( Armageddidn't: I wanna see a pic!) (@angelfur: What about it?) Catori blinked her amber eyes. “Big bird attacked?” The wolf raised her twitching black nose to the air and drew in the scent of the scorched landscape. “Fire?” She guessed. Catori didn’t know of any birds of giant size, or any bird that could use fire and heat. This was all immensely baffling to her, and a little alarming. What if it returned? The thought made the hackles rise along her nape. |

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost."  (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you."  Corynn just leaned against the counter as she started eating, "What do you thing of everyone so far to have shown up here?" She asked curiously.
Kyra was too distracted with her own plate of food to have noticed any movement happening around her.
Asher shrugged. She wouldn't press the idea since it was really her place to do so. She slowly looked around not noticing anything wrong because she was wondering if there were others like her here or if they only lived on earth. Or her home. |

Aurora didn’t immediately answer. It wasn’t the first time such a question had been presented to her, for those that knew she lived at the castle before the others. She took a bite of her food and chewed slowly and thoughtfully. After swallowing, she turned to look at Corynn. “Peter was the first, and I didn’t trust him. I thought humans were dangerous, evil creatures and I didn’t want him here. But I let him stay because of a storm, and… well, one day turned into many days, and he ended up becoming like a brother to me. It was weird, having other people around when I was used to living alone, but… I like it.” She trailed off and resumed her meal. Before the other residents had started showing up, needing a place to stay, Aurora hadn’t realized how lonely she was. She found herself grateful every day for the company, and hoped that she never had to live alone again.
The large, eagle-like bird never made a sound as it swooped down, grabbed hold of something small on Peter’s shoulder with its talons, and swiftly swept upwards again into the treetops. It happened so quickly that Peter hardly had any time to react. His eyes bugged out of his head and he released a cry of horror.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Corynn nodded. "Sometimes, it can be the strangers we meet, that make the best family to have." She said with a soft smile. While thinking for the family she had made for herself.
Asher had completely froze when she felt something grab onto her. After a moment though she started to freak out, "Look,
mister birds... I wouldn't be tasty... I'm small and stringy." She managed to say with hiccups interrupting. |

Aurora didn’t answer. She was thinking back to her own family, and the unfortunate circumstances that had befallen her parents -- the only real ‘family’ she ever knew. As far as Aurora was concerned, family could be anyone. She had no real concept of blood relatives. Peter was just as much a brother to her as though they shared the same parents. A smile alighted her face and she agreed with Corynn. “How did you find this place?” She decided to ask.
Having heard someone yell in fear -- which wasn’t easy, being hard of hearing -- Hannah did the oh-so-smart thing and came tumbling out of the RV, red and gold katana in hand. She saw Peter clutching a struggling animal, and looking skyward as though the world were coming to an end. “What’s going on--” She barely had a chance to ask her question before the boy was shoving the kitten into her arms and tearing off in the opposite direction.
Peter kept his eyes focused on where the large bird had went, his feet leaving the ground mid-run. Tree branches zipped past his face in a blur, a few of them cutting into the skin on his face. He flew as quickly as he could, and by some stroke of luck, caught up with the oversized eagle-like avian. “Hold on!” He shouted to Asher. Peter retrieved a small device from his pocket, something that superficially resembled an ink pen, and fired once at the animal. A small, red laser shot from the tip and stunned the bird. It took two more blasts before the hungry predator relinquished its prey. Peter let the laser fall from his hand and dove at a downward angle toward Asher.

Adrian sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. One ear flicked. " I didn't know my dad either. My mom was a workaholic so it was usually me that took care of myself and my sister."

"Meh." Adrian shrugged. "I just hope my sister is doing OK. She was staying with one of her friends the last time I saw her so she probably just stayed with her when I went missing..." The more he talked about his sister the more he missed her. [OOF what if she showed up in heroes?]

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Talent." Corynn answered with a shrug. She looked towards Kyra as she started to lay down to nap off the full tummy. She smiled softly thinking about Kyra before looking back towards Aurora. "But I am thankful I did get here. For Kyra's sake." She added softly.
Asher had frozen again when she started falling. This was definitely a bad day now. She barely registered that Peter had said anything to her. |

Aurora looked up as Corynn mentioned being thankful for arriving for the sake of her canine companion. “What do you mean by that?” She asked, eyebrows furrowed curiously as she glanced over at the lazy husky.
Peter swooped downward, arms straight out and hands scambling like mad for his tiny, falling friend. He just barely managed to catch her, about fifteen feet above the ground, and halted in mid-air. “Are you alright?!” The boy gently held her in his hands and tried to examine her for any obvious signs of injury.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Corynn looked up, "Well, I was about to be homeless. On Earth people have to pay to live anywhere, and I didn't make enough money to afford any place." She answered softly before chuckling, "Most people on Earth are greedy." She added.
Asher completely ignored the question about her well being and instead answered with her own question, "You can fly?" which it could also be heard that she was slightly sad at the word 'fly'. |

Aurora was fortunate enough to not understand what homelessness was. The concept of having to pay for things was equally as alien. Her time on Earth was brief, and with what she’d learned and went though, Aurora never cared to visit the place ever again. “That is… terrible. I’m glad that you and Kyra were able to find this place.” Auroa paused to take a bite of food, chewing slowly with a thoughtful expression. “I went to Earth a few moons ago, but it’s not a place I ever want to go back to.”
Peter nodded his head in response before landing softly on the ground, still holding Asher in his cupped hands. “Yeah. Are you hurt?” He asked, eyebrows furrowing with worry. It didn’t appear as though his small friend was injured, but then again, he couldn’t tell. At the very least she appeared to be in shock. That was to be expected with what the predatory bird had done.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Don't blame you on that one." Corynn said in a slightly cold tone. She may have been born and raised on Earth but it never fully felt like home. At least she had her family that she had made.
"Everyone can fly but me. Some kind of fairy I am." Asher muttered dejectedly and crossed her arms. |

Aurora sighed and nodded in agreement. “Well, you should have no need for any worries here. This is… a fairly safe place, and you are welcome to stay for as long as you like. That is, if you don’t mind living alongside magical creatures.” A small smile hinted.
Peter looked on the verge of saying something, when Asher’s words caused him to freeze. He stared down at the tiny girl as though seeing her for the first time. Shock and disbelief entered into his green eyes. “You’re… a-a what?” Surely he hadn’t heard her correctly. Right?

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Oh, I don't mind werewolves, vampires, fae, or any of the other types. Heck, people use to call me a witch a lot, though I prefer Wiccan." Corynn answered unfazed by the suggestion.
Asher looked down realizing she made a mistake by not being careful with her words. "F-Fairy." she muttered nervous now about how Peter might react. |

Aurora’s eyebrows rose at some of the things that Corynn mentioned. She, of course, knew what werewolves and vampires were, but she’d never before heard the term ‘fae’ or ‘witch’ or ‘Wiccan’. “What’s a fae?” She decided to ask first. Aurora didn’t realize that her mother had, technically, been something very similar.
Peter blinked a few times before slowly returned Asher to his shoulder. He was in such a state of surprise that he hadn’t even considered the possibility of his friend being snatched up again. “Oh… What else is there at your home… besides fairies, and… pirates?” The boy chose his words carefully.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "It's a general term for Elves, fairies, goblins, changelings, sprites, and so on." Corynn explained with a smile.
"Well, there use to be a tribe of humans. Oh and the Lost Boys. And mermaids." Asher answered with a sigh, "Tink says the Lost boy went back to the main land to grow up. The tribe of humans went into hiding. As has the mermaids. She also thinks the fairies magic is fading and that I'm proof since I done have wings." She added softly. |

The only species that Aurora recongized from the list were elves, of course. She also thought she remembered Peter mentioning that his tiny bug-like friend was a ‘sprite’. The corner of her mouth pulled into a smile. “My mother was an elf.” She paused to consider something else that Corynn had said. “What did you mean by witch and Wiccan?” The terms were unfamiliar.
Peter slowly rested his back against a tree and listened in stark silence. Some color seeped from his face. It felt like he suddenly had a weight in his stomach; one that left him feeling a little sick. He recalled the movie he’d watched while in the Earth hospital. The brightly colored film had left him shaken, but he’d mostly put it out of his mind since then. Peter released a sigh. “I think I know where you’re from… I didn’t think it really existed.” As a name was mention, a knot of worry formed that he couldn’t quite explain. “W-what do you think is causing all of that?” He had a theory, but it made no sense to him.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." (OOC)
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "A witch is just a general term for someone who can do magic. A Wiccan is someone who does magic to help people in any way necessary. Most of the time people confuse a white witch with a Wiccan. Which is wrong because a white witch usually only does healing spells and potions." Corynn explained and ended up quickly cutting herself off. The types of magic were one of the things she could talk about for hours without getting bored.
"Well, Queen Clarion believes that everything has to do with me because a fairy should only have one talent and all fairies have wings unless they give them up. Every fairy is born from a babies first laugh. But me. I can do every fairy talent that exists, plus my own talent. I never had wings. And I was born from a deaf baby hearing it's parents for the first time but it wasn't the babies first laugh." Asher answered as if she had been over all that before to figure it all out herself. |

Recognition entered into Aurora’s gaze and she nodded. At least she did know what magic was. Sort of. She knew that most of the castle’s special functions worked because of magic, even if she didn’t understand how it worked. Something immediately got her attention. “Healing spells? You mean, there’s magic that can heal?” Both eyebrows shot up with interest.
Peter slipped into a brief daze as though recollecting something. “It makes sense… but I’m sure it’s not your fault. Is… Is that why you came here? Were the others blaming you for all of it?” Even though he hadn’t known the girl -- fairy -- for very long, he disliked the thought of anyone mistreating or outcasting her.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." "Well, I'm sure there is a spell for just about everything. But yeah, there are a lot of different healing spells." Corynn answered with a chuckle.
"Well, not exactly. I left trying to figure out why I'm so different. And to see about changing things for the better." Asher partly answered. What she didn't mention was her talent and what it had to do about leaving her home. |

(I think I’ll continue with Loki on the next page. If it gets close to completion before 400, I’ll just pause it again. I like making really memorable posts on 100 pages, because they’re easier to find and reread.)
Aurora mulled over this new information as she took another bite of food. “That could really be of use here. Do you know how to do it?” She asked as she looked up.
Peter nodded slowly. At least she hadn’t had to leave her home under the same or similar reasons as he had. “So… you said you could do every ‘talent’, plus your own? What’s your own like?”
Meanwhile, within the nearby RV, Hannah was cuddling the cute little kitten that had been left in her care. The feline reminded her of another but she tried not to dwell on it. For all she knew, none of it was real. Though, it certainly felt like it was… She wondered if any more of her friends had found their way to the world.

"Only you can believe all is lost but I know with time, nothing is lost." OK!
"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Corynn gave a shrug, "I haven't really done a whole lot of magic. But yeah I know some. Though Claudia would be the better person to ask since she is trained in all forms of magic." She added.
"I-Its hard to describe. I get images of places or people that will mean something. But I don't know when or where." Asher answered softly. She has always felt weird talking about her talent because it, like everything else about her, was different and unusual. |
