Found Another Fish
Stay with one forever, never to be separated The inner turmoils, together you’ve survived To make that binding vow, for three years you’ve waited

Energy. None. Everything. Stuck. Nothing. Moving. No. Kinetic. Can’t. See. Excessive. Muck. Gray. Cold. Lonely. Pathetic.

You Hate Your Work, and I Found Out Why
We all know that one brilliant artist from elementary school who always said their work was awful before surprising the teacher yet again with a masterpiece.

Extinguished Knighthood
“There weren’t always dragons in the Valley. Back before humans tarnished most of this planet, there was no need for us. That’s what I was told, anyways. I don’t think there’s anyone left who can confirm it, though. All I know is that once humans started conquering parts of Earth from the native species, we were called to keep them under control.
