[fairy au] the start

[angstennou]

Who: Fairy!Nephrite and Ami (geniustheveil)
What: Nephrite presenting himself to his new godchild
When: ??
Where: Ami's room?


Nephrite was excited. After a hundred years without being allowed to have a kid assigned to him, he was given a new chance to prove himself. It was a special case, they said. The girl was a little older than the usual, but she was still so lonely that the Fairy Council decided that she could use some company. And an older person might be able to bear with Nephrite.

Seeing the girl alone in her room, he appeared before her, bowing.

"I am Nephrite, godparent at your service."

"I don't have anything to complain about," Ami tells Nephrite loyally. She thinks for a moment.

"Well..." she admits, "There's not really anything else I want." After all, she has loving parents- even if they're divorced - and she lives in a comfortable apartment with anything she needs and most things she wants.

"I just wanted someone to spend time with," she admits. "I thought maybe we could become friends, Does that sound foolish?"

"You don't? But... I got your wishes wrong so far..." The fairy is a bit confused. Most people would be angry at him by now.

Nephrite got a little anxious at Ami saying she didn't have anything she wanted. Did that mean he should leave? If she didn't want anything... But when she voiced a new wish, he lightened up: "No, that's why I am here! To keep you company! ...Until you don't need me anymore, that is."

"Until... I don't need you anymore?" She doesn't like that. Not at all, in fact. It sounds far too much like preparing to say goodbye when they've barely even met yet.

"But I really-" Something about him makes her say a little more than she intended. "I really do need you." Or at least, if he could really become her friend, she doesn't want to lose that. Ever.

"It's what usually happens one day or another. The godchildren grow up or find human friends and don't need fairies anymore.", Neprite explains, looking sad and lonely himself. Then he remembers he shouldn't act so pathetic, or Ami won't trust him!

"But it's okay! Until then, I'll do anything for you!"

"Oh..." said Ami thoughtfully. Yes, godchildren growing older might explain no longer needing fairies. But she wasn't sure, still, that she'd make other friends some day. Even if a fairy was telling her so.

"But I won't stop needing you," she said quietly, catching something of Nephrite's expression.
