Thea, on the other hand, very much enjoys their home. She better, because it was her idea to come here. Orangemoon has cooled the Throat down some, and it’s possible to be out during the day, rather than hiding in the water and sleeping in the little shade they could find. She’s gotten lazy, truthfully, complacent in this place and the quiet life she’s established for herself and Thea. On occasion, Thea drags them both into social situations, but even Thea seems largely content with their quiet life.
Today is a usual day for them. The day is surprisingly beautiful. Thea, content in her hydra form for now, slithers along their usual path toward the water, Syrena trailing in her wake. Her companion is a pile of energy, always ten steps ahead, or just moving circles around Syrena. They reach the water, and Thea dives in, creating a ruckus like she always does. Syrena wades in quietly, letting the warm water lap at her legs, turning her red and orange and yellow where the water touches.
Like usual, she assumes her day will pass like this. Thea playing, Syrena doing nothing useful at all. She just doesn’t know where to begin, though she’s trying. Giving away keys, waiting for orders from her monarchs. She’ll work when given the work, but what else do you do? When life just takes and takes everything from you, why work for it again?
