A little story. · 11:32pm Sep 23rd, 2020
Ah... It seems that your journey has ended Blue. Very sorry about that - It was always going to end this way, of course. If it weren't by them, it would've just been by me or... y'know, terrible thing just... You could not imagine how terrible it would be. Just... I get scared thinking about it! Glad it's not me.
Reminds me of a.. of a time I was speaking to my good friend ReBliss. We were... we were sitting on a park bench watching the pigeons. I was on the left, she was on the... oh wait. Was I on the right?.. or left? Anyways, it doesn't matter. We were sitting on there, watching the pigeons, and I.. uh.. I said to ReBliss:
"Friend, those birds are frozen!"
She... kinda looked at me like I'd lost my mind. But I reminded her that it was winter, y'know? And often birds will sit in a tree until they'd freeze... Then they'd, they'd, you know, sort of fall to the ground until the sun warms up, an- and they can, y'know, move around again.
So I said to ReBliss "You'd might as well save those breadcrumbs until the birds thaw, because they can't very well enjoy them in the condition they're in."
To which she asked what I meant, and asking what condition the crumbs should be in before he threw them to the birds, assuming that I had meant the birds couldn't enjoy the breadcrumbs in the condition that the crumbs were in, when in fact I had meant the birds couldn't enjoy them in the condition that the birds were in, considering the birds were frozen, y'know?
So she took a moment and then threw her last hoof-full onto the ground. I said to her "ReBliss, why did you throw the breadcrumbs to the birds when I just told you they're frozen?"
To which she responded "The breadcrumbs are not frozen," again misunderstanding my words. I didn't mean to say that the breadcrumbs were frozen when I told you they're frozen. I've been referring to the birds.
You know, in hindsight, what I - what I should've said was - and this would make perfect sense: "Why did you throw the breadcrumbs to the birds when the birds are frozen?"
She misunderstood upon my correction, stating that she didn't know what else to do with the breadcrumbs, and that perhaps, y'know, when the birds thawed they'd still be able to eat the crumbs.
So I...I..I said to ReBliss - I said - This is what I said to her - I said:
"ReBliss, the birds may be dead."
