An omelette? What was that? Biaosheng watched the bug lady smile and move about the branch, the god gesturing to her then. "Omelette." He said while pointing at her. She told him he was an omelette, and given he can sense a similar presence from her, that means she too must be one, right?

Sadly, her attempts of trickery would begin to confuse the god. This wasn't adding up. If he was an 'omelette' then why was her name different? Biaosheng followed Savarii's movements with his eyes, not allowing her to leave his sight but as she drew close to Biaosheng, the god instinctively took a step back. Her words oozed with sweetness but if it were so, then why did Biaosheng feel something was impure about them?

The more Savarii spoke, the more Biaosheng's conscious grew and began to tell him that this didn't feel right. He could sense other beings on this tree, some with the same smell as Savarii and some with a sweeter smell. Maybe he should go seek someone else to answer his questions but first, he should at least express gratitude to the goddess. "Thank you for being here for my birth. But I want to learn, from my own experiences." He nodded.

Savarii sighs as he seems more resistant to her trickery and frowns. She decides to just go for the sillier, lesser victory and says. "Yes, omelette... That is the term for you. You have come out of an egg as an omelette... They are all refered to as a brotherhood of omelettes." She explains kindly, her tone not indicating *Any* Sense that she was being facetious or betraying the deep amusement she found in the situation. "Gaia has created tasty little omelettes such as yourself to go out into the world and create~" She whispers enticingly. "It surely must be *Very* Confusing, there is no need to be so stoic and proud..." She murmurs kindly in her motherly tone, reaching towards the new god and reaching for them to gently rub their back, massaging it with her writhing, black hands.

"Oh, I would understand if you want your independence my sweet, dear child~" Savarii says "Every child rushes to go out on their own, but I will be here for you my darling..." She breathes out, leaning right into him to whisper it into his ear. She was so close the buzzing and hissing sounds of the bugs that made up her form could be heard in Biaosheng's ears. "I am here to help, however... Those other Omelettes out there wouldn't have trusted me to guide newborns such as yourself should I not have but the purest heart and maternal instincts among all of them. I hold so much knowledge that I can impart onto you... How to teach your creations, how to structure your world, what to think, what to feel... What is right and wrong..." She whispers. "All you have to do is ask~" She murmurs softly, dancing back in front of Biaosheng.

Now Biaosheng was getting into uncomfortable territory. He tried to remain courteous to his quite obvious superior but her insistence that only she can guide him? It had the water god on edge. And now- STRANGER DANGER STRANGER DANGER SHES TOUCHING HIM!

Biaosheng jumped a little getting his back rubbed, a long, azure draconic tail with a feathered tip swooshing across the branch-ground. It didn't aim to hit the goddess or anything but acted more as a comforting motion for Biaosheng, the tail coming up and curling around his feet. At the same time, Biaosheng had stepped away and turned his front to the insect goddess. "Gaia... The All-Mother." Biaosheng knew that name but her reason for his creation, he had yet figure out.

His fin-like ears went down the closer she got, flicking his head as a result of the intense buzzing in his ear. "I mean no offense, my lady, but I think I can understand why they would be hesitant in your guidance."

"I will keep your offer in mind in the future, should I have any questions about it, but I must decline for now... Respectfully." Biaosheng still couldn't understand whether the goddess truly meant what she said or if this was a ploy to trick him. It does make sense, to find a newborn god and manipulate them from the very start but being born from total darkness — it's really dark inside eggs — and clawing his way towards light, he had to trust his instincts and right now, they're telling him this goddess is not to be easily trusted.

However, she still remained as his superior, thus Biaosheng couldn't afford to anger her or make her feel as if he's disrespected her. He curled one hand into a fist and pressed it against the palm of his other, bowing to her. "I mean no disrespect by my decline. I just would like some time to see things through my own eyes first."

Savarii pouts dejectedly as he refuses her a second time, but besides attempting to guilt trip the "Omelette" By giving him puppy dog eyes (or in this case, sad bug eyes), she maintained her grace and friendly demeanor. "Oh of course, I understand~" Savarii whispers softly, changing tactics. "I am... Used to being rejected so often..." She murmurs "I do not blame you for considering me to be... *Unsettling...* I was not made as... Easy to appreciate as one such as yourself may be. Forgive my pushiness, I merely wish to give new children such as yourself a warm and guiding embrace as they learn the ropes of their poewrs." She murmurs, weaving a pained tone in her voice, yet not making it super obvious, as if she were doing her best to hold back any sadness or dejection. Her voice shook ever so slightly, her eyes broke contact and she looked away... 

The grace and friendliness disappeared, but her behaviour definitely seemed to now be underscored with a more subdued sensation. "Should you ever need me, I shall be here for you and all the new omelettes that hatch~" She coos. "I would be *So happy* To help one such as yourself find your way... Build your realm... Make and teach your mortals... Develop philosophy~" She says, her tone wistful and enticing, dangling the concept in front of Biaosheng like a carrot on a stick. "I have my own home as well, a place where you will always be welcome should you need my expertise and wisdom." She suggests. "But I can not blame a child who seeks independence, I empathize with such a wish."

"Maybe you should consider a different approach." Biaosheng offered some insight, building it off his current experience of 5 minutes of life. "Eager you are to assist, perhaps a more patient approach would bear more fruit."

By saying that, Biaosheng hoped she knew the more subtle message from that. It wasn't her appearance that was off-putting, but her approach and insistence. While such ambition isn't necessarily a bad thing, having only lived for a few brief moments, it would be understandable that it can be perceived differently. "Thank you for being here for my birth. And thank you for offering your kindness."

Biaosheng once more bowed slightly to her, his hair falling forward over his shoulders before he stood upright. If there was nothing more to be said or done, Biaosheng would continue his exploration of the World Tree in search of other beings that could be like him. It would help him greatly to receive different opinions or perspectives.
