Searching doves

[nonomoribird]

I wonder why this place seems so silent. There are sounds, and there are people, but the shadows seem longer, somehow. I do not think it is very safe right now.

I have not seen the musician in a while. I wonder where he is.

...that's new.

Something you only see in your head. Something that's not really there.

It is?

But the shadow that she became attacked me.

[eaturdumbapple.livejournal.com]

Nobody told me about any shadow-things.

Creature, then. Shape-shifter. Used you as prey.

They found us all unaware, I think.

It reached for my heart. It was cold.

...fantastic.

What the hell? What kind of creature does that?

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

What is a hell?

Mother did that.

...uh. Just swearing. You don't get out much, do you?

No, it wasn't. ...probably. I don't know how your world works.

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

No. This is the second place I've been.

Mother took the children the outsiders gave her and turned them into shadows. They were different from the ones here.

Sheltered life?

Wait, you mean back home?

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

I was isolated.

Yes. That was what Mother did before the boy stopped her.

...I'll stop failing now thx. x.x

[eaturdumbapple.livejournal.com]

Sorry to hear that... any reason for it?

What boy?

GAH. I didn't get the notice for this, so sorry!

There was no one else living on the island but Mother and the birds.

The boy with horns.
