forever young, i want to be forever young

She was left with her thoughts quite often, far more often than children should be anyhow. 
But, suppose that is just the thing- they were all children here. Children in many senses of the word, whether in age or just in their namesake- 'The Children'. Of course she had her sister, Kirke, a little purple thing with wings like Father. A curious girl, Potion admittedly liked her well enough, as far as sisters go.

Her aunts and uncles were good company when they could be found, often out on errands or whatever it is that they did. Still, she is just a young girl and there are so many hours in the day, many of them not given the attention that they deserved. Many of them not filled with play or discovery, though there was no lack of things to explore. She still had not stuck her head in every nook and cranny of the Cove, had not yet looked in every tide pool. There was always another and another cropping up.

At first it had been difficult to conduct any sort of expedition, she was so very small. Little legs were terribly flimsy, wobbling about with each step. It just wouldn't do, she wouldn't stand for it and so she had changed it.

Changed, grew, aged. Just a bit, just enough. Father was surprised and pleased but she could not discern which emotion outweighed which.

A simple thought, a request and she wasn't just a babe. Somehow she was older, she was stronger, she was bigger. Somehow she had been a few months old and in moments she was a weanling, she was independent. She was what she wanted to be and that was all that mattered.

Why the man has come, she doesn't know. All she knows is that he is much older than the others, that he is a stranger, that he is new and exciting. He also seems to control a gigantic tidal wave, which only feeds her curiosity. Who is this man? What is he doing? Why is he here? How does he control the ocean?

What she means to do is ask him to play, to ask if she can join him in his game because obviously this was one. That's what she means to do. what she does is entirely different because she so very badly wanted him to say yes.

"Hi, I'm Potion, can I-" That's all that she manages to spit out before the man is changing, before he is becoming a child once again.  That's all she can say as she trots towards him filled with intent on fun times, that's all she can say as the wave rocks. The tidal of water becoming precariously unstable, rolling dangerously close to the the cliffs, the shore on which she advances towards him. It is all, because he changes in the most memorizing way, shrinking and compacting with splendor. She hadn't the chance to watch herself grow and now she was certain she had missed out.
