Connie Suttle Here's the latest snippet:
"If you're going to be my assistant in the shop, we'll have to do something about your wings," Lafe mused while studying my feathers. I pulled them tighter against my body, suddenly terrified. Would he cut them away? I backed up and into Terrett.
Waving a hand and shaking his head, Terrett let me know that cutting my wings wasn't an option. Lafe verified Terrett's denial. "I think we should dye them, perhaps. Along with your hair. What you have will stand out anywhere. We don't need to stand out. I imagine that black wings won't raise such a fuss—I know of some who've had mechanical black wings grafted upon their backs and they fly—after a fashion."
"But," I began. How was he going to dye my wings black? Dyed hair was common; wings were not.
"I'm a master at mixing inks and dyes," Lafe lifted a dark eyebrow as he studied me. "My tattoo colors are the best. That's why my business is so good. I figure we'll have to dye your feathers every three or four eight-days, just to ensure that they stay black," he mused as he walked around me.
"What's your name?" he asked as he faced me once more. For a moon-turn, he'd allowed me to mourn while Terrett did his best to feed and clothe me properly. Now, it was time to repay Lafe's generosity.
"Uh, Quin," I hung my head.
"No. Quin it is not. After we dye your wings black, that will be your name. BlackWing."
