 Heading towards the forest, Twinkleshine was planning on searching for some wood to bring into the home, as well as whatever wild fruits may be coming into season. Hopefully she would be able to tell which were poisonous and which were not, but that was unlikely. She really had no survival skills, and it was really lucky that she had such a good friend to take her in after leaving the tree with Sparrow. The little rascal was quite the handful, but she really enjoyed watching the little bird grow and come to live in the world. Maybe some day the two of them, or at least she, would be able to return to the tree and resume their (her) live(s),
But, that would have to wait until the future. For now, all that mattered was creating a comfortable living for the three of them, and for meeting the other pae living on the island.

 Adamm hunted, or at least did his best to hunt, he was always trying to help his mother around the home, feeding himself, his mother and sister was sometimes a challenge, but somehow the male managed to catch enough to feed them. Today his target was a rabbit, and while he was a pretty decent hunter, his colors were not helpful so he was wearing a weird little outfit constructed of leaves to try and blend into the environment.

Moving into the forest, Twinkleshine looking among the ground for any decent-sized sticks to bring with her. Blinking, she had to catch herself as she almost stepped on a strangely dressed pae near her feet, she having not notice him until just a moment before. Sighing softly, she yelped as she almost let her sticks drop to the ground, sighing yet again as she managed to catch them. Leaning forward, she gave the pae a light tap on the shoulder, pausing for him to acknowledge her before giving a half-wave. "Oh, hey there. I'm Twinkleshine, nice to meet you. I don't think I've seen you around here before...?"

Startled by the pae tripping over him Adamm sat up, and pulled the leaf-mask away from his face. Now what she could see was a brightly colored red face with a star on his right side of his chin looking up at her. "Hi, I don't think I've met you either, or anyone who looks like you for that matter... I'm Adamm.... Who are you?" he paused and looked her up and down, she looked almost like a faun but yet she wasnt "And uhmm no offence but, what exactly are you?" he was not trying to offend her but he certainly was curious.

Laughing, Twinkleshine tilted her head. "I just told you, I'm Twinkleshine!" All the pae here seemed to have such strange names, she wondered where any of them came up with them. Well, they were just as strange in appearance as in name, his brightly colored and decorated skin noted. Sure, the other fauny could be fairly flamboyant, but they didn't have strange markings everywhere, only their cutie-marks on their hips. Shrugging, she wondered how that could be offensive. "I'm a fauny. We only arrived here a few months ago, so it's not completely weird that you haven't seen us. Most of us just stay in or near the tree." Blinking, she thought a moment. "Though, I would have thought by now that nearly everyone here knew." Then smiling, she brushed off the thought. "What are you doing?"

]Adamm blushed a little though it wasn't obvious due to his coloring "Sorry i'm a bit forgetful. I'm hunting, I need to catch some food for my mom, sister and me" he stood up pushing the hood down from his outfit so now his whole mop of curly yellow hair was visible as he held a hand out to the Fauny to shake "Nice to meet you" he tells truthfully "I don't go out too much, least not to many new places, I've never been near that Tree everyone talks about for certain though.... I think at least"

Moving a bit awkwardly to hold her wood in one arm, Twinkleshine moved to receive his hand and shake it, only dropping a few of the sticks in the process. Rather than moving immediately to pic them up, she instead ignored them. "It's very nice to meet you too!" she replied cheerily, her smile fading slightly as he used a term she could never understand. "I'm sorry, but... What is hunting?" Tafari had used the term before, as had Atlantis, but the girl could never understand what they were actually referring to. It felt less embarrassing to ask a stranger about the topic than one of her friends.

Adamm stared at her for a moment What was hunting? she didn't know??? the male didn't understand how anyone didn't know what hunting was. "Well uhm, hunting is finding prey usually to eat and tracking it and well... killing it... Mom always said though... never kill an animal for fun, only for sustenance!" He wasn't trying to sound like a know-it-all, but it was the only way he knew how to describe hunting, and it was true what his mother had taught him. "You have never hunted for your meals?" he questions her with a look of curiosity on his face.

Blinking, Twinkleshine pouted, the information registering in her head. She had never actually put two and two together, that what little meat she ate had come from a living animal, and that her wishing to eat it had caused its death. How monstrous of her! Why... Who would ever wish to kill another living thing? Shaking her head, she looked away, her body remaining as it was, "I just eat what others find; I'm not the best cook after all..." deciding that she needed to end on a positive note, she returned her eyes to him, her smiling returning, "...besides, I prefer sweet things. Y'know, berries, fruits, candy, and pastries!"

He raised one brow, why was she frowning, hunting to feed one's family wasn't a bad thing. "But meat is good.... Have you tried a nice rabbit stew?" he scratched his chin in thought. "What did you say your name was again?" He stooped down and snatched up the few sticks she'd dropped and offered to place them in the pile in her arms while he waited for her answers, he had a bad memory and chances were he'd probably wind up asking her again later something he already had once or twice.

She shook her head. "Never, not that I can remember at least." Laughing lightly, she opened her arms to let him place the sticks inside of them, turning to brush him lightly with her tail. "I'm Twinkleshine. Twinkle...Shine! It's not that hard to remember, I don't think. One of the more normal names really. The princesses have harder names to remember, cause they don't really make sense."

He set the last of the sticks in her arms and proclaimed "You are missing out! It's yummy, mom makes it really tasty." ok yes the male was bragging on his mother's behalf but he did enjoy her cooking quite a lot. "Twinkle Shine.... can I call you Twink?" He thought perhaps that would be easier to remember "I kinda have a bad memory" he admitted flushing slightly but that was only really visible where the star spread across his chin due to his coloring. His eyes darted about as they talked, obviously he was slightly still in hunt mode, and he wanted to be able to bring home meat for the night's supper

Looking to the sky a moment, she mused lightly. It was hard to remember how her mother's cooking had tasted; it had been so long since they left after all. What did she even cook anyways? Mostly salads and breads and such. Returning her attention to him, she shrugged, "Don't moms usually make the best food? At least, every one I've met had been a super good cook!" Laughing again at his statement, she nodded, "I can kinda tell. Mine isn't the best, but I at least remember names, no matter how silly, Adamm." She titled her head as she noticed his eyes looking around. "Are you looking for something?"

"Yeah one sec, shhh" he put a finger to his lips "be right back" he whispered to her then darted into the bushes his makeshift weapon and his bag in hand. There was a kerfuffle in the foliage and a few minutes later a triumphant Adamm emerged once more with his bag in hand now appearing to have something in it. "Got it! Ok uhm, what were we talking about?..." he paused looking thoughtful and then it was like a light turned on "Oh yeah! Stew! You want to come try some? Mom is going to make it after I get home." He'd completely forgotten that she'd just insinuated that his name was silly, or that she'd asked him if it was true his mom usually made the best food in his mind

Blinking, Twinkleshine stood there awkwardly as he left. How rude to leave in the middle of a conversation! Oh well, she must have been rude in interrupting him as well, so she could overlook it in this instance. She did, however, raise an eyebrow as he returned with his bag now fuller; what could he have gotten...? Her thoughts derailed at the mention of food. Who in their right mind could refuse a meal, even from a stranger? Grinning, she gave him a thumbs-up, "I'd love to! But..." she trailed off as she remembered her bird back at home. "I'd have to run off to let my friend know that I'm not going to be coming home for dinner first. Is that okay with you?"
