Finding Strange Things

[vampish_aleera]

I think I have found a cocoon...

I should bring it back, I think. Toshiko likes to study things.

I could have chosen to be mortal... As could Verona. We chose to remain unchanged, for reasons much like this.

Yes, we did achieve some dizzying heights, did we not?

But it is...heartening reassuring it pleases me that you did not wish away what I gave you.

Should I somehow endure these trials I would never wish to be mortal again. Disdain aside, I am not made for it.

There are times I wonder of myself... Where my life's path would otherwise have taken me to. But I cannot imagine it to have been nearly so grand.

So majestic.

[feels-no-love.livejournal.com]

Indeed.

Take a turn around the sky for me tonight, if you would.

[vampish_aleera]

I cannot... This place had stolen such ways from me.

[feels-no-love.livejournal.com]

...oh.

I am...sorry. I too have my wings clipped.

[vampish_aleera]

How strange... This was not so for me. I think not for Verona, either.

Oh.

[long pause]

I suppose that the Admiral did not want anything...so closely resembling a demon aboard.

Or perhaps he or she assumed I would use the form to cause trouble.

[vampish_aleera]

One cannot fathom the reasons of the mad.

You are correct.

At any rate, I will find ways to compensate for the loss. I was a force to be reckoned with even as a human. Even diminshed, I will find ways to prevail.

Enjoy your holiday, Aleera.
