Nyx hummed and decided to test what Asriel had said out.She let the
memories come to her.She smiles as she watches herself push Rowan
on a sing in the park."Higher sissy,higher.I wanna touch the
sky."She let the feeling of peace and happiness that came from
that memory flow through her and into the flower.She smiled as it
halfway shifted into a lily that was a pale pink in color.Well
wrong emotion but that was a good try.She muses to herself with
a small laugh.
''not really, i've hardly met anyone here aside from Zia and you
two'' Jacob said.
~~~~~
''talking to a squirrel... o-okay'' she said, smiling as she held
her hand out, just like she would with a dog or cat.
Whisker's watched but soon went to grooming herself.
Troye sprang up immediately. "Alright then. I'll have a chat with
my fangirls and get everything going." Troye said. "Fangirls
huh..." Lise said, glaring at him. Troye didn't seem to notice as
he walked over to Jacob. "I hereby order you to give me your
number." He said. Lise sighed. Why was she friends with him again?
Papi looked over at Fell with mixed emotions displayed on his face.
"I don't want to do it...but I will." Papi sighed as he thought
about the fluffy tailed rats that looked creepy and yelled at you
all the time.
"Oh yeah..." Troye said. Lise sighed. He was hopeless. "Then... may
I please have your number?" Troye asked, in the way he usually
asked people to do things for him. But there wasn't anything behind
his request this time.
"Feel what Peanut is feeling. Imagine what a squirrel goes through
in everyday life. Reach out to her, and speak her language." Fell
says. The squirrel, Peanut, dips her head with a small chatter.
"Good try, much better." Asriel says. "One emotion is always easier
for others to channel. You just have to find it."
"But...it's a squirrel? All they care about is getting fat!" Papi
stopped talking though and sighed. "Fine...um...Squirrels almost
get hit by cars...they collect nuts so they survive winter and
don't perish...they yell a lot..." Papi thought about the different
things he seen happen to squirrels or what they had done. "Being a
squirrel must be hard..." Papi started to really feel sorry for
squirrels...the pain they go through. Papi looked up at Peanut and
whispered, "Life can throw a lot at you huh?"
''hmm.... how about this, i'll give.. Lise was it..? my number, and
if you want to ask me something or whatever, you can ask her to
text me'' he said.
~~~~~
Wisteria started to focus a bit and try to think like a squirrel
would, and how they roll with life.
''so your name's Peanut...? it's a very cute name'' she said,
smiling softly at Peanut.
Asriel's dead silent for a moment. "Depression." He says quietly.
"Depression is my easiest."
Peanut's ears twitch at Papi's comment. She flicks her tail at
Wisteria. "Animals are very physical creatures. Animas not only
have to learn how to connect enough to speak their language, but
also read their motions."
"Hmm...study their motions. Squirrels flick their tails when
angered, and twitch their ears when thinking. Maybe she's slightly
curious with annoyance..." Papi mumbled as he stared at the
squirrel. "I wonder if she's curious of us new people, and knows we
have the ability to talk with her, but is annoyed that we can't
fully communicate yet..." Papi mused, deep in thought.
"Oh...sorry."Nyx says quietly.She lets another memory come to her
mind and she watches for a few minutes before flinching and
watching as the flower wilts completely.Oops.she thinks to
herself.
"Where as my easiest is... admiration. And Haven likes me more that
you, especially as you mope around all day, isn't that right, Lady
Haven?" Nova laughed, returning Asriel's boop. As she asked, three
full bloomed white roses appeared at her feet. "See?"
Noah walked over to Red. "Umm, hi?" He asked, smiling slightly.
"Nah, Haven likes me better because I've lived there the longest."
Asriel says. "Although, she does love the Lighter." His last word
has enough venom in it to turn Nyx's flower a deep red.
"You're still mad about me dating one last year?" Nova laughed.
"Come on, Azzy! He belonged in Hell. I was just going out with him
for a month! Also you and Red have GOT to get over your
fights."
"Yeah. My sister's a Lighter though. Anyway, I'm Noah." The white
haired boy introduced himself, sticking his hand out for a hand
shake with the older boy.
Papi closed his eyes and focused. 'You are a squirrel...think like
one...' Papi murmured as he thought deeply. Suddenly, he felt that
strange sensation again. "Hello?" Papi whispered uncertainly, his
eyes still closed.
Troye put a hand over his heart. "I'm wounded." He said, being very
overdramatic. Lise chuckled. "That would be safe." She said,
walking over to Jacob. Troye walked over to the door and pulled out
his phone. "Alright, well I gotta bounce. This party isn't going to
set up itself!" He said before running off with a wink. Lise
sighed. "Don't die!" She called out after him.
