Xenia (Eos) Plate full of cookies
« on: September 19, 2008, 08:35:29 AM »

The lightfoot know to most of the Nexus as AElf, appears without warning,(or conscious thought)  in mid pacing, at an unoccupied section of beach on a barely inhabited island belonging to Eos in the territory of Xenia

“Ok, ok calm down, maybe it isn’t what you think…”  she says to herself. “You’ve been gone for ever and a day after all.”  Ten paces out the lightfoot pivots and starts back to her point of origin,  “I mean so what if he’s changed his wardrobe to black… That isn’t a big thing, right?”  AElf flicks her right hand an a plate of cookies appears hovering in the air at the mid point of her pacing track “Really what’s the favorite color of the nexus anyway when it comes to clothing?.  It’s black.  Or it was when I was last here.  Anyway Luke Skywalker wore black, so it really could just be a new fashion statement.  Light I hate being out of the loop!”

 In her next pass the lightfoot plucks a cookie off the plate and starts nibbling it as she continues, “I need help.  I really really need help.  Who can I ask for help? ….”  She pauses as she finishes off the cookie and sighs …  “No one.  They’re all busy with other things.  ‘Ditzy AElf doing it again’… that’s all I need….”   

Several more rounds of pacing pass in thought and cookie eating  “Neutral ground?” the lightfoot suggests to herself  “Maybe I can talk to Hyran on neutral ground and ask him?  … I Don’t  * KNOW * any neutral ground!”  A long dejected sigh comes from the lightfoot “Oh who am I kidding?  If something went wrong he’d smear me in the ground anyway.”   AElf sighs again,   “ not that is saying much,  -Anyone- can smear me into the ground without batting an eye.”

Another several passes of the hovering cookie plate minus an equal amount of cookies.
. “So… all I have to do it find someone who really knows Hyran, and talk to them, before going into a full out panic attack.  So who can I talk to? “  AElf stops at the pivot point and looks down at the half eaten cookie   “I don’t want to talk to the Otter!   He and his whole clan hate me. They don’t believe I am who I am!”  she turns and continues her circuit “There’s Amanda.  But she and I don’t get along on SOOO many levels…and anyway I’ll need the otters help to get to her.”

“You know what your problem is AElf.” AElf lectures herself “ You care too damn much about people.  You have GOT to learn not to care anymore.  It’s only gotten you more heartache and pain then you could deal with.  So stop caring!  Right this instant!  So what if you think Hyran is in trouble, he doesn’t need your help. He never has.  No one ever has. Hyran’s a big boy he can take care of himself, right?”

The elf’s shoulder slump “But if I stop caring” her voice so soft that it could be lost in a breeze “Then I would not be me.”

AElfgivu Germegath Smith sits down on the warm beach, the more the half empty plate of cookies drops down as well to be in perfect reaching distant from her.  Closing her eyes the lightfoot centers herself and opens up a link she has hardly touched, seeking an otter of stars and cookies    :: Crafty:: she calls out the name though MUDD ::I need to talk to you, alone, please.  It’s important.::

The trees whisper soothingly to the distraught elf.

::Ssshhh... Ssshhh... You are safe. You are always safe here. Ssshhh...::

The wind blows through her hair softly.

"Neutral ground is surprisingly hard to come by nowadays, you know."  Felegro's call carries itself on the breeze, and seems much clearer than it should have been at his distance.  He walks up from the ocean area where he appears to have been taking a swim.  He's dressed in a swimsuit that looks, if such a thing were possible, as if it were tailored.  He doesn't dry off, but by the time he gets to her, he's dry.  He looks around, and not finding the t-shirt he would have sworn he put there a minute ago, conjures himself a new one with a wave of his arms.

"One way or another," he says, "you have to pick a side.  Myself, I prefer my own side.  No one spills my secrets but me.  Anyway, if you're looking for Andromache, I'm sure she's in her beach house or something... unless I can help?"  He seems uncertain, ready to head off if she hints that he's unwelcome.

The little otter, almost quite certainly not there a moment ago, squeaks agreeably. He reaches for a cookie, glancing casually around, taking in the beach and sea with a look of otterish satisfaction.*
~hello AElf it's good to see you what can i do for you today you have a nice beach here are there fish in your ocean I like fish too not as much as cookies but then again cookies can't swim and dodge and that is half the fun of fish so what do you need to talk to me alone about is Felegro bothering you he isn't really bad most of the time it's just that he is still not used to animals and the relationships we have with our environments it is very different from what trees have did you make these cookies they are pretty good fish in rivers taste better than fish in oceans don't you agree I'll bet Ki'bo agrees but then again he is a falcon and he usually disagrees with me on general principle so i will just tell him ocean fish taste better than river fish and he will say that river fish taste better and then i will agree with him and that will settle that hey look a seashell do you think there are seamonsters here?~

The whispers of the trees relax the elf as she waits for a certain furry mammal to make his appearance, so the undignified yelp of alarm at the total unexpected voice should not be all that surprising coming from AElf as she shoots back up to her feet in better judge the situation as the newcomer approached her.

Before the lightfoot can make a response the otter suddenly appears.  “Crafty” AElf says in relief at seeing the critter; her eyes going from the otter to the Helvetia recognizing the name if not the being. “No, he isn’t bothering me at the moment. I was just under the impression that Eos’s island was pretty much deserted save for the cabin in the woods. He just startled me.  Kibo prefers river fish and I do need to ask you something, privately.”

Crafty blinks solemnly, and gives a long squeaky whistle.*
~should I call for an army to guard us so we can have privacy or wait I know I am a smart otter we can do it this way~

"....uh.... so, you want privacy, but I'm not bothering you.  Does that mean I'm invited to stay?"

Crafty nods, thoughtfully, and holds out a cookie toward Felegro. He keeps his eyes on AElf, however.

Felegro takes a cookie with a roll of his eyes, and eats it mostly to prove he's not one of Crafty's chaos wolves.

“I suppose so” AElf answers Felegro “This isn’t my land so it really isn’t up to me whether you stay or not.  It’s an open territory if I understand things right.”

The Lightfoot sits back down to be more at an eye level with Crafty, concerned touching her eyes

Felegro looks like he's about to ask another question, then shuts his mouth with a shrug and sits down as well.

~it's a Domain actually Da Weasel said it has enforcement geese so you can't willingly hurt another here or you get bounced out but you can still get hurt by accident he thinks so watch out for sharp rocks and things like that it's controlled by Andromache Hyran says she is erratic but she has had cookies I've seen it so she won't hurt you and she said it's open to all it's even the emergency evac center in case the Nexus catches on fire again I think because of all the oceans here~

AElf gives the otter a smile and then looks serious again

 “ Territory, Domain…  it’s all part of the nexus claimed and cared for by individual avatars.  Let an old timer have some eccentricities. Anyway even if Andromache controls the ‘domain’, I have it on very good authority that this particular island belongs to Eos.”

The little otter looks dubiously around, and chirps questioningly.*
~does eos have enforcement geese also I've never seen them they are either invisible or really fast because Da Weasel is never wrong about things like that Mr. The Duck is really fast too do you think he knows them do you think they have uniforms maybe they want to join the NDF and help Cutthroat~

“I don’t know. The Trees did not say and I did not ask”  AElf states looking much more relaxed then when she first popped in on the beach.  “Thanks for talking with me Crafty” the lightfoot tells the otter as she reaches out to scritch behind the otter’s ear, where otters really like to be scratched.  “If things change and he needs help let me know, alright?” there is a slight pause in thought “And He really doesn’t need to know about our talk, ok?
