Busy hands help quiet the mind. Shoveling snow of this height is new, but manual labor has always done the trick; so has fighting, but she’s unwilling to release her new upgrade on someone who just wants to learn. Or one someone who isn’t quite as strong unless they know what they’re getting into. That would be straight up shitty and irresponsible, and the Wraith is trying to leave that kind of behavior behind. This is the new, helpful Wessex. Right? She whispered back, I am the storm |

DELPHINE Delphine wanted to be helpful, so she bundled herself up and headed out with a group of people to help shovel a proper path through the snow from the portal. She knew it'd piled high, and that was why she'd not been able to flee to Torchline for LongNight. Not like she'd have enjoyed the warmer climate by herself, anyway. She carried her own shovel and had told Noah where she was going. She'd learned her lesson, wandering into Whitebrim while trying to find her way to the portal. Never. Again. As her group comes to the small path that's currently cleared, Delphine took a moment to study the stranger that was already there, digging and stomping. It made sense to dig out the path, then stamp it into place. Delphine eventually stopped staring and began to shovel the path to match the width that Wessex had started. She's slow, and out of element--physical work has never been something she's enjoyed, but she'd mentioned to someone she wanted to be useful... So here she was. She really hated the snow. The group she had come with dispersed, each picking a task and setting to it, chattering amongst themselves. She hadn't really known any of them, so she dug in silence. Sometimes it sucked, being too shy to make friends but not really having any friends. What's that thing they say about a rose by any other name? Dandelion, dandelion. the Wraith

DELPHINE Delphine smiled, brightly, when the stranger acknowledged her. She didn't have many friends, because she was a bit shy--a bit too invasive, as Korbin had taught her. "Delphine." She responds, easily. She decided since the other woman had stopped to speak to her, it's a good time to take a bit of a break. "I've not seen you around before. Are you from Halo?" It wasn't meant to be rude--she was a people-watcher, an observer, more than she was a talker. And lately, Halo was home--had become home. It might be cold and icy, but... Noah made it worth it. What's that thing they say about a rose by any other name? Dandelion, dandelion. the Wraith

DELPHINE Delphine hummed, listening and watching the woman work. As Wessex addressed Delphine again, the woman began to shovel snow once more, "Hm? I am, yes." She's used to it, never fitting in anywhere she goes. It happened in her own world, too, so it's nothing new. "It's different here, in Caido. But especially Halo." She stated, easily, as she stamps on the path, "Colder than I'm used too. Do you mind the cold?" The other, Wessex, hasn't told Delphine where she's from, simply that she is a Grounder. So native, at the least. She's not much good at multitasking, too used to getting fully engrossed in a project and forgetting anything but said project exists... but she's not that interested in shoveling, so it's easier to focus on the other woman and the task at hand. After all, she wanted to seem useful, and meet people. She couldn't keep envying Noah for having friends, when she made very little attempt to introduce herself to strangers. What's that thing they say about a rose by any other name? Dandelion, dandelion. the Wraith

DELPHINE I am a day dreamer, and a night thinker. "It is amazing. Have you met many from my world?" She's aware they're out there; after all, she and Neron had once been... something. She and Zariah, best friends. She'd babysat Beatrix Launceleyn. Honestly, the downfall of the Launceleyn family was a sad thing to watch, and her thoughts reminded her that she needed to reach out to the Academy, and see about joining. "Ah." She observed, catching sight of fangs. "I suppose that's lucky." She doesn't seem disturbed; Delphine's husband, Bellamy, had been a supporter of Bloodfiend lives, and... she had to suppose that Ascended were not that different in functionality, though she'd never researched the matter enough to know. "I guess she's good." She responded. Delphine still didn't know the woman personally, but she listened when Noah spoke about his day, about the Warden and the plans she had for Halo. the Wraith

DELPHINE I am a day dreamer, and a night thinker. Delphine tipped her head, "Northaven, originally. A bunch of us came over at once." She explained with a shrug, "You probably know some of us... There was Zariah, Neron... Loren, Remi," Delphine's only met Ronin once, a long time ago, but the people she listed off she was once close too. "I don't think abomination is the right word, and useful should never be used to describe someone's existence." She stated, quietly. Bellamy had made her useful, and useful had been all she was for a while. Here... she wasn't quite useful, just yet, but she was more than her actions, more than just a maid, which she appreciated. "Uhm, Abandoned." Nobody's ever asked so bluntly before; it's kind of nice. the Wraith

DELPHINE I am a day dreamer, and a night thinker. Delphine arched a brow, when Wessex called the Northavener's that crew. She doesn't ask, though. It doesn't surprise her that the other woman knows them well (perhaps she should have thought to ask who Wessex knows well, but... this is Delphine we're talking about, queen of focusing only on herself). "It shouldn't be used to describe someone's entire existence," she repeated, quietly. "It's good to be useful, especially to the gods," How many times had she tried to get Ludo to hand her what she wanted, and walked out alive? "But... I used to live only to be of use, and that wasn't a life." She murmured, much quieter. Wessex' last statement is met with a shrug. The other woman has a point, but... Delphine had literally crawled into a cave and isolated herself from this strange new world, until recently. She was probably one of those maladjusted Northaveners. the Wraith

DELPHINE I am a day dreamer, and a night thinker. Delphine startled, when the man turned around to shout at them, the tone of his voice almost a welcome sound, dragging her briefly through the recesses of her memories; of her mind. Alder... Alder used to yell at her like that, all the time. She shook herself out of her daze, as a snowball was pressed into her hand, and the other woman's words reached her ears. She used to be a good girl, but she was just too easily impressed upon. Besides, a little snowball never hurt anyone... and Delphine knew a bit about hurting people. She turned towards the man that had shouted, and surveyed the crowd of workers, before pitching the snowball at some other unsuspecting soul. Delphine was an artist, who had a preference for long-range combat if there was combat to be had, so her aim was pretty good. "Are you sure this is living," she inquired, with a breathless chuckle. It was fun. And life was supposed to be fun. Not tragic and dark and death-y. So this was living, right? Causing a bit of mischief? | ||||||
