living in the countryside really strikes the fear of god into you at the most random moments. you’ll just make eye contact with a cow or stare for too long into a brook and all of a sudden you’ll think something like “these are old bones and i am merely a passing occupant” and then you have to go and put the kettle on to cope

the hare staring at me from across the field: which one of your lives is this?

“Speakers of Anishinaabemowin never had to be told: “Respect Women”, “Respect Elders”, “Respect Children” because it is fundamental and built-in to the language itself. “Ikwe” (ick-WAY) *woman* is connected, even in its sound, to Aki (AH-kih) *Earth*. Both are life-givers, due the same amount of reverence and respect, and mothers of the future. The word for Old Woman, Mindimooyehn (MINN-dih-MOO-yayn), actually breaks-down to “One that holds it all together.” The foundation of a family. Old Man, “Akiwenzii” (AH-kih-WAYN-zee), literally means “Earth Caretaker.” (Aki, Earth, Wen (such as found in ganawen) ‘to take care of’). The word for Elder, Gichi Ayaa'aa (Git-chi Ay-YAH-aah), itself means “Great Being.” Our word for Child, Abinoojii (uh-bin-NOON-jee), describes a spirit that was specifically placed here. Abin (sits in a certain place/placed here) and Jii (in relation to spirit). A spirit that’s been specifically and purposefully placed here. The values are built into the language. And it’s Beautiful!”

         ❝ uh, sorry. my father said there were FEDERATION prisoners here, and… ❞  vira’ter trails off, stealing his nerves and taking a couple steps closer to the occupied cell,  ❝ what did you do, exactly ? ❞

     ah. the child worked up the courage to come speak to him at last. chakotay opens his eyes, pulling his head away from the wall  (  and correcting his posture a bit  )  to look at vira. he’s nervous  ---  chakotay can’t blame him for it, he would be, too. with a small sigh, he answers the question, keeping his voice soft.

               ❝  for such a big station, word gets around. my crime is i am apart of the maquis. do you know anything about them  ?  ❞

             ❝  yes, actually. there is, ❞  chakotay spares a glance at tuvok as he continues.  ❝  to keep an eye out instead of getting comfortable in a sector of space neither of us know.  ❞
