Re: gatsby: mingmei + solas
[When he fell silent, Mingmei didn't really know what to say. Was he going to share the story? But then, he began speaking, and she watched with rapt attention. Her eyes focused on the magic he was creating, watching every move that he made.]
What was their cause? [She spoke the question softly, her voice almost too quiet to hear. Her attention was taken. She'd never seen something quite like that before, and she couldn't really understand it. But she also knew: it wasn't something she really wanted to understand. This was his gift to the world, much like hers was languages and understanding them. His was this magic, his storytelling gift.
It almost made her upset. How could the humans in his world take this away from them? How could they be so greedy to want this and steal it from someone that was not of their own?]
