Welcome to Gaia! ::

Its a Christmas Party~ The time to be cheery, buy expensive things, get drunk on cider and egg nog, and...sacrifice a tree and decorate its corpse with sparkly things!

So, this is our little Christmas Event, its simply an ORP (Open RolePlay) for those of you interested. You do not need to own a pet to roleplay, but you do need a char. <3

The setting: Hyrule Castle Town Square, Broken Blade Tavern & Inn.

There is light, powdery snow upon the ground outside, sparkling lights gifted by the fairies strung about the fountain and buildings. Inside the Inn, there is a roaring fire in the fireplace, and people are doing their Joy. It is the month of the winter lights, when the holiday of warmth and giving takes place. Come take part!

Luna and Wolfie Bones had been in Hyrule to do their shopping. It was still a bit rare for her to make the journey but it was a time to splurge. She had only visited the Tavern and Inn a few times over the years, but she would have no issue finding it again. Luna really loved the winter, mostly for the snow that had made a gentle blanket for the evening. She had of course switched into her winter clothing and it kept her warm... One could see it was cold for when she breathed, her soft breath could be seen slipping off her lips. But it wasn't herself that she was worried about...

Slipping her crystal blue eyes down to her companion she smiled at the canine. She felt bad when it snowed or rained because Wolfie's wrappings would trail and get dirty and wet. His red eyes would look up to meet hers and he give a soft bark that emitted a happy air to it. He padded happily along Luna's side, his ears twitching when he saw the felines that were lurking about. But he too recognized the area.

As they descended the stars into the back alley Tavern and Inn; the warm and inviting light from the inside was soon joined by the noise. She hadn't been to another holiday party aside from in her village. It was nice to socialize. Reaching the door, Luna's hand took hold, and pulled it open. Wolfie was wiggled his way in before her and looked around.

Descending from a nearby tree, 'Nia shuddered as a frosty breeze tickled her tanned skin, her companian, Eros disliked the lack of heat, shivering while poking his jade colored head out of a small, wooden basket 'Nia was holding.

Henia wasn't acustomed to the cold weather that the Town Square offered at this time of year, she heavily prefered the warmer, more tropical feel of the forest, another wave of cold winter wind tangled with her scarf, almost carrying it away with it, she shivered once more, 'till she saw a sign that read 'Broken Blade Tavern & Inn'.

"Finaly", she whispered to herself.

She opened the door to see a few people mingling in the bar and a few
chatting by the fireplace, she shuffled her way to the counter and sat on a comfy chair in the corner.

The door to the inn opened and shut with a small wind full of powdery decoration spilled across the floor. The snow quickly melted where it settled as a small boy stamped his black leather booted feet, while carrying a large lizard-like creature, many to know that it was a small dodongo, not close to being fully grown. A real ranger would know that it was still a mite - a growing salamander.

"Y-y-you be good and I get you real food, y'hear me, G-Gwyndel?" Mirrari whispered towards the white and orange creature. He put the salamander down and looked around, my was it packed with people! He wondered shyly as an after-thought if the people wouldn't mind Gwyndel inside or if he should have asked. It was just too cold for her really!

"S-stay cose to me," The Rito child walked unsteadily and wormed his way towards the bar, closest to the fireplace. Gwyndel just moved things aside as she passed. A few startled glances around from the patrons and border-line neutral looks followed the bowed white-blonde mop and his companion. When he got to the barkeep he cleared his thoat nervously.

"Hm, ah. I-is it possible to, ah, g-get something hot to eat and drink please?" He was very intimidated by all the adults in one room, but he was a big boy! He can do anything, especially if he was sent on such an important mission. Gwyndel tapped her claws on the wooden floor, watching the motion lazily with barely contained irritation. He had gotten a nod from the busy person from behind the counter and he went to go get a seat near the fireplace. Once sitting the boy unslung the cittern he was carrying on his back to fine tune the instrument. Gwyndel followed like a tame pet and laid herself close to the fire to warm up.

Stepping through the snowy grounds, Blade soon found himself at the doors of one of the inns at Hyrule Castle Town. Before entering, he glanced over in the general of Death Mountain. Volvagia had decided to stay there rather than come down to the chilled area Blade now stood in. And he couldn't blame the fiery creature either. The thief already didn't like being in the cold so much, and he doubted that Volvagia would like it any better.

Not wanting to stay out in the cool and snowy air, he opened the door and stepped into the warmth. Almost immediately he felt a sense of relief wash over him as he did so.

For a moment, he glanced around at the other patrons of the inn, spotting a familiar Rito and Dodongo not too far away. And just as before, Mirrari seemed to be a bit nerve wracked. A bit amused, he made his way over towards the young Rito, standing near the fireplace as well.

"Hey there. Didn't expect to see you here Mirrari. How've you been?"

[[ Tee hee I shouldn't be posting since I'm at work. Hopefully I won't get caught. *adds more since I didn't finish by the time I had to jet out of work* ]]

Mirrari's eyes widened. "H-hey there! I-I'm doing well," the Rito smiled his beaky smile, "I was entrusted t-to a real adventure this time Mister Blade." He replied as a matter of factly. But Gwyndel grumbled. She wasn't happy to see Blade Kuroda, having picked her up like a shrimp. Well she was bigger now and no amount of strength could lift her!

"Here you go boy," the serving wench said when in range of hearing as she laid a platter down. The meal was festooned with gravy and mashed potatoes other vegitables and had a bit of seasoned chicken to the side. His mug contained hot spiced cider. Before the wench tuned to go away she looked at Blade and then to Luna.

"Can I get anything for you two?" The woman looked Blade up and down and then Luna.

Gwyndel sniffed around making a grumbling sound. She smelled mushrooms, her favorite. "Gwar!" She anounced to Mirrari.

"Oh yes, Mister Blade, it seems that I-I've kept my at-t-tacker. She's really, nice, a-actually w-when she isn't feeling like a sore - Ow! - I mean," Mirrari's eyes squinted back from the pain in his leg since Gwyndel headbutted him, "I mean s-she's the most wonderful companion an-anyone could ask for, and her lovely name is Gwyndel."

A suddenly distracted Melisande veered off towards the fireplace as Rellen shooed away the pink flames remaining on the hem of her skirt. She glanced at Dules, his upper body resting on the bar top as the waitress let loose a stream of high pitched giggles, and then at Melisande, who was now seated before the fireplace casually sticking her hands into the flames and pulling out small handfuls of fire. Rel took a deep breath, let as much agitation as possible go with its release and then reached for the shot placed before the man seated beside her. Before the man could voice his refusal Rel had downed the spicy liquor and turned for the fireplace with long, confidant strides. She tossed the shot glass to the floor and plucked Melisande up off the hearth.

“Rel no! Rel no! Rel no! Rel no!” Melisande’s pleading rang in Rellen’s ears. The fire collected in her hands fell away and dissipated as her little black wings began to beat violently against Rellen’s arms. It was clear to Rel that she had to get Melisande out of the building, if Melis happened to reemerge it wouldn’t be easy to maintain a low profile. Luckily it appeared as if the other guests maintained a volume able to mask the whines from the little pink scarecrow. Rel skimmed the room for Dules and by chance caught his eye. His tanned face pinched up at the sight of Melisande’s pink hands entangling themselves in Rel’s thick black strands and without a goodbye to his barmaid he pushed himself through the crowd, a stream of curse words trailing behind.

[[Just to update everyone I have two more customs on the way and I'm not too keen on RPing them quite yet (so I dunno what they're doing in the midst of all this) but I did give short descriptions of them in my journal. Also changed in Melisande's relationship with Rel and Dules, the weapons they prefer, and yeah I think that's about it. To see the updates check out the journal!]]

Star shook wildly as the melted liquid finally caught her sheltered skin, the warmth was fighting away at the chills and every now and then she would try to shake the remaining ones off. The blue aura's around her floated comforting the creature, she would raise a paw to try and pat one familiar looking head, before it disappeared to re-appear somewhere else giggling at the wolfo's tries.

V watched this, the spirits always fascinated her, wondering where they came from all of a sudden after summoning the skull accidentally. Her eyes wandered, finally getting a drink from the bar she felt too crowded and looked over by the cozy fire; gasping enthusiastically, her gaze shifted to the dark companion - Star nodded in comprehension.

Making their way over, V paused seeing the faces of a small pup and the woman she had apologized to at entering, it was nice to find a friendly face through out the whole crowd, it wasn't that she was scared just nervous. Being closed in by strangers was always... Quite nerve racking. "Mind If I join you?" she smiled, bowing her head a little. Star bowed her head too, the glowing spirits tilted their head clueless in their curiosity.
