Question Mark [PRIVATE-LILLIAN]

Caly was about to correct her about the scarf being magical, but by how the girl before her presented herself, along with the emotions she bore indicated, that perhaps she wasn't the... Fastest of people. Wasn't an issue to her, so she just played along with it instead of correcting the girl, "Oh, thank you~! I don't get many people complimenting me."

She had the sweetest of smiles on her face as she was relieved Verniy was fine, at least, that's what she indicated with her calmer demeanor and even saying nothing was wrong with her. She'd sense the feeling of pain and the array of emotions associated with it, so she was certain she was fine, but she did sense that the girl was enamored with the entire idea of her "magic" scarf.

She softly chuckled when she was referred to as 'magical scarf girl'. Reminded her of a titling of some cute, pretty girl shows she had unearthed, that used a lot of weird pretty magic and had as magical, if not more, animal companions. Sometimes Caly tried to imagine what kind of animal companion she'd have if she were in such a show, hopefully a dog, she liked dogs and wanted one so badly, but knew she couldn't care for a puppy.

"Oh, my name's Calypso Asthavon." She then suddenly looked rather worried, "..But you don't gotta feel afraid of me, i'm not really much like my family.. Opposite of them actually. Don't worry at all."

She then placed her hands on the the now introduced Verniy's shoulders, her eyes sparkling as she was suddenly swept with excitement, "Your name is so pretty~! Verniy, Verniy! Whoever named you has good taste. Wanna see something cool? Too bad i'm showing it anyway!"

She took a hand off the girl's shoulder, presenting it as if something was supposed to be there, and suddenly... Tiny, golden, rune-inscribed wings peeled off her hand, a fine dust causing them to shimmer softly. It was a small moth that spawned in her hand, having a rather calming aura to it.

"Tadaah~! Isn't it cool? It's alive and everything!" Her hand slightly retracted as the insect didn't do much aside from twitch it's wings, as if it's position in her hand made it at ease, "But don't eat it, it's not food, and I don't think it really tastes like much."

She seems nice, she thought. Although Verniy was reminded of a friend of hers with a similarly approachable and friendly personality, she didn't mind that much since her experiences with that kind of bright personality gives a sense of being at home in Vastime and this girl's personality induces that exact feeling.

One thing that was unexpected is that she introduced herself as an Asthavon. Despite what she heard of them, she was.. very friendly. Would a magical scarf girl be a good person or bad person? Verniy's confusion was soon swept away by Calypso's excitement and surprised her when she said that her name was pretty when she introduced herself, which was very rare for someone to compliment her name at all.

Verniy was silent for awhile. She couldn't keep up with up with Calypso's pace and she didn't pay any mind to it. It was how energetic a magical scarf girl would be, right?

When Calypso had shown her a golden moth, she was.. very intrigued by it.

"Calypso. Moth. Magic."

One of her finger pointed at Calypso and the other at the tiny, golden moth that appeared as she spoke.

Verniy didn't have any tricks to show since they were all very destructive but seeing how a magical scarf girl could do such magic tricks, she was a little happy to see something like that after a long time and thought to herself that maybe, she isn't that much of a threat in the first place.

"More.. What more.. can you do?"

She couldn't express it through her face or the tone of her voice but she tried to express her interest through words alone. She wanted to know what more can she do.

What can a magical scarf girl do?

Caly was a little wary from the girl's lack of reaction. She did sense her interest and such through the emotions associated with it, but, she wasn't very strong about it. Calypso was still questioning if this girl was just slow, or tired, or not used to talking, or something. It wouldn't matter to her why Verniy seemed like that, it was just some raw curiosity, and curiosity never hurts, right?

So when she presented her little creation with such excitement, she looked to Verniy's face for any change in reaction, all she really picked up was an increase in interest, but not nearly the amount she expected. A little sigh in defeat, she was going to secede in her attempts in wowing due to the rather low toned reaction, her pointing at the moth and her. She still smiled warmly, even if she seemed a bit 'not there', she was still really freaking cute. So cute she wanted to hug her a lot, but Calypso still had her bearings and wouldn't necessarily poke into someone's space just like that.

But then, Verniy asked her what else she could do, which surprised Calypso. So she was invested enough to ask for more, so if it was more she wanted.. Then more she shall receive!

"Okay! Uuhhhmm..."

The only thing she could really think at the moment was to make herself cry, which would be rather interesting, wouldn't it? Thus she shut her eyes tight, strained, til copious golden tears began swelling and pouring from her eyes. She pointed at her face gleefully, despite the globs of shimmering amber pouring from her cheeks.

"H-hey, look~! These are my tears, but, I use them to help people feel better!"

She sniffed gently, then tilted her head, "So hey, I got a question, what can you do?"

Verniy was a little.. worried. It had always been something that she was awkward with around people and sometimes, a problem because she lacks any ability to physically express herself. Words and actions were her only means of communicating her feelings over to someone else even if her face seemed empty and hollow.

Although she asked for more magic tricks per say, Verniy was surprised when she teared up - honestly scaring her more than a surprise. She thought her lack of physical reaction were the cause of her tearing up as she hesitantly reached her hand towards Calypso's head for a pat to quickly calm her down, though being a 4 feet tall girl herself didn't really help that much as she struggles to tip-toe her way up to her head.

To Verniy, it was impressive that she can shed such beautiful, amber tears - and even gleefully so whilst pointing her finger towards Verniy.

But..

If Calypso allowed her to do so, Verniy would try to wipe the tears off of Calypso's face with her fingers.

"Your tears are.. beautiful.. but please.. don't make me worry like this even if.. they make others feel better.."

Verniy didn't know how to handle the tears of other people, regardless of their intentions because it scares her, not being able to read the mood, understand people's thoughts or what they might do; a fear that is difficult to get rid of because of her past.

"What.. can I do..?"

When Calypso had asked what she could do, she wasn't sure how to respond. She had done magic tricks herself in the past to earn a living but never something too impressive.

However, she gladly obliged. In return for her selfish for asking the magical scarf girl for her own magic tricks, she felt that there was no reason to refuse even if it wasn't all that special.

"This.."

She lifted her hand up just right beside herself and in an instant, space seemed to warp and distort on top of her palm - even audibly snapped as the distortion was unstable without her weapon to control it.

"I can't.. do anything else.."
