Fractured Moonlight Captain

Piper laughed lightly, continuing her petting with her clean hand. "You're just as easy going as ever aren't you? Sometimes I wonder where you go of to anyway." Then it wasn't so quiet as she was lovingly attacked by imps, going knees first into flowers to keep from toppling over. "Well hello you two...where have you been causing mischief?" Reaching back she plucked them off of her, settling them in said flowers. Sitting down in the flowers cross legged and leaning back against Ashlyn she eyed the two imps and nodded. "As I see, they are out. I haven't seen flowers in years. They're very pretty" No really...how long had it been now? Though a smile at them as they babbled about their precious Star Flower. "Any girl likes getting flowers, I assume she would." Piper was getting that slightly drunk off of nature feeling again as she plucked one of those flowers, running fingertips over soft petals. Of course with bloody fingers that wasn't too nice to watch. So she'd wipe her hands on her pants every now and then. Oh yeah, getting drunk off of old familiarity.

I had no power before your mother. I simply responded to her call. He hoped up on Onyx's shoulder, trotting back and forth a bit. Maybe you should go to her for support? This wind woman, she does not know much about you? If she was so quickly taken away?
Perhaps, perhaps not. If I knew the girl, I would offer more. But I cannot. Perhaps the Oracle abnd the Captain do not wish to see any of their comrades in distess. Shoulr you or this minotaur fall, then there will be soemone left with one less freind.

"I can't go to her for support. she's afriad of me. afraid of my..intentions. not that she can be blamed after what she's gone through, but still..I can't go to her. she'll have a panic attack. and then I'll really have to deal with that pirates entire crew."
a raking of claws on the stonework.
"and besides I can't go alone. if they percieve a threat in me I'll need help. strong as I may physically be..I can't match five to one when at least two of them are spell casters."

Roarke rubbed at his chin. "We don't currently have any standard education classes here. Most students come here already in matureity. Hmm, perhaps it is time to expand our horizons yes? that would mean some additions to the school, some new wings for classes, i'd need to hire some trusted teachers. It's a very pelasing possibility."
She did indeed breath deeply. My goodness, everything here was just so gorgious! "I tihnk that would be a good idea. Why don't we pick enough to put one vase full in all the rooms? Might as well take advantage of what we have."
Moonstone rung both hands around his tail, and is wing twitched when she touched it. He didn't want to get angry though, even thoughb his blood was starting to biol a bit, and didn't want to run for fear of hurting her feelings. Perhaps he was becomeing his own vah slef now, Onyx's emotions evolving on their own...
"Afraid? Ah, nooo, I'm not a fraid. No, I don't know what your talking about."
She grunted a bit when Piper elaned against her, but her eyes got heavey again and it was pretty enjoyable having everone around her so...let it be. Not even begging for pets. Aren't I a good griffin?
"Oh, we've been around Deep Water and Lostagrrace, doing...you know...fun stuf. But then it starte raining and we saw all this flowers comming out."
"So we came back home!" Whoa, it was classififed as home now, eh? Watch out Malik.
"We're glad she'll like them. Ooo, they are so pretty!" the sqeualed in delight, clapping there hands. They sat in the flowers next to Piper, looking all around them. "Of course you haven;t seen flowers in years."
"They hardly ever come here."
"It's really rare. Most people don't get to see themthree, four times in their lives."

Morelle purred, trying to find a solution, offer suggestions, generally just trying to be helpful. After all, this was his mistress's son! He had to. Looking out the window at the flowers. What if you go under false pretenses? Go see this Oracle, and merely ask here how the wind fairs. Perhaps she is doing..better after this thing she's gone through?
Morelle chattered, looking happy as always. I can go with you. It's so peaceful out. If it is a true Oracle, then won't she know you are comming to simply speak?

"Getting into trouble no doubt. But...I can't condemn fun now can I?" A small shake of her head as she examined the cute on her fingers a moment. Oh good, that pesky bleeding was stopping. Then her attention went back to the imps, one hand going back to idly petting at Ashlyn. "I'm from the surface remember? I'm used to seeing flowers everyday. It's just a little shocking to convince myself I was never seeing them again, only to indeed see them, in the Underdark no less. Well, I'm elven, maybe I'll get to see them again down here even if they are rare." A thoughtful look for a moment though. "You might want to explain to her they're a gift though. You know how drow are..."

"Oh you're an elf..that's right..." the looked around, their eyes going form side to side like they knew what was going on.
"Okay, we give in."
"What's an elf?"
"We just thought you had ppinty ears, is all...."
"We didn't know that classified you as an 'elf.'"
"Zahara won't know what they are foor?"
"Isn't flowering giving a timless, universal gesture?"

She blinked at them. "Ah no...humans usually don't have pointy ears. If they do it's usually not natural or thier half elves. In plain terms...and elf is a biped being often tall of stature and slim of frame, with elongated pointed ears and often have innate magical abilities and the like. We're not derived from humans and we differ a lot. For instance...we're more frail than humans, but when we heal we do it fast and often better than humans, no scars and such. By elvish gods...I sound like my father." A little giggle from that as she was playing with flowers. She found herself fashioning them into a crown as she often did when she was a child. "Zahara is a drow...the drow are often...mean and untrusting elves. They may thing a present is to trick and harm them. And drow usually aren't affectionate. Get what I mean?"

"She'll know of course. but the rest of them won't. and thier first reaction will be to assault me. and as much as you might want to help, you won't be able to do a whole lot. speaking of which, what are you doing back? I thought you were staying with mom and dad for awhile yet."
"Once again, you imps show absolutely no brain is present in either of your heads."
Malik came over by Piper, walking Nightmare with foals in tow.
"Drow society has virtually no romantic, or kind, or loving interaction within it. everyone is a potential enemy, everything is a potential trap. As for elves. we are a superior race to humans. given near immortal life, we are stronger, faster, more graceful and beautiful than a human. our eyesight is better, and we are generally better in any skill, as we have centuries rather than decades to master it."

"The nodded their heads, going "oooh," in a quiet manner. Loooking her over as she described elvish traits. "So...." but they weren't really getting it "your like, a type of human? Kind of like how a ptbull is a kind of dog?"
"Awe, but our gift isn't from one drwo to another!"
"We're imps! She trusts us, right?"
"She kissed us!" They weren't going to mention the circumstances as to why that happened.
Then malik's description, and the kind of looked down. "Oh..."

Why woul she not tell the others, if you wanted to see her and not be harmed or harming? Or perhaps they are not there at the moment.
He spun in a little circle. You know how your mother worries. She likes to have an eye on you. She sent me back.

Piper shook her head as she looked up to Malik. "You just have to trump my own sayings don't you A'mael?" Then a look back to the imps sitting near her as her hands unconciously played with flowers in that nature deprivation high on it now state. "No, we're not a kind of human. Elves and humans are completely different." Though she did give them a smile as they looked down trodden from Malik's take on drow. "Want to know a secret? Not all drow are like that. Some are very romantic, kind, and loving...they're just hard to find really. I think your Star Flower with understand your gift, after all, she's one of those rare drow." A knowing look up to Malik with a little smile. "Been spending your time with Nightmare have you?"
Oh look it! Look it these! What are these? Snuffle. I don't know but they smell good. Oh hey...my fire is making them turn colors. Bad colors. Forget these things what are those? Snuffle at the imps. They look funny. Do they taste funny? Why don't you find out. Why don't you? You. No you. You're the brave one. You're the first born. Head bonk.

"Well if your not afaid there should be no reason to lie to me." She could tell he was tsrating to get a bit edgy. Whould he blow up at her this time she wondered?

They giggled. "She'll definatly like it then! We'll pick hjer lots of flowers!" They began to pick, when the Zephmares came out, and as they snuffled around the imps got very curious, letting the horses sniff them, "awe, they're so cute!" Beware.....
"No personal gain? Are you kidding? it makes me happy. I'm probably the most selfish person in the wolrd." His smile was full of genuin humour.
"Not too many, we don't want to take them all, or else they might not grow here next time." She had picked a few as well, holding them gently in one hand.
Moonstone cleared his throat behind a fist, ""Yeah...I um...hu...Nyaaa!" Moon pushed past kat and started running off down the hall.

Daz smiled. "Well, thats not quite what i meant but..." He shrugged his shoulders, it didn't really matter. "And what do these students learn?"
"Okay then, shall we go put these in some water? I want to bring some up to Warren as well."
Kat laughed out loud. This was so much fun, "You're no getting away!" She yelled and she tore after him. She laughed though because even though he was running it looked as if his tail wanted to go right back to her. All she really had to do was reach out and grab it...
