snippet of Eîr and Vela, as Sanne is being integrated into the clan
Eîr was used to people being uncomfortable around him. This is what he tried to convince himself, at least.
And it was understandable. It really was! Whether they were uncomfortable because of his attunement to the Void, or the Hive mutations, they had reason. ...It never did hurt any less.
"This new one's an interesting find, for sure" Vela informed him as he climbed up to Eîr. Grateful for something to pull him out of his own head, even if it was talking about what put him there, Eîr lept for the conversation.
"Do you know how she's settling?" he asked the other hunter, shifting from the railing to the bed of cushions, accepting the coffee Vela handed him.
"Other than damn near losing her mind every time she comes into contact with someone void attuned?" Vela winced, offering up his scorched right arm for Eîr's observation "well, for where we found her."
"How is Wraith taking that? hasn't he been invested in the new lights recently?"
"Hard, from what I can tell. Kirach has him out on patrols until we give the all clear"
"...which Eva is working on now. do we know why she has such a strong adversion to Void?"
"Nope. Vias is prying at her -she seems more comfortable with other Awoken- but she's barely a month out the grave."
"So something from her past life. Is Zirne still hanging around Osiris?"
"Yep. they've found some new thing to throw themselves at. Saint projects about a week until Osiris takes a break, and I give Zirne 'round four days. She's already low from the strikes."
