the VOICE In reality's shadow the blind see best Again, the Voice watches. Her maternal instincts halt here however, letting her child figure out movement and balance all on their own. This is no stumbling babe; there will be no applause for first steps, only rigorous scrutiny and academic appeasement. The mimicry is well received though, the Voice chuckling lightly at that. "Humour is intact. Or is that a display of social awareness? Mimicking others shows a tendency towards self-preservation, but also keen observation." Either way, she's pleased. The shifting eye colour...if she notes it, she doesn't show it. She does of course, but she'll not stifle this new development or bias it. Is it a mutation, or an adaptation. Both? Time will tell. "Now. Shall I name you, or will you name yourself?"
