time moves differently for mice. little more than a year has passed, and Rebel City Shyron has done what nearly no mouse in the world accomplishes: she went to sleep and did not wake up

a mouse dies many ways in this world. most die afraid and in pieces, and their meat is a flavor for something larger. many die in water, or in sickness. some die with a greater weight than themselves spreading the shell that holds their identity across the ground.

a rare few live long enough for their bodies' flaws to reveal themselves, and they grow swollen, gain new spheres that crush their bones and their organs away and squeeze the life from them in unrelenting vice pressure

among mice who live on the inside, under the watch of a person, many die by the neck, an immediate silencing of the self. often this is a mercy in the shape of violence, and a truncation of a prolonged, pain-filled approach to the same end point

it is a shocking minority who are capable of leaving behind a corpse framed in a perpetual repose, sleeping comfortably in a nest prepared by their own paws. Shyron, you have in death accomplished the greatest feat any of your short-lived kind can achieve. you died wholly on your own terms, free of disease, cancer, fear, or discomfort. if a mouse can be said to have won, you have won, consistently, from birth until the moment of your cessation.

Shyron enjoyed sitting at the window and boggling at the sunlight and the distant smells of the open world. She was a prolific mousecrafter and was unmatched in nestmaking and grass arrangement. Of all the mice who have had Stewardship of Clearwall Abbey, yours was certainly the golden age, as brilliant-gleaming as your fur in the sunset's light.

Excellent work, and enjoy your retirement from your individually instanced reality

Little man in a wine glass (Limwig) is a really beautiful, well-marked tricolor lavender satin mouse. His fur is hollow (a result of the satin gene), which means that as he moves , he actually shines like satin. On light-colored mice (particularly white areas) this can also look like thin fur, because you can see through the finer hairs to see skin (particularly around the face, where the fur is very short).

He is a REALLY gorgeous boy and I am desperately hoping that he is horny and fertile as fuck, because I really him to make some babies with the ladies I've been setting aside waiting for a nice male. All of the males so far have been poorly marked- enough to tell they're tricolors, but still a mostly-white mouse with what looks like a dirty butt, usually.

Fingers crossed for this guy!!
