CAST UPON HER, YOUR LONGEST DAY ──────── & she will not leave you. Heavenly remains, the long eye of the sun, a basket that sways, holding all that she may. EMPTIED OF BREAD, containing working tools ... a hammer, nails, the ongoing list. A TALLY OF AIDING THINGS, bandages & cleansing, medicines made by her own palm, these sorts of things. ALL FOR THE ONE DUTY SHE CAN DO, aid those in need.

A WOLF COMES, WEARING SHEEP'S CLOTHING, THE CURIOUS CAT, not far behind her frame ; those cyan that seek, the desire to understand all, fingers of abominations & wailing. FLAMES PEER ONTO THE GALAXY OF WONDERING, OF PONDERING FORCE ... does he ever sonder ?

FOOT FALLS SLOW, sleeves shudder in the winds & she stands before him, human, human, human ( fleeting, ephemeral, ethereal, emotions eternal. ) NAILS CAKED BY EARTHEN THINGS, scratches anew, crimson asunder, fabrics dirtied ; forehead pressed with bandage slowly going red ( the lament left behind by a wife who wept violently for her husband, clawing at her, hitting her with things in their home, blaming her / she will hold onto that blame, let it fester, child of the river, for she has marked the name of the elderly man onto her heart. ) THIS ... IS ALL SHE CAN SEEM TO DO IN THIS WORLD, embrace the dying & ease their end, sing to them a song of renewal & rebirth, oh, to begin again, you tender soul.

HE SPEAKS & IF SHE HELD LESS HEART, SHE COULD LAUGH but, she smiles, in a thousandfold unspoken thing ( in a heart carrying much, things never unveiled. ) ❛❛ I don't think I would make good poetry material. ❜❜ SHE WONDERS IF A POEM HERE WOULD BE SIMPLY MOCKING, calling her a hero, a martyr, singing of her failures ... she almost deserves those insults.

AMONG HER HIDDEN SMILE, SHE EXTENDS HER HAND, callused, scar spoken & dirty fingers held onto him, for him to take ( she can only offer this, even if he lays forth rejection. ) ❛❛ Come on, let's go back. You must be getting hungry, right ? ❜❜

Well, it's not as if you aren't used to people looking at you with distain! At least she doesn't do that. No one understands your goals like you do, so you don't expect them to look at you with anything resembling kindness.

Right now is different. Having a hand offered to you is a rarity! Perhaps from one of the younger wizards... they'd have you their hand, but if a hand were pointed towards you from any of the older wizards, you are sure it'd be a threat. A threat on your life... Life is fleeting! Even if wizards like you, there are so many of you who slipped through the cracks of time. No one will remember many of them in some years. Time is tricky like that.

Even the sage will slip through the cracks far faster then any others would. Yet, despite that! Despite you can't remember his face, you remember how he would jump when you appeared in front of him, or how he struggled with understanding anything about magic; how the previous sage desperately tried to create anything resembling the food from his home for a form of comfort. He was an "adult", yet he still wanted to be comforted like a child.

You are sure that Koto is the same!

❛ Nuh uh! Yer mine~! ❜ You snatch her hand up quickly, your other hand finding it's way to her waist. She is a bit shorter then you, but not much shorter then someone you can't quite remember correctly... but you think this is familiar. The feeling of the ground under your feet is gone rather quick. You are sure that the sage as never danced like this before, let alone without her feet touching the ground! Yet you can't help but do something that is far more thrilling. You won't let her fall, you'd never let anyone fall. Even if you curiosity as resulted in the death of many, you have little interest in the death of others. In fact, you want to see others smile, even now.

❛ Ahh, now you are shaking me! ❜ You laugh gleefully as the smaller girl uses all of her strength to shake you. Well, you can't reasonably show her what an actual body would do if it were to POP, that would be way to gruesome... and anyways, your body would turn to stone? So that really wouldn't be very fun! Instead you ponder and come to a good conclusion. ❛ Well, if I were to pop, it'd probably be something like this! ❜ And with a utterance of your spell you disappear from her hands and fireworks explode from the location you were just at. Sparkling and glimmering as they pop and sputter out of existence just as quickly as they had been there.
