gave a few nuzzles at how spectacular he looked. Intended to follow after him when he left after a short greeting but found he didn't wait so she returned to the trio for more afternoon snoozings.

Woke to hear Ephire was leaving, said her goodbye and thanked him for sharing some time with her. Grateful to have him back among those who love him. Sat with the couple for a bit longer before catching a familiar scent, saying her goodbyes and following her nose to the beautiful Illrose. Seeing the doe had her smiling, joining her and her companion for some more sitting.

Currently lounging over the large doe, intending to snuggle fully with her and disappear within her brilliant silver white coat.

"When I'm with you.."

Wandered for a bit, ran into a few new deer she did not recognize and paused to see a white stag with large red antlers and red hair, human faced and resting across the river near the Crying Idol. Wandered into the Birch Forest between the rock piles and blueberry bushes before sitting near a tree and resting, smelling Lem nearby. Approached at the side till the stag moved off a way, went back to her tree to rest before waking up again and feeling the need to return to Reed's Logs for some time. Rubbed herself against the logs, trying to get rid of the scents of other deer that had come by. Reminded herself that the stag was back, that she didn't need to defend the spot anymore.
Heard Reed come by moments later after sitting down, getting up and surprised to see him looking a little different than usual though it hardly kept her from going to him and following him around as they moved from place to place in the Forest to rest. Happy to have her Heart back.

Johan! So big now! What has Herla been feeding you?

Came to visit Herla and Johan for a bit, watched over the two for a while before tending to the healer's feathered crown and grooming her lightly. Found Johan to be a bit of a surprise when he stood up, such long legs! He was only just a wobbly fawn the other day, hiding between her legs. Now he was hardly worth standing over as he stood by her, though the red doe didn't mind doing it still. Played around a bit, tried to play a game of hide and seek with him but didn't think he understood her actions exactly. Saw a boldly colored black and white doe with bright feathers (Aurora) approach, handed off babysitting to the doe since Johan reacted with a positive note to her presence. Said her goodbyes at the familiar scent of a dear friend, turning quickly into the Birch to find Lem. Sat with for some time, feeling the day was starting off nicely.

Illrose.
She's so beautiful. For such a large creature she manages grace as if they two were sisters held close together in the womb. I admit, I fear her. Not because of terror, but of the amount of need I would begin to feel for her, to be close to her, to hear her stories and listen to her experiences in life. In the life before I've heard about her form others. Whispers of how she once had wings, such great wings that made the clouds look like dandelion flowers beneath the shadow of a fawn.
It was good to see her again, as hesitant as I was in the beginning. But then seeing others I did not know I took to resting against her. She is so warm, I wonder if the fawns come to lay by her during the cold winter nights. I took to resting my head against her side. Her heartbeat is strong, it reminds me of what the Great Oak would sound like if it had a heart. It was brief but very much needed, the chance meeting tonight when I saw her. I look forward to laying near her one night to feel the warmth of her heart.

Between chasing Reed and being chased through the forest I found a fallen log to be my sudden grandest discovery. In show I reared, I ran and jumped. Such a small log for such a high show of performance, after a few times of doing so and possibly confusing Reed I had to laugh before standing near him.

A flash of purest blue caught my eye. Not any blue, not the sky blue or the jay bird blue. Not even the midnight sky blue with all it's stars. It was a deep blue like water. Water I've never seen before. So startling and bright, I couldn't help but stare at the Blue Stag in the nearby distance. Such a coat, and feathers at the ends of each hoof. Feathers on legs amuse me, I wonder if it were possible to find a way to get some of my own. But he was such a lovely color, and I was so blunt in my staring I must have took offense in my admiration of such a sought after pelt. I adore the color so opposite to my own. Blues of every shade catch my attention, I felt horrible when both the stag and Reed taunted to one another at something that was my doing. It seems not all admiration is wanted, and not all enjoy having such attention. I hope things get better, but for now, sleep calls. And having such a vibrant red stag to lay against sounds too good to pass up.

Please listen as you read

I never felt so still before. Have you ever sat there, by yourself or with another and felt it? The quiet peace? The sound of snow falling past your ears? The rain that falls down the blades of grass? The dreams of a fawn tucked against the warm belly of its mother? How do you capture that noise, that sound, the feeling. Is there a safe place to keep it till it is needed?

I've found it. I've found it in many hearts of those I love. I've seen it dance in their eyes, in the notes as they've laughed and cried. To where I don't need to search far to find that feeling. I desire it, need it. Can you become addicted to silence and stillness? Can one's fur be soft enough to hold it there and cradle it while I sleep, or will it slip by to another in need of the calm stillness.

I want to create it. That magical moment when hearts beat as one. When a fawn takes its first breath. The feeling of water running over stones. The music of the wind that makes the bluebells dance and the poppies jingle beneath the fireflies. There is nothing quite like it.

Yet when I see you sitting or standing there...when the world falls away and I can't help but feel like a rabbit in the jaws of a wolf with you. You are all that's left in the end. You are the stillness. That ever so soundless and perfect creation. And all I can do is year to become like you. To be known like you. To be craved like you. Adored. Hated. Coveted. Needed. To be loved...





You don't realize yet do you..
