“I understand completely. One’s mind can be their own critic. .perhaps this can aid you a bit. .”
She spreads one of her wings out cupping her hand and scraping up a handful of dust, then she begins to shape it in her hands, eventually the gaps in her fingers glow, and a small little figurine-
🕯️
"R-Right... I mean... I'm not going for glory or anything. There's nothing wrong with floof."
Sky did have to admire when other moths got to show off some floof too.
"And...I guess you're right, I'm just not trying to go too crazy if you see what I mean."
✧𝚂𝚔𝚢𝚕𝚊✧
“Look at me, I’m no different.”
She puffs up her fuzz to show off her f l o o f, before looking back at Skyla, all floofed up.
“And there’s nothing wrong with tinkering, after all, some of the most important advancements were discovered by people just tinkering”
🕯️
"I know the phrase... its just I'm not good at words or swords."
She'd think for a moment,
"I'm more of a giant fluffball who likes to tinker around with my tech and my computers. But...ya know... it really all depends how its used. And they're all useful in different ways...just...other things-
✧𝚂𝚔𝚢𝚕𝚊✧
“Ever hear the phrase the phrase, ‘The pen is mightier than the sword?’”
She continues to smile, things becoming a bit brighter around her
“It doesn’t matter what type of thing you create, if it’s for combat or for enjoyment. .all that matters is YOU made it, not everything has to be a weapon-
🕯️
"I... Well I didn't think of it like that... But that's so pretty."
She would say then taking a tool, thinking to herself.
"The more I create? Depends on what... I don't have many weapons or defenses I make if it's a 'fight' but it's not?"
She then looked over at the lights next to her bots.+
✧𝚂𝚔𝚢𝚕𝚊✧
“Who says you need to go down swinging if you already planned for the fall?”
She says with a smile, handing her one of her tools
“The more you create, the more you do, the more you prove who you are, not what others think you are.”
Light sources in the room shine brighter than they normally do. .
🕯️
"Doubt?"
She'd think for a moment as she looked a tthe creations she had laying on the table.
"W-What about it?"
She'd have to ask now that she mentioned it.
"I mean... I try... I don't know how well... but I'm prepared to go down swinging."
✧𝚂𝚔𝚢𝚕𝚊✧
“Ah . . .Doubt. .”
She says to herself, looking around at the tools, the gadgets, all of it
“You know, there’s one nice thing about doubt.”
She says with a soft smile, placing a hand on Skyla’s shoulder
“Proving people wrong, And you appear well equipped to do that with all these creations. .”
🕯️
Sky would place down her tools as she would do her best to relax. Though she fidgets with her hands a bit.
"I um... I don't do well when people presume I can't do much on a battlefield or in combat considering... how much I do, potions, weapons, enchantments... I do my best."
✧𝚂𝚔𝚢𝚕𝚊✧
Her eyes are filled with a docile, gentle gaze, she sits down next (or around) to sit close
“I know the look of someone with a bit of extra ‘weight’ when I see it. If it’s anything personal I promise no other soul hears.”
🕯️
Skyla would be poking at her contraptions before she would puff up and flinch not really realizing the other moth was around.
"AH- oh... goodness... um... yeah just working off some of my nerves. I'll be alright."
She'd try to give her a reassuring smile.
✧𝚂𝚔𝚢𝚕𝚊✧
The other moth was still around, and when she noticed her tenseness, she gains a slight frown, walking up to her with her hands clasped together and hanging in front of her
“Is everything alright? . .you appear rather tense. .”
Rai says, genuine concern echoing from her tongue
🕯️
She's going to be tinkering with some of her tech, work off some of her nerves... her spray bottle close by.
