Hey, couldn't get to the comm right away, probably out kicking things. Since that doesn't last long, leave me a message and I'll get back to you as fast as I can, eh?

[Written]
Have a haiku.

There was a bluebird
Who was too busy for you
Leave me a message

Similar, but I imagine that your...devil's fruits are a less heavy burden. My mind is still conscious when I am a spiritual entity, so I know what I'm doing, I just can't stop myself.

[She shakes her head]

I associate with my friends by being myself. Not by being human. I think they understand that, and many of them know that side of me exists, but it doesn't come out often. And they...rightly fear it.

[fierybluebird]

Understood.

[Tilts his head a little coyly.] Should I fear it too then?

[windandrain]

Only a fool wouldn't be. It's a terrible, and beautiful thing. And when I am truly gone, my body's shell returns to dust. My true shape takes form.

[fierybluebird]

As a storm?

[windandrain]

No.

[The body before him shimmers shimmers and changes into something entirely different. Her fingers elongate into near claws, streams of silver pour down her cheeks, and she grows several feet, a physical avatar of a thunderstorm. Dressed as she is in clouds, her posture regal and commanding, the spirit form of a god is meant to be an awe inspiring thing.]

This is what I truly am.

[fierybluebird]

Ah?

[He's impressed, but watching a storm goddess take on an avatar form like that, actually excites Marco. Like just before a huge battle. All his blood starts pumping in a fight or flight response, and...]

Damn. You are beautiful like this, eh? But I can see how it could be a bit terrifying.

Why destroy though?

[windandrain]

Are storms peaceful things?

[She doesn't change back yet and her eyes, wet with tears, regard him coolly. Saori knows what he's feeling, his heartbeat practically thundering in her ears, and it's a truly predictable reaction.]

[fierybluebird]

[He switches into phoenix and flies up to her eyes to try to wipe away the tears with a gently soothing blue fiery wing, heedless to the danger or how it might hurt.]

No, but even a storm can feel rage and sorrow for a reason, perhaps.

[windandrain]

[The god-thing doesn't even flinch, but the tears do not stop, They aren't tears of sorrow or joy, more streams of molten silver to represent the rain itself. They simply flow through his wing, and continue on.]

Yes, they can. Storms are always weeping for something. And crying as well. Whether it's rage or sorrow, I know not.

[fierybluebird]

Maybe both, and joy to boot, eh? Tears can be a sign of a lot of different emotions, that doesn't make them bad.
