Fae smiled admiringly at Lucius. She stretched a hand out in front of him to see what he did, if he would allow her to stroke his smooth soft feathers and fur.
"Welll...I don't know if anyone is around yet," she frowned a little. This was quite a discovery! "Maybe you should show Lucius around so he can get used to his surroundings." She couldn't think of anything else. Quite honestly, she rather sit here and interact with the new Aerandir.

Late riser as always, Dragonfly had only pulled herself out of bed. She decided to head into Cetalu, to see if there was anyone up and about. She noted that it was still fairly early as she pulled herself togethor, grabbing Iniko's jar, and stepping outside.
She glanced around, and yawned slightly, before stopping dead, eyes half opened as she stared into the center of Cetalu, near the community center. She could see two figures there, one she guessed, was Nyxa, the other she didn't recognize. They both looked extremely excited about something, and, curiousity peaked, Dragonfly ran over to inspect.
Her eyes widened as she neared, staring at the small gryphon in Nyxa's hands. Her luminous yellow eyes were plate-like in size as she stared at the beautiful newly formed gryphon.
"Lu-... Nyxa, is that Lucius?" she gasped, mouth agape.
She looked down at the jar in her own arms, excitement welling up in her chest.
"Wow Nyxa! He's absolutely-" she cut off, not finding the words to describe her surprise, "Wow! He's beautiful!"
She then realized, that she had hardly noticed the other Aerandir guardian, to entranced by Lucius's new form. She grinned to Fae, not sure how to introduce herself, as Lucius was obviously the center of attention now.
"Erm, I'm Dragonfly," she said, holding out a hand for Fae to shake, and shifting her jar so that she had a more secure hold on it.

Nyxa waved at Dragonfly, "Oh, hey! Yeah, this is Lucius." At the mention of his name, the gryphon fluffed up his neck feathers and let out a loud chirp. Nyxa chuckled and began the introductions, "Dragonfly, this is Fae, Fae, this is Dragonfly." Nyxa giggled and buried her face against Lucius' neck. "Ooohmygosh, this is so exciting."

Fae giggled from such excitment. She poked at Lucius and held up one her jars to him, showing him what he once was before. Then, she heard someone running up from behind them and turned sideways. She blinked as the new girl ran past her and straight up to Nyxa. Blink blink, sweat.
She smiled and stood up when the girl finally introduced herself. It didn't matter to Fae, really, because Lucius was quite exciting. "My name is Fae, it's nice to meet you, Dragonfly," shaking her hand. She nodded to Lucius and picked up her sketch book of Lucius's transformation. She also notice in between her arms a glowing jar. Fae felt a bit embaressed for not even near the transformation. Maybe she should get back to her house soon..

Alyosha In DFly's hands the jar began to buldge and crack, vibrations crackled against her fingers as the blue orb swelled to fit the jar. In her hands the glass split, each half falling apart into either palm, the small blue orb glowing and hovering above them.
Dragonfly yelped as the jar in her hand cracked, and instinctivley she pulled her hand back from Fae, grasping the jar tighter so as not to drop it. This only sent some of the pieces of glass stinging into her hands, and she yelped as she dropped the pieces to the ground, hands now bleeding slightly.
She quickly forgot about the shards in her hands though, as she stared in awe at the orb hovering before her.
"Wholly crap," was all she could manage, eyes now twice the size as they were before.

Nyxa's eyes bugged out as she watched Dragonfly's jar crack open. She excitedly wrapped an arm around Fae as she watched, "Ooooooooohmygolly!! It's going to change, too!" Lucius' head tilted at the sight of the transforming orb, a low rumble rising from his chest as he watched with unfathomable dark eyes. "This is so exciting." Nyxa tapped Lucius' small beak gently, "You're going to have a friend soon!"

Fae too pulled her hand away quickly as she saw Dragonfly's jar brake open. "Oh my! Are you okay?" She asked as Dfly's hand bled a little. Fea stared at the orb in Dragonfly's hands and nodded to Nyxa. "She's right! It's going to change very soon!" She watched intently. Her notes were proving correct, but moreso if Dfly's orb changed into a gryphonic. She couldnt miss this!

Dragonfly was extremely unconcerned with the state of her hands at the moment. They weren't bleeding much, and as far as she was concerned, salt water was enough of a disinfectant for her.
She stared at the orb, shock written across her features as she lifted a hand to touch the shining, swirling mass. It made her fingers tingle, a tingle that spread up her arm, and made her grin with excitment.
"Wholly wow," she breathed again, looking from Nyxa to Fae, hopping from one foot to the other with excitment, "This is fricking amazing!"

Over the last few days, Rahujo had spent most of her time on the other islands around Cetalu, taking the sun and looking for interesting bits and pieces that might come in useful in the workshop one day. Not overly fond of commotion, she'd been unconsciously avoiding the community centre until the new arrivals had gotten settled in.
"I don't think I've seen anyone but you for the last few days, come to think of it," she said. "Anything interesting going on?"
She followed Osero's gaze, shading her eyes to better view the small cluster of people.

Nyxa burbled softly, "We can cleanse your hands after this is over. I'll help. And yes, it is an amazing experience, I can't wait to see what Iniko looks like."
Lucius began kneading his front paws against the pads of Nyxa's hands, also growing very excited. He chirped softly, tail thrashing around.

 "It would seem that way, judging from the noise over there."
His curiousity had gotten the better of him. Quietly, he moved a little closer to the trio, his expression quizzical. As he approached, he could catch a glimpse of multicoloured feathers among the human. Turning to Rahujo, he grinned suddenly, beckoning to the bison Aerandir.

Fea smiled at Dragonfly. Too much excitment for her, she stayed calm and took a seat back down near Nyxa and Lucius to watch Dragonfly's orb. "Wanna come sit down with us?" She offered so Dfly wouldn't be left out.
Fae looked around the town to see if anyone else was around, the fog clearing and sun rosen. She blinked at faint figures in the distance. Squinting her eyes, she cocked her head to the side then waved in their direction. Maybe they had jars too that were already new Areandir! How small she started feeling.

Rahujo followed Osero, padding along behind him curiously. This far out, she couldn't hear anything in particular, just the noise of voices carried on the wind. She strained to see what was going on, but her vision was much less acute than Osero's hunter eyes. One of the figures appeared to be waving, however...

Alyosha The ball zips up and down at speed, much more furiously than Lucuis' did. It seems to almost leap with joy in the air until it begins to shudder. Slowly the shuddering spreads though the ball, until it stops dead, suddenly spreading out to form another new little Aerandir. The little heron raccoon looks about confused for a moment, falling through Chibi's hands onto the ground with a light thud. She looks up, honking lightlly. 
Dragonfly kneeled down, picking the newly formed Aerandir up from the ground, staring with still wide eyes. She scooched herself closer to Nyxa and Fae, folding her legs beneath her to sit.
Iniko let out a soft honk, and Dragonfly couldn't help but giggle at the small creature.
"Precious..." she cooed, grinning widly to Fae and Nyxa.

Osero spoke quietly. "If I just saw what I think I saw..."
Trailing off, the dark Aerandir padded forward again, approaching the humans. He stopped a short distance away, not wishing to intrude upon the trio of women.
He could see the brightly coloured gryphon clearly now. Another of their kind had been formed and brought into the world. He smiled warmly, merely watching the newborn for now.
