Delta Snow - The Familiar’s Ramblings
Delta had been passing the time by coiling the hair that usually hung over the bridge of his nose around his finger. His gaze drifted over in the direction of his familiar sending volleys of queries at his newly acquainted comrades. It was fun to see his companion in such a jollity state, even refreshing, almost. The sight could almost put a smile on his face, if his facial muscles actually had prior usage. But the chatterbox of a familiar also fulfilled a secondary purpose in this scenario. Eve’s intention was to get to know its comrades, but it also gave leeway for Delta to indirectly study his teammates. The leader, Robert, actually took the time to answer every individual question haphazardly flung at him, while the other simply gave a short response listing the necessities. Succinct, straightforward, and with minimum time spent. It was easy to see which of the two had the more disciplined pedigree.
But on the other hand, albeit Robert seemed to be a bit sheepish, he appeared to be the kind of guy to put in immeasurable bouts of time and effort into anything without the slightest of obligation, no matter how daunting the task may be. Delta could tell why he was appointed as the leader of his previous team. The boy couldn’t help but to wonder what exactly happened to them, considering what time of the year it already was, he should already have three more members backing him up at this juncture. He wouldn’t pry. Not yet at least.
Eve hung onto every word, watching as the syllables gravitated themselves from their points of origination and glided into the semblance’s ears. It was then that Eve realized it had forgotten to introduce itself, pouting for a moment at its own brashness. ”Sorry, I was so caught up in the heat of the moment, I forgot to introduce myself.” The familiar rubbed the back of its head with a stubby appendage and lightly chuckled at itself, ”My name is Eve, I’m Delta’s semblance! I don’t have an exact gender, so feel free to designate me by my name. I materialized as soon as Delta was able to manifest his abilities, which means I’m basically connected to his lifeforce.”
The familiar glanced back at the aforementioned boy, who was aimlessly staring off towards the door. A sigh escaped its miniscule mouth before continuing on with the conversation, ”Oooooh, pizza?! Wonder if it can challenge sergeant Ken’s homemade pie. Glad to hear that the academy has a wide diversity of sustenance.” Eve was glad that the chefs here weren’t as narrow-minded as those back at their old base. They were probably friendlier as well. Eve tilted its head when Robert asked to clarify about what it exactly wanted to know. An arm pressed itself against its chin as it thought over the next question. ”I guess… What’s your best feature?” Eve could already tell that Grane would resonate well with Delta. Quiet people always seemed to have another form of communication, one which transcended words. While all of this was happening, the student was wondering when they would go on to their next class.
There was somebody he wanted to meet.
