[ Being in the sky should mean a nice and bright full face of sunshine in the morning, right? ]

[ Well, maybe not this morning, seeing as there are bright purple glittery butterflies all over the windows, each one with a wingspan of a foot. Apparently the brief rainstorm sighted yesterday has blown them up from the forest below, and they seem intent on getting into HQ as quickly as possible, ducking away into dark places when they can get in through the breaches that still need patching on the lower levels. Those that're still outside start to smoke a little when the sun hits their wings. The smoke shifts and changes colors as it rises, going through the entire rainbow of colors before whisking away. ]

[ A familiar, tobacco-y smell to any habitual smokers... ]

[ But rainbow tobacco butterflies aside, it's quite a lovely day in the sky, Thusia. How you doin? ]

...I meant both.

...

I hate this world, but it is preferable to spending an eternity in stone as my kin did.

[rootless]

[...nods.]

[ofstormandsea]

...I'm sorry again, for that.

[ Motioning to his neck, awkwardly. ]

[rootless]

Like I said, it's fine.

[ofstormandsea]

It isn't.

You are likely more resilient than most creatures here. I would not expect humans to understand so readily.

[rootless]

Humans can be unexpected on that front at times. So, what are you going to do?

[ofstormandsea]

[ ...lowers her gaze. ]

I... don't know. I need a steady source of food, I can't let this happen again, but-- the people here--

[rootless]

The people here?

[ofstormandsea]

You don't think they would retaliate?

[rootless]

I don't know. I haven't been here long enough.
