[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 7171096, member: 4936"] Icosa regards the angry man impassively, then climbs down to help. He doesn't offer a comment to defend himself from the disdain, nor address it, nor correct the man. His experience with such outbursts was that they passed with time, and that speaking directly to them was unproductive. Collecting some boxes, he takes them to where they are being gathered...then pauses, his head tilting back and canting to one side. His first reaction: Self-assessment. Was he perceiving a pattern that was not actually there? He had often heard other beings describe seeing images in clouds, or on otherwise random phenomena like forests seen at a distance or cliff faces. He himself did not seem to make those associations automatically, though he could see the patterns when pointed out to him. He had never thought he'd heard his name in the random murmurs of a crowd. This didn't necessarily mean he was incapable of such fallacy though; merely that he hadn't encountered the stimulus that would provoke that reaction before. Looking around, he verified no one else seemed to be reacting to voices on the wind. The conclusion was that it was either a phenomenon he alone was equipped to perceive or a false positive on otherwise perfectly ordinary sensory input. Was this what he was here for? Icosa paused in his labors and listened, struggling to filter out the random noise from that elusive voice that danced just on the edge of perception. [/QUOTE]
