[sometime after Angie's heartgame concludes and he wakes, he will find a long blue feather tucked in his hair as a goodbye.
there is no special power caught in it. it is no more durable than an ordinary feather. but whenever he or anyone else touches it, they feel...a quiet, patient sense of hope. for better days. for relief. for answers. for a smile long longed for. the gentle, stubborn persistence of a bird trapped in a well, despite the hell of despair and grieving souls around her.
the emotion never fades from it, though it fluctuates -- sometimes stronger, sometimes weaker. if he ever thinks to magically analyze it in some way, he will realize that it doesn't actually have multiple uses, though. it's a single use memory where the use is already continuously in progress -- except that it's in linear time. it will take at least ten thousand years for it to finish running down.]
