"New erson" Summer asked from her spot in the tree. She smiled softly. "I remember the feeling. The name's Summer." She hopped down from the branch. "Summer Rivers." She held out a skeletal hand for a handshake.
{{Sorry that it's kinda short.}

Ibis jumped back. "Ah!! Y-your hand, are you okay??" He asked, concern in his eyes, glancing between her hand and looking back at her.

"It's just a hand. It's fine." Summer shrugged. "So, are we gonna shake hands, or?"

Ibis slowly reached out, his long feathered wings shaking a bit. He grasped her hand and gently shook it. "I-I'm Ibis. I'm sorry, I've never really seen any other creatures besides my own kind, and the predators..." he said, giving a weak smile. He looked down at his wing, noticing how damaged his feathers were. He sighed. "Do you know anyone who could help me? I just need somewhere to rest. I can work for food..." he sighed again "...though I guess it'll be ground work for now. I can't fly until I molt these broken feathers..."

"When the lockdown is over, you can go inside the castle, but for now, we can't get in." Summer shrugged."I just found that out the hard way." she added wit a short laugh. "I guess we've got a SKELE-TON of time before it's over."

Ibis wanted to laugh, but he gave a slight moan of pain. "I'm sorry, that was funny, but I just don't feel to great right now.." he said, giving a cough. A fleck of purple blood splattered onto his beak, and he wiped it away. "Do you know where I could at least get some rest? Anywhere will do as long as I can walk..."

"No, not really right now, but you can stick with me if you want to be safe at least." Summer stated.

Ibis nodded. "Okay, thanks. I appreciate it." He said, then looked at the castle. "How come there's... solid air around it?" He asked as he started preening his flight feathers, hoping he could salvage them.

Kiba looked at her and said," fine but it won't be as taste as when I get it myself."

Alice shurgged. "I guess you could say that." At Skaldi's second question, the giel went quiet for a few moments - obviously trying to think of a way to phrase how she was going to say it. "No." She shook her head. "I was human at first. Nothing special really. Until something went wrong in a lab i was visiting with my cat. After the accident my cat was gone, and i had these" She pointed to the cat ears on her head and her sleek brown tabby tail. "It was something entirely new for the people back at my homeplace. Those stupid scientists were working on all other crazy experiments. It's also where i met Cosmos." The girl rubbed her arm.

Peter carefully pried Adonis from his shoulder and gently set the kitten on the counter. Adonis’ short tail twitched and spun around a few times, as though checking his balance. The pale gray, spotted feline turned toward Kyra and stretched his neck out, bobbing his head a few times as he sniffed. Once Peter was sure the young cat wasn’t going to suddenly run, he knelt down so that Asher could climb from his shoulder to the countertop. As El announced her presence with a greeting, Peter glanced back with a grin, “Hey El!” “I used to have a lot of nicknames too, and my replacement has even more! How’d you get the nicknames Tom and John?” DG tilted her head and gave a scratch behind her ear, as though sorely confused. “Well, at least you won’t be hungry.” Aurora pointed out. She frowned at Berserker’s unconscious form. There wasn’t much she could do for him until he came around. He was too heavy to carry back to the castle. “Are you alright, Catori?” Satisfied with the wolf’s slight nod of her head, Aurora turned and started to lead the way back. Skaldi nodded slowly throughout much of Alice’s explanation. They had no idea what a ‘lab’ or ‘scientists’ were, or who this ‘Cosmos’ was. One thing was for certain, however. There weren’t many things that could cause a human girl to spontaneously sprout animal ears and a tail, and Skaldi was sure that magic was involved somehow. Magic was as commonplace as oxygen among huldras and needn’t be further explained. “Who is Cosmos?” Skaldi decided to ask. (That’s Skaldi’s answer for everything. If it’s weird and can’t be easily understood, it must be magic. lol) (The barrier will be set back to its normal setting ASAP!  ) |

(Hey, sorry for that long absence. My mother had gotten sick and as she was getting better my father actually got sick. Both of them had only gotten the flu but once they were both better I had gotten sick and actually ended up in the hospital with pneumonia. Could I get a recap of what I missed?)

Aurora momentarily marvelled at how Kiba and Damocles were able to pull several times their weight. Being a werewolf, she wasn’t weak, but she doubted she’d be able to pull a creature several times her size even in her other form. With a nod, she hastened her pace to the castle, Catori hot on her heels. It felt… weird, being unable to leave the clearing at will.
(Aurora, Catori, Kiba and Berserker are inside the dome currently, but that’ll be resolved soon and everybody can pass in and out again. I’m probably gonna slow down on my posting here until then, since I’m trying specifically to RP something on page 400 and I don’t want the RP to reach the page before I’m ready. lol)
(It’s fine Wolfsbane, I’m sorry you went through that. After the fight with Cosmos, he went to terrorize the elves. Not much happened for a while, and then a bounty hunter from Asgard showed up to try to take Loki back. He hurt Raja pretty badly, then chased him and Morgan and Loki back to the castle. Clip, a character with powers over barrier magic, sealed the barrier before the hunter could get through. Loki killed the hunter, but he’s trapped outside the barrier, which is on lockdown mode. Nobody can get in or out right now.)

Ibis nodded. "Okay, thanks. I appreciate it." He said, then looked at the castle. "How come there's... solid air around it?" He asked as he started preening his flight feathers, hoping he could salvage them. "Magic. Ancient magic. At least, that's what I've heard." Summer answered. |

Ibis looked a bit surprised. "Magic exists?" He asked excitedly, then, realizing how he was acting, grabbed another feather and continued to preen as he spoke. "I mean, we talked about magic and stuff at my nest, but... I didn't really know it was a thing anymore."

Summer scoffed softly. "Magic is how my hands work." she stated. "How else would it work anyways?"

"I don't even know who that is! But it doesn't matter, having someone like that in here is only going to end badly. At some point his darkness will come out, and everyone around him will suffer greatly." Clip glanced back at the barrier. He released the bubble on Loki, but kept the lockdown in effect. Letting this guy in screamed bad news. But why should that matter to him? He could keep himself safe, and he owed nothing to these people. "If he wants back in then he has to pay me."

If Loki was feeling grateful over being released from the imprisoning bubble, he really had a funny way of showing it. He strode over to the edge of the barrier and slammed his fist against it. “I shall not pay you anything. This is my home.” The trickster practically snarled through the shield. His eyes had gone a brighter shade of green and his jaw was tightly clenched together.

"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."  "What sort of payment?" Morgan asked curiously.
Runa raised an eyebrow at Morgan before glancing at Sabrina. |

Clip frowned, he took a few steps away from Loki just to be safe. "Sweets. Candy, or pastries." He gave a toothy grin at Runa. The other demons had darker and bigger desires. War, death, treasure, lust... whatever they first met in the human world. It tainted them, became on obsession of what life should be. And for Clip, life was sweet.

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Morgan blinked before laughing, "OK than. Allow me to help with that. You let my grandfather in and I'll introduce you to the best cook and baker to ever live. And she'd be delighted to bake or cook whatever sweets you want." She said with a chuckle.
"Do you mean Claudia?" Raja asked though felt sure he was right. And he also was starting to feel a little dizzy. |

Loki was silent throughout the bargaining, his eyes boring figurative holes through Clip. Had it not been for Raja’s injuries, he’d be tempted to do serious harm to the creature the moment he stepped through. Perhaps… another time. At least they needn’t be worried about Skul ever again.

Clip thought about it for a moment. "Very well, I guess that's acceptable." He took off his pack for a moment, and pulled the arm back yet. "By the way, is this yours?" He asked holding it out to Loki. "When I closed the barrier earlier, someone lost their arm. I've been trying to return it but I can't find the owner."

Summer scoffed softly. "Magic is how my hands work." she stated. "How else would it work anyways?" "I dunno..." he said, sighing. "All of this is just crashingly new to me. A few hours ago I was in my nest, my home, watching the last of my siblings die. Powerless to help them. Next thing I know I'm leaping out of my nest, barely escaping the jaws of... whatever those things were... and flying for the first time in my life. I flew for a long time... this place is nothing like home..." he said, sniffling a bit. Tears welled up in his eyes and threatened to spill. "I guess it isnt home anymore... I can't go back..." |

"Not everyone can step the boundaries of time like you." Morgan smiled and glanced towards Loki with a look saying 'Your welcome.'
Raja would have probably asked his question again if he wasn't trying to just keep from falling over with how dizzy he was getting, which he wasn't use to the amount of wounds he had.
Runa though was slightly impressed by a thirteen year old managing to handle adult business like an adult. |

To Clip’s question, Loki crossed his own arms, upper lip twitching in an aggitated manner. “That is not mine. The owner is dead. Keep it if you may. I care not.” The words left his mouth in rapid, sharp succession and two of his fingers began to idly tap the crook of his arm. As Raja looked increasingly unwell, Loki grew more impatient to be let in. He did glance over at Morgan at some point, with the smallest sliver of gratitude his eyes.

Clip frowned at the being 'dead' part. But put the arm back in his pack. He cast a quick spell over it to keep it's condition. With that finished, he slung his pack back on and put a hand on the barrier. "I guess i'll leave it up to you this time. If you let him come in, I'll just have to accept it. but only this time..." He whispered to the barrier, and removed the lockdown.

As the magical shield was placed out of lockdown, Loki’s eyes closed and he tried to release some of his anger and hatred. That was by no means an easy feat, but he knew that the barrier wouldn’t let him through if he didn’t, even at normal strength. The trickster’s breathing slowed and he looked notably calmer when his eyes opened. He extended a hand forward, almost hesitating when he recalled what happened with Skul, and breathed a soft sigh of relief when his arm went through the shield with no problem.
