:You're a baby god now. You'll be a bigger god later:

Permalink

There's a sort of disembodied-emotion-of-a-shrug feeling, as though saying wordlessly 'I'm going to worry about that later.' 

Permalink

:That makes sense. Is it nice to be a god?:

Permalink

Confusion, puzzling over that for a moment. :Nice : __?: Underspecified question, maybe. 

Permalink

:Do you have any feelings about - how you are, how you're going to be?:

Permalink

Excitement! Curiosity! Anticipation! Sense-of-critically-important! Sense-of-wanting-everything-to-be-good! (The latter two are definitely single basic emotions, to the god, which don't correspond to single basic emotions in humans.) 

Permalink

Oh gosh what good emotions though. :Can you see the future yet?:

Permalink

A little bit! Does she want to see? The sense of something like a metaphorical hand being held out to her, very gently and carefully. 

Permalink

Gosh, yes, she does want to see.

Permalink

The baby god is so careful and so gentle. It sort of - scoops her up, metaphorically, rather than yanking her in - 

- and, without any accompanying sense of disorientation, there's a sudden sense of - foggy silhouettes, something vaguely reminiscent of a city? Un-detailed and hazy, but there are hints at roads, signposts, buildings, doors...

Permalink

:...pretty. What does it mean?:

Permalink

Shifting-perspective again, a sense of - not frustration, exactly, but noticing that it's difficult to convey. 

:Stable paths: vague mental gesture at the roads, :decision-points: signposts and crossroads, :constraints: buildings in the way. Again, none of it is really in words. 

Permalink

Can she read a sign -

Permalink

It almost seems like she should be able too, but then as she tries to go closer, it just gets blurrier and blurrier. 

Permalink

Frustrating. :Can you see detail here? Or is it blurry for you too?:

Permalink

Helpless mental baby-god shrug. :blurry. am too small: 

Permalink

:Soon you'll be big:

Permalink

Anticipation! :!!!: 

Permalink

:Awwwww:

Permalink

The baby god does a sort of mental squirm, shifting. The sense of her own previous question, echoed back to her: do you have any feelings about - how you are, how you're going to be? Then a shift, flipping it to point at her, and :?: 
 

Permalink

:Are you asking how I feel about you or how I feel about myself?:

Permalink

Puzzlement as it deciphers her question, then, :2: 

Permalink

Awwww. :I like how I am and am - excited about how I'm going to be, how I'm going to discover and learn more things and stretch out farther:

Permalink

Bounce bounce bounce! (Metaphorically.) The baby god is so happy, there's a sense of - recognition, something vaguely like pride except more, well, baby-god-shaped. 

Permalink

:That's what you're for, getting more people to that place:
