16th Memory [Action]

[whats_a_sneeze]

[When she wakes up, she recalls darkness and a definite lack of something to reach back for. The Malnosso had been kind enough to leave her the ability to talk and understand, but... it didn't really matter, considering she had no idea what the Malnosso were. Or what these strange green things were. Or what she was.

No, wait. She was a Sayo. She was

[... oh, some kid in the woods. Man, that's annoying. She better not scare away that deer he's planning to swoop in and eat, because that would be a major pain.]

[whats_anything]

[... Horror of horrors.

She's not sure what you are, but there are some things that never change with or without memory: you are bigger and you have a mouth that is bigger. She ducks away behind some brush, unsure about how to approach this.

WORDS, HOW DO YOU WORK. Not like she has any memory of USING them toward someone else.]

...u-um...

[dragonjack]

[Oh for crying out loud, she's going to make a bunch of sound. He turns to her and puts a finger to his mouth in a shushing motion, as if he's HUMAN.]

Shush!

[whats_anything]

['Shush', she's not familiar with, but the motion's readable enough. She crouches down, waiting to see what all the shushing was about. What reason did they have to be quiet? Noise is fine to her, she thinks...]

[dragonjack]

[Okay, Jack has this down to a science. He stalks around Sayo just a bit, rounding his way out from in front of her... and then spits out a small ball of fire at the deer. It catches on flames, but before it can be ruined completely, Jack quickly bounds over and stomps it into the ground, putting it out of its misery and snuffing out the flames.

Ahh, lunch at last!]

[whats_anything]

[...

Um.

Not sure how to feel about this, Horner.]

[dragonjack]

[After slurping up some charred deer, he turns back to Sayo and frowns.]

What are you doing out here anyway?

[whats_anything]

...

I don't know.

[Very honest and to the point, this one.]

Should I know?

[dragonjack]

Seems like you should, kid. You ain't a New Feather, are you?

[whats_anything]

I don't know.

[Sensing a pattern.]

What's a New Feather?

[dragonjack]

See those wings on your back? If those are new to you, then those are new feathers you've got. That makes you a New Feather.

[whats_anything]

... [Hmmm.] How do I tell if they're new to me?

[dragonjack]

... seriously? Did you have them yesterday?

[whats_anything]

....

What's 'yesterday'?

[Seriously.]

[dragonjack]

... you hit your head pretty hard, didn't you?

[whats_anything]

[hesitantly touches said head]

I did? I don't think I hit anything...

Why do you think so?
