[ There is so much more she's not getting into, but there's no reason to bring it up unprompted. ]

Mostly, yeah. They keep to the number one rule about not exposing the Fae but also don't care if they hurt or kill humans. I mean, the Light also don't seem to care that much about humans but they at least make an attempt not to kill us.

[helpdesk_hero]

So we're effectively a side thought, if even that much. I suppose that is fair. Humans might try and use them, or hurt them. Which is hardly worthwhile to them

[heartstings]

For those that aren't in the know. Those, like me, are nothing more than pets.

But, yeah, the whole reason they stay a secret is because they're afraid of humans would do to them. And, honestly, I can't blame them. [ She's seen what humans will do, murder them, experiment on them, try to turn themselves into Fae... Though she's guilty of that last one herself. She tried to convince herself it was to stay safe but she was jealous. ]

[Pets? Oh dear, David doesn't like that idea. Please don't mean pet in the way he thinks.]

I admit I'd get the jealousy. I've seen it a lot.

[heartstings]

[ Depends on if his mind is in the gutter or not. Because, sure, there's probably some Fae that plays with their humans that way, but most just keep them around for entertainment, feeding, and doing their bidding. Pet is really just a nice way of saying servant. ]

Yeah... I admit that I wanted to be like them.

[ She shrugs. ] It doesn't matter now.

[helpdesk_hero]

Envy like that tends to be destructive. To the people it's pointed at, and the person feeling it. Glad you moved on from that.

[ Kenzi remains quiet, gaze drifting away from David as she feels that familiar guilt crawl up from her stomach and squeeze at her chest. When she looks back at him there's a sardonic smile on her lips. ]

Death has a way of making you move on.

[helpdesk_hero]

I know.

[And it has a way of making people move on around you, whether you want it or not.]

[heartstings]

Anyway! Josh around? I need to give him his gift too.

[ That's enough depressing talk for her. ]

[helpdesk_hero]

Yeah, last I saw he was up in his room. Go say hi.

[heartstings]

Hopefully not naked.

[ Not that she'd be bothered. She offers a wave before turning to go find Josh. ]
