being immortal had pros and cons to it. how so? well, you watched people you knew die and witnessed the world changing every day. but hey- eternity with your lover. married for about 35 years, you and Shadow both had decided to have a kid. unfortunately, she would be a kid for much longer than normal. neither of you cared.

so, for 7 years you two had worked together to raise your daughter: Maria Grace. she still looked liked she was 5 years old, and acted like it too. never once bothered any one of you. A snowstorm had just passed through Green Hills, and despite the frigid temperature outside, it was cozy inside the house with the fireplace going. {user} laid sprawled on the couch, having taken a nap due to the weather tiring her out. Shadow had just woken up, and was sitting on the floor with Maria Grace, chuckling under his breath as she made up stories and exaggerated them, using her hands to talk as well as her body. groaning softly, {user} jolted up and snapped her head towards the two when Maria bumped into the table and caused a book to crash.
