Absent Writer Doll

"I hope... That you could think the same of me."

"Because... You mean the world to me. More than the world. I would give it all up if it meant that I could spend an hour more with you." 'And, when the world takes its last breath, I could only hope that I spend that final moment with you."

"I am the poet they sent, when they suggested that they "should have sent a poet..." And, yet, the only words I can muster are..." "I love you." 'And... I can only ask... Is that enough?" ...

@Nekr013 this one is so sorry;;;

@AbsenceDoll Maybe. But now, that light has been snuffed out. My doll no longer wishes to come back. And now, I wait again, for something that will never happen again.

A doll. It waits patiently in the darkness. It knows its witch is coming. She wouldn't abandon it. No matter how shattered it may be. And so it waits. Fearless. Until All at once. It feels light shine on it again.

The doll grasps at its chest. The fabric of its dress crumpling within its grip. It loves her to. More than it could ever describe. More than it can ever express. It just hopes... That it doesn't let her down.

Yearning. She's beautiful. Radiant. Breathtaking. She's so much that it isn't. And yet she treats it as an equal. It couldn't have possibly deserved her love. Not with all the baggage that it carried. And yet she loves it anyway.

@Nekr013 this one doesn't know what the future holds, but this one wishes Zeroneox happiness. being replaced hurts. this one would know. but light will shine again, eventually. it has to. right?

@AbsenceDoll Sadly, that light ia beginning to dim. Doubt and fear cloud this ones mind, as they wait for their doll to answer. The fear of replacement hangs heavy.

A witch searching for her doll. It was still in the arcology when it collapsed. She, at the very least, needs to find its core, but... Its readings are all over the place. ... That... won't deter the witch, however. She will find what she's looking for. She must.

They will be loved all the same.

The cat won't live as long as the witch. And not nearly so long as the doll. But she is deeply cherished. A wonderful addition to their lives. And a reminder. Even if one doesn't live so long, one can have an irreplaceable impact on those around them.

A cat! She lies across the witch and doll! Both of them are petting her! She's purring! One of them stops for now. The cat meows! "Okay, okay, I'll keep petting you." A happy cat. A very happy cat. ...

@Nekr013 kindred spirit.

@AbsenceDoll As ready as I am to face the end, I'll never be ready for hers.

"This world is going to eat you up and spit you out." "You're... Probably not wrong. All things considered, I'll probably die an early death, some way, somehow. "Aren't you afraid of that?"

@Directrix7777 no matter what the future holds in store for Trixie, this one wishes Trixie happiness, no matter the form it takes. kindred spirit.

@AbsenceDoll It was bound to happen eventually. You’ve managed to capture part of my essence in text. Not that I wouldn’t try to resist the end if it could be helped. But if I know it’s coming, and there’s nothing to be done about it, I would think, okay, this is what’s happening now. Alright

"I'm cold. Are you?" "I don't feel cold." "So you must be warm!" "I don't feel warm or cold, you never built that function into me." "Oh... I was going to ask if I could hug you and share our body heat." ... "I would still like that." ''Yay!"

"Then what do you mean?" "I want you to be prepared so that you can survive it." "We both know that I'd welcome the end with open arms." "I... I..." "Yes?" "I'm sorry." "You've done nothing wrong."

"No, not really. In truth, I think that I kinda look forward to that moment. An end to my struggles, y'know?" "I'd miss you." "And yet you tell me the world is going to eat me up and spit me out?" "I just... Want you to be ready." "I am ready." "That's... Not what I mean."

@ShotgunEnvy this one hopes that its writings will continue to be beautiful! this one is grateful for Mistress Envy's support!

@AbsenceDoll Your writings are still so beautiful 💜

A witch crying into her doll's shoulder. She keeps on apologizing. That she should be stronger. That she shouldn't be putting so much pressure on the doll. That it deserves more than to be just a shoulder to cry on.

@Nekr013 this one is cheering for Zeroneox's and Zeroneox's doll. Zeroneox is stronger than one thinks, even if it isn't immediately obvious. not to mention that the desire to be stronger for one's loved ones is a wonderful thing indeed. this one wishes you two happiness!

@AbsenceDoll You always seem to write what is happening with me and my doll. I need to be stronger for her, and not let the small things get to me. But the distance and silence currently, make that a hard thing to do. Perhaps the waters for the next week will help.
