Lioness is in a children's festival, her cousin has a party for her birthday and Lioness and her family are joining the celebration. After leaving the party, she enters a cave. Inside the cave, children and parents are roaming around with flashing lights. The only logical conclusion is that this is a kid's themed party. Lioness wants to explore every part of this huge fun house type of cave.

When she reaches the end, her and flapper spot a lonely child. Lioness and flapper approach it cautiously trying to befriend it and find out where it's parents are.  Flapper manages to throw a wipe to the child which wraps itself around him. It doesn't hurt it, it is quite common actually, and is only meant to keep him from straying away.

However, it appears as though a mean, bad guy has come and wants to harm the child. He takes water and tries to throw it at flappers wire wipe so that the young boy gets electrocuted.

"No!" screams Lioness. "Who would want to harm a child?!" Instead she focuses the attention of the mean man at her and is willing to take the lashing.  The mean man bumps his knee into hers and she ducks her head low while covering it with her hands. And just then, a cloud of smoke appears.

...it's unclear what happens next, but as the smoke clears parents are gathering their kids, and the boy is reunited with is mom and dad. Happy to be home. After thanking the girls, they head out.

Feeling proud of themselves, Flapper and Lioness return home, unharmed.

So that's what It feels like

Lioness and her family are visiting a street fair. Most booths are outside in a playground, but there is also a section of booths inside a cave. When lioness and her family decided to go in the cave, Lioness did not really find anything that was too fascinating. At the last booth, Lioness stopped. Two elderly beagle dogs were selling old (and current) currency from all over the world. Lioness wanted to find Israel's (her country of Origin), and show it to her father. Maybe he'd find it cool. He didn't seem so interested, when Flappers boyfriend, Baby Turkey looked at his own countries old money and showed it to my dad he seemed more interested. (polite?)

After BT bought a coin, and Lioness and Flapper bought a few pieces of Jewelry, on the way home everyone got ice cream, and went back home.

But that's not the end of that story. You see, while everyone was looking at the money, Lioness managed to steal one of Israel's $1,000,000 bills.  By the next day it had been announced on the news that a bill was stolen from the fair and that police were looking into it.

Guilt set over Lioness, "Shit I don't even remember taking it! I don't even know why I would do it, but now I have it". To get rid of it, she dug a hole a foot or two deep in the ground, put the money bill in a small chest and covered it. Lioness thought, no one would find it that way.

When flapper and Lioness's parents found out that the item was stolen from the news, they discussed it with the kids over dinner. Saying how serious of an offense that was. Guilt swept over Lioness. She really didn't want the damn money. She felt horrible about the whole thing, it was a big secret that she didn't know if she could keep. She wanted to yell out "I have it! Come take it" but was too afraid.  The parents looked around at everyone waiting to see if they'd crack, but Lioness stayed strong. She didn't laugh out of guilt, or give away any indication she had something to do with this. Flapper looked at  Lioness to see if she'd break. Maybe Flapper had suspicions for a brief moment.

Meanwhile, the television news was reporting that police were going to take immediate action when they find the perpetrator and prosecute them and give them jail time.

A few days later the police found the surveillance tape of the people looking at the money booth in the fair. They were closing in....on someone else. Phew! a bit of relief...but how long will it last? How long can Lioness keep this secret in?! She felt guilty, sad, and heavy. There was nothing she could do now to make it better.

While working together at a restaurant, the police announced that they found the chest with the bill, Flapper asked Lioness if she did it. Lioness couldn't control it anymore, she smiled and said no in a last effort, but Flapper caught her bluff. She flipped out and started yelling that she did it. Lioness didn't know what to do...She left the restaurant and left the customers,not thinking about them so much about how mad she was at Flapper for screaming at her in public and exposing her to others. If she was genuinely mad or concerned, why couldn't flapper talk to Lioness about it in private?

Now everyone was looking at Lioness and her guilt. She knew she shamed her family. And when her dad tried to talk to her, she couldn't and continued walking.

Lioness felt like "the most hated woman in the world". That line kept repeating itself in Lioness's head as she cried and walked home.

love the way it smells

It's summer on the Island.

By the lake with yellow sand, Lioness is enjoying the warm sand on her paws. This is the softest sand one can imagine. She finds a delicious looking insect and follows it's fast movement.  Her eyes and her head follow the beetle. She picks up the pile of sand with Mr. beetle and wonders what is the best way to stop it from slipping through her fingers.

In the clear shallow waters she jumps in, and feels refreshed (for a change). She sees little fish swimming quickly by and tries to catch them too. Too bad they all seem to scurry away. At least it's fun while it lasts...

The Tao of Honey

An ancient saying goes as following "you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar". Translation = One gets more friends or is liked more by being sweet and good natured towards others. However, has anyone ever thought of how the honey feels? Sweet little honey is nice to people and gives the flies a chance and yet they turn out to be grotesque insects. Why can't honey attract water to balance it out? Or an equally sweet vanilla? It seems as though vinegar gets all the glory, being poured into salads or used for various cooking recipes. Damn Vinegar. Honey might get the occasional bear but bears are just flies in disguise aren't they? 

Sorry Lioness, now your paws are just sticky, I know how much you hate that. 

"This is cliche and trite, but it is mine. Don’t sleep."

"This is me at my most honest. My most naked. I think somewhere in everyone is The Boy. No one wants to be what they are... This story is a complete waste of the eyesight you will lost reading it. When you are done you’ll ask yourself what the point was. There isn’t one. Every life has a lull in it that gets so bad and seems so long that you can’t remember when or why it started. It skips around and probably isn’t worth it but to me it reads like the bible. This is the story of a lull, read it like a crime scene report or an autopsy, because that’s all it ever was."

Poachers!

Must be!?!

They took Lioness and her family. Her hands are chained to a chair. Foreign guards with guns are watching making sure no one moves.

Do you think Lioness would stay still? She tries to rip off the chains, check if her wrists can be pushed through the handcuffs, but unfortunately she can't get them off. Fear fills the air and consumes all of Lioness. Flapper seems to be free and unaware of what is going on behind the wall separating herself and the rest of the family.

Thank the heavens that the governments military raided the place and shot all the foreign guards...

Even though it seems like a short event, for Lioness it appeared to last forever. It was still extremely terrifying.

Lioness's heart raced even after it was all over. She looked around her and saw darkness, was it all a dream?

Really bad-don't read-unedited-thought I'd write it down for later

He cares so much that he won't respond.
He cares so much that he won't fight back when I let him go. And he likes me so that he'll keep himself busy with other girls.
And he wants revenge
That's why we were friends
He'd rather let me figure things out alone
Only remembers when he needs a moan
Sweet when he's bored
got a small hunch that
Maybe he's shady
But it can't be that bad
because he must care enought to keep coming back
but in reality he puts in no effort
and I've been in bed since...
but it's okay, he's still keeping busy
He doesn't even miss me.



Chocolate and heels.
I wore my heels for you today, I bought you chocolate and went out of my way.
I mustered up the courage, I stormed in. I smiled outside. You turned around and she was tehre. I frowned inside. Once again I'm screwed. Once again I got fooled. I thought we could be more than friends. I rememered us comparing hands. Having chicken on a date, I actually ate. It was an effort- I was out of my comfort zone-now I'm alone. It'd be a lie to say I hope youre happy. This story I'm too familiar with. Heart broken. Off to dream again.

Metamorphises

Remember baby Owl? Lioness's nocturnal friend? He appeared again, this time after not seeing him for a while he seemed to become even more beautiful. He transformed into a small Alaskan Klee Kai dog (pictured above). Only a better confirmation that he is more like Lioness than previously thought.

Again Lioness was walking to school when he appeared next to her. Looking as handsome as ever. She tried to connect with him, but it was short lived for Kai (as he is now called), had someone else in mind. This broke Lioness's heart and she told Babar.

She thought maybe if she fell asleep next to him with those piercing blue eyes which she just seemed to notice in all the imaginary beauty, all would be well.

She woke up and he was gone.
