Val shelved another book, sighing at her long day of work. She slightly regretted taking this job, before she'd just fire her arrows, she didn't have to keep track over everything like this! She stood there momentarily, waiting to see if one of her cherubs would come up to her, chittering happily about something that she'll have to categorize. None of them came up to her, so she decided to take a break and check the progress of her arrows as she spun on her heel and walked back down the way she came.
Jack thumbed a books spine, wondering if he should just take a peak. He looked over his shoulder mischievously before pulling it from the shelve. The moment the book lost contact with the shelve, three angry looking cherubs swooped upon him, chittering angrily. "Hey, hey, hey! Sorry! I'll put it back, see?" Jack replaced the book on the shelf. "No harm done!" He said, holding his hands up, but he cherubs glared at him.
"Girls? What's going on?" A voice rang out from above. Jack looked up to see Val jumping from top of the shelf, curling her wings behind her back so she floated down the ground. When she saw it was him she glared. "What are you doing here?"
"I wanted to ask you something, and I just sorta followed one up your…girls…" He said, gesturing to the angry cherubs before him.
"Their cherubs and these ones are my security, they let me know if someone has been tampering with my books." She explained, crossing her hands over her chest. "Now what do you want to ask me?"
"It's about earlier, about how you said I couldn't actually see you…"
"Yeah, you shouldn't see me the way you do." She growled, stomping away.
"You know, for Cupid, you're not very 'loving', are ya?" He asked, running along the shelf to get in front of her. "Look, I'm new to the cupid thing, so you'll have to explain it to me." He said, trying to get her to stop. She just stomped along.
"Because when people see me, they don't see the real me, they see the person most compatible with them, or somebody whom they love seeing, like an old kind grandma. What you see me as is the actual me." She explained with a huff. "You're seeing the physical me to the last detail, which means I am the person you are most compatible with." She explained.
"Makes sense, I'm Jack Frost and you're pretty cold." He joked, looking at the work the cherubs were doing. Val swiped her wing low, knocking him off his feet.
Sorry it's so short! I"m a little busy and I have to rekindle my love of Jack Frost a bit! Don't blame me! Blame Au NO Exorcist! It's consuming my entire mind!
