Another RP Group, Duh ;) discussion

((...))

Acantha strolled through a small field, singing in her clear cool voice. The flowers are bent slightly, as if trying to get closer to her.

Dasta looked at the flowers disgustedly. "Honestly Acantha. Why sing for flowers when you could sing for a lot of better things, such as people with fat purses and willing to toss coins to you?" He asked, kicking a morning glory away.

Acantha glared at him. "Because the flowers actually appreciate the singing. And I have no need of coins..." she reminded him before singing again.

"They appreciate you singing by dancing on their stems? Hardly appreciative if you ask me. Besides, who doesn't need coins? The world thrives off of money, and I thrive off the world same as you. So why can't you sing for an eager audience?" He suggested, trying to futilely persuade his friend.

"Maybe you'll understand when your older...Money is not the most important thing out there..." Acantha chuckled.

"mmhm... until I find something more important, why don't you amuse me? My own purse would love to feel as full as the other purses in the town."

"You'll just have to figure that out yourself, you know I cant help you there..." Acantha sighed.

"Of course you could! Just sing a couple of ditties, lilt a love song or two, warble a ballad and viola! more than enough money to last us the next few days, and full stomachs with warm food. What could be better? You have to admit that doesn't sound bad." Dasta prodded.

"Nature has the best food, and the best part is, its free..." Acantha said serenely, in true Elvin fashion.

Dasta groaned loudly. "Come on Acantha! Not that I don't thank mother nature for everything, I do. But wine does not taste the same when you make it yourself. Or ale. Or beer... or roasted and seasoned fowl." He pointed out food after food in detailed embellishment. Mind bent on getting a good plate of something other than bread and greens tonight.

She rolled her eyes and turned her back on him. "You know I do not eat meat" she said softly. "And you know the best wine comes from the Elves. I have everything necessary right here in nature..."

"Ugh! Come on Acantha, please, do this for me!" Dasta complained loudly, "I haven't eaten meat in three days! It's long enough to drive a man mad!! You know I don't have the same reserves that elves do. I'm not a crazy tree hugger that can live off of bread and vegetables alone!" Of course this was all complete rubbish. His stomach was simply running off on his young mind again.

"If you need it so badly, then go get it. Im not stopping you am I?" she said firmly, making it clear she would not help him out.

((gtg, bye!))

Dasta let out a frustrated sigh. "I could, but you remember the last time I tried to pick somebody's pocket don't you?"

"that was your own fault" she muttered, rolling her eyes.

((last post =D))

Saphira stood closeby, letting the two bicker on as she studied the retreating flowers with intrest.

holly sat intentively against the cave wall, wondering if she must hide forever, the last human she saw stared at her beauty for hours while she was sleeping. "i havent quite figured out how to retract my wings, but i know i can because ive done it before." she looked as a dragon landed and turned human. who is he, she wondered, i must find out...

Stella came up from her little home underwater. She heard singing and arguing.

holly walked quietly to where the human dragon was standing
"what species are you???"
she asked

Stella got out of the water and flew over to the arguing people and changed into her human form, her pitch black hair dry even though she just came out of the water.

Dasta cried out in shock. "Bwaha!" The force of the dragon's wings threw him to the ground, where he landed with a thump. "Where did all of you come from?!" He demanded, still startled to be approached by so many creatures.

"im well...
i dont know im sort of a mutt, i was just wondering because your dragon form is so beautiful"
she says

"my parents?? umm i dont have any...
well i did but umm they got banished for all eternity
and im sort of the reason...
my mom was an angel and my father well a demon of some sort"

((Can I join?! This sounds interesting))

((yeah))

Dasta scowled, rising up from the ground and dusting himself off. "Who are you then?" He asked.

"im holly"
she said
"i am the only one of my kind, who are you??"

((Problem is that once we're done with introductions we'll either get a bunch of mushy romance, or it will die off. So I'll make an antagonist.))

((lolz kk))

((i was reading through that and about to suggest that, but im not so great at that kinda thing so im glad you did ^^))

"I'm Saphira. i came when i heard the flowers moving" she said, turning to the rest of them, studying them in silence for a few moments until she knew she had memorized it all. she suddenly realized she felt oddly, satisfyingly warm. she realized there was heat coming from Adrian with surprise.

"hi. what species are you?? im sorry im just... ive been in hiding for soooo long i don't know anything. i cant even control my powers fully"

"Dasta, I'm human. Oddly enough, the only one in these parts." He replied.

"human?? most humans go gaga over me. im looing for a trainer to help me retract my wings whenever i want"
she said in confusion

Saphira smiled consolingly at Holly. "im a weredragon. i might be able to help teach you. then again, so might Adrian."

Loona wandered though the feilds.

He cocked an eyebrow at her. "Don't flatter yourself, just because I'm human doesn't mean I act like one. Comes from being around an elf for so long,"

"oh well fine. im still so confused.. i mean where am i even. and what am i. is there some kind of handbook??"
holly said struggling to fight back the urge to freeze the entire place and cry

"we all wish there was, at first. but u can learn just by practice on your own" Saphira said to Holly.

"i have been. for almost a century. im glad i dont age. in looks at least. ive got my freezing power down. and my blowing up. i just cant retract my wings!!"
she said in an awkward ton

"maybe you werent ment to retract your wings" Saphira suggested.

"ive done it before. on accident though and they dissapear making me almost human looking.
only happens when im scared. i thought maybe if i control it i could be normal."
she sighed
looking at saphira

Saphira smiled, amused. "maybe u just need to scare yourself more often. or try to remember how it felt last time you were scared, and how you retracted your wings then."

"Or maybe you should try thinking how birds do it," Dasta suggested, looking at the prospects of ever getting a meal tonight.

" i have some duck in my cave if you guys want it
i cant eat anything"

miley thinks about being scared and birds for a second
she feels a tingley sensation in her back

"im not hungry" Saphira replied calmly.

"oh well are they gone??"
she felt for her wings and they were gone
for a split second then they came back
"uggh"
she said

"that was good" Saphira said, her eyes sparkling. "just practice. my mom-" she got a sad look to her eyes that disappeared in a second "-always used to say that practice makes perfect."

"whats wrong??"
she knew that look
it was the look her mom had when she saw her dad banished to oblivion
it was the look her mom had when she was cast from the heavens
it was the look angel had when she cried herself to sleep

Saphira looked down, suddenly hurting painfully inside. she shrugged.
