SOLC6: Tanzi


With sunset-tinted scales and scattered grey spots, the desert landscape is funneled into one six inch, cold blooded creature. The feeling of sand tossed up, sideways, and through faraway lands can be found even in the big city of Denver. But even though the reptile beast embodies the harsh deserts, she is calm and composed. Her face is a diamond, the only impurities being her own delicate features. Two tiny nostrils at the front of the snout, balanced above the pink smile. A pair of rounded eyes in a dusky grey with a cracking coat of black. A pinkish ear on each side of the head alerts her to anything and everything around her. And when she’s unexpectedly lifted into the air above her there is nothing new noticed, except for the soft white belly.

"How do you know I'm mad?" Said Alice.
"You must be," said the Cat, "or you wouldn't have come here."
