《Gallinus》7- Name
Advertisement
After the battle, the girl takes me back home.
What did she want to show me? That there is magic in this world?
Well, I can tell that I’m really interested in this.
I wonder if I can use magic too…
As soon as we get home, the girl greets her mother and then we return to the garden.
- What do I do with you… - She speaks while looking at me.
An orange tone is around the girl.
How about teaching me magic?! I really want to try something like this!
- … Ah, I know, why don’t I teach you some techniques?! – She speaks, excitedly yellow. – Let’s see… Let’s start with a simple punch.
That way, the girl switches to her combat position and shows me a punch.
… Do you really expect me to do something like this? Have you seen the size of my wings?!
- Come on, you can do it!
Seeing I am standing still, the girl continues to insist.
In the end, I end up giving up and copying what she does, since I had nothing else to do to waste time.
[...]
The training almost didn’t last an hour, but I was exhausted.
When she realized this, the girl decided to finish today train and take a shower to wipe the sweat.
I can finally wash my wings…
The girl takes me to the wooden bathtub inside the bathroom, where she also takes the opportunity to bathe.
… She certainly has a beautiful body.
With the sunlight coming out of a small window, I could see her beautiful body glowing slightly.
The girl has really clear and apparently smooth and soft skin. She seems to be so fragile that I can’t understand how she has such strength.
I could also see a small scar on her neck when she straightened her long, silky blue hair.

… I didn’t expect her to be so pretty, even though her chest was a little lacking.
The girl doesn’t seem to care about me watching her, since she changed in front of my eyes.
As soon as I finished preparing, the girl picked me up and, together, we entered the bathtub.
- Why are you watching me so much? – She asks me, smiling, as she brings me close. – We will have to train like this every day, until you become really strong, you know?
Oh really? That sounds tedious…
At that moment, the girl’s colors changed to one I hadn’t seen before. It looked like a purple and orange shade were all around her at the same time. They merged and then separated several times.
What does that mean?! Shouldn’t just a color appear around her?!
After some time of hesitations from the girl, who let me enjoy the feeling of the waters in my feathers, she says.
- You know, you are very weird…
Look who says that!
- Yesterday you didn’t seem to hear me or do anything.
Ah, that’s because I didn’t really hear you.
- This morning you finally seemed to understand me, but you still didn’t do anything. – She says, looking seriously at me. – I even thought you would be useless.
Hey, how can you call me useless?! We only met for 2 days! At least, wait for 1 month to say!
- I was wondering if I should go in search of a new animal and let you live with my mother. – She says, smiling happily. – My mom doesn’t have any animals, so I think she would like to have you.
Well, I wouldn’t mind it either, since she wouldn’t make me fight a mutant armadillo!!
- But, something changed my mind…

What would that be?
Although I’m not talking to the girl, I really can’t stop doing these mental dialogues.
Sometimes I even think that she is understanding me.
That was… When you ate catching the corn with your feet.
…That act!? You mean, if I hadn’t done that, I could have been the animal of this girl’s mother?! Ah, I knew I should have eaten like a chicken, but my pride wouldn’t let me…
- At that moment, I decided to continue training you… Although you refuse to fight.
I would never fight against that, just give up.
- And haven’t seen you use any of your skills as Gallinus…
Eh? Do I have any skills? Something like that magic from before and I don’t know?
The little hope got me excited, but soon this animation ended, when I notice something.
… Wait, Skill like Gallinus? Wasn’t Gallinus my name? So is this some kind of race or something?
I really believed that was my name. In fact, it sounded very good.
Does that mean I don’t have a name?!
I don’t know if this girl, for the first time, could understand my feelings, but she finally noticed that detail too.
- I to give you a name! – She exclaims as she gets up from the bathtub.
I can see the crystal water running down your smooth body, down to your legs that are still in the bath.
She slowly gets out of the bath while carrying me and goes to the towel to dry us.
- But what name would I give you….
I don’t know about that, but won’t you continue your story? At least, tell me my skills!
- I wanted to give a name with your characteristics, but you don’t even make noise.
… You are right, why do I never express my emotions on my face?
I always say a lot in my thoughts, but I never express them.
… I think I was always like this?
Well, it’s not like I really care about.
- A name for a Gallinus… A name… I know! You’ll be called… José!
… What?!
- Not just José, but José Galize!
Why should I have a last name!?
Since she can’t hear me, that’s the name decided by the girl.
