//: The Beginning
[[Type: Journal Entry]]
It all began a quiet morning last week after I had fed 'Mew and myself and decided to take a walk outside. It was an unusually warm day for December and I forced myself to make the best of it despite disliking the outdoors.
I opened my door and-- BAM! kicked over a lantern and fell on my face. It hurt like hell but luckily I didn't get much more than a bruise. The lantern, however, seemed unscathed in the least. I took it inside-- how did a paper-like lantern survive a kick from me?
Am I THAT weak?
I enjoy the lantern. It glows a bright golden color and it emits such a warmth... so warm. Makes me sleepy. I think I'll take a nap now.

//: Keep Me Warm
[[Type: RP Entry]]
It had been many cold, windy nights since Eve had taken the lantern in. She couldn't explain it, but the warmth it emitted filled her with a sense of happiness. It reminded her very much of a hot cup of chocolate after playing in the snow-- just, with less calories.
'Mew enjoyed sitting near the lantern all the time, opting to enjoy its glow even over the fireplace's neglected embers. Despite usually being a bit depressed when Eve would leave for work, the lantern had really cheered him up.
"I suppose we could go out to dinner," Eve suggested, her body lazily draped across her sofa and her hand clicking her remote control rapidly at the TV.
'Mew rolled over onto his back and yawned. "If we must. Too lazy to cook?"
"No, but I feel like Chinese food."
"Please, no more dumplings. Anything but that. Can we have steak?"
Eve hoisted herself up and contemplated the tastes of Chinese food versus steak. "Fiiine, we can have steak. But we're having Chinese next week!"
As the two of them neared the door, they realized the lantern was glowing even brighter than before. "'Mew, what did you do to it?"
"Nothing," 'Mew replied, then laughed. "I guess it'll miss us."
"I just hope it doesn't burn the house down!"
They put on their jackets (yes, 'Mew had one too) and left for the steakhouse.

//: Snowball Fight
[[Type: Journal Entry]]
Dear Journal,
Something real weird happened today and I'm not sure I like it. This lantern is still glowing, like it's got a lightbulb in it or something. I'm tempted to dismantle it.
Anyway, 'Mew and I were playing out in the snow today. We had a major snowball fight-- I mean, this was huge. Kids were coming out of the woodwork to help us out. I think one of them got a black eye though, and after that, everyone went home. I came home too, and sat near the lantern to warm myself up. But... well, it was weird. I was warmed, but the snow didn't melt.
It was really strange.
