Trash
The moment you touch the rim of the bottle to throw it away, you can see the shake hands holding it. Drunk. You assume. You’ve seen it before. Lot of beer can and bottle get left by drunks. You don’t mind cleaning up. It’s like people watching the past. But this. This is old. The path you see through the eyes of the former owner of the bottle is unmarked. The owner didn’t walk on the hiking trails but through the forest. Perhaps they weren’t public yet. The bottle is lifted toward the owners mouth. Emptying it. Now holding it down. The bottle in one hand while the former owner tries to undo his pants!? Oh. Ew.

A Zubs Beginning
The Zub, the name a creature of the deep was given by a rather affectionate being that had taken him into their realm of existence after the first being who was gifted the rights to his egg didn't register his beginning. Leaving it to another to safe keep and protect him until another rose to take the challenge of raising him. He was effectively orphaned...until Zarabi, the great dark one decided to let him stay in his realm for a time.
No one is quite sure of what happened within his realm, how the gem was treated and what traits he may of gained from his ‘caretaker’, at least not so far into the beings youth. The heartbroken ge

Back and Forth
It's all the same every day
You always have a lot to say
First you're angry, screaming loud
Then you're acting as if you're proud
First you say I screwed things up
Then you're giving me a free soda cup
You tell me I do nothing when I really tried
You ignore that you're killing me inside
Then you laugh and share the fun
As if a new day has begun
But it's not ok
It doesn't go away
You still make me feel like utter shit
Then a second later, forget about it
I do so much to please you
But all of my plans just fall through
You claim you show all the signs
You ignore everything the same of mine
When I wanna die you call me a liar

I dunno where the hell the title came from, but you know. Whenever I start a new document, I name it with the one-word theme that inspired it. In this case, it was "moving". But that's boring. Anyway.
I labelled this as mature content because, as with the others, there is referenced discussion of suicide. That's gonna be a recurring theme with Seamus. I'm glad to have finally connected everything here; Freya was kind of an afterthought, but Alice was always supposed to exist. She just wasn't really around until this week, when I finally started writing around her. I know this is kind of sloppy (my writing is apparently like a brick, or so I've been told), but I'm just so excited to have finally gotten this done. Alice and Seamus are gonna be tight, lemme tell you. She's kind of his story, in a way.
Also, this is dedicated to my guy Child-of-Sleep, who also sketched Alice and Seamus for me! (Linking to it below.) It's fantastic, and I highly recommend you check her art out. I can't thank her enough for sticking with me for the last few years and helping me out with my writing. (And, y'know, drawing my characters when she has no obligation to.)
So y'know, I'm proud of myself. I'm getting back into the swing of things with this piece, and I'm glad that I've come up with something new. It feels good, man.
That said, enjoy (or not)...

Oh man. I just love this so much. There's so much tension, and it's beautiful. This whole thing is beautiful.
I love that Seamus grins at the end. And I'm not sure if that's weird. I'm just picturing him like... he knows exactly what he is doing, doesn't he? Throwing Alice for a loop like that. I can't wait for whatever you do next with this story. I'm really looking forward to Alice and Seamus meeting each other? Like, I guess they're not complete strangers already, since Seamus has been hanging around and Alice is aware of his presence on some level. But man. Finding out that she has a new ghost friend is gonna be a lot to swallow.
