Re: day 21

[terraria]

( well, he's going to perch up and gently brush his hair back, then forward, just to make sure that the oils in his hair and scalp are properly distributed. yeah, perci is that kinda beauty queen. )

I think it feels prickly in a good way. A bit like when your leg or arm falls asleep.

[mykidisthebest]

[he is not used to anyone doing this for him; he sits up straight, and very still so he doesn't mess up Perci's work]

Like when your leg falls asleep? Really?

Re: day 21

[terraria]

Kind of? It makes me shiver some, anyway. Like goosebumps, I think they're called?

Not that I know why they're called that...

Re: day 21

[mykidisthebest]

I don't know why they're called that either.

[goes quiet for a brief moment, focusing on the feel of the brush in his hair]

...It does feel tingly.

Re: day 21

[terraria]

Hehehe, right, right?

( his wings flutter. )

I love that feeling. ( he puts the brush down just to do some light fussing with his fingers. ) There, done.

[resists the urge to mess up his own hair]

Thanks, Perci. That felt nice. Want me to finish yours?

Re: day 21

[terraria]

Oh, that's alright. I know how much of a pain it is to brush it all, I won't actually impart that punishment on you.

This time.

[pffft]

You make it sound like there's going to be a next time! What if I'm well-behaved forever?

Re: day 21

[terraria]

You wouldn't have turned into a Lily if you were well-behaved. We're all disobedient here.

[consider this statement very seriously]



Ananke is a good kid.

[that's the only one]

Re: day 21

[terraria]

... give it time. If when the next ritual rolls around he doesn't try to find a loophole in the rules of the game, then we can consider him an outlier.

Re: day 21

[mykidisthebest]

He is still pretty new. I was kind of hoping that the rituals would die down enough that he wouldn't have to find any loopholes in them, though.

Re: day 21

[terraria]

It's been too quiet... well, outside of interpersonal matters. I have no faith in this place's safety.

Re: day 21

[mykidisthebest]

There's no safety other than what we make ourselves. But on that front, I feel like Lily has been doing pretty good. The barn is secure, at least. We can...hope for the best and plan for the worst, yeah?

Re: day 21

[terraria]

Mm. That's the plan, and that's why I have so many medicines at the ready.

I still have more forest trips to make for that, but most medicines should last around a year... ( streeech. ) So at least I can be more leisurely.

Re: day 21

[mykidisthebest]

Maybe once we finish stockpiling we can relax more often.

[more nap times...the pipe dream]
