Tala heard the Pokeballs hit the water's surface. She cursed in German, then took a deep breath and bent down, searching for them in the dark murky water. She felt them and her hands closed around them. She lifted them up and, hearing the click, let out a whoop of joy.
Gold knew that he couldn't perform at his best in a wet and rainy storm, but Tala was in trouble. He swooped down and plucked her out of the hole.
Tala winced as her leg throbbed. Her lungs were nearly full of water and her body was caked with mud. Then, against her will, she blacked out.
Gold laid her under a tree, nodded to Ivan, then retrned himself, needing a little nap and knowing his work was done.
I'm collecting the 2020 Easter bunnies designed by Anouki. They're based on a
Japanese pottery technique where items are repaired by glueing the pieces back
together with a (typically) gold lacquer. It's called "kintsugi" and the idea behind
this is that broken things can still be beautiful, a mantra that has helped me cope
with the latest years of my depression. I've been saving up for a tattoo, to be my
first one, which will also be fashioned after kintsugi. That's why this design holds
a lot of sentimental value for me and, consequently, why I'm setting up a hoard
for them: to remind myself that even though I'm still struggling now, I will get
better. Please help me with this hoard. Thanks for reading. ~Love from Moony
