bad spin.

Human auras have a certain... cadence to them, as do the auras of Chimera Ants. Though of course there are individual differences between them, they tend to have uniform qualities as well; after all, all members of a species have at least some biological similarities even if their personalities develop separately.

The aura of the person approaching them is certainly human, but also certainly different. Kite scrunches their nose at the powerful wave of a teasing, almost joyous evil washing over them, Fear doesn’t factor into their distaste -- what Chimera Ants are truly afraid of humans? -- and yet they can still sense that this will be an unpleasant interaction.

Sometimes they find themselves restless, hungry even, with no way to deal with their cravings; the faces of their companions flash through their mind, reminding them not to even think about what their instincts tell them to.

And yet... it’s difficult. Kite would never admit it to Colt, who seems perfectly content living as humans do, and of course they would never admit it to the rest of his team for fear of scaring them. Sleepless days pass with no end in sight, and Kite often fantasizes in bursts of exhaustion about becoming humanity’s enemy, if only to quench their insurmountable hunger.

So Kite approaches Neferpitou, ironically the only being who can understand their plight -- considering that it is because of that being that Kite is in this plight in the first place.

Repost and fill out the form all about what your muse would/wouldn’t be brave enough to do. Note that some of these aren’t smart things to do, but in this case, bravery and risk are both included.

My muse would …

pítσu ís dєlívєríng α prєsєnt tσ @silencedwaltz!

it’s customary to leave presents for companions on this day. or so pitou has come to understand, through consumption of media and vague understanding of tradition. this “santa” figure, who does not exist, is said to come through the chimney. if this is celebrated, why should they not do the same?

pitou doesn’t fully understanding this urge themself. to give, without any desire to receive… it makes little sense. but the thought grew and grew as the day came nearer, and they eventually gave up on fighting it off.

to deny that they care for this person would be to deny a part of themself. how incredibly obnoxious. they set to work on making a gift, having little money of their own, and it was their understanding that kite would rather not receive a gift that had been stolen.

so it was that the young chimera ant would awaken the next morning to a wrapped box in the center of the floor. there’s a note, written to barely be legible, pitou’s handwriting more chickenscratch than anything.

to: kite

stay warm.

inside the box is something that may seem quite strange at first. the red yarn is crafted carefully, but it’s not a scarf or mittens or anything like it. in fact, it’s… a tail cozy, for kite’s tail, so that it won’t grow cold during the winter months. an odd gift, but a thoughtful one, particularly for the feline.

Material possessions are not particularly meaningful to them, hadn’t been even back during their (brief) stint of humanity. There’s nothing to Kite’s name currently, nothing tangible they will leave behind. Their former mentor hadn’t sent them a gift in, well... all the years they had known each other; and Kite’s team knew better than to try to sway them with objects.

So it is with some surprise that Kite finds the box, addressed to them. They blink once, twice -- not certain that the apparition on the floor is real. The handwriting is unrecognizable, not from a member of their team, Colt, or either Freecss.

Then --

Kite opens the box, attempting to be careful but still ripping the cardboard; their hands are far stronger than they are used to, even now. The fabric falls out, and Kite is curious for a moment. What is it? Clothes? But what does it even go on -- ?

“Oh. Tail.”

A pause.

“I forget about that, sometimes.”

No one’s around to hear the musing, of course, but Kite turns the fabric over in their hands, and can’t help but smile a bit at the gesture. It’s certainly strange, but that’s to be expected considering the (likely) source.

GOD(DES) OF   —  Intuition  ASSOCIATED WITH —  Premonitions, perceptiveness SACRED PLANTS — Blue iris SACRED STONES/GEM(S) —  Tiger’s eye SACRED ANIMAL(S) —  Wild dog COLORS — Blue & white SCENTS  — Rain, lake water

ACCEPTED OFFERINGS/WAYS TO HONOR:

Don’t give money. The offer might be accepted (but only exasperatedly). And definitely don’t offer any sort of plants or flowers that have been cut. The best way to honor him is to tend to the plants and wildlife growing around the shrine. It is said that if you try to appease him in such a manner, you may receive a warning about an upcoming tragedy or difficulty in your life. However, it is up to the person themselves to figure out how to avoid it.

GOD(DES) OF   —  Repentance ASSOCIATED WITH —  Self-reflection and self-forgiveness SACRED PLANTS — Thistle SACRED STONES/GEM(S) —  Obsidian SACRED ANIMAL(S) —  Rat COLORS — Red & violet SCENTS  — Earth, cooked meat

ACCEPTED OFFERINGS/WAYS TO HONOR:

There’s not much one can offer them in the way of physical objects. All that can really be offered is the strength of one’s spirit and the determination to make up for past mistakes. Ultimately it is up to the person offering their feelings how much they are willing to change and grow. The deity can sense the wavering of conviction and will decide for themselves whether they are willing to give you their blessings for the future.
