She played in color. She played in paint. She painted the backdrops for the productions. She painted the props that sat on the stage or rested in the actors' hands. She painted the stage itself, the matte black of so many past productions long abandoned. She painted her nails, her claws, herself. She got it on her fur. She got it on her clothes. She got stripes over her ears and polka-dots on her nose. She painted her dreams, those serene and idyllic landscapes interrupted by hyperblack squares, unexpected and unexplained holes in the world that depicted a nothing-ness, a missing-ness, a not-there-ness that slid easily between the border of absurd and unnerving.

They can be stupid and cruel and absolutely make poor decisions, but if you give them agency and autonomy, maybe we would stop fucking around quite so much, since they are the ones who, more often than not, are going to find out. Build wisdom in kids and get some wise fucking adults in turn.
