A Soft Mothy Morning

 
 

Kael found this big moth in the grass this morning that was on it's last natural legs, and it spent it's last few hours on this earth being the "BEST PET I COULD EVER THINK OF!!!"
Four hours. It sat on his hand or shoulder or arm for FOUR HOURS, all of which he spent being quiet and calm so as to not scare it off. Amazing. Then suddenly it fell off and landed on it's back, most decidedly dead. Alas. We all got over it quickly but that moth should know that there was actually a moment of tears at it's passing, something I'm betting very few moths get to experience.
