(last revision for now. mostly edited according todual_avi's attempt at brutality. :]

alas, not quite an original story, but close enough to be on this journal rather than the other. it's my secret santa submission at ochiba.net, for OQM. i have interpreted OQM's characters [they are here and here]. lovely, aren't they? 

i have obviously taken liberties, and it's a loose art-to-words interpretation. i've adopted a soberer tone, for one, than the artwork.

on another note - i've also been a little enamoured with elephants lately, anyway, because of rachael yamagata's elephants. also, hemingway's hills like white elephants has appeared in the comments more than once, though i wasn't thinking of hills at all while i was writing this. and of course, i am no hemingway. :])

his bride and her elephant (or, that is that)


( Tonight, there is a white elephant on the plain, you're sure of it. )


love, cassie.
