*He had probably stayed later at the workshop, then he should have but he had a deadline to meet and he wanted to get it done.*
*There were three lights in the room, the glow coming from the kiln, the glow coming from themselves and and the glow coming from the glass topaz was working with.*
*She brings her hand up to rub her eyes from the mound of glass, she was shaping into what seemed to be a horse.
*Once he was done rubbing his eyes, he could have sworn and he saw something move in the darkness, he blinks, and he sees it again, something swirling*
*They call out, and what was ever moving stopped and a voice echoed back*
*The voice had an irish accent*
*Paz leans forward his eyes narrowing*
Oh, you know, just somebody who shares a mutual friend!
*there's the clicking of heels as a girl wearing black and purple emerges from the shadows*
Mutual friend who is this?
You know Mal? Did they they hurt you because I don't think they're going to listen to me
No? Why would my own sibling hurt me?
*Paz's voice died in their throat, before they cleared it*
*They're anger boiling at the edges of their voice, and they seem to glow slight , slightly , bright*
*There some kind of sick satisfaction in the edges of the teenager's voice*
And you're the one I replaced correct?
*Her hand were burning into her desk*
So I'll take that reaction as a yes
You know, they don't care about you anymore, right
*Paz had went silent, a small bit of fire forming in their hand*
Oh i'd be careful where you throw out if I were you
*Athena gestures to the sculptures around them*
I mean you throw that slightly in the wrong direction and boom everything shatters , and there's no else surround to blame for it , but you!
*The fire in their hands started to dissipate*
*He was choking back tears, she could hear it in their voice*
I'll go but not before you know
*the little spider steps back into her shadows and disappears, leaving Paz with shaky breath*
