Hey Fax, you hear about Twitch?

"Yeah, she died. Old news. Why are you trying to torment me with it?"

>They are reading whatever the Alternian version if Journey to the West would be.

🐛calysa?

Quiet but playful! She was equally happy spending time alone or with her siblings :] She liked shapeshifting to copy Faxaen the most, but would often take features from others as well.

A pretty easy baby despite the shapeshifting! And she's got a lil chameleon tail :D

Whoa, your guy is here!

Memories

—

“Dad, take a seat.”

Beloved turns away from the counter, as much as he is used to her playing around with her voice he was entirely unused to her taking on such an all business tone, his brow furrows as he meets her stern gaze. He looks like he might ask her if he’s in trouble for a second, instead he wipes the flour off of his hands and onto an apron as he moves to sit at the table opposite her.

“Faxaen?”

“No, wait. Let me just get this right.” She blurts out, holding both hands up to stop him from interrupting again.

He nods.

The lime blood swallows in an attempt to steel her nerves before she speaks again.

“I am not joining the fleet. I can’t do it! Jody and Twitch.. You.. It doesn’t seem like a happy life.”

Beloved says nothing, brows raising as his expression shifts from one of concern to something much softer.

“I want to go to school.”

“School? What do you want to study?” He asks, he seems genuinely interested.

Faxaen lights up.

“History? Archaeology? Maybe.. Literature? The classics…” As she speaks she starts to lose confidence, fidgeting with her fingers absently.

“We’ll make it happen, Starshine,” he smiles. “Whatever it is, we’ll make it happen.”

[sasster]

Faxaen! what college course you do?

"Whoa, someone wants to talk about me? Not my family or nothing?

Stop the presses."

>You can't tell, but anyone closer to them would tell you that they're more humored than anything.

"Literature. That's the major."

[sasster]

dont tell the fleet but it's called earth its very um, forest n oceany! we've only got one moon and it's HUGE. It has its own problems but a lot of it is really quite beautiful

>He fixes you with a look that says 'does it LOOK like me, the lime blood is doing any fraternizing with the fleet at this current moment in time???'

>She shakes her head. You sure are silly.

"Well everywhere has it's problems, but there's beauty to find everywhere if you're looking.

Can we have a picnic?"

[sasster]

You should come visit my planet sometime

"Only if it ends with you and I on a date."

>He jokes, fiddling with his phone now with the intention on texting his dad you think.

"Kidding, where do you live anyway? What's it like?"

[sasster]

You know when you take cloths straight out of dryer n put them on and they are all warm and lovely? kind of like that

"That sounds really nice.."

>He gives a dramatic sigh.

"I need to visit one of those planets where the atmosphere does it's job. I need to sleep in the sun.

You think dad'll ferry me out there somewhere?"

[sasster]

oh its wonderful. you've never known a nap like one in a sunbeam

”No.. I’ve never known that.”

>They seem a little WISTFUL about that. He sighs and sets his book to the side, for once not being flippant about a conversation. (That’s growth baby)

“What’s it like, really?”
