Welcome to Gaia! ::

Donovan raised a brow as he stepped backwards a bit to keep himself from falling over. Instinctively he reached out to grab Kara by the waist before she could fall over, since she was still a tad unsteady with wings. Curious as to what made her back up he looked and swore his eyebrows would go into his hair.

That was unexpected, well not completely unexpected, he knew they were married, it was just that he had never seen them that close. Granted there was company, and Donovan himself was a private person. Still he pulled her close whispering to her.

"Would you rather wait... or do you want me to speak up, because if you become any redder it might stay that way..." he murmured close to her, preparing to be whacked in the arm.

Donovan had not expected the back of his leg, and he glared at what he assumed to be the figure to have done it, because it was a hell lot stronger than what Kara would have done. In fact he bent back a bit, and hoped he wouldn't cause Kara to fall.

He really really hoped that wasn't Serenity, because that just annoyed him. Glaring at air for a moment he muttered to Kara.

"Well... looks like it.. followed us."

The moor cat wasn't impressed that it was being followed, and it growled deep in its throat - just a warning growl - and turned around and left the bushes, where its trail became once more as invisible as the creature itself. Irritated, it headed towards the docks, slowly becoming visible once more until it was solid again.

The noises caught the attention of the elves, and Ulani sat up to look and see what was going on, while Ulrich turned his head, keeping one hand on Ulani's shoulder. They blinked when the saw Donovan, almost unable to believe their eyes - they couldn't see Kara, over on the other side of the bushes.

Donovan shrugged at the two elves when he saw them turn to look at him. Well, it looked like they interrupted anyways, pity Kara couldn't keep a good hold of her curiousity.

"Come someone make sure that bush Kara went through hasn't eaten her yet?" Donovan called out as he made his way over.

He could hear a lot of rustling and betted with himself that Kara had gotten her wing stuck... again.

Donovan was a bit amused, he smirked a bit as he nodded and pointed to the bushes he knew she went through, "She followed something that whamped me in the leg and knowing her... one of her wings is probably caught up in the branches," he snickered a bit.

He couldn't help it, Kara was almost like a child sometimes, far too curious for her own good he thought to himself.

"She goes off often, especially without warning."

Ulrich chuckled with amusement. "Forgive me for laughing," he apologized, still chuckling, "I do hope you're all right ... but if as you say it always happens, perhaps it would be better to avoid bushes altogether?" he suggested.

Ulani reached up and flicked his ear. "Ulrich Aldrich," she told him in a warning tone (though she was smiling like a schoolgirl), "I suggest you be more kind to our guests." She looked back at Kara. "Are you al right?" she asked anxiously, moving to help her.

Ulrich raised one eyebrow and glanced over his shoulder at the moor cat who had now stretched itself out and was basking in the sunlight, then looked back at Donovan. "So you've met Leif, then," he nodded. "Good thing he likes you. He rarely likes anyone he hasn't met before ... and he's rather ferocious most of the time."

"I'm fine," Kara replied with a bit of a sigh as she stood to brush herself off from the real dust now, "Just lost a few feathers, they were probably loose anyways, maybe now I won't have to find them myself. I don't know how my children do it, trying to find their loose feathers all the time."

She resisted the urge to stick her tongue out at Ulrich, it wasn't her fault she was so curious. Well... maybe it was.. slightly.
