Re: Third class, now in elevator
"You're in a rush to try and bring yourself down. Everyone has motivations for what they do. It doesn't make you less of a good person if you got some rewards in the process." Blue shook her head at him, although doing that meant a few curls fell in her face, and she pushed them back. Looking pretty and elegant was important to make a good impression when she came to a wisher, but at the moment it was getting in the way.
"What I mean is ... I'm scared. I was from the moment I showed up here. But I keep feeling like I shouldn't be. There's something in the air ... I can't call it magic." She felt like she would know if it was magic. Then again she was terrible with a wand and only knew how to fling dust in the air. Blue frowned and the more she let her guard down, it settled in more. Relax, it said. Enjoy yourself. How she would enjoy a ghost ship was beyond her.
Oh good, the elevator was not as reassuring as she hoped. Blue glanced up as he smacked the wall, and she rolled her eyes at him. She tapped the wand against the back of his armor, carefully since it was sharp and could hurt him, and it glowed brighter. The lights around them were flickering, but her own wasn't going to go out any time soon. "I have no idea what we'll do once we get to the top. We're not about to jump into the ocean."
She wanted to rest against the elevator wall, glad to have something there, but her wings made that impossible. She leaned an arm to do it instead. His question caused her to look up at him, pensively. "To give everyone their happy ending. I'll be doing this for centuries. There's always a fairy here and there who want to be more like you humans, get married and make endings of their own. It is appealing, but long term, I do more good this way." She never thought to share her heart with a complete stranger, but there were a lot of strange things happening. "What about you?"
