Oh, no end of it. I don't think I'll ever be happy to walk up to a stranger and ask if they wouldn't mind confessing their sins to me. Or... or almost everything else, if I'm honest. It's hardly easier to ask from a friend.
Aren't they? I don't see any overlap on your card, sadly. No chance of killing two birds with one stone.
Well, which of them would you be comfortable with? I may have to draw the line at 'make-outs', but other than that, if it's you I'm doing them with? Then I'm quite all right with the rest.
I should probably keep to light-hearted, I think. Unless you really wanted to unburden yourself to me? Though, if that were truly to be the case, mayhap waiting until after the game would be better. I don't need someone to dangle a prize before me for that.
I've never had feathers before. I wonder what brushing them would feel like?
[--it's exactly like stretching, really, just more feathery. Spreading the wings that aren't hers feels a lot like - like she could make all her hairs stand on end, for no purpose but to feel the wind better. It makes her laugh, startled.]
[It feels strangely like having her hair brushed: that's the closest comparison she can come up with. And, like having her hair brushed, there's something soothing about it.]
[... and that's about the point she notices the - thing.
[Alisaie isn't quite sure what it is. She just knows it's sparkly, it's right there, she needs something very like it to (and let's be quite accurate here) break the curse she's under, and - perhaps most crucially - it doesn't seem like anything Lark will particularly object to losing, for a moment or two.
[Which is why, while he's distracted, she reaches out and unhooks it from its chain.
[Sorry, Lark, this is one of those occasions where she's going to have to ask for forgiveness and not permission. And it's hardly like one realistically can ask for permission to conduct a theft, is it?]

See? Ridiculous, aren't they? What of your own?

Re: skylark
Compliment a friend three time, perhaps? I can also brush your feathers.

Want to find out, then?

Gods! This feels strange.

[ Hell start brushing her wings, if she let's him. ]

How strange. I thought it'd feel far odder.
