come one come all ! get rid of all imperfections with the beautiful,
illustrious, Cressida!

people lined up from around the block to look in callisto's mirrored
fur.

"impatience"

Cressida fidgeted in her spot. how long would all these people take?

"temper"

didn't they understand she had her own life to live? these traits aren't
set in stone, become a better person on your own time!!

"selfish"

"impulsive"

"rude"

the list of thing kalons didn't like about themselves went on and on.
sometimes it was as trivial as "late" or as heavy as "guilt". but no matter
what it was, Cressida took it. not only took it, she absorbed it. you see,
she was born as a blank slate. no actual personality of her own. but,
even as a kit she had this curse. it started with her mother. "tch. I wish
I wasn't such a bad cook." suddenly, she could make gourmet dishes from
scrap. then her sisters "I wish I wasn't so stupid" and suddenly, all of the
hours of studying callisto had done melted away. it was just gone. but
how could she be mad? she physically couldn't, no one had given her
that trait yet. all she felt was a dull numbness where she knew
something else belonged. and this is how she knew happiness, joy,
kindness, love. she felt them as 'lack therofs'. after all, who would
give that away? when her anger faded away she knew she had
forgiven. when she watched a sunset on a particularly bad day and
sadness slinked away she breathed it in and enjoyed her fake 'bliss'

all that changed when she met him.

Basil. Cressida had never know anyone so pure. He originally went there
to get rid of a trait himself. "selfishness" she absorbed it, and
immediately he noticed that she didn't just make it disappear,
she now shouldered the burden. Cressida flinched. when kalons
noticed that she took on the traits they felt guilty. unfortunately,
they also unloaded that guilt onto her.

Basil was different. He immediately started apologizing and said he
would help her. what do you want? he asked.

"I want to know what curiosity feels like. and that feeling you get after
helping someone. or that bond you feel with a friend who you've known
for years."

ok, he responded.

and he made it his duty to show Cressida the light in the world. she
didn't understand everything, especially when he related things like
elation to surprise and joy. but she listened. it was the kindest thing
anyone had ever done for. "I love you," he would say. "I hate you too,"
she would respond. they had their own understanding. and Cressida
came to understand that it was friendship.

until one day.

"Basil? what are you doing in line?"

"Happiness"

"Wait, stop!!"

"Kindness"

"Basil, please, no!"

"Joy, Love, Peace"

Cressida started to cry. it was impossible to refuse. this was her curse.
instead she had to watch as the light melted away from her only friend's
eyes. she felt grateful, of course (he gave her that trait), but she was
never really happy after that. she still keeps him by her side, as she
searches for a way to end the curse. sometimes she tries to teach him.
"look at that flower. pretty, right? do you feel anything." "no. I'm sorry."
that's all he had left. his original guilt after he forced her to take his
selfishness.

now you can find her under the sycamore tree. watching sunrise and
sunset and sunrise and sunset until maybe, someday, something clicks
and she gets her best friend back.
