12 Black Feathers [Action]

[first_darkness]

[ It's early in the morning when it happens.

A small area of black appears near the fountain, just floating in the air. As the minutes pass, it slowly grows until it's about ten feet in diameter, even partially consuming the fountain. About ten minutes after it first appears, Saten fades into view in the very middle, appearing almost as if she's asleep. She floats there for about three seconds before abruptly dropping to the ground.

At that, she seems to wake up. She lifts her head after a moment and slowly looks around. It takes several more seconds before she slowly pulls herself to her feet.

She spends a while looking about her, but before too long the fountain catches her attention. Or in particular, the water in the fountain. When you've never seen anything before, fluid dynamics are absolutely fascinating. So despite the fact that everything non-living within a five foot radius of her turns pitch black, she spends the next several hours running her hand through and splashing at the water. After all, she can see it just fine.

She can be found in the vicinity of the fountain for pretty much the rest of the day and well into the night. Saten is more than content with just staying where she is and observing everything around her for a while. She may not be dressed like a New Feather, but she does seem to be acting a lot like one. ]

You just do... [Like the same way people can just breathe?] And just that?

[before_my_darkness]

I think so. It wasn't hard. Or anything like that. I just wanted to make it so I did.

[de_bel_survivor]

I'm kinda jealous. I don't know how to do something like that. [Yet? There's still some things he haven't completely tapped from the Bels he absorbed.] Should I take it it's something specific to you?

[before_my_darkness]

Hmm... I don't know. I can't really answer that if I don't know about other people. I've met a few already. But I think there's still a lot more here!

[de_bel_survivor]

Well, you don't need to find the answer immediately. Beside, you can try meeting other people here and get to know them. Some of them might even be your new friends!

[before_my_darkness]

[ She nods. ]

I think I'd like that. Friends are a good thing. Right?

[de_bel_survivor]

[He smiles. It's still strange to see Satan like this, or hear her talk like this as well.]

That's right. If you like, I can be your friend as well.

[before_my_darkness]

Really? Thank you!

[ She picked up a pretty massive chip on her shoulder down the line, yup... ]

That would be lots of fun... I think.

[de_bel_survivor]

[From what he knows about her, he thinks it's related to her world's equivalent of God.]

It will be! Friends can have fun and support each other in many situations.

[before_my_darkness]

Support? What do you mean?

[de_bel_survivor]

Like helping each other out. Either with small things, they get into trouble or just want to talk because they're worried.

[before_my_darkness]

That sounds really nice. Alright! We should do that!

[de_bel_survivor]

Yep! I'm glad we could be friends, Saten!
