Nikias pulled out a notebook, making a note, "you like lights?"

"They are pretty." He said looking over to Nikias. "They glow. I glow too. but lights glow different."

"I can show you different kinds of lights. I have a black light that makes certain things glow if you want to see" he motioned to the basement door.

Ash looked at the door. "It makes other things glow? I've never seen that before. Yes."

"Come on" Nikias then led the way down to the basement where his collection sat. He walked past it to a desk where a blacklight sat. He turned it on, sliding a peice of paper in front of it.

Ash watched, intently, wanting to see the paper glow.

The paper, being white, contrasted the purple and appeared to glow.

Ash was captivated, leading down, peering at it. He didn't know paper could glow. He touched the paper lightly.

Nikias made an amused noise, "its the light that does it."

Ash looked up at the light, captivated by that as well. "What else glows?"

Nikias moved to a closet and turned on the light, it was red in there, his room for developing photos the old fashioned way.

Ash looked, before standing and flying a bit to get over. He stepped into the room, and the glow from his antenna and wings turned purple. "It changed my color!" He exclaimed, looking at his wings.

Nikias wrote something down in his notebook, "thats because its a red light"

"I'm not my color anymore! I'm the color of a lilac!" he said, turning around, spreading his wings, and glancing back at them.

"You seem very pleased" Nikias mused.

"Strange! I like the color of lilacs. BUT WHERE DID MY COLOR GO?" He asked, as if it had just occurred to him.

Nikias chuckled, turning the red light off.

"ooh! My colors back!" He said, looking at his wings. "Which color do you like more?"

"I think both are beautiful, why do you ask?" He was sketching a picture of Ash

"Cause like them both. Can't choose."

"I agree" he nodded. "What do you eat"

"bugs. berries. flowers. fabric, if i find good."

Nikias wrote that down, "I might have some fruit in the fridge if you get hungry"

"Good for now. Ate earlier. Lilac color again?" He asked, looking up at the lights.

Nikias turned the lights back on. "Your very interesting."

"Hmm?" He said. "Interesting. Is that like monster, weirdo, or killit? People have called me that before."

"No, as in, something I would keep close and protect. I collect interesting things" He motioned to a glass box that had a two headed snake in it, alive. "I try to keep them alive, but normally… they die from complications that come from what makes them interesting"

"oh- that thing could eat me twice-" Ash said, staying at it. "Fascinating."

"Yeah" he chuckled and reached into the box, picking up the snake. "It is poisonous, so I wouldn't touch it if I were you. but you can look at it."

Ash walked slightly closer. "Does it have two stomachs? If one eats all the food, will the other starve?"
