Chhrp~!

Gaeal.

Gaeal.

Why do I sometimes mix it up with Gaeael

It’s my own damn last name

It’d face palm at my own mistakes if I wasn’t afraid i’d gouge my eyes out

You ever look at your own family name and think ‘Damn. That’s a lot of vowels.’

Heya Danica!

Neat last name. Strider. Sounds like somethin an Elf or somethin like that would have.

Fantasy’y.

Anyway. Disregarding expired time units, as if that were a thing, how have you been?

Striders are about as fantasy-like as you get, sweetheart.  Unfathomably cool and schooled hard in the graduatin’ class of ironics anonymous and sword-carryin’ to boot.

But beyond that, I’m havin’ a grand old time what with my temporary status as a vampire.  How about yourself?

Enjoying a grand ol’ time as a Harpy

Which is what I am all the time

Caw Caw and so on

Other than that? Sitting in a giant tree on a magical computer in a nest filled with shiny objects I collected while typing to you.

That is what i’m doing. Right now.

Typing with talons is hard.

windyharpy:

Yeah, he was cool. I heard he was a Lord that was also a Mage or something? I think his named started with a B, and his last name was Winters or Winter or something cold like that. B…B…Winters…?

Hm. I’m sure it’s not important.

I can swim! I mean, I can swim a little. I prefer stickin to the surface myself, ‘cause y’know, feathers get heavy when wet, especially when you’re a bird that ISN’T used to the sea…

We should definitely do the swimming thing though!

Yeah Aliel still isn’t letting go of that hug, giggling a little herself. She doesn’t get many hugs either.

> Rose reluctantly pulls out of the hug. Grabbing Aliel’s hand she leads her towards the water. Luckily they don’t have far to walk. <

Great! There’s a really nice shallow area we can swim at so you don’t have to go out too deep!
If you’re not used to the sea though… Well there’s a lot of water! It might be a bit overwhelming at first. The water is really beautiful though I think you’re going to like it!

Aliel tapped her chin with a clawed hand, looking into the water. She had to of been careful of those razor shop talons earlier when Rose took her hand. Nodding, Aliel smiled and approached the water, getting knee deep.

Knee? Did she even have knees? Such questions would be better left to the biologists. The Xeno-Fantasy Biologists. Were Harpies considered aliens? Truly a mystery.

Her leg feathers were wet. Fun times.

She looked back at Rose and smiled.

The waters nice. I like it! It’s not cold like lake water usually gets either!

These hours taste stale and old, like they’re after there expiration date.

But it’s a good show, i’m sure, so i’ll stick with it!

Heya there, I’m Aliel Gaeal

They’re about five hours past their expiration date, so yeah, accurate.  But if you catch during its normal hours it can be pretty entertainin’.  Danica Strider, at your service, Aliel.

Heya Danica!

Neat last name. Strider. Sounds like somethin an Elf or somethin like that would have.

Fantasy’y.

Anyway. Disregarding expired time units, as if that were a thing, how have you been?

damedanicastrider:

Welcome to the afterhours, nightbloggin’ version of the show, darlin’.

These hours taste stale and old, like they’re after there expiration date.

But it’s a good show, i’m sure, so i’ll stick with it!

Heya there, I’m Aliel Gaeal

> Screech loudly. Dive bomb a poor defenseless imp and hurl them from a mountain.

> All in a days work for Princess Gaeal.

windyharpy started following you

She nodded again and smiled.

I know. I’m used to evadin dangerous stuff though. I even almost got ate by a dragon once! Heehee.

That was scary…

I kinda know what that’s like. I used to have a home, but now I just kinda wander. I still have a territory I come back to defend and kick out other harpies when they decide that it’s cool to try and mess with my stuff, but other than that I just sorta migrate a lot aimlessly.

Not really by choice, but if I stayed back where i’m from, i’d never meet anyone.

A Dragon? well there aren’t as many Dragons around here as much. There are still a few.

One of my best friends is a Dragon.

I see! Well I can understand wandering around and exploring  All of it can be very fun.

I’m sure you will meet lots of people, just as long as you are careful.

You think he might try to eat me? That’d suck. Gettin eaten.

I hope he’d be down with bein pals with me!

Exploration is dangerous but fun. I get in lots of scraps all the time, but I figure I get stronger for it too.

I already beat like five other harpies from my generation that aspired for leading the flock! Ehehe

windyharpy:

Hehe, I guess dragons can be kinda rude sometimes, huh?

> Giggling, Aliel walked right up to Rose and gave her a hug.

Bein lonely sucks. And I think i’ll take you up on that offer when I can. The way I get around’s kinda convoluted…I have to look for these weird portals through space and time that only open at certain times…I think that space god made em, the one I told you about?

He was really into making portals to everywhere!

They are! I thought Lucille would be wise but she was just a little immature troublemaker!

> Rose hugs Aliel tightly, and starts giggling a little when the feathers tickle. She doesn’t let go though. This is the first hug she’s gotten outside of her family members and boy is it exciting! <

Yay! I can’t wait to have you over! Can you swim? We have a lot of water on my island and I love to swim! I’d love to have a swimming partner.
I have a transportalizer myself! It’s kind of like a portal maker, but it only travels between other transportalizers. Your portals *do* sound convoluted, but useful!

This space god sounds like a cool guy!

Yeah, he was cool. I heard he was a Lord that was also a Mage or something? I think his named started with a B, and his last name was Winters or Winter or something cold like that. B…B…Winters…?

Hm. I’m sure it’s not important.
