Very last drabble!
I'd like to thank anyone who has ever reviewed these. It means so much to me to know that people actually care and follow what I'm doing! HersheyChocolates101 in particular- I think I have a review from you for every chapter. YOU ARE FREAKING AMAZING! Really, though, I LOVE ALL OF YOU! I wouldn't have finished this without you!
If you're going to miss these, I'm thinking about doing another challenge by Regardless101- the Couple's Challenge. If you see something titled 'like fire and gasoline' and it's by me… well, check it out!
This last drabble is also a horary to Regardless' Character 100 challenge. She took on the Harvest Goddess… well, it seemed apt for me to as well.
25. Goodwill- Harvest Goddess/ Sephia (More AP/ToT)
Sephia had been a particularly excellent mortal.
She'd given away what she didn't need, paid respect to her elders, and laughed when people were trying to be funny. None of it had been easy; giving up an ancient old toy she used to love, or laughing at a particularly terrible joke- but she missed it. She didn't know why, but she did.
It was one of the only things she did miss about being a mortal; they were selfish, personally-inclined beings that often wanted more than they could have. They were dirty and forgetful- rather adorable, but lacking kindness. Though… they did know warmth.
The Goddess was cold. She was the warmest of the places immortals, but still cold. She missed the happiness of giving, the blessing of flesh-and-blood company. The knowledge that, though giving was hard, someone benefited.
Even goddesses needed goodwill to make them happy.
