"Okay. Well, the glass experiment didn't yield a greenhouse effect, so I'll put blocks up. Breakfast!" He makes fruity oatmeal and sausages and biscuits.

"Breakfast!" she says gleefully.

"Have you tried my wings on?" he wonders.

Permalink

"Yeah, they work fine."

Permalink

"Cool. The zombies left a bunch of random junk in my pool, is any of it useful?"

Permalink

"Coins and arrows are. Shackles less so."

Permalink

"It's in a box in my closet if you want any of it."

Permalink

"Thanks. Still enjoying the flame wings?"

Permalink

"Yeah. They burn underwater, it's fun."

Permalink

"It is!"

Permalink

"How come you switched to the ones you favor?"

She stretches them out with a wood-creaking noise.

"They're prettier, and they don't glow, and I'm proud of what I killed to get the materials to make them. And I like the way the cobwebs feel. The flames kind of tickled sometimes, but the cobwebs feel nice."

"...What do cobwebs feel like? I'm not generating an intersection between 'feels like cobwebs' and 'nice'."

Permalink

"...Thin?" she tries. "Light? Billowy?"

Permalink

"Huh. If there's that much variation in what they feel like I might want to try more kinds. Any I should try making? I don't know yet if I can make them."

Permalink

"I bet the Tattered Fairy Wings would be interesting. I know they're made with Black Fairy Dust but I haven't been able to find any yet; I think I need to kill a difficult monster for it."

Permalink

Cam tries to make tattered fairy wings.

Permalink
Nothing doing.

"Maybe it's because Souls of Flight are a component and you can't make those?" she guesses. "What about the Black Fairy Dust, can you make that?"
Permalink

He tries that. "Nope. Sorry."

Permalink

"Oh well. I have a few more pairs you can try if you want, and if you really want to try as many as possible, I know how to make even more and I'd just need to gather the materials."

Permalink

"It's not a looming inadequacy in my life. I got along with my original pair for an unbroken century and a half. But I'll go ahead and try what you've got on hand."

Permalink
"Okay."

She leaves the crafted Cam-wings on the desk and goes to retrieve two more pairs of miniaturized wings: one which look very much like harpy wings, and one which look very weird and vaguely fairyish.
Permalink

Cam peels off the fire wings, ensmallens them, and tries on the other pairs.

Permalink
The harpy wings' feathers are not nearly as soft, but the internal experience is mostly the same, just missing the subtle sensation of the flames.

The other wings have a light, delicate texture like goldfish tails. The smaller sub-wings that sit lower than the main set can be moved independently. Both the main and the smaller wings are more sensitive to slight air movements than the harpy and flame versions, and either because of their lightness or for Terraria reasons they float in the air like fins trailing in water. They are pale blue at the base, shading to nearly white at the thinnest edge.

"The fin wings are pretty, but they drove me crazy," she says. "I can't quite decide whether they look silly or beautiful on you."

"I'm invariably lovely," says Cam loftily. "I think I like the flame better. These aren't going to help my balance at all, too light. Harpy ones make me feel like an angel."
