Welcome to Gaia! ::

Being a rather observant girl, Belladonna looked up from her little seated area in the woods to see a bit of blue flashing through the trees. Having been preoccupied with being a woodland maiden straight from her favorite Grimm Fairy Tales, Belladonna had been busying herself most of the afternoon with braiding some bloodrot flowers in along the stems of any lily of valleys she spied. (Most creatures found lily of the valleys completely unassuming, but Belladonna knew full well that every single part of that flower and subsequent plant was highly poisonous, so she couldn't help but love it dearly.) The flower chains would look delightful hung around her dorm room window and this was as good a chance as any to get some fresh air before classes started. That was, of course, until she spied that blue thing flitting through the trees.

Dislodging the unfinished (and a few finished) flower chains from her lap, Belladonna jumped up and quickly followed after the blur.
"Hello!" Belladonna called after the thing, assuming it was a creature of some sort and very well prepared to discover if it wasn't. Perhaps it was a new animal in which she could befriend! Why, Binx wasn't with her today (silly thing, saying he needed some more sleep after that rat fiasco or another) and she had needed someone to talk to as she'd run out of funeral songs to sing to herself.

It was only natural that when she caught up to the pretty blue thing that it ran into a tree and came crashing down. The scream Belladonna gave for its concern probably didn't make it feel much better, but it sure made her feel like she was doing something. Perhaps she should work on her introductory techniques? And really, it wasn't her fault she was so curious that any little thing caught her eye.

"Oh great Hectate, are you alright?!" She cried, crashing beside the thing to assess the damage. "I am SO SORRY. I--I didn't think you'd run into a tree! I figured you were a bit more focused--I guess you weren't expecting me, I truly apologize! You're not hurt are you?"

The creature seemed much smaller now that it was lying on the ground in front of her. And what if it was hurt?! Sure, she knew posionous plants but she didn't know many healing plants! Why really, who in Halloweentown had much use for a healing plant? That was much more left to those fleshies, though she did know a number of witches that used various plants to help restore lost FEAR, so that was similar she supposed. ACK. NO. Can't let the mind wander. Belladonna HAD to find out whether this thing was alright or not.

"Do what for? Call to you? I was curious... Some little blue thing flying through the trees! It was very odd you see." That would have to serve as an explanation for now.

Quickly the little creature was up and off the ground, pointing fingers in Belladonna's direction and making up jump a bit at its curt voice. It was so tiny! She hadn't meant to hurt him or make it angry... It had lovely amber-gold eyes and they looked so fierce!

"I'm very sorry, I didn't realize you were thinking." Hhhmmm. "I meant I didn't think you could be lost in your own thoughts! It was silly of me." Since she had already invaded his mind, it was only natural that she go ahead and invade his personal space. Doing her best to keep her hands to herself, Belladonna quickly circled the creature (why, it wasn't so small after all. It was the exact same height as herself!) to check for any wounds. "You look alright, though your jacket has a small tear on the back." Oops, causality of war she supposed. It was an easily fixed tear... That is if this creature would stop glaring at her long enough to mend it! Eek!

"What was I doing? Oh! I was over in that clearing!" She turned to point behind them, turning back and smiling at his hostile form. "I was braiding some bloodrot and lily of the valley together. They'll look lovely in dorm room! Need some color against all the black, you know?" It was true. She needed a bit of white to help the black curtain pop a bit.

Not taking the idea of her room needing more color as a 'personal problem', Belladonna instead pursed her lips in a pout and decided to ignore that remark. Obviously he was lacking in the home decor department, however stylish his outfit was. Anyone who preferred a dull bedroom was obviously off in the head.

"Oh it's just a small tear. A quick sew up will fix it, no problem!" Here she paused, looking the creature over. (The need to call it 'little' was overpowering, but she had a good feeling he wouldn't much appreciate that.) While he didn't look happy, she couldn't assume that was his natural state of mind. Maybe he was just having a bad day? And what bad day couldn't do with a little bit of mending? Or at least a small witch??

"Come with me! I've got a great sewing kit in my dorm, I'll fix it up for you!" She suddenly cried out, grabbing its hand and dragging it the way she had originally come. "I'm Belladonna! Its lovely to meet you, um..." Here she was expecting him to provide his name while she by passed all decent politeness by carrying him against his will.
