Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I didn't do anything...bad did I?" She looked up at him with big, imploring eyes. MUch like te ones he himself had done. Though the lizard had stopped...eventaully, after her command, Bode was afraid that he might take off again.

And he was back to bid bad show. Which was both good and bad in its own way. At least she wasn't as inclined to let him seduce her or vice versa. After all, his ears were covered and she never one without touching those ears. Though she moved her hand to be holding his casually, fingers intertwined. She didn't particularly care what they thought it meant. Could be affection, could be just the way she led him around from time to time when she felt he would wander. Though her mind was also being occupied by that feeling of being watched. Watched by whom was the question thought really. She tried not to think on it, chocking it up to her mind messing with her hopefully. For now she toured the tournament grounds with Malik, checking out everything. Half of her was hoping to find some materials to fletch her own arrows with before her own competition...personally she didn't feel like using the mithril tipped ones she brought.

"I...have that feeling like I'm being watched. Just me, not you and me. It's weird...but it could be just my mind playing tricks with me." Or at least she could fool herself into it. She knew the difference between thinking you were being watched and knowing it. "It's nothing I suppose." Though she did turn her attention to look where he was seeing, Moonstone. "No, you don't need to fetch." For all she knew his father and those back on thier own plane at the manor had told the kits horrible things about Malik. And Moonstone may not take well to it at all. So she went her route. She stuck her fingers in her mouth, making that high pitched whistle she ofen used for Serino though it had a distinctly different octive to it. High pitched enout to alert sensitive ears to want to draw eyes. "Moonstone!" Followed of course by the name that was supposed to be his. Hell, he probably didn't even remember her.

Piper broke out into a smile, and had to resist the urge to throw her arms around the feline and hug him to death. Instead she settled for one of those melodic elvish laughs as her free hand went to take hold of Malik's arm with her other than was already holding his hand. "So it is you Moonstone, I'm surprised you remember me after all this time. You were still a kit when I left the plane." She gave him the once over with an approving nod. "Look how you've grown. Not the little thing that I met at all now are you, taller than even me now."

She looked up as if looking at her own hair with a soft laugh. "Good thing I like the style and haven't changed it then, or else you'd be a lot more confused about right now." Piper was obseving him though, seeing how he was around Malik, if he knew it was Malik that is. If he did, it seemed he hadn't been told some god awful stories about the dark elf. Though she tilted her head at his question, blinking triple colored eyes at him. " Favor sure, but...you don't know?" Malik was right, they planes crossed here, jsut liek they have. "I take it you planes crossed to get here. Well, this is a place called Labyrinth. Apparently it's big on elvish and dwarcen slaves. Me and Malik were forced to planes jump and we ended up here too. Only we had pervious versions of ourselves here and we...stepped into out own shoes so to speak. Here's a better question. Why are you here?" Okay so they were a bit more or less clueless together.

"Stepped into your own shoes? So far as I know...we haven't encountered anything like that."

He heaved a sigh and waved a paw in the air. "My mother has a certain artifact. A piece of herself made into an black onyx carving of a Raven that helps her with some of her powers. My brother got a hold of the thing and somehow discovered how to use it and.....bam. Here we are. I haven't been able to convince him to go back, so here we are."

Another look at Malik. He was being aweful quite. But his mother did not fear him, so Moonstone would not. He decided to hold no grudge for past aggressions, only if something was done to his person. He blieve Malik had already paid the price for his deeds.

Piper shook her head at Malik, but honestly trying to hold back a laugh. She really couldn't help it around him he just made his comments so casually. "Adventure I believe is the word for your situation Moonstone. Though I am surprised to see you in the tournament, not to mention your brother." At least the boys were behaving themselves, Moonstone not going all out hate mode to Malik, and Malik not instantly looking to collar Moonstone...though Piper would never let that happen anyway. "Believe me though, you don't want to step into your own shoes...it's a hard adjustment to make."


Watched? Indeed she was. He couldn't help but being intrigured...after all elves around here were the target of the slave trade and labor forces. He had gone through great lengths to stay out of their leagues since he was thrown into this plane, that was what? A year ago? Yet here was another who was elven, he could easily tell. Eyes with gold in them, silvery hair, slim but sturdy frame...didn't matter that her ears were covered. And she apparently had escaped the binds of slavery as well...intersting. Though he knew his own kind and knew better than to openly watch or hide around corners. Besides...didn't want the big guy that tagged along with her on his case.
