do you believe you could change me? the way i changed you.
When Roman had heard about he Starpool during the meeting, he had been hoping that it was metaphorical as some things were in religions and such, but as they neared the quite literal pool his stomach began to sink as his heart began to beat quicker, claws retracting, digging into the ground before he stopped. Not too far from the pool itself, but far enough away that he very clearly could not get a shard from the water. Looking around at all of the others around him, he saw that everyone that was getting the shards was actually getting them from the water, not from around the water - figures. The ancestors probably already used up the supply of the shards out of the water long ago, and in the water was probably symbolic somehow anyway.
Ear pinned to the back of his head as he sat there, looking down at his paws, wishing that his powers worked, wishing that he was able to make it so that he could not feel the water around him, but also wishing that he didn't have the fear in general. With a small gulp of whatever was stuck in his throat, the feline would look back up, pleading eyes looking around to try and see an easier way to accomplish his task.
