More art for JBD 340! Looking at it now, the baby ghost bean looks like a cat *facepalm* but I'm still really happy with how it turned out.

I wrote a little story to go along with this :3

I sat on the hill with the whimsical little bean. She stared up at me with her huge, ethereal blue eyes and then looked out towards the horizon. My gaze followed her's and there it was again, that same scene. Blue, deep dark blue slowly fading into the distance to a brilliant white light; like being locked in a box with a tiny hole in the side. The air around me was cool but I could feel the warmth coming from the light, could feel it on my skin through my fur; it felt...safe. This is the scene that I saw, what I felt, every time when they were ready, when they had done what they needed to do. I glanced down at the little bean, she never had told me her name but many didn't, maybe she was one of the ones that passed before she ever got one.
"Are you ready" I asked. She glanced at me again, only for a moment, but I saw the fear nestled deep in her beautiful blue eyes.
"I...I'm...." she began, sighing when she was unable to answer. "Does it hurt?" her voice was quiet.
"No, I don't think it does. It's..warm" I replied.
"Warm?" she questioned, of course she didn't know what warm felt like.
"It's a good thing" I told her.
"Promise?"
"Cross my heart."
And with that, she swirled around me a few more times and started towards the light. A few of the orbs lingered, little fragments of her soul that still weren't convinced. I nudged them with my nose and they followed her reluctantly.
"It's um, I feel, um...it's uh.." She mumbled, looking back at me.
"Good?" I finished for her. She nodded and smiled at me before continuing.
"Thank you" I heard her say, though her voice was distant now as she got closer to the light, her presence seeming to make it glow brighter. She stopped for a moment, one last thought perhaps, and then the light grew brighter and brighter, blinding me so that I had to look away. When I looked up again, she was gone and all I saw on the horizon was the brilliant sunrise.
