#My KITTER IS BEST KITTER FIGHT ME

[hashire]

One of my mom’s kitters stopped eating on Wednesday. She was puking, too, and it was mostly liquid. Our regular vet couldn’t fit her in on Thursday, so she took her to an emergency clinic. There was nothing obviously wrong when they examined her, and my mom declined an xray. Some anti-nausea and subq fluids later, she was ready to go home. But my mom was stuck at work. She asked me to pick up the kitter, so I walked over to her place. It’s a 3 mile walk, but I didn’t want to bus (and it would have taken about the same amount of time.

I brought kitter home and offered her food, which she was not interested in. Friday wasn’t any better, so my mom took her to our regular vet today. They did a bunch of tests and determined that she ate something toxic. What, we don’t know. No blockage, one of her liver enzymes was elevated. The Best Star, who died in 2018, had liver issues, so we know how important it is to get those under control. They gave her the anti-nausea and subq fluids as well.

My mom tried a bunch of different things to try to get her kitter to eat. Nothing worked. I suggested trying the method I used to get my little kitty to eat after the raccoon attack:  push some food into her mouth. My mom put it on her nose, which didn’t do anything. I was going to go to her house anyway, so I got dressed and ran over to try. Didn’t work, but she didn’t spit the food out. She did, however, express interest in eating later. It’s just that she didn’t seem to want anything that we offered her. She’d sniff it and not be interested.

My mom picked up a syringe since the vet said to feed her that way if she didn’t start eating on her own. I did the trial run, since I guess I’m more confident than my mom at this stuff. Kitter took it so well. She’s smart. She knows we’re doing this to help her, so she didn’t struggle or fight it. She took what we gave her. The food was mixed with water to get it in the syringe, but I thought we should try some water, too. She took that, too. 

Kitter’s gonna get better. That much was clear when she came into the kitchen when I was dishing up more food to give to her. My mom has been really upset about it since she hasn’t had a pet survive after they started getting sick. She feels better about things after the progress made this afternoon.

A Sunny Day on the Ziggurat

An essay by Elize Pentra, as provided by @joaheijndermans Art by Luke Spooner

Day 5 – Gyunsoth – Olli/Ka/1678

Hey. It's me. I'm writing to you in this journal I found on the ship. I missed talking to you, so I figured this was the next best thing. Not much point to it, since we'll be talking again as soon as you come out of the chamber. But I just wanted to say some things to you. You know, to fight off the loneliness. Talking to myself got to be so tedious after a while. Maybe I'll even let you read this, once you come out.

Well, first things first: the weather. It's beautiful out here. It feels amazing to wake up to that crisp fresh air smell every morning, with the light dew tickling your skin. You didn't get to experience it after we crashed, but I'm certain you would really love it. The view is brilliant too. Each time I see it, it just takes my breath away. There's not a day where the sun rises in the same color. You'd probably tell me it's all because of light passing through water particles or something crazy sciency, but I'd like to think the sun changes color each morning as to surprise me. Isn't that a cool idea? Something that just wants to be beautiful and make each day special just for you?

If I'm rambling, I'm sorry. But you'd be rambling too after four days by yourself with no-one to talk to but the Kitters and the Lobsters clinging to the side of the Ziggurat. At least the Kitters respond with a high-pitched yelp when I yell at them. I'm not feeding them like you asked, but that doesn't stop them from following me everywhere I go.

So yeah, anyway, that's why I'm starting this on the 5th day, so as to avoid any confusion about missing entries or anything. So, In summary, first entry; day five. Jeez, it's only been five days since you went in, and I'm already losing my marbles from not talking to you. I'm not sure you'll even be reading this at all once you come out, as we might be too busy with other stuff instead. Guess it doesn't matter. It's just so I'll have something to do other than to twiddle my thumbs and pace around the place.

That's all I got for now. Just spend the day watching the sun rise and set, cleaning the gun, checking the cores, and getting rid of the Lobsters every now and then. I'll write more when something happens.

Sleep tight.

-Elize

Day 6 – Gyunsoth – Olli/Ka/1678

So, today was quiet. Again. Although I thought I spotted something in the morning, flying past the sun (it was blue mixed with tangerine orange this time, in case you were wondering). It wasn't a ship, that's for sure. I would've known if it was. Whatever this thing was, it was quiet and slow and didn't leave a trail of dark smoke behind it. I'll try and get a better diagnostic on it, should I see it again.

Anyhow, like I said, nothing going on today. Cleaned the gun, checked the cores, and got rid of a few more Lobsters. They're persistent little creeps, aren't they? I hope I have more exciting stuff to write about tomorrow.

Sleep tight.

-Elize

Day 7 – Gyunsoth – Olli/Ka/1678

Same old story. The sun was a mix of lavender and violet, with some red speckles here and there. Other than that, cleaned the gun, checked the cores, and got rid of the Lobsters. There were a few more.

Kitters today, but they didn't bother me all that much.

I miss hearing your singing. When you come out, I've got to make you sing for me again. I like that once song you always did for me. The one you said was an Earth song? I don't remember what it was called, but it has the line about the swimming dolphins and the kiss by the wall. I still don't believe you about it being an Earth song. Back at home, we never sang. We just hunted and plowed what was left of the land. So not buying that one, Mr. Smartypants the quote machine, even if the song was written in Lang-one words.

Anyway, that's all for now. No signs of anything on the horizon, so all is good here.

Sleep tight.

-Elize

Day 8 – Gyunsoth – Olli/Ka/1678

There was a scream from the jungle. I'm sure of it. And it wasn't any Kitter scream or a Lobster boiling (yes, you already told me that was just steam coming from their shells, so shush you), so I know there's something out there.

* WELCUM, FRIENDS!

prepare yourselves for a bomb ass introduction post. cool, cool, cool.

the name’s jayden. i’m a cancer sun, virgo moon. twenty-one summers old & i enjoy long spontaneous walks in the woods that wind up with me getting lost and having to phone a friend. i’m lactose intolerant and a pescatarian because fishes don’t have feelings. my pronouns are they/he because i wish to become cam gigandet one day. and that’s it on the mun portion. 

MEET ARCHIE ! 

archie enjoys long walks in the confines of the safe zone! he’s almost as cool as his mun, but not quite. 

he’s thirty-four, which means he’s ANCIENT. he was [ counts on fingers ] fourteen when the world ended. most likely rubbing one out in his bedroom to scarlett johansson at the time. sad. 

he’s a soldier boy but he’s hella soft and just wants everyone to be friends. mostly he just wants everyone to follow the rules! lawful good in the house. 

he’s a capricorn for no other reason than i saw a cap pin on pinterest and proceeded to add it to his board. 

he collects literature because he’s a huge ass nerd who misses the way the world was. he’s the only one i’m sure. 

there’s a pupper outside the safe zone that he constantly tries to win over. one day he’ll smuggle it inside. lawful who? he feeds it daily, don’t @ me. 

he has a younger sister who he’d give his life for. the feeling probably isn’t mutual given the fact that her mun is pure evil.

“ you fucked up a perfectly good monkey is what you did. look at it. it's got anxiety. ”

unfortunately very patriotic. it makes me wanna barf. 

a little depressed, a little anxious – just like me! and just about every other writer in the world.

he’s very skilled with guns! obviously. but he’s surprisingly good. and now i don’t mean like ‘ uwu he’s the best in the world! ’ NO. i mean, surprisingly as he’s very anti using it. 

BISEXUAL KING.

MEET CASEY !

she nuts at the mention of fireflies. the military can’t get fucked. no printer just fax. 

her dad was in the military, tho, don’t bring that up. 

he died a couple years into the outbreak. never came back home. went out for milk, maybe. 

there’s a kitter running around town that she WANTS and she’s gonna get it. y’all watch her win its love. she’s gonna do it with tuna and tummy scratches. 

knives are cool but she’s not very good at throwing them. will, mayhaps, slit your throat though. WHO KNOWS? not me. 

her favorite food is deer. malia tate is quaking. 

she’s a chaotic stupid. chaotic neutral. chaotic bisexual. 

casey is super quirky, as if you can’t tell that by the fact that her name is literally CASSIOPEIA. 

she likes denim and converse. find her some, win her heart.

literally tho, she loves fireflies. don’t you forget it. 

she is moana. she loves the ocean, she wanna go back to the ocean, even if it’s filled with freaking corpses D:< 

will fight literally anyone for anything, aries sun, bitches. 

her hair is perpetually in a ponytail and she can’t write for shit. this is a sad life she’s living. 

BISEXUAL QUEEN. 

that’s it. that’s all. begone, THOTS.

#i dont have tags yet xd #ooc.

[prevsapphism]

some stuff about between two lungs, important if you interact with modernverse donna ( and morgawse, to a lesser extent: )

some quick background t start.

 the building that housed between two lungs was originally a community theatre, hence the stages, then it was a gym, and finally morgawse and the two other Unnamed Fae that teamed up with her bought it in like the 1970s and it became between two lungs. 

the theatre owned the building and leased it to the gym, who later purchased the building, moved somewhere else, and then sold it to morgawse and co.

actually between two lungs may share the space with the gym still?

it is the second biggest of the three main places i’ve dreamed up here-- the smallest, by comparison, is igraine’s small talk, then between two lungs, then the behring centre margot works at is the largest.

now, layout.

first / ground floor– main in-house stage. it’s decently sized, but not Awesome. used to stage smaller performances and for the First Round of Dress Rehearsals*. has a bunch of dressing rooms and some bathrooms.

second floor– main dance studio, more bathrooms. most group practises involving all of avalon’s maidens will be here. donna’s here too a lot of the time, but come equipped to handle a bunch of faeries hanging round freestyling or goofing off surrounding them. not a good spot if you want to see donna alone.

top floor– auxiliary dance studio, for smaller groups and solo practices. bathrooms with showers, couple dressing rooms. if you’re going to go see donna in between two lungs and they aren’t in a dress rehearsal, theres a good chance they’ll be in the auxiliary studio alone. ( or morgawse will be in there, in which case . Awkward, if you were looking for donna, or nice if you were looking to find the Saddest Dryad. )

 it also has a Full Gym the maidens rarely use ( it’s more of a weight room ) and a swimming pool. 

both are cleaned regularly and not awful, but the gym’s not been changed since like 2002. so like. if you wanna go do some cardio or whateva, go for it, it’ll just be on old ass equipment.

next, behaviour, people and traditions.

dance practises are usually a full day, or nearly a full day-- four to five hours long, with fifteen or twenty minute breaks in between, so the maidens are usually there for a good chunk of time. 

the closer they get to performances, the longer the rehearsals become.

there’s almost always muzak playing thru the speaker systems in the aux and main studios. ( they’re insulated with sound magic tho so it’s not like. a cacophony. )

 its default is usually rotating round a playlist of Alternative Indie Dancing Tunes for freestyling etc, so the maidens aren’t constantly fighting over who gets to pick which jamz. 

it can be switched to the songs they’re performing dances too, obv.

talking of freestyling, there’s a period before and after their rehearsals / practises and periods where the between two lungs maidens are allowed to freestyle, choreograph routines that are like. for themselves etc and like. do the dancing equivalent of doodling. 

unofficially, this period is also when the choreographer ( ? ) is working with a maiden about her dance / part of a larger performance and honing her moves and technique with her. i say ‘unofficially’ because you’re not really ~supposed~ to be freestyling / Dance Doodling in that time frame. you’re supposed to be ‘’’’’’practising your part.’’’’’’’’

 donna is rarely alone in between two lungs. the maidens of avalon are usually there playing games, auditioning potential members ( loooool, ) practising or doing other Faerie Witch Stuff. seriously there’s only nine of them how are they everywhere.

which brings me to my next point. being a dancer for between two lungs is audition-entry. 

they have a manager / producer / Take Care of Boring Stuff dude. his name is like peter or something. he’s a human hes like 45 and he’s never there unless the boring stuff needs taking care of.

they also have a choreographer. her name is like anastasia or something she’s a super old human and she’s sometimes there. she’s usually there the first day of a rehersal season to tell the maidens about a dance idea, teach them the steps and gone by the dress rehearsals towards the performing date.

between two lungs has a selected principal dancer, but the role changes with whatever project they’re working towards at the moment based on who best suits principal.

guess who it usually ends up being.

…..guess who’s a pouty kitter if they aren’t principal.

*between two lungs holds two rounds of dress rehearsals:  the first one the Gen Pop™ is allowed to watch in the in-house stage, but the second is invite-only at their mainstage in northwestern avalon. it’s magically protected and each maiden can only invite a Certain Amount of guests. 

the first round of dress rehearsals is first-come first-served so you gotta get there quick if you want a Sneake Peake of the performances.

you CAN come to between two lungs on a non-dress rehearsal day if you aren’t a dancer / don’t want to join / want to be there just to hang there ( i’m subtweeting artemisia, ) but it’s generally frowned upon and feels a little odd for the visitor, especially if you come by yourself instead of with a group.

 and by ‘frowned upon,’ i mean ‘you’ll have the avalon maidens Judging You and whispering about you if they catch you there ; even if they’re outwardly civil to you.’

also morgawse will be watching you like a hawk lol.

basically if you’re tryna get into between two lungs just to hang there, be sneaky and / or kiss up to the maidens. especially morgawse. fae gossip is not kind.

#☾ ☮ blank page for you. ( donna’s canons. )

I don't even have a joke wow fuck I'm lonely 74. Are you a bad person? 
STOP MAKING ME THINK ABOUT THIS SHIT IF I DO AND I DECIDE IM NOT I WILL SLIP INTO A SEVERE DEPRESSION that sounded funny in my head holy shit no it was not 75. Are you a lover or a fighter? 
I fight for love💁 76. What did you do on your last birthday? 
Some stuff my mother wouldn't be proud of 77. What is your favorite quote and why? 
“Quitting smoking is the easiest thing in the world. I've done it a thousand times." -Mark Twain. It illustrates some things I'm not in the mindset to process 78. If your best friend died, what would you do? 
NUUUUUUUUUU FUCKIN STAAAAHHHHHPPP I WILL CRY 5EVR 79. If you had to go back in time and change one thing, what would it be? 
Beat my bitch ass (holy shit I need to process stuff stop asking me these questions I thought I had a healthy-ish self esteem but clearly not #sendhalp) 80. If you only had 24 hours to live, what would you do? 
I have ADHD, so probably process everything at once and feel to panicked to do anything. That or the stimulation would be enough that I'd do everything and anything I wanted with no inhibitions. 81. What is the strangest dream you’ve ever had? 
One time I sucked on this hot chicks nipples and not only did it taste nasty but the nipple grew and stabbed my fucking throat OMG I DEEPTHROATED A NIPPLE THAT JUST CLICKED WTF 82. Are you happier single or in a relationship? 
In a relationship, if it's with the right person. 83. Who were you in a past life? 
Mark Twain Bitch! 84. What is your happiest childhood memory? 
I have no idea. None of them exist in a vacuum. They only matter in context of everything else. 85. Have you ever experienced unrequited love? 
The majority of my life since my first boner yes. 86. Have you ever had an imaginary friend? 
Oh I had like fucking 10 but they were all tv show characters except for one and I didn't like him that much. 87. If you were the president, what would you do? 
I would gather as much information as possible about the most important matters and work down from there. 88. What is your ideal career? 
Rn, comedian 89. What is your political affiliation? INDEPENDENT BITCH! 90. Are you conservative or liberal? 
I'm left leaning. I identify more with liberal values but both are important in order to balance eachother out (that's why our political atmosphere is so volatile. Used to be we'd have a democrat then a republican and they'd switch every year, but congress would have the opposite orientation as the president. Now we have a switching one party system every year.) 91. Is the male or female body closest to perfection? 
FUCKING WOMEN ARE YOU KIDDING ME WOMEN ARE HOURGLASSES MEN ARE LIKE UPSIDE DOWN TRIANGLES WITH LEGS AND A LITTLE DONGLE HOW IS THIS A QUESTION??!?!! 92. Do you like kissing in public? 
No. I'm constantly aware of everything going on around me so I need some privacy. 93. If you could change one thing in the world, what would you change?
