[Where it might be disturbing to someone else, Myr takes a...certain kind of familiar comfort in L's ethereal qualities. It isn't so unlike how a spirit might appear, and even if Myr had always been chary of the Maker's first children after his Harrowing, it's yet the case some part of him misses seeing them in his dreams. That L reminds him of them in other ways, too, makes the analogy more satisfyingly complete.
...Which does not entirely erase the worry that comes in seeing L this way; but then, Myr had always known his Bonded was little more than skin and bone, had braced himself for the struggle of keeping the detective eating and caring for himself despite ingrained tendencies to do otherwise.
He does not miss, either, those flickering signs of unease. His own curiosity sufficiently satisfied, he takes his gaze from L--to the convenient distraction of the oncoming worm.]
I have, haven't I? They're sweet creatures. If we ever meet them outside dreams, I think I'd bring one home--provided they can live aboveground.
[He offers out a hand to greet the beast once it's near enough, smile softening as it brushes his palm with its antennae.]
How much of the foundational work in the area was before Monsters and Witches started Bonding in earnest, d'you know? [From cute animal buddies right back to magic. How the passions of the faun and the passions of the ex-mage sit strangely by each other, but not without harmony.] I know there's a considerable risk of becoming lost entirely to the waking world, but Morgana Drummond was fearsome powerful at it; I suspect she'd some way of mitigating that danger.
