28. Your Moment of Zen

[crowsloveapples]

Everyone's got strange marks on their faces except for me. Maybe it's because I already have marks on my shoulders. Maybe everyone is becoming a +Anima like me! Can anyone fly yet? That would be nice. Amurui, do you have any extra marks

You can fly?

[Then, more as an after-thought to that somewhat surprised revelation-]

Thalassa-chan did mention wanting a pet - maybe we'll come by, later.

[crowsloveapples]

I can! I have wings!

Thalassa? She's really nice, she was gonna show me some magic sometime. You should, we're in the main barn on Captain Planet--just ask any of the farmers they know where we are!

[coughcoughshank]

That must be really neat! I don't think I've ever met anyone with wings.

She is! She's my little sister. We'll probably come together ♥

[crowsloveapples]

It is, and we're different! Monster and Kurayami have wings but theirs are really little so they can't fly. There used to be someone named Chosen here and he had wings. But not many of us.

Oh! So you're new too! I promised I'd show Thalassa around. You can come too!

I have planes on my face, but I don't think that means I can fly now. I haven't tried though.

[crowsloveapples]

Planes?

If you haven't tried yet, then how do you know?

[apileofrocks]

An airplane?

I guess I don't know for sure, but I don't even know how to try flying.

[crowsloveapples]

Airplane? What's that?

Well I guess you just...feel it. Inside. You let that feeling grow and suddenly you just know!

That's how it was for me anyways.

[of_mindelan]

I can only fly in the Wilderness. That's plenty for me. [She's been sick a few times. Min will never like heights.]

Do you take animals, too?

[crowsloveapples]

The wilderness is really strange! I turned into a real bird! It was different but I prefer being myself.

I do! Unless they're wild and belong outside instead of in someone's house. Like the giant birds or squirrels.

[of_mindelan]

What kind of bird?

There are too many dogs and cats for me to feed them all for long. Do you mind if I bring some to you? They'll be happier if they can be with owners who have time for them.

[crowsloveapples]

The really big ones! But if you find one I'm sure we can find someone to put them until they get better.

Sure! The shelter seems like it's getting bigger everyday! Youth was saying we should make it a real job but I don't know how to do that.

[kamishininoyari]

Well ain't you a lucky one. You sound like you're happy everyone's getting marked up. How cruel since it seems nobody wants them.

[feathered_earth]

He's not being cruel. Leave him be.

[kamishininoyari]

Oh, he isn't? My mistake then. He just seemed so happy in regards to everyone's misfortune. I suppose it's alright to let kids get away with being uninformed. You can't shelter him forever, though, Miss Krile.

[crimson_seeker]

Picking on children now, are you? Not exactly a fetching look on a grown man, I have to say.

[feathered_earth]

It's not the same thing as a +Anima mark--they mean something else, although it's confusing.

[ooc: I can't remember if he's told her about +Anima but it's relevent either way /fail]

meh i'm sure its come up by now lol /handwaves forever

[crowsloveapples]

Are you sure Krile? What else could they mean?

/jazz hands

[feathered_earth]

[There are some curlicue lines doodled as she tries to think of how to explain it.]

I think they're about bad things from people's pasts.

/threadjack

[kamishininoyari]

That's an interesting idea you got there, Miss Krile. What makes you think that?
