delivery; 10/1

[sylphystia]

[There's a small package waiting for Stefan in his room. It contains the following:

x a slice of marrons glacés cake
x an assortment of salted chocolate truffles
x several candied strawberries on sticks.

There's no nametag or letter attached, but there's a text message coming through later that night.]

text; 10/1

[sylphystia]

it's for you.

for patching me up.

[stefanged]

Thank you. You really didn't have to, though. :)

I'm just glad I could've helped in whatever way I could.

[sylphystia]

you helped the Shepherd

[And that's really all that needs to be said.

Actually, no.]

smiley face?

wow this got lost

[stefanged]

Smiley face!!

I would've helped Sorey regardless. He's my friend, and by association, that means I'd do everything in my power to help you too.

it's k!

[sylphystia]

I don't understand

I have to use the voice function.

is there a picture?

[Stefan is too nice, but at this point he's resigned to the fact that people like him exist.]

[stefanged]

Oh, wow, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have assumed.

Yeah, there's a little picture of a person smiling. I'm guessing it's transcribed as "smiley face."

i was in such a rush that I fucking forgot my html there, im sorry LMAO

[sylphystia]

[That's... actually kind of cute.]

it's fine. I don't go around advertising it. I'm blind but that doesn't mean I can't tell what's going on

[He knows by people's reactions to him that seraphim don't show up on video. However...]

is there one with a hat?

OH i assumed we'd switched to voice....

[stefanged]

Your hearing, right? Sorey mentioned something about that.

[More specifically, he mentioned the wind, but that seems a little odd to mention straight off the bat.]

Of course. [|:) Or, "smiley face with hat."

1/3; nah, I would've put text --> voice |D sorry about the confusion!!!

[sylphystia]

no, not hearing. feeling. I read the wind

[Well, that's... something of an explanation.]

2/3

[sylphystia]

smiley face with hat

3/3

[sylphystia]

did it work?

[stefanged]

I think so!

[No. Stefan's too polite to say otherwise.]

But that's really neat. Sorey also said that you could sense things like how many birds are in a nest?

if any of this needs to be changed, let me know! I just went off google.........

[sylphystia]

[He's not sure 'cool' is the right word for it, but he does enjoy his control over the wind. He's grateful for the opportunity to learn it... even if getting the wound was pretty terrible.]

I can. I'm a wind seraph. if the wind touches it then I can see it

colors, position, shape. I don't get the little things but it's enough.

[He pauses.]

from what I remember you're just under six feet tall. messy brown hair

and you're fast

omg no it's perfect

[stefanged]

[Holy shit.]

You remembered right.

Y'Allah, can you actually feel how fast I'm going???

[Note to future self: run at human speed around this guy.]

\o/

[sylphystia]

[Of course he remembered right, but it's nice to have that confirmed.]

Very. Very. Fast.

the wind grants me speed too but not quite that much.

[stefanged]

Yeah....... I'm not exactly human.

[He would've tried to hide it longer, but between the dragon fight (in which he was uninjured) and his super-speed, it's becoming an increasingly moot point.]

It comes in handy, but it's more biological than magical.

[sylphystia]

A lot of people in the fleet aren't.

[He doesn't see why it's such a big deal.]

sometimes there isn't a difference. What's considered magic changes from world to world.

[stefanged]

Maybe, but I still struggle with my powers.

["I struggle with who I am." From what he knows of seraphim, though, it's not something they actively deal with.]

For sure. Some species don't even have the same attributes from world to world. One's weakness becomes their strength.

[sylphystia]

you're not the only one.

[He's not one to pry, but he does offer that. At least.]

or people think you're something that you're not.

[stefanged]

Basically. Where I come from, people don't like who I am, so the less attention I draw to it, the better.

But if my friends are in danger, there's no use pretending.
