everything's coming up sunshine

Ray

Every breath,
is a giveaway dance

"A yellow one? Alright!" Ray finished up the basic outline in the darker gray and black stones. "Let's start filing it in." She began to place yellow stones within the shape, handing some stones over so that Paige could do the same. The Attuned made sure to leave room in their surroundings in case Paige wanted to create multiple drawings. A whole collection of colorful butterflies did sound fun after all. And it'd likely be a nice surprise for whoever arrived later.

Paige's excitement over her Attuned status had Ray chuckling. "It's really cool. Being a cat is lots of fun. You can climb trees and jump super high. And it makes exploring even more exciting because you can hear, see, and smell more than you normally would." At the child's wish, a gentle smile came to Ray's lips. "One day you might be able to. You never know."
