Welcome to Gaia! ::

The low hum of the elevator in The Dusk tower rumbled in Hushby’s ears. His ears were different from those attached to his former mimic body. Virtually every part of his body appeared and felt different now. He was clinging tightly to the roof of the elevator. It appeared to be an overlooked hiding place. The mimic in a War horseman’s body trembled with excitement.

I can’t squeeze into the same small spaces as before. But I feel so much stronger and invigorated. I can summon a big weapon out of nowhere! Who knows what I could to one of those greedy humanders if I got my claws- I mean my hands on them! I’d teach them! The currently overconfident horseman grinned. The elevator stopped and Hushby’s eyes lit up when he saw the elevator door open. When the elevator began to move again, he felt his hands start to slip. He lost his grip on the elevator ceiling and dropped down to the floor. Guess my old claws were better suited for clinging to things. But I wouldn’t trade my old, ugly body back in place of this masterpiece. His wasn’t used to having an ego and it was clearly growing.

Hushby’s body wriggled as he felt the Famine mare press onto him. “Hm? Oh! Me’ah… I mean Mea. You remembered stuff too?” The Death Horseman made an oddly proud smile. “I’m not sure what’s going on. But I have this new body and it sure feels great.” He tilted his head to make his hair sway like a model. He tensed up his muscles and puffed up his chest a bit. Showing off wasn’t a normal thing to see coming from Hushby.

“Your ears had a nice red color. But these wings you have now look great too.” He was speaking and acting more boldly in his current state. “It’s good to know that you’re still full of energy no matter what you look like. I kinda hope I get to stay like this. I’ve got different fingers and stuff. I’ve even got lips now. I’m not sure how long this is going to last, so let’s go do something fun. Maybe grab a bite to eat?” He lifted up the his skull mask to show off his current face. His confidence was at it’s highest.

Hushby smiled wider and stepped out of the elevator. He walked side by side with her as they made their way towards a spot to get some food. "We should get really nice food. Or maybe we could make something to eat at your room like back at school? I actually had a lot of fun doing that."

He looked over at Alamea. Just the sight of her and her nearly limitless energy made him feel a strange kind of peace. He at looked at Mea's eyes and his cheeks felt warm. "Mea... I was thinking..."

The Famine Horseman's mouth closed and he suddenly felt self-conscious. His memories as a mimic slipped away. He hunched over a little and looked away from his companion. "Hm... I forgot what I was going to say..." He went quiet and kept walking. The bounce in his steps had vanished.
