Welcome to Gaia! ::

"You're one of the intercourt children!" I cried. "Oh, damn... what was your name... Goddess, I'm terrible with names. Think, think, think." I hit myself on the forehead repeatedly. "Keary!" I cried. "Yes, yes, Keary... Goddess, I can't remember your last name! It was in the paper... or something... Whenever the intercourt children scandal first surface all those years ago."

"Oh, is that all? Yes. I am Keary." They reply, still giving no surname. Keary preferred not to use one. "You say it with such surprise. It is not really so important. Who are you? You both know my name; I should know yours." He decided not to rush off after all. He kept his bare feet planted on the rock, looking down upon these girls he had encountered. It seemed whenever one of them spoke, he had a new question.

I tried not to laugh. The stance reminded me oddly of Peter Pan.
"Um, I'm... I'm Rebecca Tines." Once again, I was grateful for his non-recognition. "And yeah, it is important," I said. "You know how much of a stir you're causing in the Court?" You're taking the attention off of me, though, I thought.

i grinned and brought the water close enough to spray gently on his bare skin. It grew higher and bigger. More sparatic and intricate, weaving in and out of it's self. "You can do this with fire too, y'know"

Why should the Court be important to him? This girl did not seem to be very fun like the other. With a stamp of his foot, earth Keary sent his rock into the ground. "Of course I know what I can do." Keary replies to Darcy. "But I can not move water. It was a compliment; you should be pleased. I do not give them often.

Fire Keary took in a deep breath and dropped into a crouch, his stance spread wide. Earth took a few steps back and dropped into a similar stance. And without another word, fire began to dance. Fire sparked from his fingers, he kicked jets of flame into the air. As his body moved, each flame circled and danced with him, forming sinuous shapes just within where the water circled. He made a dragon, a school of fish, a flock of birds, anything he could think of.

Meanwhile, earth shifted very slightly and shot out an arm. Rings of earth formed just above the ground. Earth raised his arms, bringing the rings higher to form a little obstacle course for the flitting flame creatures he'd created. He shifted his stance again, making much slower, more steady movements than his dancing fire counterpart. He made targets to destroy, obstacles to dodge.

"He's just a boy, he doesn't know yet." The warmth from the fire was soothing and relaxing, but too much heat would nock me flat on my a**. I was getting extremely sleepy, The water stopped moving and hung in the air, waiting to fall or be put back. I watched the dancing flames and collapsed. The water hung in the air for a split second, but fell just as I hit the rock.

I opened my eyes and realized i was rather wet. I closed my eyes again. "Thanks kid!" I get up and look at Fire Keary, "Think you could dry me off without puting me back to sleep?"
