Two Stars [Video]

[sylvanguard]

[Guess who isn't amused? That's right, her. The reason for her rather annoyed look is because she is now sporting a set of pointed ears that are slightly bigger than her former human ears. Even if she got creative with her hair, its almost certain the tips would peak out.]

Okay not amused. Gabriel this is all your fault! First you rock up with pointy ears and now look! Ears like yours!

[She turns her head so that her ears are more prominently displayed.]

What am I going to do?

[The last question is more rhetorical and is muttered to herself. She might be starting to freak out. Then suddenly looking up she furrows her brows slightly.]

I guess the better question is how do you tell you're family you're different?

Holy crap it's true.

I wish it wasn't. Why couldn't this happen to my sister? She is the attention hog.

[arrowpoint]

Well that sucks. I hope nothing like that happens to me. At least nothing major, I don't want to start turning colors or anything.

[sylvanguard]

Bright blue might look good on you? Or maybe green? [She is trying to lighten the mood, and it's rather painfully obvious here.]

Well whatever happens to you, I hope you handle it better than I initially did. Burying my head in the sand hasn't worked out so far.

[arrowpoint]

If I had to pick a color it would probably be green, actually. Nothing neon though.

[A laugh.]

Bet you could have done it literally too. What was your name again?

[sylvanguard]

Somehow that doesn't surprise me! It's Ariel. Ariel Boisvert. There is no point in hiding behind a fake name since I already introduced myself before bragging about bow skills.

[arrowpoint]

Bow skills? Is that a new thing for you or did you do that before all this mess?

...Liam, by the way.

[sylvanguard]

I've had it awhile but it was something that did pop up out of nowhere.

[arrowpoint]

That sounds pretty cool, actually. All I got was a memory, and not even a good one.

[sylvanguard]

The kind of memory that gives you nightmares? Or the more generic boring kind of memory?

[She still hasn't remembered anything about her past yet, so she is really curious.]

[arrowpoint]

Somewhere in between, I guess?

[He frowns.]

It looks pretty boring in my head, but it kinda makes me feel sick to my stomach, or something.

[sylvanguard]

Just what was it then?

[arrowpoint]

Well, there's this ring on a stone table, and it looks like a wedding ring, but I can tell that it's not. It's really creepy.

[sylvanguard]

[Ariel can't hide her puzzled look as she arches an eyebrow at him silently, waiting for more of an explanation, beyond a creepy wedding ring.]

[arrowpoint]

[Liam shakes his head.]

No, really, that's it. Just that ring on a table... it just... ugh.

[He makes a disgusted face.]

[sylvanguard]

Maybe you were about to go through an arranged marriage or something and that ring represented everything you hated? [Shrug. So helpful.]

[arrowpoint]

[Very serious look.]

This was not a wedding ring, I'm telling you.

[sylvanguard]

Okay, okay. It was just a suggestion. I'm not in your head so I can only go off how you describe it, You said it looked like wedding ring before, so I went with it.

Ring of power as a wedding ring... horrible thought.

[arrowpoint]

Lets just drop it okay?

...I'm sorry you've got ears to deal with.

eheheheh /insert wolf-head laugh

[sylvanguard]

[Ariel makes a placating gesture as she nods.]

Consider it dropped. The ears aren't so bad I guess? It could have been worse.

I Melkor, take thee Sauron...

[arrowpoint]

Yeah I've seen a couple of really weird looking people downtown, but I've never actually met one. Could be more obvious.

OH MY GOD

[sylvanguard]

One of them is named Julian, he is a half bird man? Really a nice guy once you get to know him. very friendly.

If anyone here had any objections, speak now or forever hold your peace... ALL THE OBJECTIONS.

[arrowpoint]

Bird man? Really? Like, with wings?

I OBJECT

[sylvanguard]

Yup. And bird feet too. Surprised you haven't seen him before now. He doesn't really hide.

Just think how much more peaceful the world would have been without that wedding...

[arrowpoint]

I might have seen him on the news, but... man, it's another thing to hear from somebody else that's it's real.
