[It was late last night when Ion was taken from the village, and it had been done so quietly it might have been impossible to know he was gone if his bedding hadn't been thrown around the room.]

[But he wasn't gone for very long, as it's less than a day later that Ion returns to the village sometime in the early evening. At a glance, he might just be mistaken for another new feather: he's sitting on the ground near the plaza, wearing those same white new feather pants with a somewhat confused look on his face. But to those who know him well, they might also notice his hair looks a few inches shorter than usual.]

[He isn't doing much, likely because he doesn't know what he should do. What does one do after they've just been born? Should someone walk by, he'll turn his head to stare at them, but he won't say anything.]



(( ooc: Since I've wanted to do this since forever and finally have the time: Ion is going to be de-aged (from 15~ to 12) for a little while! Although Ion has technically gone back to being a "newborn", Fon Master replicas were born with most of their basic functions rather than as a blank slate, so he'll eventually be able to talk and walk once he realizes what those functions are. He'll start out a little slow, but he's a very quick learner! Just don't expect him to know what anything is at first. |Db ))

[ Sophie is ... wandering around when she spots him.

And she's confused as to why he's just sitting there, doing nothing.

So she stares at him. ]

From: [personal profile] distressedude
[Well, Ion was doing nothing until Sophie came along.]

[Now he's not doing nothing: he's staring back. And that is clearly something.]

From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ Oh, oh, he's staring back.

Which only confuses her more because clearly he is able to move so why is he just sitting there.

And she stares, cocking her head to the side a bit. ]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-15 01:52 am (UTC)
distressedude: (Omai what do we have here?)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[He doesn't know why he's sitting here either, but it's all he's ever known how to do at this point.]

[Ohh, but head tilting. That's new. Let's copy that, yes.]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-15 02:07 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ ... And now he is copying her. Which warrants even more confusion!

... So she tilts her head to the other side — to see if he'll copy that as well. ]

distressedude: (Gdit why so short?)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[Oh, she turned to the other side. What he supposed to do the same? He didn't really know, but if copying her before produced a reaction, maybe this would too?]

[Mimicking again.]

From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ Oh god he did it again!!

She takes a step back now, still keeping her eyes on him, staring. She looks almost surprised. ]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-15 02:59 am (UTC)
distressedude: (Would you hurt this face?)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[There is no look of surprise on Ion's face, as he sets his head upright and just stares back, slightly confused. Did he do something wrong?]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-15 03:04 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ She stops looking almost surprised, and goes back to her pure poker face again. She is confused, too, but he isn't talking and so she isn't sure if she should.

So more staring at him. ]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-15 03:08 am (UTC)
distressedude: (Nervous)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[He's not sure what "speech" is at this point. He'd probably have to be spoken to first before he could start picking things up.]

[Staaaaaaaare.]

[ She kneels down now, so that she's eye level with him.

And continues to stare. ]

From: [personal profile] distressedude
[There's no reaction as she gets closer. Even though he's never seen someone like her before, he has no reason to be afraid. He's never felt fear before, after all.]

[So he just keeps staring.]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-16 03:30 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ She stays there on her knees, staring right across at him.

Not. Moving. At all. Not even a blink. ]

From: [personal profile] distressedude
[For a minute Ion wonders if he should try the same. So he does.]

[...b-but keeping his eyes open for too long without blinking hurts. After a minute or so, he shuts his eyes tightly and reaches up to rub at them.]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-16 10:05 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ Oh, he did something different now!

And Sophie continues to stare for a moment longer, cocking her head to the side juuust slightly—

And then she ends up copying him now, shutting her eyes, and moving her hands to rub them in a similar way. ]

distressedude: (I never realized...)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[The stinging only lasts a moment or two before he cracks his eyes open again, peeking back at Sophie between his fingertips. She was doing the same thing... did her eyes hurt too?]

[He doesn't lower his hands yet, watching and waiting to see if she does something next.]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-19 01:43 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ Eventually, she stops rubbing her eyes to see if he's done anything yet — she moves them off to the side and out of the way, opening her eyes again.

And then she notices he's peeking at her from between his fingertips, so she moves her hands back into their previous positions, and peeks at him in a similar fashion. ]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-20 12:09 am (UTC)
distressedude: (Wat.)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[Oh, now she's doing the same thing he's doing! Again. Maybe he's supposed to be the one doing things? Oh, but what could he do...?]

[He just lowers his hands into his lap again. Still staring.]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-20 11:17 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ And Sophie follows, lowering her hands into her lap as well.

Still staring. ]

distressedude: (These little wonders...)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[Is she blinking this time? Ion learned from the first time that not blinking isn't good, so hopefully she's blinking.]

[...unless she's different? He doesn't really notice if she is or not. He's not sure what he looks like, after all.]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-24 02:01 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ Nope, no blinking going on over here. No blinking at all!

She is keeping her eyes open, just staring at him. It is sort of an odd feeling to not blink, but ... she isn't going to blink still.

Just stare. ]

[action]

Date: 2011-05-26 05:25 am (UTC)
distressedude: (Gdit why so short?)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[Now that Ion knows not blinking hurts, he thinks maybe she's feeling that same pain he had moments ago. Maybe she didn't know she had to blink? He leans forward a little and blinks slowly a few times.]
From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ And she does the same, leaning forward and blinking slowly.

Your actions. They do not get past the Sophie. ]
distressedude: (I never pegged you as a cross-dresser.)
From: [personal profile] distressedude
[Oh. So she can blink! For some reason, it makes him feel a little better knowing that.]

[But that doesn't do much about his current situation, so he's just going to lean back again, letting out a tiny sigh as he does so.]

[action] AWW YEAH B)!!!

From: [identity profile] cluelessflower.livejournal.com
[ Then she will do the same, leaning back and letting out a tiny sigh, as well. And she keeps her eyes fixated on him, to make sure that she doesn't miss one movement.

She is so intrigued and confused. ]
