(Sorry I was gone! Gotta study lol.) Meanwhile, Mick watched the exchange with a bored interest. He had been sent out to grab some ingredients for the witches at the loft, and certainly didn't expect to see a crime happen during his prep for one! He supposed he should check the two girls were alright, and started to head over to them when he noticed the thief coming back.
(good luck on your test!)
(remember, your personal lives are more important than this roleplay. If you're feeling unwell or are busy, don't feel pressured to write!)
(also, permission to bring in a touch of sci-fi to this? Cuz magic=magically enhanced technology and possibly scientists illegally and magically tampering with DNA to bring back extinct species who are currently sheltering the human baby Laurie replaced from the evil Faerie cult that Lauriel was lucky to be swapped out of, does it not?)
(theoretically)
(thanks! also for stuttering advice, it tends to be a lot of repeating words and backtracking, as well as tripping over sounds that require more tongue and teeth movement [at least for me anyway], like so:
"And so I, well, I went to the, uh, the, the la- lake, and I f- I f- ugh, I /fell/ into someone!"
Yeah, I trip on 's', 'f', 'l', 'b', and 'th' sounds a lot, and it comes out like a constant sound, maybe with repeats? Other than that, I backtrack on words and only occasionally half-finish them. Think of it more like trying to push a word out and having to retry than just repeating the sounds if that helps?)
(oh my lord I forgot to describe Laurie's wings! Basically darker versions of Bogong moth wings that are only slightly fuzzy and glow faintly at night)
(also I'm all here for sci-fi!)
(thank you, that is so helpful!)
(yay)
(Sorry I have many RP’s I am doing currently I thought this book was Liza sorry just imagine that Adeline is Liza (SORRY!)
(It's fine Bri, I have far too many OCs too)
(also I actually have to go 'cause it's super late where I am - almost 1am; I just logged on to get to this real quick. I'll be back when I'm home from school, so in 17 hours oops)
(it's ok @"Bri S Odell", happens to me all the time!)
(@faechain, go ahead, get some rest! see you tomorrow!)
(oh, and concept: little homeless city dragons abandoned by their owners who pretend to be gargoyles and eat from garbage cans, filching food from the market)
Kanoa laughed, her tears instantly dried up, "That's funny! Thanks for cheering me up!" she looked gratefully towards the girl who'd consoled her and smiled.
(Guys, if you don’t know what a changeling in Irish Mythology is, please look it up or nothing I say will make sense. IT OT NOT A SHAPESHIFTER. I REPEAT IT IS NOT A SHAPESHIFTER)
Laurie blinked, astonished at how easy that had been. “Err… You’re welcome.”, she replied, actually smiling for the first time.
(Urg I just reread the part where Laurie was stammering and sweet lord that was the cringiest thing ever I am so sorry ignore that oh my god uhhrrrggg)
(Laurie is confident when she’s in her own, but as soon as she starts talking to someone she turns into a nervous wreck)
(also, I will constantly be making alterations to Laurie since she's one of my newer characters, so be warned.)
(there! I just edited the horrific stammering part, is it any better?)
(Yes! It was good before, too.)
(thanks, but… * looks back on it and cringes *)
(who's turn?)
"AWWW! You're so cute when you smile!" Kanoa cupped her hands on Lauriel's cheeks. Pauka quickly scrambled onto Lauriel's shoulders as soon as Kanoa leaned in. "Pauka, no! I'm sorry Lauriel, he just really likes people. And he seems to be fascinated with your wings." Kanoa reached over to get a clearer look, the loose strands of her long, white hair tickling Lauriel's face.
(mine)
(okies)
Laurie flushed purple again, her usually calm and stony demeanor shattered by the presence of the kindest girl, no person, she'd ever met. The gorgeous monkey nuzzled her face, and Laurie found herself cooing softly to him while she stroked his silky chest softly. "Oh, those.", Laurie said, twisting a bit so that Kanoa could get a better glimpse of her wings.
