*Hidden Nature* A Shapeshifting RP

[Garjzla]

Cicero grinned unabashedly as he stepped closer to Islanzadi. "Thank you, Princess. I'm glad you find them pleasing." He replied softly. He then noted that he felt funny. Almost like something was stuck in his throat. He tried swallowing, but to no avail. So he tried clearing it. But instead of the usual corse sound came out instead. I soft twirl sounded. He gasped as he looked to Islanzadi with wide-eyed fear, before running away a short distance.

(So, what is a twirl exactly? It is a noise, but what does it sound like, what does it mean, and is it only a fairy thing? I'm curious.)

Islanzadi looked confused at the noise Cicero had made, and was rather alarmed by him running away. She quickly scanned the area around her, and nothing was there. At least, nothing she could see. And she had really great eyesight.
Islanzadi calmly jogged after him, with a concerned expression settling on her face.
"Cicero? What's wrong?" She asked Cicero uncertainly.

Lexi took a bite and closed her eyes in enjoyment. Such flavors were remarkable to her. "Oh, this is living. " She whispered softly, as she went to sample some more.
~~~
Falkirk looked to the waterfall in complete and udder shock. It had never glowed like that in the live history of Anstrophia. "You voice is pure magic, my love. Such a phenomenon this is." He replied honestly.
~~~
"You are entirely welcome, Sorcha." Maxton stated simply. They were mostly quite as they walked to the dinning hall.
~~~
"It was my pleasure, Ember. It got me out to see more of the city." Sandor replied, as he glanced to Rana. When she reached out her hand for the iron. He handed it over carefully. Her words weren't lost on him. He fixed his eyes upon her and smiled as she turned back. He smiled softly and said to her, "I do hope so." as the elevator doors shut.
~
Bob looked around at the alphas penthouse and whistled. He then looked to all the new people he didn’t know. He got a bit shy about that.

Zypher stood to greet them. "Welcome back Ember." He said, then looked to Cadeon as the came through the door.

Ian smiled when she liked the food then started talking to Shane about the pups and who was going on rotation to be able to visit them next.
~~~
Star flushed and watched the colors fading away back to normal. "I think the waterfall has missed having people sing to it." She said softly then stood and smiled at him before moving closer to start another song, this time watching the water as she did.
~~~
Sorcha looked around then to a servant, asking them to bring something for the small group to eat to break their fast when they arrived, then going to a smaller table so they could sit and face each other together.
~~~
Rana soon followed Cadeon in and glanced around at the people there, some she hadn't met yet, others she had seen but not officially met.

Ember smiled and hugged Anna then looked to Bob and gave him a little cover so he could get his confidence back before looking to the fae curiously "We did find some iron, will it hurt to bring it in, or should we leave it outside of this room?" She asked curiously.

Angela looked to Bob and smiled, shifting both to make room and to let the baby know he wasn't the only small bird in this room. Besides, she didn't have anything to add to the discussions, just what stories she knew.

"Cicero? What's wrong?" She asked Cicero uncertainly.

( It sounds similar to a twirl a cat makes when it see something interesting. It means a soul bond to him and that escalates to madness if they aren't with eachother. It's only a fey thing. So Islanzadi doesn't have to have any effects from it. *Fun fact: in Anstopfia, Sylphs are obligated to kill themselves if they even think of twirling to royalty. Poor Cicero. )

Cicero was whisperer in fey as he knelt and got his dagger. He had to make it right, before it was too late.

(Ah, okay. Now I understand.)

Islanzadi stared at what Cicero was doing...What was he doing?
Though she soon realized what was going on. While she didn't know of the Fey customs, she could tell that Cicero was going to harm himself. Obviously not wanting this to happen, she grabbed his hand, the one holding the dagger, in an attempt to not allow Cicero to do anything with it.
"Cicero, stop. Why are you acting like this?" Islanzadi asked in a very stern tone, staring at him.

(Hope that's not power playing...Trying to make Cicero not kill himself. I'm not sure.)

Lexi glanced to the two as they talked. It helped to ease her more. She didn't feel so front stage that way. She focused on the new foods and drink.
~~~
Falkirk stood and smiled as the colors came back to life. He added his voice to the song, since he happened to know it and the colors intensified. He stepped a little closer to see if proximity had an effect.
~~~
Maxton held out the chair for Sorcha and then took his own. He looked to Sorcha and said conversationally, "King Racine seems much improved. I hope it's not an act."

Jackdaw sat next to Bardou and spoke of old times while they waited.
~~~
(I have no fey in that room only Jaeger. Xatia left, so Kellan will have to answer. They have to touch the iron to get burned and poisoned. )
Zypher looked to the newcomer.

Cadeon said in introduction, "This is Ember's long time friend, Rana. Some may know her already."

Zypher held out his hand in greeting and stated, "Any friend of Ember, is a trusted friend to us. Please come in and allow me to introduce you to the others. "

Bob gasped at the unexpected sight of the dove. "Me play, me play?!" He said eagerly to Ember. Forgetting his fear at the prospect of a new friend.

"I'm just pondered the way to out future. It is a new father's duty to worry about such things." Reaper replied softly, as he too watched the latest wyrmling come into the world.

Slygotha turned her one eye glance at the hatching wyrmling, her snout pointed at Reaper.
" Do you have something in mind? Very few humans thus far have even come into the swamp, let alone other sentient beings. Occasionally I hear tribal drums and whatnot, but I believe the natives don't come here at all due to ancient customs. The Worm of Slygoth and all that, you know. It's unholy ground, to them. So, these advanced humans, do they come this far?" Slygotha squeezed his tail back with her own.
The fifth egg started to hatch, as the timid fourth hatchling slowly poked it's way out of the egg. It turned with mild interest at its hatching sibling before looking around at its surroundings. Startled, it started vocalising, even as the fifth egg started to crack!

(Hope that's not power playing...Trying to make Cicero not kill himself. I'm not sure.)

( That's not power playing. )
Cicero looked to Islanzadi's hand quietly, before he raised his eyes to meet her own. "I'm doing my sworn duty. I'm honor killing myself. I should not have twirled to you princess Islanzadi." He replied honestly.

Islanzadi had no idea what twirling was, but decided that now wasn't really a time to be asking questions.
"Well, maybe you shouldn't have...Twirled to me, but that doesn't mean you have to kill yourself. Don't take your own life, just because you did something that didn't hurt anybody." Islanzadi told him quickly, trying to think of anything else to say to him that could convince him to not kill himself. She wasn't really used to being in this position all that much.

"Princess Xatia ordered you to stay with me and my people. And I do not think that means kill yourself because you made a simple mistake."

Bob gasped at the unexpected sight of the dove. "Me play, me play?!" He said eagerly to Ember. Forgetting his fear at the prospect of a new friend.

Shane glanced to her, glad she was relaxing and seemingly enjoying the food as they ate. When they were done, Ian took the dishes to start washing them up.
~~~
Star came to take his hand as they sang to the waterfall, shutting her eyes and stopping when the light intensified too much. She could tell something was off before she blinked and looked around, finding herself in a very different place than they had been in. "What happened?"
~~~
"No, it's not an act' Sorcha said then flushed a little and looked at her hands. She probably shouldn't have said that about him, but she felt like she knew him so well just from seeing his memories

Bardou talked with Jackdaw, raising a curious eyebrow at Sorcha's flush. "I don't remember her doing that before we left." He said privately
~~~
"We have to physically touch it, then it will harm us" Kellan replied, taking a step back from them anyway. He did not want to get iron sick here and now.

Ember chuckled and knelt to let Bob go at Angela's nod. "Go on and play in the bedroom or the dining room while we talk" She said gently.

Angela flew over to land on the floor and looked to Bob then walked closer, head bobbing like any dove's would "I am Angela" She said, introducing herself to Bob.

Rana reached her hand over to shake with Zypher. "I've seen you around before on my flights." She said with a smile then set the bag down "We got a bunch of iron stuff from Ember's home to use in this battle."

She was right. He was being foolish and over thinking things. Slygotha was always there to settle him from his own troubled mind. " They haven't thus far. You are right as always. The hatching has put me in a defense mindset. I'm being irrational." Reaper replied lovingly as he looked to the newest arrivals.
