[akito]

[ for those of you who can see him, Akito looks a little worse than wear - tired, and covered in scratches; clothes smudged with dirt, and the odd leaf or twig caught in folds. there's one particular scratch across his face that looks like it might have been nasty, but has healed up for the most part.

despite all of this he has a broad smile on his face, and is shielding one hand with the other very carefully. ]

Hello!

I was playing in the woods and found a poodle moth! See?

[ he uncovers his hand to show the ridiculously fluffy moth sitting on his palm. it doesn't seem the least bit perturbed by its current location, and even begins grooming its face.

for those of you who can't see Akito, or believe in spirits in general, you'll just see a fluffy moth appearing out of nowhere, sitting on an invisible perch. ]

I found a poodle moth in the woods!
It was hard to catch
But now we're friends! 八(＾□＾*)

And does anyone know how to tell when a dream is a memory
As opposed to just a dream?

[ he pauses for a few moments before responding. ]

Ne, can I tell you a secret?

[memoryguardian]

Of course you can!

[akito]

I only call her Mama Sera behind her back because it makes her seem less scary.

[memoryguardian]

[ She tries not to laugh. She does. However, a small one escapes. ]

Yes, Mother Nature is quite the intimidating force.

[akito]

You're lucky you're not one of Hers.

[memoryguardian]

Is it really so bad?

[akito]

It's not bad - just really scary. Have you heard any of the stories of what she's done to minor spirits who disobey her? [ audible shudder ]

Nature can be equally kind and cruel, so Mama Seraphina is the same.
