What is physical attractiveness?

Why am I too young to learn about it? I do not know how old I am.

That's not what I meant. I meant--

I mean, you know how you liked to chase the birds, and look at the trees? You liked to do that, right? Do you remember why you liked them?

And... you didn't know my name?

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

I liked them because they were free, and different from anything in the cage.

We could not understand each other on the island, and I was so happy to see you here I did not remember to ask before.

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

How were they different? You were attracted to them, right?

--Oh. My name is Ico.

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

They were bright and colorful. I liked to watch the birds and listen to the wind in the trees.

Thank you. I am glad to know your name now.

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

So... you like the way they look? They are pleasing to your eye?

I'm glad you know my name, also. I am sad I did not tell you sooner.

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

Yes.

I did not mind. I know now and that is enough.

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

Then they are physically attractive to you. That is what it means: To be pleasing to the eye. Does that make sense to you?

It would be nice to hear you say it... when I come home from exploring. Is that a strange thing?

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

I am not sure, but I will try to understand.

No. I do not think it is strange.

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

Um. Let me try to give you another example. Flowers are pretty things, right? They are physically attractive because they are nice to look at. They are pretty. Make any more sense?

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

I understand now. Thank you for explaining it to me.

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

It's okay.

...I think you are pretty, also.

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

What is 'okay'?

You do?

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

It means that it is not a bother.

Here, Ico, have Yorda covering up her o///o with more questions.

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

Why?

...sigh, Yorda. sigh. .-.

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

I do not know what to say, except... thank you, Ico.

You are the most beautiful person I have ever met as well.

Ico: o/////o

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

...

...I'm coming home soon, okay?

Same for Yorda. XD

[nonomoribird.livejournal.com]

I will wait for you.

[Hades golf-clap goes here]

So the fake-boy-hero does get the girl after all. For now.

[Private to Hades]

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

You wouldn't

--I think that already a lot of people want to hurt you.

Do you need another enemy?

[Private to Ico // hard to hack]

[masterfulflames.livejournal.com]

Since when were we friends?

[Private to Hades]

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

Since never.

Why are you following us?

[Private to Ico]

[masterfulflames.livejournal.com]

Personal entertainment.

[Private to Hades]

[theboywithhorns.livejournal.com]

I do not think I should keep talking to you.

[Private to Ico]

[masterfulflames.livejournal.com]

Right! Sever all connections with the god, don't keep any tabs, we'll talk again in a few months when I've got a hold to your little doll because the foolish fake-hero decided to not talk to the god. Did I get that about right? Yes? Great! Talk to you some other time, kid!
