( Susurrus wasn't sure what shape he might find, but this one has a youthfulness, something sweet to it. Yet also something ancient, as with all Omens. His tongue flicks curiously as he absorbs the awareness that he has found what he was looking for, and how to convey why he's sought them out. )

You. Reaching for you. For otherssss like me.

Have you alwayssss been able to sssspeak?

[peripheries]

I think so. Though, I don't often speak out loud. I've found there's benefits to communication without words.

Is the easy reply. He's a quiet omen, rarely speaking to anyone, even Kaworu. But that doesn't mean he doesn't speak in his own way. He's found that the boy often gets muddled by words. It's easier to be direct.

Is speech something new for you?

[possessum]

I undersssstand. And much can be learned by obssserving.

( There's a certain wisdom to be found in staying quiet and watching. It isn't necessarily an absence; he's been right there with Peter this whole time. )

It issss. My boy isss..... fragile. He hassss been nervousss of me. I think he did not wishhhh for me to sssspeak to him.

Issss yoursss comforted by you?

( He's curious of other Omens' relationships to their Sleepers. )

[peripheries]

I try. But he's still learning what it's like to get comfort and be comforted.

In the distant dark, the cat omen curls around himself.

I think comfort can exist beyond words.

[possessum]

I undersssstand. Mine issss, too. Comfort can feel..... frightening for him.

( Whether it's to give or receive it, Peter still so often flinches back from the concept like it hurts. )

I believe ssssso. Sssssilence can be a comfort, if it isssss ssssafe.

....My Sssssleeper is alsssso comforted by food. Doessss yourssss like to eat?

( Because he knows not everyone here does.. )
