 Shun stretched lazilly out on the grass, he was bored, really really bored, and had once again wandered away from the confines of the Pixie lands, they really weren't very interesting after all. Especially now that Mika had gone to visit that Unseelie he'd been writing to in the goblin kingdom..
He'd gone quite a way from home now, an unusal thing for the pixie folk, but then again Shun wasnt really like the others, he wasnt frail, he didnt like dancing around flowers and no.. jokes were not his idea of fun.
He was far more seroius than most of the other pixies, at least most of the time.. He had looked after his brother, Mika since they were both rather young, their lives had been fairly un-eventful for the most part, and frankly Shun was bored of it.. really really bored of it.
Sometimes he just wished that somthing interesting would happen, but it never did.
The ball's had been fun! A good chance to meet new people.. but no one ever really grabbed his attetion, except the Drow, but they usually wanted nothing to do with his 'light' kind...
Why did all the interesting people have to be so hard to talk to..? Why couldnt somthing interesting just fall out of the sky..?
The clear blue day didnt look promising...

 Before he had even opened his eyes, the phoenix had know that today was a perfect day to be on the wing! It was that strange tingling sensation, how clean and still the air smelt.. Perfect!
He hadn't wasted a moment in throwing the covers off himself to start his vigorous morning rituals of stretching and preening his wings meticulously. The last thing one wanted was to present himself to the world looking unkempt.. And even worse if he cramped up while flying. If he survived the fall at all he'd have died of embarrassment. It was a lot to live up to being a phoenix, one of the rarer creatures to take to the sky.. He was unusual anyway with his tendencies to hoard the feathers of other birds.
But all in all, he was a bit of a drifter, never having had a place to call his own and raised by quite the nice pair of tawny and golden griffins. They had had some noble standing, at least about the practically unheard of griffin numbers.
Like himself, they were considered quite an oddity.
But less of that, more of now. The sky! Perfect! And it was with that that he had left his current lodgings, spreading his wings to leave the outskirts of the Northern Forests to see exactly where his wings would carry him today.
It hadn't been too long until he had jut clipped over the tips of the dragon kingdoms before falling upon far lusher pastures and rich forests.. The work of some of the faeries, or so he thought. It really was quite lovely though.. As much as he wanted to continue in the air today, the temptation to land and roll around on the soft grass or hop around the trees (his 'mother' had always made quite the habit of that) was becoming far too great, and so, somewhat grudgingly he tilted his wings, banking on the updrafts and tucking his wings in a little to start his descent.

A shadow rushing across the grass over him made the Pixie blink slightly, the sky had been empty until a few moments ago, and he usually heared birdsong before any took flight, he looked up, tilting his head back to see what the large shadow was and found himself quirking an eyebrow.. a flying.. person..?
It wasnt a pixie or fairy though, who on earth was this intruder in the pixie lands...? He had half a thought to head home quietly, he woulndt have been noticed yet, and allert the city... but.. at the same time, that would help the buggers, and they were irritating in Shun's oppinion, if this creature was here to cause them trouble, then so much the better. Idally Shun watched the other creature, still unable to tell what it was, a dark lue blower caught between his fingers, thoughtlessly being twilred as he watched, his eyes fixed on the sky...
"What on earth are you then..." he mused quietly, growing more curious by the minute.

The phoenix beamed, circling a little faster, loving the feeling of the air rushing up through his hair as he made his way down to the lush grass below him. It looked so soft!
The feathers in his hair tugged against him as he made his way down, resisting the flow of the air, like they had been designed to.. Some of his feathery necklaces smacked him right on the cheek and chin, startling him into tucking his wings in a little more with a squeak, then a louder squeak as his tucked wings initiated a bit of a free-fall until he thought enough about it to extend them again. He gasped a little when he touched down, looking up, he hadn't realized how far he'd really fallen.. That was worrying really..
But then he noticed he grass once again.. He felt watched.. But then he didn;t feel like he was in danger really.. He had a quick look about the surrounding area. There it was! He squinted a little at the figure, not in the distance but too far away to see clearly, standing up on tip-toes so he could try and get a better look,
"Hello?"

Shun saw the other creature land, he was curious, of course he was, but it wasnt in his nature to just go bounding up to somone he didnt know, at least not once he was sure they had seen him, it was more entertaining dragging things out a little...
For a moment, even after the hello had been called he stayed where he was, reclined comfortably in the grass, his eyes fixed, in-obviously on the other person, before finally getting to his feet, as slowly as he could, he wasnt in a hurry of course.. though by this point his curiosity was actually gnawing at him. Carelessly brushing himself down he looked over at the other figure, he had a better view now that he was on his feet, it was.. some kind of bird maybe..? He couldnt really tell still, but there was a lot of dark.. and then a lot of colour.. then more dark...
Finally he lifted a hand, wiggling his fingers once in some kind of wave, before slowly, carelessly perhapse, walking towards the figure, he wanted to know who it was that had invited themselves into the pixie lands this time...

Drack grinned, craning his head to the side a little squinting as he saw the figure at least partially acknowledge him, so with a delighted little squeal he sort of well, bounded towards the darker figure in the distance, his wings flicked out a little to the sides.
"Heeee~ Hello there! Hi!" He laughed happily, not a care in the world, this one.

That right there made Shun blink, and blink a hell of a lot at that, the other seemed to be, well, positively hyperactive, that wasn't at all what he'd been expecting.
"Uuh.. hi...?" he stated somewhat more sedately in responce, one eyebrow quirked slightly as he looked the other over, his first impression... feathers. Lots and Lots of feathers. His eyes lingered for a moment on the largest of them, they looked quite good, he concluded after a moment and shaking his head slightly a smile on his lips he stated,
"You certainly seem to be in high spirits today, huh?" he asked, not really sure of how else to start a conversation with somone he really didn't know at all, but well, as far as it went this one seemed friendly enough.

The phoenix beamed happily, pulling up just shy of the pixie's personal space, teetering just on the edge of it, "Well, you can't not be in high spirits when the wind is juuuust right, like today!" He beamed, flourishing a hand at the sky, the bracelet around his wrist jingling ever so slightly as he did so, the feathers wafting gently in the warm breeze.
"Oh, but uh.." He began again, the hand dropping from mid-air down to a hip that he stuck out purely for it to be rested on, "I'm getting a bit carried away with myself again.. I'm Drack.. And you.. Are evidently a pixie!" He started with a slight questioning tone to his voice, "But I don't think that even I could guess your name.."

Shun quirked his eyebrow again, it had to be wondered just what this rather clourful individual was on..? He was definately high on somthing however, Shun was used to people talking quite quickly but he was actually having to pay attention now, and that wasn't really what he'd been planning for..
"Uh.. yeah, a Pixie.." he stated at least with a nod of his head having stared at this Drack character slightly blankly for a couple of seconds,
"I'm Shun.." he added,
"And I don't think I'll hold it against you for not knowing my name.." he shook his head,
"My my waht a weird day already.." that comment was mostly for himself,
"You were enjoying the air huh..?" he asked, flicking his eyes out over the wings of the other,
"Seem's like it is a rather nice day, thoug hI can't say I take to the air very much myself.. Pixie's, though we can fly, were definately not build for distance.." He shook his head,
"What are you anyway...? I can't even begin to guess..."
