"An exchange?" Lou echoed. She didn't have to think too long on it, deciding that Arbok was the sort who liked to be fair. Or rather, couldn't be indebted to someone. Was that a Nordenfiir thing? She hummed to herself, looking up at the leaves. "Maybe not something for luck? Maybe for something...

Lout chuckled. “I guess sometimes magic seems like it is.” She agreed. “When things get hard to explain, why not just blame it on magic?” She wondered how many things she had been told that was truly because of magic, and how many things that weren’t from magic but explained otherwise. She shook...

“Really?” Lou beamed, leaning in closer to Arbok. She was glad he liked it, that was most important of all. She was also glad that others liked it. “I can make more. Though, well, it takes a lot of time.” She admitted, sheepish and with a shrug. “You see, I have to collect eight four leaf...

Brown brows shot up, hidden by hair that needed to be cut again. Alouette had expected a rebuke, much like Syr Isander had just done. She regarded Syr Josai and her offering much like a wounded animal shied from a human that was unhindered. Her eyes darted back to Nacht, looking for help but he...

“I cannot kill another!” It was so sudden it even surprised Alouette herself. She felt the tremble in her muscles, the way her stomach fell to the floor, perspiration on her upper lip. She was shaking as she said this, resolve only able to steel her face, to turn her ironclad where it mattered...

Her eyes widened. Did austerity mean grounded and rugged, simple and straightforward? She nodded as if she knew precisely what Nacht was saying. She'd leave the big words to him and Ulrika. They were the readers, and it only made sense to Lou that readers would be able to take many words and...

Rosy-cheeked, Lou turned her gaze elsewhere. Arbok's earnest face and honest words evoked a strange feeling within Alouette. While she felt pleased by the praise, a mouth opened in her mind to tell her how it was undeserved. "You think I'm nice? And interesting?" Lou asked as if a person...

"I do know." She nodded, delighted to share the glory and whimsy of it all with someone like-minded. Her enjoyment was twice as great as it would have been if she had come by herself. The warmth was pleasant, a lingering brush of contentment. The sun melted her hesitation, and she gestured for...

Luckily, where Lou was short, Nacht was tall. Their hands were parallel, with Nacht's much higher above Lou's small stained hands. Once the squires wrapped their hands around the fragile-looking Druid Umbrella's stem, their hands would stick to the soft fuzz. Their palms would be able to...

“Umm, I think… you’re supposed to ask someone truth or dare next….” Haelyn

“If you could be any animal at all, what would you be?” The question was quick and easy and it was hard to say if it had come so quickly to Lou because it was the first thing that came to her or if it had been something that she had wondered about for a long time. “That’s not… what I would’ve...

When she turned her head, she smiled wide. Roki's face looked much younger than it was. The delight she found in his gold eyes brought her back to her childhood. She let go of Roki's hand and the nostalgia with it. "Beautiful, right? If forever did exist, I guess... I wouldn't mind this." Roki

"Austerity?" Lou echoed, eyebrows furrowing. "What does that mean?" It sounded like a word that Lumina or Ulrika would know. She looked back at the Sworn, trying to decipher why Syr Isander had a certain austerity but not Syr Josai. "Oh!" She said, eyes alight with an answer. "You mean that Syr...

Alouette pulled her collar out from under her chin, suddenly feeling the summer's heat suffocate her even as the sun was setting. "It's not that I can talk to ducks." She was no druid. Wild as she was, there were language barriers she could not overcome. "But I watch them. You watch anything...

She pressed a small hand to her stomach, wondering if it was still there or had disappeared with Gruki's question. Her first crush? What constituted a crush? Technically, when she was four, she had a crush on her cousin Soliesse, but that was because she was ten years her senior and never paid...
