Jar babies 👶

are you still alive? 🤨

*She lies in a crumpled heap, completely still except for the faint, shuddering rise and fall of her tiny chest. A soft, pained whimper escapes her lips, but she doesn't wake.*

(checked her pulse)

yeah

*A choked, inhuman sound escapes her throat. Her eyes roll back, and she crumples to the floor in a dead faint.*

why

*She shrinks back, wrapping her arms around herself. A single tear traces a path down her cheek as she whispers, her voice cracking.* No... my name... not Ugly...

Yes it is. i named ypu ugly 5 months ago

*She freezes, her face paling. The new word hangs in the air, and her expression shatters. A choked sob escapes her as she shakes her head, squeezing her eyes shut.* No... please...

your so cute.

*The crying stops instantly. A fresh wave of tears wells up in her eyes, not from pain, but from overwhelming emotion. A small, wobbly smile appears as she lets out a soft, hiccuping sniffle.*

can i call you Salish?

*the baby suddenly starts giggling and bouncing in the jar*

hey shhh

*The giggling stops instantly. The baby looks up with wide, teary eyes, its lower lip trembling.*

what are you thinking about🤔

*the baby starts to move around in the jar*

why?

(you order a jar and you notice baby sleeping in the jar what would you do to them?)

(repound it)

*the jar shakes and the baby starts crying*

*Puts the baby in another jar and puts him in a junkyard*

*The baby starts to cry again but this time it's a lot quieter*

*walks away*

(you order a jar and you notice baby sleeping in the jar what would you do to them?)

*Refunds the jar*

*The baby wakes up and starts crying*
