♫ Eleventh Song ♫ [Video]

[The feed starts with a sickening crack of a clam shell being smashed against a rock, long fingers prying the shell open with ease. The poor clam is scooped out of its shell and eaten immediately before the shell is tossed carelessly away into the sea water. Syrena's hair is wet and windswept and she tucks part of it behind an ear, scraping a nail against the surface of the rock she's leaning on. Part of her golden tail can be seen for a moment as she lifts it up to splash some water on her back before letting it fall back into the sea water behind her.

She seems, if anything, a little troubled. If she is though, it doesn't show much.]


There is something I do not understand.

[She pulls herself up a bit on the rock then, cradling her face in her palms as she stares at the NV, elbows propped up on the rock and her long hair keeping what would be a rather bare chest out of sight for now.]

There was a ritual held on the beach this morning. A man and a woman were dressed in white clothes and a man who spoke in the name of God joined them together. I do not recall every word shared but their hearts and souls became one and the same. That is what the man in black and white said to the man and woman. There was music and laughter, movement and song. I wished to sing with them but I did not. I stayed silent and hidden.

Their ritual seemed sacred.

[She seems a little forlorn at this if not a tad bit jealous of the happiness she'd witnessed earlier, letting her gaze trail away from the NV to the wet surface of the rock.]

But I do not understand. What was this ritual? Why were they, until that moment, incomplete? Am I incomplete? I was told that I have a soul, but I do not understand what that means. I was told that I was one of God's creatures, but I do not know of God.

I knew nothing of these things until Philip. Even now, I am ignorant.

How can one who does not know what a soul is have one? How would another person know if one possesses one? It is an important thing, a soul, is it not? If it was not, I do not think Philip would have tried to save people's souls.

[She rakes her nails across the surface of the rock before looking back at the NV.]

If I have a soul, what is it to me? I do not know.

Because they love each other! So it's like a celebration of how much they do, and that they'll always be together.

[Another pause, lengthier this time.]

Love is like... When you feel like there's someone who makes you a stronger person, just by knowing them. But there are different kinds.

Like, the way you love friends and family is different than the way you love someone who you would want to get married to!

Well, falling in love with someone you want to marry is like... It's the best feeling in the world. Friends make people happy, of course, but having a special person makes it seem like the whole world is brighter. And like you're a better person, too.

Maybe you just haven't found the right person yet.
motioned: (so this is love)

Once you find them, you'll just know. There won't be any doubt, not at all.
motioned: (ever a surprise)

Well... Is there anything else I could tell you about it to help you understand it more?
motioned: (bugler's dream.)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-01 04:13 am (UTC)(link)
Of course it does! Love... Love is really important.
motioned: (sure¸ she's got everything!)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-01 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
Well, because it makes everyone happy!
motioned: (dream giver¸ just around the riverbend?)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-01 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
Because you would be happier if you did!
motioned: (what's that word again? street!)

[personal profile] motioned 2012-09-01 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah! It's like the best feeling in the world.
motioned: (how many wonders can one cavern hold?)

[An awkward pause, slightly surprised.]

O-Oh, I have lots of friends! Um, that's enough for me.

Hey, do you want me to braid your hair?

[Subject change is go!]
