a little rain never hurt anyone
Who: Seer and open!
When: Midday
Where: the park of mystery and dayglo flowers
Saoirse Shaddock was in danger of becoming an optimist.
This really wasn't such a strange thing. In her human life, she'd been frequently optimistic. Not so much after death, but with the way things were going? It was possible she was rethinking her situation. Oh yes, there had been dark days - recently, even. And yet things in her life seemed determined to turn around. She was back in school, and despite still getting a lot of whispers as 'that vampire,' she felt good about it. She was growing to really love her job - and the people of various states of humanity she worked with. Her boss was a particular bright spot. And now? Now the park was taken over with a dash of Dr. Seuss, and there was no way Seer could tear herself away. Oh sure, she'd had to work, but between her shifts she kept coming straight back. The weather of the previous days had not stopped her. As a human, the heat would have driven her into life as a hermit. Another bright side to this whole 'being dead' thing.
Oh sure, there was also rain and fog to deal with, but she'd always been the sort of person who liked rain and fog anyway. She set herself up on top of a picnic table with an oversized umbrella. Problem solved. While she didn't mind getting wet herself, she'd rather keep her sketchbook dry. She would have loved to bring a canvas down here and paint her surroundings, but it was too much to lug around - especially in this weather. She sat indian-style on the center of the table, smiling to herself as she sketched. This was some straight up Alice in Wonderland shit. Yes, please!
