|Summary = Rayne and Silencia have a nice conversation after Silencia unsuccesfully tries to fly.
|Who = [[Rayne]], [[Silencia]]

Another day in the park, and Rayne is there! What is she doing? It looks like she's back to some of her old habits; she's up a tree with an art pad, sketching out the scene before her. She's gotten the fountain mostly done, and is currently working on drawing one of the surrounding trees. She lets her right leg dangle from the branch she's sitting on, occasionally bouncing it around, apparently enjoying the feeling of the brass bangle on her ankle being jostled as she does so.

A cheerfully humming voice announces the arrival of a certain butterfly-winged priestess. Today she's wearing her black leggings with a light blue tunic and her black sandals. Through slits cut out in the back of her tunic sprout her large wings that are folded down as usual. She goes straight for a secluded spot in the park, not even noticing the presence of her rainbow-haired friend. Once she's satisfied with the spot she's in, she folds out her wings and stretches them wide. The violet appendages flutter behind her, the movement so quick that they turn into a purple blur behind the Fae. Silencia looks like she's focusing very hard on those wings. She seems to lift up just two inches before she breathes out and drops back down. Damn, getting the hang of this flying thing is going to be difficult!

Rayne blinks and watches in silence as Silencia walks nearly to directly under her. Sure, she's not being particularly stealthy right now... but she is in a tree in very late spring. The leaves of course mask her presense in a manner that didn't happen several months ago. She watches as Sil tries to fly and frowns, trying to remember the first time she flew. Of course, her experience with flight isn't very transferable to the Fae woman. "Hey, you managed to tell gravity to shut up for a second or two there. Not bad."

Silencia blinks and looks up to see Rayne sitting in a tree! The Fae chuckles and waves, her wings stretching lazily behind her. "Oh, hey there Rayne! I didn't see you there!" Granted, she hadn't been paying attention. "It's really hard getting gravity to leave me alone though! I was training all day yesterday and this is all I can do... and my wings were killing me!" Silencia isn't a stranger to hard work and effort, but this was a ridiculous.

Rayne frowns and tilts her head as she looks down at Sil. "That much and you're still not doing much more than that?" She peers at Sil and her wings for another moment. "Maybe you're going at it wrong? I'm guessing you've not had any training in it from another butterfly winged person... But when I think of a butterfly taking off, their body isn't vertically oriented."

Silencia hums thoughtfully "I haven't thought about it like that... Maybe I have been using my wings wrong..." She peeks back at the giant wings and sighs. "The whole 'figure everything out as I go along' thing is really getting old..."

Rayne nods and motions out to the air in front of her. "When I learned, I started with gliding. Not sure how well that would work with you... I had the advantage of having a much lower weight on my wings when I tried that out."

Silencia gasps in an overly-dramatic display of shock. The grin on her face tells that she is merely joking. "Are you calling me fat?!" A giggle escapes her and she folds her wings down. "I think I should do some research on how butterflies fly before I try learning to fly myself..." Silencia walks over to the tree Rayne's in and easily pulls herself up, settling herself on a nearby branch so she can talk comfortably with the phoenix.

Rayne laughs and shakes her head. "No, I mean I'm a bird and a heck of a lot lighter than any adult human when I fly." She inches a bit away from Silencia, giving her a little more room. Let's face it, it's more giving herself room. "It sucks having no clue how to do it, I know."

Silencia sublty moves herself to another branch, allowing Rayne to have more room to sit comfortably without triggering that social anxiety. Her wings droop down and dangle behind her as she sits. "I know, I know! I think butterflies also have a different way of flying compared to birds... I've been flapping my wings like a bird would, so maybe that's what made it difficult for me to fly..." She shrugs lightly and smiles. "But that's something I need to research first! So how have you been Rayne? You seem quite a bit less stressed now!"

Rayne shrugs. "Well, the threats right now are the more conventional sort. I know how to deal with guys that like to fight more than.... strange creatures that want to lay eggs in my stomach." She frowns for a moment before shrugging again. "Not worrying about that has me feeling a bit more free than I have been, you know?"

Silencia nods and smiles, shivering for a moment at the thought of the particular threat Rayne had mentioned. "Ohh, I completely understand..." Silencia swings her legs back and forth, the movement rather childish on the young lady. "And have you been able to delegate properly? WIth the welcome centre, TASK and the council, you will need all the rest you can get!"

Rayne sighs and shakes her head. "I'm seriously considering getting a personal assistant when the council thing happens. That's... gonna be one thing too many." She looks up(relatively to the direction she was looking just before) to Silencia and nods, though. "Yeah, Ren and Sunset are at this point doing more than I am in the Welcome Center... though I think we need a couple more people in there."

Silencia chuckles and sits on her hands to resist the urge to pat Rayne on the head. "You'll do just fine when that council thing happens. There are people ready to help everywhere, so you shouldn't get worried. Get excited for all the new experiences you're going to gain! And the changes you'll be able to make!" Silencia has no doubt in her mind that Rayne will be able to pull everything off. All she would need is to delegate properly! It's almost as if Silencia is more excited for Rayne than Rayne herself!

Rayne doesn't look excited about it at all, so that's not too much of a challange! She instead is sighing an exausted sounding sigh as she shakes her head again. "You know what I was like before I came here? I was the kind of person that avoided responsibility. Four hundred years, and I always avoided management positions, barely got through raising a family, never volunteered to lead any projects... I step foot here and suddenly I get thrown into second in command of the police, get told I'm going to be on the governing council, and then I freaking make a department that I of course end up in the lead position of. All of this stuff is new to me, and a year ago I would have laughed at you if you said I was gonna be giving orders to anyone outside of a restaurant."

"So? Isn't that the fun part of life? Not knowing what you'll get thrown into?" Silencia grins and stops swinging her legs so she can pull them up and lean on her knees. "It's also somehow the nature of this place...I mean, if you'd tell me that I would become a priestess to a god of war and sprout butterfly wings, I would've worried for your sanity, let alone laugh!" Silencia points at Rayne and grins, her expression challenging Rayne's reluctance. "What if you getting in all these leadership positions is part of your fate? Maybe these jobs will shape you into the best version of yourself?" Silencia giggles and hops off of the branch, smoothly landing on the ground. "I should go and see if I can find some books on butterflies before it gets too late... See you around Rayne!"

Rayne laughs and nods. "Okay, okay, you've gotten me beat on that one, I think." She then tilts her head and looks out at nothing in particular as she considers what Sil says about the jobs shaping her. "I guess. I dunno. We'll see, I suppose." Sil dropping from the tree gets a slightly suprised look from Rayne, however. "Alright, then. Good luck!" She waves to Silencia, pencil still held between two fingers.

Silencia:

{{2014Profile|
|Image=Silencia.jpg
|Name=Silencia
|Series=Original
|Threat=Civilian
|Class= Mother Nature's little girl
|Alignment=
|Gender=Female
|Species=Half Fae, half human
|Age=22
|Birthdate=April 13
|Height=
|Weight=
|Short=A black haired girl with gentle violet eyes
|Desc= The girl before you is rather small in stature. If one looked with care, they would see that she does have some muscle tone in her arms and legs despite her small stature, suggesting a surprising strength from the slim limbs. Atop her head rests a dainty silver circlet, forged to look like vines and leaves wrapping around her head with a tiny purple stone shaped like a teardrop resting on her forehead. The silver of the circlet shines brilliantly against the black of her hair.
Two violet eyes, her gentle nature peeking through them, take the attention in her heart-shaped face. Her pale skin is contrasted by her jet black hair, that reaches down to her lower back. Around her neck a thin silver chain supports a small purple stone that gives off a soft shine every time her magic is used.
An observant eye would see that the nature around her (if there is any) seems to react to her presence, though that reaction is usually very subtle.
She is dressed in a simple white dress that reaches down to just above her knees. The back of the dress has two carefully cut slits to allow Silencia’s wings the room they need.

Two large wings, roughly twice the size of the Fae, sprout from her back. They are violet in colour and shaped like the wings of a butterfly. The edges of the wings are covered with intricate swirls, the designs actually carved into the silky wings, allowing light to pass through them. The wings look very thin and delicate, as if sewn from silk.
|Skills= At her arrival, she could only perform ‘pretty’ magic. Little tricks that are mainly designed to entertain and soothe. Summoning butterflies with her touch and allowing flowers to bloom with her voice are her forte. Her voice also has a soothing quality to the ones listening, but she is not aware of this and the effects are minimal because of that. Her emotions seem to affect her magic greatly, strong emotions will affect her surrounding, mainly the nature around her will react to her state of mind. This has a similar effect on the necklace she always wears; it seems to shine a weak little light whenever she uses her magic.
The primary source for her magic seems to be the nature around her, or Mother Nature. Her connection with Mother Nature is slightly more than a source for her magic, at times it seems like the nature around her actively tries to protect Silencia.
She has received the magic of the sun from Kotal Kahn as she is his priestess. At the moment she can use it to heal. Silencia is working hard to fuse the two magical sources together to allow them to work together. This takes time and effort and tremendous amounts of will.

==Background==
Silencia never knew her last name. She grew up not knowing of her bloodline, even though it was something that assisted her all throughout her life. She grew up in an orphanage where she quickly assumed the role of an older sister to the other children. She would read stories to them, comfort them and love them in place of the parents they did not have. The abilities of her kind aided her with this. She realised that her state of mind and her will was able to affect her surroundings. Every time she focused on the image, little butterflies emerged from her hands, earning the excited gasps of her fellow orphans. A soft hum from her lips was able to make closed flowers bloom. That was the extent of her abilities, but it was enough for her. She was able to make the others smile and that was the greatest magic of all. She was perfectly content in her life; the children were her life.

That life would quickly be thrown into chaos. Her town, small and gullible, was gripped with fear for witches. This fear stemmed from the church and grew because of an illness that ran through nearby towns. The townspeople were convinced that it was the work of witches and that their little town would be targeted if they did not take measures to ‘protect’ themselves. Many people knew of Silencia’s abilities, so it was natural for them to target her. She was oblivious to the danger that lurked, until the townspeople stood at the door of the orphanage, ready to take her. The other orphans knew she was not what they thought she was, so they helped her escape. Silencia ran, barefoot and carrying nothing but the clothes on her back and the necklace around her neck, into the woods. Her last memories of her hometown are stained with tears and fear.

Silencia’s bloodline is that of Fae. Being a mixed blood of Fae and human, she is physically stronger than a normal Fae, but has the magical potential of the Fae. She does not know this, but as her understanding of her bloodline grows, so will her abilities. Her will is going to be a strong ally in fulfilling her potential, because she cannot learn without will.
The world she’s from is a fantasy town named Arendylle and it’s set in medieval times. Magical creatures exist in fairytales, but most of the normal people do not know that magical creatures are among them. Some, like Silencia, don’t know they are one of them.

==Even more background==
There are many things that Silencia is unaware of. One of those things is the tragic fate of her parents. Her mother was a fae called Daralis and her father was a human called Hunter. Usually, a coupling between a human and fae would only produce a human, as the fae genes are extremely recessive. Somehow, Silencia managed to be born a perfect mixture of the two. This does not weaken anything in the fae bloodline, it only makes Silencia stronger and more resilient than the regular fae. Daralis chose to stay with Hunter and leave the presence of her kind. When Daralis became pregnant, Hunter grew obsessed, fearing she might get stolen from him because of her beauty and the magic she possessed. He locked Daralis in their home, not allowing her to leave for anything. This would be the beginning of the end. Daralis started to wither away in captivity, the fae needing her freedom to frolic in nature to replenish her strength. She understood that this obsession would not end with her death and she escaped. She ran from her beloved to save her child from a similar fate.

She gave birth to Silencia and secretly left her at a faraway orphanage, careful not to leave behind any clues that could lead to Daralis. She left her child with one last bit of her magic: a tiny gem, molded from her own magic. This stone would limit Silencia's fae side and only allow it to surface when the owner willed it to. This would protect Silencia from people who would want to use the girl for her powers. Daralis returned to her beloved after that, telling him she miscarried. Daralis died soon after that, the fae weakened by her pregnancy and captivity.

The tragic fate of the young fae caught the attention of Mother Nature. The fae always were the ones most connected to Mother Nature and thus the almighty entity took pity on the poor Silencia. Mother Nature watched over Silencia as she grew and developed into a gentle but strong young lady. It was when Silencia showed a strong affinity to magic, while still not awakened as a fae, that Mother Nature decided to make Silencia her heir.

==Fae==

The fae are a special type of fair folk, favoured by Mother Nature. They are a combination of wood nymphs, sirens and fairies. Every fae will have an obvious inclination towards one of those types of fair folk, allowing them to fit in with them. Their powers and appearance will be affected by this. For example, a fae with an inclination toward sirens will have an alluring and hypnotising voice as the sirens and that would be the source of her powers. Fae typically grow up looking very much like humans in their larval stage. In this larval stage, one does not have magical powers. Only when their fae awakens will they be able to properly use the magic of their kind. The awakening happens through a process called 'Metamorphosis' in which the fae surrenders themselves to the nature and residing in the cocoon that Mother Nature envelopes them with. After they mature in the cocoon, they burst out of it with newly grown wings. Usually they emerge while secreting pheromones, especially the females, since 'Metamorphosis' is also the moment where the fae come of age and can reproduce. The process is completely instinctive, the fae will feel Mother Nature's call when it is time for them to mature.

Title = Pinky Promise!
|Summary = Sae and Sil have a talk. It ends with Silencia passing out.
|Who = [[Sae]], [[Silencia]]
|Date = March 3, 2016.
|Where = The Usual
|Log=
Another day and Silencia still seems to be very weak. The priestess still has a sickly pale color and her movements are very slow. Though she is quite a bit better compared to when she talked with Kotal and Rayne, she still has a long way to go. Being fed off of seems to have a greater effect on her than it does Sae and that has a specific reason. A reason she didn't share with Kotal yet and will probably get her in even more trouble. Right now, the weak priestess is sitting in a booth by a window. Placed infront of Silencia is a large plate filled with iron-rich greens and even a small steak. Silencia is staring at the plate with an unwilling look. She needs to eat to replenish her lost blood, but she feels nauseous and tired. She sighs and stuffs some of the vegetables in her mouth, slowly chewing as she stares at the business card in her hand. She seems to be deep in thought about something serious.

Sae enter with a hum in her voice and a skip in her step, dressed in her waitressing uniform as usual, giggling at nothing whatsoever. She's just happy! Here for her shift as a waitress, she spots Sil over at a booth and runs over to greet her. "Sil Sil! Hey-' she cuts herself off. "Ohmygosh! Sil!? Are you okay!? You look super duper sick! Super sick! Here-" she gives her a tight hug. "Can I get you anything?! Anything you need!"
Silencia doesn't even notice Sae's arrival until she's pulled into that hug, she doesn't hug back. Usually she loves cuddles and hugs, but today she's way too weak for that. She smiles though and waves her hand. "Nothing to be worried about, Sae, I'm just a little anemic. I gave Flandre a little too much..." Silencia puts the business card in her hand away, glancing at Sae with a weak little smile. "I would like a little company though... I'm trying to convince myself to eat!"

Sae awwwwws! "That's no good! Usually when Flan feeds on me I just need a little nap and some snuggle-loves afterwords and I'm all better! Plus some foods and drink too, but she's really great about pampering me after!". Giggling quietly, she sits down beside Sil, wiggling until she's right up against her in the booth, enjoying the soft contact. She does want to talk to the priestess about letting her and Flan feed without interference, but it's not exactlty the right time just yet! "I'm guessing it wouldn't help if I did the choo-choo airplane thingy with a fork?", giggling a bunch at her own joke.

Silencia smiles warmly and reaches out to pet Sae on the head. "Don't tell anyone, but I didn't just let Flandre drink my blood... I put quite a bit of my magical energy in there so that it would help Flandre last longer without needing to feed." Silencia doesn't seem to be aware of Sae's plan, she just stares at her food with a tired look. She does giggle softly at Sae's joke. "You don't need to, thank you. Just stay by my side for a bit." Silencia eats a bite of her steak to prove that she is capable of eating on her own. "So, how've you been, Sae? I hope I didn't worry you too much last time, but I had to be strict."

Sae raises her head up into the pettings, giggling again. She loves pet-pets, always! Closing her eyes, she just focuses on that feeling until it ends, blinking a couple times to come back down to reality. "Mhm mhm! I can totally do that!". To emhpasize, she wiggles against Sil's side, then lays a head on her shoulder. "Awwwwww, that makes sense then! I was really wondering how come someone as tough and magicy and strong as you could get so tired! Since I'm always pretty chipper and stuff after it's been this long since she's fed! Though it might've been 'cause you didn't get boatloads of cuddles afater she fed on you, but that makes sense toooo!", grinning. "And I've been super super good! Me and Miss Flan met a super cute green haired gnome-y person yesterday! She had a ghostie-cat that she let me pet bunches! Was /super/ awesome! My hand went right through her!"

Silencia smiles warmly as Sae rambles off as usual. It was somehow very soothing to Silencia to be with the overly energetic schoolgirl. "I'm not tough, Sae, I'm just good at pretending to be!" She eats a bit more of her greens while she listens to the girl talk. Her hand wraps around Sae as the girl rests her head on her shoulder, absentmindedly petting her shoulder. "That sounds like fun! How's Flandre doing? Did she think about our little talk?" Silencia is of course very worried about Sae and Flandre. Right now she doesn't have the strength to keep an eye on them and she hasn't been able to reqruit Jim yet, so there's no one to look after Sae.

Sae 'hmmmmmmmm's at that, rolling the words around in her head. "I don't think there's a difference between being tough and pretending to be tough! I think you tough and that's that!", smiling wide! The pets on her shoulder make her shoulder make her sigh contently, enjoying her time with the priestess. The question brings to mind one of the things she meant to ask Silencia earlier. "Oh! Really good! And..kinda? I mean.." she blushes a little, knowing she planned on disobeying Sil. But Flan needed to drink from her thrall!

"I kinda meant to talk to you about all that, Sil! I really do think Flan's changed. Sure, sometimes she acts like I'm justa.." she thinks, trying to find the correct word to use, unsure herself. "..thing, to her? But I think it's more than that. Like, from what I've figured out and stuffs she's had a bunch of people back home like me to feed on, and kinda wasn't so nice to them, right? But with me it's different! Was like with Mister Blondie-McBearfighting-pants!" obviously forgetting Jaune's name. "..she held back so as not to scare me! I don't think she woulda ever done that with someone else, don't you? Like..she's starting to change! I know it!".

Oh no. Not this. Silencia really isn't energetic enough to argue with Sae. Not that that stops her. She sighs and puts down her fork, shifting to face Sae. She grasps the girl's hands and stares into her eyes, her expression serious. "I believe you, Sae. I truly believe that you are special to Flandre and that she would not want to hurt you. That is not the reason why I forbid Flandre from feeding from you for now." Silencia's grip on Sae's hands is weak, very weak, it's as if the distress is keeping the fae from regaining her strength. "She needs to have something to motivate her to change, to see you as a person she can love instead of a thing, as you put it. Sae, please listen closely to me, this is very important." Silencia obviously is taking this very seriously, her tone urgent and pleading. "If you want to be loved by Flandre like in those yuri books of yours-" Yes, she has looked up what 'yuri' meant. "Or even as a friend and not a toy, you need to support Flandre in this."

Squeezing Sil's hands back, Sae frowns a little, thinking it over. "But..but I think there's gotta be another way! At least a lil comrpomise or something! I really like it when Miss Flandre feeds on me and stuffs, it feels nice and I get so many cuddle-snugs and it makes her super super happy! I think she already loves me and stuffs too! Is just..it does need some work!" she admits, nodding. "But can't just not have her feed on me! That makes both of us all frowny. And a frowny, grumpy Flan isn't a Flan that's going to change and stuff, right?". Blushing more at the mention of yuri-books. "Sides..makes me feel all silly inside when she feeds on someone else..". She's unsure of the emotions. It's not jealiousy, per se. But Sae's perfectly good for feeding! And she likes it! So she should be the one who's nommed on, she thinks

Silencia raises on eyebrow at Sae's words. "You admit that Flandre needs to work on herself so you two can be together, but as soon as things get a little tough, you try and find a way out of it?" Silencia's tone is a little annoyed, but the priestess holds herself back. "I didn't say she couldn't feed, nor did I say that she's never allowed to feed from you. You just need to be patient until she fulfills the promise. She needs to carefully think about what you are for her, Sae. And if you want to cuddle her, then do so, she doesn't need to feed from you to snuggle with you!" Silencia looks a bit more tired than before, but her will is strong enough to win against the god of war, so it sure as hell will not back down infront of a schoolgirl! "If you don't want her feeding on anyone else, then find alternatives, like donated blood in bags or something. For now, she should be fine because of the power I put in the blood I gave her." Silencia weakly squeezes Sae's hand, returning her gaze to the girl's eyes. "I know it is hard, Sae and I know it's not fun, but sometimes people need to go through something like this to grow and become the best version of themselves. Don't you want that, Sae? Don't you want Flandre to be better? You've seen the pain she held inside, you've seen the loneliness she fights. Don't you want to help her deal with that?"

Sae listens to everything with wide eyes, occasionally glancing down as she thinks things over, conflicting feelings running around inside her. "But..but.." she murmurs, then does something really strange! She gently bites Sil's shoulder, whining a muffled whine into her body, like this is super hard on her! "I want Flan Flan to be happy.." she sighs. "But she's gotta get better, too..", eyes all watery. Looking around, she sees the restaurant's deserted save for the two of them, so admits. "I wanna..I wanna.." she squeezes Sil's hands. "You gotta promise not to tell anyone yet! Especially Miss Flandre! Okay?", taking a deep breath before she continues.

"I..I maybe umm..I maybe wanna be Miss Flandre's girlfriend and stuffs one day..and her thrall and snuggle-pet and stuffs, too. But..but think you're right. 'cause I can't be the first one if she doesn't get a lil better.."

Silencia blinks surprisedly as she feels Sae's teeth in her shoulder. It doesn't neccesarily hurt, but it was surprising nontheless. Luckily, Sil's got experience with children dealing with difficult emotions, so she doesn't push the girl off, opting to gently pat her on the back instead. "I know this is hard, sweety, but you've got to be strong for her." Silencia reaches out to gently wipe Sae's cheek in the same way she did with Flandre before. She nods softly as Sae tells her to keep what she tells her secret. She doesn't seem to be surprised about Sae's intentions. They were pretty clear from the get-go actually. She smiles and pets the girl again. "Both of you need to be a little strong right now so that you can become closer like that, Sae. Right now, she doesn't see you as a person because you're letting her make you into a toy she can feed off of. This is normal to her, because it's what she's always done, I assume. That's why you need to spend time with her without letting her feed off of you, so she can see you differently." Silencia pauses, thinking of some way to say the same thing so that it'll be easier for Sae to understand. "It's like having yucky medicine. You're not happy drinking medicine because it's yucky, but after that, you'll get better and happier because you're not sick anymore. I know you want to make Flandre happy, but the best way to make her and you the happiest is to be a little patient now..."

Sae gently kisses the spot she was biting against, even rubbing her cheek against Sil's shoulder in an 'I'm sorry' kind of way. The girl's completely unaware how obvious her intentions for Flandre are, so the fact that Sil's keeping it a secret makes her smile a little. "Yucky medicine.." she repeats, nodding. "I can get that and stuffs. I umm..still makes me feel silly if she's not feeding from me though. Like..like, if she's not feeding from me, but feeding from other people instead..that's no good! But if she's feeding both it's cute I think..so..soo...ummm..maybe I can put some of my blood in little bags for her? Do you think that would work?", unsure exactly how they'd go about it, but there must be somewhere she can 'donate' blood around here!

Silencia smiles and pets Sae's head in an understanding manner, showing her that she doesn't mind that the girl had been biting her. She shakes her head softly at the little suggestion though. "That would be breaking the promise, Sae. If you really feel like you want to feed her, then make her sweets and cookies and such. But Flandre should not drink from your blood for the time being." Silencia knows she's being strict, but she wouldn't do this without knowing that it is absolutely neccesary. She gives the girl a little smile. "I can teach you to make delicious cookies for Flandre and she'll be just as happy with that. Does that help?" Silencia pauses again and then grins. "Just think about it this way; once this all is over, Flandre will be all yours! You just need to be a little strong now."

Sae pouts a little, knowing that means Flandre's going to be drinking other people's blood. But Silencia's right, Flandre's almost on the right path, and messing up now could push back all the progress she's made since coming to twisted. The suggestion of baking makes her giggle and nod nod nods! "Mhm mhm mhm! Cookies! And sweets! Candy! She loveloves candy! And it'll all be from me!", bouncing a little at the thought, right back to being all energertic. "Wonder what kinda stuff she likes! Maybe ice cream cake! That'd be awesome!"

Silencia chuckles softly, happy to see Sae all bubbly again. "I can help you with all of that! I'll teach you to make whatever you want and then you'll make it for your lovely little Flan! Isn't that a nice plan?" Silencia's strategy is to just make Sae focus on other things like baking instead of being a walking snackpack. "So, you agree that you'll help Flandre with sticking with the promise not to feed off of you until she learns what you mean to her?" The priestess sticks out her little finger and smiles at Sae. "Pinky promise?"

Sae looks down at that finger for a moment, smile fading just a little like she's unsure. But just like that, the girl makes up her mind and the grin comes right back, wrapping her pinky around Sil's, giggling! "Mhm! Pinky promise! We'll make her all the sweets she could ever want! And then even more so we can have some, tooooo!", bouncing in her seat at the thought, even wiggling her tush side to side in the booth! "We should make her cookie cake too! That's like, TWO whole sweets in one, right? Same with ice cream cakes!"

Silencia smiles happily at the schoolgirl and nods. "How about ice cream cookie cake? That's three!" Silencia giggles along with Sae. Silencia seems a tiny bit better, her worries were slightly lessened. She still would ask for Jim's help though, just in case. Silencia peeks at her half-eaten steak and veggies, still feeling a bit nauseous. "I... think I'm done eating..." All the talk about sweets was making Silencia a bit nauseous and thus she chose not to finish her food. She's actually breaking an important household rule!

Sae gasps! "All /three/?! I never even thought of that! We should we should! Let's do that!", giggling with joy. Looking up at Sil, then down at her plate, she hmms. "Sil Sil! If you're not gonna nom on that, can I have the rest maybe! I'm a growing girl and stuffs!", grinning wide. "Do you need anything else though Sil? Blankets? Cuddles? Tea or water or something? You still don't look too good!", worried about her priestess-y friend!

Silencia pushes the plate towards Sae. "Here you go, it's actually really yummy, so enjoy!" Silencia shakes her head at Sae's worry. "No need, I'll probably go take a nap soon. Getting better is simply going to take time." Silencia stretches lazily, her arms trembling with the strain. She then grins and pokes her own cheek. "And I always was pale, Sae, I'm just a little more pale that usual!" She finally gives in and rests her head on the schoolgirl's shoulder, resting a bit. "Yep... I should probably go take a nap soon..."

Sae eats a good bit faster than she normally would, but it's with a purpose! There's no way her little plan's gonna work if she's making chewing sounds right next to Sil! With the food scarfed down, she wipes her mouth and drinks a little water, then kisses the top of the priestess's head as it rests on her shoulder. Then she motions over to the bartender to bring them a blanket, something she gently drapes over the two of them so it's nice and cozy beneath. "Mhmmm! You're gonna nap right here, just in case you wake up all sicky and stuff, or if you wake up needing me to get something for you! You can take care of me, but I can take care of you too, Sil!", giving her a squeezes as they warm up beneath the blanket.

Eyes...so..heavy... "N..no... I'll go home and...sleep..." She sighs and closes her eyes, very quickly getting comfy with Sae. "Maybe a little... nap here would be fine..." Silencia isn't used to being the one that needs the care, so this is a bit different for Silencia, but it is not uncomfortable. Silencia mumbles softly as she remember something. "Don't tell Kotal... I gave my power..." And she falls asleep rather quickly, all snuggled up against Sae.

Sae gently strokes through your hair, giggling softly. She kisses Sil right on temple, then murmurs "Don't worry about anything, Sil. Secret's safe with me.", wrapping her arms around the girl's waist and hugging her tight until she's fast asleep.

Title = Pinky Promise!
|Summary = Sae and Sil have a talk. It ends with Silencia passing out.
|Who = [[Sae]], [[Silencia]]
|Date = March 3, 2016.
|Where = The Usual
|Log=

Another day and Silencia still seems to be very weak. The priestess still has a sickly pale color and her movements are very slow. Though she is quite a bit better compared to when she talked with Kotal and Rayne, she still has a long way to go. Being fed off of seems to have a greater effect on her than it does Sae and that has a specific reason. A reason she didn't share with Kotal yet and will probably get her in even more trouble. Right now, the weak priestess is sitting in a booth by a window. Placed infront of Silencia is a large plate filled with iron-rich greens and even a small steak. Silencia is staring at the plate with an unwilling look. She needs to eat to replenish her lost blood, but she feels nauseous and tired. She sighs and stuffs some of the vegetables in her mouth, slowly chewing as she stares at the business card in her hand. She seems to be deep in thought about something serious.

Sae enter with a hum in her voice and a skip in her step, dressed in her waitressing uniform as usual, giggling at nothing whatsoever. She's just happy! Here for her shift as a waitress, she spots Sil over at a booth and runs over to greet her. "Sil Sil! Hey-' she cuts herself off. "Ohmygosh! Sil!? Are you okay!? You look super duper sick! Super sick! Here-" she gives her a tight hug. "Can I get you anything?! Anything you need!"
Silencia doesn't even notice Sae's arrival until she's pulled into that hug, she doesn't hug back. Usually she loves cuddles and hugs, but today she's way too weak for that. She smiles though and waves her hand. "Nothing to be worried about, Sae, I'm just a little anemic. I gave Flandre a little too much..." Silencia puts the business card in her hand away, glancing at Sae with a weak little smile. "I would like a little company though... I'm trying to convince myself to eat!"

Sae awwwwws! "That's no good! Usually when Flan feeds on me I just need a little nap and some snuggle-loves afterwords and I'm all better! Plus some foods and drink too, but she's really great about pampering me after!". Giggling quietly, she sits down beside Sil, wiggling until she's right up against her in the booth, enjoying the soft contact. She does want to talk to the priestess about letting her and Flan feed without interference, but it's not exactlty the right time just yet! "I'm guessing it wouldn't help if I did the choo-choo airplane thingy with a fork?", giggling a bunch at her own joke.

Silencia smiles warmly and reaches out to pet Sae on the head. "Don't tell anyone, but I didn't just let Flandre drink my blood... I put quite a bit of my magical energy in there so that it would help Flandre last longer without needing to feed." Silencia doesn't seem to be aware of Sae's plan, she just stares at her food with a tired look. She does giggle softly at Sae's joke. "You don't need to, thank you. Just stay by my side for a bit." Silencia eats a bite of her steak to prove that she is capable of eating on her own. "So, how've you been, Sae? I hope I didn't worry you too much last time, but I had to be strict."

Sae raises her head up into the pettings, giggling again. She loves pet-pets, always! Closing her eyes, she just focuses on that feeling until it ends, blinking a couple times to come back down to reality. "Mhm mhm! I can totally do that!". To emhpasize, she wiggles against Sil's side, then lays a head on her shoulder. "Awwwwww, that makes sense then! I was really wondering how come someone as tough and magicy and strong as you could get so tired! Since I'm always pretty chipper and stuff after it's been this long since she's fed! Though it might've been 'cause you didn't get boatloads of cuddles afater she fed on you, but that makes sense toooo!", grinning. "And I've been super super good! Me and Miss Flan met a super cute green haired gnome-y person yesterday! She had a ghostie-cat that she let me pet bunches! Was /super/ awesome! My hand went right through her!"

Silencia smiles warmly as Sae rambles off as usual. It was somehow very soothing to Silencia to be with the overly energetic schoolgirl. "I'm not tough, Sae, I'm just good at pretending to be!" She eats a bit more of her greens while she listens to the girl talk. Her hand wraps around Sae as the girl rests her head on her shoulder, absentmindedly petting her shoulder. "That sounds like fun! How's Flandre doing? Did she think about our little talk?" Silencia is of course very worried about Sae and Flandre. Right now she doesn't have the strength to keep an eye on them and she hasn't been able to reqruit Jim yet, so there's no one to look after Sae.

Sae 'hmmmmmmmm's at that, rolling the words around in her head. "I don't think there's a difference between being tough and pretending to be tough! I think you tough and that's that!", smiling wide! The pets on her shoulder make her shoulder make her sigh contently, enjoying her time with the priestess. The question brings to mind one of the things she meant to ask Silencia earlier. "Oh! Really good! And..kinda? I mean.." she blushes a little, knowing she planned on disobeying Sil. But Flan needed to drink from her thrall!

"I kinda meant to talk to you about all that, Sil! I really do think Flan's changed. Sure, sometimes she acts like I'm justa.." she thinks, trying to find the correct word to use, unsure herself. "..thing, to her? But I think it's more than that. Like, from what I've figured out and stuffs she's had a bunch of people back home like me to feed on, and kinda wasn't so nice to them, right? But with me it's different! Was like with Mister Blondie-McBearfighting-pants!" obviously forgetting Jaune's name. "..she held back so as not to scare me! I don't think she woulda ever done that with someone else, don't you? Like..she's starting to change! I know it!".

Oh no. Not this. Silencia really isn't energetic enough to argue with Sae. Not that that stops her. She sighs and puts down her fork, shifting to face Sae. She grasps the girl's hands and stares into her eyes, her expression serious. "I believe you, Sae. I truly believe that you are special to Flandre and that she would not want to hurt you. That is not the reason why I forbid Flandre from feeding from you for now." Silencia's grip on Sae's hands is weak, very weak, it's as if the distress is keeping the fae from regaining her strength. "She needs to have something to motivate her to change, to see you as a person she can love instead of a thing, as you put it. Sae, please listen closely to me, this is very important." Silencia obviously is taking this very seriously, her tone urgent and pleading. "If you want to be loved by Flandre like in those yuri books of yours-" Yes, she has looked up what 'yuri' meant. "Or even as a friend and not a toy, you need to support Flandre in this."

Squeezing Sil's hands back, Sae frowns a little, thinking it over. "But..but I think there's gotta be another way! At least a lil comrpomise or something! I really like it when Miss Flandre feeds on me and stuffs, it feels nice and I get so many cuddle-snugs and it makes her super super happy! I think she already loves me and stuffs too! Is just..it does need some work!" she admits, nodding. "But can't just not have her feed on me! That makes both of us all frowny. And a frowny, grumpy Flan isn't a Flan that's going to change and stuff, right?". Blushing more at the mention of yuri-books. "Sides..makes me feel all silly inside when she feeds on someone else..". She's unsure of the emotions. It's not jealiousy, per se. But Sae's perfectly good for feeding! And she likes it! So she should be the one who's nommed on, she thinks

Silencia raises on eyebrow at Sae's words. "You admit that Flandre needs to work on herself so you two can be together, but as soon as things get a little tough, you try and find a way out of it?" Silencia's tone is a little annoyed, but the priestess holds herself back. "I didn't say she couldn't feed, nor did I say that she's never allowed to feed from you. You just need to be patient until she fulfills the promise. She needs to carefully think about what you are for her, Sae. And if you want to cuddle her, then do so, she doesn't need to feed from you to snuggle with you!" Silencia looks a bit more tired than before, but her will is strong enough to win against the god of war, so it sure as hell will not back down infront of a schoolgirl! "If you don't want her feeding on anyone else, then find alternatives, like donated blood in bags or something. For now, she should be fine because of the power I put in the blood I gave her." Silencia weakly squeezes Sae's hand, returning her gaze to the girl's eyes. "I know it is hard, Sae and I know it's not fun, but sometimes people need to go through something like this to grow and become the best version of themselves. Don't you want that, Sae? Don't you want Flandre to be better? You've seen the pain she held inside, you've seen the loneliness she fights. Don't you want to help her deal with that?"

Sae listens to everything with wide eyes, occasionally glancing down as she thinks things over, conflicting feelings running around inside her. "But..but.." she murmurs, then does something really strange! She gently bites Sil's shoulder, whining a muffled whine into her body, like this is super hard on her! "I want Flan Flan to be happy.." she sighs. "But she's gotta get better, too..", eyes all watery. Looking around, she sees the restaurant's deserted save for the two of them, so admits. "I wanna..I wanna.." she squeezes Sil's hands. "You gotta promise not to tell anyone yet! Especially Miss Flandre! Okay?", taking a deep breath before she continues.

"I..I maybe umm..I maybe wanna be Miss Flandre's girlfriend and stuffs one day..and her thrall and snuggle-pet and stuffs, too. But..but think you're right. 'cause I can't be the first one if she doesn't get a lil better.."

Silencia blinks surprisedly as she feels Sae's teeth in her shoulder. It doesn't neccesarily hurt, but it was surprising nontheless. Luckily, Sil's got experience with children dealing with difficult emotions, so she doesn't push the girl off, opting to gently pat her on the back instead. "I know this is hard, sweety, but you've got to be strong for her." Silencia reaches out to gently wipe Sae's cheek in the same way she did with Flandre before. She nods softly as Sae tells her to keep what she tells her secret. She doesn't seem to be surprised about Sae's intentions. They were pretty clear from the get-go actually. She smiles and pets the girl again. "Both of you need to be a little strong right now so that you can become closer like that, Sae. Right now, she doesn't see you as a person because you're letting her make you into a toy she can feed off of. This is normal to her, because it's what she's always done, I assume. That's why you need to spend time with her without letting her feed off of you, so she can see you differently." Silencia pauses, thinking of some way to say the same thing so that it'll be easier for Sae to understand. "It's like having yucky medicine. You're not happy drinking medicine because it's yucky, but after that, you'll get better and happier because you're not sick anymore. I know you want to make Flandre happy, but the best way to make her and you the happiest is to be a little patient now..."

Sae gently kisses the spot she was biting against, even rubbing her cheek against Sil's shoulder in an 'I'm sorry' kind of way. The girl's completely unaware how obvious her intentions for Flandre are, so the fact that Sil's keeping it a secret makes her smile a little. "Yucky medicine.." she repeats, nodding. "I can get that and stuffs. I umm..still makes me feel silly if she's not feeding from me though. Like..like, if she's not feeding from me, but feeding from other people instead..that's no good! But if she's feeding both it's cute I think..so..soo...ummm..maybe I can put some of my blood in little bags for her? Do you think that would work?", unsure exactly how they'd go about it, but there must be somewhere she can 'donate' blood around here!

Silencia smiles and pets Sae's head in an understanding manner, showing her that she doesn't mind that the girl had been biting her. She shakes her head softly at the little suggestion though. "That would be breaking the promise, Sae. If you really feel like you want to feed her, then make her sweets and cookies and such. But Flandre should not drink from your blood for the time being." Silencia knows she's being strict, but she wouldn't do this without knowing that it is absolutely neccesary. She gives the girl a little smile. "I can teach you to make delicious cookies for Flandre and she'll be just as happy with that. Does that help?" Silencia pauses again and then grins. "Just think about it this way; once this all is over, Flandre will be all yours! You just need to be a little strong now."

Sae pouts a little, knowing that means Flandre's going to be drinking other people's blood. But Silencia's right, Flandre's almost on the right path, and messing up now could push back all the progress she's made since coming to twisted. The suggestion of baking makes her giggle and nod nod nods! "Mhm mhm mhm! Cookies! And sweets! Candy! She loveloves candy! And it'll all be from me!", bouncing a little at the thought, right back to being all energertic. "Wonder what kinda stuff she likes! Maybe ice cream cake! That'd be awesome!"

Silencia chuckles softly, happy to see Sae all bubbly again. "I can help you with all of that! I'll teach you to make whatever you want and then you'll make it for your lovely little Flan! Isn't that a nice plan?" Silencia's strategy is to just make Sae focus on other things like baking instead of being a walking snackpack. "So, you agree that you'll help Flandre with sticking with the promise not to feed off of you until she learns what you mean to her?" The priestess sticks out her little finger and smiles at Sae. "Pinky promise?"

Sae looks down at that finger for a moment, smile fading just a little like she's unsure. But just like that, the girl makes up her mind and the grin comes right back, wrapping her pinky around Sil's, giggling! "Mhm! Pinky promise! We'll make her all the sweets she could ever want! And then even more so we can have some, tooooo!", bouncing in her seat at the thought, even wiggling her tush side to side in the booth! "We should make her cookie cake too! That's like, TWO whole sweets in one, right? Same with ice cream cakes!"

Silencia smiles happily at the schoolgirl and nods. "How about ice cream cookie cake? That's three!" Silencia giggles along with Sae. Silencia seems a tiny bit better, her worries were slightly lessened. She still would ask for Jim's help though, just in case. Silencia peeks at her half-eaten steak and veggies, still feeling a bit nauseous. "I... think I'm done eating..." All the talk about sweets was making Silencia a bit nauseous and thus she chose not to finish her food. She's actually breaking an important household rule!

Sae gasps! "All /three/?! I never even thought of that! We should we should! Let's do that!", giggling with joy. Looking up at Sil, then down at her plate, she hmms. "Sil Sil! If you're not gonna nom on that, can I have the rest maybe! I'm a growing girl and stuffs!", grinning wide. "Do you need anything else though Sil? Blankets? Cuddles? Tea or water or something? You still don't look too good!", worried about her priestess-y friend!

Silencia pushes the plate towards Sae. "Here you go, it's actually really yummy, so enjoy!" Silencia shakes her head at Sae's worry. "No need, I'll probably go take a nap soon. Getting better is simply going to take time." Silencia stretches lazily, her arms trembling with the strain. She then grins and pokes her own cheek. "And I always was pale, Sae, I'm just a little more pale that usual!" She finally gives in and rests her head on the schoolgirl's shoulder, resting a bit. "Yep... I should probably go take a nap soon..."

Sae eats a good bit faster than she normally would, but it's with a purpose! There's no way her little plan's gonna work if she's making chewing sounds right next to Sil! With the food scarfed down, she wipes her mouth and drinks a little water, then kisses the top of the priestess's head as it rests on her shoulder. Then she motions over to the bartender to bring them a blanket, something she gently drapes over the two of them so it's nice and cozy beneath. "Mhmmm! You're gonna nap right here, just in case you wake up all sicky and stuff, or if you wake up needing me to get something for you! You can take care of me, but I can take care of you too, Sil!", giving her a squeezes as they warm up beneath the blanket.

Eyes...so..heavy... "N..no... I'll go home and...sleep..." She sighs and closes her eyes, very quickly getting comfy with Sae. "Maybe a little... nap here would be fine..." Silencia isn't used to being the one that needs the care, so this is a bit different for Silencia, but it is not uncomfortable. Silencia mumbles softly as she remember something. "Don't tell Kotal... I gave my power..." And she falls asleep rather quickly, all snuggled up against Sae.

Sae gently strokes through your hair, giggling softly. She kisses Sil right on temple, then murmurs "Don't worry about anything, Sil. Secret's safe with me.", wrapping her arms around the girl's waist and hugging her tight until she's fast asleep.

Silencia

Silencia:

{{2014Profile|
|Image=Silencia.jpg
|Name=Silencia
|Series=Original
|Threat=Civilian
|Class= Mother Nature's little girl
|Alignment=
|Gender=Female
|Species=Half Fae, half human
|Age=22
|Birthdate=April 13
|Height=
|Weight=
|Short=A black haired girl with gentle violet eyes
|Desc= The girl before you is rather small in stature. If one looked with care, they would see that she does have some muscle tone in her arms and legs despite her small stature, suggesting a surprising strength from the slim limbs. Atop her head rests a dainty silver circlet, forged to look like vines and leaves wrapping around her head with a tiny purple stone shaped like a teardrop resting on her forehead. The silver of the circlet shines brilliantly against the black of her hair.
Two violet eyes, her gentle nature peeking through them, take the attention in her heart-shaped face. Her pale skin is contrasted by her jet black hair, that reaches down to her lower back. Around her neck a thin silver chain supports a small purple stone that gives off a soft shine every time her magic is used.

She is dressed in what appears to be a dark green tunic with tight black sleeves that go down to her elbows. The fabric of her tunic seems to be reinforced by carefully crafted chainmaille. Underneath the tunic, that reaches down to mid-thigh, the girl wears short black leggings that covers her legs down to right above her knees. Her feet and ankles are covered by sandals of the same color as her tunic, thick straps wrapping around her ankles.
An observant eye would see that the nature around her (if there is any) seems to react to her presence, though that reaction is usually very subtle.
|Skills= At her arrival, she could only perform ‘pretty’ magic. Little tricks that are mainly designed to entertain and soothe. Summoning butterflies with her touch and allowing flowers to bloom with her voice are her forte. Her voice also has a soothing quality to the ones listening, but she is not aware of this and the effects are minimal because of that. Her emotions seem to affect her magic greatly, strong emotions will affect her surrounding, mainly the nature around her will react to her state of mind. This has a similar effect on the necklace she always wears; it seems to shine a weak little light whenever she uses her magic.
The primary source for her magic seems to be the nature around her, or Mother Nature. Her connection with Mother Nature is slightly more than a source for her magic, at times it seems like the nature around her actively tries to protect Silencia.
She has received the magic of the sun from Kotal Kahn as she is his priestess. At the moment she can use it to heal. Silencia is working hard to fuse the two magical sources together to allow them to work together. This takes time and effort and tremendous amounts of will.

==Background==
Silencia never knew her last name. She grew up not knowing of her bloodline, even though it was something that assisted her all throughout her life. She grew up in an orphanage where she quickly assumed the role of an older sister to the other children. She would read stories to them, comfort them and love them in place of the parents they did not have. The abilities of her kind aided her with this. She realised that her state of mind and her will was able to affect her surroundings. Every time she focused on the image, little butterflies emerged from her hands, earning the excited gasps of her fellow orphans. A soft hum from her lips was able to make closed flowers bloom. That was the extent of her abilities, but it was enough for her. She was able to make the others smile and that was the greatest magic of all. She was perfectly content in her life; the children were her life.

That life would quickly be thrown into chaos. Her town, small and gullible, was gripped with fear for witches. This fear stemmed from the church and grew because of an illness that ran through nearby towns. The townspeople were convinced that it was the work of witches and that their little town would be targeted if they did not take measures to ‘protect’ themselves. Many people knew of Silencia’s abilities, so it was natural for them to target her. She was oblivious to the danger that lurked, until the townspeople stood at the door of the orphanage, ready to take her. The other orphans knew she was not what they thought she was, so they helped her escape. Silencia ran, barefoot and carrying nothing but the clothes on her back and the necklace around her neck, into the woods. Her last memories of her hometown are stained with tears and fear.

Silencia’s bloodline is that of Fae. Being a mixed blood of Fae and human, she is physically stronger than a normal Fae, but has the magical potential of the Fae. She does not know this, but as her understanding of her bloodline grows, so will her abilities. Her will is going to be a strong ally in fulfilling her potential, because she cannot learn without will.
The world she’s from is a fantasy town named Arendylle and it’s set in medieval times. Magical creatures exist in fairytales, but most of the normal people do not know that magical creatures are among them. Some, like Silencia, don’t know they are one of them.

==Even more background==
There are many things that Silencia is unaware of. One of those things is the tragic fate of her parents. Her mother was a fae called Daralis and her father was a human called Hunter. Usually, a coupling between a human and fae would only produce a human, as the fae genes are extremely recessive. Somehow, Silencia managed to be born a perfect mixture of the two. This does not weaken anything in the fae bloodline, it only makes Silencia stronger and more resilient than the regular fae. Daralis chose to stay with Hunter and leave the presence of her kind. When Daralis became pregnant, Hunter grew obsessed, fearing she might get stolen from him because of her beauty and the magic she possessed. He locked Daralis in their home, not allowing her to leave for anything. This would be the beginning of the end. Daralis started to wither away in captivity, the fae needing her freedom to frolic in nature to replenish her strength. She understood that this obsession would not end with her death and she escaped. She ran from her beloved to save her child from a similar fate.

She gave birth to Silencia and secretly left her at a faraway orphanage, careful not to leave behind any clues that could lead to Daralis. She left her child with one last bit of her magic: a tiny gem, molded from her own magic. This stone would limit Silencia's fae side and only allow it to surface when the owner willed it to. This would protect Silencia from people who would want to use the girl for her powers. Daralis returned to her beloved after that, telling him she miscarried. Daralis died soon after that, the fae weakened by her pregnancy and captivity.

The tragic fate of the young fae caught the attention of Mother Nature. The fae always were the ones most connected to Mother Nature and thus the almighty entity took pity on the poor Silencia. Mother Nature watched over Silencia as she grew and developed into a gentle but strong young lady. It was when Silencia showed a strong affinity to magic, while still not awakened as a fae, that Mother Nature decided to make Silencia her heir.

==Fae==

The fae are a special type of fair folk, favoured by Mother Nature. They are a combination of wood nymphs, sirens and fairies. Every fae will have an obvious inclination towards one of those types of fair folk, allowing them to fit in with them. Their powers and appearance will be affected by this. For example, a fae with an inclination toward sirens will have an alluring and hypnotising voice as the sirens and that would be the source of her powers. Fae typically grow up looking very much like humans in their larval stage. In this larval stage, one does not have magical powers. Only when their fae awakens will they be able to properly use the magic of their kind. The awakening happens through a process called 'Metamorphosis' in which the fae surrenders themselves to the nature and residing in the cocoon that Mother Nature envelopes them with. After they mature in the cocoon, they burst out of it with newly grown wings. Usually they emerge while secreting pheromones, especially the females, since 'Metamorphosis' is also the moment where the fae come of age and can reproduce. The process is completely instinctive, the fae will feel Mother Nature's call when it is time for them to mature.

Title = Cupcakes and feels
|Summary = Silencia's making cupcakes, Minu
|Who = [[Minu]], [[Silencia]]
|Date = Febuari 15, 2016.
|Where = TASK Kitchen
|Log=
A delightfully sweet scent dances around the kitchen as Silencia does what she does best. Today she's making cupcakes! The oven is filled with trays that contain those sweet treats. At the moment, Silencia's busy washing the dishes. She's humming a cheery tune.

The little elf wandered through the TASK habitation deeply intent on the clip board in her hands. Today she is dressed with adorable librarian efficiency. Her hair is bound up tightly in a bun and she is wearing that snug little button down white blouse tucked into a very lady like red plaid skirt that comes primly to her knees. She pauses in the dining room on the way to the kitchen to scratch a few little notes on the paper before her. The sweet scent of baked goods tickles her nose and she pauses a moment blinking and pushes her glasses up her nose. Was that cupcakes?? Following her nose the elf wanders into the kitchen and pauses in the door way.

Silencia finishes washing the last of the dishes, drying her hands and picking up a dishtowel. Right at that moment, Minu walks in, catching Silencia's attention. She smiles and waves at the little elf. "Hey there! Were you drawn by the smell of cupcakes?" Silencia giggles lightly before putting away the bowl she had been drying. "You will have to wait just a little more though, they aren't ready yet!" Silencia's appearance is, in contrast to Minu, rather messy. Her hair is tied up in a messy bun and she is wearing an apron that was too big on her, probably stolen from Kotal.

Minu blinks those big golden eyes as she looks at the sight before her. Yes indeed, the apron is to big on Sil because its the kiss the cook apron Kotal always wears when he does his big group meals. It simply gives the little elf a very pointed reminder of Sil's place in TASK now. "Um..yes..the cupcakes...they smell really good. If your not careful you will end up with Ferra and Torr in here devouring them before anyone else gets a chance." The little elf smiles with a touch of shyness. She likes Sil, the fae lady has been nothing but nice to her , helping her shop, being friendly. Its not her fault the elf is conflicted by her own feelings. Its no ones fault after all, not like there was ever anything more then work and what she would guess is polite male/female camaraderie between the elf and the war god.

Silencia waves her hand dismissively and grins. "I can always make more!" Silencia finishes up the dishes and puts them away, finally able to turn and give Minu her full attention, right on time to see that shy little smile. Oh how adorable the little elf was! It takes all of Silencia's willpower not to run over and cuddle with Minu. Silencia takes off the apron and sets it aside, gesturing for Minu to come closer. "If you aren't busy, would you like to keep me company, Minu? It won't be long until the cupcakes are done.." Silencia smiles playfully, trying to tempt the elf to stay with cupcakes. Silencia was not dense like her chosen partner, she was aware that Minu held some conflict in her heart. She had heard about Minu possibly having feelings for Kotal, so the fae could guess what the problem was. She wanted to befriend Minu, but she couldn't help but feel a bit guilty about what happened.

The little elf stands there looking outwardly as she always does, all business and efficiency and yet there is something in those golden eyes that speaks of being torn, half wanting to stay and share company and half of wanting to bolt like a startled deer in the woods. "I, um...no I am not too busy. Just working on this weeks schedule for Rayne, well, the spread sheet so she knows who has done what recently, who should be on time off and who needs to have a little extra work to remind them not to slack off when things are easy. Just the usual. The pups are off training with Kotal so, I really do have some time I guess." as she steps further into the kitchen and sits her clip board on the small table before tucking her pencil behind one pointed ear.

Silencia smiles happily as Minu steps into the kitchen. "Wonderful! You'll be the first to taste the cupcakes then!" Silencia walks over to the little elf and grasps her hands, guiding her to sit with her near the oven holding the cupcakes. Silencia's expression and outward appearance was cheerful and bright as usual, but on the inside she was worrying about how to go about this. She peeks around the kitchen, luckily it was abandoned. Most of the officers were working around this time of day, so they had the kitchen to themselves. Silencia's violet eyes meet the Minu's golden ones and the fae smiles warmly. "There's something I've been meaning to talk to you about, Minu." Before she can continue, Silencia quickly peeks into the oven, checking on her cupcakes. When she returns, she pauses before grasping Minu's hand again and bowing her head. "I'm sorry. I really am." Silencia stays like that for a moment longer before bringing her gaze back to Minu, a weak smile on her face. "I'm the reason you've been less cheerful, aren't I?"

Minu lets herself be lead over closer to the oven and sits in the offered chair. She really can't help but feel a little shy around the lady, her out ward direct engagement both physical and emotional is new to the elf really. She has always been bookish and more into her studies and research then direct contact with others. Her many years in the Grand Archive only made it more so because there were few enough others she actively saw on a regular basis and most of them were others like herself, bookish beings with little interest in socializing. Twisted had taken some getting used to but she had made herself useful, her native organizational skills being needed gave her access to people and she could hide away in work if it got to much to handle. The little elf sat quiet while Sil checked the cupcakes then blanched nearly white at the lady's next words. "I...I don't know what you mean Silencia. You have been very kind, very helpful and pleasant." Her heart skips a beat and her pulse quickens, afraid she knows what this is about and fairly certain she should have bolted when she had the chance.

Silencia smiles knowingly, though there is not cheer in her smile. "You know what I mean." Silencia looks a bit worried about the little elf. Minu looked so panicked that Silencia wanted to hug her and tell her that she was joking, but this needed to be done. Silencia holds Minu's gaze as she speaks, her expression turning into a neutral one. "Don't try to explain your feelings away. Because they wont leave. Come on, Minu. Be angry at me." The sober expression fades away as she smiles once more. "I really do want to be friends with you, Minu, but if things stay the way they are, I don't think that will happen. Be honest, Minu."

Minu turns positively grey at Sil's words and she blinks and leans back "Really...I don't want to be angry with you. There isn't anything to be angry about. You didn't do anything to me. I don't know what feelings you think I have that should mean anything thing here." She squirms and her small hand shakes and she contemplates just shifting and poofing to owl and flying right on out of the room. But then Sil would still be here and she wouldn't be able to avoid the lady forever.

Silencia sighs and giggles helplessly. "I'm not as dense as Kotal is, sweety..." Before she was unsure about the rumors about Minu and her feelings for Kotal, but Minu's reaction was enough to confirm them. Silencia's voice softens, the sound almost a whisper. "Why did you never tell him?" Silencia would not back down, no matter how much she wanted to comfort the little elf with sweet lies, she needed to be strong. Minu had been part of the reason why Silencia had been able to gather the courage to confess to Kotal and she felt like she owed it to the elf to help her through this. Even though Minu was doing everything she could to deny everything.

Minu looks like she is gona be sick. Big golden eyes blink hard and she swallows. A few breaths are taken and she scrunches up her pert little nose and frowns hard. A guttural noise is torn from her throat and the little elf all but throws herself sideways out of the chair and onto her feet with an exasperated "By The Scribe!" The small elf starts to pace the far side of the kitchen, she can't hold still and she can't sensibly run away. "It makes no difference. What I may or may not feel doesn't mean anything. There is no basis for it, no reason other then some chemical reaction in the brain or..something. Kotal is a god, a war god. He is not an ordinary man and it is quite clear he holds me in no more affection then anyone else who works for him, otherwise you would not be in the place you are. He isn't exactly shy and if he wanted me in that way I am sure he would have made such clear. What has been is purely professional, he has never done more then be kind and polite as a leader would be, perhaps a little extra because we worked so close together when things were challenging. However he never gave cause for any sensible being to believe there would be more forth coming." She wrings her small hands and all but stomps as she paces and spills her thoughts. "it would be beyond churlish of me to hold anything at all against you." Oh yeah, all that is brainiac for "I dig him, he doesn't dig me, and now he has you."

Finally the little elf is being truthful! Silencia smiles relievedly before quickly reverting to a more sober expression. She quietly listens to Minu's rant. Only after she's done does the girl stand up and walk over to the elf, her steps slow and deliberate. "Then what is holding you back?" She stops as she's standing infront of Minu, facing her. "Why do you keep torturing yourself if a simple confession could liberate you?" It takes a moment for Silencia to meet Minu's eyes again, her expression a mixture of various emotions. "All that you summed up, I had thought the very same. He never gave me a reason to think he might like me as well. I shoved my feelings onto him and was lucky enough for him to accept me. Even now, I train until I'm falling apart just so I can be useful to him, because I feel afraid of being left behind. I understand your thoughts and feelings, because I've been there myself." Silencia sighs softly. "I want you to get angry at me because that will help you move on. I had heard that you had feelings for him before I told him of mine. It was part of the reason why I decided to tell him. I was afraid..." Silencia smiles softly and even gives Minu a little wink. "Nothing is childish in the matters of the heart. No one is around but you and me and I wont tell anyone. Let it all out."

The little elf goes quite still, almost panting though as she breaths quick and shallow. She shakes her head softly "I don't want to be mad. I want to be sensible. I want to not feel like I am going to vomit every time the team teases him about you in front of me and he gets that look on his face that says they are right. Me saying anything at all to anyone will make things worse. I work here, I have a place here. I am not strong and I can't fight but I can do what I do here, I can help by keeping his affairs organized and his work life tidy so he can be what he is and not have to try and be.ordinary. If I corner him and say to him I feel things, it will make working together impossible because he will get strange and uncomfortable around me. I think I would rather face Mr. Blacks stupid attempts at training for weapons then to have Kotal pity the poor little bookish elf. Besides. I have always got the feeling that Kotal was not the sort to spread himself around that way. Other wise there is a goddess also chasing him he could have." Her words are soft and resigned "We can be friends Silencia because you are a kind person and a good person. He cares for you and that is not a bad thing. Your goodness will help him, maybe balance him." One small hand reaches up to remove those gold rimmed glasses and she uses the others to rub her nose "By The Scribe, why must all this be so uncomfortable. Books are so much easier to manage then people."

Silencia smiles warmly at the elf and finally gives in to her urge to comfort. She gently tugs Minu closer and wraps her arms around the elf. "If you want to be able to move on, then do not fight against your feelings. Be sad when you're sad, be angry when you're angry. You are a sweet and hardworking person and I want to help you. Please allow me to. It is impossible to keep your feelings nice and tidy, sometimes you simply need to experience them. Feelings aren't like books, you can't just put them away." Silencia releases Minu and grins. "You can say everything you want to me. No one will get hurt or pitied, but you will still be able to say the things you want to say." That grin turns into a smirk as Silencia teases the elf lightly. "And don't think you can fool me by saying everythings alright, I am very perceptive about these things!"

Title = Visiting Ren
|Summary = Silencia visits Serenity's apartment and the two have a pleasant conversation.
|Who = [[Serenity]], [[Silencia]]
|Date = Februari 6, 2016.
|Where = Serenity's apartment
|Log=
Serenity slides from the elevator and drifts down to one of the rooms with a gentle ripple of the aquamarine muscle in the cloak of suspended water. "I'm afraid that many of the residents favor larger and more elaborately decorated than mine," Ren mentions, folding over to take the key card from the storage box atop the black disc of the field generator. (Do not try this bend at home if you have a backbone.) Ren straightens and swipes the key in the door. "Apparently, my simple interior design sensibilities can't make full use of having a seemingly unlimited ability to redecorate."

Silencia smiles and shrugs lightly at Ren's comment. "I don't really care for elaborate decorations... A home is a home, that's all there is to it." Silencia seems a bit excited, she's going to see Ren's apartment for the first time, so that was something to be excited about. "By the way, thanks again for having me over, I hope I'm not being a bother? I was just a bit curious..."

Serenity opens the door (which fortunately has a handle for easy grasping with damp fins) to reveal the small couch ahead and mirrored wall to the side, then slides out of the way to allow Silencia to enter. "No bother at all. It's not as though I was preparing snacks. I'm fairly sure that you wouldn't want those." Ren grins and gestures inward. "Perhaps sometime you will show off your apartment when you are happy with it?"
Silencia peeks curiously into the apartment before stepping in, already fascinated by how there is an entire apartment filled with water that does not spill into the little dry entryway. "To be honest, I haven't properly gotten myself an apartment. I've been staying with Kotal and the others..." She grins sheepishly. "I'm used to living with a large group of people cramped into a small home, so an apartment all to myself gets really lonely." She pokes at the water that's held back by the forcefield, always amazed by the technology available in this place. She peeks through the water and smiles. "From what I can see, your home is lovely! Is this forcefield a kind of technology that you brought with you from your homeworld?"

Serenity shuts the door behind Silencia and ripples back against the mirror to leave her room. Ren nods thoughtfully in reply to her living arrangements. "I'm accustomed to living in a city with a much higher population density than here, but we do still value some privacy between people who are not relatives." Ren adds, "I think that perhaps Kotal would prefer the fighters to live in the TASK apartments, too." Ren smiles at Silencia's latter remark. "It is the kind of technology, or at least a simulation of it," Ren agrees, shifting next to Silencia to park the field generator on the threshold of the living room. "The room and nearly all of its furnishings were created by the apartment from an advertisement that I had saved. The exceptions are the photo that I brought with me," Ren gestures toward the living room shelf, "and the print and flowers, gifts from Johann."
Silencia chuckles softly. "Well... I'm not exactly a fighter, am I?" At the mention of gifts, Silencia gasps and smacks her hand on her forehead. "I knew I forgot something! I was going to bring a gift!" Silencia grins sheepishly at Serenity. "Oh well, might as well get your opinion on it before bringing it. I found a rather pretty plant that thrives underwater, would you like me to bring it some other time?" The priestess pauses and tilts her head curiously. "Who is Johann? I don't think I've met him..."

"Field support, then?" Ren amends, then returns a smile at her gesture. "You didn't need to bring anything, but I would certainly enjoy one." With a motion of the trailing edges, Ren puts the environment suit in 'park' and ripples backwards through the overlapping forcefields into the living room. Despite the sharp boundary between air and water, Ren's voice is still clearly audible as it is with the portable forcefield. Released from the suit, Ren stretches both pairs of fins to a full six-foot span before relaxing in an easy ripple to 'stand' just inside the forcefield wall. Silencia's latter question, Ren grins and looks down. "Johann is one of the doctors at the clinic in town, a generally mild-mannered older fellow. He and I are in a relationship."

Silencia watches interestedly as Serenity slips from her suit to the inside of her apartment. This kind of technology never fails to amaze her. The mention of Ren being in a relationship with this Johann gets a very interested look from Silencia. Her lips curl up into a grin and she steps closer, almost touching the forcefield. "Oh my, Serenity, you have failed to mention that before! Tell me all about him!" She's as excited as a little girl, especially since Ren looks rather adorable when she mentions the man, she can't help but pry.

"Did I?" Ren says, looking up again as Silencia comes closer. Ren flows down closer to the floor and takes a slightly diagonal posture so as to be eye-to-eye with Silencia. "Well, he is enormously busy with work, so we can't spend as much time together as I would like," Ren explains, motioning out to the sides. "Johann is compassionate toward others and nearly as passionate about teaching medical skill as he is about using them. And though he lived in a particularly ugly war zone for some time prior to coming here, it doesn't seem to have dulled his quiet charm and optimism."
Silencia can't help but frown slightly when Ren tells her about how busy Johann is and that frown turns to concern when war is mentioned. "Oh my... it must've been difficult..." It is unclear if she's talking about them not being able to spend much time together or the work of a medic in wartime. "Allow me to give you a warning, I'm going to hug you now..." She slips through the forcefield and does as she promised. It is fortunate that she can swim, or else this would've been difficult. She slips her arms around Ren and gives the friendly mollusc a gentle hug. She can't help but marvel at the squishiness though, something that she loved about Ren from the moment she had met her.

Serenity nods thoughtfully. "I have great respect for maintaining idealism and practicality in a consistent way," Ren mentions. Silencia's latter remark gets a slight inward 'blink' of the eyes. Ren responds to the hug in a more passive way at first, 'wings' folding backwards against the mane of gills under Silencia's arms. Despite the usual fluid movements, it becomes clear with a little pressure that Ren is not limply squishy in the manner of gelatin dessert, but more dynamically squishy like the human tongue. The layers of muscle and Ren's shape shift under Silencia's grasp, firming again at the minimum size for keeping internal organs protected. After recovering composure, Ren grins and squeezes back using the lower portions of the fins not pinned by Silencia's arms.

Silencia grins happily at Ren, it has been a while since she had a proper hug! After a little while, she can't help but need more air, so she reluctantly releases Serenity and steps out of the forcefield, giggling softly. She is left just a little damp, but that is no problem for the priestess of the sun. A happy smile is on Silencia's face. "I'm glad I finally got to hug you!"

"Likewise," Ren replies cheerily, quickly returning to the usual shape with no ill effects to having the 'wings' bent backwards. "While Johann is happy to hug when properly attired, it isn't at all the same thing from him." Ren grins and waggles rhinophores toward her briefly before continuing. "I certainly wouldn't mind more friendly pats and pokes with others, but not everyone's culture is supportive of such." Ren motions a pair of fin edges toward her. "We have to practice our spoken comfort and spoken teasing more instead, no?"

Silencia giggles lightheartedly, already in a great mood. "I understand how you feel, I'm used to having lots of friendly physical contact, but here it seems that people tend to shy away from all that. Especially Rayne..." She laughs softly. "But I'm helping her get over that, so hopefully we'll have her on our side someday!" Silencia then grins playfully at Ren at that last little comment. "Oh, I do believe we should practice those skills... though I have a feeling that some people would still be very uncomfortable with that..." She stretches out and sighs happily. "Ahh, I feel energized now!" She settles down on the little couch for now, smiling at Ren. "How did you meet Johann and how did you two get into a relationship? I'm sorry if it seems like I'm prying, but I'm very curious..."

"Do continue to give hug warnings to Rayne and to strangers, or you may end up meeting Johann before I see him again," Ren cautions with a note of amusement. As Silencia lies down, Ren also shifts to lying on one side horizontally and perpendicular to her, taking up a position the same distance above the floor as the couch cushion. Ren considers her question for a moment before replying. "We came to know each other better just by frequently happening across each other in common gathering places, as well as elsewhere, like the bookstore. We don't share all our interests, but I feel like our reaction to the chaos here, imagining a better world and peaceful meane of achieving that, is similar." Ren motions toward Silencia. "He's stronger in the face of challenges to that, mind you."

Silencia grins at Ren's comment about hug warnings. "I have plenty of tricks up my sleeve to prevent such accidents! Nontheless, I would like to meet him though, he sounds like a really friendly guy." As Ren tells her about how she met Johann, Silencia can't help but smile warmly. "You two came together naturally then. How wonderful!"

"Tricks?" Ren remarks curiously. "I do hope that you can meet- outside of the clinic," Ren then agrees. In contrast to Silencia's lying down, Ren's position above the floor seems to require a slight effort to maintain, if perhaps an unconscious effort. The edges of the two pairs of fins gently twist and undulate to keep Ren in place. "If the way we came together was natural, what would be an artificial sort of beginning?" Ren asks with a note of amusement. Motioning to Silencia, Ren adds, "Attention-grabbing snacks, perhaps?"

Silencia smiles playfully and winks at Ren. "Did you forget I can make myself invisible when in nature? I'll use that to get myself out of trouble!" Her grin shows that she's just kidding though. Silencia sits up, gathering her feet underneath her in a comfortable seated position. Silencia blushes when Ren mentions 'attention-grabbing snacks', of course that reminded her of her own experience with romance. "I..I meant that the both of you were naturally compatible and got together as such!" Oh my, it seems Silencia gets rather shy when it involves this topic. "An artificial sort of beginning would be something along the lines of pretending to be someone you're not, or trying to make a relationship work with a lie. A natural connection is something that is strong and comfortable, that's why I feel that it's very wonderful..."

Serenity smirks and waves rhinophores at Silencia with her reaction, then nods to her clarification. As she sits, Ren shifts to 'kneeling' just above the floor with upper body twisted towards her. "I see. I thought that perhaps you meant something like an arranged marriage or being 'fixed up' with someone." Ren continues thoughtfully, "I might have been incredulous at the notion of you professing feelings for Kotal, instead of merely surprised, if I didn't have a highly improbable relationship myself." Ren shifts the 'wings' to a roughly rectangular shape with extrusions of 'fingers' and 'toes' at the corners. "At least you have the same sort of limbs."

Silencia blushes slightly at the mention of Kotal, the girl already smiling. "I know we're a rather unusual pair, but was it really that odd?" When Ren goes on to talk about her own unusual pairing, Silencia frowns slightly. "I don't think you need to worry about that. I mean, Johann likes you the way you are, right? He likes the you that happens to look a bit different than him. Isn't that more important?" Silencia giggles lightly "And the way you are now is very delightful to hug and cuddle with, so that's an advantage!"

"I have to say that is is 'that odd'," Ren replies, "but I'm sure that you would much rather that other people help youto notice similarities than to belabor differences that you are already aware of." Ren then nods as she goes on. "Yes, he does like me the way I am, even if he does seem surprised by that sometimes. I at least had experience with human people in videos, while I was the first and only fsst person he has seen." Ren grins and looks down. "He certainly doesn't seem to mind my athletic ability."

Silencia smiles helplessly, tugging on a strand of her hair absentmindedly. "I guess, like Rayne said, opposites attract..." When Ren continues, Silencia grins and nods enthousiastically. "See? You don't need to be exactly the same for attraction to happen! The differences make it more interesting even!" The mention of athletic ability allows Silencia to adopt a more teasing tone, the girl even wiggling her eyebrows. "Oohh, so I assume you have seduced him with your dancing then? My oh my Serenity, how daring!"

"I wouldn't go so far as to say 'opposites'. Perhaps 'complements'," Ren remarks. With her question, Ren shifts to hang higher but with most of the body pointed toward the back of the apartment, face remaining at the same level. "Hh...." Ren rasps for a moment before replying. "He and I both appreciate making difficult movements gracefully, even if our notions of 'difficult' are shaped by different experiences." Before returning to the previous posture, Ren briefly twists to 'stand' at the end of the couch; Ren wraps up in the fins to form a cylindrical shape and pinches in at the appropriate heights to suggest a waist and a neck. "I'm fairly sure that he doesn't imagine I have sexy legs, though."

Silencia nods smilingly. "Yes, complements... I like that." She seems to wander off in her mind, thinking about something that makes her smile. She snaps out of it and returns her attention to Ren, still smiling. "Seriously, the more you tell me about him, the more I'm thinking that you two were meant to be! What do you mean 'sexy legs'? That's the same as me going on about how I don't have sexy fins or something like that!" She reaches out to gently touch Ren, her caress so very careful. "It's surprising to me that you seem so worried about such trivial things, Ren. But I guess the realm of romance makes fools of us all..."

Serenity folds the edge of the fin to pat her fingers in return. "I joke about the legs because I don't know precisely what notions are going through his head, nor does he know my thoughts so," Ren explains. "That is, we don't use scientifically precise language to describe the nature of our physical attraction." Ren smiles and motions out to the sides. "I imagine that would be either unromantic or strange. Possibly both." Ren then gestures in Silencia's direction. "As for whether physical attraction is trivial, I would argue otherwise. Now, I'm not romantically in love with every attractive person, nor even with every attractive friend. But it's certainly somewhere in the mix of love along with compatible ethics, humor, and other things."

Silencia nods thoughtfully at the explanation, her expression sobering slightly. The talk about whether physical attraction is trivial or not makes Silencia perk up. "Oh, I didn't mean it like that... I meant that he already is attracted to you the way you are, so worrying about parts you do not have is trivial. There is no logic to attraction, you can try and find patterns and reasons, but there really is no logic behind it." Silencia grins slightly. "But both of us are very aware of that, aren't we?"

"I see now," Ren acknowledges. "Yes, I'll admit irrationality. But the work I'm trained in is all about finding patterns and reasons, distinguishing patterns that are just the right level of complexity from oversimplified and overcomplicated ones, and distinguishing imagined patterns from real ones." Ren grins and admits, "Speaking of unromantic, that is a terribly unromantic way of saying that I study why people dance..." Ren continues, "So, that colors how I see the world." Ren waves a fin edge through the forcefield into the air. "In any case, overcoming anatomy differences can be fun." Ren motions upward to the surface of the water a foot below the ceiling. "For example, there was originally only a tiny bit of air at the ceiling, but that seemed more than a bit awkward for air-breathers. We still haven't found a way for air-breathers to be underwater and talk at the same time, excepting a magical ability like Morgana's."

Silencia chuckles softly. "Not everything needs to be romantic! And I understand that that might influence you. I have the same thing with how I interact with people. I've spent my whole life taking care of children, so I sometimes tend to treat adults like I treated those children." She lets out a soft giggle. "But sometimes, those adults give me no other choice because they actually are acting like children..." Silencia seems thoughtful when the topic of breathing and talking underwater comes up. "Hmmm... that would be very convenient if we can think of something there..."

"That bit of your history is /very/ enlightening, from the point of view of someone who studies patterns in people," Ren remarks with a grin. "Of course adults and children are very different, but that seems a very useful skill here if you can communicate with people who don't yet share your ethics." Ren flutters a wing backward toward the living room. "Perhaps you'd like a short tour? It might even inspire you to think of a solution." Ren adds, motioning to her clothing, "By the way, I thought that you were going to wear a swimsuit."
Silencia shrugs with a playful smile. "I don't know if it's useful, but it is amusing at times to see how people react to being treated like a child. It is surprising how often it actually works to calm them down!" She nods smilingly at the mention of a tour. "The conversation was so good that I forgot about touring your home! Oh and I'm wearing a swimsuit underneath my dress, but I noticed that I'm simply left damp when I leave the forcefield, so I'll just keep my dress on. I can always dry it." Silencia winks playfully. "One of the perks of being Kotal's priestess!" Silencia gets up from the couch and takes a deep breath before stepping through the forcefield once more, floating near Serenity, waiting for the mollusc to lead her.

Serenity responds to her observation about behavior with an interested look and a nod. "Maybe I should ask Dorian if he can put this ability in a clothes-drying charm, for those times when I wasn't looking where I was going on the street," Ren remarks. After she enters the water, Ren waits for Silencia to surface before also flowing up to near the surface. The head, rhinophores, eyes, and some of the gills pop into the air gap, but the mouth stays below. Ren moves close to Silencia to rasp (which may be a bit difficult to hear through the strong muffling effect of even an inch of water), "I may have a bit of trouble hearing you in air. Do speak up, please."
Silencia is relieved that there is space to breathe, or else she would not be able to do much. She smiles and nods at Serenity, speaking with a somewhat louder voice. "Is this okay? Or should I go louder?" Whenever she notices that Serenity tries to speak, Silencia freezes so she does not accidentally make noises that might drown out Ren's voice. Silencia grins and motions toward Ren. "Lead the way!"

"Yes, that will do," Ren agrees. There is a bit of echoing in the 30cm air gap and a slight sizzling sound from the few bubbles that escape from the sheet-like flows of the curtain-walls. Ren makes a quick circle around Silencia without touching her directly (though strong currents can still be felt), then fluidly ripples over to the mesh hyperboloid 'couch' between the ceiling and floor. Ren pops up again there, hanging onto it with portions of one pair of fins. Ren waits for Silencia to stop swimming. "Here we have a fine living room that doesn't see very much living," Ren says with a smile. "A screen that sees more paperwork and books than movies." Ren motions to it. "The photo is one of my few possession from home, other than some clothing and an electric pot."

Silencia follows Ren with a smile, she rather liked having a swim for once. The interior already gets curious glances and she pops back up in the bit of air before Ren speaks. The photo of Serenity's family gets her attention especially, the girl even swimming over to take a closer look. She looks around for a bit before returning to the surface. "Is that picture of your family? How lucky you were able to bring along a picture of them!"

Serenity follows alongside Silencia a short distance away. Ren isn't performing any acrobatics at the moment, but the relatively open environment of the underwater room lets Ren show off more graceful movements than the small volume of the environment suit. Despite the obvious bulk within the mottled fluorescent orange and turquoise, Ren moves freely in any direction like a hummingbird, and the relatively weak muscles of the fins can work together to generate powerful currents. "Quite!" Ren agrees as Silencia surfaces. "Yes, those are my parents and my sibling Mirth. Obviously I was much younger in that picture- Mirth is in college now." Ren frowns and adds, "-if 'now' means anything across universes."

Silencia smiles as Ren explains who's who in the picture. "You looked so adorable!" She then sighs and swims over to Serenity, giving her friend another gentle hug before resurfacing. "I do think I need to say goodbye now, Serenity. I have a couple of things I need to do, mostly involving training. I think I should get the rest of the tour the next time I come." She chuckles and adds quickly: "And that time I'll have my gift with me!" She then swims over to the forcefield, stumbling a bit as she gets out. She wraps her arms around herself and a warm gold light shines from her hands. That light seems to dry up the last bits of dampness, leaving her nice and dry. Silencia glances at Serenity and waves. "Thank you for having me over, Serenity, you home truly is lovely!"

Title = Boogie Woogie
|Summary = Ren, Sunset and Silencia decide to have some fun in the dance club.
|Who = [[Serenity]], [[Sunset]], [[Silencia]],
|Date = Januari 25, 2016
|Where = UR: Dance Club
|Log= Serenity slips into the dance club first, where the sound system is plunking out a lively boogie-woogie beat in percussive piano and rhythmic bass. The dance floor isn't full, but those present have generally converged on a swing dance, some solo and some with partners. Then there are a few who seem to like their own culture's dances better and are doing less easily identified moves with shoulders, backsides, and feet. Ren flutters out with fin undulations already beginning to take up the rhythm. Ren ripples backwards to look back to the other two and motion them in. "Well, this will be a challenge. Leg and footwork are rather difficult when one hasn't legs or feet," Ren remarks with a grin.
Sunset idly slips off her leather jacket as she walks in, setting it off to the side. She doesn't need the extra weight or warmth while they're going to be busting moves. Or trying to, at least. "I'm probably not much better off," she replies to Serenity with a smile. "I'm more accustomed to singing or guitar than actually dancing."
Silencia hasn't been in the dance club before. She seems a bit out of place, she only knew how to sing and folk dances, so this was a completely new experience for her. Well, the entirety of Twisted is, so that's nothing new. She grins playfully. "A challenge for us all then, may the gods of dance be by our side..." That last part was said in a dramatic tone. Silencia just jumps right in, for now simply copying the movements of the other people dancing.

"Perhaps I can offer a few lessons someday to accompany this singing and playing?" Ren offers, looking from Sunset to Silencia. "Today," Ren suggests, sweeping a 'wing' outward towards the floor, "let's just see what happens when you are enjoying yourselves."
Serenity nods toward Silencia. "There is how you begin," Ren remarks approvingly. Finding a convenient spot of floor, Ren puts the black disc of the field generator in 'park' with a gesture of the trailing edges, then tries to adopt a more humanoid shape. It's a bit stylized, but one might be able to see it with enough squinting. Ren expands the fins but folds them in close to form a columnar shape, then pinches inward at the appropriate heights to suggest a neck and waist. The trailing edges hang down a bit below the tail end.
Ren starts with a swaggering strut (in fact staying in place), keeping the imaginary shoulders back and straight. Flutters in the fin edges resolve into more angular forms to suggest swinging elbows and knees beneath blue fabric, despite the fact that those bones clearly aren't present when seen from the other side of the fins.

While Ren may not have exactly the short of body parts for dancing, they do manage to ripple and flex in a similar manner. At least Sunset has seen dancing enough times to know how it generall goes, and does her best to try and follow the style without tripping over her own feet.
Silencia's movements are awkward and careful at first. The movements of the people around were so complicated and she had feared someone would fall multiple times now. Slowly but surely, her movements become more smooth and sure. She's now copying Ren's strut, grinning like a fool. Her dress dances around her as she moves around, though not always making the same movements as the others. She's really enjoying this! While Silencia starts to lose herself in the music, she takes a wrong step and trips, threatening to fall right on her face. One of the solo dancers manages to save her from embarrassement by swooping her up and twirling the girl around before depositing her on the floor with a smile. Silencia laughs and thanks the dancer before rejoining her companions.

Serenity extends a middle portion of the right fins to hang vertically, folding bunched portions in the shape of of an arm. Ren holds the simulated arm relatively steady, out toward an imaginary partner, while quickly moving the lower body. The motions are obviously unnatural to the usual sinuous flow of the fins- all angles, bounces and kicks. Ren tries to keep up the illusion of legs throughout it all, flashing out lower fin edges for the pants-shaking of forward kicks and keeping the edges in place while quickly bending the tail backwards for flops of rearward kicks. Sideways seems to necessitate distracting any watchers from the missing leg. The harder part for the humans doesn't seem to be any trouble for Ren- keeping the flailing below waist level separate from the rhythmic shoulder twisting up above. Noticing Silencia's save, Ren grins and extends an 'arm' to her, extruding some 'fingers' from the edge to mimic an open-palmed shake of the arm and raising motion. Sunset gets an encouraging smile and an upward and outward sweep of the 'arms', matches with a rhytmic twist at the waist and in the lines emulating thighs that would be difficult but not quite impossible for a human.

It's a good thing that Sunset is wearing a dress and tights rather than more typical 'teenage' street clothes. This probably wouldn't be very comfortable to emulate in a stiffer material like jeans. She manages to not fall on her face at least, having some natural grace to her. She's not quite keeping a perfect pace with the rhythm, but she's trying to her best.

Cheerful laughter, barely audible over the music, escapes Silencia as she gets into the music, no longer caring about whether her movements are the 'right' movements. She's facing Sunset, grinning while she struts in place, even managing to move in a way that suggests she could fall, but she doesn't. Suddenly her hand is grabbed and she's whirled around until she's facing the dancer from before. She seems surprised and the dancer just smiles as he holds just one of her hands and dances in place, allowing her to copy his movements easily.

Sunset is not left alone though! The dancer's friend, a cheerful looking blonde with a fedora, offers his hand to Sunset. If she chose to hold it, he would immediately pull her closer to twirl her around before settling in a simple strut, allowing her to adjust.

Having gotten into the moment Sunset didn't even notice Serenity had slipped away to tend to other matters. She returns Silencia's laughter with her own smile, then does a little twirl to get clear of the path as the priestess has a dance partner step in.

Only to find one offering her similar assistance as well. She takes the offered hand with one of her own, while grabbing the ruffle of her skirt with the other and making a short courtsey in return. Then gets twirled and swept back into the dance. The simple step gives her a chance to adjust, and to some degree, it's actually a bit easier to dance with someone than it is to watch and follow individually.

Silencia's dancer seems to mirror Silencia's excitement, his face quickly twisting into a goofy grin as he dances with the priestess. He twirls and throws her around as if she weighs nothing, making the skirt of her dress dance around her as well. Silencia has a hard time keeping up, but she's having too much fun to care.

Sunset's dancer seems to have a completely different style. His moves are laid-back and smooth, allowing Sunset to follow along easily. He smiles before swooping her off her feet, holding her by her waist. "Keep yourself stiff as a board now!" His voice is barely audible over the music, but because she's close, Sunset would be able to hear him clearly. He twirls her around his own body with a grin, a move that would make her fall out of his arms if she went limp. He then lets her land on her feet before grasping her hand once more, his lips always smiling.

Sunset lets out a quick squeak of surprise as she's quite literally swept off her feet, but catchs on quickly and tenses up as she's told. Around she goes, then gets slung back to the ground. She staggers a step from the change in positions, but is quick to grab his hand and get pulled back into the dance once more. The other hand makes a quick swipe to brush some now dislodged hair out of her face, but she's smiling back to him. "You're really good at this."

Silencia's dancer does not let the priestess rest for even a moment, leading her to do more and more complicated movements. Silencia obviously has troubles with keeping up, even stepping on him a couple of times, but he does not seem to care.

Sunset's dancer grins and tugs the girl's hand, making her twirl around infront of him until her back lands on his chest. He grins down at her, leaning over her slightly to look her in the face while she has her back to him. "I'm only as good as the flower I dance with!" And again he swoops her off her feet, this time throwing her into the air before catching her, holding her by the waist. He lowers her slowly, his hands still around her waist. The music is dying down, signaling that it's coming to an end.

Silencia makes a wrong step and trips, the other dancer falling along with her, since he's holding on to her. They crumble unceremoniously to the ground, the two of them laughing out loud, mainly because of adrenaline. Silencia's cheeks are bright red, having worked up quite a sweat with that dance. Sunset's dancer smiles down at Sunset, not yet letting her go. "I've enjoyed our dance..."

Sunset's eyes widen as she's tossed in the air, that was even less expected than the twirling and spinning around his body was! But she's not in the air long enough to actually panic, and fortunately she's got a good partner to catch her apparently. She does let out a soft "whew" once she's back on the ground, briefly leaning against her improvised partner as the music is dying down. "Dancing isn't my strongest suite, so thank you. I was just following your lead though."
Sunset's partner chuckles and twirls her around one last time, making her face him, holding her right hand. He places a soft kiss on the back of that hand before bowing smoothly. "Always a pleasure to dance with a lady!" He notices Silencia and his friend on the floor, the two of them not making any movements to get up. He laughs while he directs Sunset's attention to them. "Seems like they had a more passionate time though... I'm afraid your poor friend can't even get up from exhaustion!"

Silencia and her dancer are lying on the floor, next to eachother, both of them smiling like idiots. They're panting and not even trying to get up, obviously very tired.

Sunset glances in the intended direction, and then laughs softly. "That just means they had a good time I'd hope!" She walks over and crouchs down next to the two, resting hands on her knees to brace herself. "You two going to be okay or do I need to call a fire department for the heat you lit up the dance floor with?"
Silencia laughs weakly and pushes herself up. She hadn't noticed how tired she got! She grins at her dance partner and he grins back, also sitting up. The two give each other a high five and they get up. Silencia offers her hand to Sunset to help her get up from her crouch. "This guy over here," She indicates the dancer that had been throwing her across the dancefloor. "doesn't really know the term 'tone it down'..." The dancer just grins and steals her hand to place a kiss on the back of it, much like Sunset's dancer had. "But your body was screaming for me to go crazy, how could I refuse?" He then releases the hand and bows. "My name is Aiden by the way, it was a pleasure to dance with you!"

Sunset's dancer chuckles as he joins Sunset, not interrupting the conversation. When Aiden introduces himself, he also bows and introduces himself. "And I am Kayne."

Sunset accepts the support getting back to her feet, only for the other dancer to take her hand in a similar greeting as his friend had. "I'd dare say the pleasure was ours for having such good leads. My name is Sunset Shimmer." Idly she brushes some of the dislodged hair back out of her face again. "That was definately quite the ride."

{{2014Profile|
|Image=Silencia.jpg
|Name=Silencia
|Series=Original
|Threat=Civilian
|Class= Fairy in Disguise
|Alignment=
|Gender=Female
|Species=Half Fae, half human
|Age=22
|Birthdate=April 13
|Height=
|Weight=
|Short=A black haired girl with gentle violet eyes
|Desc= The girl before you is rather small in stature. If one looked with care, they would see that she does have some muscle tone in her arms and legs, suggesting a surprising strength from the slim limbs. Two violet eyes, her gentle nature peeking through them, take the attention in her heart-shaped face. Her pale skin is contrasted by her jet black hair, that reaches down to her lower back. Around her neck a thin silver chain supports a small purple stone that gives off a soft shine every time her magic is used. She is dressed in a simple white dress that reaches down to her knees. An observant eye would see that the nature around her (if there is any) seems to react to her presence, though that reaction is usually very subtle.
|Skills= At the moment, she can only perform ‘pretty’ magic. Little tricks that are mainly designed to entertain and soothe. Summoning butterflies with her touch and allowing flowers to bloom with her voice are her forte. Her voice also has a soothing quality to the ones listening, but she is not aware of this and the effects are minimal because of that. Her emotions seem to affect her magic greatly, strong emotions will affect her surrounding, mainly the nature around her will react to her state of mind. This has a similar effect on the necklace she always wears; it seems to shine a weak little light whenever she uses her magic.
The primary source for her magic seems to be the nature around her, or Mother Nature. Her connection with Mother Nature is slightly more than a source for her magic, at times it seems like the nature around her actively tries to protect Silencia.

==Background==
Silencia never knew her last name. She grew up not knowing of her bloodline, even though it was something that assisted her all throughout her life. She grew up in an orphanage where she quickly assumed the role of an older sister to the other children. She would read stories to them, comfort them and love them in place of the parents they did not have. The abilities of her kind aided her with this. She realised that her state of mind and her will was able to affect her surroundings. Every time she focused on the image, little butterflies emerged from her hands, earning the excited gasps of her fellow orphans. A soft hum from her lips was able to make closed flowers bloom. That was the extent of her abilities, but it was enough for her. She was able to make the others smile and that was the greatest magic of all. She was perfectly content in her life; the children were her life.

That life would quickly be thrown into chaos. Her town, small and gullible, was gripped with fear for witches. This fear stemmed from the church and grew because of an illness that ran through nearby towns. The townspeople were convinced that it was the work of witches and that their little town would be targeted if they did not take measures to ‘protect’ themselves. Many people knew of Silencia’s abilities, so it was natural for them to target her. She was oblivious to the danger that lurked, until the townspeople stood at the door of the orphanage, ready to take her. The other orphans knew she was not what they thought she was, so they helped her escape. Silencia ran, barefoot and carrying nothing but the clothes on her back and the necklace around her neck, into the woods. Her last memories of her hometown are stained with tears and fear.

Silencia’s bloodline is that of Fae. Being a mixed blood of Fae and human, she is physically stronger than a normal Fae, but has the magical potential of the Fae. She does not know this, but as her understanding of her bloodline grows, so will her abilities. Her will is going to be a strong ally in fulfilling her potential, because she cannot learn without will.
The world she’s from is a fantasy town named Arendylle and it’s set in medieval times. Magical creatures exist in fairytales, but most of the normal people do not know that magical creatures are among them. Some, like Silencia, don’t know they are one of them.
