Welcome to Gaia! ::

A tiring day it had been already for Fae, it was growing to the point the sun was setting beyond the horizon. Had needed the wall to be examined on the west side of her house in preparation of Rahujo's visit.

Pueblo had taken a nap until she thought it was dark enough, padding through the open door onto the front porch. She gave a little hoot and listened to it echo through the village and listened, complacent with the sound.

Fae looked over and waved for her gryphon. "Hey Pueblo. I see you woke up finally. Foenix had came over awhile ago and picked everyone up. Come over here and help me decide where the stove should go?"

Pueblo looked befuddled- so this is why she couldn't find Nehanda. She had been tricked into sleeping away her play time with her friend! She stretched her wings off her back, front paws craning out before her and drummed her claws against the wooden floorboards. Swishing her tail, she hopped down the two stairs and ran stedfast over to her guardian.
Pueblo slowed her pace and stared at the blank wall absently. What, there was nothing interesting to look at here! She looked up to her guardian boredly, then walked up to the wall and scratched at it. Putting her two front paws against the wall and standing on her hind legs, she engraved a few lines into it, thin foils of the wall peeling away.
Fae watched Pueblo finally step back and admired her chicken scratch. But it wasn't chicken scratch, or at least didn't seem that way. There seemed to be a few lines forming the shape of a star. Fae studied it as Pueblo boredly trotted someplace, staring off into the distance. Fae admired the star before she followed Pueblo's direction of sight; there, she could barely make out the form of a brightly colored creature lanking around Ieyasu's porch. Suddenly, Pueblo ran fast, eventually flying right up to perch behind Ieyasu silently, unoticably.

Now that the waning moon was over, she found it safe to venture from her home or Miefu to associate with the people of Gaia. After all, she didn't want *too* much getting out about her humanity... that would be unsafe.

Appearing about a foot off the ground because of lack of concentration and about twenty feet from the small group, she she grimaced and cursed under her breath as she hit the ground. In her arms was a large basket with red cellophane covering it. The basket was bulging so much with "goodies" that the wrap was barely able to contain everything inside and as a consequence was both stretched and had weird angular edges.

Ah, there she was.. Ieyasu thought as Fae caught up with her charge. He wondered how she would be towards him, considering all that had gone on the last time they had spoken. She had seemed somewhat suspicious of him after Syrenrei's comments, afterall. So it was a mild surprise when she greeted him cordially.
"Hey there." Glancing from Fae to Osu, he grinned slightly. "Yep, that's Osusuki. He gave me a fair surprise this afternoon."

Osusuki watched Pueblo for the briefest of moments. Circling around close to the other Aerandir, he was obviously curious and not in the least bit shy. He just wanted to know what she was. Stopping beside her, he tilted his head, his elegant neck arching as he studied the gryphon. His bushy tail flicked back and forth as he stood there, bold as brass in front of the older Aerandir.

Ieyasu grinned as he watched the Aerandir, keeping a close eye on them in case something went awry. Until someone else close by caught the corner of his eye. Looking up, he spotted the hanyou that he had met a few days ago. She was holding a bulky object, wrapped in red. Gazing at her for a moment, Ieyasu suddenly grinned over in her direction, giving her a nod before turning his attention back to the gryphons. She looked like she was feeling better anyway.

Fae smiled at Ieyasu, eyeing his appearance. She remembered thatlast time she had seen him, he had Syrenrei with him. The fact that she knew he was youkai didn't bother her as much as it intruiged her; the girl was always quick to learn new things. She shifted around uncomfortably for a moment in silence.

Pueblo's head lowered into her haunches, trying to nerve the new Aerandir. Her stark white face didn't seem to be effecting him, but perhaps only interested him. She gave a small trill before her wings unfolded and beated in front of the Aerandir's eyes. Pueblo quickly flew from the ledge onto Ieyasu's shoulder, her wing spand so limited under a sheltered porch.

Fae finally walked up and eyed the new gryphon. "What's 'is name?"She asked before someone was beside her. Startled,she jumped to the side. Syren? Where'd she come from?! And what did she have? "Syren?" She blinked.

"Oh, hello Fae," she smiled brightly, and then looked at Ieyasu. "I brought you this because you helped me." She kept smiling brightly as he held it out, but it was sort of slowly inching its way closer to his lap as her arms wobbled and shook. With the puny twigs of arms she had, it was amazing that she had been holding it out even for a few seconds and not dropping it on his groin.

Fae stared blankly at Syren's greeting as the two demons seemed to have their own moment, going way to slow. She half frowned and looked around idly into the cool night's wind. For once, it wasn't as hot, but refreshing. Strands of her feathery hair flowed around her shoulders and had remembered why she came here in the first place. "Pueblo, you shouldn't run off like that." She held her arms out, ready to catch her.

Pueblo was only slightly larger than the Aerandir, but she clung to his shoulder as best she could with uncontrolled claws. Finally, she found all this movement annoying and polietly flew over to her guardian's out stretched arms.

Fae stroked Pueblo's head softly and walked over to the rail. Hopping upon it, she allowed her legs to dangle, staring off into the night sky along with her gryphon, gently cooing against her chest. She was silent, giving the two privacy. She really had no reason to be here, but she found her surroundings quite comfortable and would wait until an exit gave her reason.

Ieyasu grunted faintly as he took the weight of the basket. Ok. He really was glad that she didn't drop that. It would have hurt. As he went to sit the basket down nect to him, Pueblo abruptly flew off of his shoulder and back to Fae. He glanced after her, noticing that Fae had moved off already. Odd..that was a sudden arrival and departure... He didn't have time to think much further than that as Syrenrei suddenly shrieked out loud and bolted away.

He stared after Syrenrei, his expression seeming utterly confused. What the hell was all that about?

Osusuki was perplexed. He moved after Syrenrei for a short distance, but had no way of keeping up with her. His last attempt at running had ended up with him sprawled over the ground. He stood for a moment watching after Syrenrei. That other new creature had disappeared off too. The only living thing left on the porch with him was Ieyasu. Crowing softly again, he turned, heading back over to his guardian. Managing better this time, he clambered up onto Ieyasu, splaying his white and black wings briefly before folding them against his back.
