Sekrit Life — Chapter 17: The Day The Shadows Withdrew.
The critters woke up this morning, and discovered that all their shadows were missing. Their shadows are their companion friends, and they feel very alone without them. It’s a mystery. One they are going to solve. This is part 1. Next week will present part 2.
You know how this works, but as always, a gentle reminder:
- No trolling the diary.
- If you hate pootie diaries, leave now. No harm, no foul.
- Share any and all pootie/woozle photos or issues that you would like .
- When it comes to problems, we may just have someone with experience who can help.
- Whatever happens in the outer blog STAYS in the outer blog. This is a place to relax and play; please treat it accordingly.
- There is no such thing as stealing a photo around here, but if you would like a pic from the comment threads, please ask the poster. He/she may have a copyright to those pics. Many thanks!
- It should not need to be said, but ANY/ALL photos that imply or encourage human violence against an animal will be considered verboten! Whether it is “comedic” or not, it will be frowned upon and considered out of bounds
There’s anger and sadness. There’s surprise and shock. There is disbelief and so many questions. Our best people are on the job. The response has been tremendous. Answers will be found. CritterNation will be great again.
Indeed, that is the question of the day!
Why would they have gone? What drove them to this precipitous behavior?
They left because they felt unappreciated? Oh, we need to talk to those reckless, heedless shadows!
We have to acknowledge our sadness. We have speak our feelings. We have to grieve before we can move forward. We must recognize the importance of our Shadow Friends, and tell them so.
Everyone is afraid to go walkabout without their friendly Shadows for company.
The fur and feather friends feel alone and skeered without their Shadow Friends.
Some have already begun to look for their mutinous Shadow Friends.
The Naranja twins, as usual, one step ahead, and already working on getting answers.
Wut? You don’t know? You certainly look like you belong to a pootie.
Pootie — NooraNoir is bereft and mourns the absence of her Shadow Friend. She has been waiting there since dawn.
Some have crawled into places, and are going to stay there until their Shadow Friends return.
The Three Wise Birds have spoken. They have provided directions as to how to bring back the Shadow Friends. Who will undertake this magical journey?
Here’s two who will join the band, and go on the journey to find the Shadow Friends, and negotiate their return.
Oh noes!!! I don’t think your Feathers were Parrots!
Two moar getting ready to join the search, and go on the road to find all the Shadow Friends.
Now that raises a deep question. Does our Shadow Friends need us? Or do we need them moar? Do they give us meaning, and define our shape?
Meet the pootie, Sir Meowing Knight, an experienced leader of the Search Pack.
Count on the very skilled pootie, Oranzhereya to locate the Antlered Ones, and seek their help.
Ah, the magical Antlered Ones! Oh, so awesum!!!
