Head still cocked, he stared at the page without seeing it.
She could hear the shadows then? Or did she mean her mind?
Her mind. That, now that was...awful to listen to. It was nerve-wracking if he focused on that chaos for too long. His heart pounding, shudders down his spine, a frightened little rabbit cornered by a wolf. It didn't do well to focus on it; it unnerved him and spiked his anxiety when he did.
Not that he could completely ignore it, or would ignore it. Ignoring the worst parts of her would do her a disservice, but he usually tried to keep his attention on her actions, what she chose to do instead of how she felt or what she thought. That was a mark of her character, what she was.
"Oh, I'm sorry," he said after a long moment, realizing he'd spaced out. Whether it was for dredging up darker thoughts or for reading the answers to the jokes too soon was left for her to decipher.
Quiet. Quiet. Her mind had never once been quiet. It pounded like a drum, thrummed with screams. An ever present chorus of pain and want and darkness. Her brows knit. "It doesn't say anything good. It whispers of death and pain and how to cause it. It never stops, it's never sated." Even killing enemies, taking her thirst out on them... it wasn't what was wanted. It wanted innocence. It wanted to watch horror and realization creep into the face of a child, of a tender healer, of someone gentle like Cole. Betrayal made the violence taste all the sweeter. It made the flicker of life being extinguished into something beautiful.
A wave of nausea washed over her and her eyes pressed shut tightly for a moment. No. No. No. No. Never that. She would never do that.
How quickly he went back to the riddles. Her pencil continued to gently run along the page, it had frozen for a moment. But, she kept working on her sketch. "Mm. What has roots that nobody sees, is taller than trees, up up it goes, yet never grows?" A little pause. "A mountain. ---Though, you know, typically in a game of riddles, you make the other person try and guess the answer."

Things that make Cole cranky:
Treating him like a child. He's a grown man. He has moments were he can be naive but he isn't someone that needs to be babied. Treating him as such annoys him and he may avoid the offender for a bit. Being a spirit doesn't mean he needs to be coddled.

Open RP; Cole
Tumblr media
"Shadows are the historians. They speak of the owner's lives and deeds." It's up to the owner as to whether or not the shadows spoke well or ill of them.
Tumblr media
"Sometimes I understand, and sometimes they speak in languages lost to time." Everyone's shadow was different, but the silent ones unnerved him the most.

//Cole is definitely outliving his friends and loved ones. He ages slowly compared to mortals. Maaayyybe not as much as Solas, I don't think, but it's really fucking slow.
And while I have him going the more human route, I still think he just reforms in the Fade as a spirit again if/when he dies.
