Lunamor she/her Posted February 13 Report Share Posted February 13 1 minute ago, Weaver of Lights said: “Yeah…that’s what I meant. I tend to make other people uncomfortable too. But, well, you haven’t made me uncomfortable, you seem very nice.” His Gift started morphing in his hand, becoming different shapes, then extending above his palm in a spiral pattern. Jenny smiled at Edgars words, then smiled even more as his Gift morphed into a mesmerizing pattern. She wondered why that was what he apparently needed at the moment. Jenny carefully tapped it to see if that made it do anything interesting. Over Edgar’s shoulder, she noticed a kid at the other Hephaestus table looking at her, then down at the table’s new carving, then back at her. She must’ve appreciated her art! Jenny waved at her, grinning. Quote The kid is actually angrily glaring at her, for reference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it intelligent? It didn’t seem like that was an entirely wanted behavior. She barely registered Edgar’s next words. ”Hmm? Oh, ok.” Odd that Edgar was apologizing. She cheerfully waved at the guy anyways. She was pretty sure that it was rude to not wave at someone.

That could explain some things. ”How do you know when someone appreciates it?” Jenny paused for a half second, then continued on. ”You don’t need to answer that. I’ve tried to read books that answer that question, but do a poor job of understanding them. People haven’t had much luck explaining it to me either, although they’re normally pretty angry when they do that.” She decided to attempt to change the subject. ”How’s being a Hephaestus kid?” 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess it mostly just takes practice to see how they’re feeling.

Her face immediately brightened. ”That’s the bird I reanimated today!” With much difficulty, she restrained herself from trying to pet it. She didn’t want it to disappear again. “It’s so accurate…” She doubted that her carving was enough to allow for it to create such a spot-on replica. That meant it had to have read her mind. Either that, or Edgar had been spying on her. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He held it out. “I think it was meant for you, not me.” Jenny carefully took the bird, then held it up in front of her face. She inspected the finer details, impressed. It was just as cute as she remembered. Ever so gently, she pet its head. The metal’s coolness felt exactly like that of a corpse. “It’s lovely! Thanks for showing me the bird again, Gift.” She wasn’t sure if it could understand language, but thanked it just in case. 1 minute ago, RoyalBeeMage said: Quote I’d be good with that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slowly, the gift shifted into a… The Gift shifted into a small replica of a cat. It was a mangy thing, missing one eye and parts of its ears. The tail swooshed, all puffed up. She swore she could hear purring, although that might have been her imagination. ”Johnathan…” It had been forever since Jenny had last seen her beloved cat. He’d died of old age when she was young. She missed him so much. She’d tried to fix him, but… Remember, Jenny. You need to remember. Skeletal hands reached up from the dirt. Dragged her cat away. Her father told her no. Said he was old. Said she was going too far. The little girl cried. The little girl yelled. The little girl was angry. Remember her. A kind woman approached the little girl. She tried to speak. The little girl screamed. Remember. Jenny’s eyes opened wide and began to glisten with tears. “I didn’t- I-“ REMEMBER. Jenny shut her eyes tightly, sending the welled-up tears rolling down her cheeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
