and all their words for glory, well they always sounded empty
Confusion flickers in his gaze for a moment at Wessex’s comment made aloud, but he follows the Wraith anyway toward what he realizes soon to be a mist covered pool – a perfect place to take a dip and wash away the pumpkin guts from before. And so he’s more than content to dive toward his favorite dragon as well, unceremoniously shedding his shirt so that he can scrub the pumpkin guts off. He dives in fully, though, rising with hair plastered to the side of his face when his oceanic gaze finds Wessex again. He stretches out to rub the innards of the pumpkins off of his metal arm, scrubbing away at the seams and slits within it for his movement to make sure none of it got stuck. And from this position, Wessex would be able to see the scars that spread out from where the metal arm is attached, as well as the few that dance along his shoulders and arms.
“That would be handy.” He comments by learning what upgrades each Ascended had and where they’d prefer to be settled when war comes. To plan it out beforehand was perhaps one of the better choices they’d made since he’d been awake, and the grin of agreement flashes across his face at the idea of seeking out the Voice for more upgrades – something he needs to do himself as well.
He nods, humming thoughtfully as he still scrubs. “Perhaps a chat with them all, like a meeting of sorts to kind of add to the urgency of it.” Shoulders rise and fall in a shrug before his gaze levels on her again. “What? Wanna share?” He asks, his grin matching hers in the excitement that flickers across it.
