They didn't. It was.. mostly work in Elpis. And when Hermes did have us go "play", it was mostly just us going on walks which.. isn't that different from work. Not that I minded, I was happy so long as I was with Hermes.
I don't mind. You're right, Hermes is the one who created me. [ she seems so happy to talk about him too. ]
Hermes had a project with me and my sisters... It's the reason why I'm an Entelechy, that way we're capable of communicating with... any intellectual being, even if we don't know their language.
I'm supposed to stay by Hermes side though.. it's through me that he's able to talk with my sisters on other stars.
That's right. My sisters and I... we're all the same. That's how we can... communicate. I can feel another's feelings, their emotions, their thoughts... and I can also.. project my own, onto them.
[ wings perk up, fluttering a bit. ] Only with.. permission though. It makes it easier.. for me to talk that way. Hermes wants me to practice a lot doing it but, I can't here.. not at the moment. [ her pauses and stuttering is still apparent with her voice. ] Talking like this is.. difficult for me. But everyone has.. been patient with me.
[ she perks at that. ] You too? We.. really are similar. [ and that makes her incredibly happy, by the smile on her face. ]

Thank you, Meteion. And there sure are, aren't there? Have you ever seen any of them before?
no subject
[ she also has appie juice for them both ] I did play a little bit of them earlier... like "Hungry Hungry Hippos"!
The "Hippos" got a very big feast.

I guess they didn't have anything like this in Elpis, huh?
[there is something they want to talk to her about, but first, this very important subject.]
Oh? That's good to hear. It sounds like they were very, very hungry!
no subject
[ she laughs a little at that. ]
They were! They ate everything!

Hermes is your... creator, right? Emet-Selch told me a bit about your situation... I hope you don't mind.
What sort of work were you involved in? Did it have to do with the energy you interact with?

in a sense, that kind of adoration is familiar, but not.]
Your sisters? [they pause.] Emet-Selch mentioned you were in tune with emotions—is that what you mean?
[...]
We really do have a surprising amount in common, Meteion. You see, I was created by the researchers of my planet as well.

[they nod.]
I'm composed from the power of spirits. Though I can only experience their thoughts and emotions and not other beings', so you have me beat there.

[ a small smile at the end of that comment. ]
But, that still means you're an entelechy like me! Do you have.. a mission too?
no subject
[... well, best not to tell her about the actual circumstances of their creation, probably.]
Not quite. I'm meant to be something like an energy source, you see.
