“Maybe they will, you never know how things interact with us
shadows.” Shalbie said as he took the things the repairman gave him and
absorbed them into his shadowy self. “I mean you know how we are
not entirely solid right , I mean how solid we are really depends a lot
on our light world counterpart.” Shalbie added perhaps trying to teach
the new shadow a thing on how to keep a more stable form.“You
see we shadows are like a manifestation of the sorrows, insecurities,
negative thoughts, and other stuff form our light world counters so
the more they have of those, the more solid we are I guess. I mean
you’d be surprised by how little information there is about our kind in
this land.” He said before he took a sip of his glass of milk. “
Luckily for you I’m here and I’m willing to teach you everything i know
about our kind.”
“Ohhh…” the Repairman nodded. That made sense, actually. Even if he was…less than solid for a different reason, it was surprisingly interesting to learn about shadows.
“Oh, wow! Yeah, that kinda surprises me; this is pretty neat!”
He took a decent swig of milk before continuing. His face turned more serious as he looked at his companion with concern.
“Um…you do know I’m not a shadow, right? I’m just ink…”
He didn’t want to burst Shalbie’s bubble, but he sadly felt he had to before Shalbie tried (and failed) to make a shadow out of him.
