Lilith Etoile (played anonymously)

((Fail title is fail))

Lucard sauntered through the forest, no real destination in mind. For now, he was away from humans. The beings that had treated him so viciously only earlier that day were easily now the ones he wanted to avoid. His attention was actually on the bird that had landed on his shoulder. Animals seemed to like him, despite his very dangerous appearance. He had his wings unfurled, hanging loosely from his body as he just walked along through the forest.

It was such a peaceful place. He rather enjoyed it.

Cerri was perched on a large flat rock, at the edge of a good sized pool of water. One end the pool was fed by a miniature water fall, a stream at the other side took water through the rest of the forest. The water fall was no taller than a man, and wasn't rushing by any means, it was more of a steady trickle.

Being in the forest well away from humans, She felt no need to cloak her form with her human guise. A pair of orange and black monarch butterfly wings sprouted from her back, her pale skin almost shimmered faintly as light hit it. Her skirt was drawn up to her knees as she dangled her feet into the cool waters. Smiling softly to herself she closed her eyes listening to the naturally rhythmic sounds the waterfall made. If someone was paying close enough attention they'd swear the fern to her right seemed to be leaning towards her.

Lucard came upon a clearing, quite by accident, and the bird at his shoulder took flight to land on Cerri's knee and chirp at her. The large being simply watched for a few moments, perhaps not quite willing to come out of the shadow of the trees with the risk that he may spook the beautiful winged creature on the rocks. He watched her for now, noticing how she was rather similar to humans, yet different. Those wings were most obvious, but her skin shimmered in the sunlight. It was beautiful.

Lucard hunkered down, crouching and letting himself stay in the shadows, his wings curling a little and just touching the ground as he watched. He found it ironic, the incredible distance between their species. She was on one end of the 'spectrum', and he was on the complete other. And yet they were in the very same place.

Cerri perked a brow to the little bird that had perched itself upon her knee and began chattering to her. Then very rare thing happened, for a brief moment she wished she were full fae. Being only half fae, she couldn't understand what the little creature was saying to her.

"Unfortunately little friend I can't understand you." She giggled a little as the bird continued to chirp at her. "But company is good I suppose, as long as you don't tell them I'm here." she grinned holding a out a finger towards the bird letting it hop to her finger.

Cerri chose a forest to find some quiet, for most humans would remain their cities. And most of the fae stayed with their own realm, a few of the small folk lived in the realm of the mortals, but the Fae rarely stayed long in the mortal world. A perfect place for her to hide a while.

The little bird soon flew off leaving her sitting by the pool alone again. She sighed softly and lifted her feet from the water she shifted the way she was sitting. Her back no longer to him, but she wasn't looking towards him. "Hmmm....what shall I do now...?" she murmurs softly as little dark spots of water formed around her feet, from the water dripping off them. "Where did I put my boots." she says beginning to look around, her eyes were differently coloured.

Lucard watched with intense interest as the pretty female behaved around the bird. As she mentioned her boots, his ears perked. He had seen them nearby, on the other side of the water from where she was. He debated for a moment, then finally unfurled his wings, taking flight from the shadows to snatch up her boots and land nearby, clawed feet gripping and scratching the rocks to get a hold of them so he would be able to extend his hands, and the boots cradled carefully in them.

"Here. I apologize, I saw you from the trees and did not want to disturb you."
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Cerri had just giving up the search around her for her boots, and gotten to her feet when the winged man landed on the rocks near her. She blinked a moment taking in his appearance, she tilted her head a moment, and offered a smile. "Thank you." she had met demons before, so she wasn't instantly afraid, merely cautious. She extended her hand and took her boots.

She didn't bother putting them on just you, "So instead you watched me?" she would giggle a little bit, unfortunately one of the fae qualities she did inherit was there bubbly giggle, and she often laughed at the most inappropriate times. Her voice did hold a slightly joking tone when she had said that.

Lucard was pleased to see she at least did not flee from the very sight of him. "You are quite welcome. And yes. But in my defense, I've not seen a being like you in a long time." His wings were still out, helping the large beast balance on the rock. "Do you live here?" he asked curiously, before realizing something that, to him, was quite distressing. "Ah, pardon my manners. My name is Lucard. It's a pleasure to meet you."

A demon-like creature with manners? Well, Lucard wasn't quite a demon after all. He wasn't really sure what he was, actually. He'd been that way ever since he could remember. Lucard was often-times more polite than scary, though. Something that was different about him.

Cerri waited for a response with her boots still in her hand. Her differently coloured gaze intently upon him, one of here eyes was a deep clear blue, the other very bright green. She grinned a bit to his response, "One like me? You mean a Fae?" she perked a brow still grinning lightly, "Well truthfully they don't stray away from their realm too much..." if he was actively listening he'd notice that cerri had said they, not we, it was a subconscious thing but she didn't like lumping herself in with the fae.

To his question she shook her head, "Unfortunately no, as peaceful as it is." her eyes drifted to the little pool, and waterfall. Her eyes drifted back to him, as she hear him introduce himself. "Well Lucard." she slightly bowed her form, "My name is Cerridwen. And It's nice to meet you as well." She straightened and smiled.

"So you like to wander the quiet paths of the forest as well?"

Lucard was always paying attention. He noticed the subtle difference, but made no mention of it for the time being. "I see. I suppose that is why I haven't seen many of them." He nodded a tad in understanding when his question was answered. "A shame. But it is a pleasure to meet you, Cerridwen. And yes, quiet paths are prefferable to noisy ones." He shifted slightly on the rock, hunkering down as his claws scraped a bit against the rock.

"Do you live with the other Fae in their realm, then?"
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Cerri would shrug her shoulders, "Well that's likely true..." she would decide to walk away from the pool a bit and flopped down on the grass, but instead of plummeting to her arse her wings fluttered behind her and her landing was softened. She set her boots down in the grass beside her.

She smiles to his response to her question, "mmmh, Yes and the quieter paths hold little places like these." she smiles a bit, and then sat cross legged. Her elbows rested on her legs and her fingertips trailed through the grass, which seemed to follow her fingers like it was bending into her hands. Like a cat would lean into a petting.

As he brought up the fae, her finger tips paused, and turned her gaze to him, "For the time being..." she says, "I used to live in this realm...no where around here though." she says watching him she smiled, "And what of you Lucard?"
Lilith Etoile (played anonymously) Topic Starter

Lucard watched her, lifting off of the rock himself, wings giving one strong flap to bring him over beside her, though keeping a bit of distance between them still. "I see. I understand." When the question was brought up about him, he paused and lifted a 'hand', claw scritching at the back of his neck. "Ah...well, I live here. Not here specifically, but in this realm. I've never been to another realm before. This is what I've known all my life, so I suppose it is the realm I was meant for."

He wasn't quite sure about it, since he was rather discriminated upon, but he felt that everyone had their hardships, and this was just his.
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Cerri was still watching him intently. She didn't stir when he flew and settled beside her, she had figured that the grass would be easier to sit on for the both of them. She smiled softly to his response, "Lucky you." was her reply, evidently she wasn't exactly a fan of the fae realm. "I would have loved to remain in this realm...but evidently fate has something else in store for me." she shrugged softly.

Cerri had always felt more a home in this realm, mostly because in this realm she could hide her fae form if she chose to do so. However in the realm of the Fae hiding her split heritage was impossible, and she encountered quite a bit of discrimination due to it.

Lucard listened to her speak. "Is that why you are here? You come as often as you can, since you do not live here?" He shifted in his seat slightly, wings unfurling for a moment to stretch, then settling once more against his back. "What is it like in the fae world that makes it so terrible?" he asked. "And yes. Fate often plans things for us that we do not like."

He turned his gaze to the water, large claws scratching at an itch on his arm. The two were such a stark contrast, sitting beside each other.
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Cerri nodded to him, she drew her knees up to her chest and rested her chin on them. "Yes to both of those." she smiled to him, "I prefer it here." she shrugged softly. She perked a brow to the question that came next.

"Well...I'm not sure how much you know about them...but they can be particularly cruel...not that they go out of their way to be. They just are." she sighed softly, "As for what it is like...well that depends on where you are. I serve in the Summer Court, as one of Tatiana's maidens."" Shed shrugged softly. In regards to his comment of Fate well she was more than inclined to agree.

Her own brightly patterned wings stretched and fluttered a moment. Then her form began to waver a moment as she began drawing on Fae Glamour. Then Her wings disappeared, the shimmer to her skin seemed to recede, leaving her flesh human like. Lastly her features softened, becoming human like losing the slightly feral edge that the fae had. The only hinting of her true form was her eyes, well specifically the green one. It held the otherworldly shimmer that her skin had only moments ago.

Lucard listened to her, nodding slightly in understanding. "I understand." He wasn't sure who she was talking about, but it made sense in a way. When she became human, he watched her. A soft chuckle was given afterwards. "That is a rather interesting trick. I wish I possessed an ability like that." He wiggled his clawed fingers in front of him. "Unfortunately, I'm stuck to scaring children who do not behave."

He moved around a little bit once more, huffing softly. It was hard to get comfortable in such a bulky form. "Do you always stay in the forest? Or do you venture into towns, since you are able to look like one of them?"
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Cerri didn't exactly feel like elaborating much at the moment. As his chuckle sounded she offered a smile, "Well yes it is..very handy. Some though can see through the glamour...mostly it's been children, or those with a very strong connection to nature..." her smile broadened to a wide grin when he said scaring children. "Well you might appear that way...but you certainly don't converse like something scary." She shrugged softly.

As she rested her chin on her knees she watched him shift around, he seemed to be uncomfortable, but she didn't want to comment on it. To his question she smiled a bit, "Well it depends on my mood. Towns can be nice...but quite often I take paths less traveled."

Lucard listened to her and nodded slightly. "Children are rather in touch with such things." he said. As she mentioned how he conversed, he chuckled a little and scratched at his head with a single claw. "Yes, this is true. When I was younger, I would hide in the rafters of a large, ornate church. I often heard the priest speaking and conversing with various men, and for a time I also lived in the attic of a library. I could listen in on the scholars, and I suppose their speaking habits affected me."

He shrugged his large shoulders. "I may appear like a beast, but I am not what one would describe as 'evil'."
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Cerri slightly tilted her head as she listened to him speak, by the time he was finished her head was laying on her knees, her face turned towards him. "Of course." she said simply to his comment about evil, and appearances.

"If you interact more of the fae you notice that...usually more often than not, the more beautiful a fae is...the more evil they can be..." she sighed softly, sounding as if this were either applied to her or she had experienced this.

Eventually she shrugged again and smiled, "I guess appearances can be deceiving."

Lucard chuckled softly and looked at her. "Does that mean you are evil then, Cerridwen?" He smiled though and gave a nod of understanding. "Indeed." He stood up then, stretching out, wings unfurling and arms reaching towards the sky. He sighed contently for a moment and his body gave a shudder, shaking loose his muscles. "Shall we do something, Cerridwen? I am quite open to suggestions, but the day would go to waste if we simply sat here and did nothing at all." He chuckled and smiled at her.
Cerridwen Bast (played by Pineapple)

Flinched a bit to what he said, she knew that he was meaning it as a joke, but it slightly touched a nerve, "Some have told me as much." was all she said to this. As he got to his feet and stretched she would grab her boots and start pulling them on.

"Well I'm not sure. It all depends on what you like." she says as she got to her feet, and began brushing her skirt off. "I suppose there's a few things we could do...the obvious I guess would be walking...or going for a flight...but I think the flight would attract unwanted attention." She wasn't necessarily referring to him attracting attention either. "So we could walk about the woods....or we could wander into the nearest town...." she let a little shrug loose, "I think you can choose."
