how long will we blame the devils on our shoulders
She is a big talker, this Mistletoe, but I find that I rather enjoy her spiels. I had neglected to answer her question of my living arrangements for it is... complicated, I am thinking. I desire to still maintain contact with my mother and certainly with Boleyn and even Magnus, but there is surely much more for me here. Perhaps I shall speak with Solaris on the matter and see what he believes, for seldom does he speak without much thought. Mistletoe does not, either - there are many thoughts within her, and whereas speaking so much can be a weakness, I do not see it within her. To be able to speak so freely as her is indeed a freedom from one's own mind, in a sense at least. I even find myself smiling as I watch her mouth move, a lopsided snarl of a smile but nonetheless, it is something. It is a dark interest, a need to possess as I possess Boleyn. I have decided that she is one of my own, one of Solaris' whether he knows it or not. I want only the worthiest surrounding me, after all.
I twist my features into something more passive, lightening them so that my smile is kinder, warmer as I nod to her in feigned understanding. There is little of the world outside that I know, though at times I find I have no interest in discovering its mysteries. Moladion is a large place, an expansive territory that sustains many of us - why would I leave? There is much here to be had.
"I have no left here, you are correct. There is much here that there is little reason to do so. You are beginning to see it, are you not?"
I raise a brow in silent challenge, turning her words around on herself - she has already answered for me. After all, I can hear the close foot falls of Solaris, I am sure of such a thing. Each wolf has their own way of walking, a certain way that their weight shifts and his is one I have made much effort to remember. With another fleeting flash of a smile to Mistletoe, I turn towards the male, meeting his gaze as I do so, the violet of his reflecting back in the gold of my own. We are two sides to a coin, truly, even in appearance. Solaris is vivid and outstanding, and I am pale, dull like the stones and snow. It is almost ironic to think that Mistletoe is somewhere between us.
At his approach, I duck my head once in a greeting before turning to Mistletoe, nodding in confirmation that yes, indeed, this is my companion. There is no need to fret over the boundary that lies so close to us for now, we are welcomed as I am sure we always will be.
"Of course."
It is all I say. Yes, I have come and yes, of course he had been desiring to show me this place. Part of me even believes he had been expecting my company sooner. I move to speak once more but he is fast, turning to Mistletoe with curiosity as he speaks. I cannot help but raise a brow, though my features fall flat no sooner than the twitch had taken place. He is forward, and perhaps he always will be. With a step, I move towards him, placing myself somewhat between them as I meet his eyes levelly, driving my will into him but for a second. It is instinctive, almost, the desire to reaffirm my bringing her here before I speak again, my voice smooth like my mother's.
"Credo...quae intelligimus. Experiretur."
I believe she understands. Test her. I speak the words with a shrug of my shoulders before I step back to my prior position, relaxing my stance as I step back to watch. In the company of Solaris, it is all business. She will notice my sudden coldness and distance but if all goes well, then we shall be able to perhaps discuss such a thing more freely. For now, I am content to see what it is Solaris has planned - if he will test her, or if he will simply believe it to be true. Honestly, it is not easy to pretend that a test would not be... entertaining in its own right. She is a smart girl. Surely she can perform.
when all i am is a monster
