Chi Sohma Taerar Licorne Licorice fidgetted her paws as she stared down at them, afraid Beatrice would laugh at the reason. "I...um...I smell funny..." Licorice finally admitted. "Other numas don't seem to like it much...s-so I try to avoid them..." Beatrice: "Smell?" Bea's nose was experted beyond most of her abilities as a female. Hearing as well. She came up to the numa and sniffed and then moved to sniff the other's neck. "We all smell different, you smell just as weird as all the other ones I've met. I bet I smell weird too." Bea said with a gentle smile.
Licorice blinked in surprise at that remark. "No, you don't smell funny at all," she protested then sniffed her own paw. "I smell like that stuff from the swamp..."

Beatrice's paws touched the other fur to hold down as she sniffed. "No. You smell better. I don't smell no good. Bad." She looked at the other then gave a lick to the other's fin located some near the ear.
"You taste like... I dunno. You taste good too! Your yummy!" She said with a bright smile.

Licorice squeaked and could not help but giggle a little - that tickled! "You do too smell good!" she protested, sniffing at Beatrice's cheek since her face was already that close. Licorice hesitated before giving Beatrice's fin a return lick out of curiosity, relaxing more and more by the moment.

Beatrice's wings fluttered. A lot of other numas wouldn't lick back. That was different. She giggled softly and smiled. "Ah? I smell good? I did not know a turkey could smell good to another." She bowed her body to the other politely. "I am Béatrice. Nice to meet you... and grace with your presence." She said slowly raising her head.

Licorice blinked and pushed herself up so she could bow in return. She was still new to meeting other numas, so she assumed she was supposed to have bowed when she first met Beatrice. "Turkey?" Licorice asked in wonder. She was clearly still young as the word was new to her.

Beatrice's head rose with a uncertain smirk. "Ah. A turkey. Kinda like a chicken but with a bigger tail. And uglier." She said with certainty. She moved her head away from the other standing up on all fours. She circled around the other with some thought.
"You are but a child?" She said in a quite precise matter. The smell of the other tingled in her nose. Cherry flavored. She came to this conclusion in her head before pawing the others tuff hair down on her eyes.
"Quite Beauiful might I add."

Licorice started at that compliment and stammered in response, "I-I thank you for the compliment, but you're far more beautiful than I!" She nodded as if emphasizing her statement. "I'm just black and white...you're so colorful! And I would love to have wings like yours!"

"Black and white... I must say that those are fascinating colors.. contrasting perfectly" Beatrice said with a surreal tone. She nodded at the compliment and now made herself sit in front of the numa.
"These wings? Ah... You wouldn't want these things..." She reassured with a kinda of embarrassed face and hurt look. No one wanted these things.. They were her only defect. Beatrice opened her wings wide examining them over herself. "These wings... are my curse..." She said with a now cold tone. She looked at the numa as she closed her wings in. "I believe your wings are very pretty and sometime.. I could like to see them in action. It would.. be nice.." She smiled softly with a soft giggle.

"Why are they a curse?" Licorice asked innocently, unaware she might be bringing up a painful subject. "I'm not very good at flying yet..." she admitted with some embarrassment. "I can't go very high, and I haven't quite gotten the hang of landing yet." It was true - she tended to land on her face rather than her feet.

Beatrice sat poised as she tilted her head looking at the other numa. "They are a curse fore even with my age. I am-" She stopped and shook her head. "Like you. I can't get it right." she said to cover up the fact that she could not fly and would have to face the facts someday.
She wagged her tail some in a change of heart. "I could teach you how to fly. I know how. I just cant put it in to practice myself." She said tilting her head with a smile.

"Oh..." Licorice murmured, drooping. She had not guessed that Beatrice could not fly at all and wondered why, but she was not going to pry any further. Instead, she shook her head and beamed, trying to lighten the mood. "No - if you can't fly, I won't either! We can stay on the ground together!" She did not want to fly in front of Beatrice if it might upset her - that would just be rude!

Beatrice was some surprised at this. This little one had spunk she pondered to herself. "Really... though. Don't say things like that.. Flying is or.. must be a good expirence.. and I hope I can one day see you flying.." She said with a surreal look.
She pawed at the floor. "The ground is no fun..." She giggled lightly at this.

Licorice looked down at the chocolate dollars she had buried under earlier. "Looks like fun to me!" she chirped and snatched up one of the chocolate coins to hand to Beatrice. "Chocolate! It makes everything fun!" Licorice nodded at this as if it made sense.

She looked at the one numa. "Heh. I am chocolate but I doubt I make everything fun.." She scratched the back of her head some smiling. "Why don't we go for a walk or something? Or we could bury thoughs coins? You seem to like that a lot. Over protective?" Beatrice said with a soft laugh and humble smile.

"A walk sounds fun!" Licorice chirped and shook out her fur. "Where would you like to go?" She had not yet completely explored the lands - just the outskirts of the swamp and the chocolate coin hills - so going for a walk and exploring further sounded like a great idea.
