chef catnap (WG comm)

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.... That was most of catnaps livelong day for a long time. a day of nothing but sleep, only to awake for the sole purpose of putting his friends to sleep at the end of another critter-ific day. The resentment and the fact that he barely knew his own acquaintances drove him to try to trap them in their dreams. But now that they were out, and Catnap was forgiven and invited to their daily get-togethers, another problem had arisen, since he was no longer allowed to use the red smoke that made up who he was, he needed a new path, a new gimmick, a new... way of going about things. especially since he couldn't go on napping most of the day as he had, but what path to take? "... it's just i feel so lost now..." the fatigued kitty confided to picky piggy, elbows slumped on her kitchen table as he struggled to keep his head above, let alone to stay awake "...dreams were what i lived for, and now i haven't the foggiest idea what im going to do now" "awwww, poor little guy"

I STAND WHERE THE GODS ONCE SAT

I STAND WHERE THE GODS ONCE SAT by p.b. wells I was not born beneath a star. I was born beneath a scream. The scream of a mother who tore me from her body like an omen carved in flesh, and the gods watched, silent, indifferent, already bored with their new pet bleeding into the dirt. They say we were made in their image. If that’s true, then the gods be as ugly as we are, spiteful, angry things crawling in the dark, spilling blood to feel something. They made us for their theater, stacked grief like mortar between empires, lit wars like candles, watched cities burn like incense before their thrones. We called it fate. They called it fun. I’ve seen the temples, marble and gold, the bones of the faithful ground into the foundations. Their statues stare down eyes carved to ignore, mouths that never speak, but I hear them. I hear them laughing every time a child dies for a cause the gods no longer remember inventing. You want worship? You want songs?

CV | Bramble #137 | The Release

The holding pens were absolute chaos. A trio of wide eyed bachelors charged rampantly through the chutes connecting the makeshift pens, shying away from Bramble’s pinned ears as they ran past his pen. The wild bay bachelor balked, sending his two leopard friends skidding through the dusty footing and causing their brightly colored sabino friend to stumble. Alecto barked out an order at them to keep moving. Alecto and Bramble had been fortunate enough to warrant a private pen, allowing Bramble to heal without too much interference. Most of the wild eyed mustangs roaming through the larger, and more crowded, holding pens had no such luck. Every so often the humans culled some of them and allowed them to go free. Just yesterday a respectable band stallion, Medieval, and his herd had been allowed to go. Alecto hoped he and Bramble would be next. From their vantage point in the small pen they could see that the wildfires were slowly starting to die out, the valley coated in cool white

CV | Sreten #137-2 | Winter Wonderland Pt.1

One of the last snowstorms of the season rolled through the valley, leaving a sparkling sheet of white in its wake. Hoofprints poked through the pearlescent white landscape in places, revealing bare earth, where the herds of the valley had trodden by. Sreten’s herd had sheltered from the elements in a snowy cave. It was a shallow cave with a low hanging roof, but they all managed to huddle in together to ride out the storm. Despite their close proximity tensions within the herd might have actually been at an all time low. Gemini and Sreten had somehow managed to come to a begrudging truce. And the twins, who had notably been distant as of late, had seemed to be thick as thieves once more. And some good had come of their unexpected cave dwelling stay- Hera and Viola had announced their pregnancies and Dante’s golden mate Sundance had given birth to a darling little filly they called Indigo. Sreten had been overjoyed to find that his longtime love and spotted lover were expecting

CV | Sreten #137-2 | Familiar Face

The weather in Cottonwood Valley had been strange as of late. One moment it would be sunshine and rainbows only for the next to be torrential downpours. The influx of strange weather had brought on a series of floods, causing the once grassy meadows to become a swampy mess. Many of the herds within the valley chose to travel to higher elevations up the mountains in search of drier ground. But not Sreten’s herd, no Sreten’s herd was remarkably undeterred by the soggy grazing grounds. Shelly reasoned that wet grass was just as good for you as dry grass and, well, nobody ever really argued with Shelly. Thus the herd stuck around, mowing down the damp turf around them. The greenery made for a stunning scene as Thistle and Pepper’s brilliant chestnut coats made a stark contrast with the emerald fields. Banshee too looked exceptionally beautiful, the golden morning light bouncing gently off her red dun hide. Sreten certainly had a lot to be thankful for, and looking around at his herd he

[CV] Howl (85) - Brace for a Storm

“You call this a storm?” shouted Santiana, a wild light in her eyes matching the flashes of lightning. “Yes, I do!” Howl roared back, struggling to make himself heard over the monsoon. The Lead Stallion’s ears were pinned against his head, his blue eyes narrowed to tiny slits, as he unsteadily put one hoof in front of the other, being as careful as he could, leading the herd down the rocky slope. A nasty squall had taken them entirely be surprise, far away from any real shelter. Ordinarily, Howl would have the herd hunker down and wait out the worst of the rain and wind, but Shiver was heavily pregnant and had begun shakingly violently from the lashing wet and cold. Unwillingly to separate the herd in such dangerous weather meant he was taking them all to a dank overhang of rock in the shadow of the mountains. Even Fleetwood seemed to struggle, usually the most sure-footed of the mares, as she skidded and slipped her way down the treacherous embankment. Sorin stayed by her side

[CV] Howl (85) - Fires

Howl snorted loudly, pushing the soot under his muzzle up in a gust of cloying black. He pulled his head up quickly, nose wrinkled in disgust. Tail twitching, he continued cautiously through the ruined forest. The trees were black and burnt, their bark cracked and slowly oozing out sap. Puffs of ash danced up under each of Howl’s hoof falls, settling back down once he was gone. The herd had seen the blaze from far off the night before. Orange and red flames licking up at the starry sky, the somber roar reaching their ears and keeping the foals awake. The older fillies, Ata, Andromeda, Thalia, and Ahoy had tried to put on brave faces for the younger foals. Ata had tried to tell them that she’d fight the fire herself if it tried to catch them. Salem had been stoic, large eyes reflecting the searing colors off in the distance. Tiya and Pepper stayed close to their mothers, shaking and whimpering occasionally, needing comfort. Thankfully the fire had never made its way toward them and

[CV] Perseus (#85-2) - Just Stopping By

The birds were singing in shrill voices while the sun peaked out behind sparse clouds. Perseus closed his eyes and inhaled deeply. It seemed that the frigid grip of winter was finally loosening the hold it had over the valley. Eurydice came up beside him and hummed happily. “I can’t wait for the new grass to hurry up and grow.” she whispered conspiratorially. Percy laughed. “I’m sure you’re not the only one who feels that way.” “If that was a comment about my weight, I’d appreciate you being quieter about it.” Firefly shouted, feigning anger. Louisa snorted next to her, the already larger-than-average mare looking ever…larger than usual. “We look geat, stop fussing.” she chided. Eurydice’s nose wrinkled in a silent laugh and Percy smiled lovingly at her. Further into the clearing, Miri and Eros danced around one another in some sort of game, the foals laughing as they chattered nonstop. Suddenly, a shadow raced across the grass and Percy looked up to see Iralee, the Bearded

THE FOREST OF WILLOWBANK LIGHT RAILWAY

PART 4: MIDWINTER'S EVE The 22nd of December, which is really what is called the winter solstice...the time when the sun begins to think about its backward swing towards spring and summer, and all the green joys in store...was a very important date in the Animals' calendar; it was really their Christmas Eve, the great present-giving and feasting time which brightened the long dreary days of cold and frost and (sometimes) hunger...but whatever the weather, you may be sure that the Animals of the Forest of Willowbank made sure it was a jolly time with presents for everybody and plenty to eat too. Just like ourselves, the Animals preferred plenty of snow and frost to make the time as merry as possible...sledging and sliding were great sports, and snowballing and so on were very much enjoyed; they even made snow-Animals, just as we make snowmen. Funnily enough, they even had a Father Christmas just as we do, but a different sort of

THE FOREST OF WILLOWBANK LIGHT RAILWAY

PART 1: HOW IT ALL BEGAN... The Forest of Willowbank, where the animals in this story live, was huge...it would have taken you three days and a bit to walk from one side of it the other; because it was so large and wild and woody, people very rarely went into it and even when they did, they never ventured far for fear of getting lost. This was all to the good...nobody knew the Animals were there, and so they were left alone; if, as sometimes happened, a hunter tracked a deer or a boar into the outskirts of the forest, the Animals took good care that he was very soon out of it again! Down the woodland tracks they dug deep pits and covered them with branches, and so people fell into them and sprained their ankles, or at best, bruised themselves very badly; sometimes, the Animals lured the hunter's footsteps into deep miry places where they found it hard to get out...no wonder humans avoided the forest! Other inhabitants were wild

PART 10: THE PLANK Now that Ratilla had gained complete mastery and had all the Animals in his power, the bother of feeding so many prisoners...Animals male and female, both young and old...became a tedious and intolerable bore; for one thing Rats are lazy creatures, disliking any kind of hard work. They did not even bother to run the Willowbank Belle into her shed at night, but left her out in the rain, wind and snow, anywhere on the line where they happened to stop; you can just imagine her filthy condition! Moreover, they never greased the points, nor manned the stations or signal-boxes; the whole railway presented a most disgraceful and dilapidated appearance, enough to make the good Animals weep! The dungeons of Castle Ratilla were hardly big enough to house all the captives; indeed, most of the female Animals and their children were imprisoned in an adjoining cave. But the task of feeding them all entailed a lot of what the

Description

I'm very tired. Not being able to take my medication is sending me through the ringer. With a mood stabilizer, I still feel things, but my mind isn't able to amplify them as much as it does without them. Without them, little things like picking a time to meet a friend or having someone cancel on me become so overwhelming that I break down and panic for hours. I just need a break. Monday can't come fast enough.

Well, at least I'm finally making progress with drawing humans.

Julian belongs to me.
