Year 825, Early Spring
Slime-Craft Guild, Tinker Outpost
- Skyla Noel Gon -

Selena has made it clear that, as I am the one he stole from, I am the one to dole out his punshiment. She has also made it clear that he does not respond to punishment in the usual sense. A task from someone he respects, even if cruel and painful, will be met with enthuasism and may invoke the opposite result. A task from someone he admires however... well, his behavior is unpredictable, wildly in character, and seems to coincide with an ultimate quest for knowledge. The fact that he would go out of his way to provoke me so much means that there must be something he can see in me that she cannot.

His senses are unusual. He seems to instinctively know what he's looking at, but will pointedly turn over whatever he is given. This is not limited to objects and has garnered enough ire and befuddlement that he seems to know what he's doing. The fact that he did not immediately try to turn me upside down was a sign that something was already off, and the bombardment of questions regarding my weapons instead of my form was already too strange for her to understand.

Melvin's punishment will be to be my punching bag at the training tomorrow. I will personally beat his entire sense of self into the dust until I understand his purpose, his weaknesses, and his sight.
