A small squawk resounded from the startled pigeon as the larger bird nuzzled them softly. Lust’s face immediately flushed a bright pink color as they turned away in embarrassment. Though the tender action was strangely pleasant. Once Reseda had wrapped her tail around them while sleeping their very first night. But Lust had largely not felt such an affectionate gesture before. Something deep within them buzzed a bit, stirring to consciousness. As awkward as they felt from the innocent gesture, the tiny hint of craving was forming in their mind.
The thoughts were pushed away, though, as Lust looked back to Glory and saw him crafting a stone. Their eyes widened in wonder about the magic displayed. It was amazing to see the gem form before the eagle’s talons into its very unnatural shape. By the end the sunstone looked like a feather, shimmering much like the eagle’s own feathers did while he blasted fire about. It was beautiful…. And Lust immediately coveted it.
Their heart swelled in an
exponential mixture of emotions as Glory picked up the gem, hobbled closer, and placed it at their feet. He explained its purpose but it was hard to focus. That precious stone, it was for them? And Glory wanted to see them again? It made their head spin in a strange way and their gizzard flip flop. They didn’t understand it all but they enjoyed the hormonal soup flooding their brain. Lust could barely reply as the large eagle hobbled and then soared away.
For a moment Lust simply stood there. It had been a strange and exciting day for them; fear of the rock monster, being rescued so valiantly, learning the basics of flight, all while meeting a beautiful hero of a bird. It was a lot to digest. Then the pigeon realized just how exhausted they were. Daintily, they picked up the gem and hobbled off towards Orion and to their nest to rest and try to make sense of everything. And try not to think of the images still floating at the edge of their mind.
"Speech looks like this."
Thoughts look like this.
