    The noise that deer in Nara made was so cute and sassy lol. Also (pretty sure it was that same moss, if not something extremely similar) that I used to find as a kid when I’d go exploring the woods in the northeast US. I used to think that moss would be perfect little pine trees for faeries ☺️🧚🏼🌲🦌
