Void Rift (rp) - Intermission

There are books of folktales, rulers, legendary warriors, and accounts of battles spanning eons.

"Shadow, do not fear. I seek to keep you hidden from those who hunt Milla."
"And me?"
"By relation."
Sophie sighs.

 

"Ooooo." She picks a book from the legendary warriors area.

 

Lian stays hidden, not reforming.

 

I take a few seconds to look around, seeing if there's anything that could make her fly.

Crystal tries to move it upwards, creating a pillar of earth under the tentacle.

 

There's a list of hero figures, ranging from mythical warriors to stealth operatives.

Sophie looks over.
"Lian, I'm sorry. Peridot isn't programmed with emotions, so he can't understand that he insulted you."
"I state what I note."
"I swear to the gods you need a little reprogramming."
"I would never allow that."

Her wings are healed, but there's not much that'd give her more energy.
The tentacle moves, pushed somewhat easily. It's heavy, but compared to its size, deceptively light.

 

Just to make sure, I check her wing size in proportion to her body.

Crystal gets the idea of raising her tentacle a meter off the ground using the pillar, and then just collapsing the pillar, making the tentacle drop.

 

They seem appropriately sized, but with her scale it's hard to tell.


The tentacle slowly floats back down, waving slightly in the unfelt wind as it goes.

 

A red eye appears in the darkness, looking at Sophie.

 

"Come on, Lian, shake hands with my sibling."
"If a handshake would make him feel less perturbed, I will comply."

 

A hand extends from the darkness, offering a handshake nervously.

 

Perry accepts the handshake, grip awkwardly loose.
"I do not wish to crush your hand like I did in my last handshake."

 

"I-I can j-just reform it, a-at least in darkness, so d-don't worry about i-it." Lian says nervously from the dark.

 

"I must take care, or bios fear me. I am meant to protect some and kill those seeking to harm those I protect."

 

"A-Are you protecting Miss Sophie?" Lian asks.

 

"No, but I have no qualms with her. Or you."

 

"O-Oh. Ok." Lian says nervously.

 

"Relax. I seek no harm to my siblings."

 

Lian nervously forms from the darkness, he seems rather terrified of Peridot.

 

Peridot pays his fear less attention.
"I tried to pull them away. Lian, I request you be more cautious in the future."
"He's only a servant. No need to pressure him."

 

"U-Uhm...y-yes, Sir, I shall." Lian says submissively.
