[ She nods along, yes, that's what she does. Plays with the animals, cleans cages, gives them some TLC. And Nai'a Nights. As he continues, however, the nodding slows and she bites her lip as she leads them to a table away from any other occupied ones. ]

Um, well... Kind of. I mean, at first, that and to make some money but now... [ The orphanage discussion is way too big. So: ] There's...people relying on me. I'm just trying to support them.

[ With an unintended questioning tone, Riley answers after a thoughtful moment: ]

Yes? No— people here. I know someone from home- I mean, we live together, she's my best friend— but, she's got her own job, she can support herself.

[ The reality of the situation is the orphanage is too big for her to go into. She's barely been able to cover it with those close to her, those who found her in the midst of her rampage or who she cried on after. The reality of what she did has lived with her, ever since Giorno explained what he meant, that day. Even before then—she lost the drive, the feeling that what she was doing actually saved anyone.

If she talks about it, she might break. And that...is probably a little much, for an afternoon lunch. ]


It's just... You know, working with...kids. [ It's the closest she can get to the subject. ] I guess... They remind me of...somethings. But, really...

[She shrugs one arm, and her wing bumps against her chair. Annoying, but she's used to it. ]

I just wanna do right by them.
isawallflower: (have you ever felt so good you-)

[ Immediately: ]

You're what?!

[ She squawks a little. Her neck puffs and stretches out. Her cheeks go red immediately after. ]
isawallflower: (but the day that you stand up‚ you)

[ Riley's face remains fully red, especially when Horatio laughs. ]

It- it's just a- bird thing. [ She mumbles it, under her breath as the waiter comes along. Oh dear. She gets herself some tea. Riley and coffee don't really mix well. ]

You— I'm- how's time travel make you...that old, but you- you look, so— young!
isawallflower: (close your eyes)

[personal profile] isawallflower 2022-03-16 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
[ To go back and everything... All of it being like when she was even younger...

Riley shivers. ]


That...sounds genuinely awful, I'm sorry. [ She hesitates. ] So... Does that...mean you're...like, an adult...?
isawallflower: (we need so they'll know)

[ After everything she's seen and been through, frankly she'll believe anything with little convincing. Once a staunch "ghosts probably aren't real" person, she's learned to roll with the punches. ]

O- oh, I definitely wasn't— [ judging him, but...she was, wasn't she? ] ...Okay, it wasn't really...judging, I just...don't have a good relationship with alcohol.

[ This is weird. Knowing he's an adult... That changes this but she's not sure in what way. She's all thrown off-guard. You have to signal different things to adults and other kids...right? ]

isawallflower: (so let's go 📣)

[ A toast to something like that? How...strange. Strange but welcome. Her smile's caught between the mask she puts on for adults and a genuinely grateful twitch of her lips, as she raises her cup in return. ]

Yeah. Here's to...letting people take that first step. When they feel like they can. [ A moment later, quickly: ] To, uhm, you too? I hope- I don't wanna pry, like, about any of the...sensitive stuff.

[ And yet. She's not! So, he trails off, and Riley tilts her head in that birdlike way of hers. ]

So...? I'm sorry, the, uh— I've only really spent time with Miss Lusamine and- well, Celeste while she's been one, in terms of like...fairies.
isawallflower: (take a second)

[personal profile] isawallflower 2022-04-12 03:36 am (UTC)(link)
...Oh.

[ Well. First of all, poor fucking Celeste, and second of all— ]

I...genuinely had no idea, uh. That must be... Wow.
isawallflower: (you start to realize)

[personal profile] isawallflower 2022-05-03 09:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Um... No?

[ But she doesn't sound so sure. Being a harpy... In only a year—less than, if you deduct the time it took for her to change, the time she spent a manticore—it's become an intrinsic part of her. ]

The most inconvenience was really just...the change itself, um... Like, I get distracted by shiny things, sometimes? But I don't really mind that. It doesn't sound as...difficult to deal with, as being literally unable to lie.
