A/N: ...And now I've started playing the game through again.


It hit them like an avalanche,
starting with small stones,
then building to large rocks
that crashed around them.

They lost their solid footing
as it rocked their world
with a force far stronger
than any they'd ever known.

It swept them up in the fall,
and, oh, how they did fall.

They landed in the ocean,
surrounded by emotions
so new and wild and deep,
and it overwhelmed them.

It was a struggle to float
amidst so much feeling,
but they treaded water
until things normalised.

They were lost at sea,
no way out to see.

They developed fins and gills
as they learned to adapt,
growing to love the wild deep
and all that came with it.

They both grew strong,
fuelled by joy and love,
so they swam those seas
side by side, together.

It became easy to swim,
and, oh, did they swim.
