The weather was starting to look up. At least, a little bit. It wasn’t so cold outside and the sun was peeking through the clouds more often than not. Of course it was possible for another cold front to move in and dump more snow, but Ryan wanted to remain optimistic. Spring would be here soon! And with spring came new beginnings, new life, and plenty of color!
And there was a definite deficiency of color lately. For the past few months, everything had been either dead or dying, white or brown. It was awful. But color would come. And so would plenty of new things for Valkyrie to see. Flowers! Oh, flowers would come! The roses would come back. The wild grasses would grow tall again. Ryan simply could not wait.
But for now everything was dull and drab. They would have to deal with it for a few more weeks. In spirit of the upcoming change, Ryan decided to get out her small sewing kit. Except she wasn’t planning on making any garments. Instead, the Inferni woman took out a small pairs of scissors. Valkyrie sat anxiously at Ryan’s feet as she raised the metal to her shoulder. With a soft snip, a lock of her hair fell to the ground. "Like this?" She asked, cutting another section of hair. "Shorter, mumma," Valkyrie cried back, grinning with excitement as she watched the hair fall.
