Serenity (the pony)
So, a couple of months ago, I was chatting with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
naamah_darling about her fabulous custom made My Little Pony dolls, which she paints herself with her own designs and even new hair. She sells them on Ebay for reasonably understandably high prices, because they are really extraordinary and unique.
I casually mentioned that one day, when I could afford it, I'd love a custom pony for myself. The matter was dropped.
And then a week or so ago, on Facebook, Naamah mentioned on Facebook that she was sending me a package. Since I've been sending her care packages full of skin care and supplements, I figured it was something similar, like a thank you. I didn't realize how anxious and excited she seemed about my receiving the package.
A couple of days ago, the box arrived. I opened it up and found the card first, with a glittery dragonfly on the cover. I opened it and on the left it read:
"Funny you should talk about a custom..."
And my heart kind of skipped.
And on the right it read:
"It took me a while to figure out her name, but it turned out to be so simple once she told me.
Serenity.
I made her thinking of you start to finish. She's all yours. She'll be a friend who can always be there for you and remind you that you are never alone.
Hope you love her. <3"
And even before I pulled away the paper wrappings, I was crying. And when I had the pony in my hands, and I saw her flank symbol, I cried even harder, murmuring "Oh my gods, oh my gods, she did this for me, she made this for me, oh my gods, this is amazing, this is so beautiful, oh oh oh..."
Because I had seen a photo, on Naamah's Livejournal, months ago, of this pony being painted, and I had instantly been pulled toward it, wishing it could be mine...
And here she is.
Meet Serenity.

Every morning, I look directly at her when I wake up, and she makes me smile. It is a wonderful, beautiful thing. Honestly, I don't think I can express it in words. Just... incredible. Love you, Naamah.

I knew you'd love her. I felt so bad being like, "Ohhhh, let me finish up all this other crap, then we'll talk." And I was actually making this face:
like AS I PUSHED THE REPLY BUTTON. No exaggerating, that is pretty much the face I make. (But inside I was FILLED WITH GUILT. No, really, I felt bad that I had to lie by omission and be all "doop de doooo nothing to see here move along.")
*wags*
I'm so glad you love her. And I know how valuable the something to smile about thing is. That's pretty much why my two jackass boy cats are still lunking it around here, instead of on a farm for badly-behaved sled goats in Siberia or something. But they make me laugh every day, and that's a thing you can't put a price tag -- or an annoyance threshold -- on. (They were AWFUL all day yesterday, oh my GOD . . . then, right before bed, right before I went to put them out of the room, they tackled me and both wanted to snuggle at the same time and were all like "we luuv u!" Oh, you're sorry NOW. Furry, manipulative little bastards.)

And it's totally okay, because I HAD NO IDEA and it was a HAPPY SURPRISE and besides, you got to make THAT FACE.
Dude... I didn't even know that face EXISTED. Damn. I just thought there was the FUUUU face and the Troll Grin face and the Sad Troll face...
