They stopped to consider how to phrase the question. "Does she ever talk about what it's like being a god? Like... 'ugh, someone else is PRAYING, hold on', or... or anything like that? I can't think of another example, but..." They shrugged, finished cutting out that seashell, and went on to cutting out the last one. "Maybe I don't have enough seashells..."
An idea occurred to them. "If you want, while we chit-chat, you can make some waves, maybe? Like this." They set down the scissors and drew a curved line up to a point, another curved line from there to another point, etc. They did a second row a little ways beneath that and said, "See? And then I can cut out the waves and paste them on the lantern. She liked the water."
