first thing that came to shade was eerie. but she means it in the "wow I respect you" way, not the "you're creepy" way. also for some reason I can see her calling her something like "long ago iago" in a kind of sing-songy way ? like considering her accent I think it would work (I imagine her having trouble saying Iagos name tbh, more like "aaago" or "yago") so it would be almost like "long ago, ago" idk but it came to mind. also I can see her referring to Iago as "tongue" if she refers to Puck as "teeth", as in "sharp tongue" and "sharp teeth" bcuz she is kinda unnerved about Pucks teeth situation (going to Iago like... does he really have teeth in the back of his throat ???) and Iago seems like the more sharp witted (no offense Puck !!) of the two

neyvin holds out the bowl of soup towards shade. it's a thick stew, mostly root vegetables that wouldn't go bad and some lentils. "you saved philip's life today, undoubtedly." they murmur, sitting beside the other once he is sure they have accepted the offering of food. "and for that, thank you." he said, "not just from me, but the others as well." neyvin gives a warm smile.

“ i couldn’t help it, ” they begin. “ i let it get in. ” was it wrong? if they kept it out, they might have given themself to the shadows. “ the helpless optimism of spring. . . given the circumstances, i think we could all use its touch. ”

despite growing up in the underdark as she had, and despite the fact the sun still hurt her eyes (though since the tadpole it hurt them far less) fel did not like the dark. or, she did not like the kind of dark that the shadow-cursed lands wrought. the whole place made her feel increasingly nervous - the fact the whole of this tadpole issue seemed to be coalescing at moonrise made the drow anxious.
