(*just realized she typed 'Astraea' earlier* Gah, sorry Mel.)

"Your Mom's not home?" Rune frowned slightly, worry darkening her eyes. She liked Mel just as much as Alora, and finding out something might be wrong with her friend wasn't a great moment. Her gaze flicked to Yourie, questioning.

Jewel, on the other hand, was focusing on Yourie's "help" with choosing clothes. Green eyes analyzed the teenager's outfit intently. "Really? I bet we'll look good, then." She beamed.

(Tis okay, Rune luff. *fluffs* Didja get my SS?)
The dove looked nervous and upset for a moment, realizing that impact of what she had just said. She shot a glance at the teenager, imploring her to tell the truth, and Yourie conceded. "Well, see, something...wrong is going on at home, as in another world, and Mel had to go back to help. And she sent me here to take care of the kids. I'm her cousin, y'see." Though there weren't much visible similarities between the two; Yourie's dark braid almost brushed her waist, while the fire mage preferred to let her flaming red hair cascade down. And the eighteen year old's brown eyes were in a stark contrast to Melody's blue ones.

"Mmhmm." The telekinetic placed her hands on her bare waist, grinning. She wore a sleeveless collared purple blouse which was tied over a black tube top and khaki shorts, completed with a simple scarf tied around her waist.

"Oh, and Rune would know ALL about that." Zhann - returning with several different dresses draped over one arm - grinned teasingly at the blue-maned Water Slider, nudging her. Rune flushed a bit, pushing her friend away. "Shut up, Zhann. Mel doesn't have half the psychotic relatives I do." Then the young woman paused, head tilted to one side with a wince. "At least, I hope not."

On the other hand, the fact that Yourie didn't look much like Mel wasn't particularly troublesome. Rune and HER cousin Ri may have looked nearly identical - a fact that most of their friends found both odd and amusing - but she had more than her share of relations on the other end of the spectrum, too. And that didn't even take into account the whole "blood-friends-who-aren't-genetically-related-but-might-as-well-be-related" thing. Heck, by that count, her kids had more aunts and uncles than anybody could ever want or need.

Jewel seemed rather content to keep her hold on Alora, and the happy smile stretched across her small face only widened at the sight of the dresses. "Oooooo, Lora, look! She found one in blue, with silver pieces!"

(I dunno - I got one without a sender attached. Twilight something, jewelry-related and made me glee. xD

I'm SO sorry for not posting earlier, hon. My mouse has gone utterly nuts, and kept clicking "submit" twice every time I clicked, so it kept telling me I couldn't post twice. *boots it* Fixed now, I hope, but I had to rewrite the post and got frustrated. ^^')

"Well, I'm not psychotic. Last time I checked, that is." Yourie grinned back, patting Alora's blond head absent-mindedly. "Her twin brother is kinda, though. He's the one wrecking trouble back home."

The dove girl however, put her mind off her mother for a moment, distracting herself by staring at the dresses Zhann held. "Wow." She whispered, a small smile lighting up her face. "That's nice." She turned the smile down at Jewel. "Nice find, Jewel!"

Rune laughed at Yourie's comment, then winced sympathetically. "Sounds like a real prize." She shook her head. "Poor Mel. At least most of our enemies aren't related."

"Like that makes a difference." Zhann interjected, flashing a quick grin at the two older girls before turning back to the D-corp pair.

Jewel giggled. "Zhann is Mama's friend, she's gonna teach at the school maybe - Mama's school, not ours." The small fish child looked disappointed. "Mama says I can't go to the A-cad-em-y, 'cause there's a school for D-Corp already. Is it nice, Lora?"

(Oh. My. Gawd. IT'S A BUNNY!!!!! *glee* Jewel gets a pet for the hols, oh yes she does. And it's the same shade as her blue streaks. *glomps* Mel, thank you so much! heart heart )

The brunette laughed at the two's comments and let her brown eyes run appraisingly over the dress.

"I...well, I haven't been there yet." Alora shifted rather uncomfortably. Part of her was scared of going back to the place where those nasty techs resided, part of her excited at the thought of learning. "Yourie says I'm gonna go after Christmas. I have to learn flying and..." Her voice dropped to a low whisper. "I'm thinking of taking up ballet. Emi says it's nice. And oh, she's a lot like me!" The dove grinned, wings fluttering. "She's a swan D-Corp I met at the library."



(No prob. *grins* And thank you for the OMG box! I got exactly what I wanted from it, for some reason. xD *glees over the narwhal plush*)

Jewel's eyes went wide as saucers, and she clapped her multi-colored hands gleefully. "Really?!? Can I meet her?" The little girl fairly danced in place. "Is she like a water-swan, or a normal swan?"

"Water swans don't live in Gaia, sweetie." Rune explained calmly. The Water Slider looked through the other dresses Zhann had brought up, alternately shaking and nodding her head. "Oh, this one's nice - no, the cut's not right for her wings, she'd need one with a lower waistline."

"Oh." For a moment, Jewel seemed disappointed - then her grin widened once more. "That's still cool. Does she have pretty feathers like you, Lora?"
PostPosted: Mon Jan 14, 2008 2:52 am


"Maybe." The dove girl agreed, bobbing her blonde head. Yourie then voiced the question they both wanted to ask, "What's a water swan?" It was really for the sake of Alora, since the telepathic could see inside Rune and Jewel's mind.

"Yup." Alora smiled dreamily. "She looks a lot like me, cept her hair's a lighter blond and wavy, and she has black markings across her nose and she doesn't have tail feathers or these." She tugged lightly on one of the feathers that grew behind her ears.

"They're a cross 'tween mermaids and swans." Jewel replied promptly, eyes sparkling. It was clear she very much liked the race in question. "They have special feathers that don't absorb water, and they swim AND fly! They have markings like your friend, and they eat algae."

Rune grinned. "This one," she set an affectionate hand on Jewel's head, "spent a lot of time with the mermaid colony off of Morroc City while we were there. Made quite a few friends with them."

Jewel giggled, almost shyly. She reached up to touch Alora's ear feathers. "Yours are softer, though. I like 'em."
PostPosted: Tue Jan 15, 2008 2:22 am


"They sound beautiful." Alora said simply, her blue eyes shining as she pictured the water swans in her mind, her imagination forming different possibilities. "Morroc City?" She echoed, tilting her head to a side in slight confusion. "You mean like another realm, world, like Taika, where mom and Yourie's from?"

"Me too." The dove smiled shyly. "Mom always said they're like my special earrings."

"Mama won't let me get my ears pierced yet." Jewel grumped, shooting an evil look at Rune - who, in turn, just laughed and ruffled her daughter's bangs. "Not until you're a little older, sweetie." She reminded the little girl. "Same rule the rest of your sisters."

"And brothers." Zhann piped up. She smirked as Rune rolled her eyes. "Oh, come on, Ash does have his ear pierced. Twice!"

Jewel nodded, explaining before her friend could ask. "He's my biggest brother. He's a Fae - they've got pointed ears, it's really cool." Then she tilted her head, thinking back to Alora's first question. "Oh, yup. It's like Mama's Earth, or Illuzen where my uncles and aunts are from, or Alterealm or Corista or Legandia." The small fish-child pointed proudly to her mother. "Mama's a Slider, so she can go to all kinds'a different worlds. Some of my aunts and uncles can do it too."

"I don't even know if I could pierce these." Alora grinned rather nervously and tugged on one of her ear-fluffs. Honestly, she found piercing a little frightening. A needle going through her skin? Eew.

"Interesting." Yourie murmured, leaning on a nearby clothes rack slightly.

Rune grinned a touch sheepishly, cheeks tinged faintly pink. "It's kind of a family trait." She admitted to Yourie. "Magical powers, world hopping - "

" - kid collecting, major heroic-save-the-world attitudes, insanely complicated lives and a stubborn streak a mile wide." Zhann finished. The "clerk" smirked and ducked as Rune aimed a cuff at her shoulder. "What? Come on - I've met your cousins, AND most of their friends. It's all true. Jeez, just Ri's normal day would blow my mind. How anybody puts up with those stuck-up, pompous jack - "

"Children!" Rune's eyes sharpened, and she motioned toward Jewel and Alora, the former watching it all with a rapt expression. Well, technically, Alora was probably grown-up enough to hear the words, but still.

"- arses." Zhann gamely left off the rest of her choice adjectives for the nobles and other authority figures of Illuzen, shifting her armload of dresses to touch Alora's ear-fluff lightly. "I dunno - I think if you pierced the shaft of the feather, it wouldn't hurt at all. Kinda like piercing your fingernails."
PostPosted: Fri Jan 18, 2008 11:35 pm


"Wowww." Yourie said with a grin. "Agreed. I'm glad I don't have such a hectic life, even though I'm telekinetic, and telepathic." She was more of the slacker type, really.

Alora fidgeted, looking slightly uncomfortable. "It's...okay." She told Rune hesitantly. "I mean...sometimes I hear these things when Yourie and brother squabble. I just...pretend not to hear it." She shrugged, a small blush spreading over her cheeks even as Yourie winced.

"I...guess." She stammered softly. Feathers were different from skin though. "Maybe when I'm older."

Jewel nodded sympathetically, leaning against her friend. "I hear 'em too." She confided, not noticing as Rune's wince matched Yourie's. "Mama and my bigger brothers an' sisters an' my aunts an' uncles use all kindsa bad words we're not s'posed to say. And I still get in trouble for calling a bully a dummy-butthead."

Zhann snickered. "I told you using different languages doesn't make a bit of difference." She chortled at the Water Slider. "Kids are damned smart, they'll figure it out as soon as they want to."

Rune sighed and rolled her eyes.
