If I had a remembrance book, I would mark down how it was when we left our little house in the big woods to go west to Indian Territory. We had to go, Pa said, because so many people had come to live in the big woods, there wasn't enough game anymore for him to hunt and he feared we might go hungry. Ma said we might never again see Grandma and Grandpa, or Aunt Docia and Aunt Ruby and Uncle George. Though it made me sad, I still thought it a fine thing to go where there had never been a road before. We'd go where the land was more bountiful, he said, and he sold our house and land and cow, and packed whatever would fit in the wagon. I was glad Pa took his fiddle, for it makes a joysome sound. Mary was afraid to go, but I knew nothing bad could happen as long as we had Pa and Jack. Jack is my best and truest friend and Pa says there has never been a better watchdog. I knew there would be rivers to cross and hills to climb, and I was glad, for this is a fair land and I rejoiced that I would see it.
—Laura Ingalls, Little House on the Prairie, "Pilot"

Carrie Ingalls Swanzey was the younger sister of famous “Little House on the Prairie” author Laura Ingalls Wilder. The cold climate of the north was hard on Carrie’ asthma.

I didn't realize just how much Little Town on the Prairie meant to me as a book. I've barely started and every bit feels iconic. This one and Little House on the Prairie feel more like home than most of the other books do.
#little house#little town on the prairie#little house on the prairie#laura ingalls wilder#of course those two also just have to be the most problematic#we'll just move along past the blackface folks#nothing to see here#i'm trying to parse out why i feel such a strong connection to these two in particular#maybe it's because there's a heavy focus on farming and carpentry and small town country life and that's the background i come from#i know that this one already has the best sisterly content#i had a post brewing about how odd it is that of all the classic 'woman writing stories heavily based on her childhood' books#this series has by far the least focus on sisterly bonds#this subject will probably be its own post by the end of the book#i have been loving the greater laura-carrie connection i've never noticed before in the past two books#though i wasn't sure if it was really there or if i just paying more attention after going to the carrie museum#but this book is really giving us laura-mary friendship at last#which is great cuz in the early books she barely talks except to fight with laura#so it'll be nice to see that develop#not to mention we still have the iconic desk scene#(if this book gives mary her due it does continue the anti-older-sister crusade with its portrayal of eliza jane)#anyhow i should stop writing tags now have a good day

I swear if all the women Stephan King puts in his writing/films/etc just had one friend, their stories wouldn’t turn out so dark and sad
#I want to be friends with all of them#just tuck ‘em into bed give them a kiss and let them have their delusions#castle rock#annie ingalls#annie wilkes#carrie white#1970s carrie

Ingall carefully tucked Touma into Kit’s embrace and stalked through the house, dragging every blanket he could find with him. Returning to the couch, he wrapped them all up and nestled behind Kit, curling his tails around them, emitting a soothing low rumble from deep in his chest.
And damn if that didn't work wonders to calm Kit. Her crying subsided clutching Touma close. Finally she went to kiss the top of his head and froze at the sight of him. "Are my eyes still messed up or is my baby gold?"
Before anyone else could answer Kagu leaned forward with a growing frown "Why are your eyes messed up? What in Stars name happened?"
Kit gave a watery laugh, even though none of their situation was funny, and briefly explained about the ambush at the bottom of the hill at the human half of the Shrine and that she'd been shot but Ingall and Kuko had come to the rescue.
There was a beat of silence before Kagu asked again anger growing in his tone "Your eyes?"
"Ah well... he wasn't lying when he said he'd killed me. For all intents and purposes my heart and breathing stopped." Kit managed to offer a watery smile "I think I lost some brain cells and connections from lack of oxygen and they're still working on repairing themselves." she held up her left hand where her pinky twitched on it's own accord "See? I'll be fine eventually." She assured them but her question about her baby being gold still stood.
#aizawasluckylady#this is why she couldn't carry Ingall down#and why she was in the kitchen trying to bake#trying to get things working again properly#FF#she was a bit miffed she couldn't remember her favorite cookie recipe#at the time
