maybe this was
a load-bearing wall

Each bearing
a large load

Lambda ruffed, then snorted.
"What? Someone was trying to cut off your tail!?" Totemo said. "What a weird dream!"
She reached over and stroked Lambda's fur. Then they cuddled up together in the bed and went back to sleep. (4/4) #wss366

Then she woke up, panting, in a cold sweat.
Nearby, she heard little yelps. She looked over and saw Lambda in the grips of a nightmare, her nose and legs twitching as she barked in her sleep. Lambda gave an enormous jerk and woke up.
"Were you having a bad dream too?" Totemo asked. (3/4) #wss366

"There aren't any long-horned beetles either," thought Totemo, now completely unsettled. "These are invasive species!"
An assassin bug appeared, followed by a stink bug. A whole insect #parade passed along the branch, all marching along in time to a song she began to hear in her head. (2/4) #wss366

Totemo Isogashii was walking through the woods, listening to a strange sound. Then she saw it: a tree cricket on a branch.
"That's strange," she thought. "There's no tree crickets on Holufinia."
The tree cricket marched along the branch and then it was followed by a long-horned beetle. (1/4) #wss366
