Jay: Cotty sat in the grass looking down at her feet, it wasn't warmer than normal but she felt like she was over heating. That is why she went outside to cool down. She wasn't lucky in her attempt to find a breeze as it seemed to be a pretty stagnant day. This made her huff as she was uncomfortably hot. Perhaps she was getting sick. In her mind she imagined that she was terribly ill and going to die at any second. However Cotty normally was over dramatic and thought nothing but the worst would ever happen.
hobo: Mikhail happened to be outside, stretching his wings for its entire span. It felt good to stretch out since it was hard to keep his body parts to himself while in the crowded school. With a grin, he happened to notice another fallen... Well a hybrid but that didn't bother him.
He approached the other, tilting his head. "Hello! Did you decide to stretch your wings too?" He asked curiously as a smile lined his face. "Today is nice, isn't it? Maybe a tad too hot but that's what wings are for, right?" He fluttered his wings to produce a nice breeze.
( Jay ): Cotty hadn't even really noticed the other before they approached her. She was too busy trying not to over heat, she wished she had something other than this uniform. His voice almost startled her, she did panic a little and slightly jumped when he spoke. "Oh lordy, you startled me. Why no I came out here because it's too hot in there." She motioned to the academy, and ran a finger around her collar. She admitted it felt really nice when he flapped his wings toward her. "ooh well that does feel nice" she attempted it with her own wings but she couldn't fan herself. This made her pout, and narrow her eyes to her wings.
Hobo : "Sorry, was just trying to make conversation." Mikhail smiled. The young fallen couldn't help but laugh about at her pouting. "Oh... If you are having trouble, I could always give you a breeze. It's the least I could do for scaring you." He smiled again, this time more timidly. His wings fluttered, giving the other a good breeze. "Better?" He asked curiously.
( Jay ): Cotty shrugged at his comment "Guess I can't fault you for trying." When he laughed she narrowed her eyes at him. The glare soon subsided when she felt the breeze from her wings cool her down to a comfortable level. "That is much better, so I suppose I should introduce myself. My name is Cotty. Just Cotty, despite what you may here, my joke of a care taker gave me a god awful name, so it's just Cotty." She looked at the other and cocked her head to the side.
Hobo : Mikhail nibbled his lip as he thought, "Cotty? Is it short for uh... Collette? No, no... I... Don't know what it could possibly be." He mused outloud, "okay! Cotty it is! I'm Mikhail! It's nice to meet you cotty!" He beamed excitedly, sticking out his hand to offer to shake hers.
( Jay ): Cotty bit her lip debating wether to tell him her name, she supposed he would hear it eventually from someone. "It's Cotten... Cotten Kandi." She looked down again at her feet. She really hated her name, she thought it was silly and stupid and not really a name at all. "Mikhail, what a lovely name" She looked at his hand and bit her lip then sat on her hands as a unspoken gesture that she wouldn't be shaking hands. She was weird about being touched and even something so polite as a handshake bothered her.
Hobo: Mikhail blinked a few times in disbelief at her name. He then beamed a smile, "sounds pretty sweet and I like it... But I'll call you cotty cause that's whacha wanted me to call you." After she denied his hand shake, he thought she didn't like him. He wanted to leave.. Not be a bother to the girl. Maybe he was annoying her and she wanted him to go.
Mikhail bit his lip, taking a deep breath. She hadn't asked him to leave... So maybe he was over thinking again? He gave her a few more little flutters before flopping on his back next to the other. He smiled to her, "don't like handshakes or..." It was his way of seeing is it was him she didn't like.
( Jay ): Cotty rolled her eyes, she heard that everytime that she told someone her name. It was so not her, she was anything but sweet and she was proud to be herself. She could tell the boy thogut there was somthing wrong with him and she wanted to reassure him that thier wasn't but she didnlt know how. "I have a weird thing about touching." She put a hand behind her neck embarrassed. "it's not you though, no one touches me, not even Dina and she tries boy does she try. Dee is better with my space but Dina..." She sighed thinking about her siblings.
Hobo : Mikhail was more than relieved, "oh! That makes sense." He replied, pulling his hands behind his head. "Sorry your siblings don't give you space.... I wish I had siblings. I was abandoned when I was a stone and have been here ever sense." It was pretty lonely and it honestly ate at him from time to time. Mikhail closed his eyes, "what's your family like?" He asked curiously, envious of the other simply from them having a family... Even if it was just their siblings.
( Jay ): Cotty gave him a smile trying to reassure him that it wasn't him at all. "They aren't really ad great as you may think, but I do love the little buggers. We all came from one stone that was left at an oprhanage, so yeah we came here too. They arent much of a family but its enough. Well Dee is kinda stubborn but once he gets his mind to something he ssure does it. It's really cool, and Dina she's silly she always tries to keep us happy... which for me isn't easy. She also has a little temper you got to watch out for her. But over all we work, and it's not so lonely."
Hobo : Mikhail signed, "must be nice." He said, lost in thought before smiling brightly again. "So... Cotty, whacha like to do?" He asked, "I enjoy flying and art and... A lot of stuff." He laughed.
( Jay ): Cotty shrugged, it wasn't all that great but she had something that she understood a lot of others didn't. She didnt know what that felt like since she had always had her siblings there was never a time when she was without them. "Well I like to read, and write. I like to sing some, i'm not very good at it but I do enjoy music. Tell you the truth i've never flown at all, well I hoverd once but I don't fly much."
Hobo: Mikhail blinked, a bit surprised. "I like to read too, writing not so much... But reading is really fun." He smiled big to her, "you like to sing? I bet your voice is super good!!! Maybe one day you can go on the show belows got talent!" He mused happily... Enjoying the company.
( Jay ): Cotty shrugged, "My voice isn't that great, I just sing sometimes because songs get stuck in myhead and thats the only way I know to get them out. My sister is a much better singer, what do you like to read?" Cotty seemed to be warming up to the fallen boy slowly.
Hobo: Mikhail smiled, "Well... I bet you are better than you think." He told her with confidence in his voice. His brows pinched together as he thought of what he liked to read the most then smiling brightly. "Well... I really like fantasy books.... but I have been reading a lot of flight books. I'm trying to perfect flying!" he exclaimed, fluttering his wings.
( Jay ): Cotty actually laughed and the sound startled her since she rarely heard it, "maybe I'll sing one day. I like mystery books. I don't like flying" her face scrunched up. "I've never been able to do it with all this fluff" she motioned to her whole body.
Hobo : "Hmm.... Maybe when you are older and super strong? Then you surely could fly with no problem!!!" Mikhail commented, tapping his chin thoughtfully before smile brightly to her. "Then maybe we can fly together!"
