Day 28: Morris Park

[from Kelley Street]

The shinigami quietly entered the rundown park. It looked forlorn and very much like there should be a hollow or two hanging out in it. Yet a quick check of the spirit threads gave her no indication of any present. The gloomy atmosphere was perfect for her to do some deep thinking about herself and what all had happened in Soul Society.

Picking a bench under a tree, she sat and stared off into the park..She needed the quiet.

"I know I'd consider it one," Ken muttered. He didn't get along well with fire, or the idea of fire. "But hell, who needs bad omens." Ken knew bad things were going to happen. He didn't need a cloud formation to tell him that much.

"Right..." Artemis murmured, trying to shake the feeling of imminent doom from his system. "Em... That one looks like a willow tree!"

He was starting to feel like he was getting the hang of this game.

"And that one's a rabbit." Ken was good at putting things out of his mind.

It really was a rather simple game.

Artemis smiled. He'd never had a childhood pet, but he'd always admired animals. Right now, he was wishing he could have some sort of furry thing in his lap to pet. Perhaps this whole mental institution thing could work as a paid vacation--during the day at least.

"That one looks like Holly," He caught himself. "I mean, a bird."

That was an odd slip to make. "Pet bird?" Ken ventured. It wasn't unheard of to speak of pets as if they were people.

Of course, Artemis could have meant a person. There was all sorts of weird shit going on here.

"A friend..." He said finally. "She's a fairy, but she doesn't always have wings like that. Just when it's necessary for her to fly."

Which was pretty much all the time, come to think of it.

"Huh. Here I thought all fairies had wings." Ken didn't find fairies so unbelievable. Why not? He'd seen all sorts of other weird shit, here, even back in his own world. And Artemis was from another place entirely.
