"Agreement?" Colin frowned thoughtfully. "Hm. Ah, that. If you recall, that agreement consisted of you screaming at me never to 'set hoof within my presence again, you foul reject of the gods' or something similar. Truth be told, I wasn't really listening. Why on earth would I have listened to that? Must have been some more pressing incident," he mused. "Anyway, I have feet now, not hooves." The glow left his eyes again. "Have we met? Who the hell are you?" Colin demanded.
Jaberien groaned and lay down.

Ophiuchus blushed slightly with embarrassment and indignation, but it quickly passed. He felt the power fluctuations, and looked down at Colin, who was back to his old self. "What do you think?" he asked. "Never mind. I doubt your type would care."

Colin's brow contracted at that. "I think you're related to Ialo. You look like Ialo. And just what do you mean by 'type'?" he asked suspiciously.
"Nobody likes Jabezrien, nobody likes me..." said individual hummed to himself sadly.
"For the last time, be quiet!" Colin snapped.

"Yes, I am related," Ophiuchus noted somewhat sadly. "A shame the firstborn male is so unworthy to be my successor." He shook his head and clucked sadly. "And by your type, I mean people who could care less about others that do nothing for them." He cast a silencing spell on the former elemental.

"So, I take it you're making it clear you'll do nothing for me?" Colin asked in amusement. "Will you at least tell me where I am, and how I got here?"
Jabezrien tried to answer and found that he couldn't. Oh no! First I'm human and now I can't talk! Nuuuuuu! He started running around and around in a panic. Help! Help!

Luna blinked. A fingernail-sized chunk of snow had fallen on her nose, which was freezing. Once her nose was cold, her entire body would be in short timing. She turned from Ialo to Shuusuke and back before sighing loudly. She almost wrapped her arms around Ialo, but realized he must be more reserved around strangers.
She skipped to the next best thing.
She turned politely to Shuusuke and nodded, "Excuse me," and turned back into the forest. She wasn't really using her common sense, but every slight caress from the forest's arms pained her because of the change in temperature. She decided to shake it off and curled around a thick tree. "Hm," she hummed as she closed her eyes while she cuddled around the trunk. She blinked once before closing her eyes again. It was worth a try.
Luna concentrated on phasing only one part of her body: her hair. Which actually worked, she hadn't known she could do that.
Her silver hair became longer and her hands instinctively brushed through it around her body. It had become thicker; wolf's hair. It kept her warm.
Her cheeks were usually pale, but right now they were a soft pink, along with her rosy pink nose. It stood out in her hair-covered body, but she didn't notice as she huddled in the surroundings of her surroundings.
-
"Damn it!" she breathed. She was using that phrase too much, it was going to get boring after a while. She wasn't much of a sailor-mouth, but she needed to let off steam once it came around. "Ugh," she groaned as she pushed herself from her sitting position. She began roaming the halls. "I don't need these people," she said to herself. Talking to herself, that was the plan now. "I don't even need to spare them a glance. They don't deserve my eyes on them even for a split second," she said, beginning to place one foot in front of the other as she walked. Elegant was the word people close to her gave her. Snobby is the word most people around her gave her. She began whistling and twirling spare pages in the air that had lingered around her after the library incident. Her song switched from Beethoven's symphonies to Three Days Grace and back again after each song finished. She ended up outside, but not out of the school. It seemed like a small garden; very beautiful. It was very cold as well. She hugged herself as she sat. It was snowing.. she stared at the white specks in awe. She hadn't ever seen snow before.

"I said no such thing," Ophiuchus countered, highly affronted. "You're in South America, near the western edge of the Amazon rainforest. I'm assuming you got here by teleportation. Ah, hold that thought." Jabezrien was beginning to get on his nerves, so Ophiuchus waved his hand slightly, and stones from the temple jumped up to trap the annoying being, encasing all but his head.

Ialo was startled by Luna's abrupt departure. He looked from her retreating figure back to Shuusuke, and mouthed an apology before taking off after her. "Hey don't go!" he called after her. "I thought you didn't like the cold!"

Luna's eyes opened as she heard Ialo's voice. His scent was stronger in the cold, she realized. It was probably that she was so cold that she couldn't smell the forest or animals around her. Right?
Her face lifted itself from the waterfall of silver hair that fell down until her ankles. Her entire face was a soft shade of pink now, and her eyes looked almost like liquid. She licked her lips to prevent them from cracking as she spoke. "If I were able to like it, I probably would," she said softly. It was true, the only thing that was keeping her from enjoying the change in temperature were her animal instincts. The wolf in her didn't enjoy being frozen. If she were all girl again, she would take advantage of it all. Not shun from it. "But right now, you're right," she said, looking down. Luna never did like what she was. But she needed to bite the bullet. "I don't," She looked up at Ialo and smiled. Her right hand lifted and patted the ground beside her. "You could probably fix that, my little heater." she said, almost cooing near the end of her sentence. Luna smirked.

Colin chuckled at Jabezrien's plight as he reflected on the information.
((FYI--Jabe's still got 200 years-worth of memories (what he's bothered to remember, at least) but he's in a five year old's body now. Between that & his psychological age, it's extremely questionable whether he qualifies as a 'man'.))

Ialo smiled, and sat next to Luna. She looked beautiful to him, no matter what. he had wrapped an arm around her, and blushed when she called him 'her little heater'. Hell, she could do that all day and he'd have no problem with it. Within moments, snow that had landed on him, was melting into warm puddles of water.
((Really? I'll go fix that.))

Colin's eyes glowed again. "I'll let this go for now, but no. more. temples. or I'll tear them all down. Your little fields might be able to keep me and my trees out--they might not," he added, gesturing at his current surroundings, "but they're all keyed to let in your 'woodland buddies', are they not? And save for your wee kin"--he glared at the python--"I think the animals know which side their meats' bloodied on. Now, please don't burst into tears, but my mind seems in urgent need of an overhaul. Tata," he waved cheeckily, disappearing as roots and vines suddenly leapt from the gound and pulled him back into the earth.
Help! Help! Don't leave me here! Jabezrien bleated mutely. To his complete surprise, he was likewise transported down.

Ophiuchus glared at the retreating forest god, then whirled around to survey his 'woodland buddies' - Kai, Cecilia, and Ella. "Well, what now?" he asked them. "I'll send you to wherever you want to go, but i am NOT going back into that blizzard." He was confident that the snakes would follow him, even if the rainforest rallied against him.

She cuddled with him, one hand laid on his chest while the other was laced with his hand around her. When she was pressed against him comfortably, she sighed. The air from her breath was too warm for the surroundings. A conspicuous mist released from her mouth and hugged around Ialo's neck. She didn't notice, of course. Luna's eyes were closed, breathing in his scent and softly stroking across his chest with an index finger. It took seconds for her to become easeful inside Ialo's aura.
She lifted the hand on his chest and softly touched Ialo's cheek. Her eyes still closed, she slightly pushed his face to look at her. Luna pushed herself up and affectionately kissed the corner of his mouth. Her eyes opened. Not with a snap, but gradually. Her other hand came around to caress the back of his neck, massaging gently. She looked into his eyes with the awe of a child who would be seeing fireworks for the first time. Excitement didn't show on her face, but more of a simple tranquility that had just washed over her. "I completely adore you," she whispered, the mist still visible as it crawled out of her words.
[[It's getting hot in here.. SO HOT.. so take off all your clothes.]]
[[I AM GETTING SO HOT. I WANNA TAKE MY CLOTHES OFF.]]
