【战锤40k同人作品翻译】Ennui 第十章：慰籍 Comfort(11)
“Am I not beautiful, Alessandra?” I asked in a soft whisper, using her given name for the first time, and it seemed to snap her attention back to my eyes. “Damned and beautiful, like all of my wretched kind.”
“Stop,” her voice came out weak and strained. “W-Whatever it is you’re doing to me… stop.”
I raised an eyebrow, chuckling as I shook my head and sat back down in the water.
“I’m not doing anything to you, Cre’yth,” I said simply, “I do not possess that power, the Drukharii, the Aeldarii where I am from, eschew the more eldritch powers of the warp in favor of physical perfection…” I held out my arms again, letting her admire my lithe figure, “I can dance between storms of your bolter shells, but I can no more manipulate your mind than I can cast lightning from my fingertips.”
“I thought all Eldar were psykers,” She looked more confused than anything but, to my surprise, she actually seemed to be listening. “Yet you claim you are no psyker at all?”
“All Aeldarii are psychically sensitive,” I corrected, leaning back into the water languidly. “My kind can draw sustenance from emotions and intense sensations as much as food and drink, but we purposefully refrain from using anything like the powers you so fear.”
“Stop,” her voice came out weak and strained. “W-Whatever it is you’re doing to me… stop.”
