(5 posts)-
20 Feb 2012
'Wherein Lyra meets the Commissioner...'
Lyra flits and makes a small chirping noise as she approaches a rather large group in the middle of the street; she flits over next to the building just watching a moment.
Mac gives Victoria a quick glance, and nods, slipping off towards the north.
Victoria Silvansky nodded "No doubt you will, I try and make rounds to all the buildings at some point and time to make sure everything is well with the shop owners." then hearing a soft sound as she turned to see a little pixie as Victoria grinned widely stepping toward it with her faint hobble still in her step.
Anu Vaniva curtsies to the male with the melodious voice, "Perhaps I will visit this brothel sometime." She smiles at the male and his companion, the card wielding woman. Then, without further ado, she heads off.
Lyra waves to Victoria then flits over, "Hi!" Her little wings fluttering rapidly in curiosity. Her eyes search the woman for any pockets that may hold candy.
Lyra focuses a new skill of Dressmaking.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Dressmaking, successfully performs a physical discovery on Victoria Silvansky.
Victoria Silvansky smiled "Hello there little one, can't say I have seen you around ever, are you new to the city, or just adept at hiding?" chuckling faintly as she did not notice Lyra's eyes.
Lyra notices the bulge in her pockets and cranes her neck, looking unintentionally quite conspicuously to the woman's left pocket to try to peek inside, "I am Lyra!" She tilts her head, "I have never delivered messages to you. I am Astrid's companion."
Lyra focuses on their skill of Dressmaking, successfully performs a physical discovery on Victoria Silvansky.
Victoria Silvansky nodded hearing the name "Well met, I am Commissioner Victoria Silvansky." seeing the pixie looking in her pockets as she as Victoria swatted in the pixie's directing attempting to shoo her away from her pockets "Oy! What are you doing?"
Victoria Silvansky focuses on their practiced skill of Persuasion, successfully performs a physical influence on Lyra.
Lyra frowns scrunching her nose as she sees the chalk and flits backwards, "Chalk is -not- candy." Was her only response... Then smiles and waves "Hi Comishonerr Vick... You have a long name."
Victoria Silvansky heard the little pixie nodding as she reaching into her pocket pulling out the chalk "Indeed, chalk is not candy. I use it sometimes for my magic. As for my name it is indeed long. I just had changed my name for I was married a few days ago."
Lyra nods as she looks deep in thought... for a pixie anyway "Silvanskeee... Oh! Yes Astrid went.... I was at her wedding. There were lots of flowers...." She looks hopeful and smiles sweetly, "Do you have any flowers?"
Victoria Silvansky nodded with a smile "I did have quite a few flowers at the wedding, though I only have one bundle of them left all the others were given away to others. They are black, blue, and silver colored."
Lyra mouths an "Ohhhh" then nods, "Flowers are almost as good as candy. Do you like candy?"
Victoria Silvansky thought for a long moment on the question "Well I can't say I do, or at least I cannot eat it without one curricula ingredient." leaving it out on purpose.
Lyra nods and sighs heavily, then looks past her to see a familiar face, she waves as her wings flutter excitedly, "Glori!"
Glori crinkles her nose and grins. "Hello, Lyra! What are you up to today?" Glori also nods to Victoria cordially in greeting.
Victoria Silvansky turned to see Glori nodding slightly as she took a few awkward steps back "If you both excuse me I should be going. Both of you have a good evening."
Glori raises an eyebrow and shrugs. "Good evenin' t'ye then."
Lyra smiles big, "Comishoner has no candy." She waves to Victoria as she leaves, then whispers to Glori, "I was bored. Bastion wouldn't read me my fairy tale."
Glori pouts prettily at Lyra. "Well, what was he thinkin'…" Glori fumbles a bit at her reticule and pulls out a small bag, which she upends into her hand. Four sugar cubes glisten temptingly. "..but you know I always do, don't ye. Would you like one?"
Lyra nods, fluttering excitedly, in a flash moving to snatch one of the sugar cubes up.
Lyra focuses their skill of Gathering.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Gathering, misses in performing a physical presence on Glori.
Glori tilts her head as Lyra tugs at one of the cubes. "Should break that up for ye, aye… little too heavy?" She breaks one of the cubes up quickly using her fingernails and offers it back up again, smiling indulgently.
Lyra scrunches her nose and nods, looking shamefully as she takes the much smaller piece and takes a lick of the sugar. Her eyelashes flutter in time with her wings at the sugar, as she just kinda hovers lazily, "Thank youuuuu."
Victor Shatterblade leans against the corner of the cafe as he eyes the street...making note of who is nearby as he toys with a small coin
Glori: "You are very welcome." Glori takes the other half and pops it into her own mouth. "So what grand adventure are you on today. Seen anythin' fun?"
Lyra shakes her head saying simply, "No." Then adding, "Nothing fun yet, I thought about visiting Borris. I think he likes me."
Victor Shatterblade 's coin flickers in the faint light as it dances along his knuckles...letting his hair cover his face and hide his eyes
Glori gets an impish grin. "Oh, I am -sure- he'd love a visit. Shall we go there?"
Lyra nods excitedly, "Oh yes! Last time.... he gave me ice cream! Even though I hid his hat one time...." She giggles and flits towards the cafe.
Glori scurries to follow, giggling. -
'Borris tells a fairy tale... sort of.'
Lyra hops up the steps excitedly and waves to Mori.... she already got distracted by the woman long red locks, "Ohhhhhh prettyyyyy..."
Glori nods her head to Mori, eyes dancing. "G'day t'ye Miss. You've met Lyra, haven't you?"
Lyra: "I live with Astrid!"
MorighanStormcrow Fairey: "ello love how are you"
Victor Shatterblade pushes some of the hair from his eyes as the coin continue to flicker between his fingers as he strolls towards the cafe...giving Ro a slight nod as he climbs the steps
Glori 's eyes flicker to Victor as he ascends the stairs. She nods to him, a warm smile on her face. "Good evening, ser." she says, eyes occasionally glancing back to Lyra protectively.
Lyra smiles at the hair then looks over to Borris, She waves excitedly at him and flits over, some of her pixie dust falling from her wings as she does.
Victor Shatterblade nods to Glori "evenin darlin" toying with his coin as he strides past...glancing around the room before picking a seat on the couch
Glori follows Victor in, trailing him at a little bit of a distance, eyes still on Lyra as she goes to greet Borris. "Ye' might want t' stay on yer toes," she says to Victor, nodding to the back of the cafe. "…this could get interesting real quick."
Victor Shatterblade sets his feet up on the coffee table as he gets comfortable...making the coin seem to vanish with a flick of his wrist...turning his attention to the small fairy on the other side of the room "eh is that so?.....can always use a bit of fun" chuckling
Lyra flits up and waves to Borris, "Hi Borris!! Want to play?" She covers her mouth in surprise at the hole, "Is that what Bastion did?"
Borris: "lifted his hollow sockets setting them on little Lyra, "Hello m'lady. And yes Dr. Muircastle did this." His phalangeal would point gingerly to the bullet hole in his hat and by his tone, he was not pleased. "Now ... what can I get for you? Something with sugar I supposed?""
Glori grimaces. She walks a little deeper into the Cafe and waggles a finger to Borris to hopefully forestall the eventual barrage of hat-centered angst. "You be nice, now..." she says.
Lyra nods slowly, "Bastion wouldn't read me a fairy tale today, so I was bored. Would you read me a story?" She smiles big, her wings flittering as she looks at him doe-eyed.
Mac wandered over to a nearby table and chairs, to continue eating.
Glori inclines her head graciously to Mac, giving him a warm smile. "Evenin' ser," she murmur, eyes dancing.
Borris sighs, his empty orbs staring deep into the little pixie's. How could he resist, "Fine fine ... but keep in mind I do have to tend to the guests as well. What kind of story would you like little miss? Would you like to hear one about a doctor that owes a good samaritan a new hat?" He'd dart his glance to Miss Glori adding some punctuation to his sentence.
Lyra frowns and scrunches her little nose, "That doesn't sound good at all! I like the one about the princess..."
Mac gave a small nod to Glori, still eating. "Scuse me." he murmured, swallowing. "I've had a long day, and not much of a chance to stop."
Glori mutters, "Oy.... Get over it already…" but her smile to Borris is brilliant and charming as she walks over to the table. "Not a worry, ser. We'll see ye tonight, perhaps?"
Brising'r heads into the Cafe, looking toward the back corner where most where, "Good afternoon everyone." He takes a seat next to him.
Borris would stop a moment to contemplate the story. His boney finger tapping his fleshless chin. In a moment he would hold that same finger in the air, a soft knowing gasp escapes the spaces of his teeth, "I know one of those!" Before telling the story he'd rattle his bones at Glori a bit playfully then turn back to Lyra. "Ok ... here we go! Once upon the time there was a beautiful princess ... "
Lyra nods as her little wings flutter excitedly, "Yes! That's the one!" She swoons slightly as more dust begins to fall from her wings"
Glori turns as she hears Brising'r's voice, and she nods her head to him most formally. "An' to you, ser," she murmur. "Borris is tellin' wee Lyra a story…"
Brising'r would raise an eyebrow before slowly nodding, "That will be interesting to listen."
Borris: "Evening sir." He'd smile to Brising'r. "Please let me know if I can get you anything." Then he'd turn back to the pix continuing the story. "Well Lyra ... this princess was absolutely stunning. She was also well liked among the people but what she was most noted for besides her good graces and welcoming nature was her hat ... er, I mean her crown. She had the most magnificent crown!" Borris would put aside the broom he had absently picked up to sweep up the pixie dust under her and his hands would gently move up to his own hat. "The crown was the princess' most prized possession! But do you know what happened to her crown, Lyra?"
Mac quickly finished off his sandwiches, and looked over to Glori. "I'll catch up with you soon, Glori, I've some errands to run."
Glori winks to Mac. "'course. Safe paths to ye."
Lyra frowns, her wings begin to droop, "This isn't the same one Bastion reads to me.... I don't like where it's going."
Brising'r would nod to Mac as he leaves before looking back to the three, a raised eyebrow as he listens.
Borris shook his head a bit, "You don't? But there's a happy ending - there's always a happy ending. And - you haven't even heard about the wicked queen yet! Don't you want to hear the whole story?"
Lyra crosses her arms, "This is NOT the story. There's a witch and fairies... and and ... a Prince!" Her eyes look at the hole in Borris's hat a moment, "This is about your hat again isn't it! I should... I should turn it pink!"
Glori is shaking her head softly, an amused expression on her face, eyes closed.
Borris as even-tempered as ever, Borris would feign shock as he leaned forward on his broom, "YOU would turn my hat pink?!" He'd hold back a slight chuckle. "Simply because I haven't gotten to the best part of the story yet? The one in which the witch tries to eat the fairies ... but the fairies win with the princess' help?" He stared at her eyes-wide waiting for Little Lyra's reaction to the news of faerie power.
Lyra the little eyes go wide, suddenly forgetting her plans, she moves up next to him, "Reallyy? They do that?
Glori: "Not forgettin' the part about the nice Doctor that comes an' helps them, too," Glori adds with a pointed look to Borris. "Don't leave that part out."
Borris grinned at Little Lyra, "Well didn't you know? Fairies are quite powerful! In fact, they are probably the most magical of all creatures!" His voice was dripping of fairy tale magic. He'd turn his smile to Glori and offer her, "In this story ... there are no doctors, m'lady." He assured her with a knowing smile, "But there is a particular witch that's quite envious of a fine jeweled crown." If he could wink at that moment, he certainly would have.
Glori raises an eyebrow she actually has to Borris. "Ah yes. T'was a witch doctor. My mistake. With a heart of gold who was so horribly misunderstood by the townfolk.
Second Life: God always has another custard pie up his sleeve.
Lyra nods eagerly and puffs out her chest, "I'm powerful! I could make the broom sweep for you!"
Borris not one to slack off work, "You can? Why I would like to see that miss! I'm sure it's very impressive. Would you show me?" Borris held the tip of the broom by placing one finger on it, giving Lyra room to work with it.
Lyra nods as she concentrates very hard, feeling all the pixie energy inside her as she focuses on trying to enchant the broom to sweep on its own.
Lyra focuses a new skill of Enchantment.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, successfully performs a supernatural presence of 10% on the environment.
Glori smiles a bit and walks to join Brising'r at the couch. She'd nod to him again before taking a seat, murmuring softly, "He does go on about that hat, doesn't he…" in amused exasperation.
Borris grinned wider if he could as he removed the tip of his boney finger and watch the broom move on its own, "Why Little Lyra! I do believe that's very impressive!" He'd float back to give her more room to instruct the broom at her discretion.
Brising'r would raise a slight eyebrow before looking back to Glori, "The hat appears.. to have gone through a lot... I am not surprised..."
Lyra giggles as she has forgotten all about a story, "She continues concentration on it, as she tries to move it across the floor.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, successfully performs a supernatural presence of 9% on the environment.
Borris claps delightedly, encouraging the little pixie of her powers. "Lyra! Beautiful work! I bet you could take on any witch that came your way!
Glori gives a crooked grin. "Think he just likes t'crab about it myself," she says, her voice low and dulcet, adding, "…as it's easily replaced." She turns from watching Lyra's antics and studies the man. "An' how does the night find you, ser?"
Lyra moves about then gets a rather cheeky expression on her face as she tries to guide the broom to spin and dance with her.
Lyra focuses a new skill of Expressive Dance.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Expressive Dance, successfully performs a supernatural presence of 5% on the environment.
Brising'r would raise a slow eyebrow as he watched, his voice getting low, "I bet Borris is just happy he would't have to sweep..." He would look to Glori, "I am doing... well..."
Borris hums a tune for the broom to dance to. HIs finger moves through the air in tune with the hum.
Glori would give Brising'r an inquisitive look. "You sound like you're not sure," she says, the barest of smiles gracing her lips.
Lyra giggles and now, perhaps overconfidently tries a little flip in the air to get the broom to the same thing.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Expressive Dance, misses in performing a supernatural presence on the environment.
Brising'r would slowly nod, "It depends on what goes on tonight. I have a meeting with Willow." He would look back to watch the show.
Lyra twisted wrong in her flip causing the broom to just fall to the floor
Glori: "An' who is Willow?" Glori would ask, gently teasing. "A lady friend? I bet she's pretty." Her eyes dart up as the broom falls, the sound of it hitting the floor alerting her."
Borris floated right over and picked up the broom. "No worries Miss Lyra. I'm sure you can try again. Or ... " Borris held up a finger, "perhaps you would prefer to have some ice cream after all of your hard work?"
Lyra was frowning, looking down at the broom, "I ruined it!" She perks up at the mention of ice cream and nods excitedly, "Oh yes! Please Borris!"
Brising'r would watch the broom fall, looking to Lyra before looking back to Glori, "The owner of Underhill. She sent me a messenger yesterday..."
Borris floats away with the broom, his voice kind and soft, "No dear ... never ruin. You'll just try again after you've had some ice cream." He'd go fetch her the ice cream and bring it back to the table setting it down for her. "There you go my dear. Enjoy."
Glori tilts her head. ""Oh, Winter! oh, of course, aye…." Her face falls a bit as she studies the man. She would then nod her head, her face turning serious. "Aye…" she'd say again, "…of course. I hope that goes well for ye."
Brising'r would raise a slight eyebrow, "Do you know why she sent for me Glori?"
Lyra leads Borris with the bowl over to the table in front of her and plops down on the table, "Winter has lavender cookies!" -
Lyra meets Naia…
Glori: "Should think you'd know better than I, ser," Glori would say softly as Lyra careened up to the table. In a more normal voice she'd say to Lyra, "Now what have ye there, little one. Did Borris get you something good?"
Brising'r would slowly nod, "I have an idea..." his face a bit hard before looking away. His eyes glaze a bit, "Excuse... me..." and he falls silent. (OOB)
Lyra she looks down in utter bliss at the two scoops of the creamy sugary concoction, "Ice cream!" She picks up the little teaspoon, as she tries to eat the ice cream politely.
Lyra focuses a new skill of Table manners.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Table manners, misses in performing a physical presence on the environment.
Glori chuckles and dips a pinky finger into the bowl, just circling the edge of one of the scoops, and lifts it to her mouth. "Good ice cream it is too. Did you have fun sweepin, then?"
Lyra frowns and looks into her bowl as what she had just falls into her bowl, "Sweeping? That's what the housekeeper does! I was dan....." She tilts her head and calls to Borris, "You made me work!" Borris of course would be just highly amused, and would appear as such if he had facial muscles...
Lady Victoria D'Arcille carefully walked up the steps into the cafe to avoid tripping over her skirt. She stepped further in and saw a group seated against the wall. She smiled as she saw a familiar face. She curtsied, "Good afternoon, Miss Maertens...." she bowed her head to the others, "Good afternoon." She smiled warmly, "May I join you?"
Glori eyes dart up as Tori enters the cafe, and she nods to the woman, eyes dancing. "He's a tricky one, tha' Borris," she says to Lyra. "Ye have to watch him. But you looked pretty dancing with the broom, and tha' was well done! Lady Tori, have you met our Lyra? She's out havin' a grand adventure today."
Lyra leans over the bowl, trying once again to use the small tea spoon to take a bite of the ice cream, she was concentrating so hard that she didn't notice the one entering.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Table manners, successfully performs a physical assist on themselves.
Lady Victoria D'Arcille smiled and shook her head softly, "No...I have not had the pleasure." She bowed her head to the small fae. "A pleasure, miss." she bows her head to the gentleman, "Sir." before scooting by to take a seat next to Glori.
Glori: "Lyra, this is the Lady Tori. Lyra is in th' care of Mrs. Muircastle an' lives with them both."
Lady Victoria D'Arcille looks over the small fae with a pleasant smile as her eyes flash with fascination. She nods, "Oh that's lovely! I believe I met Mrs. Muircastle briefly last evening, if I'm not mistaken."
Lyra gives a satisfied smile as she tastes the ice cream. Her wings seem to flutter faster. She smiles and lifts her free hand to wave, "Hi!"
Lady Victoria D'Arcille giggles softly as she waves back to Lyra. She smiles pleasantly as she leans back in her chair. Her eyes weary as she stifles a silent yawn with her gloved hand. She then rubs her temples slightly and winces briefly before looking up with a bright smile, "So...I hope everyone is well and having a good day?" she asked with tired cheerfulness in an attempt to spark conversation. She nodded to the woman who entered, "Good evening." she said with a polite friendly smile.
Glori: "Tha is a lovely pin you're wearing, Miss," Glori says to Tori. "An' yes, Mrs. Muircastle was there - she has blonde hair, you might recall." Glori would give a small wave to Naia and Patch as they entered the cafe, and continues, "I'm sorry for the hasty exit last night Miss, an' I do hope to see you there again."
Naia enters the cafe and looks around. Seeing new faces she says warmly "Hello how is everyone?" she no sooner says the words when she spies the little fae with those tempting wings floating above the table. Eyes fixed on the petite creature she says softly “Toy”
Patch would give the gathering of women a small smile, quickly moving over to Borris and nodding ,"Oi Mister Borris, would you have a bottle of Fae to offer? we just ran out over at the FP," he’d chuckle while the ghoul took a moment to look him over before fetching the bottle.
Lyra goes back to her current excitement, and looks longingly at her ice cream, then turns and gives a little chirrup of a sound as she sees the Woman... and her bushy tail.
Naia hearing the chirp, her ears go straight up and forward. Body tense and her tail hardly moves. Quietly she approaches the fae, eyes fixed upon the creature.
Lady Victoria D'Arcille smiles warmly and instinctively places a hand to the brooch, "Thank you, Glori. You are very kind." her words slow and soft. She continued to speak in a huskier tone than normal. She cleared her throat and shook her head with a smile, "Oh no dear...it was quite alright. It seemed like quite important business and I was happy for the time spent." she said with a nod. She then turned to Naia, "I am very well, Madame. Thank you." she then fought the urge to yawn and continued, "My name is Tori." she said with a friendly smile. She then nodded her head to Patch who entered.
Patch exchanged coin for the bottle and gave a nod to Borris, "Thank ya Borris, You'll make a very pretty lady smile with this bottle... 'he’d grin.
Lyra eyes go wide and shakes her head franticly, "My ice cream!"
Naia eyes flick toward the woman called Tori, " " Come here my purrtty... I have ice cream " she adds in soft tempting tones... hand outstretched
Naia her attention back on Lyra " she says... “Name is Naia ...nice to meet you Tori “in a quick voice... for her attention is on Lyra
Glori turns to see the little fae hovering protectively over her bowl, staring at the neko, and her own eyes go wide. "Here, now, Miss -- we can get ye your own bowl if ye like, but stealing it from a defenseless creature just isn't done!" As Naia speaks however, the penny drops. "Oh nae….Lyra," she calls out warningly.
Lyra frowns and darts behind Glori.... her unwavering curiousity leading her to peek just over Glori's shoulder to see what Naia was doing.
Naia eyes upon the fae and never wavering she moves towards the table and reaches for the bowl, attempting to take it.
Naia focuses on their skill of Robotics, misses in performing a physical grapple on the environment.
Naia focusing on the fae she doesn’t pay any attention to where she is walking and bangs her shines into the table.. causing her to miss the bowl.
Lady Victoria D'Arcille winces slightly at all the clambering and high energy going back in forth. She leans back once more and leans back in her chair with a pleasant smile on her face. She shakes her head slightly with a soft chuckle, "oh dear..." she says quietly. Then at that moment she jerked forward placing a hand quickly to her back and inhaling sharply. She hung her head with eyes shut then lifted her gaze with the same calm smile as she tentatively rubbed the small of her back. She continued to watch the fae and neko interact.
Naia: "" Damn" she curses under her breath as she rubs her shins."
Naia eyes upon the prize she moves around the table hand outstretched.. “Come here my purrtty fae.... what is your name?” she asks in a sugary sweet voice “Let me get you some ice cream”
Glori smirks the tiniest little bit as Naia bumps into the table. She leans forward as if to bring the bowl closer to herself, and in doing so sees Tori. "Are ye all right, Miss?" she asks.
Brising'r would slowly shake his head... his eyes coming back to the green-red as before. He would look to Naia... then turns his gaze to Lyra.. before reaching to his chest and attempts to pull a bit of the vine out of his chest. Brising'r focuses on their skill of Conjuration, successfully performs a supernatural grapple on themselves.
Lyra contemplates for a moment then gets a wicked grin, she focuses on her magic, aiming it towards Naia and lifting her hand in an attempt to lift her off the ground, she whispers, "Get it!" To Glori
Lyra performs Tether of God on Naia.
Lady Victoria D'Arcille turns to Glori abruptly seemingly lost in thought, "Hmm?" Her eyes flash with recognition and she smiles and nods, "Yes...yes...dear. Nothing to worry about it. I took a slight tumble last night that's all." she smiles kindly and then returned her gaze Lyra then notices the man pulling some vine out of his chest. She blinks a few times then returns her gaze to Naia with her usual calm demeanor.
Glori bends forward quickly in an attempt to get the ice cream bowl.
Glori focuses on their practiced skill of Abjuration, successfully performs a physical presence of 8% on the environment.
Naia eyes narrow she was calculating the distance between herself and the fae and trying to decide if she should pounce. When she remembers she is wearing a dress and trying to behave more lady like. She is sure pounce on faes isnt lady like at all, She was going to resist temptation when the fae lifted her... that was all she need to forget all about being a lady. As soon as her feet touch the ground she is ready to pounce on the little fae. She attempts to spring over the patrons to grab the fae
Naia focuses on their expert skill of Animal Care, successfully performs a physical grapple on Lyra.
Naia she springs
Glori grabs the bowl successfully but suddenly has a mouthful of neko to contend with as she rights herself. "Mphfmmmpfl," she cries out as Naia's body barely clears her own.
Lyra squeeks as she's grabbed, she begins to wiggle and squirm, trying get free of her grasp, "Bad cat!"
Lyra focuses their skill of Wrestling.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Wrestling, misses in performing a physical presence on Naia.
Naia pleased with her success she purrs " No, good kitty. " and give the fae a big wet warm lick across the face
Brising'r would feel the vines wrap about his hand... his eyes looking down with a small smile. He looks up to Naia and blinks a few times. and watches as things happen with speed. He sits still... the viens flowing around his hand as if they were growing and moving on there own. He would hold up his hand toward Naia, "It has been a while for one of these Naia..." the vines flowing slower.
Naia not hearing anyone, all attention on her prize, she flings the fae into the air saying " Fly fly,,,, lets play..... go fly and I chase. " she finishes with glee
Lady Victoria D'Arcille gasps with wide eyes as she darts to her right over the arm of the bench. As she does she lets out a moderately loud groan of pain. She then slowly rights herself straightening her hat, "My word! What on earth do you think you're doing?" she spats. She then stands slowly with a hand on her back arched over slightly. She then shakes her head, "Forgive me...I didn't mean to be so cross. I'm just not feeling well." She then straightens up wincing she lets out a sigh, "Excuse me...I think I'm going to go see if I can find a doctor." She bows her head with a meek smile and slowly makes her way towards the door.
Astrid Muircastle (astrid.floresby) scrunches her nose feeling the rough tongue on her face, "Ew...." she murmurs.... then, as she flies up in the air unawares her wings start fluttering hard, she moves around to the neko's backside and eyes her tail... and just pets it.
Lyra scrunches her nose feeling the rough tongue on her face, "Ew...." she murmurs.... then, as she flies up in the air unawares her wings start fluttering hard, she moves around to the neko's backside and eyes her tail... and just pets it.
Glori wipe the cat hair out of her mouth. "Ach…" she groans. "We'll see ye soon, Miss," she calls out to Tori, "I'd help but we seem to have a few issues here t'deal with…." she stands, eyes on Lyra, beckoning her closer.
Brising'r would raise an eyebrow as the vines did not attract Naia as before... He would smile a bit before looking down to the vines.. He focuses upon it and attempts to change it into something mroe.. appealing.. like catnip.
Brising'r focuses on their skill of Conjuration, misses in performing a supernatural presence on the environment.
Naia eyes follow the little fae, as the fae lands near her tail and pet it she squeels in delight and turns in a tight circle chasing her own tail.
Lyra grins and flies straight up then moves over to Glori.
Naia spinning in circles she stops, panting when her eyes land on Brising'r. She approaches slowly for she is sure that while spinning she saw something move over him.
Glori 's eyes widen as Lyra pelts towards her, but she gamely tries to make her body a barrier between the fae and Naia. Gulping, she says, "All right then… let's calm down now shall we? Someone's goin' to put an eye out with all this fuss…"
Brising'r would feel the magic slide off the vines... his eyebrows raised before looking up to see Naia, "You want the vines..." His hannd held out the vines... before giving a small smile, "Have fun..." and tosses the vines toward the piano.. hoping that Naia will follow.
Brising'r focuses on their skill of Conjuration, successfully performs a physical presence of 6% on the environment.
Naia sees the vines fly towards the piano, Naia has forgotten all thoughts of being a lady and spring after the vines. " Come here you nasty snakes " she growls
Naia she attempts to attack the vines

Lyra smiles and plops down on the sofa taking the bowl to quite unladylike scoop as much ice cream into her petite mouth as she can.
Lyra performs Make Food on themself.
Naia mouth snapping she grabs them with her mouth and claws. Tearing the vines to bits.
Brising'r watches Naia before looking to Glori and Lyra, "All you need.. is vines... and she is sated..."
Glori edges her body closer in, in the hopes of breaking the sight line between Lyra and Naia. "Little one, we may want t'get you home," she whispers, and then glances up to Brising'r, smiling. "An' thank ye, ser, that was well done."
Lyra nods and sighs dramatically, "Fine...." She grins, a little guiltily, 'I didn't tell Astrid where I was going anyway."
Naia sitting on the floor , feeling very proud of hWith feline grace she approaches the group again. " That was fun, was it not ?"
Naia sitting on the ground feeling very proud with what she had done, she stands and dusts herself off.
Glori 's shoulders alump. "You didn't… oh dear," she says, gathering up the bowl of ice cream. "Dinae how we're going to explain this then, come on…" She starts to head to the door.
Naia with a big grin she ask " I didnt get you names., I am Naia . I remember you Brisignr but you two ?'
Lyra giggles and flits over eyeing the long curly locks for a moment, "I'm Lyra!" Then nods, following Glori to the door with a sulk.
Glori: "Gloriana, Miss," Glori says, stifling the giggle that rose unbidden at Lyra's reaction. "I've got the ice cream, now… no sad faces."
Naia waves to Lyra and Glori " Nice to meet you both
Lyra waves to Naia before following the prospect of more ice cream.
Glori waves. "An' you Miss. Good luck this eve," She adds, looking at Brising'r, and hurries out after Lyra.
Lyra frowns as she goes up to the door and tries to turn the knob quietly...
Lyra focuses a new skill of Stealth.
Lyra focuses on their skill of Stealth, gets a stellar success in performing a physical presence of 16% on the environment.
Glori watches her silently, raising a slender eyebrow at Lyra's apparently skill at sneaking in and out of things.
Lyra turns the knob with care, then as she opens the door all the way there is a loud, CREEEEEEAK sound from the hinges and she slumps her shoulder.
Glori sets the bowl gently down on the side table and, raising a finger to her lips, she moves to leave.
Lyra covers her mouth to hide the giggle, she waves to Glori as she leaves.
Glori wiggles her fingers back, a small grin on her face, and slips off into the dark night air. -

Wherein Lyra adds 3 buttons to her collection...[20:05] Lyra flits around the house, satisfied that Astrid and Bastion are not home, she makes her way upstairs, doing a little dance in the air as she makes her way to their bedroom. She sneaks in just in case they might just be hiding under their bed and tiptoes midair to their wardrobe. Giggling pulling on one of Bastion's vests, "Buttons!"
[20:14] Lyra giggles and looks inside the wardrobe at the different clothing to find pretty buttons.
[20:14] Lyra focuses their skill of Gathering.
[20:14] Lyra focuses on their skill of Gathering, successfully performs a physical discovery of 6% on the environment.
[20:23] Lyra twirls excitedly at all the different colors and sizes of buttons. She smiles as she tries to use enchant a very pretty red vest out of the wardrobe for her to work on.
[20:23] Lyra focuses their skill of Enchantment.
[20:23] Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, successfully performs a supernatural presence of 6% on the environment.
[20:28] Lyra wings flap excitedly as Sebastion's red vest flies out of the wardrobe, guiding it down to the floor to begin her work! She flits down and goes for it, dropping some of her dust on the vest to help her and pulls on the threads to break them and release her treasure.
[20:28] Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, gets a stellar success in performing a supernatural harm of 20% on the environment.
[20:33] Lyra giggles excitedly, flipping mid-air as the threads, with the help of her dust make the threads loosen. The button pops off and goes flying. She grins and moves to the next button, once again the irridescent dust dropping from her wings onto the stitching then guides the threads to pop.
[20:34] Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, successfully performs a supernatural harm of 7% on the environment.
[20:37] Lyra giggles as the threads break and the second button is free. She moves to the next one, repeating the step all over again, the dust falling onto the threads, and her guiding them to break.
[20:37] Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, misses in performing a supernatural harm on the environment.
[20:46] Lyra narrows her eyes at the stubborn buttons, she chitters something in faerie that would be the equivalent of insults to make a proper lady blush at the threads that wouldn't loosen. She drops more of her dust then tries once again to break the threads again
[20:47] Lyra focuses on their skill of Enchantment, successfully performs a supernatural harm of 8% on the environment.
[21:08] Lyra grins and flits excitedly, picking up her haul of 3 buttons and quickly zips downstairs to deposit them with her other treasures. -

Life with Lyra[22:56] Lyra perks up, once again distracted, this time from the barrage of questions. She moves over to him, and begins peeking in his pockets searching for the alleged strawberry candy
[22:57] Lyra focuses on their skill of Gathering, critically misses in performing a physical discovery on Dr. Sebastion Muircastle.
[22:57] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle winces, "Lyra that is my nipple do not search so deep"
[23:00] Lyra blinks quickly pulls her hand back, "Oops!" She blushes... "I felt a hard bump! I thought it was the candy!"
[23:02] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle shakes his head pointing to his other pocket, "nothing you have not already barged in an seen at home love."
[23:08] Lyra returns to the doctors pockets, determined to find candy this time.
[23:08] Lyra focuses on their skill of Gathering, misses in performing a physical discovery on Dr. Sebastion Muircastle.
[23:11] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle chuckles pulling his reflex hammer from his pocket and putting it in the first pocket giving her another chance. "did I hear you asking for stories?"
[23:12] Lyra nods and starts to slump... "Mr. Bull didn't tell a good one." She reaches into his pocket again searching
[23:13] Lyra focuses on their skill of Gathering, critically misses in performing a physical discovery on Dr. Sebastion Muircastle.
[23:17] Lyra blinks as she feels something else, something quite strange, "How many hammers do you carry?"
[23:17] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle eyes bug out as he carefully removes Lyra's hand, "Sweetheart the breast pocket, not the pants pocket!"
[23:20] Lyra furrows her brow, "You carry strange things!" she says as, like directed she searches the breast pocket
[23:20] Lyra focuses on their practiced skill of Gathering, successfully performs a physical discovery on Dr. Sebastion Muircastle.
[23:23] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle smiles as she finally locates the candy in question, "Well that took a lot of work, not that you need more sugar today."
[23:24] Lyra grins triumphantly as she pulls the strawberry candy out of the pocket! She twirls in the air in what could only be described as a victory dance. She giggles, "Now a story?"
[23:26] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle smiles, "I think I might be persuaded" Drawing upon the years as the favorite uncle he begins in a quiet, deep voice as Lyra enjoys her candy.
[23:28] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle: "Once upon a time there was a prince who wanted to marry a princess; but she would have to be a real princess. He traveled all over the world to find one, but nowhere could he get what he wanted. There were princesses enough, but it was difficult to find out whether they were real ones. There was always something about them that was not as it should be. So he came home again and was sad, for he would have liked very much to have a real princess."
[23:30] Lyra fiddles with the wrapper as she settles into the settee trying to free the sugary treat as she listened to the story
[23:30] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle His eyes grow big and he waves his hands raising his voice to sound a little scary "One evening a terrible storm came on; there was thunder and lightning, and the rain poured down in torrents. Suddenly a knocking was heard at the city gate, and the old king went to open it. "
[23:31] Lyra focuses on their practiced skill of Gathering, successfully performs a physical assist on themselves.
[23:31] Lyra eyes go wide as she listens to the story throwing the wrapper aside and licking the strawberry candy.
[23:32] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle It was a princess standing out there in front of the gate. But, good gracious! what a sight the rain and the wind had made her look. The water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down into the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels. And yet she said that she was a real princess." He places a finger to his chin as if considering a puzzle
[23:33] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle cackles making his voice sound like that of an old woman "Well, we'll soon find that out, thought the old queen. But she said nothing, went into the bed-room, took all the bedding off the bedstead, and laid a pea on the bottom; then she took twenty mattresses and laid them on the pea, and then twenty eider-down beds on top of the mattresses. "
[23:34] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle: "On this the princess had to lie all night. In the morning she was asked how she had slept."
[23:35] Lyra blinks as she licks the candy, though it is less frequent as she becomes absorbed in the story, "A Pea? Under all those?"
[23:36] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle speaks in a high pitched voice poking Lyra in the ribs with his pinky gently "Oh, very badly!" said she. "I have scarcely closed my eyes all night. Heaven only knows what was in the bed, but I was lying on something hard, so that I am black and blue all over my body. It's horrible!"
[23:36] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle he places a hand to his forehead dramatically
[23:38] Lyra giggles as he pokes her playfully, and does the voices. She licks her candy, "What haaaaappend?!"
[23:39] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle: "Now they knew that she was a real princess because she had felt the pea right through the twenty mattresses and the twenty eider-down beds."
[23:40] Lyra nods enthusiastically, "Did the Prince marry her? Or was she an evil witch in disguise? And if so, did she turn anyone to a frog?"
[23:40] Dr. Sebastion Muircastle chuckles, Nobody but a real princess could be as sensitive as that.So the prince took her for his wife, for now he knew that he had a real princess; and the pea was put in the museum, where it may still be seen, if no one has stolen it.
There, that is a true story.
[23:42] Lyra looks at him wide-eyed, and smiles, "I like that one!"
[23:42] Lyra: "Can I have a dragon?"
