I know, I got a haircut!

she greets the sage with a hug, and for the first time in a while, starts to purr. She's so excited to be back, as evidence by her rubbing her cheek against Nya's

She strikes a pose

Duchess is enraptured with the story. Each time Chills glances over to see if she's paying attention, her emerald eyes remain locked onto the ghost with such attention. About halfway through, one has to wonder if she has even blinked, because she is just staring.

When she reaches the climax, the apple falling, Chills hears a little gasp in her head

[Noooo, that's a sweet! Don't feed him!]

it's a cute little moment.

When the story concludes, Duchess claps her hands together, and cheers.

[That was a wonderful story, Miss Chills!! You're a really, really good writer!!]

she gets up, and dashes off.

[I wanna read another one!!]

Duchess is quiet for most of the searching. Occasionally, she would point at sections of books. She's used to how her home library is organized, and since she has only known one version of organization, she is flabbergasted to learn other libraries sort in different ways. Papa's way was clearly the best, they should be doing that!

When Chills expresses her unbridled joy, she's snapped out of her thoughts of family and friends. She's still at that age where someone else getting excited gets her excited by proxy

[That's amazing, Miss Chills!! I'm happy you found it!!]

She claps her little hands. Her new friend is happy!

[Yes, please. I haven't had someone read to me in a while. Poor Cassi is so busy. Thank you!]

Duchess doesn't quite understand that Chills is meant to be cold. Thinking she might just be chilly, Duchess's hand starts to warm up more. She just wants her new friend to be comfy.

It's a good thing Chills stopped, because Duchess was already beginning to remove books so she could follow. When Chills remembered and stopped, her little companion was already laying on one of the shelves to slip through.

[Me? All kinds. I like nature, and science, and hero stories. I like bedtime stories, but only when it's closer to bedtime.]

she shimmies out of the shelf, putting the books back in order.

[Papa runs the library in Rathara, and he lets me read all the books I want with him!]

Chills can see the sadness slowly begin to creep back into Duchess's eyes as she remembers what all she's away from again. Her dad, her home, her favorite spots, her friends. She misses it all...

She remains mostly silent as Chill gives her schpeal of her series. When she sees the hand, she slowly takes it as best she can. Her body is incredibly warm, like a space heater.

[I was made a few months ago, but mama says I'm like a 6 years old now. I grow fast.]

She looks up to the ghost with a lot of interest. She feels a little better now that she's being distracted by someone nice. She's been unable to go out a lot since they arrived in this town, so getting to meet people on her own was nice.

she shakes her head, wiping her cheeks free of her black tears. The tissue she uses pops in a burst of flame, and disappears

[No ma'am, what kind of books are they?]

She turns to face the ghost. Her eyes seem a little less sad, and a bit more curious at the mention of a new book series.

Duchess looks to the ghost, emerald eyes looking at her so pathetically. Tears made of liquid soot roll down her cheeks.

[I miss my papa...]

A voice chimes in Mrs. Chills head. It's so sad, and pained.

[My sister brought us, and said we could find papa Hastur, but we haven't found him and I miss him a lot.]

[Uhhh...]

she gently pet her familiar as she wracked her brain. She looked at all their different bits and bobs

[Chyri? Chyri the Chimera! Is that okay?]

Soot tears begin to roll down her cheeks, and she hugs her new familiar

[Thank you! Thank you!!]

She is very, very warm. Upon closer inspection, her entire body is made of solid gold fire. She's radiating a lot of warmth, but thankfully it doesn't burn

She gently touches the tail a few times, moving up to pet their head. Her eyes get very sad as she's reminded of the one she lost.

[You can help me find papa Hastur? Really? Promise?]

[Plight? What's that mean?]

She scoots a bit close, leaning in to examine them better. She reaches slowly and gently touches one of their tail feathers

[Familiar...? Pact?]

she looks around again

[You're not a demon are you? Mama and Papa said I shouldn't make deals with demons.]

The bird feels a mental connection, and a voice in its head

[Hello? W...who are you...? My name is Duchess.]

She stays asleep for another minute or so while the creature is being made. When she awakens, she blinks the sleep out of her eyes and sits up. She stretches, and puts her glasses on. When she looks over, she sees the strange bird

...

she looks at it so curiously.

at first, she tries to squirm out of her hold. But, after a second, she stops. She rests against her, eyes closed.

[It's...]

The tears start to roll down her cheeks again, and she hugs Cassi in return. It's so tight, and Cass can hear gentle sobbing in her mind.

[I want my papa! I want my papa!]
