Double up On Twin Month · 11:30pm Feb 11th, 2022
It is the second week of Twin Month 2022, and we are releasing the other half of last week's story, which fittingly contains the "conclusion" to the happy twins therein~.
There once was a crab on the beach, it polished its scale on a smooth rock.
It wondered, "how come my shell is rigid, yet the stone here's a polished block?"
The tides answered. First one wave, then another. Washing over crab and rock, a briny breeze of the ocean.
After two waves, the crab scuttled upwards, to safety. Yet, the rock remained as the third wave swept in.
The crab stared, hour after hour, as crabs tend to do, and the rock never moved, as the grit of salt polished the stone.
Eventually, the crab understood. That the world would wear down those who stood still, sooner, than those who stayed in motion.
Happy Twin Month~.
