Flerida was in a foul mood, not only did Huni not bring her anything after disappearing for months, she had been forced out of the house as well.
"Fresh air will be good for you, now run along and make some friends!" Huni ordered cheerfully before pushing Flerida out of the house and into the street. Quickly she closed the door shut and locked it, effectively keeping the Fable out.
The Fable frowned grumpily at the memory, how was she expected to make friends? She didn't even know what friends are. Were they some sort of food or clothing? Were they pets? In her lonely wanderings, she had arrived at the forest near the village. With the heat from the noonday sun beating down on her, she quickly retreated into the shade of the trees.
With a soft sigh she settled down at the trunk of a particularly large tree and thought to herself what must it be like to climb one. Her talons weren't very useful for climbing, and she possessed no wings to help her up. Besides, she'd probably end up tearing her dress and she knew nothing about needlework. Her guardian could barely mend a hole in her kerchief, let alone a dress.
This wouldn't be so bad if she had someone to talk to besides the rocks. Talking to rocks wasn't weird, not to her but she'd like to hear a voice other than her own.
((feel free to jump in biggrin the more the merrier and Riddy desperately needs to interact with other Fables 3nodding ))

"And just what are you doing here, girl?" he asked as he came across her. He wasn't in the best mood in the world, and he happened to be trekking down into the town from his house in the woods to buy supplies. He supposed, however, that it would be alright to stop. He wasn't much of one for strangers on "his" roads, but this one was at least quiet. The last few he'd suprised had run off like scalded rabbits. Fun to chase, no fun to talk to. Ah well. He paused, and leapt up onto one of the boulders near her, looking at her crossly, then sighing. "Ok - maybe that wasn't the best way to greet someone. My name's Aekepi. Call me Aeka. And you DO realize you're on my road, right?"

Flerida glanced up at the voice and stared back at him. He had golden eyes like she did. But he was far more aggressive and louder than she was. She quirked a brow at him, folding her hands primly on her lap, hiding them in the long hem of her sleeves.
"I'm Flerida and I didn't see your name on the road." she answers without batting an eye. "As for what I'm doing here, Aeka, my guardian sent me out to make friends. Do you know what a 'friend' is?" she asks, not even the least bit concerned that she didn't know what a friend was.

He paused for a moment, as if taken aback by the statement, then burst out laughing, falling off the rock he was on, he was laughing so hard. His tail lashed in the air, as he writhed on his back in helpless mirth.

The Fable blinked at the young man's sudden fit of laughter. What exactly was so funny? She felt her face grow hot in embarrassment and her talons dug into the ground in anger.
"Why are you laughing?" she scowled, her arms folding across her chest while she pursed her lips.

Aeka quickly wiped tears of mirth from his eyes, and the laughter died down into soft chuckling. NEVER had he seen someone so.... NAIEVE in his life! She didn't know what a friend was, eh? "A friend's someone you like, and who likes you. Not like LIKE like, but just like to be around. Friends are fun. I'll be your friend if you want. I wasn't really laughing at YOU so much as the situation."

Flerida's brows knit together as she tries to take in the other Fable's explanation. It seemed to her that Aeka was far more experienced in wordly matters than she was. Then again, she supposed if she hadn't been cooped up inside the house all these months she'd know what a friend was.
"So a friend is like a title for someone?" she clarifies, still unsure about the concept. "You will be my friend?" she blinks, feeling herself smile despite the lingering annoyance of being laughed at. Even if Aeka explains he wasn't laughing at her, it still felt like he was.

"He would no more make a better friend than an enemy." Murmured a voice beside her, and around the trunk came a rather large dragon-teen, curling up a bit and sitting beside the harpy-like girl. "It's been a while, Flerida. I've been worried." His golden eyes glanced to hers, kept emotionless. He didn't need Aekepi teasing him about 'feelings' or such things, but that didn't mean he couldn't teach the coyote a lesson if the coyote so decided to push it.

Truth be told, Flerida barely remembered the dragon Fable. But she didn't think it was appropriate to let him know this.
"I have been well, Tasius." She responds with a small nod. "Huni has been disappearing now and again, though." she adds softly.

The dragon's eyes narrowed, and he furled his fingers, reaching up to brush her cheek gently. "I will investigate this." He murmured softly, before pulling away to leave.

Aeka's soft chuckle broke the silence, and his eyes fixed on Tasius. He didn't like the dragon. But then again, he didn't NOT like the dragon either. "So the scaly lizard finally shows his horned head." he spoke, mockingly, and with a swish of his tail. "It's been a while. I believe we have a fight to finish. Or maybe another one to start. Whaddaya say we arrange a friendly spar between you and I."

Flerida gave the older Fable a smile of thanks, "I hope I am not troubling you." she murmurs softly. Her gaze turns to Aeka as the other boy spoke, there was something in the tone of his voice that troubled Flerida. Cocking her head slightly at the mention of a fight, she looks to Tasius then back to Aeka. "Is there trouble between the two of you?"

"No; he is simply all bark... and no bite." Giving her a rare smile, he smudged his thumb across her cheek in a caring manner.
With a flash of wings, he was gone again.

Flerida waves to where Tasius had been, and turns to Aeka. "Are the two of you not 'friends'?" Flerida asks, it is still obvious that she hasn't properly understood what that word meant.

He shook his head rather angrily, and glared in the direction Tas had been seconds earlier. "We are by no means Friends. Though..." he paused, and looked down at the ground, perhaps a little remorseful for that statement. "I wish we could be. If perhaps someday..."
