It doesn't work? Well, okay. I'll be by in a few hours.
[And true to her word Airy comes by Persephone's place, pushing the doorbell in with her foot as she hovers in place. Thanks to the chilly temperature she's bundled up in a jacket with equally small matching mittens and a hat. Hopefully she wouldn't be waiting outside too long.]
[ The sound of the doorbell is met with the sound of a barking dog, frantic and excited. Soon after the door is opened. Persephone blinks, confused when she isn't met with someone standing at roughly her level. Cerberus notices Airy first and jumps up, teeth snapping at her.
Persephone is quick to react, arms wrapping around the hound's neck as she pulls him back. ]
Stop that. [ Her gaze turns up to Airy. ] Sorry, um... Wow, you're a lot smaller than I expected.
[Airy's certainly not expecting a dog of any sort to suddenly leap at her and she's fluttering frantically out of reach when he lunges toward her. Frazzled she looks between the dog and Persephone, little fists at either side of her.]
I-I get that a lot... [That she's small.] He wants to eat me!
Oh, um, he won't. Promise. [ She shoves Cerberus down the hall toward the garden. He can just sit his butt out there while the two of them go into the kitchen. ]
You must be chilly, go ahead and head inside. [ She motions her head toward the second set of doors behind her that leads into the kitchen. ]
[She better promise...the last thing Airy wanted to do was to have to use magic to bind the creature in place if she didn't have to. Nodding cautiously she hurries herself inside, relieved that it's far warmer already. Off her gloves come as she peels one off after the other, her hat following suit as she waits for Persephone to join her.]
[ Persephone ensures Cerberus is settled into the garden with a few of his toys before making sure the side door is shut and follows Airy into the kitchen. ]
He shouldn't bother you while you're here. [ She says, trying to be reassuring. ]
Let's get you some cake, yeah? I apologize for the size, if I'd known you, um, smaller I'd have made miniatures.
[Setting her mittens and hat down she takes off her coat, revealing a simple white dress. The coat too gets folded and set down as she comes to stand atop the table. She's small, about a foot and a half tall, and sure, the cake will be quite big comparatively, but that just means more cake, right? No problem at all. She's even come prepared! Out of her equally small side bag she pulls a cutlery set that's been sized just for her, courtesy of Jacob.]
[ Persephone sets the cake on the table and cuts a slice for Airy. Her little cutlery set is adorable, but Persephone tries not to make a big deal of it. She's sure she gets enough of that kind of thing from people. ]
Do you like tea? I have a few different types to choose from.
[There are two reactions Airy gets from people - either they find her adorable and harmless thanks to her size or they are wary of her because of what she is. Thankfully it's been the former lately.]
Oh I do, yes. I'm not picky...but could I have honey and milk in it?
[While she may not be exactly like the elemental fae who lived in the depths of Luxendarc's forests she was still a fairy. They did enjoy their dairy and honey, perhaps a bit too much.]
Milk and honey with it... [ She trails off with a hum as she goes to sort through the cabinet. She's not kidding when she says she has quite the variety. After a few moments, she decides to just go with a classic black tea. Something that won't fight with the flavors of the cake. ]
I suppose you're in luck that I keep bees. I always have honey ready. At least, now she does. [ Prior to moving out of the apartments, she didn't have anywhere to keep her bees. ]
[That gets Airy to straighten, having seated herself back on her heels. Gods are nothing new to her, being the spawn of the God of Destruction herself. How curious.]
I-I see...I didn't realize I was in the presence of a Goddess.
[Airy may be a menace and a destroyer of worlds, but she knows how to respect her (assumed) superiors.]
[ It probably helps that her mother raised her in a way that could only be described as a god trying to raise a mortal. That is to say, she was never really given the chance to be a true goddess. Always told to hide the true extent of her abilities and do things her mother's way. ]
Indeed, we are. [ She sighs.
A few moments later she returns to the table with a tray laden with all they need for tea. ]
Oh! I have some shot glasses. [ She sets everything down and goes to locate one. ]
I'll have to find some cups and whatnot in your size to keep around for visits.
[ She smiles as she returns and fills the glass with tea for Airy. Not too full since she still has milk and honey to add to it. Once it's prepared she sets it next to Airy's plate. ]
[She leans over to blow at the glass, not moving to grab it just yet. She'll let it cool a bit for now. The main reason she came here was for the cake so that's got her attention more than anything.]
[ She's quiet for a moment, turning over the bit about Airy having nowhere else to go other than here. There are a few things those words can mean, though in her experience it means she's either dead or her world is simply gone. ]
I see. I'm also surprised I've been away from home as long as I have. Before this place, I spent half a year in another world.
[Dimension hopping and time travel shenanigans aren't new to Airy in any capacity. Still, she can't help but be curious about what world (or worlds) others may have come from.]
What was it like compared to what you were used to?
[ She bobs her head in a nod after a bite of cake. ]
Very different. The world was more futuristic than here though no less obsessed with sex. It was more colorful, this place is so deary in comparison. [ She sighs. ]
The weirdest thing about it was that we were tied to one of the three moons and would change every month when the moon was full. Physical and mental transformations that some might liken to, what were they again, werewolves? Though a wolf was only one transformation.

[That gets an involuntary flutter out of Airy's wings as she looks up at Persephone, genuinely curious. She wasn't expecting that.]
Is it difficult?
no subject
[ She flashes a smile as she goes about preparing the tea. ]
Not really, then again I am the Goddess of Spring and can create bees. They're almost like an extension of myself.

[ Persephone is paying more attention to preparing tea than Airy's body language, otherwise, she might have laughed. ]
It's not really a big deal, especially here. This place has no use for me beyond the purpose of us all being here.

no subject
A little over a year, yourself?
no subject
[There's a small sigh out of her as she reaches with her little fork to chip off a bit of the cake.]
I suppose I can't complain, seeing as I've nowhere else to go rather than this dimension, but I'm surprised I've been here for as long as I have.

[That's, uh, unexpected for a few reasons. As far as Airy's concerned this is incredibly futuristic. What could possibly qualify as more?]
That does sound strange. Did it also affect you as well?
[She expects it would've and she can't help but be curious as to what Persephone would've transformed into.]
