She looks up at the boy in the sky, not at all worried.

"He can fly I assume."

“Fair enough then.” She waits a minute, some blueberries growing to drop in to her palm. “Judging by the fact that he hasn’t returned yet, is he unlikely to do so?”

Permalink

“Evidently not.”

Very fast scuffling ensues.

Ariadne watches with mild interest and pops blueberries in her mouth like popcorn.

Moira wins. Of course she does.

Ariadne claps in amusement at the victory.

"So, what do you do around here for fun?"

Permalink

"Me? Mostly that."

She giggles a bit, smiling. It drops suddenly, she can hear something, the trees are whispering frantically, so much and so quietly that she can't decipher what they're saying. She sits frowning for sometime until she makes out two words.

"Somethings coming."

Permalink

Her pupils contract as the real world comes back in to focus.

“Who knows, could be. But it doesn’t feel like soon. So that is something for future me to know.” 

She sinks in to the tree, sliding back out in another part of it with a green apple.

“The neatest.”

She smiles brightly.

"You ever tried meat?" Michael asks.

Permalink

She immediately looks utterly perplexed.

“I don’t think so... What’s meat?”

Permalink

"Flesh! Dead animals!"

Permalink

And now she’s a little horrified.

“Definitely not. Why would you- No. I technically eat sunshine and air. And the occasional fruit or berry for the fun of it. No meat.”

Permalink

She makes a face of significant discomfort.

"I guess it's kinda different when you can understand what they're saying, and develop friendships with them through extended conversations."

"But fish are dumb."

Permalink

"What are... fish?"

Permalink

"Imagine birds, but shinier and underwater."

She stares downwards in thought. 

"Huh. Interesting. Never met one of those, so I have no opinion on their intelligence."
