Flight of the Dragon (1x1 w/ wolfgirl2398)
Forum-Index → Roleplay → Private RP → Flight of the Dragon (1x1 w/ wolfgirl2398)Adeline looked up and simply stared at Rogue. Her face was neither sympathetic or apathetic; it was neutral. Rogue stole a quick glance at her and almost squirmed under her pressing gaze. Does she always have that electricity in her eyes? He thought, biting his lip.
Her gaze lightened after a little bit and she stared at him less intensely, "You'd best be careful about that. It could cause some real damage."
Ah. She knows. He simply gave her a reassuring, half-hearted smile in reply. Most dragons would feel like their safety was jeopardized in the face of an unstable halfling, but Adeline... she gave him a look of trust, somehow.

''suit yourself... anyway, i'm gonna go hit the gym'' he said, heading off to his room to collect up his stuff and change.
Adriane sighed and laid her head back, closing her eye's to rest for a bit.
''just don't hurt yourself Matthew'' she said.

''how are you feeling.....? i seen you bouncing around out there when you were talking to Adeline... i'm guessing that curse keep's your emotion's literally locked up'' she said.
There was a rattling at the door and Raven popped up to take a look out the window, a confused look sprawling across his face. "I don't know who that is," he mumbled, throwing the pillow to the side and leaping to his feet. A girl stood in the doorway fiddling with the keys and seemed frustrated after she had dropped them about four times. She scooped up the keys and knocked instead.
Raven glanced at Adriane and decided to open it, standing still and facing her. She looked up and her eyes widened, and for a moment she was frozen in shock--she quickly smiled and stuck out her hand, speaking a bit too quickly. "Oh, hello there! You must be new around here... at least, I don't recall seeing you here before. My name is Wisteria--er, Wisty. A pleasure to meet you."
Raven took her hand, shook it, and timidly mumbled his name before disappearing back to his spot on the couch. Wisty closed the door behind her and turned to Adriane, sighing. "Would it be alright if I stayed here for a while? Things aren't going great right now."

''it's alright Raven... she's a friend, and sure Wisty, your always welcome to crash here anytime'' she said, talking to Raven at first then switched over to Wisteria afterward's.
she then turned back to Raven and her eye's gleamed.
''and that's great Raven, i'm glad i could help you... it must be like a big weight has been lifted'' she said.
Matthew soon walked back out wearing a plain tank top and a jacket and sweatpants and still wearing his sneakers, a bag slung over his shoulder as he looked over.
''hey Wisteria, can't stay for long cause i'm heading out, but it's nice to see ya Wisty, Crystal's in her room if you want to go bug her'' he said, walking past her and ruffled her hair a bit as he headed out the door.
After a while she softly said, "I could help heal that, if you'd like. I'm not the best healer, but I could do a little incantation." Wisty fretted, but didn't ask what happened--she knew it was best not to--and instead worried about the healing.
Raven sat, unmoving, in his seat. Wisty was a stranger to him and that was more than enough to revert him back to his silent mode--she glanced at him from the corner of her eye and seemed a little bit on the edge by his presence but tried her best to ignore it.

Adriane leaned forward and moved the ice pack off her leg and laid back again, gritting her teeth slightly.
''the client i had to meet today is no longer a client after the stunt he pulled today, and Raven saved me so i'm alright... his clubbed tail caught my leg as he ran off after he got his final order from me'' she said, simply just explaining what happened to her leg.
"I do hope you stay a little bit more careful about your clients, yeah? I'm not one to judge, but still... I don't want you getting hurt." She ran her fingers across Adriane's ankle and murmured a soft incantation, a warm glow emitting from her palms.
A bright rune seemed to etch into Adriane's skin and Wisty flexed her fingers a bit in a knitting motion, continuing this for a few seconds before opening her eyes. The light from the rune ebbed away and her hands had returned to normal; her eyes snapped open and she looked at the leg with semi-satisfaction.
"That should be good. Come to me if it still hurts, okay?" She said, a bit more brightly. Wisty leaped back to her feet and offered a smile. The idea of violence, in general, put her on the edge, but the fact that it was directed towards Adriane... well, she'd rather not think about it.
Wisty looked over and locked gazes with Raven--who had unintentionally been staring at her--and smiled warmly. He instead snapped his head away and seemed to shrink back into his throw pillow, to which Wisty felt a pang of empathy. She rocked back and forth on her heels a bit before looking over her shoulder at the hallway thoughtfully. "I'm going to go say hello to Crystal," she said, walking off.

''that feel's a lot better actually....'' she muttered, leaning back in the recliner now.
she looked over at Raven and her gaze softened, a little worried about him.
''Raven.... i know your not used to being social with strangers, but the other hybrids here are friendly and will help out no matter the cost... we've all had hard time's in the past, but what matter's now is what's ahead of us, and your now free from the curse and you've been opened up to a whole world of possibilities now'' she said, smiling warmly as her eye's gleamed with a cheerful glow.
Adriane sat up in the recliner and brought the footrest down, then stood up on her good leg and tested out her now healed leg, flinching slightly since it was still rather tender.
''darn... the pain's still there, but i don't feel the fracture anymore at least.. hey, how about you help me to the pool, you can come swim with me too.. i'm sure Matthew wouldn't mind letting you barrow one of his spare swim trunks and tank top, you both look like you'd be the same size'' she said.
~~~~~
Crystal sat in her room, finally awake after her little nap and realizing she had been put in there, listening to music on her phone and scribbled some little doodles into a sketchbook, being bored out of her mind and figuring she'd stay in her room since she behaved rather horribly to the cottage's guests and Matthew.
"I... think I have a spare something somewhere. I'll go check in a bit," he said, walking slowly again so that Adriane could keep up. He seemed a bit more careful than usual as if he would hurt her by accident. He made it to the door and leaned forward a bit to open it. The moment Raven saw the pool he was reminded of how much he disliked swimming (although he kept quiet for Adriane).
-------
Wisty took a small breath before knocking on the door. She had hardly realized that the five knocks she made were in tune with her humming--she did that pretty often--and backed away from the door slightly while she waited for a response. She fretted slightly when Crystal didn't answer immediately but told herself that she was just nervous and suppressed it.

~~~~~
Crystal perked up a bit and looked over at the door, closing her sketchbook and hid it, pausing her music for the moment.
''door is open'' she said, loud enough for whoever was at her door.
Adeline poked her head over the border of her top bunk, "Yo."
"My scars aren't... disturbing, are they?"
She blinked sharply as if taken aback by his question. "No. Of course not. They're part of your past and that's... well, no. your past isn't exactly pleasant. But they're not surprising and they're not disturbing--anyone who tells you different can reckon with me. Besides, Adriane's a really considerate person."
He paused and turned his head to look back at her, "You sure?"
"Course. She's totally into you, anyway."
"What do you mean?"
"Ah, nothing. Go have fun."
Raven disregarded this and waved at Adeline as he walked back over to the pool, bouncing on his feet a bit.
----------
Wisty opened the door and walked in, making sure to shut it behind her (she knew how Crystal was with privacy) and smiled brightly. "Hello," she sang, brushing her hair out of her face.

she was already changed and back in her human form by the time Raven returned, now wearing her hair down instead of up, and wearing a simple forest green one-piece swimsuit that had a skirt on it that was a slightly darker green.
she perked up and looked over at the entrance as she heard the door creak and waved.
~~~~~
Crystal smiled and chuckled a little.
''hey Wisp, how have you been?'' she asked.
"Do you think," he said, "it'd be best if you had a guard along with you for your next few... uh, clients?"
-------
"It, uh... it could be better. Taking a break from home right now. Oh, I saw the other guests." Wisty's mood improved slightly at the change of subjects, "They're new, I'm guessing. How's it going with them?"

she sat up and straightened, looking down at the water as her hair hid her face a bit.
''but if you weren't there to help me, i... i don't know what i would've done if he actually got away with his plan'' she said, bringing up her uninjured leg and hugged it tightly to her chest, trembling slightly.
~~~~~
''well at least your safe... and yeah, there's actually four new hybrids staying here... i sorta went off since i was worried about Adriane, since she went with that darkness dragon Raven.. i kinda snapped when she came back injured and quickly assumed and blamed him for it, but kinda got yelled at for it after explanations and stuff like that.... but the rest isn't too important after that, and now i'm in my room sort of just hiding in my room for now'' Crystal said.
He slipped into the pool and began to trek, keeping his head above the surface. It was terribly cold and his face reflected this. He flipped to his back instead and floated there harmlessly, his arms spread out as he stared up at the ceiling. Raven drifted away slightly but let himself drift, his face almost peaceful.
-------
"Oh, geez... four?... Ah, well. I hope they're nice... although the darkness dragon is a bit scary..." She shrugged and twirled the front bit of her hair a little bit, her eyes sparkling as she cocked her head a little bit. "Would it be alright if I hid with you?"

she carefully made her way into the water down the steps and floated a bit, making sure she had her footing with her good leg and sighed, shivering as the cold water pricked at her skin.
''the first time stepping into the pool is always going to be cold'' she said, hugging her self as she stayed put where she was for the moment.
~~~~~~
''one's gone off a while ago, the other one is in his room probably brooding or something'' Crystal said.
she cleared a spot beside her and cleared the table a bit, smiling and nodding.
''sure, i don't mind at all Wisp'' she chuckled.
------
Wisteria happily took the spot that Crystal had cleared off for her, sitting in a crisscross position with her back straight. "What about the fourth one?" She asked, twirling her hair a bit.

she swam over to where he was and splashed him with a little water, giggling quietly.
''besides, if i need any help i know you'd come help me..'' she muttered.
~~~~~~
''the fourth one is a cross breed hybrid, she's a water and fire hybrid, left to go do something'' Crystal said.
