Evie
When hope and peace begin to fray
"Nothing I shouldn't be able to heal even if you do," she assures in turn, though it's without a doubt meant for herself. Evie hopes it's not too great an assumption to believe he'll be near to her side while he learns about the world, even if he's of an age to journey about on his own already. Clearly she'll need to fashion a water bladder full of healing spring water for him to carry around. And soon.
"Swimming is being almost entirely submerged in water, but using your arms and legs to move yourself around in it. It's a pastime, but also a necessary life skill to avoid drowning." One Evie hadn't learned until she reunited with Deimos in Halo, so Amhran will certainly be learning sooner. Hopefully with less disdain than what he displays as he rips the socks back off, startling a laugh out of the Evergreen.
"Okay, okay. You don't have to wear them in the house, but we'll have to think up some ideas for when you're ready to go outside. If you don't wear them with shoes, they'll hurt your feet." She's willing to compromise inside, they have a reliably lit hearth and plenty of rugs as most Halovian homes do. Resting a hand over his, Evie smiles encouragingly. "This is the amount of clothes most people wear inside, so if you're comfortable, do you want to meet Deimos?" Maybe that will distract him from the cruel inevitability of socks.
