(Amity's  POV :000 *anime WOW*)

I'd gotten used to the rain here in the human world since it's not boiling, but the coldness of it kinda makes me a little sad, mostly annoyed though. Looking out the car window the rain gently pitter patters on the closed window, feeling a gentle hand run from my thigh to knee I look over at luz. Looking into the back at Hermes strapped into a carseat passed out I snicker slightly

" you know.. I think jess' not made out of palastor wood theory is correct, I have never seen a palisman grow like a child- they're taller than ghost now"

Glancing over at me with a smile her hand squeezes my knee, turning to her I ask quietly

"So where are we headed? You seem awfully quiet-"

Shaking her head slightly she murmurs a quick 'secret' before she smile at me a second time, the rain slowly fades after each mile the car drives on and suddenly we're driving under a sunny cloudless sky. Pulling into a small roadside diner she asks quietly

"Anyone... hungry?"

And hermes is up in a flash being constantly hungry, getting out I open up the backseat door and unclip the seatbelt in the carseat that they're having difficulty with. Sitting in the open seat next to the carseat when I get a call I answer it, sitting beside me as I put it on speaker mode jess asks

"Is luz there with you?"

She laughs wholeheartedly and remarks in a slightly cocky way but pretty much jokingly

"When am I not jess?"

She chuckles slightly, sighing gently there is the sound of paper rustling on the other side.

"So I found out more about Hermes from my father- and he has been filling in details about half forgotten boiling isles history.. they are made of a wood related to palastor wood but what they are made of is shiftor wood instead of being a hard redwood like palastor, shiftor is made of flexible, durable white wood. Used as the exact same purpose as palastor, staff wielders have noticed that their palismans grow from small familiar sizes, to the sizes of average adult men and women- depending on the owners "average". This gives them the ability of their name shiftor... they can return to their normal size but whilst they can turn into any form INCLUDING a human or witch form as a camouflage.. but unlike witches every spell they make is an illusion and therefore.. harmless"

Looking up at me then luz Hermes points at themself confused and says quietly

'I don't even know how..'

Jess ends the call before I can say goodbye, slipping it into my pocket I think a moment

"Maybe you need to just remain focused and think about what you want to take form of, like when conjuring spells"

Looking at me troubled I pet their head, closing their eyes their brow scrunches downward in concentration, after a few minutes of watching them try over and over again they pop into the form of a short brown haired, hazel eyed, freckly four year old girl. The only thing reminding me that this is hermes is the bat hoodie they're wearing, they look uncomfortable at the new form

"Gross.. my hands are tingly"

They grumble slightly as they flex their fingers, luz chuckles gently and wipes a smudge of dirt from their face she never noticed.
