Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:01 pmLaura was settled in at a table, munching on some dinner. She was flipping through some things on her phone and making assorted faces, which for Laura meant *actual* faces.

Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:06 pmEventually she might notice that somebody is standing behind her, holding a tray filled to the brim with plates of food, staring at her wings, entranced.

Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:13 pm"If you have a question, you can ask," she said, glancing over her shoulder.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:16 pm"Your wings are really pretty." she says.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:17 pm"Thank you. Most of the time they just get in the way." She motioned to the seat on the other side of the table from her.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:27 pmIt takes Teri a while to get what Laura means. "Oh! Thanks." she says, walking around and sitting down, though she's still kind of eyeing Laura's wings. Possibly. It's hard to tell where exactly she's looking with her compound eyes. "Teri Napliotis."

Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:35 pm"Laura Weston. I think we've met once, but it's been a while."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:39 pm"We did? Sorry, sometimes we forget things." she says, starting to shovel food in her mouth.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:41 pm"Like I said, it's been a while and it was only in passing." She flexed her wings out so Teri could still look at them if she wanted.

"Do they work?"
"Do they work?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 5:46 pm"They do, but I get tired if I fly for too long. Still, it's nice to be in the air every once in a while. It's a little cold outside to be using them though."

Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 6:07 pm"The outside is awful. Winter's much nicer back in Greece."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 6:09 pm"I'm from Canada, so I can't really claim nicer weather."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 6:15 pm"Brrrr. Do you get lots of snow back home?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 6:20 pm"More than others in some places, but generally yes."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Tue Jun 10, 2014 6:29 pm"Hopefully it won't snow here or we won't be able to go outside much."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 8:06 am"All you need is a good winter coat and you should be fine."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 12:10 pm"But that's just not the same as being outside as ourselves."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 12:11 pm"Okay, now I get the feeling you're not talking about the two of us collectively."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 12:14 pm"Oh, no no, we're just talking about us." she says, pointing at herself.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 12:16 pm"Any particular reason you refer to yourself as plural?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:16 pm"Yeah, cause there's lots of us." she smiles and reaches into her hair, her hand coming back carrying a huge locust.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:18 pmLaura quirked an eyebrow, "Okay, this is going to sound really insensitive, but is there a reason you're keeping a really big bug in your hair?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:26 pm"Because it's one of us." she says.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:28 pmLaura seemed to be trying to process that. "So you're a collection of large grasshoppers?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:37 pm"Yes!" she beams. "Well, they say we turn into a swarm of grasshoppers, but they're not gone when I'm like this. We're still that way in our head." she says, pointing at her skull.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:39 pm"Interesting," she says. "So you said you were from Greece?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:42 pm"Yeah, but they didn't want us there anymore."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:53 pm"That sucks."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Wed Jun 11, 2014 1:59 pm"Yeah, but here we get as much food as we want and people here are nicer." she smiles.
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 9:10 am"Well, there is that, I suppose."
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 12:03 pm"We miss being able to just go where we want to, though. Not that we're locked up here, but living in the mountainside felt... freer? Is that a word?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 12:07 pm"If it isn't, it should be. Do you not go down to Maldon?"
Re: I13DT - Fairy Land
Posted: Thu Jun 12, 2014 12:23 pm"Of course, but it's not the same. Everything here is towns or farmland."
