This RP is between Namir (Divena & DivenasMom) and Αελλα (Angelique DelaMort) Namir snarled and snapped his fangs at the disappearing wind soqs, furious that they had gotten the better of him.

"Well that went well," Αελλα called down from her comfortable perch up in one of the tall trees towering over the swamp. Her barbed tail swung lazily in the air. "But you know what they say, a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. So what do you figure no birds are worth?"

Namir snarled, twisting to face his unwanted audience. "You," he growled. "How long have you been there?" The last thing he wanted was for someone to witness his humiliation. Worse, someone spreading rumors of such a thing. This wouldn't do.

"Oh I took up my perch around the time the little bluebird took a swing at you," she made a grimace. "Looked like a mighty painful confrontation, by the way, not so much for you physically but I bet your ego's feeling a little bruised right now. After all, a few little hatchlings coming into your swamp and...well aside from a few bitemarks, they're out unscathed. It's kinda sad really, we both know you're so much better than that."

His crimson eyes narrowed and his ears flattened against his skull as he eyed the dark colored Kalona. "And what, precisely, would you know of me?" While he could understand someone admiring his great intellect and skills after encountering him, he went to great lengthens to ensure few survived the encounter. He did not wish to be flocked by morons. And he knew he had never seen this... creature... before.

"Oh come now," she sighed shaking her head. "I guess we'll start with the obvious. You're a walker. To get that way you need to have a few things working for you and, no offense, strength and brute force really isn't your thing judging by that last encounter. So what do we have left, dumb luck? Please, you'd never make it out in this swamp full of its poisons, predators, and well...other surprises." She smirked and gracefully leaped down to the ground, "So what does that leave us with?"

He arched a brow. What that left was his impressive knowledge. It was clear she could use a bit of common sense, however it didn't mean that she was worthy of his time. However, as he had little better to do other than track down three very irritating bird brains, he waited to see where she was going with this.

"No need to be so coy," she said silkily. "I can practically see the wheels turning, a magnificent array of cogs and gears all working towards one end. You're very clever. Which makes me wonder," she added. "How did those three manage to evade your grasp?"

"And you are working hard to get into my good graces," Namir noted, neatly evading acknowledging the previous incident. "Which makes me wonder what it is you are aiming for."

"I always did appreciate directness," she said flashing a sharp smile. "But if you must know," she sighed and dropped her head morosely. "It's getting more and more difficult for those like us...too many little do-gooders running around, it's getting hard to even find a simple meal to sate my hunger, let alone my other needs."

"Your short comings are of no concern to me," he scoffed. "What do you hope to gain from this interaction?"

"An ally," she replied easily. "Nothing more, nothing less. Certainly we can be of use to each other...you with your stunning intellect and me with my...many skills."

He eyed her, skeptically. "Many skills, you say?"

She shrugged her spiked shoulders. "For example..." she spread her wide, almost translucent wings. "Those little birds wouldn't have escaped from me."

He eyed the hateful wings. Much as the skinwalker hated to acknowledge it, she did have a point.
