@Spec I keep forgetting your timezone and I was really confused xD If I remember correctly, you're... 13 hours ahead. Maybe. It's 4:00pm for me right now.
@Spec, ah so you'd be 14 ahead. I'll try to remember that :P I dunno why but I just like knowing what time it is where everyone else is, sometimes it just helps me know when to post chats and stuff. But lemme tell you the weather is the craziest thing where I am. Can you please decide if it's hot/cold/raining/sunny Ohio??
@Spec you live near Melbourne? On our english state test, there are at least three different versions you can get each time (so you can't cheat) and I got an article talking about a tree-emailing system in Melbourne and how it helped the community :0 And then I wrote an essay on ecotourism. Ah, state testing. It gets earlier every year I swear next year I'll have to take it after winter break or something
@Ash: I don't think it's necessary, but you can if you want to. I just called Coldfire a species to make him sound a little more proper, since he's the prince of a kingdom and his kind should probably have a name. XD
@Spec that random kid I talk about occasionally, Connor, found the article during history class and tried finding the email system xD My classmates are really, rrrreally ridiculous :P
Agh I got the front legs but the back are so awkward-looking because of the positioning on the screen x'D I'm still just thinking how weird switching to that XL is gonna be. Buuuuuut I like having screen protectors so until I can get my dad to go to the store, tiny little thing it is!
Well,,, if she's not here,,,, we can make, like, side scenarios with different characters?? I kinda feel like writing for a rebellious character so i'll slap my Zeraxi in :0 but I'm too lazy to find a reason why she'd be in Sylyore, but I'm also going to keep some of her memories intact xD And if you want I can throw Ribbonjay in with her :P
She was eating black berries from her "Storage". But, a pack of Hijus were near by, she heard them. Splash didn't know what to do. She randomly shifted into a cow. The Hijus have spotted her and got suspicious. "I never see those anymore." One said, the other said "I don't think that thing is supposed to be here, maybe-" "It's still meat isn't it? Lets get it!"
(I might have Aylin and Haruka slightly ditch night and day to explore xD)
Still wide awake, the small Moondragon pranced around in the grass, bounding around Haruka. Sighing, he watched her with one lazily-opened eye. "Explore!" She cried, purple markings shining. Her cries turned into a sort of chant, and the Ribbonwing gave up. Not wanting to disappoint her, he stood and stretched his wings, however much he wanted to smack her with a flower petal to let him sleep. He turned his head to Day. "Do you need to escort us somewhere? Give us any advice for places to go?" His voice croaked slightly and he cleared it with a low growl. Aylin leaped onto his back excitedly.
(Oh no no no Rose is a girl and I'm not doing anything with her. I'm bringing out Nuro. A waterfury who is supposed to protect Splash forever. He a boy.. Star is gonna be ubset
"And besides, it's the males who are dangerous! It's a female!" The Hijus ran and aimed for her neck, Splash tried to back away, but she was too slow. As she lost hope, a bull, big and fierce stood infront of her, and headbutted them. The Hijus fell over, and looked at the bull, kicking and scraping his hoof against the dirt, they ran away growling.
The animal turned back to Splash to see her in her normal waterfury form, looking at it in awe. "W-wow.. I never really saw a real one before!" "What are you talking about princess? +Shifts back" "+Gasps+ Y-y-y.. Your a... A water fury??" "Yep, make that water fury- gaurd for you. You looked like you were in trouble." "M-me?! Why me?" Nuro sighed. He looked at her in the eyes slightly blushing. "Before your parents passed, they requested something of me... Splash was confused.
"They wanted me to look after you- forever." Splash jumped back a bit. "Why didn't they tell me this?! State your name.." Nuro bowed to her, and spreaded his water wings backwards. "I am Nuro. Nuro Vante. And I am here to protect you, Princess Splash." Splash crossed her arms and blushed a bit as well. She turned her head to the side. "Mmmf.." Nuro got up and they both sat down.
"So.. My parents sent you.. Huh?" He nodded. "So.. Why weren't you here earlier.. When the palace fell down? The only ones to find me were Day and Star.. They are my friends.." "Well I thought you'd be on the island when everyone was evacuating the palace. I searched everywere for you." She looked at him again, but then turned back and smiled a bit uncontroably. She tried not to smile, but she only blushed when she tried not to.
Nuro acted kind of the same. Execpt he blushed alot more. "S-so. Who is Star?" "Oh. Uh. He is my friend. His real name is StarStruck and he is a StarFury. We can go see him." "Ok, who is Day?" "Day is a SunFury. She is really nice, but I don't know were she is.." Nuro flicked his ear.
( @spec we can do something if you want. Like i said earlier, i wanna do a rude character for some reason today xP so i'd just be using #sterlingravenzeraxi and #ribbonjayoc if you're interested)
A blue jay flew overhead, occasionally flapping speckled wings to keep pace with the canine-like creature trotting below him. A bright green tail soared behind the crow-like body, taller than other jays. The bird kept a dark purple eye on the creature and a dark blue on the trees ahead, so as to not crash. Dodging some branches, he hummed quietly to himself. The creature below belonged to a certain species known as the Zeraxi, and this one was by the name of Raven. She trotted quickly, teal eyes searching for an exit from the realm she found herself in. Raven was about to call to the blue jay; to have him stay closer or perch on her antler-like horns; but he stopped his singing and cried out when he saw the large dragon flying in the air above. Raven froze for a second, unsure whether to run or hide.
Raven still stood, stunned. The new realm seemed to have erased her instincts- back home, she would either be running away on an impossible trail, or had already leaped into the air, ready to fight. The bluejay circled around her head, screeching in her long ears. It landed on one of her horns and gave up plain noises. "RAVEN!" He cried, and the Zeraxi snapped back into focus. As the dragon came closer, she crouched down, teeth bared and claws out, ready to defend herself. Her dark blue fur flowed in the wind and she lashed three tails along the ground, and the bird spread out his spotted wings as if he really dared to take on the dragon alone.
@Ash: Alright. I'm curious to see how Coldfire will react to Gira's injured eye, but the interaction might take too long and Day would probably be back by then.)
The Zeraxi loosened slightly, still glaring at her. In her land she tought herself never to trust anybody, not even if they raised you... The bluejay lowered his wings. He trusted too easily. Raven hissed under her breath. "Rib.. How do we know she won't turn on us and fight us anyways?" Her voice cracked slightly, tired. "Call down, Raven. Lighten up a bit," the bird replied calmly. Still glaring, she straightened herself, to try and look more powerful. "What do you want with us, dragon?" Raven barked, keeping her tufted ears facing forward. The jay gave a small sigh.
After departing from the mysterious dragon Skylate, Coldfire continued to fly about Sylyore aimlessly, not sure where to go or what to do. It had been a few days since he had departed from Giranja, and he was finally learning how to keep his mind off of her. He quietly scanned the ground below, looking for prey to eat.
The canine tensed again, her sharp claws extended all the way and teeth ready to bite down on anything, even a dragon's scales. Before snarling back an answer to the dragon, she quickly hissed an "I told you!" to the bird. "Exactly what we look like, a canine and a bird!" Raven barked loudly. Her mind was still fuzzy and it was hard to focus directly on the dragon, but she had been in this state before. /Too many times have I done this,/ she thought. /But the only prize feather from this fight will most likely be one from Rib, and I can't risk that./ She took a determined step forward, and to her anger the bird chirped, "Look ma'am, we don't wanna fight you," his voice was small and raspy, like he longed to have one voice but was stuck with another.
( @Day do you remember the random rainforest rp and how raven took one of areli's feathers? HINT HINT WINK WINK)
Seeing a forest up ahead, Coldfire banked and landed at its borders, taking a step inside and inhaling the scents that wafted from it. However, his eyes snapped open and his body went rigid when he caught a familiar scent. "Is that...?"
For a moment, Coldfire stayed frozen to the spot. He longed to find her again, see whether she was alright after her strange shift into the red beast, yet he also wanted to run away, afraid his cursed luck would affect her again. However, when another breeze carried Giranja's scent an overwhelmed his senses, he found himself darted forward, eyes wide as he searched for te familiar dragoness.
(Whoop for convenience (and laziness) raven knows what lies sound like)
"Don't insult her!" The bird cried, spreading his wings out in defiance. Raven seemed frozen for a second, repeating the dragon's words in her mind. /"I don't want to fight you. I don't want to fight you,"/ the voice repeated. Something in Raven's mind sparked, and it kindled a flame inside her feet. "LIAR!" The Zeraxi howled, the word echoing against the trees. She lunged forward, knocking the jay into the air, and she launched herself at the dragon's head. Snarling, she dug her claws into the scales and hissed loudly in the dragon's ear. "'Don't mess with an outlaw from the mountains,'" she recited the well-spread saying with a deep, menacing tone that didn't seem to be able to come from the Zeraxi. (AM I ALLOWED TO DO THIS?? I NEED SUSPENSE IM SO SORRY) Howling again, she tried clawing at the dragon's eyes. The bird circled high above, cawing anxiously.
(Also sorry if some of what i say doesn't make much sense? I have all my characters' backgrounds in the back of my head but i never really get to explaining them much. Plus raven's sorta supposed to be a spooky mystery, outlaw, "menace to society" and all that. Ah poor little Raven. Not even her real name ;P)
Racing through the trees, Coldfire followed Giranja's scent intently, gasping from exertion. Finally, he burst out into a forest clearing and skidded to a stop when he spotted the figure in the middle. He stared at the dragoness in her human form before him, his expression as surprised as her own. "Giranja...."
Raven was flung to the ground, landing with a horrifying crunch. Her vision was blurry as the fuzz in her mind grew. Blood roared in her ears and all she knew was that the bird had been caught. For the split second she was down it seemed as if time had stopped. The fire grew, reaching to every part of her, and turned her eyes brighter. "MENACE!" She howled, and she felt as if she had grown wings. She launched herself again at the dragon, ramming her antlers into the dragon's jaw. Blood covered her eyes and she rolled along the ground, a few betraying sticks jabbing her in the side. Blood flowed down one leg and she lay motionless.
Splash had turned into a girrafe. Nuro took form as a brown Seagull, and hopped on her back. "I know all about this forest," She said looking at him. "I live here now." "Ah. It's pretty princess." Splash had a worried sigh. "Umm.. Nuro, please.. Don't call me princess.. I don't deserve to be called princess after what happened.." "Hey! That was Shadow's fault, and the snow fury's.+Licks+ But... Whatever you say..." Splash blushed again. "Please, call me Splash." "Ok, Splash :3"
Overwhelmed by emotion, Coldfire stepped forward slowly, mouth hanging open, then shifted suddenly into his human form. Without a thought, he raced forward and wrapped his arms around Giranja. He squeezed his eyes shut as he embraced her, not trusting his voice enough to speak yet.
Raven's ears rang, and after a while of laying still, the ringing softened into a song, one she had not heard in years. The sound of dripping water came from nowhere, and wove into the rhythm of the notes until it was one swirling song full of the howling of wind and starry wolves that would poke their paws down from the stars. She opened one of her eyes, her breathing ragged. Her ears were laid back and the rest of her body laid limp on the ground. The notes wove into her mind as an icy teal eye stared intently back at the dragon, and nothing else. The bluejay recovered slightly, flapping his wings and hiding amongst the nearby branches. Quietly, he made his way to a tree above the Zeraxi, and held his breath when he saw the large pool of blood. Raven's mouth moved slightly, but she made no noise.
(Welcome to: Raven has a mental breakdown. We thank you as always for your attendance to this show and hope you enjoy.)
Raven's eye followed the dragon's every movement. The bird cawed softly, unsure of what to do. /This is too confusing. Did I die? I think I died,/ he thought. He flew down towards Raven's head, staring intently at the dragon. "Did I die?" He asked Raven, not looking away. The Zeraxi still laid there. Something about this new realm had ruined her mind, or at least scrambled it. She sang softly, but her voice was too broken and quiet to make out the words.
Coldfire embraced Giranja tighter when she returned his hug, faintly noticing with joy that she was still wearing the jacket he had lent her. "I'm sorry," he finally whispered. "I'm so sorry for leaving you. I should never have abandoned you when you were in such a state." He released the embrace and met Giranja's gaze, but he found that there was only one eye to look at, as the other was bandaged tightly. His expression going blank, Coldfire slowly brought a hand up to the side of her head. "Giranja.... Who did this to you?"
The bluejay paced in place, flustered. "The-the wounds y-you inflicted, y-y-you.... Monster!!" He stuttered, nervous. Raven's white paw twitched slightly at the touch of the dragon's tounge.
(Sorry im playing animal crossing with @nappez xP)
With an annoyed sigh, he flew after the dragon. Raven stopped singing softly, and the song quieted. Her mind grew fuzzy again and she mumbled to herself. Her eye was half-closed by now and it followed the dragon's movements slower. "Don... et... the.....utlaw...ge....you..." She said quietly. She repeated it, only bits of words sounding. "On't...le...........out.....et........." The words broke apart more with each repeat.
Coldfire's gaze darkened as Giranja replied, remembering the blue serpentine dragoness from before. The shifter stepped back, almost ready to scour the land to find the me who had hurt his friend, but he forced his temper to wait turned back to Giranja. He held his hand up to the bandaged side of her face again, concern on his face. "How bad is it?" he murmured.
"Uh, Raven? You okay?" The jay tilted his head to the side. "Ou.....t.....la.....aw......" She replied. Her eyes were nearly closed and her breathing was ragged. "Raven!" He cried again. "Th...at's...........al...l.....I.....a..m....." Her voice cracked, and mixed with her ragged breathing she sounded like a crying toddler.
The breath was taken from Coldfire when Giranja revealed the sad truth of her wound. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, a small creature slammed into his head, nearly sending Coldfire's heart into his throat. He turned slowly to look at the offender, slightly annoyed from the interruption.
"I-I dunno. She's n-never been like this before," he said, voice raspy. Raven fell silent but she kept observing everything around her. The ring was gone and the world seemed muted and distant, only a few sounds coming through clearly. Her breathing slowed slightly as blood quickly stained the bandages. Her body remembered what pain was.
He only sighed in reply, looking at Raven intently. She returned the gaze, her eyes hazey. Her ears twitched as she took a deep, stuttering breath. One tail thumped slightly in the ground in discomfort. Nervous, the jay quietly hummed a tune he had heard at the inn just months ago to calm himself down. His long, ribbony tail flowed in even the slight breeze, a blue circle standing out clearly at its tip.
Coldfire eyed the Moondragon, not replying at first. Its somewhat squeaky yet intrusively loud voice made him want to swat it out of the air, but he knew it was also one of Giranja's friend, and perhaps a more loyal companion than himself. "It's fine," he lied, glancing back at Giranja as if hoping Murasakino would simply vanish and leave them alone again. (He doesn't like when his moments are interrupted. XD)
Still humming, the bird looked at Ela, amazed by her abilities. He had seen a lot, like a six-limbed creature (if from a far distance), a wyvern with a tail that curled into what looked like a ribbon made of pearls, a canine with wings, horns, and confetti (again, from quite a distance, along with a tall red wolf covered in shining gray scales), but never had he seen something that could change shape like this. He had heard of a fox who had many other forms, but he didn't know if he had truly seen it. /The world is stupid and confusing./
Coldfire sighed in relief on the inside when Giranja asked the Moondragon to leave, but he kept himself composed until he had left. He then turned back to the shiftress, but paused in confusion when he noticed her gaze not looking up to meet his own. Following her gaze, Coldfire's attention was brought to his right shoulder where her claws had scratched; the wounds had scabbed over by then, but he had failed to bandage it. He quickly looked back at Giranja. "Giranja, no. Don't take this as your fault - it was my own clumsiness," he said hurriedly.
"Well," the jay croaked. Raven moved her gaze over to him, and some subtle light shone in her eyes that said "Tell her." "Y-you see, Raven here is actually a Zeraxi, b-but I don't really know much about myself.. I woke up on a mountain one day and felt I had somewhere I just had to go. After flying a while, I found her. I only have really fuzzy and vague memories of before then but I'm not sure that was even me." His voice cracked when he spoke, still as if he wasn't used to speaking. He suddenly looked up, eyes wide. "U-unless that's not what you meant?"
Coldfire sighed in submission to her first comment, then looked at her remorsefully again. "I'm so sorry," he murmured, wishing he had been able to stop It sooner. After a moment though, he told himself to stop blaming himself for what had happened. //You're never going to get anywhere like that!// he reminded himself.
"Well now you know," he replied. Raven coughed, first just a small wheeze, but it escalated into a violent coughing spasm, and blood pooled slightly around the edges of her mouth. "Raven!" The jay cawed nervously. Before he could move, the coughing died down. Raven continued to look weakly around, staring blankly at Ela. Small scarlet drops stained the silvery gray fur on her muzzle, as if to reflect the rest of her. Her breath now came in short wheezes with what felt like painfully long intervals.
Wincing, the canine slowly lifted her head. If one listened closely enough they could almost hear the sore vertebrae creaking as she tried moving her head and slowly lapped at the water, sharp teeth just barely showing. After she drank for a while, her head thunked back down. Raven's teal eyes were fixed on the jay, who stood in front of her, heterochromic eyes still staring warily at her.
Coldfire opened his mouth but then closed it again, instead watching Giranja as she bandaged his arm. He gazed into her eyes as she wrapped her arms around him again, grinning faintly. "They'd need a lot more than that to take advantage of me. Rather, I was worried that you wouldn't recover after It. "I'm glad you're alright though."
(If he ever starts making cocky comments, it's because he's a boy and he needs to show off to the pretty girl. XD)
Raven closed her eyes for a second, and half opened them as she opened her mouth. "Jus..t..like....al..ways.." She said softly. Her eyes closed again and she continued speaking, taking deep breaths between every few words. "We go from enemies.... To allies.... So quickly.." The Zeraxi smiled slightly. "I don't... Understand... How..... Or why..." She wheezed slightly again, laying her ears back.
Coldfire realized that his face was uncomfortably hot after Giranja broke the hug and he turned slightly, running his fingers through his hair. "Yeah, me either," he said, looking back at her. Suddenly changing the subject, Coldfire asked, "W-What are you doing all the way out here, if I may? This is a distance from where we last were... And what's with the... dragon thing?" he queried, slightly tipping his head in the direction Murasakino had vanished.
Raven's smile cleared away and her eyes glazed slightly. "Dammit," she said softly. "Of course." She moved her head to stare at Ela better, remaining emotionless despite the extreme pain. "I always forget." She was too tired to mask her fear. Her eyes glinted and she inched her claws out slightly. The bird swiftly flew between them. "No more!" He cried. "No more! No more!" He flapped his wings, infuriated.
The jay kept cawing. "No more! Don't touch her!" He stared coldly at Ela, eyes piercing. "Just stop it!" He started shaking nervously. "Rib.. Stop," Raven said as best she could, coughing slightly. Her eyes were completely glazed over and she tried standing up, collapsing over and over like a newborn foal trying out its new legs. She managed to get herself into a half-sit, half-standing position and she lowered her head, looking in the general direction of Ela. "You want me to be honest?" She asked slowly, blood seeping through the bandages quickly. It pooled slightly in her mouth again and turned her tounge from a soft pink to a dark red.
Coldfire frowned as he listened to Giranja, upset that the TreasureSeeker organization was still sending her out on missions despite her eye injury - and impossible ones, at that. //How does anyone expect a person to find a particular rock out of the billions that exist?// Distracted by his annoyed thoughts, Coldfire missed her comment about Murasakino but returned to reality with her exclamation. "Hmm? Oh, uh, it doesn't matter that much, since it's not that cold here..." He rubbed he back of his neck, eyes darting and face growing warm. "Besides, it looks a little cute on you..."
Raven's face turned prideful. "You want to know who we are?" She wheezed slightly, and blood occasionally dripped off her chin. "We're fugitives, and by the way you seem to be you might as well be one yourself. But I can't be sure. Did you live your life teaching yourself about the world? Did you live your life forever running away from the consequences of fights you didn't know you could prevent?" She dug her claws into the ground. "You want to know where he came from? A feather I took. A trophy from a fight. A damned trek up a damned mountain in a damned world to end up dead at the claws and hands of some damned creature I came across and didn't run away from." "Raven.. Calm down now.." The jay said softly. "But if you truly want me dead you may as well let me say my dying wish. Unless, of course, you just let me live. And let me leave." Her legs shook from standing so long, and it felt as if her lungs would burst.
( @alk i'd start a new stream with a different character but im invested in developing these two xD And im glad you guys like reading my stuff?? That's honestly my only real goal other than to get my emotions out ;o;)
"I can barely tell you're related by your description of her," Raven growled sarcastically. Fed up with the bickering, the bird flew onto one of Raven's horns and whispered in her ear. "Now listen, Raven. You are gonna lay the heck back down and I will keep watch on you, and you are gonna get better or so help me I'll be the one to kill you!" He straightened himself, puffing out the white feathers on his chest. The Zeraxi stared for a second and then crumpled onto the ground as if her skeleton had suddenly been taken away, sending the bird back into the air where he landed next to her, keeping a close eye on Elanceria.
Catching Giranja's embarrassment, Coldfire turned his face away as well, flushing harder and rubbing his neck more. He nearly apologized again, but he stopped himself when he realized that doing so would only be more awkward. //I can't believe I'm hoping for this, but it would really be great if that talkative Moondragon came back,// Coldfire thought.
Giving up, the bird tucked his head under a speckled wing, trying to keep himself in a light sleep despite his exhaustion. He gave Raven a last look with a deep purple eye before drifting into an unguarded sleep.
( @Fade well, not really? I know I started writing a sort of character story a little more than a year ago (gaspspsp i forgot that Glitch is the oldest character of mine at a grand total of one year old xD) and I did that story for a little while, but not much. This year I've been writing occasional oc stories just in a random word document or something but otherwise I've just been writing essays on child soldiers and ecotourism -_- school right? But I take a lot of inspiration from the books I read. I don't read as much now that I draw all the time, but I mainly take from Cornelia Funke, who wrote the Inkheart trilogy and the trilogy is my love aaaaaaaaaa But I always admired how they could have such a compelling story with this perfect blend of description and dialouge :0
(That'd be cool, Ash! Coldfire's appearance had changed a little, but all it really is is that his spines are longer and a little more rustic and he's got a spike on his chin. XD)
(I want to draw a scene with Ela and Raven but there are too many good ones to choose from lol Darn me and my need to create description so I can easily have a mental image of the scene while I'm reading! Ya got me with all your art ideas!)
(That's awesome, wulfeh! Analyzing writing styles and writing a lot are the two best methods to becoming a better writer - no wonder you're already so good! x) I haven't been reading much lately, so I'm losing my knack for writing. You keep up what you're doing!)
(Goodnight! :3 I know it's 12:14 but it's the weekend and I haven't lost the writing feel yet so I'm still practically bouncing around inbetween responses xD)
( @spec Here i can typ efaster for you is this better iwhtout autocorrecst also this playlist im listening to dkes not fit the mood fo whta we are dkojjng
And that kids is why you usually look at the keyboard when you type instead of hoping it's right :) )
Dawn broke out in the sky, thinly spreading a milky light across the land. Raven twitched her ears, thumping the white-tipped tail on the ground (i cant remember if theres one white and two black or vice versa, rip). For a second all she saw was the bird and thought she was back home, or it had just been a nightmare, but she looked around to an unfamiliar place, bloody bandages covering her fur, and... The dragon.
(Aaa sorry my ipad glitched out for a second Basically they just had a fight but then ela is like 'nah ur not dying' but then she turned around and was like 'lol i can kill u easily u wimps' so raven was like 'oh nuuuu u take dat back boi' and ribbonjay was all like a hippie asking for peace? Yeah and then emma tried to explain but shes bad at it)
Raven slowly moved her head; unable to pick it up she instead dragged it until she was facing Ela. "You know," she sighed weakly, "you never properly introduced yourself. Kinda rude. Though, I'm talking to the one who would almost kill me, then heal me, then threaten to kill me again." Her eyes were still glazed over and her breathing remained at its now usual, unsteady pace.
The Zeraxi nodded the best she could. "Raven. Though, that is just a cover name, and few people use it anyways. Most just call me an outlaw." She flicked her ears towards the bluejay, who was still asleep. "He doesn't really have a name."
(And my goodness someone showed my the FRE SHAVACADO vine in robotics and it was the most beautiful thing But nothing tops my best friend talking to herself. Without that we wouldnt have such great quotes as: Mr. Kraaaaaaabs! And, Not the ice cream maaaan!)
Raven stretched slightly. "Like I said earlier. You raise yourself, society hates ya for doin things differently than them." She closed one eye against the morning sun and yawned. "When you're a little kid you don't know what's good and what's bad so you gotta assume everything's bad. And when someone gets too close, you fight." She sighed and muttered to herself under her breath. "If I hadn't been stupid enough to leave Adain.." She stared at the ground, trying to blink and make the haze in her sight go away.

"You get used to it," Raven said calmly, staring at nothing. She sat in silence. "I'm sorry you gotta watch me like I'm some baby that decided it'd be a good idea to crawl off the bed." She looked away, clearly upset at herself. "And what I mean by that is, you had to deal with me picking a fight and then had to treat my wounds and now you gotta watch me. Well, you don't have to, but you do." She looked back up at Ela. Her eyes were cleared and she stared straight at the dragon. Blood crusted around her lips from the night before and had turned the bandages and the fur around a dark, dark red.
"At least your child could have the benefit of hands every once in a while," Raven hissed as Ela took off the bandages. Even though it had just been one night, it was enough time for the blood to be stuck to both bandage and fur, and some of the wounds reopened slightly as their fabric cover was torn away. The Zeraxi winced. /This is worse than when I was blown off the cliff,/ she thought.
"For having me crash on the ground twice, I guess it's acceptable damage," she said calmly, half joking. "You could've bitten me till I was nothing more than prey, use those fancy blades on your tail to slice me in pieces, you know, the usual."
"Wonderful. More material to waste on a dying animal," she barked softly. No one had cared for her this much, not since Adain. /I hope you're not looking for me,/ she thought, looking up at the sky. "How the heck did I get here?" She thought aloud.
"Wish I could get back. Even if only two out there care, it's two and that's enough reason for me." She kept looking up at the sky. The bird still sat sleeping, long tail now curled around his body. "You ever miss your murderous dragon-human?" Raven asked after a while of silence. "I mean, you ARE her mother, after all." She looked over at Ela, head still facing the clouds.
"Trust hasn't been my thing but I know I only injure if they're hurting me so I'm sure she's got a damn good reason for it." Her gaze became distant and unfocused again and her breathing ragged. "You had a good reason to toss me against the ground. I tried clawing your eyes out." One of her paws shook slightly. "That fox had a good reason to fight me until I collapsed. I took his prey, after all." She closed her eyes.
"Don't go walking too fast," Raven growled. As she struggled to stand, she whacked the bird with the black-tipped tail and he awoke with a parrot-like squawk.
Raven smirked back. "I never said anything about friendship. I was just sayin that you're trying to rush your life. Also the fact that I can barely even stand." She dug her claws into the ground for support and took tentative steps forward, breathing shallow, fast breaths.
"I've dealt with enough physical limitations to know that mental limitafions are what you gotta watch out for," the canine sat down, showing off the tufts of dark blue mane that weren't covered in bandaging. "Not my first time falling off a cliff. And besides, this time I actually have medical assistance." She said everything in a calm voice, words swinging together as if every sentence was a song of spite and sarcasm.

"Nah. But when I was hissing in your ear standing on your head you were high up enough to be a cliff." She gave her a cold, blank stare. "But this time it wasn't some stupid wind. Nope, it was a dragon."
"Outlawed birds!" The bluejay piped up, landing on one of Raven's antlers. She laughed, and even with her breath messed up her laughter ran clear like bells. She tried standing and stretched a little. One bone gave a nasty pop as she stretched and she locked herself in that position. "Welp. Guess I'm stuck now. I deserve this," she muttered. A little more blood stained the bandage near the bone that had made the noise.
Raven shrugged. "Like I said, I probably deserve it." She winked slightly, trying to hide her pain. "I can still breathe n stuff though." She took a step forward as if to prove her point.
And thanks ash aaaaaa i had fun developing mine as well, and don't worry you just gotta write a ton. The main way i can get away with writing a ton with barely any dialouge is because i always enjoyed being able to picture the scenes i was reading while still being able to read at a fairly fast pace. You can tell when I'm not sure what to add or I'm losing some of the writing feel because my entries get shorter x'D

08 Apr, 2017, 7:54 pm
Im good, just failing at this drawing xP
Buuut im also tired because my brother's puppy woke me up at 6... Good job Bella :/
08 Apr, 2017, 7:56 pm
Still looks awesome! I love this emblem! x)
08 Apr, 2017, 7:57 pm
I know I'm not the best at wolves, but would you like some help, @wulfeh? I can do a redline kind of thing if you want. :P
08 Apr, 2017, 7:59 pm
@Fade I'm just kinda browsing through google images and trying different poses, but I just can't do them very well yet xP
08 Apr, 2017, 8:00 pm
@Spec I keep forgetting your timezone and I was really confused xD
If I remember correctly, you're... 13 hours ahead. Maybe. It's 4:00pm for me right now.
08 Apr, 2017, 8:01 pm
Hey @Ash! I'm good, sipping on a smoothie. XD How are you?
@wulfehs: Alright then, good luck! If you want help, I'm on a break so I'm available. ^~^
08 Apr, 2017, 8:02 pm
Hey, we've got the same timezone!
08 Apr, 2017, 8:06 pm
@Spec, ah so you'd be 14 ahead.
I'll try to remember that :P I dunno why but I just like knowing what time it is where everyone else is, sometimes it just helps me know when to post chats and stuff.
But lemme tell you the weather is the craziest thing where I am. Can you please decide if it's hot/cold/raining/sunny Ohio??
08 Apr, 2017, 8:12 pm
@Spec you live near Melbourne? On our english state test, there are at least three different versions you can get each time (so you can't cheat) and I got an article talking about a tree-emailing system in Melbourne and how it helped the community :0
And then I wrote an essay on ecotourism. Ah, state testing. It gets earlier every year I swear next year I'll have to take it after winter break or something
08 Apr, 2017, 8:13 pm
@Ash: I don't think it's necessary, but you can if you want to. I just called Coldfire a species to make him sound a little more proper, since he's the prince of a kingdom and his kind should probably have a name. XD
08 Apr, 2017, 8:18 pm
@Spec that random kid I talk about occasionally, Connor, found the article during history class and tried finding the email system xD
My classmates are really, rrrreally ridiculous :P
08 Apr, 2017, 8:24 pm
Agh I got the front legs but the back are so awkward-looking because of the positioning on the screen x'D

08 Apr, 2017, 9:23 pm
Well,,, if she's not here,,,, we can make, like, side scenarios with different characters??
I kinda feel like writing for a rebellious character so i'll slap my Zeraxi in :0 but I'm too lazy to find a reason why she'd be in Sylyore, but I'm also going to keep some of her memories intact xD
And if you want I can throw Ribbonjay in with her :P

The Torukis waited for the others to leave and then closed their tomb. The fairy sat on the rock, waiting in the dark night for others.
08 Apr, 2017, 10:30 pm
(heyo-- Im back. Imma do something with love birds ewe
In the forest, Splash was stroking Rosemarie and put her in a tiny burrow like tunnel, and covered the entrance with leaves.
08 Apr, 2017, 10:35 pm
(ummm white? rosemaria is a boy. right? o_o)
08 Apr, 2017, 10:35 pm
She was eating black berries from her "Storage". But, a pack of Hijus were near by, she heard them. Splash didn't know what to do. She randomly shifted into a cow. The Hijus have spotted her and got suspicious. "I never see those anymore." One said, the other said "I don't think that thing is supposed to be here, maybe-" "It's still meat isn't it? Lets get it!"
08 Apr, 2017, 10:37 pm
(I might have Aylin and Haruka slightly ditch night and day to explore xD)
Still wide awake, the small Moondragon pranced around in the grass, bounding around Haruka. Sighing, he watched her with one lazily-opened eye. "Explore!" She cried, purple markings shining. Her cries turned into a sort of chant, and the Ribbonwing gave up. Not wanting to disappoint her, he stood and stretched his wings, however much he wanted to smack her with a flower petal to let him sleep. He turned his head to Day.
"Do you need to escort us somewhere? Give us any advice for places to go?" His voice croaked slightly and he cleared it with a low growl. Aylin leaped onto his back excitedly.
08 Apr, 2017, 10:37 pm
(Oh no no no Rose is a girl and I'm not doing anything with her. I'm bringing out Nuro. A waterfury who is supposed to protect Splash forever. He a boy.. Star is gonna be ubset
08 Apr, 2017, 10:42 pm
"And besides, it's the males who are dangerous! It's a female!" The Hijus ran and aimed for her neck, Splash tried to back away, but she was too slow. As she lost hope, a bull, big and fierce stood infront of her, and headbutted them. The Hijus fell over, and looked at the bull, kicking and scraping his hoof against the dirt, they ran away growling.
08 Apr, 2017, 10:47 pm
The animal turned back to Splash to see her in her normal waterfury form, looking at it in awe. "W-wow.. I never really saw a real one before!" "What are you talking about princess? +Shifts back" "+Gasps+ Y-y-y.. Your a... A water fury??" "Yep, make that water fury- gaurd for you. You looked like you were in trouble." "M-me?! Why me?" Nuro sighed. He looked at her in the eyes slightly blushing. "Before your parents passed, they requested something of me... Splash was confused.
08 Apr, 2017, 10:52 pm
"They wanted me to look after you- forever." Splash jumped back a bit. "Why didn't they tell me this?! State your name.." Nuro bowed to her, and spreaded his water wings backwards. "I am Nuro. Nuro Vante. And I am here to protect you, Princess Splash." Splash crossed her arms and blushed a bit as well. She turned her head to the side. "Mmmf.." Nuro got up and they both sat down.
08 Apr, 2017, 10:59 pm
"So.. My parents sent you.. Huh?" He nodded. "So.. Why weren't you here earlier.. When the palace fell down? The only ones to find me were Day and Star.. They are my friends.." "Well I thought you'd be on the island when everyone was evacuating the palace. I searched everywere for you." She looked at him again, but then turned back and smiled a bit uncontroably. She tried not to smile, but she only blushed when she tried not to.

Nuro acted kind of the same. Execpt he blushed alot more. "S-so. Who is Star?" "Oh. Uh. He is my friend. His real name is StarStruck and he is a StarFury. We can go see him." "Ok, who is Day?" "Day is a SunFury. She is really nice, but I don't know were she is.." Nuro flicked his ear.

08 Apr, 2017, 11:42 pm
A blue jay flew overhead, occasionally flapping speckled wings to keep pace with the canine-like creature trotting below him. A bright green tail soared behind the crow-like body, taller than other jays. The bird kept a dark purple eye on the creature and a dark blue on the trees ahead, so as to not crash. Dodging some branches, he hummed quietly to himself.
The creature below belonged to a certain species known as the Zeraxi, and this one was by the name of Raven. She trotted quickly, teal eyes searching for an exit from the realm she found herself in. Raven was about to call to the blue jay; to have him stay closer or perch on her antler-like horns; but he stopped his singing and cried out when he saw the large dragon flying in the air above. Raven froze for a second, unsure whether to run or hide.
(Idk why i introduced raven like that...)
08 Apr, 2017, 11:44 pm
Nuro and Splash got closer together.. Looking at each others eyes.
08 Apr, 2017, 11:58 pm
(That was epic, @wulfeh!
@Ash: Is Gira free, or is she still on that mission to find the stone?)

(*sneaks in* Helloo peoples)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:03 am
(Hi Spectral :))
09 Apr, 2017, 12:03 am
Raven still stood, stunned. The new realm seemed to have erased her instincts- back home, she would either be running away on an impossible trail, or had already leaped into the air, ready to fight. The bluejay circled around her head, screeching in her long ears. It landed on one of her horns and gave up plain noises.
"RAVEN!" He cried, and the Zeraxi snapped back into focus. As the dragon came closer, she crouched down, teeth bared and claws out, ready to defend herself. Her dark blue fur flowed in the wind and she lashed three tails along the ground, and the bird spread out his spotted wings as if he really dared to take on the dragon alone.
(Thanks @Fade :'0)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:04 am
(Oh hey there @Galaxy!)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:10 am
(Hi Wulfehs :P)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:13 am
(Hi Galaxy! :D
@Ash: Alright. I'm curious to see how Coldfire will react to Gira's injured eye, but the interaction might take too long and Day would probably be back by then.)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:17 am
(Hi Fading. :})
09 Apr, 2017, 12:21 am
( @Ash: Alright! Haha, roleplaying as Coldfire in two different rooms is going to get confusing. XD)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:24 am
The Zeraxi loosened slightly, still glaring at her. In her land she tought herself never to trust anybody, not even if they raised you... The bluejay lowered his wings. He trusted too easily. Raven hissed under her breath.
"Rib.. How do we know she won't turn on us and fight us anyways?" Her voice cracked slightly, tired.
"Call down, Raven. Lighten up a bit," the bird replied calmly. Still glaring, she straightened herself, to try and look more powerful.
"What do you want with us, dragon?" Raven barked, keeping her tufted ears facing forward. The jay gave a small sigh.

09 Apr, 2017, 12:28 am
After departing from the mysterious dragon Skylate, Coldfire continued to fly about Sylyore aimlessly, not sure where to go or what to do. It had been a few days since he had departed from Giranja, and he was finally learning how to keep his mind off of her. He quietly scanned the ground below, looking for prey to eat.
09 Apr, 2017, 12:29 am
(WB Day! I get that. xP
What time of day is it?)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:35 am
The canine tensed again, her sharp claws extended all the way and teeth ready to bite down on anything, even a dragon's scales. Before snarling back an answer to the dragon, she quickly hissed an "I told you!" to the bird.
"Exactly what we look like, a canine and a bird!" Raven barked loudly. Her mind was still fuzzy and it was hard to focus directly on the dragon, but she had been in this state before. /Too many times have I done this,/ she thought. /But the only prize feather from this fight will most likely be one from Rib, and I can't risk that./ She took a determined step forward, and to her anger the bird chirped,
"Look ma'am, we don't wanna fight you," his voice was small and raspy, like he longed to have one voice but was stuck with another.
( @Day do you remember the random rainforest rp and how raven took one of areli's feathers? HINT HINT WINK WINK)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:37 am
Seeing a forest up ahead, Coldfire banked and landed at its borders, taking a step inside and inhaling the scents that wafted from it. However, his eyes snapped open and his body went rigid when he caught a familiar scent. "Is that...?"
09 Apr, 2017, 12:45 am
For a moment, Coldfire stayed frozen to the spot. He longed to find her again, see whether she was alright after her strange shift into the red beast, yet he also wanted to run away, afraid his cursed luck would affect her again. However, when another breeze carried Giranja's scent an overwhelmed his senses, he found himself darted forward, eyes wide as he searched for te familiar dragoness.
09 Apr, 2017, 12:47 am
(Whoop for convenience (and laziness) raven knows what lies sound like)
"Don't insult her!" The bird cried, spreading his wings out in defiance. Raven seemed frozen for a second, repeating the dragon's words in her mind. /"I don't want to fight you. I don't want to fight you,"/ the voice repeated. Something in Raven's mind sparked, and it kindled a flame inside her feet.
"LIAR!" The Zeraxi howled, the word echoing against the trees. She lunged forward, knocking the jay into the air, and she launched herself at the dragon's head. Snarling, she dug her claws into the scales and hissed loudly in the dragon's ear.
"'Don't mess with an outlaw from the mountains,'" she recited the well-spread saying with a deep, menacing tone that didn't seem to be able to come from the Zeraxi. (AM I ALLOWED TO DO THIS?? I NEED SUSPENSE IM SO SORRY) Howling again, she tried clawing at the dragon's eyes. The bird circled high above, cawing anxiously.
09 Apr, 2017, 12:50 am
(Also sorry if some of what i say doesn't make much sense? I have all my characters' backgrounds in the back of my head but i never really get to explaining them much.
Plus raven's sorta supposed to be a spooky mystery, outlaw, "menace to society" and all that. Ah poor little Raven. Not even her real name ;P)
09 Apr, 2017, 12:57 am
Racing through the trees, Coldfire followed Giranja's scent intently, gasping from exertion. Finally, he burst out into a forest clearing and skidded to a stop when he spotted the figure in the middle. He stared at the dragoness in her human form before him, his expression as surprised as her own. "Giranja...."
09 Apr, 2017, 1:01 am
Raven was flung to the ground, landing with a horrifying crunch. Her vision was blurry as the fuzz in her mind grew. Blood roared in her ears and all she knew was that the bird had been caught. For the split second she was down it seemed as if time had stopped. The fire grew, reaching to every part of her, and turned her eyes brighter.
"MENACE!" She howled, and she felt as if she had grown wings. She launched herself again at the dragon, ramming her antlers into the dragon's jaw. Blood covered her eyes and she rolled along the ground, a few betraying sticks jabbing her in the side. Blood flowed down one leg and she lay motionless.
09 Apr, 2017, 1:01 am
(Raven's determination ex machina)
09 Apr, 2017, 1:02 am
(Spelling)
Splash had turned into a girrafe. Nuro took form as a brown Seagull, and hopped on her back. "I know all about this forest," She said looking at him. "I live here now." "Ah. It's pretty princess." Splash had a worried sigh. "Umm.. Nuro, please.. Don't call me princess.. I don't deserve to be called princess after what happened.." "Hey! That was Shadow's fault, and the snow fury's.+Licks+ But... Whatever you say..." Splash blushed again. "Please, call me Splash." "Ok, Splash :3"
09 Apr, 2017, 1:13 am
Overwhelmed by emotion, Coldfire stepped forward slowly, mouth hanging open, then shifted suddenly into his human form. Without a thought, he raced forward and wrapped his arms around Giranja. He squeezed his eyes shut as he embraced her, not trusting his voice enough to speak yet.
09 Apr, 2017, 1:18 am
(Aaa sorry! Got distracted)
Raven's ears rang, and after a while of laying still, the ringing softened into a song, one she had not heard in years. The sound of dripping water came from nowhere, and wove into the rhythm of the notes until it was one swirling song full of the howling of wind and starry wolves that would poke their paws down from the stars. She opened one of her eyes, her breathing ragged. Her ears were laid back and the rest of her body laid limp on the ground. The notes wove into her mind as an icy teal eye stared intently back at the dragon, and nothing else.
The bluejay recovered slightly, flapping his wings and hiding amongst the nearby branches. Quietly, he made his way to a tree above the Zeraxi, and held his breath when he saw the large pool of blood. Raven's mouth moved slightly, but she made no noise.
(Welcome to: Raven has a mental breakdown. We thank you as always for your attendance to this show and hope you enjoy.)
09 Apr, 2017, 1:26 am
Raven's eye followed the dragon's every movement. The bird cawed softly, unsure of what to do. /This is too confusing. Did I die? I think I died,/ he thought. He flew down towards Raven's head, staring intently at the dragon. "Did I die?" He asked Raven, not looking away.
The Zeraxi still laid there. Something about this new realm had ruined her mind, or at least scrambled it. She sang softly, but her voice was too broken and quiet to make out the words.
( #suddenmoodchanges)
09 Apr, 2017, 1:33 am
Coldfire embraced Giranja tighter when she returned his hug, faintly noticing with joy that she was still wearing the jacket he had lent her. "I'm sorry," he finally whispered. "I'm so sorry for leaving you. I should never have abandoned you when you were in such a state." He released the embrace and met Giranja's gaze, but he found that there was only one eye to look at, as the other was bandaged tightly. His expression going blank, Coldfire slowly brought a hand up to the side of her head. "Giranja.... Who did this to you?"
09 Apr, 2017, 1:44 am
The bluejay paced in place, flustered. "The-the wounds y-you inflicted, y-y-you.... Monster!!" He stuttered, nervous. Raven's white paw twitched slightly at the touch of the dragon's tounge.
(Sorry im playing animal crossing with @nappez xP)
09 Apr, 2017, 1:53 am
With an annoyed sigh, he flew after the dragon. Raven stopped singing softly, and the song quieted. Her mind grew fuzzy again and she mumbled to herself. Her eye was half-closed by now and it followed the dragon's movements slower.
"Don... et... the.....utlaw...ge....you..." She said quietly. She repeated it, only bits of words sounding. "On't...le...........out.....et........." The words broke apart more with each repeat.
(Im sorry im so slow now ;-;)
09 Apr, 2017, 1:53 am
Coldfire's gaze darkened as Giranja replied, remembering the blue serpentine dragoness from before. The shifter stepped back, almost ready to scour the land to find the me who had hurt his friend, but he forced his temper to wait turned back to Giranja. He held his hand up to the bandaged side of her face again, concern on his face. "How bad is it?" he murmured.
09 Apr, 2017, 1:53 am
(*one, not me)
09 Apr, 2017, 2:03 am
(No! I wanna keep going :0)
"Uh, Raven? You okay?" The jay tilted his head to the side.
"Ou.....t.....la.....aw......" She replied. Her eyes were nearly closed and her breathing was ragged.
"Raven!" He cried again.
"Th...at's...........al...l.....I.....a..m....." Her voice cracked, and mixed with her ragged breathing she sounded like a crying toddler.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:03 am
The breath was taken from Coldfire when Giranja revealed the sad truth of her wound. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, a small creature slammed into his head, nearly sending Coldfire's heart into his throat. He turned slowly to look at the offender, slightly annoyed from the interruption.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:14 am
"I-I dunno. She's n-never been like this before," he said, voice raspy. Raven fell silent but she kept observing everything around her. The ring was gone and the world seemed muted and distant, only a few sounds coming through clearly. Her breathing slowed slightly as blood quickly stained the bandages. Her body remembered what pain was.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:20 am
(I hate to ask, but what kind of creature is Mura? I'm not very caught up. 'XD)
09 Apr, 2017, 2:22 am
He only sighed in reply, looking at Raven intently. She returned the gaze, her eyes hazey. Her ears twitched as she took a deep, stuttering breath. One tail thumped slightly in the ground in discomfort. Nervous, the jay quietly hummed a tune he had heard at the inn just months ago to calm himself down. His long, ribbony tail flowed in even the slight breeze, a blue circle standing out clearly at its tip.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:24 am
(Thanks!)
Coldfire eyed the Moondragon, not replying at first. Its somewhat squeaky yet intrusively loud voice made him want to swat it out of the air, but he knew it was also one of Giranja's friend, and perhaps a more loyal companion than himself. "It's fine," he lied, glancing back at Giranja as if hoping Murasakino would simply vanish and leave them alone again.
(He doesn't like when his moments are interrupted. XD)

Still humming, the bird looked at Ela, amazed by her abilities. He had seen a lot, like a six-limbed creature (if from a far distance), a wyvern with a tail that curled into what looked like a ribbon made of pearls, a canine with wings, horns, and confetti (again, from quite a distance, along with a tall red wolf covered in shining gray scales), but never had he seen something that could change shape like this. He had heard of a fox who had many other forms, but he didn't know if he had truly seen it. /The world is stupid and confusing./
09 Apr, 2017, 2:36 am
Coldfire sighed in relief on the inside when Giranja asked the Moondragon to leave, but he kept himself composed until he had left. He then turned back to the shiftress, but paused in confusion when he noticed her gaze not looking up to meet his own. Following her gaze, Coldfire's attention was brought to his right shoulder where her claws had scratched; the wounds had scabbed over by then, but he had failed to bandage it. He quickly looked back at Giranja. "Giranja, no. Don't take this as your fault - it was my own clumsiness," he said hurriedly.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:39 am
"Well," the jay croaked. Raven moved her gaze over to him, and some subtle light shone in her eyes that said "Tell her."
"Y-you see, Raven here is actually a Zeraxi, b-but I don't really know much about myself.. I woke up on a mountain one day and felt I had somewhere I just had to go. After flying a while, I found her. I only have really fuzzy and vague memories of before then but I'm not sure that was even me." His voice cracked when he spoke, still as if he wasn't used to speaking. He suddenly looked up, eyes wide. "U-unless that's not what you meant?"
09 Apr, 2017, 2:45 am
Coldfire sighed in submission to her first comment, then looked at her remorsefully again. "I'm so sorry," he murmured, wishing he had been able to stop It sooner. After a moment though, he told himself to stop blaming himself for what had happened. //You're never going to get anywhere like that!// he reminded himself.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:48 am
"Well now you know," he replied. Raven coughed, first just a small wheeze, but it escalated into a violent coughing spasm, and blood pooled slightly around the edges of her mouth.
"Raven!" The jay cawed nervously. Before he could move, the coughing died down. Raven continued to look weakly around, staring blankly at Ela. Small scarlet drops stained the silvery gray fur on her muzzle, as if to reflect the rest of her. Her breath now came in short wheezes with what felt like painfully long intervals.
09 Apr, 2017, 2:58 am
Wincing, the canine slowly lifted her head. If one listened closely enough they could almost hear the sore vertebrae creaking as she tried moving her head and slowly lapped at the water, sharp teeth just barely showing. After she drank for a while, her head thunked back down. Raven's teal eyes were fixed on the jay, who stood in front of her, heterochromic eyes still staring warily at her.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:02 am
Coldfire opened his mouth but then closed it again, instead watching Giranja as she bandaged his arm. He gazed into her eyes as she wrapped her arms around him again, grinning faintly. "They'd need a lot more than that to take advantage of me. Rather, I was worried that you wouldn't recover after It. "I'm glad you're alright though."
(If he ever starts making cocky comments, it's because he's a boy and he needs to show off to the pretty girl. XD)

09 Apr, 2017, 3:13 am
Raven closed her eyes for a second, and half opened them as she opened her mouth.
"Jus..t..like....al..ways.." She said softly. Her eyes closed again and she continued speaking, taking deep breaths between every few words. "We go from enemies.... To allies.... So quickly.." The Zeraxi smiled slightly. "I don't... Understand... How..... Or why..." She wheezed slightly again, laying her ears back.

09 Apr, 2017, 3:20 am
Coldfire realized that his face was uncomfortably hot after Giranja broke the hug and he turned slightly, running his fingers through his hair. "Yeah, me either," he said, looking back at her. Suddenly changing the subject, Coldfire asked, "W-What are you doing all the way out here, if I may? This is a distance from where we last were... And what's with the... dragon thing?" he queried, slightly tipping his head in the direction Murasakino had vanished.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:23 am
Raven's smile cleared away and her eyes glazed slightly. "Dammit," she said softly. "Of course." She moved her head to stare at Ela better, remaining emotionless despite the extreme pain. "I always forget." She was too tired to mask her fear. Her eyes glinted and she inched her claws out slightly.
The bird swiftly flew between them. "No more!" He cried. "No more! No more!" He flapped his wings, infuriated.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:28 am
( mmmmm it's probably too late for me to join... Plus I baffled as to what is going on.)
09 Apr, 2017, 3:29 am
( @alk
So ela and raven fought
Then raven almost died
Now theyre having a salt battle)
09 Apr, 2017, 3:34 am
The jay kept cawing. "No more! Don't touch her!" He stared coldly at Ela, eyes piercing. "Just stop it!" He started shaking nervously.
"Rib.. Stop," Raven said as best she could, coughing slightly. Her eyes were completely glazed over and she tried standing up, collapsing over and over like a newborn foal trying out its new legs. She managed to get herself into a half-sit, half-standing position and she lowered her head, looking in the general direction of Ela. "You want me to be honest?" She asked slowly, blood seeping through the bandages quickly. It pooled slightly in her mouth again and turned her tounge from a soft pink to a dark red.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:35 am
Coldfire frowned as he listened to Giranja, upset that the TreasureSeeker organization was still sending her out on missions despite her eye injury - and impossible ones, at that. //How does anyone expect a person to find a particular rock out of the billions that exist?// Distracted by his annoyed thoughts, Coldfire missed her comment about Murasakino but returned to reality with her exclamation. "Hmm? Oh, uh, it doesn't matter that much, since it's not that cold here..." He rubbed he back of his neck, eyes darting and face growing warm. "Besides, it looks a little cute on you..."
09 Apr, 2017, 3:39 am
(Can you all tell my english teacher about all the figurative language I'm using
She probably wouldn't believe me lol)
09 Apr, 2017, 3:46 am
Raven's face turned prideful. "You want to know who we are?" She wheezed slightly, and blood occasionally dripped off her chin. "We're fugitives, and by the way you seem to be you might as well be one yourself. But I can't be sure. Did you live your life teaching yourself about the world? Did you live your life forever running away from the consequences of fights you didn't know you could prevent?" She dug her claws into the ground. "You want to know where he came from? A feather I took. A trophy from a fight. A damned trek up a damned mountain in a damned world to end up dead at the claws and hands of some damned creature I came across and didn't run away from."
"Raven.. Calm down now.." The jay said softly.
"But if you truly want me dead you may as well let me say my dying wish. Unless, of course, you just let me live. And let me leave." Her legs shook from standing so long, and it felt as if her lungs would burst.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:46 am
(I really want to throw out my charas at people but I don't know where to begin and I just feel lost. Haha lol I'm a wreck in this rp. XD)

And im glad you guys like reading my stuff?? That's honestly my only real goal other than to get my emotions out ;o;)
09 Apr, 2017, 3:56 am
"I can barely tell you're related by your description of her," Raven growled sarcastically. Fed up with the bickering, the bird flew onto one of Raven's horns and whispered in her ear.
"Now listen, Raven. You are gonna lay the heck back down and I will keep watch on you, and you are gonna get better or so help me I'll be the one to kill you!" He straightened himself, puffing out the white feathers on his chest. The Zeraxi stared for a second and then crumpled onto the ground as if her skeleton had suddenly been taken away, sending the bird back into the air where he landed next to her, keeping a close eye on Elanceria.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:59 am
The bird muttered to himself under his breath. He was very tired as well, but wouldn't risk the both of them being caught off-guard.
09 Apr, 2017, 3:59 am
( @wulfehs idk my other ocs aren't really fitting for the rp...)
09 Apr, 2017, 3:59 am
Catching Giranja's embarrassment, Coldfire turned his face away as well, flushing harder and rubbing his neck more. He nearly apologized again, but he stopped himself when he realized that doing so would only be more awkward. //I can't believe I'm hoping for this, but it would really be great if that talkative Moondragon came back,// Coldfire thought.

09 Apr, 2017, 4:03 am
Giving up, the bird tucked his head under a speckled wing, trying to keep himself in a light sleep despite his exhaustion. He gave Raven a last look with a deep purple eye before drifting into an unguarded sleep.

09 Apr, 2017, 4:08 am
( @Fade well, not really? I know I started writing a sort of character story a little more than a year ago (gaspspsp i forgot that Glitch is the oldest character of mine at a grand total of one year old xD) and I did that story for a little while, but not much. This year I've been writing occasional oc stories just in a random word document or something but otherwise I've just been writing essays on child soldiers and ecotourism -_- school right?
But I take a lot of inspiration from the books I read. I don't read as much now that I draw all the time, but I mainly take from Cornelia Funke, who wrote the Inkheart trilogy and the trilogy is my love aaaaaaaaaa
But I always admired how they could have such a compelling story with this perfect blend of description and dialouge :0
^^^^^long rant is l o n g)

(Oops i spent too long typing! xD goodnight Fade!)

(That'd be cool, Ash! Coldfire's appearance had changed a little, but all it really is is that his spines are longer and a little more rustic and he's got a spike on his chin. XD)

(I want to draw a scene with Ela and Raven but there are too many good ones to choose from lol

(That's awesome, wulfeh! Analyzing writing styles and writing a lot are the two best methods to becoming a better writer - no wonder you're already so good! x) I haven't been reading much lately, so I'm losing my knack for writing. You keep up what you're doing!)

Dawn broke out in the sky, thinly spreading a milky light across the land. Raven twitched her ears, thumping the white-tipped tail on the ground (i cant remember if theres one white and two black or vice versa, rip). For a second all she saw was the bird and thought she was back home, or it had just been a nightmare, but she looked around to an unfamiliar place, bloody bandages covering her fur, and...
The dragon.
09 Apr, 2017, 4:30 am

(Aaa sorry my ipad glitched out for a second
Basically they just had a fight but then ela is like 'nah ur not dying' but then she turned around and was like 'lol i can kill u easily u wimps' so raven was like 'oh nuuuu u take dat back boi' and ribbonjay was all like a hippie asking for peace? Yeah and then emma tried to explain but shes bad at it)
09 Apr, 2017, 4:43 am
Raven slowly moved her head; unable to pick it up she instead dragged it until she was facing Ela.
"You know," she sighed weakly, "you never properly introduced yourself. Kinda rude. Though, I'm talking to the one who would almost kill me, then heal me, then threaten to kill me again." Her eyes were still glazed over and her breathing remained at its now usual, unsteady pace.
09 Apr, 2017, 4:44 am
(There are two types of writers in this world
Meme writers, and normal writers.
And i am both.)
09 Apr, 2017, 4:53 am
The Zeraxi nodded the best she could. "Raven. Though, that is just a cover name, and few people use it anyways. Most just call me an outlaw." She flicked her ears towards the bluejay, who was still asleep. "He doesn't really have a name."
09 Apr, 2017, 4:54 am

Raven stretched slightly. "Like I said earlier. You raise yourself, society hates ya for doin things differently than them." She closed one eye against the morning sun and yawned. "When you're a little kid you don't know what's good and what's bad so you gotta assume everything's bad. And when someone gets too close, you fight." She sighed and muttered to herself under her breath. "If I hadn't been stupid enough to leave Adain.." She stared at the ground, trying to blink and make the haze in her sight go away.

"You get used to it," Raven said calmly, staring at nothing. She sat in silence. "I'm sorry you gotta watch me like I'm some baby that decided it'd be a good idea to crawl off the bed." She looked away, clearly upset at herself. "And what I mean by that is, you had to deal with me picking a fight and then had to treat my wounds and now you gotta watch me. Well, you don't have to, but you do." She looked back up at Ela. Her eyes were cleared and she stared straight at the dragon. Blood crusted around her lips from the night before and had turned the bandages and the fur around a dark, dark red.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:10 am
(Yayyy *claps*)
09 Apr, 2017, 5:11 am
I have Osteoporosis
Lona was walking and singing along the plain of Sylore.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:16 am
"At least your child could have the benefit of hands every once in a while," Raven hissed as Ela took off the bandages. Even though it had just been one night, it was enough time for the blood to be stuck to both bandage and fur, and some of the wounds reopened slightly as their fabric cover was torn away. The Zeraxi winced. /This is worse than when I was blown off the cliff,/ she thought.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:19 am
Wel not yet but yee wl have one when i draw er.
she is a two tailed fox with two red and green gems under her eyes
09 Apr, 2017, 5:22 am
(No problem!)
"For having me crash on the ground twice, I guess it's acceptable damage," she said calmly, half joking. "You could've bitten me till I was nothing more than prey, use those fancy blades on your tail to slice me in pieces, you know, the usual."
09 Apr, 2017, 5:26 am
"Wonderful. More material to waste on a dying animal," she barked softly. No one had cared for her this much, not since Adain. /I hope you're not looking for me,/ she thought, looking up at the sky. "How the heck did I get here?" She thought aloud.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:27 am
(Raven has a lot of sarcasm™™™™®®©©)
09 Apr, 2017, 5:33 am
"Wish I could get back. Even if only two out there care, it's two and that's enough reason for me." She kept looking up at the sky. The bird still sat sleeping, long tail now curled around his body. "You ever miss your murderous dragon-human?" Raven asked after a while of silence. "I mean, you ARE her mother, after all." She looked over at Ela, head still facing the clouds.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:36 am

"Trust hasn't been my thing but I know I only injure if they're hurting me so I'm sure she's got a damn good reason for it." Her gaze became distant and unfocused again and her breathing ragged. "You had a good reason to toss me against the ground. I tried clawing your eyes out." One of her paws shook slightly. "That fox had a good reason to fight me until I collapsed. I took his prey, after all." She closed her eyes.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:52 am
"Don't go walking too fast," Raven growled. As she struggled to stand, she whacked the bird with the black-tipped tail and he awoke with a parrot-like squawk.
09 Apr, 2017, 5:58 am
Raven smirked back. "I never said anything about friendship. I was just sayin that you're trying to rush your life. Also the fact that I can barely even stand." She dug her claws into the ground for support and took tentative steps forward, breathing shallow, fast breaths.
09 Apr, 2017, 6:01 am
(Ahhh yes, writing stories at 2am. This is normal tbh)
09 Apr, 2017, 6:05 am
"I've dealt with enough physical limitations to know that mental limitafions are what you gotta watch out for," the canine sat down, showing off the tufts of dark blue mane that weren't covered in bandaging. "Not my first time falling off a cliff. And besides, this time I actually have medical assistance." She said everything in a calm voice, words swinging together as if every sentence was a song of spite and sarcasm.

09 Apr, 2017, 6:14 am
"Nah. But when I was hissing in your ear standing on your head you were high up enough to be a cliff." She gave her a cold, blank stare. "But this time it wasn't some stupid wind. Nope, it was a dragon."
09 Apr, 2017, 6:22 am
"Outlawed birds!" The bluejay piped up, landing on one of Raven's antlers. She laughed, and even with her breath messed up her laughter ran clear like bells. She tried standing and stretched a little. One bone gave a nasty pop as she stretched and she locked herself in that position. "Welp. Guess I'm stuck now. I deserve this," she muttered. A little more blood stained the bandage near the bone that had made the noise.
09 Apr, 2017, 6:29 am
Ahhh colors crashes.
Also did i forget to mention she mayyy or may notttt have broken a ribbbb
09 Apr, 2017, 6:35 am
(Yeah my bad xP)
"Great," she sighed. "Add it to the list, I guess."
09 Apr, 2017, 6:39 am
Raven shrugged. "Like I said, I probably deserve it." She winked slightly, trying to hide her pain. "I can still breathe n stuff though." She took a step forward as if to prove her point.
09 Apr, 2017, 6:39 am
(also it might be a good idea for me to stop soon.. Im really tired now)
09 Apr, 2017, 6:41 am
She only shrugged again in return, eyes darkening.

09 Apr, 2017, 1:23 pm
Aww don't worry about it Day!
And thanks ash aaaaaa i had fun developing mine as well, and don't worry you just gotta write a ton. The main way i can get away with writing a ton with barely any dialouge is because i always enjoyed being able to picture the scenes i was reading while still being able to read at a fairly fast pace. You can tell when I'm not sure what to add or I'm losing some of the writing feel because my entries get shorter x'D
10 Apr, 2017, 12:22 pm
Don't worry Day, I'm glad you got some rest instead! ^-^
