I watched NYT’s "Inside the Daily Life of a Live Streaming Star in China" years ago, and it still lingers like a ghost. Searching her name brings up nothing, as if she never existed. I just... Really hope she's okay today.

You’re still here.

But not in the way I need you to be.And I’m still here too.

But not in the way I used to be.Thank you.
Love, Dea.

Sometimes I think I see you. In dreams. In crowds. In the quiet loop of a memory I didn't mean to keep.
I never reach for you.I just watch you leave, over and over.There’s still space for you. Not on purpose.
It just... never got filled.

I keep dreaming that you'll come back.
Not as a reincarnation.
Not as a ghost.
Just… as if you forgot something and came home to get it.I find myself staring at the path we once knew so well.
I don’t walk it anymore.Even the woods feel quieter,
like they’re waiting for you too.

I hate that it’s a beautiful day.
I hate that the world has no shame,
painting the sky like this
while I try to remember
the exact sound you made
when you stretched in the morning.I look outside and it’s too bright.
Too alive.
I want the sky to grieve with me,
but it just… glows.And so I carry you with me,
not as a memory,but like a missing limb,
a part of me that’s no longer there,
yet still aches with every step.

Hello. These pages are not meant to be rushed. Please take your time, to rest with each page. and let each one sit with you a moment.Summer is cruel in its indifference,
the world bloomed the moment you vanished,
as if to mock me.

She was here. She was loved. And I will miss her forever.

paddelin :: dea @paddelin.bsky.social · 20/03/2025
And I hope that, wherever she is now, the snow is endless and untouched, waiting for her to roll and twist and cover the world in her joy. And when she is done, I hope there is a warm fire waiting Just for her.

paddelin :: dea @paddelin.bsky.social · 20/03/2025
A part of me will forever feel like I failed her. But I also know that she would never be able to see it that way. She knew only that she was loved, that she was wanted, that she belonged. She lived without doubt, without regret. She crashed through life with joy, reckless and full of light.

She was a diva who knew exactly what she wanted, and nothing in this world could convince her otherwise. She would sit in front of the fireplace, crying relentlessly until a fire was started. Then, as if nothing had ever been wrong, she would stretch out in front of it in absolute bliss.

Again and again, as if the snow was made just for her. Maybe it was. Maybe everything warm and soft and bright in this world was meant for Aida.

paddelin :: dea @paddelin.bsky.social · 20/03/2025
Winter was her favorite. The moment the first snowflakes fell, she was ready, bounding outside with the kind of reckless joy only she could manage. She would throw herself onto her back, paws in the air, twisting and rolling until the world was covered in her snow angels.

I used to joke, "Warning for flying Labrador," but no warning in the world could have prepared me for how much space she would take up in my heart. Or how empty that space feels now.

paddelin :: dea @paddelin.bsky.social · 20/03/2025
Aida was here. A storm in golden fur, a whirlwind of joy, a heart that beat at full gallop. She lived as if the whole world was meant for her—every hand meant to pet her, every space meant to be filled with her warmth.

i just want the world to know that she was here. Aida was here and she was loved
