"Friends of a Feather." The best thing about the beginning of Autumn was that the Dog Days of Summer were over. The heat and humidity finally giving way to lower temperatures and blustery breezes. Promises of longer nights, cooler days and all the coming activities that would have the streets of Silverlight bustling with busy Kitsu. Autumn meant Harvest Festival, meant Hallowed Haunt, meant Sweetie's Tooth would be reopening soon, with the possibility of new kit costumes this ye...

"Jaden, are you still awake?" Vervain stepped into the bedroom, voice soft, just in case Jaden was asleep. The terrestrial was flopped out on the bed, part of their costume still on, the rest in a heap on the floor. The celestial paced over quietly, guessing the answer, when Jaden didn't reply. ...

Jaden paused for a moment from tilling the soil, wiping sweat from their brow with the back of one arm. Smearing a line of sweat and dirt across their forehead. The terrestrial leans on their hoe, listening with ears cocked sideways as a cacophony of bird noise rises from the orchard behind the house. It's not birdsong that would be a pleasant sound, generally speaking. This is ...

When the festival festivities were at their height, an eclectic group of kitsu brought out some musical instruments and makeshift instruments, and music was played. An emcee took center stage and began to make jokes and sing traditional seasonal songs, riling up and then mellowing out the crowd in turn. When they had caught most of the crowd's attention, and most of the kitsu were gathered near, couples and little groups broke out into dancing. Some, like Vervai...

Jaden split off from Vervain after they had arrived in town, Ver, in their cute witch costume, was headed towards the 'Potluck' to drop off their side dishes and help man the tables. Jaden's course, on the other hand, took them all around town. As it was explained, 'Trick or Treaters' were supposed to come to your house and knock, and you gave them little treats or candy. However, neither Vervain nor Jaden had wanted to spend the festival night alone at home. No...

Vervain knotted the lovely green scarf that Jaden had gifted them around their throat. It didn't exactly match the pale purple witch dress that they chose to wear as their costume, but it was warm, and soft, and Jaden had given it to them, so they wore it as often as they could. Probably, when they were in town enjoying the festivities, they would loosen it, if they became too warm, with the crowds and the merry making. For now they fluffed themself up in the mi...

Finally, Jaden was able to take their work with wool one step further. They had acquired a loom! Setting up the wooden contraption in their work room, (after moving things around and freeing up the space for it), had been a job all on its own. Once it was set up, they could slowly begin to learn how to start weaving cloth. Despite being a terrestrial kitsu, and having green, green thumbs, loving working in the orchard and the gardens, with plants in general, Jad...

"Jaden?" The old front door creaked open on its rusty hinges. "I'm out on the porch, Ver," Jaden called back. The celestial's face appeared in the doorway, they smiled at their friend and housemate. "It's really nice out this evening, and the moon should be coming up soon. I thought I...

A cold, cold day in autumn found Vervain retreating into the kitchen all day. Jaden had taken on all of the chores that needed to be taken care of out of doors, ushering Vervain back inside when a particularly cold breeze had snuck up beneath the celestial's cloudy tail, and caused them to shiver and sneeze hugely. Jaden could tolerate the cold better, and Vervain preferred to take on the cooking, rather than tending the flock. It didn't take them much convincin...

"Brrrr!" Jaden hurried inside and closed the door quickly behind themself, shaking their whole body, snapping their tri-tails, and hurrying away from the door, in towards the kitchen. "It is cold out there," they announced, gladly accepting the mug of hot tea from Vervain's hands. "Thanks." "How were all the an...

One cold night in late autumn, Jaden and Vervain are making their way back home from an event held in town that day. They walked hand in hand, chatting together about nothing important, in no hurry despite the chill. Jaden is warm enough in just their fluffy, fluffy fur, and Vervain with their little fluttery wings held close around their shoulders. Ver also wears the lovely green scarf that Jaden had made for them earlier in the season, they wear it every chanc...

Vervain liked to keep busy, and loved to try new things, and so, in another attempt at finding uses for Jaden's yarn scraps, they decided they wanted to try their paws at making candles. The idea had come to them only after finding candle making supplies up in the attic. When the celestial had first discovered the tall tin forms and the sturdy wooden racks, they couldn't quite puzzle out what they would be used for, until they found a small supply of wicks. Ther...

After knotting a spare strip of cloth around their knee as an anchor, Vervain attached a safety pin with ten long strands of five different colors of yarn tied to it. Jaden had been happy enough to part with the scraps of yarn Vervain asked for, off cuts from different projects that they'd said were too short to be useful. Too short to be useful for Jaden, maybe, but Vervain had an idea that they would be perfect for. They sat back into the comfortable pillow pi...

Between the two of them Vervain was the one that enjoyed cooking the most. It wasn't hard to convince Jaden to help out with meals, they often made breakfast without even being asked. Vervain liked to cook so much that they would often be busy in the kitchen just for the joy they found in cooking. They made many things, more than the two of them could eat all on their own, but that was fine, breads and extra baked goods went to town with their excess fruits and ...

Vervain hummed as they worked, this was a common occurrence, they hummed as they fed the fyrefowl every morning, they hummed as they tended to the lallabaa (when Jaden wasn't taking care of them), they hummed while cooking dinner every night. Today's melody was something a little different, and so was the task beneath Vervain's paws. Something about the cooler weather and Jaden's enthusiasm about sowing and planting the autumn garden had sparked a little curiosi...

"Vervain?" Distantly, the celestial kitsu's voice called back, "Upstairs, Jaden!" Jaden climbed the stairs, two at a time, poked their head into the bedroom, and looked around. They tried again. "Vervain?" "Ah, I should have said, /up/ upstairs!" Vervain poked their head down from a ha...

Being on their knees in the dirt made Jaden almost nearly as happy as sitting at their spinning wheel for hours did. There was just something about the feel of rich earth and helping growing things that filled their heart with such joy. A few weeks prior, they had filled seed trays with soil, and sown as many root crop seeds and autumn veggie seeds as they could get their paws on. Onions and garlic, leeks. Leafy greens like spinach, various lettuces. Carrots, be...

It was another of those busy, busy Autumn days, the sky was clear but the air was crisp. Both Jaden and Vervain were out in the orchard, filling bushel baskets. They needed to get as much fruit off the trees as they could, before the heavier frosts came. A few days before, they'd had a very chilly night, and come morning, Jaden had noticed there was a lot more fallen fruit than usual. The fruits on the ground were mostly mushy, and they worried about bugs....

It was time, it was finally time, it was past time, /way/ past time. "Vervaaain!" Jaden called up the stairs, "If we don't go soon, they're going to run out of costumes!" "They are not going to run out of costumes," Vervain called back, from the top of the stairs, making their way down to the ground floor. They glanced around for a moment before meeting Jaden's pleading gaz...

Jaden made their way down the creaking wooden stairs of the house they shared with Vervain. It wasn't early, early, but it was still morning, they yawned, brushed their curls from their eyes. Of the two of them, Vervain was the early bird. Outside with the rest of the birds, letting them out of their coop, feeding the flock and collecting the eggs. Mmm, eggs. Breakfast. Padding into the kitchen, Jaden moved with pract...
