[ The boy was praying for safe passage on his journey, not for a steady tongue and nerves of steel for a performance of some kind. Although, maybe he could do with a little bit of that before deciding to approach a god. Good thing it was Eddie and not some other one that might be more judgemental about a mortal's delivery.
It would be rude of them to judge so harshly though. How could she blame him - let alone any mortal - for being worried when it came to reaching out to them? It may have been centuries since she had been a human herself but being intimidated, being worried are still emotions that she understands intimately. Her expression softens considerably watching Eddie interact with the boy but her hands don't stop conjuring. ]
Hmm, alright. What about something like this?
[ It's a little silly to be honest but it's the first thing that comes to mind. A blue opalescent shell pops into existence - a music box. When opened several cats lounge lazily by the beach and a little magical apparition appears of the young boy and his mother dancing together along the shore. ]
A little something for her to remember him by if he has to leave again. I'll even wrap it up for him if he wants. [ Her voice lowers to a stage whisper. ] I get the feeling his wrapping is at the same level as his joke telling.
