Welcome to Gaia! ::

Cobweb was quite content to prance about Everville. The other ponies were mostly friendly, there was such a homey feel to it, and she always managed to find the cutest little spiders around town. As things were, today was actually a spider collection day!

The pixie's saddle bags bounced along as her steps were on the upbeat while she hummed to herself. Today was going to be a wonderful day! Or at least she hoped so. Sometimes she was too late to save some spiders. A pout came over her face at the thought. "Nu, nu, nu! Don't think like that, silly! You can save spiders today!" With faith restored in herself and the other ponies in town, she continued onto one of her usual spider haunts.

Today just did not seem to be the best of days for finding spiders. A bit defeated, Cobweb skulked for a little bit as she tried to decide where she might be able to go next on her spider prowl. Talking to herself, the pixie the her wings flit now and again, hovering a few inches here and there. As the mare pondered and muttered to herself as to where she might have the best luck in finding spiders, she stepped under quite the large shadow. The pony almost didn't notice it, but when she did she was puzzled completely as she had been walking about with her head down and had made her way to the edge of town.

Head cocked to the side, her unique eyes began to peer upwards. "That's strange," she said to herself as she saw strange looking hoof-like... somethings that appeared to be clawed. Cobweb's head tilted the other way as her eyes continued their climb up the rather large limbs attached to the unusual feet. Eventually, her head was leaning back as if she were looking at a tall tower. "Oh wow! You're so big!" the small pixie said loudly, a glint in her eyes and a look of awe on her face!

Though it didn't take long for the shine of the strand of silk to catch her attention. With the biggest smile, her eyes followed it down to where the spider was hanging from the rather large... whatever that other "pony" was. "Oh my gosh! I've never seen a spider like this before!" Cobweb exclaimed.

Though the large pony-ish someone was surely fascinating to the little pixie, her eyes couldn't help but follow the white and blue spider as it moved downward. She smiled brightly as the small critter captured her attention. The way it moved with the motion of whatever it was pulling it up had all of her attention. The spider had all of her attention, period. Its colors were stunning and everything about just seeing it made the pixie excited! Especially since she hadn't run into any spiders on her adventure.

The sudden sound of the other's voice did spook Cobweb some. Those unusual eyes of hers were drawn up once again, re-evaluating the face of the one whom the voice belonged to. Not only did they seem so interesting as she got a better look, but they knew something about the spider! That made the tall one a-okay in her book!

"'Ice spider'?" she had asked with a bright smile and excitement written all over her face! "I've never seen one before!.. Then again, I've never been to, oh what was it you said?" she pondered a moment or two. "Winter's Breath! Yeah. That place." Cobweb was enthralled as the spider and what it would become as it grew were described to her, but as the other began waving their arms about, she gasped! "Eep! the spider!" but the larger one already noticed and settled their movements. "Phew"

"Oh! Hi by the way! I'm Cobweb, but you can call me Webby if you want! What are you?"

Cobweb's head tilted to the side as she was seemingly scolded. Not that it bothered her if that's what the other was doing. "I'm sorry if I rubbed you the wrong way, but I did mean "what". I've never seen anyone like you before!" The pixie said that with a sweet smile on her face. The little pony gasped as she was told that they were a dragon! Those peculiar eyes of hers widened in awe. "Are you a boy or girl dragon?" She hadn't a clue what dragons sounded like in the first place, so better safe than sorry!

But of course, once again her eyes were drawn back to the spider. She began to speak to it and seemed to catch its attention. After a small chat, she nodded to the crawly critter. "Yeah... You certainly do need a cooler place, don'tcha little buddy?" Smiling she raised her head to look up at Faint. "I sure am interested in him! I adore spiders... but I'm sure you could tell that, huh?" A giggle sprung up from her. "I think we can find something like that." Her little ears had caught his muttering and a little smirk showed up at the corners of her mouth. "You sure you're gonna fit in a freezer?"

Cobweb hadn't really taken how Faint had been acting personally. Stuff usually just rolled off her shoulders pretty easily. "Well, I think being such a big dragon compared to most of us around, you might still be a bit. I bet if you smiled more, you wouldn't come off that way~" She beamed up to him happily.

Her head had cocked to the side slightly at Faint's reaction to her question. Had she said something wrong? She pondered this a moment before words began to answer. "Oh! Well hi again, big fella!" she chimed, a giggle escaping from her as he poked at her playfully a little bit. "I'm a pixie! We haven't been out in the world much lately until recently ourselves! We're pretty tiny compared to the rest of pony kind." Webby gave a small wiggle. "I actually like being this small. I get into areas where there's more spiders!"

She was happy to accept the spider from her new friend, lifting her leg and letting it settle on top of her head. "We sure can try! Pixie houses are a wee bit smaller than other pony houses, so it might take some work getting you in there. I think we could do it, though!" Her smile never faded as she turned about face. "Follow me, Faint! My home is on the other side of the town~" And with that, the pixie hovered a few seconds before starting off for home, only turning her head back for a second to make sure he was following.
