007 ✞ [VIDEO]

[unetrustworthy]

[Somebody's in better spirits than she has been since...well...almost since she first arrived in Keelai.  Spending time around her newly-hatched Turtle baby had that effect on a young girl.]

[She was even smiling.]

[Yet there was a faint hesitation behind the smile, and Midii side-eyed something just off screen several times before speaking.]

Not that I'm not grateful for the gifts...but...um...how do I say this?

I've never carried anything made of magic before.  I'm...not sure I would be the best person to have it.  I'm not even sure how to use it.

[Unspoken sentiment: she's slightly afraid of it.]



((ooc: In addition, the following individuals will have received a small package from Midii around Christmastime: Kyle, Eponine, Monet, Bean, Jack, Frank, Jor-El, and Damian.  The girls will receive a lovely wooden jewelry box with a secure key lock, and the boys will receive a small wooden chest...with the exception of Damian, whose chest will be locked not by a simple key, but with an intricate puzzle he'll have to solve in order to get inside.  Obviously custom-made))

Oh. [Bean should have remembered Jack has that problem with some people. He himself couldn't see him for a time.]

Well, knowing Keeliai, there are bound to be other people who can fly here. Maybe one of them could teach you?

The girl I was helping to take care of my Turtle Egg with said she knows somebody. She promised to ask for me.

That's good. You shouldn't be afraid of your gift; it's probably the last thing the Emperor did for us.

[unetrustworthy]

I never said I was afraid.

[justlittle]

Hesitant, then.

[There he goes again, saying the wrong things.]

[unetrustworthy]

[A pause. She thought about it.]

...fine. Hesitant.

[Agreement.]

There's nothing wrong with being cautious around something that could be dangerous.

[Slightly defensive.]

[justlittle]

No, you're right. But you're pursuing a safe way to explore the charm, so you're being just as cautious as you need to be.

video

[unetrustworthy]

No more, no less.

[justlittle]

I wish you luck with your charm. Let me know how it turns out.

video

[unetrustworthy]

I will.

Thank you. And enjoy your gift.

[With that, she quietly ends the conversation by disconnecting her feed]
