Welcome to Gaia! ::

Why did she keep getting involved in these things?

It was the first thought that had popped into her head after returning to Amityville from that...place, she wasn't even sure what had happened. There had been a group of goddesses, and a really gloomy city that was desolate and horrible. She shuddered at the thought.

But she was back now (thankfully), and on the hole she didn't feel as bad after such a experience as previous trips. To celebrate her safe return, the fae had fluttered into one of the leafless trees outside amityville, holding a small flute in her hands as she blew softly. Her tunes were still a little jerky at times, random shrill noises happening every so often, but she was getting the hang of it. It was a relaxing hobby, the music she made taking her mind off of disturbing memories and taking her back to the memories of the forest she had lived in, and the many tunes that were played there regularly by more experienced flute players.

The feelers upon her head twitched and perked at the sounds of a taxi, followed by lots of yelling. What the words were Astra had no idea, but she put her flute away in order to get a better look. Hopping down to a lower branch allowed her a birds eye view of the cabbie as he threw out some luggage, and left behind a small boil to boot.

Wow, talk about a rough welcome.

"That guy was a royal jerk." She announced, making her presence known as she hung off the tree by her knees, getting a look at the boil upside down. "Throwing all your stuff like that." Big round eyes regarded the boil for a moment, noticing the large bow and overall fluffy appearance. She then flipped, landing in front of him with ease.

"Hi!"

Astra had to take a minute to try and figure out what 'Xiaojie' meant, and when she couldn't, she became suspicious. Was he calling her short in another language? Because he could be, and she wasn't about bow down to some other boil especially if he was going to insult her.

So when he demanded her to carry his bags, she folded her arms, looked at him suspiciously, and asked him in a curious manner.

"Why"?

Perhaps she could have a little fun with him? Clearly she was in no trouble of him hurting her, so for once she had the upper hand. And she wanted to keep it as such.

"Well, I don't want to either." Astra countered. "I'm only small, and my wings can't lift heavy things. Why should I have to life them?"

Instead of appearing offended by this comment (even if she was, she wasn't bout to show it), she just laughed at him, a childish giggle at his antics.

"hehe hee! if I'm so useless, how come you're the one asking me for help? What does that make you?" She said with a mischievous grin.

"Well I'm above this peasant work too." Astra said, holding her nose up in that snobbish way she'd seen demons do before. "Cause I aint no peasant. I, am a third year student." She looked back at the boil, her grin never leaving her face. "So that makes me automatically better then you, peasant!" Oh yeah, she was so much better then Li that she used the same name calling tactics he did.

"Plus, your mama isn't here to say otherwise."

Though she was still being called a peasant, the fact Li Shou had admitted she was 'higher ranked', made her beam in silent victory. This kid was alot of fun, she would have to hang around him more.

She could see though he became rather sullen, and as he walked off to carry the large (and heavy) amount of luggage around, she stood there frowning. It wasn't as if she could help him carry his things around,...ah! She knew what to do.

The fae was gone in a blink of an eye, zooming into the school hallway. She was gone a few minutes before returning, complete with a group of about 5 gnomes.

"Go help that kid take his stuff in." She pointed.

"Why should we?" The scoffed. After a few well aimed leaf blades their way, they begrudgingly walked over to Li Shou. "Hmph. We do we take this?" They didn't look pleased.

"They aren't my friends." Astra chirped back as the gnomes grumbled and groaned. "They're everybody servants."

"Who said we were - OW!" A unlucky gnome went to argue his point but barely missed getting his head cut off. "Argh, stupid pain in the a** students. Why did I sign up for this anyway." He continued to grumble while picking up the suitcases and dragging them towards the demon dorms.

"Sometimes you need to make sure they're listening." She replied to Lou while waving a hand about, a few green leaves held in between her fingers. Oh and you gotta watch them carry your stuff otherwise they might chuck and break it." The fae decided not to care too much about the boils insults. She could just insult him back anyway.
