The Faun and the Human

Summary:

Jasper was taking his normal midnight stroll, lanterns illuminating the path, stars shining through the barren branches. Their breath came out in white puffs, akin to smoke from a fireplace. Icicles hung from the branches of the trees and the cliffs of lampposts. Ice coats the dirt and leaves on the ground.

I walk down the path, my boots grabbing the slippery ground while my cheeks and ears redden from the cold. My warm breath warms my cheeks, fleeting quickly, cold gripping it again. I cup my hands and blow a breath into them warming them up.

I stumble and fall into a down into a hole, plunging myself into darkness.

Chapter 1: Chapter 1

Chapter Text

I stumble out of another hole, ungracefully landing on dewdrops and green grass. I pull my face up out of the grass, wiping the water and mud off my face. I look around and see flowers blooming, and almost bright green leaves on trees. What! It’s winter!

I look around shocked at the life surrounding me. I see birds and brightly-coloured butterflies and rabbit-like creatures nibbling on the grass. I look behind me to see what I came out of but it’s nothing. Nothing! How do get back? Do I want to get back? Maybe. No.

“Well if I am stuck here I might as well explore,” I say out loud to myself, making the rabbit things glance at me.

I stand up fully, knees wet from kneeling on the grass- my phone! I have a phone! I pull my cellphone out of my pocket and there is no service. Oh fuck, I couldn’t leave even if I wanted to.

I then realized that there was sweat dripping down my back, oh yeah, I’m wearing winter clothes. I shed the t-shirt and pants I was wearing underneath my heavy winter jacket and pants. I feel the cool air hit my skin and I let out a pleasured sigh, as I go to wipe off my sweat.

Well, I guess I should explore, maybe find a place to-WHERE WILL I SLEEP?

I am not sleeping on that. Not now, not ever. I will find a cabin or a house or even a piece of cloth I can fit on. I will not sleep on the dirty, muddy, wet, disgusting ground! I quickly walk east, set on finding a place to sleep.

I storm out of the clearing, the rabbit-like creatures stepping out of my way, unbothered.
