Feb. 7th, 2005 01:51 pmIris stands in the kitchen, making herself a cup of coffee. She hums to herself as she adds cream to the hot beverage.
Peeking around the edge of the doorway, Ember lays on her stomach, watching the winged human as she moves about. The little elves' eyes are glued to the wings.
A strange animal approaches the elf girl. It looks at her and makes a growly puppy noise.
Ember's head turns, expecting to see a cub. Instead, she sees the strangest animal in the world. She jumps, bumping the wall. "Eee!"
The platypus scuttles under the table, hiding in the shadows. "Don't worry, she won't hurt you." Iris turns around and smiles at the elf child and platypus.
Ember is now peering under the table at the platypus. "What is it?"
Iris smiles again and kneels down by the elf child. "That would be a platypus. Her name is Maeve." She smiles gently at the girl. "And what's your name?"
Ember looks up from peering under the table. "Ember..." She looks at the lady's wings again. "Why do you have wings?"
Iris chuckles quietly. "Because I was born with them? And they help me fly across the sky."
Ember continues to stare at them. A small hand reaches out to touch them.
Smiling, Iris turns around so that Ember can reach them better.
Ember runs her hand along the fine feathers. "Ooo. Soft!" She looks up at the winged lady. "What's your name?"
Iris smiles. "My name is Iris." By that time, Maeve has come out from under the table and is watching Ember cautiously.
Ember notices the platypus and hold out her hand toward. "I won't hurt you. I promise!"
Maeve looks at Ember some more, then scuttles closer, close enough for Ember to touch her.
Ember goes from petting Iris' wings to petting the platypus. "I'm sorry I scared you. Forgive me?"
Maeve makes happy growly puppy noises to the petting.
Ember giggles.
At that moment, Echo comes into the kitchen. "Iris? Have you seen Yamino?" She blinks when she notices the little girl petting Maeve on the floor. She smiles brightly. "You must be Ember."
Ember looks up at the young human. She blinks. "You smell like Yamino."
Echo blushes really hard.
Iris just chuckles.
