Noir… hadn’t actually contemplated his weaknesses during the past two days. He’d been too busy harassing Summer to do as he told her. She seemed to have finally got the picture, and he and his raven were going to be a much better team than Poem and Edgar. Summer obeyed where Edgar did whatever he wanted. Noir was certain the bird would go rogue eventually, the thought amused him.
Right now though, he needed to think about his assignment from Odysseus. Summer rode along on his hips, much like Edgar did with Poem, except Noir forced her there. Her beak was much too close to his eyes when she tried to perch on his shoulders. He tried not to feel so excited about showing her off to his mentor as he walked, only working to further distract him from his mental task. What were his weaknesses?
For the first time in their relationship Noir looked to the young raven for advice. He slowed and turned his blue and lavender gaze her way. ”Summer, what are my weaknesses?” He stopped and stared at her before she answered him. Her eyes seemed to pierce him before she cracked, ”you lack empathy.” She told him critically, rubbing her wing against her breast as though it was still sore from his acts against her.
Noir’s eyes hardened and turned away, his dark paws carried him towards Ody’s position. Of course his mentor was already seated in position. Noir lifted himself up from the slump he had formed on his way here. He puffed his chest up as he trotted up to his mentor with the raven on his hip. ”Hello again, Odysseus.” He offered politely as he stood at attention, forgetting again the whole point of this lesson.
