Her nose twitched as the heavy scent of rain in the air, the air itself seemed grouchy. Her nose wrinkled as her orbs looked to the sky with a curious arch of her brow. A storm as summer was slowly coming to an end, she couldn't wait! She leaped from branch to branch as she then leaped down into the open pathway, she needed a better seat for the show that looked as if it was going to start at any moment. The dreams she was busy weaving would be threatened by the storm and those who now slumbered but she could weave her magic stronger while she enjoyed herself. It didn't always work, but it wasn't her job to make others slumber or to keep them slumbering, simply to help them dream.
Her long fluffy tail flicked out behind her as she pounced this way and that with soft laughter as she moved.

His ears flicked once they picked up a familiar sound, a gentle, melodious sound of some gleeful girl. He turned his head in the direction of the laughter, quickly noticing the glinting of pale light in the shadows. He kept the moving form in his sight as he made his way towards her, the ends of his lips forming a pleasant smile on his face. 'Speak of the devil,' he thought, chuckling to himself. It certainly surprised him to see her out and about, just when he was thinking of her, too. Well, more specifically, he was thinking about those dazzling stones, but the female who bore them was just as interesting. She was whimsical, though he could pick up on a deeper meaning to her words no matter how light and carefree her tone. He recalled that she also told him he was interesting, a compliment he accepted. He was fond of the fact the 'galaxies in his fur' could mesmerize her as the night sky mesmerized him. And here she was again. What were the odds?
Orias eventually came within earshot of her. "Devika?" he called. "Is that you springing about?"

At the sound of another voice, a very familiar voice she froze in mid motion, on her back paws, front paws angled in the positions she was about to use them in, her tail snaked out behind her as her ears twitched and her head turned. A smile tugged at her muzzle as she grinned like she held some secret of the world, she didn't move a single muscle more than that as she eyed the familiar male. He was so very interesting and between him and what the sky promised, she all but buzzed with wonder.
"Well I was until someone caught my attention Mister Orias.." She teased with a laugh.

His lips parted, twisting into a grin as he continued to close the distance between them. "I'll try not to distract you too much from your play time," he returned with a light laugh, happily playing along with her razzing. He finally stopped just couple feet away from her, looking down into her eyes which shined just like the gems she bore. He tilted his head to the side, heavy hair eagerly submitting to gravity's pull. What a curious thing, she was. "It's been some time since we met," he began, gesturing to the east with a nod of his head, "and some distance. What brings you out here?"

"Oh what a wicked thing to say!" She smirked. "Surely you could simply join me in my games..They are generally much more fun when you have a partner." She fell forward, her tail snapping out behind her before curling up her back, the tip resting on her head and tapping against her crown. "Mmm I travel many places, one cannot stay in one area to long without going mad. But the sky has and the air, it seems grotchy." She nipped at the air before her, her gaze then shifting over to him with her brows furrowed. "I see again you do not slumber... Naughty boy."

"Can't argue with any of that." Games were more fun with a partner, but what exactly did she want to play? Cat and mouse perhaps? He eyed her a moment. She would win every time, so small and fast. She could outpace him without much effort, not to mention she could fly. His attention shifted back to the sky and the impending storm looming just over their heads. "Yeah, and hopefully we're safe and sound away from all of that before it starts." He looked back at her, smirking. "And maybe I'll sleep then. No rest for the wicked, darlin'," he winked. "After all, who'd pick sleep over the pretty lady who never sleeps, hm?"

She tilted her head to the side, "Arguing with me is futile.." She grinned as she turned herself towards him, lowering her front half and letting her rump wiggle behind her. "Oh, but I want to see the show!" She exclaimed as she lifted her face towards the sky, her tail wiggling behind her just as she jumped towards him with a laugh. "It's going to be amaaaazzzziing!"

He did not actually expect to be the mouse. He grunted as she slammed into him, and he carried their weight down into the grass. He controlled the fall, for the most part, managing to land on his side relatively gently with her on top of him. It was then he realized how disheveled his hair had become from that little mess. He cast a sheepish look at Devika before shaking his hair back into place. That little lady was smart to keep her hair tied in that neat braid. It would certainly make these games a lot easier. "How do you figure?" he asked. "You like the lightning shows?"

"Because sooner or late you'll be doing it anyways... I'll dance you into playing my game." She grinned down at him, her wings fanning out behind her as she eyed his coat once more, it was so interesting and beautiful and yet...she didn't know how to explain it. She merely grinned at him and bobbed her head up down rapidly. "Oh I do indeed, I get all...jittery and.." She jumped away from him and zipped around, "..feel alive!"

He always found her cryptic word curious, squinting at her face as though looking for some deeper meaning behind those dazzling, glowing eyes and gems. He was only granted a few moments of scrutiny before she darted away from him, dancing over the ground with boundless energy. "How can one so small be so energetic?" he asked aloud, rising to his feet and following her lead as she weaved over the grass. "You'll tire me out if you keep dancing like that," he returned with a light chuckle. With that, the first crack of lightning flashed, lighting the sky. His neck straightened, alert, then relaxed when the roaring thunder sounded. He sighed, turning his attention back to Devika. She had a point. Every bolt of lightning seemed to send a shock down his spine, one that caused his muscles to tense and his senses to sharpen. He became more aware of himself and the world around him, more alive, if you will. His lips curled back over his teeth and he laughed once more. "Maybe the lightning has its charms," he conceded.

Her eyes widened as she let out a purr of delight as the sky seemed to come alive as the bolt danced across the angry looking clouds, she all but shuddered from the effects of it. Her eyes found him, a smile played across her features as it seemed the world around them changed as the thunder made the earth under her paws tremble, she found herself trembling as well. "If you sleep, I'll find you in your dreams.." She purred at him, but as another bolt clawed at the sky, her heart thudded in her chest as she found herself picking her way towards him carefully.

"Well, I won't be sleeping with that racket," he laughed. Either way, he did sit down, thinking the more grounded position would calm his nerves. He closed his eyes, still able to see the flashes of light beyond his eyelids, feeling the thunder shake him to his very core. They must have been quite close to the storm in order to feel its effects this strongly, though he did not mind as much. This little female was causing him to find some appreciation for this clouded sky obscuring the stars. After a few breaths, he opened his eyes once more, finding that Devika had moved closer to him. It was then that he realized how curious her statement was. It did not seem like some poetic metaphor, but a solid statement. He flicked his ears, raising an eyebrow. "Visit me in my dreams, hm?" he asked quizzically, as though he were playing along with her game. "How're you gonna do that?"

She sat herself close to him, while she loved the storm over head, it was indeed very close and startled her a little bit. The tops of her ears coming up to the point of his chin, she was a pint sized wonder. At his question, she looked up at him, head half cocked to the side as she pondered telling him. Normally she dismissed such questions and only tossed back one of her own, but she liked him and his starry coat. "Dreams are what I do, I spread dreams around..." She always felt weird coming out per say, "I am the Goddess of Dreams." She wondered how he would respond, the response is normally why she kept hush on it, she was ashamed of who and what she was, more-so she preferred the pure untainted encounters with mortals and half-lings.

He blinked. 'Oh, well that explains a lot,' he thought to himself. Who would have thought such a little thing could be a powerful goddess? He supposed that is what he got for making assumptions of others before truly knowing the facts about them. Now that he thought about it, the glowing stones and eyes; her enigmatic sentences; and her comments about him not sleeping should have been indicators of something greater, though he simply thought he was playing along with a more zany personality like himself. He found himself feeling incredibly small in the presence of such a being, despite her tiny stature. How interesting. "Goddess, huh?" He smiled. "Dreams..." he tested the word, letting it hang in the air, trying to figure out how to appropriately respond. She seemed so comfortable before, carefree and unconcerned. He did not want that to change unless she wished to have more respect. Regardless of this new information, she was a Goddess before she revealed herself, so why should their current dynamic change? The last thing he wanted was for her to be uncomfortable, so he nosed her gently, an attempt to show her his sincerity. "I'll be sure to sleep someday so you can visit me there." he finally stated with another smile, tail bobbing behind him.
