  • [fancypost borderwidth=0px; width: 345px][justify][size=7pt][font=georgia]Morrissey had been writing most of the day, working on his dark poems. Sometimes he'd sing them, so perhaps it was considered song-writing? Both were closely related, but oh well. Sitting outside his stone hut, he was finishing a few segments to one of his works. The segments weren't in much order though; his thought process was a bit unusual, parts of the poetry mixed up, the beginning stanzas being worked on after the middle and the last being, well, last, and so on. Several lines had been scribbled and edited, and some numbers by each stanza telling the true sequence had been replaced.


    On another sheet, he was rewriting what he had on the heavily edited paper, this time keeping things cleaner however still jumbled stanza wise.



    Park the car at the side of the road 1
    You should know
    Time's tide will smother you
    And I will too


    I wish I could laugh 3
    But that joke isn't funny anymore
    It's too close to home
    And it's too near the bone
    It's too close to home
    And it's too near the bone
    More than you'll ever know


    Kick them when they fall down 4
    Kick them when they fall down



    I've seen this happen in other people's lives
    And now it's happening in mine. 6


    It was dark as I drove the point home
    And on cold leather seats. 5
    Well, it suddenly struck me
    I just might die with a smile on my face, after all


    One of the stanzas had been missing, tucked away on some other sheet of paper. It was the first one he had scribbled down, possibly explaining why it was separated from the others. Morrissey bit his lip, thinking intently as his eyes went back and forth from behind his glasses as he read lines over and over again, or going up and down as he read the whole thing from start to finish in the right order.


    After one final look through, he took a break from writing, getting up onto his paws and stretching, curling his toes. Today was rather slow but atleast productive in regards to the writing process.

    "watcha' doin', morri?" hakuna questioned as he strolled towards the tom, attempting to get a sneak peek over this shoulder as he did so. it appeared that he was writing something, but he did not quite know what. hakuna himself had just returned from his mission to save the world from the anti-freshkill clan. sadly, his plan had failed when the rabbit he had been tracking decided it would be best to hide out in the shelter of some brush.

    Arcade had thought a walk would perhaps wake him up properly, but that hadn't seemed to work so far. Hearing Hakuna's cheery voice and the name only he seemed to use for Morrissey, the cameo changed his course to meet them instead. He smiled wearily, but in a rather friendly manner nonetheless. He liked them both, the smile was worth the effort. "Yeah, Morrissey, what're you up to?"

  • [fancypost borderwidth=0px; width: 345px][justify][size=7pt][font=georgia]Morrissey was caught mid-stretch, holding the position for a second as he looked up at the two who were addressing him. Both were good company and were perhaps the only few he considered friends here in BlizzardClan so far, so his typical, set and serious face brightened up slightly as he summoned his small smile.


    "Mm? Just doing some writing. Was about to load things up and go inside, but that can wait," he informed them, letting his muscles loosen as he returned to regular posture. Giving Hakunakit a brief glare from his attempts to peek over his shoulder, Moz began to carefully fold the few sheets of paper. "You could of just asked to see, you know. Anyways, back to what I was saying - that can wait, unless you wish to come inside. It's mighty hot after all. Escape the heat." The cool shade of the hut would be pretty relieving.
